"Sounds like someone's joined the world of consciousness," Olivia cringed at Kat's pained groaning, "So. Twin #1 says we gotta get rid of this Lincoln fellow. How will this keep the rest of them off our backs, or do we have secret ties to The Justice League?"

Eulalia Danae Roxanna winced slightly at Kat's noise, "At least we know she's recovering." She let out a shrug and took a seat on the couch. "I suppose we will need a plan of attack eventually. This may get messy." "Oh, you bet. We keep pushing buttons, they're gonna keep trying to get rid of us. Eventually, one of us is gonna have to make a big move. I just hope we've wheeled ourselves in a good enough position to be able to stand and fight when it comes to that."

Kat looked at Marcus, "Who are you and why do I all of a sudden have a fairy-drug-mother?" She cringed at the sound of her own words in her head and took the offered pain pills. She swallowed a few of them down with some water, "Feels like I kissed a damn psychic." She paused, trying to make sense of things, "I kissed a damn psychic. Why did none of you tell me I was kissing a pyschic?"

Ruby St.Claire Kat looked at Marcus, "Who are you and why do I all of a sudden have a fairy-drug-mother?" She cringed at the sound of her own words in her head and took the offered pain pills. She swallowed a few of them down with some water, "Feels like I kissed a damn psychic." She paused, trying to make sense of things, "I kissed a damn psychic. Why did none of you tell me I was kissing a pyschic?" Marcus furrowed a brow. "I am Marcus Shipp, the so-called 'Black' that Miss Corey and Mister Rook were sent to recruit. You were injured in some event with a Keeper attempting to infiltrate my home, at which juncture there was an incident with several more Keepers, the final result being them leaving with the girl you had attempted to glean information from with you talent. Upon the resolution of that event, we came here, a safehouse and new base of operations, with the possibility of you current base being comprimised," He offered her the glass of water next, "Rook and Roxanna are both here, and a man named Jarred is on his way, as well. You are safe, now."

"You should do less talking." Kat said, taking the water and drinking some, before burying her head in the pillow. "Let me know when Jarred gets here. If the psychic got the location of the apartment it could be bad for him."
She slowly started to remember the events leading up to the psychic chick's kiss, and groaned even further. At least she didn't have to be in Jeffery's head any more listening to the man curse her. The wound of that still stung, but not so much as her head, so she let it pass.

He nodded.
"Absolutly." He said, not exactly letting on to what he was confirming, "We'll be in the other room. Groan if you need us." He said, and left the room, leaving the impression of a man that was entirely too cheery for his given situation.

mqnania "Sounds like someone's joined the world of consciousness," Olivia cringed at Kat's pained groaning, "So. Twin #1 says we gotta get rid of this Lincoln fellow. How will this keep the rest of them off our backs, or do we have secret ties to The Justice League?" "It won't keep them off our backs, but it'll get the maniac off our backs. Technically we're all likely to die, but Lincoln is the one who would enjoy the killing." Roxanna glanced back at Rook. "Don't get so over confident, Rook, we're only facing Eva's keepers at the moment. We're tickling the giant's toe. You know that more than I do."

"Whoa whoa wait-" Olivia tripped over the chair as she stood up, gaining her footing again, "You mean there's more to this than just here on St Eva? Is this like, all over the world?"
She stood blank for a moment before taking her nearly empty cigarette case out of her pocket, "I'm saving this last cigarette for when I die. Yep."

Rook nodded.
"Oh yeah. Lots of 'Hell, we all die' moments. The idea is to weaken the structure here, maybe get some more of the local flavor riled up. We force them to make a big move, play a game on our terms much rather than on their's. I don't see how else we can make any kind of lasting, meaningful impact otherwise."

Roxanna gave Olivia an apologetic smile, "I'm afraid it's somewhat true. And as Rook says, there will be plenty of those moments where we are sure we're going to die. Eva is most definitely the key, however. It has more potential at bringing them down than anything else."

Rook sighed, sitting down.
"However, if we keep it smart, we all might just live long enough to get out of this alive, so... Don't be stupid, and we'll make it good."

Taking her seat again, she leaned forward, propping her elbows on her knees, feeling slightly defeated, "I think I'm going to go meditate...or something."

Sam and Jeffery had gotten separated from the inconspicuous caravan by a red light and traffic, forced to show up later. On the way they were passed by a black Porsche, which, if it had been going slow enough to actually get a good look, would have looked incredibly cramped.

"Sometimes the stupid decisions have the better results," Roxanna said absently, "I just hope we're lucky. " She glanced at Olivia, meditation might be nice, or some calming tea...chamomile works well for that."
She smiled as she noticed Sam and Jeffery walk in. "I'm glad you finally made it."
From the other room came the occasional groan which was point enough that Kat was awake and rather unhappy about it.

Surprisingly enough, it was Jarred and Adam, their dogs in tow, who had arrived first, speeding the entire way in his car, him cutting them off being one of the reasons the other two hadn't yet arrived.
Jarred knocked at the door, looking slightly impatient.
