"Of course they have a motive. Like many organizations they seek power. Our power. They take us and push us to our limits, to see how best that can use us." | |||

"Hmmm..." Nina's voice could be heard once again.
She tilted her head for a moment, looking at Mr. Nathaniel. She sighed, her body relaxing by a fraction. "Then...they won't kill him...nor can they do much harm to Eddie yet..." She said. "If he has something that they want..." She paused and glanced around at everyone. "We have time to find him before they hurt him...right?" It was as though Nina hadn't heard the talk of power, and the possibility of there being more powerful people out there. It was something that was beyond her head for the moment and not something she was too concerned with. She knew, that if these powers were such an issue, she and Eddie would have plenty of time to sort that out once she got him back safely. "But what I don't understand is..." Her temper suddenly was rising and she rose to her feet. "Is how this fucking school let total strangers just take him away!" She slammed her fist into the desk. "Even if they had enough documentation...they can't...they can't just let people walk out with him! Wouldn't they need a lawyer with them or something? If they were there, claiming to be family...how can they snatch him up from a school?!" |

Cally sat back in her plush, leather desk chair after about an hour's worth of tedious paperwork in her office. Tilting and turning her head, audible cracking sounds could be heard from her popping her neck.
She placed her hand in her coat pocket, retrieving her cellphone. She held down the 1 key for her voicemail's speed-dial code. She held the phone to her ear and listened for the ring. (Last edited by Rogue on 12-15-07 07:23 PM) |

As she picked up her phone, one of her co-workers peeked his head through her door.
"Boss wants to see you, says whenever you're ready." "Nina, it your friend's lifespan completely depends on what they want. If they need him to do something, he has hope. They may want to study him, and the methods they use for that are... varied. Or it may just be a run of the mill bag and tag, although I doubt they'd put this much effort into that. As for the school. As I said, they are a company. They have a large range of influence." |

Cally looked up, just as the automated message began talking.
Hearing what her coworker said, she hung up the phone, sighed inwardly to herself, rose from her desk and headed down the fluorescent-lit hallway, arriving at a set of wooden double doors. She cautiously knocked. |

Alyssa sighed.
((sorry my compy died lol)) She looked at Koan. "So let me get this straight. We are going after Eddie because he's got something that a company wants. They're motive is to exploit us. So they would exploit people like us through him." Alyssa's mind faded. "Where's something I can touch. Something I can find these people with." |

Nina slouched, defeated. Nathaniel was right. Since they did not have much information, it was a 50/50 chance that Eddie would be kept safe for the time being.
However, when Alyssa spoke up, Nina's attention diverted toward her. "Excellent idea!" she exclaimed. "But..." She glanced around the classroom. "Mr. Nathaniel, could you maybe get Miss Isiadore into the principal's office? If they were posing as family, they must have had to meet in the office...correct?" |

"Or you could use my keys..."
Koan lifted his large key-ring, covered completely in keys. He grasped the one which read "P.O." and held it towards the group. Being a janitor had it's perks. |

Alyssa looked at Koan. "What do you mean your keys. Were they in the office at the time?" | |||

Koan sighed at the blonde moment he just witnessed.
"To get into the office..." A smile spread across Koan's lips. |

"No, I think he wants to get into the office. But there are probably so many memories cluttered in that place that we wouldn't learn anything. Even if we did, what could we find? What some of their operatives look like?"
A voice from inside the office called out, "Yes, come in." Cally entered to see a man climbing out of a tanning bed wearing a pair of trunks. He flipped up his sunglasses. "Ah, Miss Roxton, a pleasure that you could make it so quickly." The man was thin, but his muscles showed. He had medium length blonde hair and bright blue eyes. His skin, while not freakishly pale, was much lighter than one would expect of one who had just emerged from a tanning bed. "Please, sit down, I want to talk to you." He climbed down and grabbed a collared shirt from a hook on the wall and began to put it on. |

