«We Could Be Legends»

Sherri squirm as far away as she could. This person was intimidating, so was her sword. But most important, Sherri was concerned by the fact she had no idea what the weird, ravenous wolf was talking about.
Plus, her being a dog and all was still concerning.

Misty noticed the girl shifting away from her and was about to say "Dont worry Im all bark no bite" but that was a lie. So she just placed her head on her paws and closed her eyes

Wolfram slammed his hands around the steering wheel violently. Though, truly, he felt like ramming his head into it. He watched Bleddyn from his car, waiting for the others. "I–" Slap. "Am–" Slap. "A–" Slap. "Idiot!" He punctuated each word with a mild smack to the black rimmed steering wheel, his voice bitter. "I'm so clueless." He groaned to himself, letting his forehead fall on his steering wheel. He groaned as a pain shot through his head, but he ignored it. He leaned against the steering wheel, when a sharp beep scared the crap out of him. He lurched upwards, swearing violently. Oh look, I succeeded in scaring myself. Lovely.
Blowing it off, he rolled down his window. "Lets go already! Unless you all want to die!"

River slid into the seat beside him, calmly studying his face for a mere moment, before glowering out the window. "Will you people ever be able to even get in a car when you're told to?" She growled impatiently, proudly noting that when they heard her voice, Finlay and Lachlan scrambled into the back of Wolfram's car, Lachlan having taken the form of a silver wolf and having to be let in by his brother.

She growled impatiently, proudly noting that when they heard her voice, Finlay and Lachlan scrambled into the back of Wolfram's car, Lachlan having taken the form of a silver wolf and having to be let in by his brother.

Wolfram looked back at Finlay, Alice and Lachlan, giving a soft huff, though it wasn't clear why. Turning back, he slowly rolled up the window, eyes lingering outside for a moment, before looking away. Stop worrying about her and get a move on.
"Let's do this thing, then..." He muttered, voice barely audible even to himself, as he started the car, eyes flickering over the far side of the park, as if he was looking for something. His hand hesitated, still holding the key, eyes narrowed. I know you're out there, Mapleshade. But where?

Wolfram's eyes fluttered back open, his eyes dragging over the ragged group. He drew in a shuddering breath, the claws of suffocation releasing their grasp on his throat. The anxiety was still pounding at his chest, the voice in his head whispering incoherently over and over. We need to do something...!
"We need to get the key, guys!" He spoke up, forcing himself back on his feet. His voice seemed almost ragged, weak, as if he hadn't used it in days. "We have to get it now, before Mapleshade does. Or we'll lose everything."

"Wolfram's right." River growled, pushing her way forward through the group towards him. "Brisa has the key to the lock box." She breathed quietly to him. "Let's go." She barked at the others, twisting her head around to give them a dark glare, as though daring them to challenge her order.

"All inhumans, half the population of the world, Sherri. They want to take our powers from us because... Because they're maniacal idiots. Have you even been listening?" River muttered darkly, eyes rooted to Sherri with an unreadable glint to them.

"No just us, you moron! Half the population of Inhuman's." Wolfram snapped.

Wolfram nodded, eyes flickering over the group as if searching for the girl. Help me do this, Mom. Please don't let Mapleshade get it before us. He let out a soft growl, jerking his head at the group as a indication to get a move on. "Lets do this thing then." He muttered, sweeping away from the group and to his car.

"I have enough van space and weaponry to outfit you all," Indigo called from the van she was leaning against, the Multitude van of course.

"If 'ran into' means they stalked our every move and then decided to attack us, then yes." Wolfram growled softly, his words sharp and tense as he almost seemed to tip-toe around the severity of the fight.

Wolfram slammed his hands around the steering wheel violently. Though, truly, he felt like ramming his head into it. He watched Bleddyn from his car, waiting for the others. "I–" Slap. "Am–" Slap. "A–" Slap. "Idiot!" He punctuated each word with a mild smack to the black rimmed steering wheel, his voice bitter. "I'm so clueless."

