Stuck in a Blood sucking world
Olivia looked at Sarah and then looked around. Where were the rest of the Exiles? Shouldn't they be with them? "Where are the others?" she asked Sarah. "Shouldn't they be here?"

"If I could carry a mission log with me more easily, I would, so people could get a primer on the journey so far." A bit of a deep breath. "Staking vampires is one thing. The second world we went to, most of the people we knew had become vampires. We had to put down vampire children, cut people's heads off in their sleep while looking at people we knew... I crushed the Black Panther to death against a wall, because there was no other way. Then one of our teammates tried to take a shortcut to solving the Tallus' riddle, and shot one of our few living allies in the head... and we found out there are no shortcuts. We were stuck there, until I helped Allison disintegrate the vampire version of my Aunt Ororo. We get some pretty horrible assignments sometimes. Allison was one of our first casulties two worlds later. A version of Quicksilver snapped her neck, just like that."

	Sarah sighs and nods. "Me too. I used to be a lot more of an idealist. I just keep hoping to get everyone else home before the point of not being able to go home again, or ending up like the people who've died out here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Be sure and do that. Spider and Layla used to hack things a lot to get us set up more comfortably. Once he disappeared, its been kind of hit and miss depending on the world." she answers, descending towards the churchyard. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah nods. "I'm sorry. That had to be rough, even if your mom did a great job." she answers the first. "And I'm pretty sure there's a number of them. I've met a few other kids who had Natasha as their mother." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, on my homeworld, I heard a lot about him from my Dad... but he wasn't around on Earth. I don't know if the Russians never found him, if he really died there, or if the sentinels got him like most of the others. The one who traveled with us for a while was different too. In his world, he got frozen and revived, and my dad died." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
