* Sierra turns the head to watch Kerry move past and then out of her range. a deep sigh as she starts to think things through follows his passing for his run. she then starts to contort her body more.
*the rest of the time now is spent in what would be uncomfortable for most people as she stretches out her torso. then she drops to her elbows and rests her chin in her hands while looking at her ankles up close. [think of the commercial for 'what would you do for a Klondike bar?' and the young girl is contorting her body so that the feet and body spin about while the chest stays in place on the ground.] not really paying a lot of attention to the immediate area, she continues to think and comes to grips with her situation and how she'll have to adjust to the lives of those about her.

Alice smirks at Dmitri "That's probably because you've drunk tea out of those barbaric tea bags. If you've had the good stuff, tea leaves, you'll love it." Alice fusses about the kitchen, measuring out tea leaves and putting them in the tea pot and pouring in boiling water to let them steep for a minute. Sitting down, she sighs and shrugs "I.. I don't know how to explain what I saw. It was horrible and violent. I guess it'll just take me some time to process it all." Alice traces around the pattern on the counter as she falls quiet, not sure of what else to say.

" Uh yeah, everything's fine, Isamu." Tyler replied quickly, his voice fading as he moved away. When Isamu looked back, Ashley was smiling," Now you understand why Jason says Ty's like an old mother hen." Her smile faded a bit as she continued. " Seriously, we hardly know each other, Is. I know I came on strong, but that's how I do everything. Why did you come with Tyler?"
" If you need someone to talk about it, it can't be anything worse than what I saw growing up back home." Dimitri offered, then smiled as he added," Or I can always spell off the better half so you can have a girl chat to forget the whole thing." He sniffed at the brewing tea, and curled up his nose. " Still smells horrid."
Sierra could feel the presence of the others in the house, but no one disturbed her exercising.
" Jason laid the papers down and stood up. " I better go find Alice and apoligize for putting her through that."

Sitting down next to Ashley he says, "Since I have been in Miami, I have had no one to talk. There were students in class, but none paid attention to me except to make fun. Then I was pulled into whatever is happening around William, and again no one spoke to me, except for you. Since that time you and I have spent alot of time together, and I feel that we have a special relationship. I really care about you Ashley, even in this short time that we have had. While I would never want to see anyone in danger, or hurt, that is doubly true for you. "
He sits and thinks for a moment, and he says, "Besides I gave you my word."

*after another 5 - 10 minutes of staying still, and only the risingand falling that shows she's breathing, she remains still like a statue. a part of her finally drifts to the meta's she senses inside .. and wonders IF she can sorta locate them in comparision to her personal location. as in .. who's the closest, who's ont he ground floor or how many are .. and how many are upstairs.
*knowing she has a long way to go with this self-discovery about herself, she recalls who she's copied. Trevor when he tried to fly her. Jason with his screaming energy bolts and then the field and speed. Craig with his vanishing act. finally Avery .. and his healing so similar to what Kristian did for her once. the rest? .. other than beingMeta's .. she has no clue what they can do. maybe its herfault for not being as open and friendly, but the itching was bothering her before. now? .. strangely its starting to die down.
...o0( is it because i'm copying them? .. or am i becoming .. numb to it? .. no, its still there, but i think its because of what makes me able to do what i can)

"Let her digest it first." William says. "Don't force yourself on her right now. Right now, you have a medical report to review and comment on for this evening." He says, motioning to the paper.

Alice shakes her head at Dmitri "No," she replies, "I don't think this is really the kind of thing Janey would understand or know how to cope with." Then she grins, realizing what he had meant, "Yeah, maybe some light-hearted girl talk would be the best thing to do for now." Alice sighs, "I don't know." Alice pours some tea into a cup and puts some milk in it and sips it, grateful for the warmth. "I'm still not used to all this violence, I guess."

*Sierra seems to rock once, the knees bending as the elbow rise off the ground, then in a fluid ~snap~ .. she regains her feet once again and brushes her hands off. then moves to the steps leading to the porch and then enters the kitchen.
*her eyes note a paled face and Dimitri's large shoulders near Alice, and then moves on with a nod, scooping up the photo album she left in the front room. she then heads up the stairs to her room, and in passing to Will and Jason she comments 'Kerry's out for his missed morning run. i'm going to my room. gonna read on the little balcony with the doors closed'
*she then eases past them and does as she says .. moving to the room and then the door closes behind her before she exits to the little balcony and sits with the photo album in her hands and goes thru the book one last time, pulling out the photos that hold her picture after the accident. with the pictures in hand, she summons up Trevor's fire and watches the pictures that might be used as blackmail burn up and all trace of hte mutation thats on pictures vanish as ashes on the wind.

