- Kay - Kay's mind flashed to the hidden form in their own apartment. Still and lifeless. They did not want to drag them into the war zone they imagined the safe zone would become. They would be safe there for now and if needs be they could sneak out to them, especially with no mind yet it was more of a suit than their creation. "I'll come along with you." Kay gave a small smile as they placed down their own tip. Being looked after sounded like being imprisoned. "Though looking after me can wait for eternity. I'll be fine, I am now here to assist you." They stood up brushing a few crumbs off. It seemed they would be wearing this face for now, time to work out which habits they would incorporate in. It would be amusing at least, a new role always was.

- Acchilleus - "Good," muttered Acchilleus as he signalled to his driver who immediately started the engine as Acchilleus strode over towards the vehicle. His mind was dead set on the Safe Zone. He wanted to see how much progress had been made, and he needed to figure out how he was going to get food, and water for everyone. As he stepped into the car, leaving the door open for his new ally, he began planning how he'd feed the people who followed him.

- Monica Johnson - Monica's boots thumped across the hospital floor in urgency. She slammed her hands down on the reception desk, "I'm Monica Jonsson, Chief of the HPD, I just recieved a call. Is she alright?" One of the nurses behind the counter quickly circled around towards her. "I'm afraid it's critical, She doesn't have long left to live.". To Monica, it felt as if the world around her just became a twister. "W-w-what." That was all she could stammer out. "I need to see her, I have to be there." The nurse gave an empathetic look. "Okay, follow me.". The walk to the emergency room felt like walking down an endless corridor. Everything covered in a depressing blue haze which dampened the soul and spirit to no end. They turned into the soul sucking emergency room. That was when Monica saw her, her auntie lay on the bed. Besides her was the empty seat, where Monica would have to sit with her auntie till death embraced her. Monica took her place, comfortingly taking her Aunts hand. "Hey... Aunty Morine, I know you can't hear me. I know you-" Tears fell down her face, she was choking up. It was only a good few years ago this happened. During a fight between two heroes her aunt was severly injured and was admitted to hospital. Her condition was frequently changing but, this was the first time it went critical which resulted in her life being cut short. When Monica first heard of her aunts condition, She was shocked. Her aunt was always someone she could look up to, There were many good times had with her aunt. Monica wiped her tears away, "I'm so sorry. There was nothing I could do to help you. There's so many thing I could say to you, But you won't be able to hear them." The sobbing came heavily now as more happy memories flooded into her head. BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEEP! BEEEEP! BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.... Monica's eyes went wide. She tightened her grip around her Aunts hand. "No..." She whispered, shaking her head in disbelief. "Oh dear god no." Monica felt hollow. She lowered her sobbing head and cried out.

- Reaver - After maybe twenty minutes of driving, the scenery surrounding the road began to shift dramatically. The city became an industrial estate, before thinning out into smaller outlying buildings, many of which were abandoned. After this, the city was gone entirely, replaced by the empty wasteland gangs like the Warbanders lived and died within. The capital was many hours away, and few ever chose to drive that distance, especially considering the dangers that came with the untamed journey. For Reaver, this was good news, as it meant the great, old highway, built in Heartania's heyday, was now almost completely abandoned. Her car screamed towards the horizon, travelling at an astounding speed down the wide and straight passage, and thus it seemed little time at all before dust clouds, thrown in the air by the movement of heavy vehicles, could be seen ahead. Reaver grinned, flicking a switch that ativated the jammer. The music cut out into static as the radio lost signal, and all that remained was the roar of the engine and the howling of the wind.

- Joltz - the guard driving pick up the radio "Transport update we are now leaving Heartania over" she said into it but only receiving static on the other end, pressing it again she said into it "Hello Tower? do you read me?", "it might be her in the back" another guard said sat next to her "i dont think so that jacket is supposed to stop her from using her powers" the guard driving said, the other guard picked up the radio and and press a few buttons and and tried tuning it "no i think its been jammed" he said putting it back "Dam it we cant signal the Tower or the rest of the convoy, lets hope we dont get jumped any time soon" she said frustrated and starting to drive faster to get to the capital

- Reaver - The targets came fully into view, and Reaver got her first glimpse of what they were dealing with. As well as the heavy transport that held the young woman, there were two armoured cars behind it and another in front, all serving to provide escort. Crewing them were Capital city security troops, glorified cops carrying handguns and decent body armour. Still, their training was nothing special, and this force couldn't contain more than thirty of them. For Snow and Reaver, this was certainly a threat, but nothing beyond their means. As she considered this, Reaver pulled out into the next lane and passed by, easily overtaking the slower cars. Reaver leaned over to Snow. "Do you think you can make them stop for us?" She asked sweetly. "I'd rather not have to fight on top of a moving truck again if I can't help it."

- Kay - Kay ducked down into the back of the car. This caused more looks than any conversation in the restaurant. Clothing offset pick up, at least they had not chosen hobo chic as the attire of the day or it would have caused more than a few glares. They sat casually legs slightly open a sign of male confidence they had always found amusing especially when female body language often mirrored the opposite. The city passed them by as the car began to roll onwards. Kay half wished they could run outside it was not often they bothered with vehicles when it was so much easier to walk or run the city to find all it's little secrets.

