«We Could Be Legends»

[Thing2]

A growing sense of dread crept into Wolfram, acutely aware he had killed his father in the very same driveway he had just pulled into. The ground was trampled and drenched with blood, but his fathers lifeless form was missing from where it had been under the tree. He shuddered, wondering if Mapleshade had taken it...
His lip curled in disgust as he pulled the keys from the car. "Someone call Jenna, let her know where we are," he growled, snatching his phone from the dashboard. Taylor...much as I hate her, she might be able to help. Oh God, what if something happened to Lily? What if she's...
He shuddered, shaking off the thought. No. Can't think about her anymore. I doesn't care about me, I shouldn't care about her. Hah! If only it was that easy.
He raised the phone to his ear, startled when it didn't even ring. He pulled it away, staring at it. "Scratch that. The—" He swore under his breath, "—phone lines are down."

Brisa peered out the window at the blood-soaked ground, shocked at the amount of damage. “Darn...” she whispered, glancing at the others with wide eyes. “This must have been quite a fight.”

Wolfram twisted around to look at her, shrugging a shoulder, "this whole thing has been quite a fight," he murmured. He took a deep breath, "ok. We wait here for a bit, see if Jenna and the others find us. Regardless if they do or not, we find this Gage guy, and see if he knows anything about the poison, and if it's still going kill us. If we can't...well, I guess we'll figure it out from there. Somehow."

"Who's William?" Jessi asked curiously. "Were you guys with him when you vanished and scared me half to death?"

"Yes. He was a Faerie and gave us something that could neutralize the poison. Problem is, I think it already was released. If the iron was decaying at a high rate it could impair his vision, and also the processing functions of his brain. I think the poison melts iron somehow," Indigo explained. She pulled out the vial of gold dust.

Sherri stretched and lept up from Brisa's lap, paws and nose pressed on the window, pink lips curled back at the tangy scent of blood. She was spared for the most part from the disgusting scene, however, as all she could see were tones of grey. She could tell people had gone and went, though. There was a fight.
'Could have chosen a safer, cleaner place to reconvene?' She asked incredulously. Sherri lost her barely contained balance and landed on the floor, winding between Brisa's legs before finding a conveniently clean place to flop on her side and stare at everyone eerily through hooded green eyes.

Jessi nodded in acknowledgment. "How can we stop it?" She asked. Since Indigo was a member of the Multitude, and also the oldest and therefore the wisest of anyone in the car, they both expected her to have an answer.
After a minute, Toby spoke. "So uh, Ind - can I call you Ind? I'm gonna call you Ind. Ind, where, exactly, are we going?" He asked.
"Seriously? You wanted to drive but you don't even know where we're going? Next time let someone else drive, dummy." Jessi said, rewarding him with another smack to the back of the head.
"For the last time don't hit the driver!" Toby growled. "That is, unless you want to fly. Then go ahead, I don't mind pulling over so you can get out."
"Why don't you pull over to let Indigo drive?"
"No."
Jessi rolled her eyes. "Stubborn donkey." She muttered.
"Better a stubborn donkey than a flying lizard. At least I'm useful." Jessi growled, preparing to smack him again.

Jenna parked next to Wolfram's car and got out. She looked around for the wolfs, hoping they were close behind and didn't get crushed under a building.

"Ind?" Indigo asked. She raised an eyebrow, but soon the siblings were squabbling again. She shook her head. "No matter. We are supposed to meet up with the other kids. There's a screen by your right hand there, Toby," Toby's right hand was flung to the side over a book-sized screen. "It has all of the typical functions of a screen... if we knew their address... do we know a phone number?"

 

[Amer]

'Hey, that's Jenna!' Sherri said. She nudged Brisa before jumping on her lap and looking about.

Wolfram shot a glare at the orange tabby cat, "This is the safest current spot. Out of the city, and I very much doubt Mapleshade will think we are taking refuge here," he answered sharply, shoving the car door open to meet Jenna. "Any sign of Connor and River?" As much as Connor scared him, he couldn't bear the thought that something may have happened to him, and River...well, isn't it obvious why I'm worried about her?

'Its not,' Sherri flicked her ears. She's been here before, and therefore knows about this place. We should go somewhere farther out of town. Or one if the many other secluded areas. If you could see the fight from the road, it is neither out of town nor hidden.

"It has all of the typical functions of a screen... if we knew their address... do we know a phone number?"

They both fell silent as Indigo spoke. After she was done speaking, Toby glanced at the screen. "This is how you get in an accident. I'm not touching it. Jess, put mom's number in it." He said. Jessi growled something, and climbed into the front of the car. She put Jenna's number in it, then looked at Indigo. "Ok, now what do I do?" She asked.

'Hey, that's Jenna!' Sherri said. She nudged Brisa before jumping on her lap and looking about.

Jenna shook her head. "No. They should get here in a few minutes. Wolfs are fast, but cars are faster." She said.

"You press the call button and it calls her," Indigo explained. Didn't everyone have cars like this nowadays?
