Raisa heads back to the Academy with the others, interested in the contition of Nova and Carl, and looking forward to a bath. The Bath house will be the first place she heads to, where she'll strip out of the filthy clothes - throwing them in the garbage - and shower before trying to relax in a bath until supper.

We will take the van, it has a more powerful version of the hand held scanner, which woud help us greatly. Leave the security officers for now but watch them if you can but don't give them any reason to suspect something is up, we could even use them to help spread some dis-information. If they start to suspect something grab them before they can get away.

Just remember Anna that he was helping deliver a biological weapon into hostile hands. Personally I think he deserves everything he is getting.

At the question, Kevin starts to become blemish. He feels his strength goes away. His pulse start to go faster. To be on the edge of dead, at the emrcy of someone else make him completly forget what happen for a moment. Now that the action is behind, Kevin feels the remorse he had before he entered that apartment. He turns to Wen, waiting for his answer.

"I hear nothing. They only leave in afternoon. I call Thunder and he contact when hear something," Master Wen says calmly. "Also call Red Star. He sending Sai Tang to control Nova power. They in good hands. China has very good doctors. They well cared for," he says with certainty.
You make it up to the academy without incident, the townsfolk you do see saying things in thankful voices that none of you understand. Once at the academy, Li, her clothing stained with blood and dirt, walks quietly towards the girls bath house with Dara and Raisa. Master Wen heads without further instruction into the main house. Michael seems unsure where to go, his wolf form showing some confusion.
"There are clothes for you in the sixth room on the right of the bunkhouse, Michael," Xi says. Michael dashes off, bursting into a full run, charging straight through the girls as he goes to the bunkhouse.
"We should clean up as well," Xi says, but pulls X12 aside before the head off for a private word.
X12
Once everyone is out of ear shot, Xi's calm expression fades and he grabs X12 painfully by the arm. "It was him, wasn't it?" he says with some panic in his voice. "Tell me he doesn't know!"
Raisa
The three of you enter the bath house and you are suddenly reminded, by the lack of shower facilities, that there are no showers! Of course the huge circular tubs are, as usual, filled with steaming water. Dara takes about three seconds to strip down and plunge into one of the tubs.
Oh god, I needed this, Dara broadcasts, submerged up to her eyes in the tub, blowing bubbles in the water through her mouth.
Li goes to a cabinet and gets some combs and a glass bottle of some blue liquid. "I can help you with your hair, Raisa. I don't think you'll get all that out on your own," she says helpfully, setting the bottle and combs down beside one of the large, cicular tubs. She goes and disrobes in a stall, coming out in a bath robe and making her way to the tubs. She folds her robe and gingerly steps into the water. "Hot, hot hot," she says, hissing as she inches her way to sit in the tub.
Not that that is what draws your attention. Most of her upper body, especially the sides and back, are covered in garish scars that match frighteningly the bruises Raisa has on her torso. They appear to be fairly recent. There is also some scarring on her arms, and a limited amount on her legs. On her forarms, there are strange looking ridges of skin, with the same on the back of her legs. There are three long skin ridges running down her back as well.
Holy cow! What happened to you! Dara blurts out mentally. Li suddenly drops into the water up to her neck, looking very self conscious.

"Yeah," Pavo says, still seeming somewhat uncomfortable. "I guess he did."
"I'll find a driver for you since you want to go in your van then..." Pavo starts before he's suddenly interrupted by a *ahem* large breasted young woman with short black hair in an SAP uniform who rushes up with an excited squeal.
"Oh meu deus! Eu não posso acreditar que é você! É-me! Vida! Poupou-me de caindo a ponte no ano passado! O Demônio de Velocidade finalmente voltou para casa, huh?"
OOC: Translated for Vince and Johan: Oh my god! I can't believe it's you! It's me! Vida! You saved me from falling off the bridge last year! The Speed Demon finally came back home, huh?
Pavo looks disapprovingly at the girl. "Cortez de senhorita, por favor contem se."
OOC: Translation: Miss Cortez, please restrain yourself.
"Actually, sir, Miss Cortez would be an ideal driver. I can easily reschedule her duties to the driver pool, and her parents work at the research lab," Ms. Price says.
"Ah, very good then," Pavo says. "Cortez, você guiarão ÉPICO a nossa facilidade principal de pesquisa imediatamente."
OOC: Translation: Cortez, you will drive EPIC to our research facility imediately.
"And please, Miss Cortez, use your english," Ms. Price says.
"Ok!" Cortez says excitedly. "English is not good for me, but I can speak it," she says with a thick accent.

"Wow, that is pretty amazing," Sanjay says, staring at it out of interest now instead of just trying to keep his eyes busy. "So is that the stuff the Anaconda virus is being stored in?"
Calinon said:
If one were looking close, one might detect a hint of red in Sanjay's metalic cheeks. "No, I'm sorry, I'm not usually one to get tongue-tied. Besides, it might be a bit distracting," he says with a grin, "but, I wouldn't want you to turn it off, anyway." The grin disappears. "If anyone does, I understand how important this is. And don't worry about the fingers. But I do have to obey the laws of thermodynamics with my powers, so I'll have to turn it into something, unless you want it to explode. I don't know what its fundimental components are, so I'd rather not just break it down. Oxygen should be harmless, right?"
He concentrates on the liquid, attempting to make it disappear. He can't help but think with a bit of a smirk, "The liquid, not the clothes..."

"Wow Vida! You have no idea how good it is to be home again. Seeing you reminds me how much I miss it here. How have you been? Keeping your feet on the ground I hope." Vince makes sure to keep looking directly towards her eyes but with his all around vision drinks in the amazing curves he was fortunate enough to catch that day.

"Xi... he's always known, and you know that. Even though he didn't say he knew directly, you know and I know that he knows where we are at all times," X12 says. "His words controlled my body, but not my mind... which means there's still a way to find a means to resist him." He shakes his arm out of Xi grip.
"There's a war coming. Father is planning something... horrible... and soon. The question, as far as I'm concerned, is will we be ready to choose which side we're on when it happens, or will we still answer to his whim. I need to find a way to stop him from controlling us... and then a way to kill him."

"Uhh, Michelle, can I make a suggestion? If the drive is gonna take six hours, that's a lot of time for us not to be there. Do you think we should take them up on the flight offer for at least some of us? Maybe just the heavy hitters? Like maybe me Cosmo, and Neutron? I imagine that even if we couldn't stop 'em we could at least delay them for security forces."

Kevins enetr the bathhouse. Slowly, without energy, he put off his cloths and stare at his image in the mirror for a long moment. He sees someone wounded, broken. The arrogant and selfish boy he knew seems gone... for the moment. He walks to the bath and starts to clean himself.
What happen today? Nova's death. Jackal's death. Prophet stole a part of me, but what? What happened to me? What will come to me now? Nothing bright for sure...
