I can't see what you're imagining
-High Rise Apartments-

Aaron was quiet, looking at Rica and his mother.

“You need a distraction,” Aaron said, after a moment, “Mom, is there somewhere you can hide out?”

He looked towards the room, then moved his hood up, obscuring his face...

-McCall Residence-

Sage paused, frowning. Entertain themselves for a few hours...?

Most of the time Sage and Joyce would be wandering the streets, Joyce looking for her next big scoop, generally just exploring the city.

They very rarely spent time inside, unsupervised. Mostly because Galv would kill Sage if they did.

“I guess we could play Monopoly or something...” Sage muttered, “Or Parcheesi...”

-Hawkins House-

Blake nodded to his mother, “I won't say anything to daddy then...”

He looked at the suitcase his mother was packing, then walked over to his bed, grabbing his small blanket, holding it close.

“When am I going...?” he wondered.

High Rise Apartments

Kanna gave a small nod, but then her eyes widened. "No. Aaron don't you dare do anything! You're coming with us until I can contact your father"

Kanna supposed they could go to Samuel's suite....It was only a few blocks away and would provide them a safe spot for a short while. She looked back at Rica....Ugh.....They needed to be meeting with Red Skull soon. It was not smart to keep him waiting.

[...]

Crystal rushed into the bathroom, nodding and reaching down to grab the piece of paper....Wait! She could possibly be aiding a criminal! She wasn't even sure if Sama was innocent yet-

Oh crap crap crap.....Well too late, her prints were on thee paper now.

"What is it?" Crystal asked, looking down at it...There was a name...She didn't recognize it though. "Look..."

McCall Residence

"Or twister..." Ryan coughed, before taking another sip of his wine. He knew he was making a great innuendo, even if the game hadn't been invented yet

"Why don't you go upstairs and entertain your guest Sage...I'll come up in a bit to check on you two."

Hawkins House

"Good boy" Melanie said quietly, finishing Blake's bag for him and looking over to his bed. There were several stuffed toys, one of which Melanie took...Looking down at it. She wanted to cry.
'
"You won't be gone too long darling...I'll make sure of it." Melanie said, giving the toy a slight squeeze. "Would you like to take any of your toys along?"

Safehouse

"Well there's only one way to find out!" Laila grinned, jumping up and grabbing her coat. "Bet you ten bucks Musashi and Adrianna will be doing the same thing as us"

Central Park

"It's fine" Adrianna said, moving forward to kiss him once more before standing up on the carriage and suddenly jumping off. "I think it's coming from this way!"

“Kanna's right, Aaron.” Rica said, grabbing the boy's arm. “If we need a distraction, I'll do it. No offense, but I'm a little more resilient than the rest of you.”

Rica frowned, looking out the window at the fire escape. “We need to move. Can't let those cops stall us now.”

[…]

Sama scanned the note quickly as Crystal held it. It seemed to be a personal letter, between two people... apparently they were lovers of some sort. It sounded like there was a long story, one involving children. He read several names.

“Kanna... Aaron... Adrianna... Samuel... and it's signed by an 'Ethan Alejandro Vire'. Not mcuh to go on, mostly first names, but we can still try to track them all down. It was addressed to 'Kanna', so maybe that was the woman's name... could that guy have been Ethan?”

Mistaking Rica for Ethan? Somehow that just screams comedy.

Sama shook his head. “We need to go. This is good evidence, but we don't have much time.”

[Safehouse]

Nanami nodded and quickly put some various stabbity tools in her bag and headed of the door.

“We'll need to be fast.” Nanami told Laila, as she rushed out.

[Central Park]

Musashi gratefully accepted the kiss, but then he was far more serious as he too jumped off the carriage.

“You're right, it is that way... let's follow it!” Musashi said, rushing down the street.

-High Rise Apartment-

Aaron frowned, sighing then nodding his head.

"Fine then. Let's go."

He needed to figure out just what was going on with his mother...

-McCall Residence-

Sage paused, wondering what Twister was, but was interrupted when the water boiled. Preparing a pot of tea, Sage placed everything he'd need on a tray, then headed back to his room.

