((I'm new to the RP, Looking forward to interacting with all of you.))
Apollo activated the Lift. As it made it's way down, Artemis continued what they had been discussing, "I still think we should invest in project Zodiac. The results could be quite fruitful, having a good hold on it would be in our best."
"Artemis, if I didn't know any better I'd say you're worried about what they'll find."
"All I'm saying is, if we want to keep the Mortals in line we have to restrict what they know. Project Zodiac reveal more than we want them to know."
"Oh really? I happen to know that Project Zodiac is going to fail."
"Oh?"
"Yes, some of their lead scientists are going to be going on a prolonged vacation."
Apollo's smile was a little more then friendly at this point. Artemis smirked, "Ah, good for them. A R&R could do them some good."
They laughed as the doors opened. The Twins exited the lift and continued through the welcoming room and out the front door of Gemini HQ.

Mega Kibble "Gaia!" Kyfen said, but it was too late, as the last roots sank into the dirt. He doubted she would've stopped if he'd said it before, anyway. Maybe he'd struck a nerve with the lonely question, or maybe this was how she treated all immortals. After standing in silence for a while, Kyfen walked back to Cyrea, standing away from the two of them. As he went, he saw all sorts of creatures and sights- things that would stay with him forever, as a reminder to the best things in life. It may have been a short walk, but Kyfen began to wish it had been much longer. So he had to choose who would be his mentor: Yada, or Cyrea? Or maybe there were others of the twenty in this town, who'd be willing to meet him, a little orphan boy who'd never done anything very noteworthy until today. Yeah, right Thought Kyfen, pushing the idea to the back of his mind. Gaia had been right. There really was no reason to rush things. Finally he reached Cyrea, and smiled at her, a smile full of honesty, but with a glint of wisdom in his eye that hadn't been there before. "Heya!"

Lynn went through her meticulously rehearsed dance, singing the whole way. Lynn lost herself in the song, and she improvised the dance. It was a long song, but when Lynn lost herself, she lost herself. There were murmurs coming from the side of he stage where the directors stood, and it seemed they were debating whether or not it was okay for Lynn to improv. the dance. They apparently can to the decision it was okay when Lynn hit the high note in the song perfectly and did an elaborate dance move, which gracefully whipped herself from one side of the stage to the other. Everyone in the hurried crowd stopped to watch and they gawked at the complexity of it all. It was much more complex than what she was assigned to do, but she didn't care. She finished the song with a bow and smiled, dancing off stage toward the directors.
"What was that?" one asked.
"Oh, you didn't like it?" Lynn responded.
"No, no, no. Not that we didn't like it, but... but wow," another told Lynn
"Where did you learn that?"
"Oh, no where, I improvised." Lynn smiled at the group of four directors and walked completely off the wooden stage, the directors gawking after her.

Conall had looked up when he heard Lynn sing, and smirked. Still cleaning his shuko, he walked over to the stage and watched until the end of the performance. Conall then followed Lynn as she walked offstage, which worried many as he had very sharp weapons. Conall walked next Lynn and poked her head.
-"Show off."

"How was I showing off?" Lynn scowled, a face that didn't fit with the dress and perky colors of it, "I was just improving. I forgot the dance, okay?" She kept her scowl, but this time focused on Conall, "probably due to the fact that I was passed out a few minutes ago." Her scowl faded and she faced front, headed to the table where there was a few coolers full of drinks.

Kyfen grinned. Again, it wasn't even a choice. After all, he was only twelve- and after all the serious stuff that'd happened today, how could he resist the chance to go and play?
He ran about, introducing himself to all the animals, not caring that the didn't understand, and took fascination in everything about them- there movement, their fur, their faces. He explored the area, played in streams and climbed up trees. For prehaps the first time in a long time, the area was filled with laughter, as Kyfen enjoyed himself in the glorious garden.
About three hours later, Kyfen went back to Cyrea. He was much more ragged now- mud all over his body, twigs in his hair, but he didn't mind. It was the best kind of dirt- the dirt gained from a good day's exploring.
"Ok. I'm ready to go back now."
Part of him hoped that he'd be able to return one day, and maybe he would. But Kyfen feared inside that the next time he did come here he wouldn't be able to enjoy it like this. That's why he had to explore it now.

