<< >> ???? WHERE IS EVERY ONE?

still looking for Bo......

If I have to post every day I will keep this thread near the top!

"Yes milady, I would love to hear your theory, I was a might bit busy and have only one idea about what might of happened.” AJ said turning his chair to face Osmella. He had an idea what had happened; the portal was fine befor the incedent, there was an experienced opperator at the controles, and every one with in proximity of the portal had been checked, that left outside factors.......powerful outside factors.

((Sorry this took so long. Started this at work and erased it on my computer so I started over today))

“Well then I guess we will just have to wait till I can bring the good stuff from P.C. and we can all partake.” AJ said leaning back in his chair. The tension seemed to have died off as far as he could tell, he could normally read peoples expressions well, but mind controllers are a mystery to him.

AJ leaned forward again with a serious look on his face. “I ought not to be drinking any way,” he began fiddling with his napkin, “Now that I am back I will probly be questioned on the incident with Diva and Sib. Tomorrow.” He saw the concerned look on Sibling face then raised his hand as if to ward off any trouble. “Just standard procedures. They will question anyone who was in the vicinity of the portal that had the problem. They just want to see if either: Scientific, Technological, Magical, or if some natural occurrence that threw the portal off somehow.”

“Anyways,” he began the smile back in full, “It seems I am with out a job for at least a week more. I all most do not know what to do with all this free time! Over the last 2 months I have spent twenty days off world. And I’ll tell you what, seventy five percent of the time is so boring you would go crazy. The other twenty five when something does happen the PPC is there to take care of it, the only time I see action is if I am standing on the spot or we know there is trouble going in.” He paused to take a sip of water from the glass in front of him.

((Charm is on the way....Ada is working himself up to it ))

((You guys STAY SAFE and keep it under 100!!!.....OK 150 but no more!!!))

AJ smile faded to a slightly smug grin “I am afraid you have mistaken gallantry for training.” He straightened his shirt and sat down. “I did not mean to offend, old habit is all. “

The blaster looked at the wine list, confusion set on his face. “If one of you ladies could please,” he said passing the wine list off, “I have no idea about any of these.” He knew the different types of wines , but lacked the knowledge of this worlds brands. “Any idea what Diva might like?”

((Ada. Could not help himself with the chair thing, he would not sit till Sibling is seated and will rise when Diva approaches. He will make no apologies bet will refrain as best as he can. This is all stuff that is coming to him, he remembers he should do it he just does not know where he learned it.))

The night was surly getting more interesting than AJ expected it would. Martin led them to a large square table set for four. He asked Martin to please hang his Portal Corp. jacket up. He pulled out Lady Osmella’s chair and awaited for her to sit. “It is nice to see so many sisters here. I feel well protected” he said awaiting for her to take her seat.

The sister looked at Adavan for a moment before sitting. He noticed Lady Osmella’s eyes still switching between the two small parties. “ No need to worry miss, there is enough fire power in this room to level most of bricks town.” he said hoping ease some of her concern. “By the way my name is AJ, I prefer to be called that or Ada,” he said making eye contact with her “The only people who call me Adavan are civilians and heroes who do not know me.”

((sounds like a big night for Ladies of the Lake. This is a blast by the way))

Still unfamiliar with the customs of the sisters, AJ decided to just say “Good evening ladies,” as they approached. He was normally did not introduce himself to new people, but he was sure Sibling would let him make a huge fool of himself.

He felt more than a little out of place among the sisters, there customs and organization both amazed him and intimidated him. The few sisters he worked with were some of the most powerful heroes he had met, as well as the most honest and loyal. He was happy to be in their company, but did not just did not understand there ways.

((HI DIVA!!1!!!11...leaning on for Sib intros!))

AJ followed a few paces behind Gypsy, hands behind his back as he strolled behind her. He caught a glimpse of figures near the entry foyer and quickly sized up the situation: Four adults; one young girl: one with weapons visible. Gypsy’s relaxed posture put his mind at ease. A glint of recognition flashed in his mind, *Sibling, you lil devils*.

AJ smiled at the group as Gypsy gave the Sisters customary greeting when they passed the group heading towards the office. *Must be a coincidence* he knew the twins did not know he was coming much less staying. Looks like the day just got a lil more interesting.

((long day at work....wanted to post to keep every thing moving...sorry if I am missing something))

“Food would be wonderful,” AJ said rising from his chair. “I feel like I have not eaten in a week.”

AJ looked around the bar, seeing that it was still a little early and not many people had yet arrived “If I could use your phone real fast I would be most appreciative. I need to check in and make sure I am still off the mission roster. I would hate to get a call tonight and be three sheets to the wind.”

