"Well looks like you've been around. So your 100 huh? You've lived for an entire century... I wonder what the girls were like back then..."

Jason blush a bit too at Will's comment, but didn't interrupt as they spoke. As the elevator reached the third floor, Tyler met them in the hallway. " It's about time you got back, I was starting to wonder if I was gonna have to come find you. But by the looks of things, I'm gonna have to go shopping instead. This is turning into a pound the way everyone brings back strays." He grinned
Jason scowled at Tyler. " Good to see you too, Ty." He turned to Will as Felicia stepped to Ty and told him to shut up with a kiss. " You've worked with everyone? Then I guess you must know Dylin MacColter from the NSA? He the one who put Control together." The name sets off warning bells in the back of Will's mind, and Ty let's out a menacing groan obviously recognizing the name as well.

As Eric steps off the elevator he starts to look around without asking. "Nice plan you got here." He looks to Ty when he says the Strays comment "I take offence to that." He looks to Ice then to Felicia. "Hey Amazon Chick I was wondering if you have a computer with a secure network... very secure." He puts emphesis on the last secure. "We have somethings we need to do."

William looks at Jason, then Tyler. "Where's an act of god when you need it? MacCotler? Well, it explains why the likes of Atlas are working for the new Control." William's mind runs through all of the clues, trying to piece it together. "Was he the one force out of the US MPs for that corruption thing?" William asks Tyler eventually, as he steps out of the elevator.

Alice follows the crowd quietly, since she doesn't recognize any of the names they are talking about. She puts her hands in her pockets, and wonders what the hell she's doing there as she looks around. She's tempted to jump back into the elevator and leave, and she considers doing so as the others talk.

"And where are Ashley Sparks and that green kid? Have they not come back yet?" William asks, looking around the place, and making room for everyone to come off.
He makes his way to a chair and sits down, knowing it's Felicia's or Tyler's jobs to welcome everyone in.

" Yeah, that was him." Tyler replied. " That piece of...., he's the biggest anti-meta bigot I ever met. Worse yet, he used to be in charge of us and thought it was great if we killed each other off on missions. How can Atlas work for him?"
" Because he offers a helluva lot of cash." Jason replied as he snatched the pizza boxes from Ice and carried them into the next room, obviously a dining room. " Hawaiian?" He shouted. " What the hell is this?"
Felicia scowled at Eric. " My name is Felicia, and this is Tyler. And yes, we have a computer system. You can use it in the morning" Tyler added. " Trevor is using it right now, he'll be a while."
Tyler looked at Will. " Haven't heard from Ashley yet, but she's a big girl and she know the phone number if she's in over her head." He motioned every one in and quickly gave a tour, showing everyone around, including a couple spare rooms for more guests. As they made their way back to the dining and kitchen area, Ty grabbed Jason by the shoulder and corraled him into the attached conference room and closed the door. Felicia sighed as they did and looked at Alice. " That could get ugly, if you hear furniture flying around, try to stop them. I have to check on Trevor." She picked up a pice of the now cold pizza and headed down the hall towards the bedrooms.

Upon hearing all this, William sluches further into the chair. "I should have killed that idiot when I had the chance." He grumbles.
"OK, you three, Alice, and you two kids, come here, have a seat. I figure you need to be filled in on what's going on, here. Especially since things are getting steadily worse, it seems."

Glancing back at the conference room with a worried look on her face, Alice sits down near William. Before Eric and Ice get there, she mutters quietly to William "My eyes aren't really brown. Well, they used to be, but they're not anymore."

Eric smirks at Ty's comment about the hawaiin pizza. As Will addresses them Eric takes a seat next to Ice. "Hey old guy. We do have names and just becuause we're kids doesn't mean you have to addresses us as such." Eric obvious has a tone of defiance in his voice. "Just because we're young nobody treats us as adults. I've been on my own for as long as I can remember and I've always been treated like a kid. Which is crap. My Name is Eric and this is Iceman. You can addresses us by that! Or better yet if you plan on sticking around and not dying on us call me Atreyu." After he vents a little bit he sits back in his seatand rocks back and for in it waiting for Wills reprisal.

"Eric and Iceman will be sufficient for my purposes. Though, if you had a real name, Iceman, that would serve even better. Hero nicknames are really quite clichéd. As is 'old man' because, believe it or not, you're not the first to think of it. Nor of the 'treat me like an adult' routine. Though, you can rest assured that how I treat you has nothing to do with age." William's voice is very laid-back, and doesn't really show any annoyance with Eric, though the undertones speak to his authority.
William crosses his feet and stretches. "Now, to the point: the city of Miami is in the midst of a coup. Any questions?" William's voice is still deliberately calm and even. Even while he's talking, he's keeping an ear to the conference room.

Alice frowns, puzzled. "What do you mean, a coup?" She clarifies "I mean, I know what a coup is, but who would do that? Why? What would they have to gain from it?"

"Sorry to butt in but whoever said it was a hero name? Whoever said I was a hero?" This obviously his some nerve with Eric. "F.Y.I that is. Now you can continue your conversation about Miami being in danger." Eric starts going through his bag looking for something to entertain himself with. pulling out his mini-laptop he tosses it to Ice. "Here have some fun." He grabs his books that he has yet to finish reading and begins to read.

William sits quietly, watching Eric and Iceman fiddle around. "I can wait longer than you can." He says softly. "Though I doubt Alice has the patience." He doesn't say anything more until the books and computer are put down, but, instead, watches them without really showing anything, but a bemused smirk, like the kids think that this kind of thing would really annoy him.

Eric looks over his book. "You can continue. My ears are still open."
