Calling for Some Help (Champions)
Slowly news of the theft of the Quantum Mirror reached Akantha and she knew that it could be behind the erratic behavior of some of the world's super heroes. She booked a flight and then she was on the plane to New Orleans to visit the Champions.

	"Don't touch anything!" Akantha yelled. "This place is full of very old and sometimes very powerful artifacts!" "Gods," she grumbled quietly. "Such a pain the ass." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So don't touch the things here. Got it," Eric says almost about to touch a rather scary looking circlet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jenny was fascinated. It was hard to be focused with so many interesting things around. Her natural inclination to keep her hands to herself (and avoid causing a domino crash disaster) was the only thing that kept her from touching something. "Don't touch anything," she quietly reminded herself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rose takes that to heart and shoves her hands inside of her coat. Some of these things look like they might be harmless but she has a feeling that many of them are meant to look that way to trick people. "Was it held in place in any special way?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Argo pulled his hand back. "My apologies, fair lady." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_adult 2012-12-12 11:28 pm UTC (link)
	"Thank you," she said with a sigh of relief. "Some of these artifacts are locked away for a reason and the owner of this vault would be very unhappy if we disrupt his collection." "Not that I'm aware of. I haven't been in here in awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The thief knows about this place. How many people could that realistically be? Maybe that fact can tell us who might have taken it and where they can be found." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_adult 2012-12-13 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	"Not many. The people I know who know the location of this vault would never steal anything from it. We don't steal from each other. It had to be an outside party." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Nick doesn't touch anything except the empty space on the shelf, still trying to see if there's any kind of magical impressions or the like here, or anything strong enough associated with this place to get Zarathos' interest. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_misc 2012-12-13 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	Nick will sense the presence of strong magic being used around the spot where the mirror once sat. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	son_of_hercules 2012-12-14 12:20 am UTC (link)
	Argo just stood back, trying not to touch anything. This was the boring part. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_adult 2012-12-15 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	Akantha walked around and looked at the shelves. Akhenaton was so secretive about what was in his vault that she had to look around and see what he had. "Anything?" she asked Nick after she had taken some time to look. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Definite magic use, enough evil to get the Rider's attention. I might be able to get a fix, but it comes with risks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_adult 2012-12-16 06:19 pm UTC (link)
	"What risks?" Akantha asked. "If the risks are too great there are some other ways of tracking the thief," she said. She noticed a particular object on a shelf and gently picked it up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Same as always. To track something, I need to give the Rider some leash - who isn't always a team player. We're also relying, at that point, that whoever stole this is the greatest evil around. If not, the Rider's soul sense may zero in on someone else entirely. On the other hand, if they are on top of the naughty list, it'll be by far the easiest way to find them."

	"They've deliberately brought about something that's causing massive earthquakes and, possibly, a nuclear war scare if i heard the news correctly. I say we can lay money on their being pretty darn evil." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Indeed! This whole affair stinks of evil! A foul, nefarious stench, like the stench of a thousand unwashed evil socks!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I see," she said. "Perhaps this will help. I didn't realize he had it in his vault." The last part was quiet and mostly under her breath. She held up a compass. "This will help guide your way if you cannot rely on the Ghost Rider. It once belonged to Meriwether Lewis, so please be very careful with it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It sounds like most think its a good call. Irina?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2012-12-17 12:43 am UTC (link)
	"Use the compass if we can, if not then the Rider," she advised. She didn't like dealing with the Rider and avoided it as much as possible. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2012-12-17 12:57 am UTC (link)
	Nick nods. He knows she remembers what happened to her father. And it seems like good advice anyway. This is important - and the compass may do the job fine. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Corey's fine with non-rider ways, too, certainly. "Okay. So.." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-17 06:54 pm UTC (link)
	"So, somebody turn that thing on and let's get on with it. If you haven't noticed, the atmosphere in here makes your skin crawl. There's something in the air." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	warbird 2012-12-17 06:59 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah this place is really weird," Eric says, "Like some crazy scary museum." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_adult 2012-12-17 08:24 pm UTC (link)
	"Egypt is lovely this time of year," Akantha said. "If we're ready, Irina can take me home and you guys can get started." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
