Alexis smiled slightly at his kiss. The car turned into her street, and slowly parked outside her house. There were a lot of news reporters outside. And she couldn't move, paralyzed with anxiety and fear and the sudden feeling of fever. A man shot outside the second Wrath's car parked. She looked outside the passenger window in time to see her big brother, Zack, yanking the door open and pulling her out quickly. She didn't get a chance to give Wrath a goodbye of any sort, and it made her weep. The door slammed shut, and the reporters began banging on the doors. Some came over to where Wrath's car was. There was a newspaper on the ground nearby. The headlines read,"26 Victims Saved From a Goverment Research Center; 11 returned to families." This news had been going on in the past few days. There were pictures below the headlines of 26 people; Alexis was in the 2nd row of pictures. Other words popped out of the page. Rape, torture, abuse...Different ages and other tragic things that would make even the most immune person to ailment vomit. The news Alexis had feared coming true, had came true. ((corny...))
Megan sighed at his annoyance, thinking it was something she'd done. She put on her jacket and led the way out this time and led the way through town. She didn't notice the newspaper, never taking interest in them. Once in the business district, she pointed down an alley to a rundown looking but oddly attractive bar. "That's it."

Wrath's eyes widened as she was pulled away and sighed, he locked the doors as the news people came as well and then drove slowly away, careful not to hit the people around his car. He shook his head and once off the street he sped off, angry he had't been able to actually say anything to her, he'd send her a letter. Yes, that's what he'd do. I'm glad she didn't say goodbye, because goodbye is forever. Wrath thought to himself, sniffing once more and then starting to drive in the direction of his new home.
Pain nodded his head, smiling over at Megan kindly and then walking to wards it and opening the door.

Alexis sat next to her siblings, Mel-Onay, a 9 year old that survived, and Niccholi, who was roughly her age, if not a year younger. Mel-onay, Mel for short, was curled up in a small protective ball, her blonde curls cleaned and smelling of de-licer. Niccholi's hair smelled the same. On the news, what was found out about them was on everywhere. The only break being the weather. They showed tapes, 2 with Alexis in it, but mostly of others and none of her siblings. They played audio cassettes of everyone, re-igniting the nightmare everyone had escaped recently, excluding herself. Alexis cried, listenign to the banging outside asking for them to say something. She wanted to go out there and say something. Finding nerve, she did. Alexis wrapped herself up and ignored the TV station reports and went to the radio report there. And she said, and was speaking to Wrath if he happened to be listening, "I miss you. See you soon, I hope. Don't listen to anymore of this please." And then she went back inside, where she'd probably be concealed for several weeks.
Megan walked in and looked around. There was a woman laying on the bar looking at the ceiling and holding a paintball gun. "Hi, James." "Hi. You're not 21." "I know." "Syla says 'I hate you.'" "I know." "...What do you want? I'm not in a good mood." James asked, sitting up and looked at them. She looked over Pain and arched an eyebrow, then looked at Megan. "oh...How quaint." "Yeah..." Megan mumbled and looked at Pain for help. James was a grump normally in the mornings.
((night))

He listened to his radio at the time this was going on for Alexis and sighed softly, once she said not to listen anymore he turned the station to heavy metal. Wrath frowned to himself and shook his head, head resting back as he watched the water.
"How nice indeed, now you don't have to be all bitchy to us because we're being quite polite," Pain started, taking a puff and lowing it out slowly and then laughing a bit, "We just have a few questioons." He finished off, looking away and letting his eyes close a bit. "Are you single, are you interested in someone, do you like calm but fun guys that know how to party?"

Alexis went to her room for the rest of the day, and sent Megan a text to tell her she wouldn't be at school for a little while. She laid in bed and stared at the ceiling, hating life at the moment and every aspect that suggested it would be okay. It wouldn't be okay, not for a little while, if that. She constantly eyed her cell, wanting to talk to Wrath, but unsure of if it was too soon or if he wanted to talk or what.
"I know you are. And you'd be grumpy too if you were trying to get your drunk friend from killing your customers all night...Friggin Syla and her-*cut off by inaudible yell from upstairs*-Nevermind. She got what she deserved. (mood swing) Yes. Yes. And I guess, I dunno really. Why?" she answered. Megan grinned at the mood swing.

((Let's cut off Alexis and Wrath for awhile until later. Like after we get Sabre and James together.))
"We just want to know, we're trying to set up a date for one of my good friends because he's to 'preoccupied' with his work. Like he works. All he does is go out and frickin walk around and find things to buy for his damned house. And then he plays video games and goes out and parties..." Pain rambled on, the smoke finally getting to is bloodstream and making him kinda stumbly and in deep thought to himself.

((kk))
Megan held Pain still to keep him balance when he began to stumble around a bit. James arched an eyebrow. "So...You're trying to set me up...with a guy?" she asked. Megan nodded. "Yup." "When?" "...right now..." "...Where?" James asked. Megan looked at Pain again.

He blinked, shaking his head to get his thoughts on track and then stood up straight, smiling at Megan in thanks. "Er... Where is he right now....? Hm. He should be at his house right now, yeah he's at his flat." Pain replied to James, giving a small smile and then looking away from her to try and keep up with everything going on in his head.

Megan wrapped her arms around Pain, keeping warm in the rather chilly bar. James hummed in thought for 2 minutes. "Okay...So go there then or something?" she asked Pain. Megan shut her eyes in slight pain for a moment; her chest area hurt as if something sharp had punctured the skin there.

Pain twitched and looked down at her, wrapping his arms around her body as well and blinking in confusion. "Are you alright?" He asked and then looked over at James once more to answer her. "Yes, we'll take youthere though, it's kind of hard to find." He replied to her, smiling, his eyes still confused because he didn't know what happened to Megan.

"It just felt like I got hit with something here..." she mumbled, pointing to her chest. "Like a prick, only stronger...Weird, huh?" Megan smiled at James. James nodded and walked upstairs to change into what she called 'real' clothes. She'd been wearing a sports bra and shorts when she was on the counter. When she came back, James had on a baggy white t-shirt and a light blue billowy skirt that had holes from being worn so much at the bottom. "Okay. Whenever you two are ready. Oh, and Syla says hi and she's gotten bigger." James said to them, the last bit directed at Megan though. Megan scowled. "I bet she's taking steroids...Or something like that..." she muttered. Megan and Syla were in this little contest to see who would end up with the biggest boobs.

He raised an eyebrow and the last comment Megan had made about steriods but decided to not say anything about it. Her first comment made him think for a few moments though about it and he got a little worried but also said nothing about it. "Hm. Let's get over to Sabre's before he leaves... Nevermind he won't leave...." Pain changed and sighed to himself befor turning and gently grabbing Megan's hand. He walked her out of the bar, James hopefully following behind them.

James followed silently and Megan squeezed his hand. She seemed worried too. "So what's this Sabre guy look like?" she asked.

"Long cyan blue hair. Tall, muscualr in a sense. Pale skin and light eyes..." Pain replied to James as they walked down the alley and then out of it and down the sidewalk. He yawned slightly, taking another puff and keeping his hand with Megan's.

James nodded. "Cool...So he's hot then?" she asked, though it was clear she didn't care. It was a bonus to her. "What's he like, personality wise and all?" Megan thought over the answer, but was going to let Pain answer since he knew Sabre better.
