Maria sat atop the church near the park; she had been here since it all began. She wasnt interested in any part of the lie, just the truth. So far truth was Alex, lost Seth, She lost Jonas, and Micah was just lost... The girl had given the boy the mirror. She had been wanting to approach Omi and ask for it but she figured shed wait until she could trust them. She couldn't and she was becoming largely involved in just finding a way to give seth's final gift.
Maria jumped into the sky, legs pumped like pistons; as she fell her wings came to fruit and the wind tore through her. She hit Alex in the chest hard, and then the cement and metal ground below them tore open and swallowed them all. She quickly went to work healing the girl she hit, then she grabbed her in her arms and went to work crushing the world around them in. No one could come in, as long as they feared for Alex's safety.
"Your lucky we have something in common. Nexus has Jonas and Seth; i want Jonas back and sadly i cant do it without you." She reached into her backpack and pulled out a MicroMitte, it was playing a small message; but seth had broken it so that no one could hear it. She just heard the faintest sound. "Its all a message, everyone left something. Micah left a mirror and part of the message. Seth left this and Jonas left something else but i dont know what... I cant find it." She felt a tear well up and didnt know what to do. All she knew was that Omi had the mirror and now Alex had the Mitter. "Please if you find something from Jonas, im sure ill be the only one that can do anything. I need the message and the mirror. Or i just need someone to read the message infront of it." SHe backed offf and fluffed her wings tentatively.

"She doesn't want to be released yet Caleb." Alex translated for the girl.
"Brace yourself Alex." Caleb said before looking to Omi as she slipped him the mirror. He nodded and smiled playfully. He took a deep breath, closing his eyes and ducking just as Maria crashed into Alex.
Alex didn't have time to do much of anything, there was a rush of wind, a heavy pressure, pain, numbness, and then someone talking. Alex shook her head. "What the hell? Asking works too, no need for crash landings and secrets." she explained, then looked to the Mitter.
"Three parts to teh message? Wonder who's brilliant idea that was?" Alex thought aloud. "Chances are, Jonas left it somewhere where you would find it. Where did you two spend the most time together?"

"How cute...relics." He'd let out a bit of a sigh as the anomaly occurred before looking to the H.E.C. building. He'd snicker a bit and look to the forest beside it and close his eyes. All four sets of wings would fold over him as if to protect him while a faint light would begin to glow beneath them. His wings would burst open and come to rest bent behind him while the light would quickly dash to a specific area marked in his head over the forest, and slowly but surely, something of a translucent castle would begin to form. Water would flow from it's celestial base right in to the lake of the forest; he felt it only added to the beauty of his celestial Sanctuary as opposed to Kain's grim Black Rose.
Speaking of Kain: He was aware of the situations, though he couldn't bring himself to care. To him it was merely a war between demons and in the end he could eliminate both sides upon exhaustion. His attention would turn to Cat as the castle neared completion, a warm smile on his lips yet again. "Feel free to stay in Nexus' domain or relocate in to my own. This goes for you, your brother and even Alex, though I'll need to extend that invitation later apparently..."

Cat tilted her head as Caleb gave Alex a warning, then simply blinked as she was thrown into something. "Alex?!" She looked at where her friend had been standing.
"She's fine." Caleb called over calmly, smiling still.
"Ya know it's really unsettling when your so calm." she replied. It wasn't so much unsettling as it was the fact she didn't like not knowing what the hell was going on. Her attention was drawn away as Setsumei built his castle, it really was something to be seen. She looked toward him as he mentioned picking where to stay. "I don't much like the idea of staying with Nexus, not since it was changed back into teh old HEC. Not to mention I don't know Nexus all that well now that he's someone new." It went without saying she didn't trust him around Caleb either.

"Nexus is merely a conglomerate of other beings. He's truly the definition of pathetic, yet I don't feel sorry for him nor his components in the least. He chooses to suffer and he chooses to try and bully his way about...but types like those always fail. That's why H.E.C. is empty...that's why Kain's been subdued. The corrupt and disillusioned cannot win. Even if he were to complete himself, I'd tear the four pieces apart and lock each of them on a different corner of the planet. For now, I'm allowing him to do as he pleases as we ALL deserve a chance." He'd sigh a bit, praying that Nexus would come to his senses. He knew the odds were beyond terrible, but he felt he deserved a chance at least.
"Sanctuary should be more then hospitable to you. I'll keep the kitchen well stocked and make sure your rooms are as you want them. Swim as you please in the rivers...my home is your home, should you choose to make it as such." He'd offer her a warm smile, seeming to be completely unfazed by the current events suddenly.

Cat smirked and couldn't help a small laugh. "Seems like you've taken well to teh whole emotions thing, save for the emotion of 'surprise'." she joked, hinting toward the fact that Alex was just taken down by some random lady, and Caleb was busy conversing with a mute trapped in a cursed rose garden.
"Then again, I guess it helps being able to see whats coming." she reasoned.

