*William laughs inwardly... it's a pity the police aren't in charge, they'ld have exposed him just by asking for a name and address. He watches the Turpin guy go to Atlas, and waves a hand politely, thanking the young man for taking the time, before heading off. As fast as he can maintain the image, William hobbles down the street, watching store fronts to see if he's being followed*

*looks Ashley in the face and calmly replies 'guess i gotta go .. in case you guys get caught or killed. that way i can scoot away before anyone spots me.
*shrugs* 'dont worry too much about me getting in the way, i don't do the frontline stuff, never have .. and hope to never have to ..
*then moves over to grab the skates and slings them over the shoulder 'so .. do i go with anyone or just try to keep up to someone?

Ashley shrugged, " You don't have to do anything. Tyler trusts William enough that if he says you're okay, that's good enough for us. Plus, I've got a feeling you know more about Denial and the Brethren than we do anymore and that'll come in handy once we figure what they're up to. Hopefully they're won't be any front line stuff, but if there is, stick close to Trevor." She turned and began to walk out the door towards the waiting elevator.
[Silverfire]
Atlas seems to recognize William despite the years since the last time they'd seen each other. No one interfered with Will's departure as he made his way along sidewalk. Turning a corner, a familiar yet forgotten raspy voice spoke to him from the shadows of the first alley he passed. " You haven't changed a bit, always tempting fate. You shouldn't be here, old man. Go back north to your dog sleds and iglooswhere you belong." Atlas stepped from the shadows into plain sight.

*William straightened up to the more comfortable at-ease kind of position, visibly growing a few inches in the process. His face doesn't show any suprise at this appearance.* "But, if I go back, then my boss won't get the ulcer he so richly deserves. I was wondering though. Why did you come back from the dead to help run this new Gustapo?"

*tags along into the elevator after ashley and once there slips the skates to the floor to remove the jacket and turn it inside out, revealing a demin blue jacket with no adornments. then bends to replace the runners with the skates and then after tucking the runners away into the oversized pockets takes the cap off and twists the hair up and out of sight
'hope that's enough to hide who i am. not much, but i dont have a lotta time, guess i should get me some makeup stuff to appear like the normals out there.
*rolls along slowly afterashley as she exits the elevator, keeping the eyes peeled for anything out of the norm.

"This organization is no different than the one that wrote me off for dead in Nicaraugua ten years ago." Atlas sneered, his massive arms folded. " But then my whole team was expendable or we would have had a rescue team try to get us out. Instead we got wrote off the books and left to rot in a hellhole. That tends to make a guy change his outlook a bit, not that one of the company's golden boys would know." He stepped forward, pointing at William. " Do yourself a favor Will, and go home. The friendship we had years ago won't stop me from doing my job."
[Sparks]
" We'll help you with that, but don't worry about it. Just try not to draw attention to yourself." Ashley replied.
The other three were waiting in a dark blue jeep. Ashley motioned for Sparks to get in, explaining. " With the cops busy chasing the old man around, or looking for whoever just attacked those other three, we should be able to get a good look around"
The jeep made it's way through trafffic, stopping a few blocks from the park. As they all climbed out, Ashley nodded to the others. " You guys find out what you can at the park. Sparks and I will have a look around where Dim...Transit helped with the getaway."
"Who died and left you in charge?" Felicia sniped
"Will did, now do as she says." Tyler interjected.
( the perc roll and streetwise noticed nothing suspicious except that the security cameras tracked their movements)

*mutters under the breath 'i hate security cameras .. never know who's watching who with them.' *then waits while the bickering starts and hopefully ends*
'so whats with the coppertsuit dude , transit? *watching Ashley for a moment* 'down this spot here, I'll show you where he opened the whatever it was for what's her face went, but i didn't see her either, just him'
*leads the way, in a slight round about way and then points out the exact spot to Ashley where Transit was and where the ripple thing was .. and then to where Transit went after completing his part of the deal

Ashley half smiled." We used to go out together, but I haven't seen him in a couple weeks."
When they reached the right part of the alley, she looked around to make sure they are alone before transforming into her bear form and sniffed at the air Despite her montrous appearance her voice sounded almost mournful. " It was Dimitri all right. What the hell was he doing here?"
She started towards the fire escape before turning back " I don't recognized to other scent. Did you ever fig..." She spun on her heels just in time for her to get clocked . A beastial mountain of a mutant loomed over Ashley as she pulled herself back to her feet with a growl. Though she'd never seen the Brethren's enforcer Raig before, Sparks had heard enough stories to know it was him.
Ashley growled at Sparks. " Go, get the others, I'll handle him."
" You couldn't handle me before." Raig laughed, stepping forward.
"GO!" Ashley shouted, and the pair through themselves at each other.

