Omega: Catalina - Fade to Black - This KillJoy Stuff Works!

Kerrigan was quickly finding that she liked making Jack grin. She liked the thought that came with saying things that kept his interest in her, that kept his attention solely on her. What she was finding out more than anything else was that urges, even though she technically wasn't a teenager anymore, were hard things to ignore. It would be a lie to say that she had never felt urges towards someone before -- shoot, she was human -- but they had never been this strong, never this acute. Self restraint was becoming harder and harder by the minute, especially when he kept her body so closely nestled into his. His touch, his smell -- it was all intoxicating to her, and the mere thought of depriving herself of that fix was just more than she could bear. His kisses made her head spin, though she almost felt like it was spinning no matter what was going on around her at the moment, but who had time to think such thoughts when she was making out with a hot guy on the beach. Wasn't that pretty much every girl's dream at one point or another? Even as his grip released her, only by a little bit, she felt the need to cling to him, to feel him next to her. The Kerrigan not tripping on Killjoy might be disgusted with herself right now, if it weren't for the sculpted, shirtless slightly damp Jack that now had his arm about her waist, walking down the beach together.

It would have taken weeks for regular, non-drug-induced Kerri to do this.

"I think dessert can be arranged," she said with a soft wink as the two continued down the beach towards the condo. Her arm slid around his waist as well, the coolness of his body soothing as he felt like her blood was pumping wildly throughout her whole body, making her warm. There were too many thoughts flashing through her head to really explain what she was expecting for the afternoon, ideas where this whole day could go, that it really felt like her feet were moving of their own accord with him, head in the clouds.

All too soon, the pair were back at the condo, where it seemed others were regrouping from some sort of disaster, confrontation. She vaguely remembered something like that herself, but now all her thoughts were on getting upstairs, eliminating the threat that someone or something else would catch his eye before she could keep him to herself. Sure, it was probably an irrational fear, an obsessive thought that the normal her might be embarrassed to admit, but her thought process was rapid, not necessarily taking everything into account.

Her steps followed him back to her room, the redhead momentarily looking around for Cissa a habit that even a drugged Kerri couldn't seem to break. However, unlike her normal self, it didn't seem to bother her too much that she couldn't immediately locate the blonde. It was Jack ascending the stairs that brought her thoughts back completely to him, the redhead slipping into her room after him, rather glad to be back inside after Hiking, cliff jumping, running, swimming, giving him mouth to mouth and then having to walk all the way back to the condo from the far side of the beach. Wow, that was one heck of a morning.

Moving over to the mirror, her hair was gritty with sand and salt water, sand caked to her legs in some places, and even smeared across her back. If the redhead ever looked more like an amazon, she couldn't really remember. However, her attention was really on Jack's reflection, watching as he scarfed down two more of the meals he had brought with him. She grinned, placing her hands on her exposed hips as she turned to look at him. Her eyebrows raised as he said he needed a shower, the redhead tilting her head ever so slightly to the side as he turned and headed into her bathroom, the sound of the water turning on bringing a soft shade of pink to her cheeks. Biting down on her lower lip as his voice came from the bathroom, explaining that he didn't want to have to go all the way back down to his room, which made sense, the redhead released a loud "uh-huh" in response, at least to show that she was listening.

There is a naked Jack in her shower. Jesus Christ, there is a naked Jack in her shower.

Kerrigan, without necessarily thinking, slipped her shorts off as she made her way into the bathroom, the redhead grinning slightly as she tossed them to the side, clearing her throat to let him know that she was in the room. Her bikini-clad form moved over to the shower, peeking around the curtain with a grin. Her eyes never left his face as her head tilted to the side innocently.

"Room for one more?"




Red hair sprawled across the pillows as Kerrigan and Jack laid in bed. Her covered were rumpled, wrapped around her expose leg, damp hair from the shower drying in their natural curls as she could only grin at him. Absentmindedly, she twirled the end of a tendril of hair around her fingers, head resting against his shoulder with a satisfied sigh.

