Luna looked up when she heard her name being yelled, "COLE!!" She ran to the bars that were behind the male and yelled again, "COLE I'M IN HERE!" She hoped he could hear her and she just waited and hoped all at the same time.
Lisa scowled at her twin, "What are you doing here Liza?"
Liza smirked, "Just wanted to be close to my twin."
"If you wanted to be close to me then you should live in the school not out here in the mountain. I know your an agent, I'm not stupid."
Liza laughed a rather evil laugh, "Okay well I don't want to be that close but my job lets me be kinda. Work these days."
Lisa shook her head and walked away from her twin, following Luke and Cole. She didn't interfere but she knew that her looks would cause the other agents to think she was her twin.

Mae didn't answer Kino, her silence was answer enough. She didn't have a clue, except that they were most certainly going into the mountain. Turning around the tenth bend, she saw an opening, and people. Cautiously, Mae stopped at the right before she left the tunnel, carefully looking about. There was the boy who had gone down here earlier. And the headmistress, with what looked exactly like a copy of her. Mae sniffed. I've seen stranger.
Nothing appeared to be wrong. Slightly she stuck one foot then the other, onto the floor of the underground room. What is this place. Mae remembered Kino, and signed to him behind her back. Wait. The headmistress was leaving, and Mae was left with the twin woman in the room. Not moving an inch, she tested her vectors, and her heart nearly stopped when they didn't come out. What is this?! Nothing works! Nothing! She was helpless. A situation Mae never had really found herself in. She had always been able to use her vectors, for good or for bad. I guess I'll just see what happens. I can always leave, quickly if something goes wrong.

Liza looked at the new student who appeared, "Oh this is too good. I don't have to go searching for them, their coming to me!" She clapped her hands and walked over to her, "Hello? Have you come to join the party?"

"Well there goes something you don't see everyday." He whispered lightly behind Mae. As the things with Lisa, Mae, and Liza began to unfold, and Liza walked up to Mae, Kino would motion questioningly. "Hmmm.." I'm beginning to question that time now.' His thoughts went back to the two who'd assaulted him and potentially followed. 'A Twin, one that doesn't sound trusting'.

Hearing Kino behind her, Mae mentally winced. Kino be quiet, please. Just stay there. Looking at Liza, she kept her face blank as she replied. "Who, or what are you? And what is this?" She motioned around the room. Mae was starting to feel a bit disturbed. It wasn't the woman who was bothering her, though she certainly contributed to the feeling. The fact that she couldn't use her vectors was strange and eerie. Unnatural. And Mae didn't like it. She didn't like any of it. We shouldn't be here. I have a bad feeling about this..

Cole skidded to a halt as he heard Luna's voice. He paused and looked around to find where her voice was coming from. He quickly spotted her and ran to her.
"Luna! Are you alright? How do I get you out?" he asked, rather rushed, as he looked at the bars, not sure how he was supposed to get in or get her out. He tried once more to turn back into a shadow but to no avail. He put his hands up to the bars and grabbed hold of them, squeezing them tight in his fists in slight anger.

Celeste stared for a moment, in shock. She had never seen anything like that before. She kept her distance while she continued to fly over the maze. Hopefully he will find something...or maybe I shouldn't want him to find anything. God only knows whats going on here. she thought to herself. She was flying as fast as she possibly could now. Hoping that she would know what was going on soon.

The darkness and dissolving had spread, taking both of his arms now and moving on to his head and chest. Momentarily, his entire torso was gone and his upper body was just an outline, with a black ring glowing where his heart would be. I am that which brings disaster, this body is my kingdom. These shards are my flesh, and this spirit my soul. The chant he had heard echoed in his mind again as he opened his eyes...
His eyes. His eyes had gone completely, and now his vision was scattered. His mind jumping from one shard to the next, he spread them out across the maze, a net of jump points for his eyes and ears. A moment later he experienced tunnel-vision, as his perception shot through the maze, from crystal to crystal, until he stopped at a gap in the hedge that appeared to be leading into a tunnel. Pulling his web tighter, he moved the crystals towards it and sent one up into the air above it, so it could be easily seen. Doing a quick sweep of what else there was and finding nothing unusual, he began pulling his body back together, leaving only an air beacon of three spaced crystals pointing down towards the gap in the hedge that appeared suspicious.
When his body reformed, he stood slowly, coughed up blood, and started to topple over backwards, dizzy. Slashes appeared in the ground around him as his body tried to regain the matter it had lost in sending out so many shards.
He was unconscious, and would remain so for about two minutes while the majority of his body's healing occurred.