"Ummmm, thanks Dad," he called down.

Once he was out of earshot, Lily smirked.

"I wouldn't think you'd be one to want grandkids so soon, Ryan," Lily commented idly. "Though I've never even had kids of my own. Maybe it's a parent thing..."



Back in Sage's room, Sage entered with the tray for tea. He cleared some space off his desk to make room for it, then turned to Joyce.

"I uhhhh, got the tea..." Sage muttered, "It'll take a few minutes to brew though..."

-Hawkins House-

Blake stared up at his mother, then grabbed his blanket, the one that he carried with him everywhere, and walked over to Melanie.

"Momma... Here," Blake said, offering his blanket to her, "You can have this..."

-Uptown -


Kanna headed down the street, knowing that right now she was endangering the life of her son, and probably signing all of their death warrants with the nazis. But she didn't have any choice right now. She would sort everything when they were safe.

"There it is" Kanna said, pointing up at a tall building. She had been here the night before with Samuel and knew this was his place for the time. "Thirty-second floor."

McCall Residence

Ryan took a bite of his food before moving over to Lilly's side of the table. He slinked an arm around her waist. "Oh don't worry, I doubt they have children on their minds, but a little playing around never hurt anyone did it?"he asked, nuzzling her neck.

[...]

"Oh! You're back!" Joyce said, looking over to the door. She smiled and went over to him making a move to help him with the tea. She then hesitated looking down at her arm. "Uh, m-maybe not...That you for the tea though!


Hawkins House

Melanie looked down at her son, suddenly wanting to cry as her son offered his blanket to stay behind. The woman moved down, suddenly pulling the boy into a tight hug. She didn't want to scare the boy about the uncertain future, but she needed to cry.

"I love you so much, my baby-but you're not a baby anymore....You're such a big boy..."

High-Rise Apartments

Crystal nodded, following Sama out. "We'll run the names when we get back to the station...Maybe one of those names has a record?"

The girl couldn't help but to give a small sigh. Going through all of those files was going to be a feat in itself.

Safehouse

"Don't worry, i'm quite a runner" Laila exclaimed, rushing out into the street. She then blinked, looking at the spot Nanami had been in before. "Okay...Maybe not quite that fast."

Either way she rushed towards the sirens!

Central Park

Adrianna followed Musashi towards the source of the noise, a tall apartment complex in the nice part of the city. For a moment Adrianna stood in the rain looking a bit confused.

"There's no smoke...Dont think it was a bomb-"

Out of the corner of her eye she saw something in the rain...Someone...THREE someones...But in a blink they were gone..

[Uptown]

Rica looked around cautiously, trying to keep an eye out for the cops, or for anyone else who might be after them. When the police, the mafia and the nazis were all potentially chasing you, paranoia tends to set in.

As they arrived, he nodded and looked over to Aaron. He hoped the boy could be convinced to stay in the hallway or something. While Rica needed the information on the nazi movements, and he had to get involved to protect Kanna, he certainly didn't want any of the children involved in this.

[High-Rise Apartments/Streets]

Sama hurried down the elevator with a sigh. He could hear footsteps from the halls and angry shouts, and he had a feeling that Kingpin's men were already cowering the building. Luckily, they made it out onto the rainy streets without getting shot at... again.

“Well, we have a lead. That's something... but...”

He sighed. He had a lot on his mind. Not just Crystal's mysterious contact and the fact she was investigating him – but also what had happened upstairs. He had a chance to stop the killer (or who he thought was the killer) and he had messed up.

“... This is no time for me to be second guessing this case. We're on the right trail, and we're going to stop these guys.”

[Streets]

Musashi rushed towards the source of the commotion in time to see police cars pulling up to a high-rise apartment building. It looked like a nice place.

“You're right. I don't think this was a bomb... but something had to have happened.”

He scanned the crowd, looking for some indication of what happened – and he spotted a messy-haired boy in a vest who was covered in blood.

“... Geez... looks like something bad went down.” Musashi shook his head.

[Different Streets (Locations in the world biggest city can be tricky XD)]

Nanami was running as fast as she could – which was quite a bit more than Laila, or really, almost anyone – before she realized she should probably slow down a bit.

