Paris

Adrianna looked to her twin brother, but quickly turned her glance and gave a shrug. "I'm fine"

Of course she knew Aaron would that was a lie. Sometimes she thought he knew her better than she knew herself.

She just wasn't good admitting she needed to talk.

New York City

Empire State Building

Samara disappeared, entering Blake's body once more and giving him a bit of his powers back. While she was no longer around the small boy could still harness her powers if need be.

McCall Residence

Ryan grinned, moving in and kissing the woman. "I'm glad you think that....And I believe we were talking business...Or pleasure. Eh, either is fine with me.

Streets

"Ugh...Feels like I just got blasted with my own powers" Joyce groaned, clutching Sage's arms as she gathered herself. "Something must be using a lot of power around here...Or someone."

Flashback

Melanie was a bit bothered with Galv's lack of faith in regards to his dad, but the girl didn't press the topic. Instead she allowed Elizabeth to enjoy the next few days with her father. It seemed as if everyone was surprised he was staying around this long, and with each passing day Melanie grew more and more curious about the man. She wanted to sit down and talk with him, but was afraid it would appear to Galv that she was fraternizing with the enemy.

But still...Melanie had so many questions about him...And Galv. The red-head rarely talked about his past and his family outside Elizabeth...

Melanie walked into the house after pulling the graveyard shift at the cafe she worked. It was only about 4am, so she doubted anyone would be up.

-Waterfront Apartments-

Aaron frowned for a moment, knowing his sister was lying, but assumed for now there was a reason, and would ask her later. Now wasn't really the best time.

“Alright then,” he simply said, nodding, “Just be careful sis.”

Aaron then turned his attention to Chloe, walking over to her, “And you're okay too, right?”

New York City

-Empire State Building-

Blake wavered again, stumbling forward, trying to focus. He knew he needed to get out, but he was tired...

The door to the stairwell burst open, and Blake paused, seeing his father. He was there, standing there...

“Dad!” Blake shouted, and Galv darted forward, scooping his son up, holding him tightly.

“Blake!” Galv said, “Your mother and I were so worried...”

-McCall Residence-

“Pleasure sounds more fun right now...” Lily smirked, kissing him back.

-Streets-

Sage frowned, looking around, “Do you think it might be someone in your family?”

Flashback

Galv was asleep in a chair, having waited up for Melanie, but found himself having fallen asleep.

There were some sounds in the kitchens, and Samuel stepped out, sipping a cup of tea.

“Oh, hello Melanie,” Samuel said, “Galv was trying to stay up for you, fell asleep. Figured it was good for him, he has his own job tomorrow. Or later today, I guess...”

He shrugged a little, “Don't need much sleep myself, because of my ability... Errr... want some tea? There's some hot water ready still.”

Chloe smiled "A little sore in the morning, but overall fine" she said.

New York City

Empire State Building

"You found him!"

Yup, Elizabeth had been trailing Galv this whole time. The girl rushed over, loosing her footing for a moment when the building shook. Apparently something had just exploded.

Streets

Joyce gave a little nod, rubbing her head "Though I can't tell where it's coming from...Usually I can track dad....And even Blake sometimes."

She just needed to feel a big burst in power and she would get some kind of idea.

Flashback

Melanie jumped a bit when Samuel stepped out of the kitchen, holding a cup of tea. She was VERY surprised anyone was up at this hour.

"O-Oh! S-Sorry I didn't think anyone would be up" she said immediate, a blush on her pale cheeks.

“Galv was trying to stay up for you, fell asleep. Figured it was good for him, he has his own job tomorrow. Or later today, I guess...”

Melanie smiled, looking over to her boyfriend, passed out in a chair. She felt a bit bad that he stayed up so late.

“Don't need much sleep myself, because of my ability... Errr... want some tea? There's some hot water ready still.”

