Welcome to Gaia! ::

ENTER from STARK


A shadow swirled in the corner of the large room of the Sanctum, and a man in a blood-red outfit slowly rose from the shadow. He stepped out and away from the shadow so that his 'guest' could follow.


/// ....sleep...g'night.... ///

"Your guess is as good as mine." Reaper replied. "Strange was in his study, now he's gone...along with what I suspect is a large number of super heroes. The note was the only thing we found that was out of place."

And, as far as Doctor Strange went...there was nothing out of the ordinary. Other than the fact that the room was empty and he'd left a hastily written list of names, which was still carefully being held by Reaper.




Alcina continued to simply sit on the couch and stare at the floor. Only difference was now...she wasn't thinking about X, or her son, or how useless she was. Now she was thinking about what she'd picked up from Reaper's mind.
Many heroes were gone. Strange was gone.
There wasn't...there wasn't much she could do though, right? She didn't fully have her powers back yet or anything. And even if she did, what could she do? She wanted to...had to do something though. With what Strange had done for her, she couldn't just simply sit here and feel horrible about herself.

"I doubt it." he replied. "He was down in the kitchen cooking. He went to check on things when I came down, then came back with the note."

ENTER from METROPOLIS


A shadow suddenly engulfed the corner of the main room, and a number of figures soon rose out of it. Reaper, Shadow Spider, Alex, Steel Spider, and two young girls took a step out of the corner as the shadow retreated back to it's natural form.
Shadow glanced around the room, then seemed to pick a couch that wasn't being used. Another shadow rose up from under the couch and engulfed it. As it disappeared, a woman in a torn, battered, and bloodied costume lay across it.
Alex and Steel glanced around the room, both rather impressed. Alex quickly shook her thoughts clear, trying to keep herself focused on the current situation. She could scope things out later. "Alright. Now what about Sapphire? she said to Reaper, motioning towards the unconscious woman.

Reaper looked at her a moment, then moved towards her to try and see what he could do. Bending down, he placed his hand on her shoulder. She was unconscious...but merely out of lack of energy. Her broken bones had healed, her internal wounds were healed, and all of the superficial wounds were fine. She just...had no energy left. Odd. Not to mention he couldn't do a thing about something like this.

"I'll take a look at her." someone from the other couch said gently.

Reaper turned to find the woman...erm, goddess rather, turned around in her seat to so that she could look at the group. He hesitated a moment. "You can fix this." he asked.

Alcina closed her eyes a moment as she got to her feet. She walked over towards the couch and opened her eyes to look down at Reaper. "It shouldn't be a problem." she replied.

Reaper nodded and moved away from the couch so that the woman could do what was needed. "She'll be fine. Is there anything else?" Reaper asked as he approached the three women.

Before the other two could answer, Shadow gave him a rather serious look. "I'm sure their needs can wait for a moment now. Mine, however, cannot." she said.

Reaper looked at her a moment, then sighed. "Alright. You two are welcome to make yourselves comfortable here. Just don't touch anything. Seriously. Everything in here is magic based and rather dangerous."

With that, both Shadow and Reaper disappeared into the darkness again.