She was out of breathe, but still seemed somehow composed. “I think we're getting close.” She called to Laila.

"Well, here we are..." Didymus said.

"Listen, I really think you'd probably be better for this than I, Miss Basil. Again, the results of my last two attempts were...less than ideal, even if not entirely a loss, and I'm confident your nature could connect with our next interviewee...heck, you've perhaps seen her around the library..."

He paused.

"In the meantime, there's some more busniess I may have to discuss with Mr. Sunnyside..."

High-Rise Apartments/Streets

Crystal couldn't help but to give a little smirk to Sama. "You seem so optimistic about this" she said, watching as the numbers clicked down on the elevator. What she said was part sarcastic, but part genuine admiration for the boy. She took a step towards him but hesitated.

Times like this were insanely romantic in the movie, but she just felt a little awkward, watching the guy she was investigating but also attracted to....Strange. He was also covered in blood which didn't help matters much.

"think there's a way to sneak out of here without the police seeing us?" she suddenly asked "That way they don't confiscate the evidence we've gathered. I dunno about you but I have a feeling we'd be better off investigating it than they NYPD."

Streets

While Musashi was focused on a strange boy covered in blood Adrianna's were on someone she swore was her mother....And Aaron....And Laila's father.

"Musashi come on!" Adrianna suddenly exclaimed, pulling the boy down a long alleyway in hopes to cut off the trio.

It helped that Adrianna was super strong.

Other streets

Laila raised a brow as they made it up towards the building. There were tons of police around the place, as if something big happened.

Laila noticed a back door, motioning at it. "Wanna see if we can find the cause of the commotion?"

[High-Rise Apartments/Streets]

Sama nodded as he poked his head out of the door. The police were everywhere, and he knew Kingpin's goons would be sneaking around too. Luckily, the police presence would make it hard for them to get out.

"That way they don't confiscate the evidence we've gathered. I dunno about you but I have a feeling we'd be better off investigating it than they NYPD."

Sama raised an eyebrow and smirked. “You sure you want to do that? Lenny might not be happy if we hold out on him... but we might have better chances.”

He wondered if this was tied to her investigation. He shrugged, and nodded. “Then let's sneak out the back!”

[Streets]

Musashi was suddenly pulled down an alleyway with a yelp. He realized Adrianna was insanely strong, and made a mental note not to piss her off.

“What is it? Did you see someone?” Musashi had no idea that Kanna, Adrianna's brother and Laila's father were nearby.

[Other Streets]

Nanami nodded to Laila. In truth, she was worried that Musashi might be somehow responsible for all of this, and that would be bad.

“Lead the way.”

[Littlelip Theater]

“I think it all just depends on who we talk too.” Snake said, looking at the building. “We should be fine...”

-Uptown-

Aaron paused, his ears twitching, turning around, trying to focus through the rain.

“...You two go inside...” Aaron said. “I think I see someone...”

Aaron hurried off into the rain.

-McCall Residence-

“Sometimes things can happen that aren't planned, though,” Lily smirked, taking a bite of her food, “But another thing...I find it quite interesting that you choose electricity as a power you wanted...”

She took a sip of her drink, “That's the only power I was born with, you know...”



“Don't worry about it, really,” Sage smiled, “It's the least I could do...”

He paused, looking towards Joyce now, blushing again, “So...what do you want to do? I could...get a board game or something...”

-Hawkins House-

Blake frowned, sad his mother was crying. He wanted to make her happy, somehow...

“I'm sorry momma...I'll be good...I'll learn how to control my powers really quick...” Blake muttered.

Violet revealed her notebook before giving a slight nod. She wrote down 'I shall do what I can, sir!' And handed it to Didymus. So she would meet a girl...like herself, only probably capable of talking. This would be..interesting. And it was, in a nutshell, her first true 'assignment.' No, Violet wouldn't screw this up.

Uptown

"Aaron get back here!" Kanna yelled, taking a step forward but knowing she couldn't follow. She needed to avoid getting caught so she grabbed Rica's arm and pulled him towards the building....Though now she was in a reaaallly bad mood.