Melanie smiled, giving a small nod. "Tea would be wonderful." she said, sitting following Samuel back into the kitchen. She was silent for a few moments before she decided to speak up. "I'm really glad you decided to come visit, Elizabeth seems to be having a wonderful time with you around"

-Waterfront Apartments-

“Glad you're okay,” Aaron said, smiling to Chloe now, coming down from the adrenline rush from the fight now, shaking his head a little and stretching.

New York City

-Empire State Building-

“Elizabeth!” Galv yelled as he saw his sister trip. He hurried forward, carrying Blake still, “Elizabeth, are you okay? Come on, we have to get out of here...”

-Streets-

Sage frowned a little, then had a thought, “...What if it's someone else? What if you can't pinpoint it because it's someone you're not use to? I mean... other people might have powers, right...?”

Flashback

Samuel fixed Melanie up a cup of tea, handing her the cup and taking a seat at the small table in the kitchen, sipping his own.

“I don't need sleep,” Samuel said, “So I'm often up. I can sleep, it's just... I'd rather not...”

Because whenever he closed his eyes he saw her.

Samuel stared off into the distance for a moment, before turning his attention back to Melanie.

“Err... right, 'Liz... She does. It's good to see her and Galv again. I know Galv doesn't think too highly of me, but... I can't really blame him,” Samuel said, taking another sip of his tea.

“Galv took to his sister like a duck to water,” Samuel said, “Always watched out for her, taught her some about their spark since their... their mother wasn't around anymore...”

Another long pause from Samuel, as he looked into the distance, before managing to break out of whatever trance he was in.

“So what are you and Galv's plans? Elizabeth tells me you two are going to get married, but I haven't seen any rings,” Samuel then said, turning the conversation back to Melanie. “Galv's incredibly smitten with you, you know. He'd try and swim to England and back if you asked him to...”

"Do you think there could be someone else out there with powers like my family? she asked.

Hopefully there weren't any Nazis out there with powers like her family.

Empire State Building

"I'm fine" Elizabeth said, pulling herself back to her feet and looking up at his brother. When he suggested they leave the girl blinked. "What? We can't just leave we have to find out what's going on! Since when do you back down from stuff like this?"

Obviously Elizabeth was still in her adventurous phase. She also had no children to worry over.
Flashback

Melanie gave a little laugh, not surprised at all that Elizabeth was telling Samuel that she and Galv were getting married. "I love him so much, really I do....And he actually did ask me....But I just got out of a kinda bad relationship and i'm trying not to move too fast" Melanie explained. "I didn't want to say yes right away in case it was only because I felt obligated to...I wanted to give myself a bit of time to think"

Melanie sipped on her tea, staring at the man in front of her. She could tell the features that Glv had got from his father, and the ones that he must have had from Levina.

"If you don't mind me asking, what was Galv's mother like?" she asked suddenly.

[Streets]

Sama frowned and glared at Jeremie. He pulled Kimi to the side, out of earshot, and then quickly whispered something to her. She immediately shook her head.

“No. Effing. Way.”

“Please? This is important to me! I need your help!”

“F*** you.”

“I’ll give you ten bucks.”

“Make it two hundred and you have a deal.”

“Two hundred!? Kimi, that’s highway robbery!”

“No, highway robbery would be me sticking a gun to your throat and stealing your wallet. Look, you want my help, the price is two hundred clams.”

“Ugh. Fine. I’ll owe you, just, please…”

“Alright… but if you don’t pay me by Tuesday I’m breaking your kneecaps and throwing you in the Hudson.”

With their conversation finished, Kimi took a deep breath. She grabbed a flask from her boot and took a long swig of courage, before turning and walking over to Jeremie and slinking her arm around his shoulder.

“Heeeeey… guy. You and me are gonna pose a couple tonight.” Kimi said through gritted teeth.

Sama sighed. In 1938, two hundred bucks was an insane amount of money… but it was the only way he had to keep Jeremie’s grubby hands off Crystal.

[Paris]

With the ninjas having run off in the smoke, Oliver looked around to make sure they were gone. He frowned, seeing that they had somehow taken the injured and the dead along with them.