Cyrea smiled and leaned back against a tree, watching the boy play around with the animals. "Somehow, I should have expected that."
~*~
3 hours, 4 minutes and 23 seconds later(Cyrea had an internal clock to time it), Kyfen came back to Cyrea. Before she took his hand to take him back to the mortal world, the darkness that had slid inside her skin before jumped back out to form the dark cloak once again. She set a rock with a signal encrypted into it in the palm of his hand. Then, she gripped his hand and closed her eyes, muttering softly to something else. "Arish kanihm, plesaht kaht, Holenies."
This time, instead of the illusion of liquid glass breaking, it felt like the floor dropped from underneath them. Small curls of a different sight came from all over the place, filling the eyes with a new scenery. And, they were back.

Kyfen looked down.
Hey! My clothes are back! He thought. The dirt he'd accumalated during his long play had disappeared, and if it weren;t for the memories inside his head he could've sworn it'd never happened.
But it had.
Reagarding the scenery around him, Kyfen recognised the other two people standing there. They seemed to be in the middle of a discussion, but that didn't stop Kyfen butting in.
"Hey-ya!"
He smiled at Cyrea again. He'd completely changed his view on her- at first fearing her, scared she had come to kill him for real, to someone kind, and caring. He hoped she would be his friend; for that matter, he always hoped everyone would be his friend, once he got to know them. It was one of those childish aspects about him that not even dying could remove.

"Stay back! N-"
The cry ended mid sentence followed by the sounds of clothes falling in a heap. Dr. Strom would be making it home for work.
"Who's left?"
"All that's left is lead scientist Dr. Grenton. He must still be at lab. I'd say meeting him at the back of the building would be work out best."
Artemis nodded and they both vanished.

Matt turned to see Cyrea and Kyfen where back. He smiled and waved at Kyfen then nodded towards Cyrea. He walke over to Kyfen and smiled. "So did you enjo your meeting with gaia?"

"Hey Matt. I'm going to have you take care of him for a while. There's a war going on over in Iraq, you know...that tightens up my business a lot. And the gangfights in Japan are increasing. Some mortals just don't care about their lives, do they? Sheesh..." Cyrea bent her head up and put her palm to her forehead. Then she looked back at Matt. "Well, if you see Lynn, tell her I was never here. All her imagination. See you, Matt, Kyfen." Cyrea sank back into the shadows and was gone, back to the underworld and the candle room.

((Not wicken, but you are on the right track about their bases))
Dr. Grenton was in fact still in his office. He was finishing up a report when he noticed he wasn't alone. Apollo sat in the chair across the desk while Artemis stood behind him.
"Good evening Dr. Grenton. Working late are we?"
"How did you get in here?" Grenton demanded.
"We let ourselves in. We wanted to asked you a few questions."
"I have nothing to say to murderers, now get out!" His voice showed outrage, but Dr. Grenton was visibly trembling.
He wasn't a large man. Mid 40's, sturdy build that at one point must have been more active than it was now.
"I fail to see how you're in any position to argue the matter. Heard you been having some problems with your hands."
"What of it?" he asked not breaking eye contact with Apollo.
Apollo nodded towards the desk. The man looked down to see that cuffs of his lab coat were empty. He stiffened, biting his tongue not trust what would happen if he stied to speak.
"I personally have never murdered anyone. Have you Artemis?"
Artemis shook his head, eyes staying on the Doctor, "Can't say I have."
"See? Now, does anyone know more about project Zodiac than you?"
"N-n-no. I'm head of the project. I'm the only one that has access to the project in its entirety."
Apollo's smile curled a bit more, "That's perfect, then you're the only one we need to worry about." he snapped his fingers and Grenton's clothes lost their occupant causing them to fall in a heap on the chair.
"Do you believe him?"
"No but with him gone others may think this project is now to dangerous to continue."
The twin's winked out of the office.

"Don't take it so harshly," Matt said as he walked over and put a hand on Yata's shoulder. "She mentioned only to me because you are probably going to tend to this war...You art of course Yata...The blood seeking warrior. "Matt laughed a bit but it didn't last long, he turned towards Keyfen and smiled. "So you really are going to be my little brother no aren't you..." He said as he walked and put a hand on Keyfens shoulder.. " guess I'll be nice and give you my room and I'll stay on the couch..But if I ever find one of my pictures out of place or anythign missing .. Your dead little one...But since you can't die... I will punish you severly... Just dont' go threw thoes albums okay?" His voice sounded a bit more clam and sincer.
((Hm, reading to much and to often helps..))
