"I'll be fine here. It'll give me chance to figure the rest of the system out." Beth replied, her expression showing she was happy. " Go, I'm not going anywhere."
The teen suddenly stopped his smartmouth attitude," Do good? Government team? You're one of the ggo d guys?" He seemed to perk up," Are you hear to help stop Miami from turning into a cesspool, and clean up those people you hear on the news like Lodestone, and Doomsayer and Photon?" The names he rattled off were supervillians that had plagued the southern states for years, and were growing more brazen.

Deci lets out a sigh, "I dunno. I guess so. But after tonight I don't feel like a hero at all. But that is enough about me, what are you doing out here at this hour. And my offer still stands, if you need anything my fathers house is not far. I mean you were obviously hoping for something going through my stuff after all?" Her composure returning to semi normal now that some of the things upsetting her have been removed or at least covered. "I mean you probably should not be ruffling through peoples stuff at all." Adding the part at the end to one convince herself of her hero-ness and add the convincing to the boy.
GM Note: It's mornin, Of course he's out

Tom smiles. "Good. Otherwise I'd have to chase you." as he wheels off looking for MacCoulter.

*checks to see if Arc has finished his drawing of the layout of the Meta-Cop lair has been finished. 'i'll do everything in my power to keep your past stay there. your family won't know about it. the people that are watching them, are aware 'our' kind exist and have ensured that they can stay hidden. think of it as an extended vacation for them for now'
*she glances at Kristian and nods. 'yeah, too many hoodlum types for my liking. made my skin crawl among other things. Domichelli? never heard of him, but i'll get our . . . oh she got hurt a while ago and might not be up and running yet . . . ask Avi about him then. maybe he can look it up'
'not sure how to keep the place under surveillance. other than checking to see if there are any vacancies nearby and renting them and leaving camera's watching the neighbours . . see what their schedule is like, see who's who that's visiting or living there. best thing i can think of'
*Sierra looks back at Arc and asks quietly* 'any message for your family? i've got my wire ready to go and can dial a contact that can forward it for you'

"Oh please," Tom could hear the grin on Beth's face despite she didn't turn from the computer," you couldn't catch me without using your powers unless I wanted you to."
Tom found Dylin with the others as Arc replied," I'm trusting you, Sierra, don't disappoint me."
Kristian stepped forward," No need for threats, mon."
"It's not a threat. Now, here's my offer. I'll help you deal Wraith and his goons. In exchange, I walk and my family and I go into witness protection. You don't need me in a trial, and frankly I'd be a terrible choice for a witness. Deal?" Arc folded his arms, and waited for a reply.
"Lady, you do what you have to if you wanna survive these days. If I got ten or twenty buckd from you, thats alot more than I had. " The boy said, then looked at her suspiciously," You'd help me even though I tried to steal from you? Are you for real or just crazy?"

'trust me, that isn't my intention. Mac is doing the paperwork for the witness peotection. for me, family means more. its for family that i'm doing this. you've done your best to be normal and redeem yourself. thats good enough for me'
*she looks at Isamu, as it will ultimately be his call. if he plans to do anything now or add anything to the deal it will be his words and not hers. she studies the map and worries about it. she ponders how many gang members they'll have to go through first to get to the upper floors. she thinks how many fliers they have and then wonders about other things like blueprints of buildings and stuff like that

Deci takes a moment to sigh. "Yes even though you tried to steal from me." As she stands up and leads him down the beach to her parents place. "Think of it this way, if a strangers kindness stopped you from stealing from someone else, then that person never needs to suffer. So not only will I be helping you, but I will be helping the person down the line that you will potentially be taking from." Out of her mouth she realizes how almost logically and to a point lawyery what she says sounds. She decides to shrug it off and continue leading the way.
(When and if she gets her Fathers house she silently will ask the boy to stay put and sneak in and go to her "Piggy Bank" as I can see her being the type to have one and considering family money and all that, not filled with the standard coins and all that but over the years having replaced the coins that may be in there with bills and the likes. Once she pulls out about $100 worth she will head back down. If this does not happen don't worry about it, lol)

Robert turns the car on and gets himself out of there before something bad happens. "Did she really just leave? What the hell is this?"

Dylin turned, obviously not happy about the interruption, but looked both curious and pleased. " Good work Tom. Give us a moment and I'll have a look. Kristian, can you go see Beth and see what she can dig up in the computer on the apartment building?"
"Sure." Kristian replied, though didn't look happy about leaving Sierra's side, but he left the room.
"Normal?" Arc chuckled," Now there's a term you don't hear in our business very often. I hope you all have lead lined underwear if you want to do this. U-235 has gotten meaner in his old age."
With help of the GPS on the car's dash, Robert managed to find his way back to the beach house fairly easily. As he pulled in, a windowless van was backed up to one of the garage's door and both Avi and Ryne were watching whatever was going on, though they did turn long enough to acknowledge him.
When Deci came back out of the house, the boy( she had learned his name was Trent), looked at her wide eyed," Are you sure this is okay? No one will notice or get mad at you?"
From inside, Deci heard her grandmother's shout," Who's there? December, was that you? Get back here!"
Trent started to back away, looking ready to bolt. " I knew this was too good. You stole this, didn't you?" He tried to give back the money.

"I'll just sit out here. Instead of sitting in there." Tom grins as he wheels out.

"No I did not steal this. This is from my piggybank and that would be my Grandmother probably wondering why I did not stop to say hi. You know if you are hungry I am sure we could get some food in you as well. If you want, if not it is no worries. Oh wait." Deci pauses and turns her head, "Yes Grandmother it is me. I am just giving some money to a boy that needs it out of my piggy-bank to help him out. If there is some food or stuff it would be nice to give him some of that too."
After she is done turning to Trent. "This has not been a good night for me. As it is I am sure I am going to get some comments, but I had to prove myself that I can do some good today!: She proffers a smile to Trent.

Getting out of the car, Robert rushes up to Avi and Ryne. "Have you two seen Deci? She just ditched me when things got hot out there! Man, there were guys all over my apartment. I should have known it would be foolish to go back there." Robert's speech is a little manic at the moment as he just escaped a gunfight.

Isamu says, "Sierra will continue to be your point of contact. She has done a good job preparing everything for this meeting, and your family as well. Whatever you need it will go through her. If MacCoulter approves then of course your family and yourself will be protected. I see no reason why your family cannot be brought into protective custody immediately. You should be able to join them once Wraith is defeated."
"Hopefully we can use the information you provide to bring his defeat sooner."

Sierra looks more than a little confused at Isamu's words. and she tries to decypher them quickly. 'oh . . continue doing what i am. got it . . . '
'lead lined undies? . . what exactly do you mean by that?' *her attention once again, is focused on Arc. 'oh wait . . was the the sick guy? the one that made me feel sick? what did they say? . . radiation, wasn't it?'
'and until i know for sure that they ARE getting full protection and not going to be abused or shuffled about, the family will continue to stay 'mobile'. sorry, some things i will work with you on, others i won't. right now the family is safe . . because they are mobile. because anything we have on them in the system could get . . . jacked and sold off to the highest bidder. right? my way keeps them safe cause even I don't know exactly where they are'