"In the end, it really doesn't matter. When something is not in my control, I tend to care far less about it...the more optimistic side to this is the fact very little is actually out of my control. This whole ordeal concerning Nexus and this garden is very strange indeed, though I must say I've seen much stranger and seen far worse. I believe we've little to worry about." He'd look to Cat with a warm smile and a bit of a chuckle, then look to the sky as clouds would slowly begin to form above them.
"I've always liked the rain...the water brings life and washes away the filth, and at the end of it all the light sines brighter then ever. I've always wondered what made it so depressing...but, I've never experienced rain on this planet, short of Kain's mock-rain." He'd quickly throw up barriers above each of the individuals left in the area, then look back to Cat. "On such a hostile planet, I'd expect nothing less then acid rain."

"Thats the problem, we spent all our time in the HEC. If anything was left for me it wouldnt be there, becauseof Setsumei." She looked apologetic for hurting the woman, but stern. "Like i said Jonas, trusted Seth for some reason. So i assume he thought of you. Ask caleb, maybe Seth said something to him or knows where it is. I have to go, things may be bad but i need to get into the forest. I have a feeling something else is in there, the battle wasn't the only reason this place surface. If there is a way to get Jonas back the Rose gods will know." Maria grabbed Alex as shot upward through the chamber she created dropping her back with the others. "Setsumei a word from Jonas, "nothing is ever as it seems...things that are there one minute are easily gone the next and what was lost to the wind could easily fly back." She took off assuming if anyone would get that crap maybe he woould.

Alex nodded and tried to think of what it would be that was left for this woman. She braced herself as they were taken back to teh surface, then began to replay all teh past conversations with Seth, just in case she overlooked something.
Cat looked up at the sky. "It's not that bad, this planet is the only thing I've only ever called home, and the rain hasn't hurt me yet." she smiled. "As far as hostility goes, thats a human trait, not a planetary one." she looked to him then to the area once Alex was back. She gave her a questioning look, only to have Alex wave it off as if it were something normal.

"No. Nothing's really as it seems." He'd then look to Cat and give a warm eyes-closed smile. "All we can do as take what we have and use what we know to make the best of our lives, dealing with each new thing as it may come." Now his eyes would open and he'd look back to the castle. "Alex...make your choice, here and now. All of you: Stay with me or remain here to die." He'd tap on the ground, pointing out the vibrations from Kain's attacks upon the planet. "Sanctuary will be safe."

"I don't much like the sound of dieing." Alex replied, as if that was answer enough, she was more side tracked as to what Maria was looking for. She tucked the mitter into her pocket, till trying to think back.
"Maria was looking for a way to read some sort of message from Micah, Seth and Riot." Caleb explained. "There's three parts and we only have two."
Cat looked at Caleb and nodded, glad he explained what was going on. She turned back to Setsumei tucking her own hands in her pockets. "So what to do now. Omi doesn't want to be released, the planets about to explode, and theres a missing piece to a puzzle that seems to be important somehow." Cat smirked. "So much to do so little time."

"Maria...he claims to be as I am. She's no more then an apparition that cannot rest without the help of a corrupt man. I pity her so much, yet I can't bring myself to force her from this world. In the end, she may be able...to..." He'd think for a moment, then chuckle. He'd dismiss his own thought, then look to the others. "Just think. It's all so cryptic that it will be so obvious in the end."
He'd look to Sanctuary and with a wave of his hand he'd create a staircase to the massive castle, though a single foot upon the first step would bring them to the last step. He loved a good show, thus he felt simply teleportation was far too lacking in drama.

"Actually i do want to go." She thought it over, if she left the park now sure the would send Nexus, but it looked like he would be to busy finding petals. She looked at Alex strangely, "I want to go with alex though." SHe didnt have room to make demands but if she was going to talk to anyone it should be her. Maybe her time with Seth would have given her the peace needed to face this unsettling time. "If i go though i cant follow him..." She pointed to Caleb. She was sure that Seth's part wouldnt hurt alex, nor woulf he allow any other no matter how controlling. She could in the end always give up and go back to the park; but Caleb and Cat's lives we too important. Secrets, secrets, secret; so many and all of them were just aparent truth's.

Alex nodded and moved closer to the garden to help Omi up and out. "I agree." she smiled and crossed her fingers. "Here's to hoping your right though." She was following teh same train of thought at the girl. Hopefully Nexus's different parts weren't entirely cut out.
Caleb smiled and nodded happily. "Let's go, let's go." he repeated standing up and jogging over to hand the mirror to Cat, then jogged back over to Alex and Omi.
Cat accepted the mirror, holding it up to look it over. "It looks like a regular ol' mirror."
"Breathe Deep" Caleb called over.
Cat raised a brow. "Whats that suppose to mean?"
