Eris didn't notice his uncomfortableness at all, she didn't want to. she settled herself down leaning into the crook of his arm, making herself comfortable. She was a little hurt that he hadn't come to save her from the hospital, but at least he had helped when he had found her, that was a lot more then most people would have done, a lot more.

"I...I don't think they actually would have done it if my dad hadn't told them to she said softly. I heard him tell them to beat it out of me." she says softly, looking like she might start to cry. Wipping her fore-arm across her face she gives hhim a brave sort of smile, "Do you think that this Luka lady will let me go to this school, If she didn't know about me I mean? Where is the school at, I mean, dad could just say you guys kidnapped me if he ever finds out where I am, and then he'll take me back there, to that place, so I hope its awfully far away."

At Patriots whisper, Eris grins and snuggles up even closer to his side. "And who's this mutant that you are actually here for? Is it another girl, or a boy?"

"Your dad eh? Sorry to say that such things don't surprise me animore. Crap. Sure she's going to let you stay there. First of all its not like there is aniwhere else she could sent you and second the place was created for people like you. And yeah its a goob bit away. And Luka will have a word to say if someone tries to snatch away one of her students. I'm here for a boy who..."
So far Patriot was so relaxed that it almost felt like he is some kind of undead but then his cellphone rings and Eris feels him growing tense and he jumps up.
"....who is in deep trouble."
His voice grows a bit deeper, it appears he does that instead of getting louder. He grasps his coat.
"We have to move now, he's in trouble."

"Uh, okay" Eris says, feeling somewhat re-assured that this Luka woman wont just send her back to her father. She plays with her toe-ring as Patriot takes the Cell-call, looking at him quizically when she feels hims tense up.

At, Patriots rushing, she rolls forward in a graceful display of tumbling ending up next to the shoes which she hurriedly tied, they were mens shoes, so they were definitely too big for the teen girl, but surprisingly, not way too big, they wouldn't fly off if she had to run. Standing, she takes the coat from the bed and slips it over her shoulders. "Where are we going?" she asks feeling his excitement. Knowing that there is danger out there in the dark, she allows her eyes to shift to see easily through the dark.

If you agree somone will be sent to get you next month, it's not that easy to catch a flight to Costa Rica without getting caught by a pre-flight delta sniffer after all.

Katie folded up her legs against her chest, staring at the screen and instinctively knowing that this would be the most important decision she would ever make in her life. Truth was right...she couldn't hide forever - and not using her powers, shutting them away was too hard. It was hard enough hiding the magnetism, she couldn't imagine not communicating with computers for the rest of her life.

But why would they want her? She was no super power mutant - not like the Alpha's that raged across the world before or even the powerful ones that make the news constantly. In fact, flexing her fingers, she didn't have any kind of offensive power that she could see...and they could see even less from their vantage point.

Ok. I will come.

But she couldn't stop the feeling of dread curling in her belly.

Michael Curtis Lee had made the long way from Alabama from to New York City after the crap had realy hit the fan. The guys who had suffered from his mutant powers then he touched them had talked and the police had come to take him away. He was on the run ever since, its been over two month till he had seen his home. He is sitting in a small dinner now and spends his last money on a hot meal. Only three other realy tired looking persons are in the restaurant. There is a sudden whining sound from the outside that grows in intensity and suddenly you can see a bright light appearing in the window beside you. A two meters tall robotic figure in black with blue and red marking lands on the burining thrusters in its feet. An MC Section Armagedon suit, the best weaponry armor the country has available. It was designed by a mutant working for delta prime and is intended to give human soldiers the power to take on a mutant. With howling sirens and screaching tires three police cars hold in front of the dinner and the men jump out to support the armored soldier, weapons already drawn.

"Excellent, you won't regret it. I will leave you an e-mail adress for to send any more questions. Otherwise i will not contact you again before you are here.
And try to keep your head low for the time being.

Good luck"
Nothing more appears and Katie is alone with her thoughts for a while since the others won't be back for at least an hour.

Knowing that he probably couldn't get close enough to do some real damage to the suit, considering the firepower and range it has, there might be an alternative way out. If that thing's here then the police will be here shortly to seal the place up. That means the alley is prbably out. So there's only one way to go, and that's down into the sewers.

But could his powers work quickly enough to give him access?

There had to besomething else he was missing.

Excusing himself, he goes into the bathroom. Once there he takes off his gloves, utters a silent prayer to God, kneels down and starts using his power of corrosion to try to make it to the sewers before that thing out there enters the diner.

Still he couldn' but to think what would happen to him if he got caught. Once a mutant was caught and sent off, they never came back.

Michael nearly makes it to the bathroom but then the Armagedonsuit opens fire with its shouldermounted minigun and cuts of his way with a hail of bullets. A young man in a suit who sat close to the bathroom is caught in the fire and drops to the ground.

22:55
Patriot hotwires a car in front of the hotel with pracitesed easy pulls over his mask and races of once Eris is inside. He speaks to through the phone while driving.
"Truth, i need some directions and it wouldn't hurt if you can tell me what they've sent either."

23:06
Eris sees a small dinner with three policecars and a firing armored trooper in front of it then Patriot opens his window.
"Can your drive kid? Nevermind just hold the wheel and keep your foot on the gas." He begins to climb out of the window and and launches another lance of fire from his hand towards to the police.

23:07
The fire in the dinner dies down as the Armagedonsuit turns towards the exploding policecar to its right. Micheal sees the thing is hit by a burst of fire and the fueltank explodes a moment later. Both the car and the policemen closest to it vanish in the explosion.

Thinks: Oh boy This place has become a warzone. I wish it didn't have to be that way. What's going on out there?

As the Armageddon suit is distracted, I'll take the chance to grapple with it hoping to take out what is it's weapons or power source, whichever is closer, assuming that he can tell what the weapons or power supply looks like, using corrosion.

Thinks: This is probably a foolish thing to do, but I doubt I can outrun it. This may be my only chance to get out of here.

Eris grins at John's antics with the car, he was awfully cool for someone her dad's age, no one else she knew could have done it. She watches as they approach the cops with some trepidation, it wasn't the sanest of things for her to be doing, actually bringing herself to the attention of the cops.

Her face a little white, her hands gripped tightly around the steering wheel. "No, I was still only 15 when they put me in the hospital." She had her foot poised over the gas for when Patriot told her to give it gas. "What the hell is that thing?" she asked looking at the battle-suit, she just couldn't seem to look away as it fired into the dinner.
