WCBH summary
DAY 1
The majority of the group meets at starbucks, Gage checks in on how everyones "good deeds" are going, and informs the group that they are getting noticed and someone asked for their help to check into wailing coming from an apartment building. They make plans to meet at the train station later that night to check in to it.
They meet at the train station, a few that had missed the meeting at starbucks show up. and they make thier way to the apartment building. Gage, Misty and Crow sneak(very poorly) in through the window. quickly being discovered and having a gun in their faces.
the rest of the group go in through the main entrance, and break through the guys door, to get inside. The man refuses to tell the group where the screaming is coming from, he has a locked door, and most assume that there must be someone locked inside. Farren used her shadow control to try to scare the man into telling them where the key is, but he was able to control the shadows and attacks her. Mean while River and a few others, hearing the screaming coming from upstairs leave to try to find who is making it.
Believing that the man is going to hurt Farren Tayn picks up the Rifle and hits the man over the head with it. Killing him. Men, assumed to be working for the man they had just killed storm in to the building and start attacking the group. They all run, managing to rescue a little girl who looks to be about 5. Tor got left behind and was killed. They meet back at the train station, and then cram into a car and go to Rivers apt. Misty had nightmares about loosing her family, and Gage made her feel better with a song. They named the young girl Noel, as a temporary name and tried to decide what to do with her, they decided they needed to try to at least find out who her family was, made sure everyone was fed and then fell asleep.
DAY 2
Gage leaves to go back to the apartment building to try to figure out why Noel was there, and possibly track down her family. While there he is taken in to custody by the police.
Ash and Sammy show up at Rivers, about the same time as the police. Tayn trys to keep the police occupied while signalling for Rex and Zen to get Noel out of there. (I can't remember why she didn't want the cops to find her)
Rex hides her in a garbage can outside, and leaves her there so he isn't caught, and Zen turns invisible to watch her.(I think he passes out again though and is caught by the cops)
Sammy accidentally catches the apartment building (Rivers) on fire. Most of the group is taken into custody by the police.
Noel, doesn't stay in the garbage can and takes off on her own. Crow and Rex catch up with her, and a random homeless guy says he recognizes her and leads them to a cemetary where they find Noel/Leona's mother, who seems to be in a bad mood that they found her daughter.
Later that day the group that has been captured by the police are questioned, by a shape shifter(who's name is No-name). Who impersonates people that mean something to them. Their teachers, family or friends. Afterward they are brought to meet a man named Firestein who tells them he is letting them go, and would like them to do a favor for him in exchange for their freedom a "rescue" mission. and they would have 24 hours to decide.
DAY 3
They meet again at starbucks, and try to decide if they will be doing the mission for Firestein. They notice they've been mentioned in the paper, it's a message from Noel/Leona's mom thanking them for helping track down her kid. There is a hidden message saying that there is someone waiting at city hall if the group wanted to talk. half of the group go to city hall, and the other half go to meet Firestein. (I think Char has shown up by this point Dryden's sister)
USA group:
Meet Leona's mom(Janet) at city hall, who is confused that they showed up. she didn't leave the message for them. She brings them back to her place to say good bye to Leona, mostly everyone wanted to make sure she's ok. Janet is concerned about the hidden message, and when Leona doesn't recognize any of them, and the bruises on her face are found to be makeup, Janet insists they are all in danger and have to get away to safety, she gets the group to escort her outside of town to a cave.
Firestein's Mission group:
half of the group go to meet firestein and he gives them special tools, and weapons, and leads them to the subway station. It is hectic and many of the group get seperated. Some following the crowd on to the subway thinking that that's where Firestein had led them. Farren was called away on Family business.
Ash, Aero, Sammy, and Mikki are the only ones who end up going on Firesteins mission. No-name the shape shifter, and a trigger happy cyborg (Dryden) were the only other people who went on the trip.
They were sent to New Zealand to try to find one of Firesteins missing "friends" though most of them had realized by the time they got on the plane that the guy they were looking for likely wasn't a friend of Firesteins at all.
