"They probably shouldn't be involved, in fact, none of us should be involved in this big ick." Mercedes traced a faint pattern on the desk. Gwen and Matt...dating? Hmm I didn't know that. They look cute. "But we all are anyway. I think I'd rather have us be together doing good form, then all over the place. It's like..." her dark eyes clouded for a moment before she bounced up with a flash of insight. "Like cheerleading!"

At their looks of bewilderment, Mercedes continued to explain, "well, you know, with cheerleading, there are different cheerleaders, some more talented than others, some have more experience, some are too big to be on the top of the triangle and some are too small to be on the bottom. What I'm saying is that we need to all be like cheerleaders. You each of your best at something, right? So, like, I wouldn't put someone box around beasties who is better at, I dunno, chucking fire extinguishers." She grinned at Alex.

"Just like I wouldn't put me, who barely weighs 100lbs, on the bottom supporting a 120 cheerleader on top. But when all the cheerleaders work together, we get perfect form, what you see on the court, and go totally to state championships. We need to work like a cheerleading team. Support, positions, and practice."

"Do cheerleaders really way that much?" Matt whispers to Gwen curiously trying to extract his hand from hers, but giving up in the middle of the attempt with a slight shrug.

Maybe shes just scared and I'm reading too much into it. Yea, thats it, she is just holding my hand as a friend for comfort. I can deal with that.

"Wheres the Watcher? Surely he has enough info by now. I mean shouldn't he know about all of it already?"

 

[Corlon]

" "Like cheerleading!"

At their looks of bewilderment, Mercedes continued to explain, "well, you know [etc.]

great analogy, fighting demons is like cheerleading

"If that's the way you want to think about it Mercedes, fine by me "

ooc: GOOOOOOOOOOOO DEMON HUNTERS!!!!

 

[Jarval]

"I can't not be involved. Not if you and Mercedes are going out risking your lives."

And spending too much time alone in the dark together. Wow! That was a bit of a meow moment...

"As for the weight thing, it all depends on how much they want to blend in with stick insects." she replies quitely to Matt. Sensing his discomfort, and slight attempt to get his hand free, she lets go.

There are times when I really don't know what to make of you, Matthew Storm. Telepathy would really come in handy. Hmm, maybe that's even possible...


OOC: Fun little triangle we've got going on here Now, which one of us is going to cast the love spell that goes horribly wrong?

 

[Timothy]

OOC: I just suppose any of my other questions get answered, and I'll walk to the classroom.

IC: Opening the door to his classroom, he immediatly gets everyones attention.

"Well kids, I've got the information, but it sure isn't good news.
The man we just rescued is the Watcher of the current slayer
If they get that man, they can initiate a ritual that prevents the powers of the slayer form flowing over into the next slayer once she's dead."

gary pauses a moment an looks at Mercedes

"Along with the dead body of the Slayer's watcher there are a lot of other strange infgredients needed for this ritual, who have all been acquired, except for the eyes of a blind man who was bitten by the vampire, and offcourse the dead body of the man we just saved."

"I suggest we do the following: Some of us will try to found out who wants to have this ritual, some of us will protect the elder watcher in the hospital, and some of us will try to find a blind man bitten by a vampire. Who thinks she can handle what? I know it looks difficult, but if we put our brain to it, we can get most of it done."

 

[Jarval]

"A blind man bitten by a vampire? If he reported it to the police, he shouldn't be hard to find. You up for a spot of hacking, Alex? I know for a fact that our local police network isn't as secure as it could be."

 

[Timothy]

"Hmmm, well yes, you could check medical or police records, a blind man that was attcked in soe way, or was analized with blood loss and two small wounds in the neck can be found.

Although, OFFICIALLY I haven't heard you mentioning hacking."

 

[KitanaVorr]

Mercedes looked thoughtful. "Well we know where the watcher is, so I'm going to go there and protect him. We know for sure that's who they need, so when they come and get him...we either follow them back to the lair, or get the major info out of them...somehow."

Her eyebrows rose. "Is this all that Good has to fight against Evil? I don't know how Good has lasted this long."

 

[Kalanyr]

"No, last time I checked I wasn't a queen in disguise. By we I meant us, since we do seem to be stuck in this together. And why on earth would I go? I've spent a lot of time studying strange events and now I get a chance to investigate more closely and you expect me to go? I can hack fairly well, and I know a fair bit of arcane lore, I guess I could try and track down who wants to do this, since we already have a volunteer to find the blind man. If this is a group they'd have to have some way to get members so there must be a way to track them down. Like looking in the local paper for a want ad: Wanted: Cultists to destroy the world as we know it. "

 

[Shalimar]

"I'm not up for any hacking Gwen, I'll go with Mercedes. Ahh, William can youu help Mr. Gray with his research on who would know about the ritual and seek to use it, and maybe Tom too? I know Alex and Gwen should be able to do that computer Voodoo that they do so well. I don' think anyone should be alone now. Is that ok with everyone?" Matt asks taking charge of the situation before te watcher could, and probably better too, I mean he doesn't know any of us at all or what we can do.

He looks at Gwen trying to see if she's ok with it. "We should all meet somewhere in a few hours, to compare notes, well except for Mercedes and I who will call in from there. Does anyone have a cellphone?"