Cally pulled out one of the chairs available in the office. Easing herself into it and crossing her legs in front of her, she prepared for the worst while maintaining her frozen demeanor. (Last edited by Rogue on 12-18-07 05:58 AM) |

He buttoned the shirt and began to put on his tie and approach the desk in the corner of the room.
"Now, Callisto, you've been working with us on and off for," he flipped open a folder on the desk and skimmed the information, "on and off for about ten years. Your work is great, but you often aren't on hand. Now, I've been authorized to offer you a permanent position with the Company. Interested?" |

She shifted in her seat for a moment. It was inevitable that this offer would come, but she never knew what she would say when the moment might arrive.
"That's very generous, sir, but I'm not sure if I deserve that just yet." She shifted a little again. "Perhaps if I had time to mull your offer over?" (Last edited by Rogue on 12-20-07 07:22 PM) |

"Of course. You would be offered full pension, health insurance, paid vacations, and most important: job security.
He sat down in the desk chair. "Of course you could stay on as an occasional employee, if you wish." |

She remained silent for a minute, staring at the floor.
'This was what Lolo* wanted,' she told herself. ((OOC: "Lolo" is Tagalog for "grandfather")) (Last edited by Rogue on 12-18-07 06:30 AM) |

"Well, you have as much time as you need to make your decision, and even if you turn us down, there is always an opening for you with the Company." | |||

"Thank you, Mr. Shermann, I shall put some serious thought into your offer."
Cally then stood and turned toward the door, releasing the breath she didn't realize she'd been holding. (Last edited by Rogue on 12-18-07 01:55 PM) |

Eddie awoke with a gasp, drenched in a cold sweat. He sat up as quickly as he could, eying up his surroundings. The cold linoleum floor and concrete walls were pure white, and the bars of his cell jumped into his vision.
He was imprisoned. For a moment, only fear filled him. He paced around his cell, trapped in this tiny room. He was wearing a plain white shirt and pants, very much like a doctor's scrubs. After the panic wore off, a deep sadness washed over him. His life was gone. He was now nothing more than a guinea pig to these strange, evil bastards. He sat alone, lost in his thoughts, until he heard voices. Voices. He ran to the bars, trying to peek through, but he could only see so far down the hallway. The voices became clearer, making it able for him to listen in. "Yeah, the girl's name is Marika Ferencz. They just finished testing her psychical limits, so we're dumping her in Standard Holding for now." Eddie acted fast. He felt compelled that he could learn more if he could see the girl's face. His power would be useful in this case, he could tap her memories, maybe find a way out. He knew not why the desire to see her took him so, but it did. Acting fast, he ran over to the mirror on the wall and with a rush of force, ripped it out. He then faced away from the group and held the mirror up, thus making him able to see her face. She was just like him. Young, but in her case, unconscious. She was very pretty and her Russian heritage was obvious. Armed with her face and name, he sat down and focused intently before his eyes went white, and visions flooded his mind. She was born in Russia. Eddie had guessed correctly. She always worked hard in her little town, but the town couldn't fulfill her potential. So she came to America to get an American college education. She did, and then found her way into the circus. Her 'gift' came in handy. Her ability to control gravity. Eddie snapped out of the trance, breathing heavily. He had to get back in, he thought he saw one of his previous captors in the last picture-esque flash of memory. He focused harder than ever before, drifting once more into her mind. One day, after her performance, she was told she had fans waiting for her in the parking lot that knew her parents. She ran outside, eager to greet her family friends. She was taken in, then. They tested her limits with a complicated machine, keeping her conscious only a short period every day. She was injected with a medicine every day that canceled out her power. She hadn't been free in weeks. Eddie had held in as long as he could, but he was knocked out again. This time, however, he felt he had enough information. Now, it was time to plot a way out of here. After getting out of these bars himself, he'd rescue Marika and take her with him. |

Alyssa bit her thumb. She blinked and looked at Koan. "Get me into the office, the kidnappers must have signed something to show that they were visitors to pick Eddie up." |