- Marshal Maleficus - "Truth be told, dear little Butterfly, I want a few moments rest. It's already been a tiring time. Three kidnappings, and one death. My my I have been busy in my little home down here, haven't I?" He leant in close to the Butterfly; their noses practically touching. His tone dropped to a more severe octave than what it was before. "As for you, I want you to shut the hell up and be a good little Butterfly. You're nothing special... simply leverage."

- Bloodstream - Sienna settled back into her seat wriggling around out of her work disguise into her normal clothes. The writhing certainly gained some attention from passers-by but most just scurried on into the hospital. One man came up to the window and knocked on it. "You okay in there Ma'am." He asked politely trying not to look on as Sienna finished putting on her vest over the white bra. "I'm fine. Sorry I must look a mess. Just got off work and had to change quick." She gave a grin quickly shoving a crumpled suit onto the dashboard over the knife. "Ah. No worries have a nice day Ma'amm." His eyes crumpling with a knowing smile as though he had seen it before. "I will." She smiled with gritted teeth pulling out of the lot quickly before she changed her mind and ran the smug smile off his face. It was only a few minutes and she was pulling back up in front of the warehouse phone in hand as she climbed the steps.

- The Queen of Hearts - Alice sat on her hammock, her feet planted firmly on the ground. Confident that Oren wasn't watching, she reached for a loose brick in the wall and removed it, revealing a piece of card. Retrieving it from the gap, she looked at the card and sighed. The card proved - in fact - to be a photograph. 2049. Alice's fifth birthday; almost a year since baby Kay was born, since their dad died. Alice had always been her brothers' princess, a lot of the time she was the only thing that kept them from arguing with each other. And so, for her fifth birthday they had pulled out all the stops. The photo was of Alice, her dark, silky hair tucked behind her shoulders as she leaned over the cake to blow out the candles. Her brother Tommy baked the cake himself and - as would be expected - the cake looked disgusting, some pasty mess with 'Eat me' scrawled half-haphazardly onto the top in black icing, but Tommy make it himself, for her, and that's what mattered. The entire party was themed, the cake set down on a long, stretched table with saucers and teapots scattered sporadically - teapots the boys had borrowed from the neighbours after much convincing. Alice stood in the photo, ecstatic grin and all in a hand-stitched blue dress made by her mother complete with a white pinafore. On her either side stood her brothers; Tommy (12) and Damian (14), beaming smiles of love and pride. Each stood in equally ridiculously Hatter and Hare costumed they had thrown together at the last minute, Tommy wearing a decrepit top hat retrieved from a skip which was far to big for his had and Damian wearing an adorable pair of bunny ears. They didn't mind looking silly for her. Alice stared deeply into the photograph as she just managed to hold back tears. Instead he swallowed. straightened her posture and her humanity visibly fell back from the surface; back into whatever pit she kept it in. She scoffed, and placed the card back into the space in the brickwork and replaced the brick. Oren still wasn't looking. She had always wanted as a child to become like the other Alice, wandering aimlessly through a world foreign to her own. In a way... she had.

- Snowflake - “No problem,” Snowflake felt the air crystallize around her fingertips as they rushed past the traffic, closer to the damsel in distress. “Do you want me to shred the tires or just have them spin off the road?”

- Oren - Oren casually lounged on a chair he had made out of Sienna's old magazines. He hung himself in the air, not facing Alice due to her being insanely obsessed with her privacy. He sighed, holding his fist beside him. He was aware she was doing something but he paid no attention as his head was stuck in the clouds. - Butterfly - Erin felt that chill of fear but, he held it back so much he could feel it shaking in his intestines. Erin replicated the Marshals tone, "You don't scare me." He moved back in his cage, Praying to the high heavens that someone would save him and not end up in Marshals little web. - The Zap - Michael and Jade both turned onto the street where the large shopping centre had burrowed itself. Though there was damage from the riots, he was glad that there wasn't enough which waranted it being shut down till further notice.

- Bloodstream - Sienna padded upstairs humming the tune she had left with. It just came back to her and she had no idea what was setting it off. An old rather maudlin ditty from her teenage days. What was it called? Ideas about tunes drifted away as she saw Oren sitting on a gathering all her magazines. Instinctively she pulled one out from under him throwing the pile into a bit of disarray. "You can keep the rest." Sienna tapped the date just visible next to a shocking revelation picture that was nowhere near as shocking as the truth was boring. "I only need the most recent one." Addressing her words louder in case Alice was there too just not quite visible to her she plumped down on the table. "I've got the plans and I know my route in, just checking some back up routes out." She flicked on her phone bringing up the images enlarging to get all the details of fire escapes and other little exit doors.

- Oren - Oren let out a sigh as one of the magazines were pulled from his chair. Which caused the pile to shake a little bit but he held it there. Lowering himself down he unclenched his fist, all the magazines falling apart. "Well then, since you're back and threw me out of my thoughts it's about time I leave. I need to start "collecting" " Throwing his hand over his face a light shimmer covered his body, transforming it back to his normal appearance. He grabbed a bag, before grabbing a bunch of money then leaving.

- Reaver - Reaver grinned. She liked options. "If you wouldn't mind, shred the escort's wheels and take the transport of the road." She said, a plan forming in her head. "After that, get down because we're gonna attract some poorly-aimed, panicked shooting from a crowd out confused, outgunned security guards. You never know, one of them might skim you!"