McCall Residence

"Oh really?" Ryan asked, raising a brow. He grinned and leaned back in his chair "I guess it's fate then isn't it? True love and all that sappy stuff"

He didn't mention that it was because he wanted to slaughter Melanie's husband with it. That seemed to be a mood killer.

[...]

Joyce grinned at the idea of a game, sitting on on the boy's bed and looking up to him "Oh! Okay! What do you want to play?"

Hawkins House

"I know you will" Melanie sobbed, probably partially because of baby hormones and such "You'll do wonderfully...I just want you to be happy...And safe. I don't want you to be scared of the dark anymore..."

A moment later Melanie attempted to compose herself, wiping her face. "I'm sorry darling, I shouldn't be crying. We should go find papa."

High-Rise Apartments/Streets

Crystal gave a nod, heading down the stairs and out the back door. They were greeted with a downpour of rain, leading the girl to stuff the evidence in her coat to preserve it.

"Come on, my place isn't too far from here. We'll go there"

[...]

"I thought I saw Aaron....And my mom" Adrianna said, narrowing her eyes to see through the rain. She grabbed him again, rushing forward...Probably running into Aaron.

[...]

Laila grinned, looking around the building and finding a cracked window on the second floor. She grabbed some stray rope from beside a trashcan and handed it to Nanami. While she didn't have the cool ninja abilities to climb up there she was pretty sure Nanami could do it.

“He'll be fine.” Rica tried to reassure her. “They're not looking for a kid. They're looking for us. He's probably safer without us.”

She was pulling him towards a building, and he didn't resist – but he did look around, trying to keep an eye out for any cops... or anything worse.

“We should meet with Samuel and get to Skull quick.”

[Streets]

Sama was actually grateful for the rain. He knew he'd be soaked to the bone, but he would also lose the blood stains on his arms.

“Okay, we should try to hurry, we don't want to get spotted.” Sama agreed, and he quickly followed her.

(They can arrive whenever you want!)

[…]

Musashi blinked. “Aaron and... your mom?”

He wasn't sure he wanted to meet Aaron while on a date with Adrianna, much less their mother – who he knew wanted to kill him.

[High-Rise Apartment]

Nanami tossed the rope up, hooking it on the side of the window ledge. She pulled the rope taunt, and then looked to Laila.

“Hold onto me.” Nanami sighed, and started to climb up the building.

[Littlelip Theater]

“... Oh. You're all back.”

Cherion Archer was standing at the entrance to the theater with an umbrella, and an raised eyebrow. “Well, come on in. We've got everyone here... we were expecting you.”

“Adrianna! That was you I heard!”

Aaron appeared in the rain, frowning as he saw her with Musashi. He didn't see Nanami or Lalia anywhere...

“...What are you two doing?” he asked suddenly, frowning.

His brother senses were tingling.

-Samuel's Suite-

Samuel sat in his suite, playing Solitaire, as he waited for Kanna, humming to himself.

-McCall Residence-

Lily smirked a little, wondering if she should also tell Ryan that her brother had always been much stronger then her when it came to electricity...and that fighting him with his new power would just mean the two wouldn't be able shock each other.

She decided not to...it would be fun to watch, after all.

“True love, hm?” Lily smirked, “Is that something you felt with Sage's mother?”



Sage paused. What game did he want to play?

The making out game. Which is not a game. But is making out.

Sage shook his head. Monopoly? Except that wasn't very fun with only two people...though it was because Ryan always beat him when Sage could convince his father to spend time with him.

Besides, it had to be something exciting! Joyce liked exciting things, and Sage was worried that he would just be too dull for the girl...

“How about...Truth or Dare?” Sage asked suddenly, getting an idea. Surely this would be exciting...

-Hawkins House-

Blake nodded, heading out of his room and downstairs, where his dad was waiting patiently...

“Well, come on in. We've got everyone here... we were expecting you.”

"I certainly hope not." Didymus said, half-jokingly.

"One of the few things going for me, I had hoped, was some trace of the element of surprise."

Whether he was joking or serious, his tone seemed to imply either.

"At any rate, let's head inside..."