“Damn… ninjas are as scary as the stories make them sound.” Oliver frowned. Then he turned back to Adrianna. He gulped. “Oh… well… actually I’m looking for someone. A fellow MI5 agent… and, truth be told, he’s supposed to be connected to your family…”

[Inside]

“Satomi, you shouldn’t have come here at all.” Musashi frowned. “It’s dangerous!”

“Aww… who cares about that?” Satomi shrugged. “Listen, listen! I want to help!”

Musashi shook his head. “No way. You’ll get in trouble.”

“I knew you’d say that… which is why I already did what I wanted to do!” Satomi giggled. “There’s a ship coming into a harbor up in Calais. Your Sakura Unit is on board!”

Musashi’s jaw dropped. “W-What!? How the hell did you arrange that?”

“Don’t worry about it.” Satomi shook her head. “I told the crew that we were supposed to be sending it to Kojiro, on dad’s orders, but then I had it changed to a different, unmarked ship. It’ll be in Calais, but I don’t know for how long. You should either get up there, or get someone to pick it up for you.”

Musashi sighed. His sister had taken an extraordinary risk doing this. “Satomi… you’ll get caught. Listen, you need to come with us until we figure this all out, okay?”

[Warehouse]

Baron Zemo (the man in the purple mask) turned and gasped at the sound of the sprinklers. The entire room was being drenched in water. He noticed Connor running towards him, and Zemo raised a pistol and fired!

Connor rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding being shot. He raised his hand and said something in latin, and there was a blinding flash of light that left Zemo gasping and blinking rapidly. Connor ran towards him and kicked the nazi in the stomach, and then he cut the ropes around his grandfather’s wrist.

Corwin fell to his knees, coughing.

“Grandpa! Come on! We need to go!” Connor pleaded.

Throwing his gandfather’s arm around his shoulder, Connor pulled him towards the exit. “Sarai! Hurry, we need to get back to the car!”

[Streets]

Oland looked down at the beast's flesh growing around his leg. He reached down and grabbed it, and his strength seemed to grow for a moment as he snapped the flesh apart between his fingers and ripped it away from him.

"... I've seen worse than you." Oland growled at the creature.

Jeremie noticed Kimi and Sama exchanging words and a feeling of immense doom came over him. He wasn't sure why, but those two working together seemed like a very bad thing.

Somewhere SKWS universe Jeremie was agreeing wholeheartedly.

A moment later (and before he could escape) Kimi appeared at his side and slinked her arm around his shoulder. She had a very pained strange look on her face.

“Heeeeey… guy. You and me are gonna pose a couple tonight.”

"W-What?" Jeremie stuttered, going a bit pale. This woman was scary to say the least "B-But me and-and Crystal-"

Meanwhile Crystal watched on with a raised brow. She looked over to her boyfriend. "That's.....Kinda out of the blue."

Paris

Warehouse

Sarai rushed towards Connor but skid to a halt as she noticed him coming towards her with his grandfather in tow. Instantly she turned on her heel and headed back to the car, jumping in the driver's seat and roaring the car back to life. She STILL wasn't sure how well she could drive, but at this point she didn't care-- they needed to GO.

As soon as Connor and Corwin were inside Sarai stepped on the gas and headed out as fast as she could.

“I don't know... maybe?” Sage said, “I don't know anyone else... but it's got to be possible, right?”

-Empire State Building-

“Elizabeth, the building is in danger. We need to get out before we're trapped. And right now, I have to worry about Blake as well...” Galv explained to his sister.

Not to mention that he knew the Nazis were after his family, thanks to Walter...

Paris

-Waterfront Apartments-

Aaron frowned, turning back to Oliver now, staring at him.

“Who?” he asked, trying to think of who he knew who could be a secret agent. Old Man Sensei? Maybe, but that didn't make much sense. Certainly not his father, Ethan...

Aaron didn't know very much about Rica though. He had some vague memories and feelings of unconsciously blaming the man for being the reason his parents had never really gotten together, mostly, though none of those feelings transferred to Lalia.