"Well, guess that takes care of the bed part of that brilliant plan we hatched on the beach," she said with a laugh, rolling over to plant a soft kiss on his lips. Everything seemed…surreal. The room brighter, the wind coming through the open window sweeter, the thought of food more enticing than she could remember. Her body nestled against his under the covers, nose brushing against his cheek before planting a kiss and pulling back.

"I'll take care of the lunch part. Be right back," she spoke softly, her lips brushing against his ear before rolling away from him, out of bed. Her steps were light across the floor as she crossed to the dresser, throwing on a slightly oversized white shirt and a pair of jeans. Messing her fingers through her curls to put them in some form of order, and doing a relatively poor job, she leaned back against the dresser, her gaze falling softly on the giant in her bed.

"Well, any requests?"

Alpha: Heading to the kitchen.

Molly had stood in the silent parlor for a minute or two before venturing deeper into the condo. Since it appeared that the spider infestation had all been a figment of her imagination she was most likely starting to lose her mind. For some reason that didn’t bother her as much as it should have nor did the here and suddenly gone spiders raise any red flags. Something should have bothered her but it didn’t. So on that note she passed through the condo pausing to look at the cat lazing in her arms. ”I’ll bet you’re hungry...now just what am I going to feed you?” She was almost sure they hadn’t stocked cat food in this place so she might have to settle for tuna.

Entering the kitchen she was not surprised to see that it was a hotbed of activity. In fact one of the Omega’s (Shandra had nearly run her down on her way out of the kitchen. The girl had gone by Molly before she could inquire if she was alright. So she entered the kitchen with a little more caution wanting to avoid another near collision if she could help it. She was a little surprised to see that Maddy was all wet, Narcissa looked like her usual imperial majesty and Blair looked like she had been staring down a chimney. There were others in the kitchen but those people really stood out from the rest. ”I believe that we’ve walked in late to this one...” She said frowning at the odd situation. She made no other comment about what she had seen or heard.

Instead she focused on the task at hand which was feeding her cat and then feeding herself. Feeling unusually generous Molly set the car, whom would need a name, onto the counter and looked at the people in the kitchen. ”Uuummm...yea...I’m going to make lunch...nothing special...just tuna fish sandwiches. Anyone want one?” She asked fishing out a small metal mixing bowl and about four cans of tuna.

Jack was thinking to himself as he scrubbed sand off him along with salt, of the ocean and his own sweat. He was relaxing and feeling himself loosen up just a a tad. Helpful considering his five clone deaths and the backlash it gave him. Although he was abit tall even for his shower, he managed to duck his head under the spray and cleanse his hair of what remained from their adventure on the hike. It was nothing like he thought the day would go. Honestly aside from the death experiences he had little to complain about. The Redhead waiting for him was gorgeous, and he could honestly admit he was pulled towards her the first time they met. He heard a sound, the clearing of throat that made him stiffen for a second then wiped water from his eyes as he realized it was her. Probably getting something she needed.

That probably was stricken from his mind when she peaked around the curtain and asked if there was room for one more. He had a grin on his face and only a slight of blush, but he shameless enough to not feel a need to cover himself from her. He made a crack about "only if you follow the dress code" and held out his hand to help her in. What started off genuinely washing each other, became more touchy feely. Soon passion got the better and everything blurred together for Jack. Still they managed to get clean and leave drying themselves off for abit. It was then He was lead by the hand to the bed and the world would be lost for the both of them.

----------------

Laying on his back with Kerrigan next to him, his arm about her waist, Jack had his eyes closed but not necessarily sleeping or even that tired. He was awake sure, but his body was like Jello, considering everything done to it just in the single morning. He chuckled at her comment adding, " Yeah. Best plan all day." He kissed her back before she rolled away out of his arm. Despite how drained he was, with a groan, he hauled his muscle torso to sit and rubbed his eyes clear before looking at her, staring really. He knew he liked ehr and that she was pretty, but now in particular she seemed... glowy. He looked down as she asked if he had any request. A small smirk formed on his face, as he looked back up. " I could eat a brick for all I care, as long as you come back beautiful.".

