Eulalia Danae ArynChris Eulalia Danae "He's not come back yet, Ma'am." The man said in a quiet voice. Erica swore. "Damnit Xeen, of all the times to be missing." She pushed out of her chair and started moving down the hallway, the young man following after her. "I need everything we have on the ACO, everything." She said to the man behind her. The man tensed. "That may not be easy, Ma'am. The ACO... Your husband deleted everything he could get his hands on when he came to stay here." He glanced at her nervously. "He threatened our families if we told you without being asked first."Erica paused and tensed in turn. "What does my husband have to do with the ACO?" The man shook his head. "I really have no idea, Ma'am. He didn't say, and we were all too afraid to ask questions after the first... demonstration."

Erica's eyes darkened, though she hid her fury nicely. "What was the demonstration?" She asked, slowly enunciating the words with careful control. "Trust me, boy, it is in your best interest to answer truthfully."

"Trust me, boy, it is in your best interest to answer truthfully." He raised his hands defensively. "Wouldn't dream of lying. He blew up a generator and Nick Rogers hasn't been seen since. He did that--" the man gestured "--popping thing."

"That popping thing, hmm?" Erica repeated, her eyes narrowing a bit further. "Thank you. You'll be dismissed for the moment. I'd suggest not being here when my husband gets back, his temper tends to flare like Elquivar's Sun."

((Ooooo, purple. And poetic!))
"Yes, Ma'am," he replied with relief, scuttling down a different corridor. "Not a problem, dodging all that trouble..."

((XD more like lyrics, but it's all good.))
Erica waved him off and set on her own path towards her personal quarters. Her pace was clipped, a clear sign that she was not in a good mood.

Eulalia Danae The Toolness He pops his head out "What was what? Did I do something wrong? I don't think I did unless being excited is wrong I wouldn't think it would be though..." The woman blinked. "No, no, nothing wrong...how did you do that thingy?" She waved her hand around trying to describe his walking through the simulator wall. Ghost stares at her puzzled for a moment. Then looks at himself hanging half way outside the simulator wall "Oh that... I dunno how I do it I just always could no wall can hold me back unless its a a wall made of energy can't seem to get through those... maybe one day. So can we get started? almost forgot I'm Ghost. Whats your name?"

Xeen stepped out of nowhere into Erica's room, with Laurel and Ora in tow. "Erica? Erica!"

Erica was waiting for him, sitting in chair, her legs crossed. She had a gun resting in her lap, which she picked up and aimed at Xeen. "You have a lot of explaining to do, Love."
Ora, having not known her mother was alive at all, stopped dead in her tracks.

Eulalia Danae Erica was waiting for him, sitting in chair, her legs crossed. She had a gun resting in her lap, which she picked up and aimed at Xeen. "You have a lot of explaining to do, Love." Ora, having not known her mother was alive at all, stopped dead in her tracks. The gun ceased to be as soon as it was leveled at him, his protective aura flaring into existance around him. "Perhaps you would like to be a little less hostile when telling me something like that," He raised a single hand, a radiant blue glow surrounding it, "But, talk we shall. Start."

"I was born hostile, love, it's expected." Erica turned to the arm of her chair and typed in a few short commands. "You're lucky I didn't kill you without chance of explanation."
Erica's arms crossed. "You start first. Is there anything you'd like to tell me Xeen, about why you suddenly found me perhaps, or the extreme circumstances we are in?"

"I found you because I spent nearly five hundred years looking for you and our daughter, Erica. I told you as much when I first found you. And why the Kore has suddenly placed this ultimatum on us, I have no idea. I am not the Kore."

"And what about the ACO, Xeen?" Erica asked, her eyes narrowing. "Are you working for them?"

Xeen paused, and nodded slowly. "Yes. My payment is the ACO making sure you and Ora are safely looked after, no matter what. I found them shortly after the incident with the Gilgamesh, so I had help to deal with the Kore."