“Well, saying my visit home went poorly would be an understatement,” AJ said as he leaned forward to rest his elbows on his knees, “I am not in any trouble or anything. But I seem to be left out of a lot of the loop.” His voice gave off an air of anger that the twins had rarely seen. “Becky has decided to quite Bio Factor to work with the Government. She is going to be there, and I quote, Liaison of Enhanced Human Affairs.”

“Becky, Julian, Mia, Serra, and myself were the original Bio Factor. She is the one responsible for us coming together, she gave us our first real purpose, our goals for using our powers.” He hung his head down too look at the floor; he did not realize how much this really bugged him. He look back up too his friend and continued, “When I went back this last time she was the first person I saw, she was all smiles and polite, so much so that I did not question the extra tests they seemed to be doing.” AJ’s eyes flashed with a dim burst of light before he slowly exhaled and continued. “As soon as I was cleared medically she said it was nice to see me again and left! Just like that. It was not till I arrived home that Julian called and explained it too me.”

“He said that the President himself asked her to do this. They want to keep tabs on us in case we are needed to fight against a non conventual’s threat again.” Adavan sat back into chair, his posture relaxed as he watched Sibling casually sip at their tea. He realized that this is one of the few people in either dimension he could talk to. AJ’s smile returned as he spoke “I was the only person she felt the need to deceive.”

((Sorry about the big monolog. Ada is talking to his therapist after all , and just needed to vent. As Sibling knows it just takes a sec for him to cool off, and all is right in the world again.))

“Ya know,” AJ said looking around admiring the decorum, “I really should slap myself for not coming here sooner.” His eyes brightened and his smile began to return, ”So this is where the sisters and friends hang out when they are not fighting the good fight, lets talk about something a lil less dreary now that I have that off my chest.”

AJ let out an all most audible sigh as the twins stepped onto the kitchen area before him. It was as if admitting to himself that Becky wanted nothing to do with him closed a door, but as it slammed in his face he was able too see an endless corridor of possibilities. He looked back over his shoulder as he followed Sibling into the kitchen. Defiantly time for a new start.

The warmth from the kitchen washed over him, not very noticeable for most people, but for someone who channels heat energy into kinetic blasts it was like stepping out of a house into a light sprinkle of rain. The smell of foods reminded him he had not eaten since he returned to this dimension.

“Mmmmm….Food” Ada smiled as both heroes and civies looked at him. “I am starved and tired and just a lil grumpy. Is there anyway we can find someplace to sit down and chill for a bit?” he asked looking around hanging pots and pans for any sign of Gal. "And, for some reason, I am interested to hear about this friend of yours."

"But Modesty is somethiing I do so well", AJ said Turning up his nose giving his best english impersonaton.

He rutuned to his normal, every thing is right in the world smile, as he closed the crate back up. "Does this sisiter have andy kinda of mind control powers? My powers used to be able to protect my thoughts, but with inhibitors in I feel like an open book."

The blaster shook his Head as if to clear out a bad thought or day dream, "any way lets get these crates out of your walk way, then you guys can give me the tour and fine a nice spot to talk about my pathedic love life and some info on Malta I was given".


((MY bad Sib. Ada just dislikes letting people down. He also knows you did not mean you are interested, he surprised him self when he even asked the question about a girl...last trip home kinda sealed it for him.))

AJ's smile slowly faded as Martin walked away. "I do not get the feeling she has truly forgiven me", he said as he sat on the top crate "but as usual you have more insight to the situation than I do". His smiled returned, as the controller looked over the three wood boxes with burned in labels. "Cool huh! There not all here yet, I have one case and two bottles still in Quarantine back at Portal Corp", he hopped off and unlatched the top of the first crate "The case is held cause it is made from curry peppers, and the two bottles are giving off residual magic so they need to be tested. The rest is stuff that you could get in this dimension if they made it". Ada hands Sibling a bottle of red wine dated 1997, they smile as they read the label and saw the picture of a drunken goat. Bully Hill-I love MY Goat.

((OCC: Adavan works at Portal Corp. as a Biologist and more recently as Mission Leader. He is part of an information exchange program between P.C. and Genstar (a Major laboratory from his home dimension). He was way too busy to stop by the bar much earlier but now has ample time while his team is pending an investigation. Right now he feels obligated to Sibling and Trollkin-Diva for what happened to them while under his care at Portal Corp.))((…….I R a Hi-skewl gradeueight….i donnit speel or tiep so good. My cumpuder doosnit have Microsoft word™ so plees don’t kill meh!!1!11 ))

AJ Baker, AKA Adavan, struggles though the door carrying 3 large crates. "Excuse me sir. Uh where can I put these?" he asks the stuffy gentleman behind the counter. "These are the wines Gal asked me to bring back for her". Ada strains as he slowly lowers the crates to the gound with out throwing his back out.

Dam I had just gotten down how take down bosses again.....now it will be stomp fest for blasters again!!!