He swung his legs over the side and stood up going to his duffle back and opening a side pocket. There were cloths there and he slipped into some boxers at least. She seemed about to rush off but he caught her hand and pulled her back into him for another kiss. Then let her got to go retrieve lunch. Smiling and waving like a goof as she left. He looked around now alone for the moment, and he had to ask himself what now. He could go back to his room for a little bit but he didn't want to leave her clueless or worry her at worst. He sat back down on the bed to try and motivate his body into moving and regaining some form of strength. Not without a nap. He laid back and decided on just that. She shouldn't be too long, or so he hoped. plenty of time to recuperate and revitalize.

Still He couldn't help but think this happened alittle fast. Not that he wasn't enjoying himself or her company. It just seemed slightly off or odd. Like he was going to wake up any moment and leave this beautiful reality behind. The thought scared him. He stopped perusing it with a sigh as he waited laying there eyes closed. The day wasn't over yet. He'd need a little help to keep up.

Omega - And... change scenery!


Christian’s eyes grew wide at the sight of magma being produced from Dimitri’s fingertip. There was no way in all the rings of Hell that he’d be able to absorb that. He’d be lucky if he would be able to walk away with less than half his flesh melted away. And a half-dead skeleton walking on this island was probably the last sight anyone needed to see, not after the spider debacle.

“You wanna field this one,” Christian said to Raine, pertaining to what Dimitri said, “Or should I?” He didn’t wait for her to answer as he continued. While he was clearing his throat, he saw Billy rush by with Sophia in his arms. Seemed it was getting time to get going. “Nevermind,” he said to Raine before he headed indoors.

“I’ll see ya inside.” If he had a hat, he’d have tipped it to Raine and even Dimitri as he headed indoors. He was still annoyed by having someone fight his battle for him, the battle he was taking up for someone else.

Christian meandered inside, walking past the kitchen, completely oblivious to what exactly had gone on in there. He saw a gaggle of people just situated there, but he was going to ignore it all… for now. Right now, he was letting his anger subside as he headed towards his room. First order of business; get a shirt. He already had two ruined in the past twelve hours or so and was rather getting sad about that and there seemed to be a chilled breeze wafting through the halls.

No time was wasted as he threw on a random Mariners jersey and headed upstairs. Raine wanted him to at least watch over Sophia while she was out of it. His steps were quicker than normal as he headed back towards the flight of steps towards the room both Sophia and Raine shared.

The moment he got there, he saw Billy resting Sophie on her bed and felt a bit of relief the girl was at least going to be able to rest. But she was a mess, the blood had dried a bit on the side of her face. Not only that, the room was a disaster. Waffles, syrup, chocolate sauce.. everything they had brought up for their breakfast feast had been either trampled or strewn about the room in the spider-induced fracas. He’d clean that up eventually…

The room was eerily silent for the most part, quiet enough that Christian heard Billy’s stomach rumbling. He looked at the speedster and just chuckled a bit. Without hesitating, he found a bowl that was sitting on its edge, half of the berries it held on the floor. He grabbed it up, found an empty plate, and dumped the remaining strawberries on said plate.

“Here, man,” Christian said to Billy, as he walked by the chair where the guy sat. He handed his fellow Omega the plate laden with berries before heading into the small washroom. He had heard what Billy had said when he was coming into the room and began thinking briefly as he rinsed the bowl out, wiping out the remaining berry juice, and refilling it with some cold water. After a few moments, Christian walked back out of the washroom with the bowl of water and a small towel. Carefully, he took a seat on the bed next to where Sophia was resting and dampened the towel.

