[Renekin Skywalker]

*William leads him on a chase, still flaming, and, dodging, circling and duke, grabs the guy from the back, holding on, flaming nicely, not really saying anything.*

*pushing with one foot, moves with the mass of humanity until she's closer to one of her numerous boltholes .. then departs company with the pedestrians .. and then speeds up down one of the alleys that lead the way there

[tag-any]

(( OOC - somehow methinks that sparks is in for a whole world of hurt when and if she and torment cross paths again ))

Torment's voice echoes through Spark's mind. " go ahead and run. You're just making it fun for us. And your new friends can't hide you either." The voice trails off as Sparks put enough distance between them.

[Silverfire]

" C'mon old man, quit the games." The younger mutant replied looking over his shoulder and let out an ear shattering screech at Will. [ EE: directed sound attackTake only 4 pts dmg, but roll for the deafening effect)

*william lets go of the kid out of instinct. (however, I don't know what to roll... so... d4: 3 d6: 2, d8: 5 D10: 8, D12:11 D20:20 (nat) D100: 28, take your pick)*

(Also, I'm sure the kid'll be burned nekkid soon enough.)

*rolls along the streets, one hand in the pocket to hide the slingshot thats still out .. and then looks up at the old church that most dont attend now .. and moves closer to it and stops at the stairs and stares up at the old building

'maybe i can ask for .. uhh .. whats it called? .. sancutary? .. thats it ..

*then glances about once again and then starts up the stairs leading to he door

Will's ears rung from the sonic blast, but thankfully he could still hear as the kid circled around, squaring off to face Will again. He rubbed at the scorched and crumbled reamans of the back of his jacket. " You bastard, you owe me a new jacket."

A roar of laughter came from below. " Hurry up, Klaxon. We're done here."

Klaxon turn his attention to the larger mutant below,who was closing the lid on a dumpster. " Shut up, Panek. You only had to put up with the barbequed brat." He sneered at Panek, paying even less attention to Will , as his companion burst into laughter again.

[ ooc , because I forgot to give you what to save against, I'll give you a ffee pass on this one]

[Sparks]


As she made her way up to the door, there seems to be no one following her. As she opens the door, see she Father Aucoin just inside, looking up from sweeping the floor to see who his guest is. " Hello. May I help you?" He says warmly, but glances at Sparks feet. " I'll have to ask you to remove your skates before you come in. They might damage the floors."

[shiivster]

' uhh ,, sanctuary? .. i can ask for it right?' *not budging from the door just yet in case the good father says no .. *

*looks behind her to the streets one last time .. and then back as she bends to slip out of the blades and into the sneakers that come from the large pockets of the jacket

*looks up at the father 'i'm in trouble, but i dont wanna bring it to you .. so if you say no, i'll understand and go find somewhere else to hole up in .. *then backs up a pace, making sure that most of her is still in the shaadows cast by the building as she watches his face carefully

[tag-Father A]

[[ ooc - streetsmart roll .. ewwww .. uhh .. 40/20 ]]

[Renekin Skywalker]

*William takes advantage of this distraction to deflame, slip away, out of view, hiding on the top of a building behind a vent shaft, watching for them to leavem, and listening to them talk.*

" Another one, eh?" The priest smirked, turning to glance at another figure trying to remain out of sight. " I'm going to have to start charging rent." Brushing his hands off, he motioned for Sparks to follow him. " Come in then, Michael can show you where the rooms in the basement are. It isn't much, but you can't expect a five star hotel you understand. " The priest smiled, giving the impression that this was fairly common.

michael stepped from where he was hiding and motioned to sparks to follow him before turning and walking away towards what looked like a closent door. He opened the door then lifted a trap hatch to the basement and motioned down, not making a sound.

[Silverfire]

" What do you mean, he's gone?" Panek growled up at Klaxon.

" That's what I said." Klaxon replied, pivoting around, looking for Will's hiding place.

" Fine, let's go before the twerp wakes up. " and the two left

[shiivster]

'thanks father A'

*then follows the silent one known as michael to the closet door .. and then descends into the basement without another word .. the skates in one hand, the other towards the front were she can't quite see

[tag-any]

((descent into madness?))

[Renekin Skywalker]

*William smirks to himself. Amateurs. They'ld be dead in a day if I was armed. Why didn't bring a gun anyways? Oh yeah, no-one trusts the mutant tool. After a second, William whisks down to the dumpster, lifting up the lid.*

"Trevor, you alive in there?" *he whispers.*

((Madness? Well, maybe not. But a descent into grumpiness, at least.))

*follows michael when he shows her to the sleeping area, and then settles down on the bed, and thinks of the past and wonders if there is any way to recall the past thats been blocked somehow.

*then stretches out on the bed, corsses the ankles as the hands go behind the head and the eyes close to try and dig deeper into her shrouded past. the word of 'madam' echoing in the mind, but triggers nothing of the past.

*then without trying to, settles into a sleep, feeling somewhat safer, after curling up into the fetal position with the hands tucked under the cheek

[Sparks]

After a few minutes to get situated on the beanbag like mattress on the floor, Sparks hear the light steps of Michael enter the alcove she was in. ' Sorry to intrude, but I've got some lunch if your hungry. '

It takes a few seconds to sink in, but she realizes that she is hearing the soft spoken voice in her mind, much as Torment had done to her earlier in the evening . ' It isn't much, but your welcome to some if you like. ' The oddly complected teen turned and left the room.

[Silverfire]

Trevor doesn't respond to the whisper, spurring Will to peer inside. Despite the dim light from a streetlight at the end of the alley and the fading daylight, he can make out a body lying on its back there amongst the trash. Closer inspection proves it to be Trevor as he breathes out a pained moan from his unconscious state. His shirt is torn away, revealing horrible scarring from burns of some sort that end in skin grafts at the base of his neck and his shoulders. blood dripped from several open wounds, especially one cut acrossed his forehead.

[shiivster]

'you're .. you're a mind talker ? .. thats really straange .. someone is after me that can do the same thing .. but luch would be cool .. i don't eat much ..

*then smiles up at michael 'thanks for sharing .. i appreciate the offer"

[tag-any]

[Renekin Skywalker]

*William activates the tracking beacon, and leaves it with Trevor. At which point, he flies off keeping low on building tops, as he attempts to track down the people who attacked him, figuring they stalled him to keep him from getting to Maria. Thereby leading to the conclusion that they know where she is.*
