Please, permit me to clarify. William is asking Kerry, Kristien or Sierra what's going on. If they are not in the kitchen, then he goes to the space they are occupying to find out what's going on. Whereupon, he does ask "What's the story?"

*body tenses at the strangers comment from the doorway, before looking that way. as the trembling starts again, she worries that she'll panic totally.
's..s .. sorry ... ' *looking to the table in front of her after addressing the gent in the doorway. the fear thats growing inside her is soon at the point of her shoulder joints slide out of place, as she's trying to evade this house and the secret police that brought them here.
*looking up finally from staring at the table, Sierra finally meets the gaze of the person across the table from her. a random thought of using Kristien's power to bust out the window or thru a wall crosses her mind briefly, and then its gone as the gaze drops again and hiccups.
'Kristien took me there .. he could have played ball, but .. ' *looks at Kristien, the adoration shows briefly and then fades as she looks to the one in the doorway ' .. but i seem to get into fights every day. this one today .. another one yesterday .. .. but i don't like to see kidnappings happening. one happened outside on the streets and no one helped then .. so .. i just didn't want to read up on her waking up dead in a ditch... ' *looks back down and interlaces her fingers to hide the shaking.
' ... when the other guy did the .. whatever sparky thing from his fingers and blinded the bad guy .. i just kicked him ... and then ... i figured that he couldn't get away if he lost his foot, but Kristien pulled me off .. and i booted him again, and he passed out. then we got brought here, so am i under arrest? ... cause if i .. i just wanted to help. i got a job to get to in the morning. i like my job. so what am i charged with?' *and then goes quiet and still, waiting for the horrific sound of the cell door slamming shut and the key getting tossed away.

"We have no reason to charge you. You are here for your own protection. Did either of you see the kidnapper prior to the incident? Was he talking with anyone, besides the young man in the other room." William asks, looking the two over.

'no sir ... ' *shaking the head rapidly, then wipes at the eyes again with a sniffle. its obvious she's struggling to get herself under control. then after looking at the tabletop again briefly, looks back up again.
'didn't really see the sparkler shooter guy either until .. well ... i almost sat in his lap on the way back to the table ... ' *then cringes before looking up at Kristien and concludes with 'i told you about it, i just dont want people near me .. that asll .. and the way was blocked to the table and i had to go about the outside of the place and then these other people sorta stood up and moved towards me .. and while backing up .... ' *inhales briefly* '... to avoid them i kinda almost sat in his lap, but i didn't and i went back to the table and .. well you didn't really kinda mind .. but ... well ... '
*gets a crushed look now as she stares at the table top, her mouth getting away from her once again brings up the only recourse she can think of .. and eases the contraption out of the band of her pants, saying that much, she slips it into the mouth and then bites down and the 'click' is heard, as she now takes matters into her own hand to stay quiet.

William looks at Kristien. "Do you have anything to add? This is important to the ongoing investigation into the Mayor's murder."

Craig sat down and began writing his statement. There wasn't much he could tell since he'd only been with Vance and the others for a short time. He was sure to add that Vance had claimed to have done this particular kidnapping scheme many times before. Craig put every detail he could think of including addresses of meeting spots. When he finished, he looked for William. He hoped that with his statement he would be able to leave and try to restart his life (again). Somehow he knew it wasn't going to be that easy. From what he'd gathered from the conversations around him this was bigger than he first knew. Perhaps it would work to his advantage. Last time he'd hoped for that, it didn't work out as well. But, hope was all he had at this particular moment and he would hold on to that for as long as he could.

Kristian gave Sierra an annoyed look. "Take that out and give it to me, or I'll take it out myself. " He scolded before turning to Will. " No man, she about covered things. We just got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. the only guy I saw him wit was that other guy." Kristian paused before adding, " No wait, I think he made a cellphone call. Does that help, mon?"
" I'm afraid Mr. Dexter is unable..." the nurse replied before Jason came on the phone," gimme that damned thing and get out!" He souted with the receiver held away before speaking into it." Alice? Is that you? Get me out of here, some doctor I've never seen signed the orders for them to try to prep me for surgery. I said I don't want to go through with it."
" Oh, hey Is." Ty replied, caught off guard." Ashley what? She knows she needs to restrain herself until the moon passes. Did you guys listen to her?" He groaned in disgust. " Yeah, I think I know where she'll head. You want me to go have a look, or are you just after directions?"
Dimitri pounded down the stares quickly and shot a glance and a smirk at Will. " You're no fun, grandpa." Kerry came back to the common room and Avi said, " We can go get the cars, if the big russian tagged the place."
"Croatian" dimitri corrected. " And I did mark the parking lot."
"Whatever." Avi replied." Will, we'll be back in an hour." He shook his finger at Kerry, " Stay out of trouble."
Kerry shot a dirty look at Trevor when he chuckled.

