OOC: I won't allow you to knock out people without my go anymore. I also would prefer you don't exclude everyone in the future..
But for now, lets just go with this. I don't want to back up over everything again.
(I know I talked to some of you about this, it's more a message for everyone, okay?)
BIC:
Lillith frowned at the question. The room had been half emptied.
Oh yes, lovely plan. Lets all disband and forget about whats happening.
She sighed, leaning back against the wall. The girl shook her head.
"I've been having those visions for a while.." at least he was level headed. "They're usually very cryptic. "
She looked out sideways into the hallway. "..oh. I'm not a very good leader.." she noted.
Clyde frowned.. "What'd everyone run off for anyway?" he wondered. Maybe he should have gone too. Two of the girls had left, and only one was here. The odds outweighed his.
"I don't know. I guess it's up to us to think of something." Lillith said. She looked up to Andrew, and then back to Clyde.
"What do you think?"
"I think we should get everyone." Clyde answered.
-----
Caitlyn stood up shakily in the hallway. Who was that? What a total jerk..
Ow... she staggered a little. She hadn't even seen him coming.. Voices were audible down the hallway. She frowned, staggering after them. She'd give them a piece of her mind, she would.

Andrew stops in mid step
"you two were to hide your selves, you two are not at full strength and i don't want you to get hurt any more."
He walks to Lilith, looks to Clyde and Drake then to Lilith again. "As it stands now we do not have time to talk over your visions or what they mean, once we are free from here and it is safe to talk about such thing, then, then we can go over them. for now Maura maybe telling the stuff here all that we know and what we plan on doing. Leeyn said there was a first aid kit under her bed, take it when you leave here. and remember, to met the rest of us in the laundry room when the call to dinner is sounded."

She glared at him. "I can take care of myself." she answered patiently.
The girl frowned a little, trying to keep a straight face. "Our meeting was supposed to be now. Not later. This was supposed to be the deciding factor. And I can plainly state that I am quite well enough at what I do; thank you. I may not be at top strength, but I can still control my element.. unlike some others here."

Andrew is taken of guard, he was trying to protect them, protect them all, Tortle held the knowledge he did now and lillith the future.
Andrew looks back in to Lilith's eyes, his gray eyes showing his confusion and concern. "well some thing has come up and Max has other strengths in the group just as you have yours, he is doing fine for what i need him for, what we need him for. you maybe in full control of your element but if you were hit, i don't know what is going to happen but i do not wish to see any more of your blood."
"Please, the longer we stand here our window of opportunity closes alittle more."

Drake sighed. Things were going well, or maybe not. Who knew at this point. What was Lillith's plan if Andrew hadn't already sent out Max. It wasn't right for him to start off without everyone agreeing. Also, he had a good way of getting out, but things could go wrong.
Drake glanced up, "So I supose you want Andrew and I to stay here?" He asked her.
He wondered what she planned to do if they were all here, wait for tortle to find them!?

The bathroom was not as lush as one might have expected. The fluorescence of the lights flickered signaling the end of at least one bulb's life. The floor and walls were tiled in the same grey speckled ceramic squares. Maura, gagged in the corner of the shower, eyes closed, had scratches across her face that wept slightly, but no longer bled. Her feet, a shard still imbedded inbetween the second and third right toes, bled only lightly, mingling with the water of a dripping tap, forming sunset cloud-like swirls upon the floor of the shower stall. A large, calloused hand clasped firmly across Leeyn's mouth and nose, another arm wrapped about her chest, pinning her arms. She heard a male's voice. "Make any noise, and I won't take my hand off your face when you pass out."
----
Mr. Ross sat in his chair, steepling his fingers. "This is odd behaviour you're exhibiting, Matthew," Mr. Ross's voice was unconcerned, untouched by the anger that mottled his neck. "You tell me that it is my move, but I don't even know what game you think we are playing." He rose. "Before using strong language, Matthew," he started to walk slowly, casually toward his filing cabinet, "you might want to consider how this will affect your standings. If you I am correct, you are a well liked student." Ross shot him a head-titled glance, implying comraderie, but did not wait for a response. His sausage fingers caressed a thick hard covered book that rested upon the cabinet's top. He picked it up and thumbed through it, testing its weight, as he walked. "I have never heard any true complaints about you. Sometimes a teacher has noticed a bit of reactionaryism on your part, but most have equated that with your deep connection to the course content." He crossed to beside Max, so they could face each other. Stale coffee. He reeked of stale coffee. "I, on the other hand, think you are more trouble than you're worth." The book snapped shut and careened with surprising precision into Max's temple and cheekbone.

