*makes no effort to stop herself from leaving the cabin .. and moves towards the forest nearby .. and then stops to look at one of the trees .. and then looks up and scratches between the shoulder blades 'i wonder if those bumps are gone or still there? .. oh well .. '
*circles the tree once .. and then starts to move up the side of it and then once at a decent height .. starts to move about in the branches, trying to stay in shape in any way she can for now. handwalking, backflips and the various other stunts that have served her well in the past
*seems to be withdrawn into herself as she works out. the thin body moving this way and that in the upper branches. the fact that she's muttering the words of some inane song isn't really helping her moves any either

" She's coming around, slowly. We just need a way to get her to open up, or get someone to scoop that melon of hers out and put everything back in the right place." Ty replied, nearly spilling his drink after an elbow to the chest from Fel, who only glared at his 'what did I do look. " I think that Dexy is our best bet for now though. They sound like they've got a bond, unless you know a better way."
Felicia changed the subject. " what do you mean, Trev's coming around? You got him to use his powers? How?" She sounded amazed.
Yeah, sure, I could go for that. Mikey replied to Alice, doublechecking his connections, sputtering This should work
Trevor lands with a thud behind Maria, reverting to normal so he doesn't set the grass on fire. He rubbed his head sheepishly. " Uh hey. Sorry for staring like that when you got home."

"I'm not sure." William answers casually. "I was just coasting around, thnking, when I spotted him behind me, flying. So, I took advantage of it." He turns to Tyler with a smirk. "He knows more than he lets on."

Alice nods at Michael and thinks 'Ok. Thanks. I appreciate that a lot.' Alice watches closesly, curious to see how ths was going to work, says out loud "Oooh, this is really cool! I hope it works! Then we can finally see what's on that disk." (tag)

[ hmm .. thought i ws still in the tree .. *shrugs* acts on the info then, no biggie ]
'huh? .. don't worry about it .. didn't realize .. you were .. where you were .. s .. anyways. looks like you were burning off energy. feel better about it? the using your power stuff i meant' *moves to stand by a tree trunkand then starts to twitch as she rubs, trying to hit the itchy spot and starts to smile as she does hit it.
' ooooo ... nothing like a good back rub huh? .. *gold eyes looking at Trevor. 'hey. just wanted to say thanks . you, well .. you iknow and i appreciate it' *then before she can back out, steps close and give Trev a quick hug, then backs off and no sign of her action shows on the face
*then bends over and the legs kick into the air as she tries to walk about the cabin on the hands, forgeting about how gravity works 'so, did you kick his butt? or do you need to work a bit more about it?'

" Not even close, but Will's got a few years of practice on me." Michael shrugged. He smiled sheepishly. " I guess you could call it burning off energy. Never thought of it that way. But yeah, I guess. At least I'm not afraid of hurting him." His mood darkened. " Ashley told me you hurt someone with your powers when you first got them too. I'm sorry, I know how it feels. Anyways," He toed the ground a bit as he changed the subject, watching her acrobatic display," maybe when we get back to the city, we could... , umm... you know, do something? Maybe you could teach me to skate or something." His face flush with embarrassment, he tried to hide it behind his hand.
Watching the computer, Michael fiddled with some of the components at the last moment. That looks better. Give it a try, Eric. He glanced at Alice Everybody cross your fingers .
" You gotta remember that Trev wasn't afraid of his powers until he caused an accident." Tyler reminded him. " Then he just shut everything off. Everytime I've tried to get him to open up, he just shuts himself off. You have no idea how frustrating he is at times. This is the most I've heard tell of him opening up and even having fun."
Felicia butted in. " Not to mention he's got a crush on Maria. I think that's a bit of a motivator."
Ty looked at her a bit surprised, before looking to Will. He chuckled. " And here I wasn't sure he was..." He never got to finish before Felicia cuffed him again. " You're awful."