"Here, let me take Blake" Elizabeth said, moving forward "You're a much better fighter than me....And I have a feeling we'll need to defend ourseleves soon enough"

Suddenly a man turned the corner, holding a gun and wearing black...

Great timing.

Streets

"Well I wish it would happen again...It may have hurt but maybe I could tell where it was coming from" Joyce said, jumping as a large boom sounded and several large firetrucks rushed by. "-Or maybe I won't need to"

She grabbed Sage's hand, rushing down the street

(Ahhhh, I forgot the flashback, I am a horrible person. D: )

Samuel nodded, accepting Melanie's reasoning, about to ask her how much longer she thought she needed until she made a decision, when a question from Melanie threw him off.

"If you don't mind me asking, what was Galv's mother like?"

Samuel paused, clenching his hot tea tightly in his hand, staring forward at the wall for a few long moments, probably making Melanie wonder what happened, before he finally spoke.

“Levina was... Levina was wonderful. She was full of energy and excitement, and pretty bull headed, just like Galv. If she knew she wanted something, she followed through and didn't let go,” Samuel said softly, sounding almost distant, like he wasn't really there.

“She loved Galv so much. She'd never let him go except to me now and then. She could spark too, it's where Galv and Elizabeth got it from. I'm thankful they didn't receive my power...” Samuel continued, “She loved Elizabeth too, the little bit of time they had. She got sick not too long after giving birth. I never did find out what exactly, but Elizabeth was barely a month old when Levina died... Galv was only about six...”

Samuel shook a little, getting up, “I think I need to go...”

New York City

-Empire State Building-

Galv was about to hand Blake to Elizabeth, when a man appeared in black, wielding a gun.

Galv didn't even hesitate, charging his free hand, and sending out a shot of electrical energy at the man!

-Streets-

Sage down the streets with Joyce, knowing full well even if Joyce didn't suspect someone with powers doing something, she'd still want to know what was going on so she could try and report it.

“We should be careful Joyce, it might be dangerous!” Sage tried to warn as they hurried down the street.

"...what the heck was that about?" Marco questioned aloud, after it appeared that all the strange disguised ninjas disappeared. He then looked around, taking stock of what all had just occurred around them, before he overheard Oliver commenting about how scary ninjas seemed to be.

"The one on our side is probably scarier than the ones that were in that group..." he then laughed, obviously referring to Nanami, who hopefully also didn't disappear with the rest of those ninjas.

Flashback


Melanie bit her lip, standing up suddenly. "W-Wait, i'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you" she said quickly "I know something like this hurts but you shouldn't leave"

The young woman now felt like she was intruding on something very private, but at the same time Galv's mother was something that interested her immensely. She wanted to know all about her.

"My dad died when I was a baby and my mom was never really around as a kid. I always wondered what it was like to have an actual mom around. Galv's sounded...Nice" Melanie explained, looking a bit flush. "And you seem nice too...Elizabeth always tells me about all the things you do with her whenever you come home. She waits every night for you by the phone too."

Guuuuuiiilllttt.

New York City

The man in black fell back, obviously not at all expecting a super-powered man to attack him with an orb of electricity. He fell back with a loud shout, probably drawing attention to them.

"Crap crap crap" Elizabeth exclaimed, grabbing Blake from Galv and holding him tightly.

Suddenly there were more Nazi's...Lots more.

Streets

"Since when has dangerous stopped me!?" Joyce said with a grin, totally unaware that her brother was actually the one in danger. "Come on!"

[Streets]

Kimi was conflicted. On the one hand, she hated the idea of spending the evening fake-flirting with this blonde idiot. On the other hand, she could definitely torture Jeremie, and she’d be getting paid for it… but allowing Jeremie to make Sama’s evening miserable sounded fun too.

“I said you’re gonna pretend to be my date.” Kimi said, narrowing her eyes. “The correct response is ‘Thank you for the opportunity’. Oh, and PRETEND is the key word. If you try to get handys I’ll rip your arms out of their sockets and beat you with them. Kay?”