DAY 4
Firesteins NZL group:
spent the day on the plane, and stopped in Hawaii for fuel. Dryden went a little crazy and killed some people
USA group:
(Gage and Misty were seperated from the main group)
(night time)Janet met a friend in the cave named Barnes, hewas Char and Drydens adopted father. Barnes created the technology that both Char and Dryden have. He tried to explain what was going on to the group, that Firestein was a bad guy who was trying to rid the world of inhumans. Janet asked him to get a helicopter ready and led the group further in to the cave, where they were taken to a whole city of inhumans living under ground. She leaves Leona in the cave to be kept safe. The group meet a man who tries to help them learn how to control their abilities and also how to fight since they had started something that wasn't going to go away.
-Dryden informs Firestein where the Inhuman city is. He was able to tell because Char was with them.
Janet, Char, and Barnes, are captured by Firestein.
Over night Firestein attacks the inhuman city having his men set up explosives to cause a cave in.
The inhumans mostly manage to get out of the cave. Weather keeps Firesteins men at bay for the rest of the night.
Gage and Misty: they run into the man who killed Mistys family Maru, who is able to disappear at will, along with other abilities. He intends to kill misty as well. Gage tries to save her by running the guy down with a motorcycle and ends up crashing into a wall. He is unable to help her and she is taken away by the bad guy. Grant tries to help too, but he is unable to help. both Grant and Gage are taken to the hospital.
DAY 5
NZL group:
they arrived in New Zealand in the middle of the night local time, and slept. Mikki was seperated from them and was rescued by a man named Chase (Leona's father) ( The man they were looking for for Firestein)
when morning came No-name lead the rest of the group to "The Silence" a specialized prison for humans with special powers. where they met a man who was secretly a telepath. Mikki rejoined the group at the prison. They tracked down Chase, and caught him. the Cyborg was having trouble with his processors so the group was able to work together to stop No-name from getting them all put in to the Silence. The telepath and Chase helped them to free all of the Inhumans who were in prison.
USA group:
the group try to deal with the confusion as best they can aside from the explosions there hasn't been another attack yet. They get everyone sorted out so they can arrange to help anyone who is still trapped in the cave. there are only a few people who didn't make it out. They find the missing people not too far inside the cave but they are trapped by the fallen roof, and they die shortly after being found.
Firestein sends an army to try to kill the inhumans. the men stay to fight and send the women and children to hide in the forest. Tayn takes Leona with her, who fights her, she wants to go back so that her mom can find her. Tayn decides they might as well go back, they would likely be found by Firesteins guys anyway. They meet River and her brother Thomas, who is injured on their way back. and Gage shows up.
Gage leads the wolf-people in the fight. Much fighting. One of Firesteins soldiers (Jayne) is caught and forced to help the group. there were crystals in the cave with healing properties that were used to help heal River's brothers injuries. Jayne takes one of them.
Many died with a huge lightning stike killing people on both sides. and ending the fight.
evening: the group head back to starbucks in town hoping Misty who is missing will show up there. Jayne tags along because he had heard of them and he was curious. Tayn and Zen take Leona to a safe place. Grant shows up, and then leaves to find Misty, who had managed to escape from Maru and make her way back. Grant is killed by Maru, and Jayne tries to kill Maru with his gun, but it doesn't do anything to hurt him. Misty kills Maru with an Ice sword.
The group heads to the Police station to try to find Janet and to deal with Firestein.
Tayn goes off on her own to try to find Janet. Jayne slips away to warn Firestein, the rest go down to Firestein. Gage fights him and has a chemical dumped on him that nearly kills him. Firesteins people who had come to help him initially are shocked that he would do that and change sides. Firestein pushes a button which causes one of his men to go berzerk it's a chip that he had Barnes make controlling him. Jayne shoots firestein killing him, and gives one of the healing crystals to the group to save Gage.
Rex, Thomas, and Misty stay to fight the Guy Firestein set off.
Tayn saves Janet and Barnes and takes them to Leona.
Tayn follows the sound of sirens back to her friends, the group that stayed behind does the same,
they eventually all meet up and go to the hospital.
