Generation Legacy Issue #13 "Genocide" - Part 1

[Hammerhead]

Anika, standing in the doorway with Mark, nods at Tina and looks back at Ryan. "Well, that's kinda what we were wondering. Did you ask Timothy for a favor recently?" She speaks non-accusingly, hoping Ryan had a good reason for the attempted secrecy.

Ryan rolls his eyes. "Well, given how you two don't randomly ask me this question every day, I'm going to assume you already know the answer to that question. So, what's up?"

Cassie gets up and cracks her neck to one side then the other, then heads into the house. "You don't get it do you? You're FOLLOWING.. I"m DOING. I MAKE MY CHOICES, MY DECISIONS..you're just a PUPPET." She sneers. "You're not real, you'll never be real. You're just some wishful thinking on mother's behalf. A weak impotent and distorted image of the truth. ME."

Cassie’s double glances over her shoulder smugly, her face still bloody, “So what are you then? What makes you so much better? What gives you the right to survive and for me to linger on in this prison… face it you had your chance, and you were too weak to handle it. You make decisions?”

She sounds disgusted, “What decisions have you made,” she says casually kicking the modest coffee table over in anger. “Tell me sister, just what have you decided to do?”

"I'll do what I choose to do." Cassie says calmly, with a smug look. "Why should I tell the shadow what is coming? She won't matter in it. In fact, when this all said and done.. no one will know you exist. Because like this whole world..you're just a figment of my imagination." She turns her back and heads to the kitchen. "Like talking to a reflection in the mirror. Mother knows I will do what needs doing. That was never in question, I just wished to know what I really am."

She picks out a bottle and opens it. "After all, it is a human condition to as those eternal questions. Who am I? Why am I here? If you were a real entity, you'd know that."

“You are wrong about one thing sister, I won’t be forgotten… I am you,” the raven-haired twin says.

1 HP awarded for the scene.

Cassie snaps awake, she isn’t sure how long she has been out, but she sees Jun Min slowly rousing herself. She tries to stand, and then collapses, in a cold sweat. Out the window, she can see it is dark outside… and in the reflection she sees herself, but the glint in the eyes and the raven-hair are not her own… the blink of the eyes and she is once again looking at her normal self.

Out the window, she can see it is dark outside… and in the reflection she sees herself, but the glint in the eyes and the raven-hair are not her own… the blink of the eyes and she is once again looking at her normal self.

"Perhaps 'sister'" She whispers to herself as she looks in the window. "But you're not the part that makes the decisions.. or why they are made." she turns to check on Jun Min, disappointed to have once again fail in finding out who she is. And what.

"I'm sorry that you were hurt Jun Min. We wont risk that again. I'll just have to accept that I won't be allowed to learn the truth of who and what I am." Cassie says calmly.

Jun Min finally composes herself, “It’s fine Cassie, I am just glad you survived, the mind is a scary place for the uninitiated. I was scared there a few times… I am not even sure of everything I saw, I am sorry you didn’t learn anything useful… but maybe you learned something else just as important.”

She muses, “I am just not sure what,” she sits down, “I am so tired.”

Ryan rolls his eyes. "Well, given how you two don't randomly ask me this question every day, I'm going to assume you already know the answer to that question. So, what's up?"

Dressed in a relatively tight tank top and jeans, Mark shrugged. "Because we wanted to know what's going on. Maybe we can help and you shouldn't have to sneak around your teammates." Ok, so that was completely tactless. This would go so much better if he was from a magazine interviewing me.

"SARAH started wondering what was going on and freaked out. I guess Paragon is out waxing his tights, so she called us. So...what's up?"

"Sneaking?" Ryan sounds offended. "SARAH didn't think what I asked her was dangerous when she first offered her assistance, I don't really see how the situation has changed in the last hour or so. Tell me Mark, what exactly did you and Star have your little fight about?" I never knew that having things you did on your own time was considered sneaking. I'd have trouble even linking my inquiries to the Legacy team.

"Sneaking?" Ryan sounds offended.

Great. This is why I don't talk to Ryan. "Sorry, bad choice of-"

"SARAH didn't think what I asked her was dangerous when she first offered her assistance, I don't really see how the situation has changed in the last hour or so. Tell me Mark, what exactly did you and Star have your little fight about?"

"I asked her to get me some heroin because I was and I guess I still am a junkie and I couldn't deal with how Yoshi got killed." Mark told Ryan quietly, forgetting Tina was there. "We came to you because we were worried that something might be going on and that you could need help, because we're your friends. Not that I thought up a really smart way to say that instead of saying the first stupid thing that came into my head."

"Nothing signfigant though Jun Min." Cassie says with a bit of regret. "I was made for a purpose, by someone as cruel and focused as Cardinal, but..most likely for more powerful. I fear that there might be another person working behind the scenes." She sits down with a sigh. "Perhaps even another Eternal."