While he sat there, carefully cleaning the blood from Sophia’s face, he thought on what Billy had said. He seemed like a good enough kid, but… Christian could understand where he was coming from. He was the newest Omega.. at least until Billy and Aren showed up. Even then, he kept to himself for the most part, save the few good friends he had made.

Christian was paying attention to cleaning up Sophia but spoke quietly, so not to disturb her rest. “Thanks for your help,” Christian said to Billy, Just knowing that Billy, being the new guy and helping out the way he did, no matter how minutely it was, was commendable. If anything, it earned the guy a little bit of respect in Christian’s book.

“So… where you from?,” Christian asked Billy, finally looking at the fellow Omega. Maybe talking to the speedster would help put him at ease… an ease that wouldn’t be there whenever it was he met the Omega’s leader.

Alpha: Sofie & Raine's Room - Making Tasteless Jokes

Sophia was mostly oblivious for the remaining conversation, her heart thudding in her head like leprechauns with tap dancing shoes on. She breathed in sharply when Billy picked her up, surprised. Her small hand curled in his shirt as they went, not feeling nauseated—Just tired. She wasn’t sure what had possessed her, what made her want to go against one of the cardinal rules of her powers. She knew it had been wrong, to let the flora in. She knew it—But she’d done it anyway. She could have animated the plants without that. It had been so, so stupid. Why?

She felt the softness of her bed beneath her, and she sighed lightly and murmured ‘Merci’—Noting with relief that there were no spiders to be seen. Reflexively she tried to touch her hair, trying to make sure nothing had escaped her keen notice and burrowed in her auburn locks. Nothing but drying blood. She groaned faintly in annoyance, the sound quietly infused with a whine… Dried blood took forever to get out of her hair.

Resting, her head tilted towards Billy… She didn’t think they had met before. If they had, she would be doubly embarrassed that she didn’t know his name. “Forgive me…If we’ve already met…My memory seems…Wrong, today. Ah’m Sofie, M’sieu—And you?”

“They are good friends…The best kind of friends to have. Raine is…Probably our rock.”, she offered to him softly, her creole accent thickening, the more she relaxed.

“We’re all kind of…New to this too…To being on these teams. Have you heard the stories about them? Ah used to think non…not possible…But after this month…Ah think ah believe every word…”, she went on, pausing when Christian came into the room. He was wearing a shirt…She frowned. She liked him better without one.

She heard Billy’s tummy rumblings and felt bad for keeping him.

He sat down next to her on the bed, and a slow smile spread across her features…”Christian…”, she simply sighed his name, saying nothing else as he started to clean the blood off of her face. Just, simply happy to see him, having forgotten about the words of Dimitri. Though she giggled after a moment, the action causing her to tense with a phantom pain to her chest. She wasn’t going to enjoy that happening over the next few days… Glancing towards the seated Billy, she smiled lightly as her eyes fell closed… “Two handsome boys by my bedside…Ah haven’t had this many strapping men at my bedside since that night with the Varsity Lacrosse team…”

She chuckled, waiting for what she’d said to settle in. Of course, Christian would know she was teasing—Considering there were more than two players on a lacrosse team.

“If it flopped--That was a joke, homme's”

Omega: Kitchen - Annoyed

“Your point is lost and falling on deaf ears, love.”, Narcissa responded, her expression…Not something that would promote kindness. If Madison wanted to push her, the sun goddess was more than willing, and ready to push back. “The Junior teams were sent to Limbo with the primary target of stopping Belasco from merging worlds, and creating a literal hell on earth… Hell, I wasn’t even bloody there and I know that. Whether you found me or not is inconsequential. It just so happened that you or whomever had to cross my slightly insane self to get there.”

