"Speak your mind," the Stranger said soothingly, "Although you might not believe it to be, the free and indepentent thoughts of one such as yourself could be the fulcrum upon which your success rests upon."

Sapphire paused a moment. "It's just....I'm not sure how much I'll be able to do later on. With my current...situation...I have to keep around Warp so he can reverse the process when I need him to. I can't do a whole lot when I'm fully pregnant...but I can't have children to watch over either." she replied.

The Phantom Stranger, now directly in front of her, put a hand on her arm, and said, "A valid concern. Take Warp with you. I sense a need that will require you to act again soon after this, but after that, you should have the time you need."

Sandra, who had been standing and watching the others talk, through either magic or by her own sight, located Warp.
"Excuse me," she said. "But it seems one of the people here who is friends with Alex is very distraught. May I inquire as to why?"
Meanwhile, in the guest bedroom he was in, Lucas blinked and looked to Alex. "Hey," he said, smiling a little. "So, all these people are friends of yours?"

Misty paused a moment again, thinking of what to say. "Will they....do you know if they'll be alright? My sisters? The children? I just....I knew what and who I had to worry about at home. Here...I don't want a repeat. I don't want to worry about them being killed."
Warp turned to the other woman and shifted akwardly. "Well...she's having quite a bad experience on this planet. She has a few more people more than willing to hunt her down now...she nearly died...her younger sisters are here, and she's trying not to have more vulnerable children to keep hidden." he replied.
Alex looked up at him and smiled a bit. "Sorry...I thought this room was empty. Could use some quiet time now. Yeah. Most of them are my friends."

"Well, come in, sit down," Lucas said,. sitting up a bit.
"She's pregnant?" Sandra asked, and this got Carol's attention, as the Zamaron Queen had followed her.

The Phantom Stranger withdrew his hand, his expression now looking somewhat remorseful. "I cannot say, Misty. I cannot tell or predict the future. Such a feat is beyond even my reach. However, I believe that with the proper care, yes, they would be fine."

Misty sighed a bit. "Alright."" she replied quietly.
Alex smiled some and walked up to the bed. There, she kicked off her boots and slid onto the bed to sit beside him. She let out another long sigh and relaxed back. "Can't wait to get a chance for things to just...calm down again."
".....it's a long story." Warp replied. "But yes. She's pregnant."

Lucas grinned a bit. "Things will only calm down for so long, you know," he replied, looking at her.
"I've got time to listen," Sandra said to Warp with her eyes narrowed. Carol, too, narrowed her eyes and folded her arms, using her ring to change into her formal business attire.

"I know that is not the answer you wanted," the Stranger said, trying to console her a little, "But hopefully, it will come to pass."

"Yeah. I'll just...have to do what I can until then." she replied. She was just so paranoid that someone dangerous was going to get ahold of her or the kids. She didn't want a repeat of Blackstone, or worse. She didn't think she had it in her to watch children get killed again.
"Yeah." she replied with a sigh. Then groaned and leaned her head back. "It would be better if there was a break in between it though, you know? Something...fun. Completely un-work-related. Takes too long to get to or go Clubbing. Why watch tv when you can sleep. Movies are crappy."
Warp hesitated. "Well...from what I understand, she had this very brief affair, as in one night, and ended up with a take home prize. The guy was taken to jail or something, but not before threatening to hunt her down and kill her and the kids. That was a while back. We saved her from a near death experience and I had to use my powers to heal her stomach. She was in a coma for a couple days, then woke up. She was...set forward more than she needed to be, so she had me set her back." he replied.

"You... de-aged an infant?! Why the hell would you do something like that?!" Sandra demanded, and her eyes flared up with much intensity.
Lucas smiled. "Yeah, I suppose so," he said. "So, what would you do?"

Warps eyes widened. "Because she begged me to. I had an episode outside the building she was in when she was with him. I sped up the entire process, and she was in the third stage by the time she was taken out of there. She knew she couldn't do much of anything in that state, and had far too many people that would take advantage of that if they seen her. And if she had them, the man would probably kill them. She's watched children she's cared about murdered before. She's freaked out about going through something like that again.." he replied.
"Well..." Alex replied thoughtfully. "Normally I go clubbing on my days off. Or hang out with some of the gang. But...most of the gang isn't here. And the others are....heh. Having some issues worked out. Not surprising."

"Don't worry, Misty," the Stranger said, "I'll be watching you."