"I'm no golden boy." *Says William softly* "You know that as well as anyone. And, as for your job, what is that? To enforce mob law?" *William's posture hasn't changed, very at ease... almost eerie to see an airborne at ease in front of a threat the size of Atlas... But then, William was at ease in front of a threat the size of German Panzer division... Something else that Atlas would know as well as anyone.*

'holyshii .... ' *backs up and vanishes faster than one would think on the inline skates. whipping along the back alleys on the track she lead ashley to the alley, slides to a stop and grabs at one of the arms on trevor and gasps 'ashley .. help .. fight .. come on' *then starts to haul on his arm.
*then leads the way once again to the area, the skates heating up as she starts again at a high speed and continues to try and get them to hurry
'come on .. its Raig of the Brethren .. hurry .. he's a tough nut in the first place, but he smacked her to the ground once already .. come on'
*proceeds to tug at an arm again trying to urge them to a faster speed .. and then stops and points down the alley where the fight was

" The mob? " Atlas laughed " Control Ops is a government sanctioned body being field tested thanks to the incident with the mayor pushing up our deployment timetable. A less than comforting smirk crept on his face. " And the job is to deal with meta threats to the general public, like a flaming senior citizen attacking a building full of corpses."
[Sparks]
Trevor tried to keep up as best he could as Sparks weaved her way back through the alleys, Raig, are you sure?".
When they finally get back to the scene of the fight after what seemed like the longest five minutes in history, the alley appears empty at first glance. After a moment, a groan from an overturned dumpster leads the pair of them to find Ashley beneath it. Trevor grabs hold of it, and with some help, pulls it off to reveal Ashley lying there battered. With a cough, she mumbles. " Damn, I hate that guy."
Trevor chuckles, helping her up." Damn, you look like you got hit by a train."
" He almost as big." Ashley forced, nodding to Sparks. " Why was he after you?"

"Well, as long as you're willing to admit they were dead before I got there, I'm happy. Besides, it got you guys here, didn't?" *William's smug grin indicating some grand scheme behind it.* "Is four all you've got? Or is Mara sneaking up behind me right now?"
*The smuggness doesn't disipate, and William stares back* "I have to admit, drawing you out was easier than I could have hoped." (BTW: any sounds of people sneaking around, during this cordial conversation?)

'after me? .. i dont know .. told you before that the Brthren wanted me with them. been trying to avoid them for the last couple of months. just heard rumors of him, but i know that was him. shoulda stayed to give you a hand before going for help'
*scans the alley, nervous now as the urge to flee blooms like a fire out of control.
'really dont like this place, i think they were in on it with the bint, and then they got rid of him.
*looks to assist ashley 'are you okay? .. i mean are you badly hurt? *then looks about again, knowing that she's useless now as she's on the knees trying to help

" Thats just what he said." Ashley groaned, using Sparks shoulder to pull herself to her feet. " Don't worry, he's long gone. I gave almost as well as I got."
" That doesn't make any sense. Why would they send that monster out after Sparks?" Trevor asked puzzled.
Ashley shrugged. " When does anything Denial does make sense. Hell, no one's even seen the guy's face before, let alone figure him out. " She grimaces slightly, rotating her right shoulder. " Lets go find Felicia and Ty."
[Silverfire]
" Who the hell is Mara?" Atlas shot back his brow arched. " There's more than the four of us, but there's no one by that name. You might even recognize some of them," He smirked before changing the subject, " and I hate to burst your bubble, but we weren't called in because of a flaming geezer. You're just an unwanted bonus. If we were here for you, I wouldn't have come out to meet you and give you fair warning as a show of respect for my elders." His smirk grew to a full blown smile.
[No sounds of anyone trying to sneak up]

"Sounds fair. Mara's the one that orchestrated the bombing in the park. The journalist alleged to have died was her." *Says William.* "Not the best leader. You'ld have done better than her. But that's neither here nor there. I'll save you the trouble, and pay a visit to the boss. Who's in charge of this." *William's voice takes on an acrid tone* "Government sanctioned body? I'll give your name for the reference, if there's a bounty."