"I don't know." she answered. "..I'm sorry."
She looked down for a few seconds after that. The light in the room made her look really tired, but she wasn't... was she? She didn't know.
She was so pale. Always so pale.
"..I guess we should follow them then.." she answered.

Leeyn's eyes widened, the man behind her was attempting to knock her out so the girl assessed her options. She could recreate her skin cells into those of plant cells and start taking in the necessary through her newly devolped stoma, then make it look like she passed out. But then what? She didn't want to attack this man, and she know she couldn't pretend she was unconscious for a lengthy amount of time. She could just do what the man wanted her to do and pass out. But then who would help Maura? Quietly she closed her eyes and sprouted tough veins from the muscles in her neck and entwined them around the attacker's fingers, prying them away from her mouth. "I'm sorry sir, but my friend is in need of care. I promise to be quiet if you just let me tend to her wounds... please?"

"Holy sweet merciful mother f---," the person behind her swore. If it had been cartoon, his jaw would have hit the ground so loudly it would have made a sickening smooshing sound. As it was, he pushed her away from her into the sink, flattening himself up against the wall, and drew a small hand gun. Pointing it at her, he shook visibly, "What the h--- are you? Some kind of mother f------ freak! Holy f--- me. You stay back! You come close, I swear, J---- C-----, I'll put a hole in you so f------ fast..." He motioned with the weapon's barrel that she was free to move toward Maura, more likely than not, because it was farther away from him. Mr. Little, a tall, slender, greasy man from the administrative wing of the orphanage, never did take surprises well.

Leeyn didn't like guns, there was nothing that would prevent her from dying if a bullent penetrated her chest. Nothing could make her cells convert fast enough to help. "Sorry! Sorry! Please don't shoot! I won't harm you... I'm nothing but a weak little girl with some odd growth problems." The girl chuckled nervously, moving slowly over to Maura. The girl didn't look healthy, nor comfortable in the corner of the shower. "Maura? are you awake? It's me... Leeyn. I'm here to help you." The teen gently undid the gag around her roomates mouth. "Please don't make any noises or the man with the gun might get scared..."

"OK, then you are coming with us? at the first sign that we have gotten in over your heads a want both you and Clyde to get to safety." Andrew moves closer to Lilith and reaches out with his hand. "Lilith i want to cerate a, well, safety cord between us, it will tell the other if any thing is wrong and allow us to communicate with out words. Now I'm going to touch you for a moment, please your hand will do."

Lillith studied this option in her mind, unsure. She didn't really like the concept.
She was hesitant. Her fear in touching other people was almost irrational. She did what he asked though, frowning.

Andrew nods, and holds your hand. His hand is warm and is gone all to soon. there is a flash of white light and you hear in the darkness that follows Andrew's voice "To close, Lilith this isn't what should to happen..." Andrew is there now, he looks worried and confused. "i don't under stand whats going one, this has never happened before... but i have never tried to make two way connection before either... Lilith i can't let go..." at that he is gone replaced with site and sound, you are some where else, this is not the orphanage. it is what a home would look like, it seems familiar some how. there, in the other room, thats crying. as you would enter the room the Sean shifts. now a man and a young boy with brown hair stand in the living room. the man is yelling then stop for a moment then strikes the child. the boy hits the floor does not move but begins to cry... the man turns the TV volume up till you can no long hear the sobs. they fade and the crying in the next room starts again. every thing fades to black and Andrew is there again. "you shouldn't be able to see this..."

"..then why can I..?" she whispered, confused. It was horrifying and almost cold..
There was a fade again; two children, maybe eight years old. They were in the orphanage.
"..not this.." Lillith said, shivering a bit. She didn't want him to see this.
'We should run away; they hit you all the time; it's not safe'
'I'm scared. I want to stay here.'
'It'll be okay.'
There was darkness, gunshots. It all came in flashes. The body of a small boy. Blue eyes, watching in horror from the floor herself. Being dragged down a hall, beaten. She was surprised she wasn't dead too.
Darkness again.
"..why can you see this? Whats happening?"
