Powers Trap RP

[Evee]

Lynx nodded, "I don't know how but Knightz's soul has separated from her body. Some other soul resides inside her." She looked to Thera, "Did anything happen to Knightz?"

[Evee]

Lynx paused, "I guess maybe there's someone out there with powers of the soul. There are very few ways to do something like that."

[Evee]

Lynx smiled at Thera, "I wouldn't be so quick to judge. There're some people who would say the same about you."

[Evee]

Lynx closed her mouth and eyes, "I guess it's time to plan now."

Malik nodded, "Matt."

Lynx opened her eyes and smiled wildly, "Just one thing to say now. They'll regret ever touching my son. "

[Evee]

Lynx smiled, stepping up to the door labeled "storage" and stepped through. Inside there was the stock of foods anyone would expect. Then she touched something at the back. The wall slid in and they found themselves in a large underground hangar.

[Evee]

Lynx smiled, "Lead the way."

[Evee]

"You flew here from where you were taken. Well, just return to where you were."

[Evee]

Lynx waited, her eyes on Thera.

[Poet in the Dark]

Mira froze, "What happened to Matt?"

[Ji Mei]

Aven had followed them into the room and now stood to the side, hiding in the shadows. She was speechless. The world was going so fast that her mind refused to comprehend what was laying out before her.

[Evee]

Moss stepped beside her, "You okay?"

[Ji Mei]

Aven glanced up and shrugged half-heartedly.

[Poet in the Dark]

"What happened to Matt?" Mira repeated, remembering the little boy who was so mesmerized by her tail and ears.

[Evee]

Malik intervened in the conversation then, "Knightz took him. Or at least Knightz's body did."

[Poet in the Dark]

Her eyes narrowed and her ears laid back in anger. "I swear, whoever is controlling Knightz's body is going to get a beating."

[Evee]

Malik smiled, raising a gun from his jacket, "Not if I get there first."

[Poet in the Dark]

"I'll hold 'em down. You shoot." Mira growled, her tail flicking angrily and her slit pupils narrowing even more.

[Evee]

Malik lips curled, "I like your style."

In the background Lynx watched them. Laurel, who had expected Lynx to protest watched her frown, but remain silent. Lynx cared for her son, she would do anything to retrieve him, and even she knew that there were times she had to let loose on her husband's actions. In Malik's former world, the world where he ruled as the head of a mafia organization, no one in the family who had kidnapped his son should be allowed to live, and so Lynx remained silent.

[Poet in the Dark]

She nodded, "He was only a child. An innocent. They have no right." Her words were cold, and her lips pulled back in an angry snarl, her fangs exposed.

[Poet in the Dark]

Mira shifted onto all fours, looking very catlike. She went over to the couch and sat down, shifting back and looking more like a human again.

[Ji Mei]

Aven watched them discussing. She couldn't help feel useless, thinking that it was all her fault that Knightz came back and then got stuck in that blackness. What isthat black substance anyways? If only we knew, then we could have some start as to figure out what to do for Knightz, she thought.

[Evee]

Moss raised an eyebrow to the whole lot of them, "You're all fools."

Malik started and gave a glared to Moss. Moss glared back, "Your not some mafia major league anymore, Malik. The organization that you're going after is dangerous and powerful. You can't go darting in there knowing nothing, not even where Matt is. Who knows what damage you'll do. You could end up killing Knightz body, or making it so her spirit can't return to her body. You could even end up getting Matty killed." He said the last few of his world with a quiet voice.

His eyes went to Lynx, "I expected this from him but not from you. What exactly are you plotting?"

Lynx smiled, "I just want to get my son back, whatever way necessary."

[Ji Mei]

"Maybe we should find out what that black substance is," Aven said quietly, not glancing up at them.

[Evee]

Moss glared at her, "Matt doesn't deserve to be accidentally killed by a bunch of bumbling fools." He growled.

Moss glanced back at Aven as she spoke, "Black substance? Where did you find this stuff?"

[Ji Mei]

Aven looked up. "Right before Thera took me, Knightz stepped into a black substance, almost like quick sand. And then, after a little bit, her ghost was beside me and yet I saw her in the black still."

[Evee]

Moss frowned, "You may have gotten out on your own but it's a whole different story getting into there again, finding someone and getting out alive. All while trying to find whoever is possessive Knightz. You can't charge in. You need a plan."

[Evee]

Moss's eyes widened when he heard what Aven said and he went pale, "So it's him." he murmured.

[Ji Mei]

Aven looked at his expression. "Who?"

[Evee]

Moss returned to his usual cynical expression, "Raamya Jett, God's Thunder. He's the spirit manipulator your searching for." He paused, "He's the only person with the power and the skill to make an Animus Rapio, a soul stealer. That was his talent. This only reinforces what I think. Against him we need a plan."

[Ji Mei]

"A soul stealer?" Aven shivered. "How will we ever defeat someone who can steal souls?"

[Evee]

Moss nodded, "Exactly my point. We need a plan."

[Ji Mei]

Aven blinked, her heart sinking. "What do you mean?" she asked softly.

[Evee]

Moss's eyes turned to Thera and he said quietly, "Then what do you propose?"

[Poet in the Dark]

Mira cocked her head, "I agree with Moss. As angry as we are, we need a plan, or we won't do Matt any good."

[Evee]

Quite suddenly Laurel spoke, "They have inner water tunnels. They're rarely used and they go everywhere. We could use them."

Lynx looked at Laurel, an eyebrow raised. Laurel shrugged, "I was bored, Meri, Josane, and Ashini are all gone."

[Poet in the Dark]

Mira's tail twitched, then swished across the floor. "That might work."

[Evee]

Laurel shrugged again, "But we'd need to know where Matt is, and where Raamya Jett if we want to save Knightz also."

[Poet in the Dark]

She nodded, "But it's a good idea."

[Evee]

Laurel smiled, "Then I'm going to be getting to trying to find out that info."

The air around Laurel rippled and then Laurels eyes rolled upwards. She collapsed onto the couch.

[Poet in the Dark]

"Laurel?!" Mira cried, jumping up.

[Evee]

Lynx touched Mira's shoulder, "She's fine. . . .She's also a spirit manipulator like Raamya."

[Poet in the Dark]

She relaxed and nodded, sitting down again. "Okay."

[Evee]

Lynx started to pace a little around the room, "She wont be back for a while. We can still do a little planning ourselves."

She turned to Mira, "You were in there the longest. What can you tell us about that place?"

[Poet in the Dark]

Mira thought for a few minutes, "It's a plain building. All the doors have locks, so we'll need to be able to break or pick them. Guards patrol every hall, and there are usually one or two in each room."

[Evee]

Lynx nodded, listening. "What about the people?"

[Poet in the Dark]

"You can try," Mira said, ears flattening. "They're brutal. The guards are trained to handle any sort of... difference. That includes fire-breathing. All of them have been trained over a span of four years, and most of them have had genetic enhancements to help with reflexes, hearing, sight, smell."

[Ji Mei]

Aven shuddered, thinking of the one person she encountered. That awful woman. She hugged herself and hoped that she'll never see her again.

[Evee]

Lynx nodded, "Do either of you have an idea where someone like Raamya Jett might be stationed?"

[Poet in the Dark]

Mira frowned, "The middle of the building."

[Evee]

Lynx nodded towards Mira, "That's where we'll hit trouble. Those with powers of the spirit are very sensitive. What we'd need to do last is find where Knightz is, not to mention where her soul is wandering around."