Celeste was unsure as to what to do, she hovered over him, still staying a good distance away. "Are you ok?" she asked, with no reply. "I guess I should just hang out here until he awakens. This might take awhile." she thought to herself. she flew away from his still body and landed on the ground at a safe distance. She rested there as she waited.

Groaning and scarred, Nairi awakened after being knocked out for around two minutes. His body now at least worked, so he wouldn't die from the internal damage. But damn it hurt, though the pain was starting to numb away. He tried standing, tentatively, and fell back down with the floor spinning slowly around him. I could really do with a cane right now... With a thin smile, he tried again to regain his balance, this time a bit more successfully, though it brought on a coughing fit that brought more of his blood out from his body. Not good, but he could live with it - he'd been worse before.
Looking at his right arm, his last two fingers and a little of his arm were still missing. Good, that meant the markers he had left were still intact. Climbing up onto the hedge, though it was a struggle due to his condition, was no great feat now - he had lost nearly 15 pounds from the shift, and his body was light enough that the stiff plants supported it easily. Looking up into the air, he saw the last floating shards. Alright, so that's where we need to go. Good.
"Sorry about that, but it at least gave something. Are you alright? It's clear now." He called into the air, figuring that Celeste would hear it.

Celeste walked over slowly. "Are you alright?" she asked with a worried look on her face. She looked him up and down and started to speak softly once more. "That had to hurt. Is there anything I can do?"

"Trust me, it's better not to ask. My bad luck shouldn't be shared by others." Nairi turned away and staggered forward, looking at the air and pointing. "Do you see those black things up there? I saw something, some sort of tunnel from under the hedge wall. I had a bad feeling about it, and it's all I found, so that's where we should look." Falling back into a brief fit of coughs, the last of the blood he thought would come out for now fell from his mouth. Heavy use healed the insides much faster, so he didn't die, but he would be dizzy and sore for a while to come.
Starting to walk and slipping sideways, he bent his knees and steadied himself. "Do you think you could lead the way?"

Liza had a sweet smile on her face, "I'm Liza, Lisa's twin sister. I hope my power negator doesn't bother you, it is something I created many years ago and use it so that we can have peaceful negotiations." She was lying out her teeth, but they didn't know that.
Luna grabbed his hands and looked him in the eye, "I'm not sure how to get out. I can't transform or else I'd become the key. I'm sure a guard or two around here has a key or something, as they've been taking the student's and locking them in here." She saw Luke but looked back at Cole.

Cole stared at Luna and nodded, a determined look on his face. He was going to find a way to get her out. He had to.
He moved his fingers away from the bars just enough to touch her wrists, trying to reassure her.
"Alright. I'll look for one. I'll get you out, don't worry." He slowly pulled his hands away and he sped off down the hall, his feet pounding against the ground. It was so inconvenient that he couldn't transform here. It would make things so much easier. But no. He couldn't. Things just had to be hard. Oh well. He would have to use brute strength or cunning. Or both.

Mae's voice cut through Liza's lie like ice. "Then why have you captured several of us. Peaceful negotiations do not start with prisoners." She skirted around the word mutants gracefuly. "If you really wished to have a 'peaceful negotiation' with me, you wouldn't even have bothered with the power negator, unless you were going to try something." Mae prided herself with being extremely good at seeing through people's words, as she did right now. The woman was lieing. Obviously. "Look, I don't know what your doing, and frankly, I don't want to. But we're not as stupid as you think. And I know enough that you're not as stupid as you look." She threw in the insult for good measure. Partly, she wanted to see what the woman's reaction would be, and secondly, Mae's more...blood thristy side wanted to lure Liza outside so she could kill her. Liza was obviously an enemy. Obviously.
