[Private]

I know what I said, but she probably isn't coming back. Whatever 'answers' she had were enough to kill her over.

...Well I've been saying I want to go back out for awhile now. No time like the present.

[/Private]

[Reno Browne]

There's been an incident. Please tell me you contacted that friend of yours from the south, and that they had some awe-inspiring amount of information to share.

[/Reno Browne]

[Albedo]

Are you...okay?

[/Albedo]

[Sylvanas]

Up for another camping trip?

[/Sylvanas]

[Akihiko & Kent]

The answer seems pretty obvious since you didn't say anything immediately, but I'm just making sure... You didn't catch them, did you?

Did you at least see which direction they were heading?

[/Akihiko & Kent]

[ EDITED IN LATER ]: [Fifth Doctor]

I know this is last minute but can I use your TARDIS tomorrow morning? To get to the barrier.

Considerably so.

It might be a long one. Did you hear about what happened after the festival the other day?

Fair enough. [...] I've only heard whispers of urgency among the commotion.

Joy showed up again, in human form. She was looking for Akihiko, apparently wanting to tell him the answers she didn't have before.

Two people in metal suits showed up and sniped her before she could share anything. Kent tried to go after them, but I guess he wasn't fast enough... I haven't heard anything since then.

[the plot thickens, she muses...]

Dp you intend to find answers with this little trip of yours?

What else? And I figure if anyone's good at tracking...

[stupid rogue Ps messing with my tags!]

Provided I am on the same page as you, of course. I found it necessary to set the journal aside for a few days, do understand.

[ silence, way to make the crazy man confused. but hey no taunting today, he's still pretty pissed off at the castle cock blocking him. he wanted answers and they were taken from him--

is he fine? no, is he hurt? no, he is mad, he is furious, he wants to go to sleep and never wake up. he wants to return to jr.'s subconscious where he was happy and at peace but he can't... he can't... ]

Why I am right as rain Rubedo, or so the saying goes. [ what a lie, but he isn't even trying to hide it right now ]

[ fff didn't even notice ]

Unfortunately there isn't much more to share. I'm waiting to hear from Browne, and going to see if Clark Kent saw which direction they headed towards.

I don't know if confronting them right now is the smartest call, when they have powers in the Dead Zone and we don't, but at the very least we can try some recon.

I figure two or three people'll be a lot faster than a large group.

You know it's got nothing to do with you. The castle blocks a lot of abilities...

Ah but that, Rubedo, is the problem.

So you can't revive the dead. Does it bother you that much? I don't see you losing sleep over something like that.

Don't be stupid. [ he doesn't need that, that is only a means to an end, the link, the-- ]

The answers Rubedo. It denied me of answers, slammed the door shut on my fingers; this pathetic, useless construct of mud and brick denied me of answers.

News flash, this world doesn't revolve around you. It denied everyone answers.

Don't worry, I'll see if I can figure out what those answers were.

[ there's a loud thud in the background, a kirschwasser was just thrown into a wall the poor thing. then silence, rage subsiding just a little, he's getting out of this damned building, moving yes yes. it can keep those answers, for now, he has more important things to do ]

Hahaha, I'm not worrying, it's a waiting game. [ pause and some shuffling in the background ] Besides, I have other plans. [ lalala journal closed ]

What was --

[ god damnit ]

Hey, Albedo!

[ ...bastard B| ]

Understood.

Yes, I'd rather initiate something far more covert and quite frankly, more capable, rather than watch over trouble-making amateurs. [a beat] Did you have a third person in mind?

Close, but no cigar. Got close enough to grab one and he surprised me with an energy blast, and slipped across the border.

They were going north-west, though.

North-west... Got it.

You're okay though, right?

Hahah, well, I may not be the most covert person out there, but I'm working on it, really.

[ considering pause ]

Not particularly, but I figure someone's gonna end up volunteering by the time we actually get out there. Not that I'm announcing this or anything, but there are a few people I gotta tell.

I'll see if one of the Doctors will let us use the TARDIS to get us to the barrier.

[ another minute ]

Kent says they were heading north-west. So I guess we'll start there.

My contact was in a right miserable mood when I met him. Told me, in less-than-polite terms, that I had no right to poke my nose in their business... but that isn't to say he wasn't helpful at all.

He's got one of your suits, for starters.

If I ever meet them again, they owe me a new shirt. Otherwise? I'm fine.

Are you shitting me?! Can you describe it?

The fact that they can use that kind of power in the Dead Zone...is really not very inspiring. Unless there's another area out there where we can use our abilities, we can't even put up a decent fight unless it's here.

And I amnot a fan of sitting around and waiting to be attacked. I didn't trust Joy, but burying her body was pretty much the opposite of fun. I'm gonna see if I can track them and at least get a better idea of what we're up against here.

They might not even be our enemies... Theft and suspicious sniping aside, one of them did help us with that doctor.

Gunmetal and titanium panels –– or so I'm guessin' –– with blue lights in the helmet, and round lights set in the hands and chest. Flew, too.