" Allright." Jason replied, nodding with a defeated tone. He sat on the bed and started to take off his exosuit. " Can I have a little privacy?" His tone lost it's sarcasm as he added. " And can you at least tell Alice I'm sorry. I'll tell her myself later, but I think you're right. I better give her some space for now." Will's band-adio buzzed to life "< Will, an old beater just hauled up out front. Looks like the guy that turned down your offer last night>" Janie's voice whispered in his ear.
" Violence?" Dimitri smirked. " I don't know what Jason told you, but this is playground stuff. Try growing up in a warzone." He placed a hand on Alice's shoulder. " I'll go drag Janie from her computer screen and chase her down here.
Trevor got up and past Dim and Alice as the doorbell rang. He opened the door to reveal the big guy from the club the night before. With a thick Jamaican accent, he smiled. " Looks like I remembered the right address. Is it too late for me to reconsider, mon?"
From her seat on the balcony, Sierra could here the muffled familiar sound of Kristian's accent downstairs as bits of ash were caught by the slight breeze and blown away.
Avi looked at Craig and teased," You know thanks to you and your comic books, we're all gonna have to get used to picking spandex wedgies."
-----
Ashley smiled at Isamu's words, but quickly winced. With her teeth ground, she took his hand in hers. " Go get Tyler. I need a way to stop my changing. Oh god it hurts." She snarled, a tear running down her cheek.

Isamu runs to the door and calls, "Tyler, Ashley says she needs help to stop from changing. Is there anything you can do?"

*frowns slightly as she thinks she hears someone familiar. she just has the pictures from 10 years ago and older. nothing remains in the book of after the accident.
*the more she thinks about it, the more she swore she heard a familiar motor, then shakes the head and drops the photo album and looks up. ' ... is it really him? ... ' *as a sense of something like a second skin tickles her brain. ' ... Kristien? ... is it really him? is he here?'
*she moves to the door and then opens it, hoping her senses aren't playing tricks on her and then focuses on the red gemstone power of his and sees her body start to shift and then moves to the stairs faster. she then looks down to the front door and then as the skin reverts to normal she calls out 'Kristien, you came back .... ' *the tone of joy in the voice seems to chase away her gloominess. then her hands propel her up and over the railing and she twists about and slows her momentum with a touch on this wall and then lands on the floor below with deeply bent knees cushioning the drop.
*she stands again, now about 5 feet behind the guys at the door. the mouth trembles with raised hope, and then looks behind her and then up the stairs and simply states 'um ... whoops .. ? ' *then looks back to the front door again 'you gonna stay? ... maybe? ' ...o0(please ... please stay Kristien. i ... i want you to stay) *her fear of saying anything aloud just now, shows as her eyes water. she wipes the tears away and chews the lower lip now, watching and waiting. she stands and watches and waits for an answer.

Kristian's eyes shift to meet Sierra's and he gives her a lopsided grin before tossing her a set of keys. " Runs fine with a new carburator." He shrugged, holding his grin," What can I say Si, I missed your cookin'." He held his arms open, beckoning her.
Behind Isamu, he could hear Ashley growing more restless as Tyler grabbed a case from the top shelf of one of the cupboards and passed by Isamu. " Hold her." He said as he opened the case and took out a syringe. As he prepared to inject Ashley, he muttered," Sorry Ash."

*the looks that cross Sierra's face show a variety of emotionos .. fear is replaced with shock, then wonder and then finally outright joy as the words sink into her brain. 'you're staying? ... ' *then she moves, shifting sideways to pass between the two at the door and then into Kristien's arms .. and hugs him. face buried into his neck, she holds on and trembles

Isamu does his best to hold down Ashley while Tyler does whatever he does.
Although he has to hold her he does his best not to hurt her at the same time.

Alice nods at Dmitri "Ok." she replies as she continues to sip her tea quietly.
