Courting Death - Signs
Kalypso wasn't sleeping, she didn't need to sleep, but she was letting herself doze a bit and let her mind wander. Jack was asleep next to her and she was aware of his rhythmic breathing. She idly wondered what he was dreaming of and while it was tempting to peek into his dreams, Kal respected his privacy.

Her mind wandered.

Then came the warning from her mother. "Stay away from Olympia!" Then Sersi's mental presence was gone. Cut off as quickly as it came.

Kal quickly sat up in the bed. "Mother?" she sent out.

No response.

She searched for other Eternals and found none.

	The bed shifting roused Jack enough to reach out for Kalypso. "Ev'rything 'kay?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"I don't know," she said. "I got a warning from Mother to stay away from Olympia and then she was gone. I can't find her, or any other Eternal for that matter." The worry in her voice was easy to hear. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The worry brought him to instant awareness. "Any way we can find out where she is without actually going to Olympia?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal shook her head and climbed out of the bed. "No. I have to go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can't find any of them. Something happened to my entire family. I can't just sit here and not go." Kal started pulling on clothes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He climbed out of the bed on the other side and reached for his clothes. His clubs were just beyond his sketch pad and he reached for them next. "All right." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It didn't take long to get dressed. Kal didn't even tell him he shouldn't go. She knew they would argue and she didn't have time for arguing. "Ready?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2013-05-28 12:14 am UTC (link)
	"Yes." Smart Eternal, because he certainly would have argued. "Let's find out what's happening." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Azura had been a deep post-coitus sleep when Alex started. She bolted out of bed and had Godslayer in her hand. Naked and armed, she looked around for the cause of the alarm. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex manages to sit up, holding his arms across his chest. He's not quite sobbing, but he's not far off from it. "It's... it's all wrong..." He turns to look at his bedmate, a distant expression mixed in with the trauma. "Azura... you're still... still alive, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: In another part of the galaxy only_half_here 2013-06-05 11:26 pm UTC (link)
	The tip of Godslayer went to his throat. "What in the universe are you doing?" Clearly not happy she had been roused from sleep. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: In another part of the galaxy spacepalm 2013-06-05 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	He doesn't even seem to register the physical threat, eyes hardly registering anything in the room. "It's all wrong... It's all wrong." The green fades, just a little. "The dead... are not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: In another part of the galaxy only_half_here 2013-06-05 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	It took a moment for Azura to realize that Alex's skin was green. "QUILL!" she yelled. She still didn't move Godslayer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He starts, and the color practically falls out of him. He looks... downright pale. Normally there's some disconnect between his Messiah states and his normal mindset, but this time, he clearly keeps it all. It takes him half a minute before he gets to his feet. "I need my pants, a gun, and the team." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The resurrected Kree continued their tireless march through the Kree empire. Living Kree were quickly overwhelmed by the undead forces. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Red was at his usual place at the weapons station (in his booster seat, of course). "That... is looking very messy down there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iason heads for the airlock. "It does. So we need to intervene." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2013-06-17 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	Azura grinned. "Which means we can't make it anymore of a mess." In the back of her head Abel groaned. She was right on Iason's heels. "Give a girl a ride down?" She could get a head start on Red. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jean Louise just stood at the window and stared at first, but followed along behind everyone else who was going, though she wasn't going to ask to get there sooner than the bulk of them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'll do my best." Iason agrees, giving Azura a lift at her request. He wishes he had more of the typical Eternal powers for requests like that. Harder to utterly disintegrate things with no transmutational ability - but its worth a try. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2013-06-18 12:47 am UTC (link)
	Azura hanged on while Iason took them down to the surface. Once her feet hit the ground she drew Godslayer and charged in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
