[[Entering from Hunter Team 3's thread. ]]
Cass, like Jude, went spilling into the Tent out of nowhere, crashing into the other hunter roughly.
"EEP!" she squeaked as she went down post-crashing, hitting the ground before rolling to pop back up again, hands on her hips. "I need to work on my landings!" she said, thought not really loudly before reaching to scratch the back of her head with a lop-sided expression.
Whoops.

Bix was hit in the head with a shoe.
"GODDAMMIT."
Apparently there was a shoe thrower in every group.
"Was Before talking to these prisoners?!" Bix picked up the shoe and examined it. Looked like a girl's shoe.. or .. some kinda period costumed man shoe. And it was tiny!
"Which one of you did this?" He scowled.

Suddenly Jude had a Cass or rather was crashed into by a Cass. He let out a small grunt and stumbled a bit as he felt her momentarily against him and then not before she got up.
"Yes, work on that landing." He said simply though she probably could have sworn he just chuckled a bit. That might have been some sort of delusion.

Jove simply bared his teeth... And sat on his heels so the strangers couldn't see his feet. It had definitely gotten that one's attention away from Calder! And the pup even had one boot left, just in case!

Ren had remained silent while everything had been going on - the disappearance of the hooded figure and the arrival of several more students, though these were ones he knew - Christof, Roch, and a large, blue skinned Adonis that was unfamiliar - followed first by a weak, despondent looking Barth and then finally Calder.
And then they came - the ones with the weapons - and the hooded figure from earlier.
The ones who'd killed him.
Ren's eyes slid to Jove, in the cage beside him, feeling desperation rise in his throat, the panic beginning to well - though, the throwing of his shoe at least made Ren give him a weak smile and a thumbs up.
LW. Gabrian. Alessa. Jove. Coralie.
Even that damned Tybalt.
What was going to happen to them now? Ren's eyes flickered towards Calder - and then flinched horribly at the sound of something sizzling, and the gut-wrenching cry that escaped from the boil's throat.
Somebody help us.

Cass smiled at Jude, laughing a bit herself - maybe it was her own laughter she'd heard. "Sorry about that." she chimed back at him playfully, dusting one of her shoulders off nonchalantly, before looking to the cages that they had assembled.
It looked like they hadn't lost anybody since the group of five had left.
Good. She imagined if that had happened, Caelius would have killed them all for it.

"Hey guys.." Bix's scowl had faded to a frown and he tossed the shoe into an abandoned corner. He'd keep an eye out for the owner.. or even for the other shoe.
"How'd it go?" He wondered if they caught anyone or got into any epic fights.

Tybalt caught the foxfire's look and tried to give him a reassuring look. Surely they'd find a way out of this... They had to! But it had to be soon, otherwise Calder's life was in danger.
These creatures though... They were a disgusting sight. How could they smile like that at their captives like that? How could they treat someone--anyone one like they had? What kind of miserable beast were they!? If it wasn't for this damn cage... he'd tear those smiles right off their Jack damned faces!
But really though, just how many were there? There were what...? Four present now? Not counting the two from before? Where were they all coming from?

 [ entering from trap thread - using pixel to distinguish between Gale + Ren ]
"You seem to have a thing for people throwing shoes at you."
Golden eyes sliding towards Bix, Gale shouldered the sniper rifle in his hands over one shoulder, propping his other hand on his hip. He'd managed to keep ahold of the weapon during that damned "transportation" back to the tent (they really needed to work on fixing that whole method of going back and forth - falling was beginning to be quite trying), and now he stood, surveying the cages in front of him.
There were more - several more, at least ten, probably more. Gale's gaze swept boredly from one to the next, absently taking in their appearances.
His scrutinizing landed on one of them - a small, pale-faced young thing with freckles and teal hair that looked nothing like a monster, except for the tail and ears protruding from his body. Beside him was something winged that had a lion's tail, and a girl that might have been a normal human - dark skinned, with a witch's hat perched on her head.
And the horse creature and Barth, of course. Gale tilted his head, eying them both with a vague expression before turning back to Bix.
"So we're back here, are we?"

Cass looked to Bix and shrugged. "We got nothing. Well, besides lost in a sea of mirrors." She held up her hand to show the older boy the cut on her palm. "That house likes to pull weird s**t on us, doesn't it?" she seemed slightly amused by it. Amused until she looked to the cages further, peering in.
Ghosts. They had more ghosts. It may have been the only time Cassandra Norris would be seen with such a grin on her face when ghosts were involved. A wicked grin perhaps, even. If Tybalt wanted to come at her, she would have recriprocated willingly, her thumb looped around the chain she wore on her waist.
Do not taunt them, Cassandra. Nicodemus warned in her head as Gamma Twelve got this sort of utterly delighted look on her face. Screw being the hero of the human race. This was why she'd became a hunter - this redeemed her years of untolerable living because of their miserable existences.
Yes.
It was all worth it to know she was instilling it back into them. Cass looked over her shoulder at the newest arrival, waving her hand over her shoulder to him. "'ey! Welcome back!" she greeted brightly.

"It isn't a thing," Jude said to Cass and soon his head turned toward Bix for a brief moment. The young man shrugged a shoulder.
"Unless you count spending forever in a mirror maze exciting other than that nothing on our end," He replied as he gazed around and gestured around him, "This is the most exciting thus far."

There was nothing they could do, nothing any of them could do. It didn't take a genius to know what they were probably going to do to Calder and it killed Julian inside. He didn't know the boil, not very well, but he'd seen him around, knew he wasn't all that bad. Barth was right, transformation, how could this be real? How was this right? How DARE they.
He looked to the Tybalt, to Jove, to all of the other students, to the ghouls he was supposed to protect. Sin was his friend. He didn't know any of these students very well. They could all be his friends, if only he'd try harder. He... How could he not have a chance for it? Calder, the kelpie wasn't much older than he was, if at all. Was life so cruel that they would all die, to become some sick plaything?
"How can you do this?!" he shouted at them, his voice rising to a screech that started to sound more and more like an owl. In between his words, an angry, high-pitched hiss started to slip out. His wide eyes rolled over all of the creatures.
"Words, there aren't words for this, this... " He crouched as near to the back of his cage as possible, his eyes wide and wings spreading slightly. He didn't know what else to do but fluff up, the only defense mechanism he had.
"I don't know what to call you! Did you kill your mothers when they looked at you and saw the ugly, vile creatures they'd spawned?" His powers, he couldn't use his natural abilities to see it, but he knew, deep in his heart, that for what they were doing they would all die. Death omens would follow them, he had such undying faith in retribution. Harbingers, his brothers, they would all know of this, they just had to.
Jack, how he missed his family.
No more words, they didn't deserve them. Just a soft, sharp hiss.

Bix just gave Gale a look when he mentioned the shoe thing again. A 'you b*****d' kind of look.
Bix raised his brows at the mirror thing. "We brought a few of these guys back. But our room was alive and so was that couch." They'd notice a giant orange couch discarded to the side.
"Then the room ate us and spit us out here." Was it on their side? What was with the house??
Then Dr. H asked if they were ready and Bix nodded, walking to Calder's cage. "Should I take him out now?" He wasn't sure if the super zapping was over or not.

Curled up, Calder could hear past the gabbing humans to the voice of the person he had been looking out for. "..Barth..." He lacked the vigor and minor power he had before to stand up and call out to him. Whatever he had been dying to say, whatever he needed say, or even wanted to say, were hard to force out as he laid against the cold floor of his cage.
