I2DT: In the cold, dark night

Narrator wrote:The continued beating finally took its toll on Ursus and he slumped to the ground, gasping for breath with his fur smoking in places.

"Booyah! Take that Smokey!" Bruce celebrated, beating his chest once with one fist. He absently licked the blood from his teeth as he looked for a new opponent. He decided to check on Carlos, being that there seemed to be fire in that direction.

"Spoken like a woman who doesn't understand the stakes involved," she said moving away from Vivienne with Tereza.

"Perhaps, but I know for sure she knows and she chose us. Release her."

by **Miriam Bell** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 1:47 am

"I know that's Tereza. Trinity's been trying to find her. All I'm seeing right now is a bunch of loonies chasing her and her sister out of the house. Good job, Samantha."

Vivienne Chinnoir wrote:"Perhaps, but I know for sure she knows and she chose us. Release her."

"She has no idea. That's why her big sister is here to look out for her," the woman said, "She'll be a danger as long as she's here, so she's going home."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 2:29 am

"Trinity's in the bloody Brotherhood, and by the looks of things, she just sold Tereza back to the gulag she ran away from!"

by **Miriam Bell** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 2:48 am

"Well thank god that Samantha the Morrigan McManus is here to pass preemptive judgement on everybody. Why do you have to butt into everything and ruin it, Sam?"

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:18 am

"She has no idea. That's why her big sister is here to look out for her," the woman said, "She'll be a danger as long as she's here, so she's going home."

"The only danger from her is what you did to her and she knows it is there."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:18 am

I swear to god, Miriam...

Vivienne Chinnoir wrote:"The only danger from her is what you did to her and she knows it is there."

She actually looked a little sad at that. "Again, said like a woman who doesn't understand the stakes. Are you willing to deal with the consequences?"

by **Miriam Bell** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:36 am

"If your little sister ran away you'd be looking for her too."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:40 am

"You didn't see what this place is like. It makes Muir look like Hogwarts, Miriam."

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:56 am

She actually looked a little sad at that. "Again, said like a woman who doesn't understand the stakes. Are you willing to deal with the consequences?"

"Death, destruction, yes, your iron comrade mentioned before he fled. I will tell you what I told him. Any and all losses at her hands will be on you. You, who allow the taking of the young and innocent to be stripped and reforged into tools for your perverted idea of "the greater good". "For your family, for your country, for your race"...it is all the same tired lies. I will gladly kill her before letting you keep her and sleep soundly knowing she is free of you and your kind."

by **Miriam Bell** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:59 am

"What are you even talking about? And god damnit Will, let me move!"

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 4:03 am

"Then deal with your consequences," she said, leaning forward and whispering something in Tereza's ear. Tereza's eyes went wide. The woman released her and she stumbled forward a step. The woman took to the air and there was a beeping noise. The manacles beeped in response and then hissed and dropped from Tereza's wrists. As soon they did, Tereza's eyes glowed pure white and she launched a wave of ice at Vivienne.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 4:15 am

THAT was enough for Will. Gathering up all his strength....he lept off of Miriam, shifting back into his normal form, sprinting down the hall towards Tereza and company.

Now, considering that the last time we saw Will's trousers, they were in the back of Trinity's car...

...Oh well.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 4:18 am

Vivienne quickly stabbed Cal into the ground and dropped to her knees while she lifted her right hand towards the sky calling a thick wall of water to form.

"Samantha, I do not know where you are, but Tereza needs you, now!"

by **Miriam Bell** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 4:24 am

Miriam is more than a little surprised when her clothes suddenly decide they've had enough. Facing the possibility of dealing with Sam's bullshit and losing her dignity by doing it naked is most certainly too much for her and she bolts back towards the stairs and the bedroom.

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 5:08 pm

Where their powers interacted, Vivienne's water wall began to crystallize as the wave of ice tried to force it's way through.

The back windows of the house started to fog over as the ambient air temperature at the back of the house dropped.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Nov 14, 2015 9:16 pm

"Damn it..." she mutters, dashing after Will out into the backyard.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 2:27 am

She fed water towards the cold side, building the wall thicker.

"Tereza! It is Vivienne, if you can not stop yourself and if Samantha is unable to stop you, then, I am sorry, but I will do what I must. Can you hear me?"

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 2:31 am

Tereza growled and threw her arms forward. The ice wall sprouted arms as well, trying to grab through wall for Vivienne. She didn't seem to notice that Will or Sam had come out the back door yet.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 2:51 am

"This... this is what they did to her," Sam says, frowning.

She reaches out with her mind, trying to feel for the gag and collar she put on the construct in Tereza's mind.

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 3:30 am

The gag and collar seem to be in place and it certainly feels like that is holding her back a bit.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 3:31 am

Will stood at the ready--he didn't want to take Tereza down while Sam was working, but you didn't need to be a teep to tell that he was itching to punch SOMEONE.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 3:34 am

Sam tries to add a leash to the collar, and then pull back sharply.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 4:03 am

"Her sister spoke to her just before."

Vivienne jumped back from the grasping arms, causing the water portion of the wall to move back with her, leaving a free standing wall of ice. It was a stalemate, but she would hold Tereza's attention as long as she could.

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 4:06 am

The leash yanked and Tereza's control of her power faltered for a moment before she raked her hand across. Shards of ice ripped free of the wall and flung themselves towards the building, but not with any particularly good aim.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 4:08 am

Will dodged the shard as well as he could, and lept to try to tackle Tereza to the ground.

Non-lethally. I mean, she might hit her head on the ground if he was successful, but you know.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 4:18 am

"If you're going to try to get through to her, now's the time Viv..."

She tries to keep a firm mental grip on the leash, reeling it in.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:04 am

Nude Will was definitely a much more efficient distraction.

"Tereza, focus. Please, you are safe. We came for you." Vivienne dropped her water wall and moved around the ice towards Tereza, leaving Cal behind.

"I came for you. Вернись ко мне, моя любовь, ты мне нужен, чтобы держать меня человеком."

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:15 am

Tereza was struggling against Will, trying to get him off her before Sam's leash pulling and Vivienne's Russian broke through her mind. She looked confused for a long moment, but she stopped struggling. She sagged noticeably and smiled weakly, "Вы должны работать на вашем акцентом." Sam felt her mind slip into unconsciousness as her eyes closed.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:16 am

"I hope that means 'I'm not going to attack you anymore' in communist," Will commented.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:22 am

Vivienne smiled and knelt beside Tereza and Will as she returned to "normal". "Close, we are safe for now. She said my accent needed work."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:23 am

"She's out cold, guys." She says, slumping as she pulls back on her efforts.

"We've got to get her back to campus so Professor Rede can check her out."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:23 am

Will nodded. "Any idea how long she'd been here for?" he said, standing up.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:27 am

"They grabbed her just after she got off work at the Rose and Crown."

"...how long were you and Miriam here for?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 5:28 am

"A day or so. Not much longer than that."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 6:04 am

"...you think she'll come with us, or is she just going to yell at us again?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 6:05 am

"Is that particularly our concern right now?

I could get her to come, one way or the other."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 6:08 am

"I guess she'll leave the bloody terrorist house when she's ready," she sighs.