"Jason? Who signed you up for the surgery? That's ridiculous! Is Tyler there? Can he talk to them?" Alice asks, sounding shocked. "ok, I'll be there as soon as I can!" Alice hangs up the phone and runs to Will, and tells him "I have to go to the hospital. I'll be back as soon as I can." Alice then runs out to the nearest vehicle and hops in and starts for the hospital. (tag)

*visibly pales as the eyes go wide with horror and turns to stare at Kristien .. the eyes saying [you wouldn't .. oh god .. you really do mean it] .. then looks at the table again .. and with massively trembling hands raises the fingers to the mouth and slips them inside .. and then a couple of smaller clicks are heard before something is removed and held over the shoulder .. as she starts to cry silently.
' ... here ... ' *spoken really quietly, now shaking so hard with fear and panic now that she's unaware that to wipe th contraption off she's pulled one of the gloves off and left it about it as she hands it to Kristien. the strange tattoo of .. snakeskin shows clearly now

" It's okay." Kristian said in a calming tone and placed his arm around Sierra's shoulders. " Look, we just want to go home. We don't know anything about what was going on other than Sierra wanted to help and got a little too zealous. How long do we have to stay here, mon?" He looked at Will, waiting for an answer.
Jason never had a chance to reply when Alice hung up. The only vehicle she found was Felicia's Suburban. Before long, she finds herself pulling away from the beachhouse, a nasty vision of herself and Jason holding security at bay as they backed out of the hospital began to play over and over in her mind as she drove.

William looked between Kristian and Sierra, his mind still running through different scenarios. "You are not suspects in the attempted kidnapping, and are not being held as such. You are free to go at any time. Trevor, let me know if they leave."
With that, he turns and heads up to Janey. When he gets there, he says "What is the status on the tracking bug?"
OK, so that I can catch up here: WIlliam's upstairs with Janey, Dmitri, Kerry and Avery are out getting the cars, Isamu's on the phone somewhere, Trevor's in the livingroom/kitchen, as are Craig, Kristian and Sierra, Alice is racing off to see to Jason, Tyler's somewhere, just like Werebear Ashley and kidnapped Felicia.

*tears continue to slowly and silently spill from Sierra's eyes. the trembling increases as she hears the scary one start to move away. the paling face turns to look at Kristien and the eyes are rapidly loosing touch with reality in her rising terror of whats happening.
' ... ' *the mouth opens to say something but nothing emerges as the eyes now go blank. the heavy shaking is gone, along with the tears, and only a stunned stupor on the face shows. she continues to blink from time to time. her gaze is unfocused on anything in front of her.
*after about 15 seconds, she takes a deep breath and then drops her gaze to her intertwined fingers and then recalls ' police for metas ', and comments quietly 'dad's gonna disown me for getting into trouble with the police' *before turning into the warm body thats holding her and shuddering with more tears, buries her face into Kristien's neck and holds on tighter. sadly unaware that the sleeves ride back on the shirt, partially revealing both forearms.

Alice shakes her head as she drives towards the hospital confused as to where this vision was coming from. 'I never used to have visions before. Is this a new power?' she wonders as she pulls into the parking lot and parks the Suburban before running into the hospital searching for Jason. (tag)

" It all depends, Is. Sometimes Ash can control it better than others." Tyler replied. He paused before continuing. " Tell you what, I'll pick you up and we'll track her down. I'm at the firehouse now, so I can be there in twenty minutes or so. I need to talk to Will anyways."
Kristian merely held Sierra to try to calm her as Trevor gave Will an " Uh huh." He sat down acrossed the table from them. " It's not that bad, and we're not offically police. So what does that lightshow do besides blind people?" He asked Craig as something else grabbed his attention.
Kristian cleared his throat. " Staring not polite, mon."
Trevor nodded sheepishly and looked away from Sierra's markings, blushing a bit. " Sorry."
" Nope." Janey replied, pointing towards a viewscreen. Not since you made the drop. It moves around a little bit, but hasn't left this building since it arrived. I checked the address, it's an apartment complex." she picked up a notepad and handed it to Will. " Mac left this for you. It read:
looking for an update on how things are working out. Have two new problems for you. One, two of my agents are MIA, one of them last seen in Miami. If he has switched sides, it might explain your bug. Two, an old rival of yours has shown up on the radar. Records show that you took care of Photon just after WWII, but apparently he either survived and bided his time or we have a copycat. Either way, watch your back.
" Oh, and Jason's brother called for you but didn't leave a message." she added, studying the packet of crystals that Avi had found and handed off to her.
------
The hospital was much slower than it had been earlier. At least until Alice reached the 'meta' ward. Inside the soundproof doors was chaotic as security had been called in to deal with an unruly patient, their stun batons drawn as they edged towards the door. A nurse scampered from the room dragging a wheelchair behind him. A second nurse flew through the doorway, forced out by a blast of energy. Jason's enraged bellow slowed the sec men's advance, " Leave me the hell alone! All I want is my chair back so I can get out of here. I don't give a damn what so doc upstairs says. no operation!"
[tag]
Yup, thats everybody accounted for except Mac and the rest of the agents in Atlanta. Well, good guys anyways...