Alice grins at Michael and holds up her hand, showing him that she has crossed her fingers. She then waits for Eric to start things up. (tag)

William grins. "Awww, such playful banter. Now, to business." He looks around. "Wraith 'hires' Dmitri to help with the assasination and ship out the hired gun. Which makes more sense as to why me. Though I don't know why Felicia was targetted, unless it was to get at you, Tyler. Clearly they were trying to tie up loose ends by implicating me and Felicia, and killing Kris."
"At the same time, Reno hires that gang to catch Maria. Now, Reno's also involved with the power brokering with the mobs to solify and justify the coup. Which means Wraith and Reno are, if only indirectly, in cahoots. I say indirectly, because Reno should have known I was in town. And I suprised her."
"Atlas works for the new Control group. At the same time, McCotler is after us, and Maria. Which means that Reno was in cahoots with McCotler's group. Probably used Maria and Dexandrea as tests."
William takes a breath. "McCotler's in charge of Control, and the SCRET is silenced at the same time, which means was Wraith's doing. So, Wraith is in cahoots with the people starting Control, and the Coup."
"So, we have three players we know for sure: Reno, Wraith and McCotler. The new Mayer would make a potential fourth. Did I miss anything?" He finishes, looking between the two.

After a couple of 'failed connection' messages, the computer established what it thought was a working link to the internet. The file on the disc began to run, but stopped as it came up with a message to enter an encryption key. Michael leaned in passed Eric and tapped in a series. worth a try. The disc's serial number has the same number of characters He explained.
After a delay, the screen turned blue for a moment and media player started, with a video titled Sur_14-0305_06 ready to play.
" Not unless Terri's old man is tied into this too." Tyler replied as Felicia stood up and took her own chair. " Otherwise that's a personal issue I can deal with later." He paused as Jason walked by the doorway. " So where do you want to start? I mean you wanted to put Ashley in charge, but lets face it Will, you've got the experience to make these desicions."

*kicks the feet and then springs to the feet and twists at the waist both ways for a moment 'yeah, accidents and death. seem to go hand in hand, huh? wanna know what happened? i didn't know what the tingle was, threw the toy, Jackie caught it and blew up. enough of the past right?'
*looks away as the hands brush idley at the pants, and then looks back. no sign of the pain or anything in the face now. 'so, you wanna learn to skate? well? lets see the kind of moves you got then' *moves away about 5 feet with a few crazy dance like moves and then grins at him 'well? gonna show me or do i have to chase you about and do something kooky?' *pulling a leaf off a tree and then it starts to sizzle as the grim gets a funny look to it, then it fades as the leaf is let go 'forgot. Ty said no use of my powers, but the city sounds cool. could take you on a tour that no one else would know about. you look like the braver sort' *the grin shaky and then starts to fade as worry starts to sink in

William sits for a minute, thinking. "Jason, can I talk to you for a second?" He asks, seeing Tyler's younger brother come in.
"We start," He says to Tyler, "With the most convenient sources of answers and go from there."
And he waits for Jason to arrive.

'don't worry .. the moves don't count. just a fancy way of covering the ungraceful falls that will happen. thats all. *floundering as she sees the reaction on Trevor's face, and figures he's gone red because of her words. 'no real worries. right? yeah, nothing really done .. '
*seems to be talking to no one at the moment, then the head shakes 'so. whats it like to fly? might not know how to fight, but i know enough to stay .. uhh .. ' *sadly for anyone else looking at her. no one can tells she's about as red as Trevor was.
*then stops and stares at the ground, then looks up Trev's face blank again. 'well, it might not work for you. but the offers there if you wanna fight dirty. save your honor and all that. let me know. maybe learn to carry something like a chain. i did, left it behind when i was wearing someone else's clothing' *voice trail's off, and she continues staring at the ground.

Alice looks at the screen, with a grin when she asks "Well, we might as well see what all the fuss is about, right?"
(Will) Jason stops and says to Will "Um, sure, just give me a minute. I have to recharge my suit." He heads to his room and, a few minutes later, wheels back to where Will is waiting. "So," Jason asks "What did you want to talk to me about?" (tag)

William looks over at Jason as he wheels in, adjusting his slouch to let him in. "Jason, why didn't McCotler bring you into his little Control group?" He asks, very casually, watching both him and Tyler (out of the corner of his eye) for a reaction. "That suit didn't come free, and I doubt he would have had it made then just toss it out the window for you to catch."