Brisa, who had gotten in the car pretty quickly for a moment of relative peace and ended up having a panic attack instead, spoke quietly in response to River, wanting to make her presence known. “It’s like herding a hundred frightened cats.” She said, a hint of pain behind her humor, smiling a bit despite the tear tracks on her face. The the immense gravity of the key in her pocket was weighing on her, and the fact that she held the future of billions of people in her hand was finally sinking in. The constant anxiety she was feeling reminded her of her freshman and sophomore years of high school except multiplied greatly, and it was wearing at her.

While Misty had her eyes closed, Rivers scent slowly began to fill her senses and thoughts swirled around her head. River... Why are we so similar? Memories filled her mind of back on Elemians. She remembered an old Sage that she met who traveled to other dimensions in his youth. He told her many things about dimensions in general but only a few stuck out to her. One of which was the fact that no matter how different the dimensions might be, there is always doppelgangers. They might be different but in general, they are the same person. Once Misty remembered that she lept out of her seat, she knocked over Delilah and Zion and scared the life out of them. She said sorry and cuddled them for a moment before shifting into her human form and tapping River on the shoulder. "Meet me outside real quick, Riv. I need to talk to you about something privately," she muttered. Then she grabbed Svelhjart and hopped out of the car and walked quite a ways away.

Connor, having noted a progressive movement among the group, shifted back and gradually made his way over.

Jessi glanced around. "What are we waiting for? Let's go." She said. "But first we need to figure out the car problem. Who will go in who's car?"

You don't just not have wings, you don't have anything- so it's all impossible.
Bleddyn shook her head sharply to dispel the dark dictator and backed off, putting the long overdue distance between herself and him. "No, it's fine, and I'll be along."
She bit down on her lip and spun on her heel, now in search of her elusive parents.

Wolfram slammed his hands around the steering wheel violently. Though, truly, he felt like ramming his head into it. He watched Bleddyn from his car, waiting for the others. "I–" Slap. "Am–" Slap. "A–" Slap. "Idiot!" He punctuated each word with a mild smack to the black rimmed steering wheel, his voice bitter. "I'm so clueless."

Blowing it off, he rolled down his window. "Lets go already! Unless you all want to die!"

Bleddyn marched up to her wandering father, face drawn and lacking healthy color. "Dad, we're all going." She was hoping her father was too mentally preoccupied to pick up on her emotional unrest. "How did you guys come?"
"Mrs. Davis' car," Ash supplied simply as she made her way up to the other two thirds of her family. She gave Bleddyn a long thorough look that had her daughter inwardly wince, but then she leaned forward and gave Bleddyn a quick squeeze. "I'm glad you finally got here, honey. Why don't ride with us? I'm sure we could find an extra seat." She then cast a mischievous glance over at her diffident husband. "Or we could just get him to shift and hang out the window."
Connor blinked a few times and frowned at that, brow furrowing in confusion. "I can't just hang by my ankles...I'd drag on the street..."
Ash sighed, her face going deadpan. "Joke, honey, it was a joke."
With that, she grabbed an arm from both and began hauling her lackluster family toward Jenna's van.

Wolfram glanced into the backseat, previously not knowing she was there, for she had been so quiet.
"Mhm, that's a good explanation for them." He agreed quietly. His gaze lingered on her for a heartbeat longer, though. He could see the familiar glitter of pain behind her eyes, by her body language. "It's going to be ok." He whispered to her, giving a sharp, reassuring nod. "I promise."

Jenna walked to her van and got into the drivers seat. Starting the car, she waited for the Asfaws to get in. She stared out the window, lost in thought. She was worried about her children. They could get hurt, or worse, they could die. We must stop these people before that happens, before anyone else dies. She thought. She frowned, watching her daughter say something to Indigo and climb into her car. She wished she had super hearing, having a sudden urge to know what she said. She did not approve of Jessi going into a car with a stranger, but now was probably not the best time to bring it up.

“Thanks.” She whispered with a slight smile, locking eyes with him, her eyelashes wet from her tears. After a moment she blinked rapidly and sat up, reaching a shaking hand into her pocket and bringing back the still-unopened white envelope that held the key. Dropping it into her lap, she glanced up at Wolfram. “Where are we going next?” She asked, attempting to drive off the tremor in her voice.