Sama just shrugged his shoulders. “Kimi does a lot of out of the blue stuff.”

[Paris]

[Car]

Connor was breathing heavy as the car sped away from the warehouse. A group of HYDRA soldiers raced behind them, opening fire with machine guns. Several bullets smashed the back of the car, shattering the rear windshield, until Zemo ran out and ordered them to stop shooting.

With a groan, Connor looked to Sarai. “A-Are you okay?”

[Waterfront Apartments]

[Roof]

Oliver frowned. He wasn’t supposed to talk about this stuff… in the adrenaline of the battle; he had let his secret slip. Although he supposed it was best to be upfront with them all.

“A man named Rica. He’s an MI5 operative, but he hasn’t checked in for quite a while. I’m supposed to find him.”

“You can worry about that later.” Nanami interrupted, looking around. She cast a quick glance to Marco, but said nothing about his comment. She had a bad feeling about all of this.

“We need to get inside.”

[Inside]

Musashi walked over to Laila, pulling her off to the side for a moment and leaning close.

“Listen, I’m really sorry about all of this. I didn’t expect us to be in danger… but something’s wrong. I have this bad feeling about everything. We need to get my sister, get the others, and get out of here.”

Streets

Crystal wasn't sure what Kimi was up to (or what Sama was up to more importantly) but but right now she was just happy to have a bit of breathing room away from the blonde young man--though sticking him with Kimi seemed like some kind of terrible punishment.

"Oooooookkkkkay, if that's what he wants" she said-

"THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANT" Jeremie shouted from his spot, now sweating bullets. He didn't like how Kimi was looking at him- like she was going to cut his throat with a pair of high heels.

Luckily the group wasn't too far from Wall Street, a large group of people already surrounding the bank in which the part would be held.

Paris

"I-I'm okay" Sarai stuttered, clutching the wheel with a death grip. The group looked rather bad by now, and needed a place to hide and let Corwin rest and heal. Luckily Sarai had an idea of a safe place.

The girl drove for a bit, finally pulling down a dark side road lined with very nice cars lining the street. Their bullet ridden automobile stuck out like a sore thumb, but Sarai continued to drive, pulling into a driveway of a rather large house with a large orange, white and green flag.

"We can stay at my f-father's house until we f-figure something out" Sarai told Connor, biting her lip a bit. She wasn't sure how her dad would take this decision.

The car stopped and Sarai climbed out, rushing around to the passenger's side to herlp Connor with his grandfather.

"Whose there?"

Sarai looked up to see her eldest brother, a young man with tanned skin and dark eyes like her. Her brother Kalyan frowned, rushing over.

Waterfront Apartments

"Rica.....You're after Laila's dad." Adrianna stated, deciding in her head that there probably weren't many other Rica's causing trouble and playing the spy game. In and instant the girl rushed forward and grabbed Oliver's shirt, glaring at him dangerously. "I'm not a huge fan of the guy, but i'm pretty sure Rica would kill you without trying that hard once you find him. What do you plan on doing to him?"

[...]

"It's okay, really" Laila said "I think it's a really good thing what you're doing. I'd be mad if you didn't bring her along.

Galv held up his hands, sparking.

“Elizabeth, get down!” Galv yelled, then focused, sending out a wave of electricity around him!

Sage sighed, but nodded, following after Joyce, keeping hold of her hand as they got to the crowds, trying to see what was happening...

Paris

-Waterfront Apartments-

Aaron frowned. “Rica... Hmm... He's hard to track down...”

He glanced towards his sister for a moment, before turning back to Nanami.

“I could break the door open if it's locked,” Aaron suggested, pointing towards the door on the roof, “Or if you want surprise, I could bust a hole through the roof.”

Flashback

Samuel hesitated for a moment, glancing towards Melanie, then paused, turning towards her.

“It's not you... It's... look... Don't you wonder why I look more like Galv's age? In ten years he'll look older then me, and I'll still look the same. In twenty it'll be worse...”
