Welcome to Gaia! ::

He punched the screen despite it being holographic. "Let me in you damned thing!" He banged on it a couple of more times to see what it would do. After he finished banging on it he backed away a little bit and stood ready to fight if needed. "I only want in to this place cause I been wandering this damned place for the past like six or so days..."

The darkness most visibly ticked off Omega, who came down to the floor again and started snarling at the nearest window. Zeno and Sho seemed more or less baffled by the sudden darkness, and Slayer simply observed what he could. It was probably all right to say most of them recognized it; and they had little reason to attack it out of paranoia. Mastema stood up from his spot. "I would not suppose you can tell it to go elsewhere?" The telepathic voice had been directed at Micha, since he seemed to be one of the creature's constant foci of attention. Still, Mastema doubted that would be enough.

Zio responded passively to Holy. "Unacceptable. Present security conditions prohibit any entries and exits. Repeat, please leave immediately or risk reprimanding"

Thanatos was now riding the elevator to the 98th floor. He had a good chance of coming across Nana on his way to the Mind.

*It was unlikely that the creature could hear them inside of the sealed up Mind of the tower, thusly Omega's snarling would be in vein. One could only wonder what Mastema exspected Micha to do. It wasn't likely that the boy could do anything that the creature would be able to notice from inside the tower. Plus there was an uncertainty of what might happen, should the boy be let out to "tell it to go elsewhere". With Mastema standing, he was no longer paying attention to Trilla, so she instead decided to focus on Eecheb. He was looking at the door now, and what window he could see from either side, and Trilla was looking at him. If Mastema didn't being paying attention to Trilla shortly, she would probably join Eecheb under the table. It wasn't as if there was much else to do right now... though, now Trilla was getting thirsty. Perhaps she could find her glass if she decided to follow after Eecheb. Meanwhile Nana was now about half way up the stairway, perhaps a step or two farther. A small huff made it past her lips, she was determined to make it back up to the room*

--__--;

::Tyr would slowly move up to his feet sliding the chair back a bit. He would study his surroudings quickly figuring out exactly what was going on. It was likely his friend from the past, he would begin to look about the room for an exit. His hand would move down to his sword meanwhile his cool skin would begin to let off a slight frost. He turned quickly to Mastema after studing his surroundings.::

Transport me outside... I'll deal with this creature.

*Since Trilla and Eecheb hadn't really been paying attention, they couldn't have known, the darkness currently surrounding the tower was caused by the creature they had seen that one occassion in the west of the citadel. Without seeing a huge yellow and red piercing eye, they would continue to know no better. However, Mastema had said things were over. So-- they were free to go? Needless to say, that was.... well, it. A sudden and unexpected surprise visit was ending the conference earlier than it needed to be? Pity... Nana was almost back to the conference room again, so she could have her chance to say something. Would that chance be taken away from her before she was given it? Nana was probably about seven steps away from the door now. Close enough to hear speech with the raised voices in the room. The children had done well not to cause too much trouble while Nana was gone. Tyrsais still seemed to be uneasy with the creature around, as always. His first response was to kill what ever it was now, and ask questions later. The creature was not harming the tower in any way, it was not crushing it or breaking any windows.... this time. It was simply..... there. There was no way to tell if Zenogais' plan would work, or any of the others. With Mastema's decree that the children could leave, they would all, in their own way begin to move towards the door from what ever location they were currently at. Trilla would toss a glare back to Tyrsais before following after her brothers. The door open, they began to decend the stairs, easily catching sight of their mother on the way down*

^__^
Hello, my dears. Where are you off to?

Trilla: 4laugh Papa said we could go play!

Eecheb: .___., | ...........

Micha: . . .

*Eecheb was rather quiet for once, something was still bothering him. So, Nana would give them all a small pat as they passed by. If things outside were still to dangerous, then Zio wouldn't let them outside. The children couldn't go outside of the barrier without adult supervision anyhow, so as far as things going on outside of the barrier, Nana didn't have to worry to much about that either*

^__^
Oh I see. Well then, don't get into any trouble all right?

*Nodding, more or less to agree the children continued on their way down, while Nana continued to make her way up. Mastema could probably see her from there, and Nana could see a bit of Omega's tail and more or less everyone standing, possibly to leave. From what she could see from her place, seven steps down, a sort of heavy curtain was around the room. maybe to make the holograms more visible? Little did she know it was the shadow creature, brought into the citadel by Micha on an out of barrier adventure when all was pitch black for days*

>.>

Is-- the conference over already?

o.o !

*Well, this was the first Nana had heard of the creature. When did it appear? How long had it been inside the citadel? How did it get past the barrier? Obviously these and several more questions graced Nana's mind almost immediately. Amorphous? That was like-- well... never mind. As for what was in the tower... well, there were people, and there was food for starters*

o.o;
H--how did it--? When did it--? But, what?

*The children moved aside to let Thanatos pass. He'd likely run into Nana on his way up to the room again since she was already there more or less. What was going on now? At least Thanatos was back if anything, and he seemed uninjured. Eecheb would take a sudden left into their shared room, and immediately found his way to his bed. He must not have been feeling well. Trilla was still thirsty, and hadn't had much of the water that was present at the conference table. It was likely she would head down to the cafeteria to get something to drink. So that just left Micha... Both he and Trilla would board the elevator together, they might as well. Whether or not Micha choose the cafeteria or elsewhere for his destination was his own buisness*

Eecheb: .___.,

Trilla: ~.~

Micha: . . .

*The piece of Cole that was around Nana might have noted that yes she did seem warn, however the reason for that level of wear he would not discover for now. Cole was another one of those 'special' people. He had to be, in order to see Nana. Regular humans couldn't see her, afterall she was a being that by many standards did not exist. It was more or less something natural for Nana to not be seen by people. Other creatures, animals, those with certain special abilities... some of them could see her. Why... who knows? The whisps following the children would for now, go unnoticed, but who knew for how long. If there was one hovering around Eecheb, it would find him already under his covers. They would move frequently, Eecheb was restless, fidgetty and uneasy... there was something going on but for now, no one knew what*

So far everything felt not-normal normal enough. Whatever that shadowy thing was it hadn't brought the tower down and no one really felt worried, so Cole began to relax. When uninhibited by the physical past a person tended to have a lot of time to contemplate the present and the future. To this well honored pass-time Cole now turns. He sets himself up comfortably on the bed and lets his mind wander over things to come.