“The life of one mutant, even mine—Isn’t worth the world. So don’t pretend to go all noble and Alpha. You know what your mission was. Even if you had to kill me to get it done. It's called collateral damage.”, Narcissa called after the dysfunctional Omega as she left the kitchen with her new ward… The large syringe still in hand. Of course, forcing a burned girl who may or may not be able to see straight walk on her own was courteous. She half wondered if Madison was on drugs. Because there had to be some excuse—Some reason why the girl was acting half out of mind.

Though she did find herself unusually amused with the fact that dearest Maddie hadn’t bothered to argue half the points Narcissa threw back at her. Just as suspected, all bark, and no bite. Still… There was no room for dissension on the Omega’s. None, at all. If she wanted to act that way she might as well write home to Forge now and request a color change in uniforms.

A soldier that couldn’t follow orders… Couldn’t deal with a harsh reality… That was a soldier that ended up dead. It wasn’t a threat to any of her Omega’s… It was an eventuality.

Narcissa was…Inwardly confused. She stopped someone from shooting Aren in the head. Usually ended up pulling collective fat out of the fryer… Exactly what was she doing wrong? Her personality had nothing to do with her leading ability. She was harsh. And cold… But she could lead troops into a battle, not flinch, and win.

To her knowledge…She had yet to ask them to do anything that would compromise their precious morals… So she wasn’t entirely sure where Ammo was getting off.

Narcissa had seen Shandra run out… And she could only count to ten slowly in her head. She could guess as to the reasons… But there really wasn’t a bone in her at this point that could care. Antonio rushed out after her… The red head would be fine.

Tapping her comm as she leaned against the counter, she called Gideon again…”Veritas, haul a**!”

The blond sun goddess remained in the kitchen, waiting for Gideon to show up… If this Blair girl even deserved to have such stops pulled out for her. Somehow Narcissa doubted it. She slowly slipped into a wooden seat at the counter… Today felt like the longest day ever.

Alpha: Meeting the big dog

The paranoid playboy was glad to see that Christian decided to take the smart route and leave the situation and leave it up to Raine, who was not threatening him with electricity anymore it seemed; instead asking him about his arrival. Both of those actions made Dimitri calm down, cease his magma gun projectile and stopped him from doing something that he would regret for years to come. Unfortunately, his clothing was granted no mercy. At first, he arrived with simple shorts and a tanktop; after the magma trick however, his shorts were eaten up like chips, stopping just above the middle portion of his quadriceps. His tanktop was only holding on Dimitri's left trapezius muscle, or his neck revealing his right breast. In addition, his left and right midsecion was also revealed. Though one didn't really need to focus on small detail.

He looked like a mess, simple as that.

"Ye-Yeah, im new; i just got promoted to the alpha team."

She then told Dimitri to follow her but didn't say where, which made Dimitri a bit dubious but he grabbed his stuff and followed anyway. During their little walk, Dimitri stayed quiet and trusted where Raine was going to take him. Though the fact that he stayed quiet, without any jokes, innuendo's or simple questions that didn't involve the x-men made the trip a bit awkward, even if only for a few moments. But really he did want to talk to her; ask her how long has she been part of whatever team she was on, how long has she been going to the high school, etc. Dimitri however was...nervous?

No doubt his system was still tainted, along with the rest of the x-men. But did the leaders become victims as well? If not, then hopefully they would have some sort of solution. It was going to be difficult to tell though, and add the fact they didn't even know about it, made it close to impossible.

They arrived at the beach, where two lovely ladies were enjoying the nice blue clean water their vacation resort offered them. His stomach gave a hungry growl while Raine pointed him to their leader and that any questions he had Bella would have them answered before a quick introduction to herself with goodbye with a hint of flirting maybe?

"Heh..thanks." he replied as he blushed a bit, looked down and scratched his head with his left arm.

The Alpha Playboy, looking like a mess walked a bit closer to the two ladies in bathing suits in a nervous manner, as if he never approached a women in his entire life.

"Excuse me, Bella? Hey Raine sent me over here, but you probably saw that. Im the new recruit to the Alpha team..i got promoted."
