Alice follows Eric into the vehicle, not saying much. She stares out the window, not paying much attention to anyone else as she continues to think that this is a bad idea, and that she shouldn't be here. She should be at home, getting homework done. She thinks with a smirk 'I'll never complain about my boring life ever again' (tag)

William turns, and looks at Jason. "Yes, of course. You know old men and their confusion. But if she crashes that thing out of spite towards me, it's on your head." With that William climbs in the truck, sitting next to the two kids, smelling the pizza, noting to himself how high obesity rates are these days.

" Deal. But she'd aim for me first. Trust me." Jason replied as the pair went and got in the truck as Felicia started the engine. Felicia looked at Eric in the mirror. " Home."
The truck pulled away and made the way to the building used as a headquarters for Tyler's team. She parked the truck and motioned the others towards the waiting elevator. Felicia removed her coat, revealing her second set of arms as she slungh it over her shoulder. Ice whispered excitedly to Eric. " Do you see that?"
Jason saw the look in Alice's eyes and fell in step beside her. " Don't worry, everything will work out soon." He didn't sound convincing, but grinned as he added. " Besides, this is probably the only way you'd go out with a guy like me."

Alice's eyes widen a bit at the sight of Felicia's second pair of arms, but she tries not too stare too much. Instead, she looks around at her surrounds as they walk towards the building and get onto the elevator.
Alice smiles shyly, glancing at Jason out of the corner of her eye. "Oh, I don't know" she says softly "I'd have probably gone out with a guy like you if he'd asked me." Blushing furiously, she thinks to herself 'Dammit Alice, do you have to be so bloody obvious?' as she stares at the ground. (tag)

William looks at Jason in the light for the first time, getting an appraising eye on the suit. "So, that's what it looks like." He says, quietly. "And don't worry, I'm sure he'll ask like a proper genetleman eventually." William turns to face Alice , his pupil-less silver&black eyes showing in the light. "I'm William, and who might you be?"

Alice blushes a little bit more at William's words. Trying to re-compose herself, she answers "I'm Alice. Alice Weatherby. And you are?" she asks politely. (tag)

"William Black." William answers casually. "Weatherby, eh? Any relation to Alexandria Weatherby? You sound like you might be."

Blinking in surprise, Alice replies "She's my grandmother. Did you know her?" (tag)

William nods as he stepped into the elevator with them, hoping that Felicia doesn't have the urge to strangle him now. "I worked with her. Did she ever mention what she did in World War 2? In Europe?"

Alice blinks in surprise "No, Nana never talks about what she did in the war. She says it wasn't a very happy time for her, and she doesn't like to talk about it. What did you do?" she asks William quietly. (tag)

"The same things I can do now, actually." William answers. "But, can you do what your Nana did?" William leans over, and whispers very quietly "You grandmother could change her looks. And, she once told me she could move things with her mind. These sound familiar?"
William leans up, appraising the Atreyu and Ice. "And you two? I take it one's a hacker, and the other?" William watches Atreyu's tail, drawing his own conclusions. "Ever meet a girl by the name of Sparks?"

Alice jumps in surprise, as if William had goosed her and back up a bit, hitting the back of the elevator. Her mind reels as she thinks 'Nana could do it too?' she thinks frantically as she tries to calm herself down 'Why didn't anyone ever tell me? Why didn't Nana ever mention it to me?'
All at once, everything that had happened that day started to catch up with Alice. Being attacked by the police, the strangeness of everything from Felicia having two sets of arms to Williams very freaky eyes which seemed to have no pupils. She then notices that Eric has a tail and suddenly she starts to feel claustrophobic and panicky. Closing her eyes, she tries to calm herself down, breathing deeply and evenly. (tag)

"Woah!" Eric says as Felicia takes off her coat. "Thats awesomes!" Eric admires Felicias arms not paying much attention to Will untill he realizes he's being addressed. Eric watches William's eyes shift towards his "furry belt."
"I.... uhh. Well I'm nothing really. I'm pretty smart...." Eric tries to sound convicing, but realizes soon that he really doesn't. "I can run.... and I'm pretty strong for my size. Thats about it.... oh and I'm a pretty good scrapper..... Sparks?" Eric thinks for a moment "Nope. Never heard of her. Why do you ask?"

"No reason. I thought all you kids knew each other these days, with your cell phones, and pagers and... Public Displays of... no... Personal Digital... things." William's voice suddenly shows his age, especially in this attempt to show he knows all the modern technology. He leans against the elevator. "OK, it'll come out at some point. I may not look it, but I'm close to 100 years old. Started my mutant career with the British Airbornes fighting Nazis. You name it, I've done it. And probably with half the mutant organizations in the world. " He takes a deep breath. "So, name and good black ops, or latest war tool, and odds are I've heard of it, or even used it. But a cell-phone? Why anyone'ld pay more than a payphone for a call is beyond me."
