Virgil Hawkins Hovers over the crater, frowning at its emptiness.
"It's gotta be somewhere, and if I'm gonna make the cover of SCIENCE! magazine, I'd better find it. Local news said there were some other streaks of light earlier this week, so..."
Flies down to the edge of the crater and hops off the lunch tray, wandering into the forest.
"Gotta start somewhere." **bushes in the distance before Virgil shakes wildly and there's the sound of a scream**

stressed "Uhg." * Annoyed Dani thinks Wally isn't interested in public displays of affection... or any affection past hugging... * *sighs remembering where she id and why she's here.*
"Wally." *holds his hand to calm him* "We're here to remember A fallen loved one."

"Into the woods, to Grandmother's house...."
Virg disappears into the woods.

**Achilles walks up and takes Cassandra by the arm and escorts her to the lead male warrior**
"Jason, my sister, Cassandra."
**He turns her around to his friends and waves an arm in presentation...before the gathered kids is a thriving city made of crystal...a crystal statue of Athena at the forefront of the vast courtyard...and flowing rivers of gold**
"My friends, welcome to Thalarion!"

"Come. The time for the memorial is nigh."
**looks them each over**
"And you will certainly want a change of clothes first."
**escorts the group of kids to a palacial room in his own chambers**
"Here you will find suitable clothes so you will blend in. Um...Cassie and Danielle can change behind the screen so prying eyes will remain blind."

"Right. Blend in."
::And so did step forth the only red-headed, freckled Greek Warrior on the entire island as Wally fidgeted and figured out how to walk while wearing a toga.::

::Leans over to Dani::
"Okay, so I've been wondering the heck out of this...If this kid was from the past and he died here in the future, but he was supposed to die in the past, doesn't that have like dire ramifications for the timeline?
Also...you look really hot in that toga."

**they arrive in the fielded grotto of the island, before a flowing waterfall that fed into the oceans surrounding the island...perhaps surprisingly to some of the kids, aside from Cassandra, also present were many female warriors of Themyscira, including Hippolyta herself**
**Achilles brought the kids to the front of the gathering and in front of them, laid a multi-layered pyre built of dry wood and straw, and atop it a wooden carving**
**Achilles looks back to his friends**
"Symbolic, of course, as Patroclus is returned to his own time."
**All quiet down and a marble carving of Patroclus, a perfect likeness, is staioned before the pyre**
**Achilles looks to his friends**
"The time for remembrance is upon us. You were his friends while he was at the school, as was I. Would any of you care to say anything?"

*Dani was not as uncomfortable as the others since she's used to playing dress up.*
*giggles up to Wally as the fallow Achilles.*
You look cute.
