Family Affairs, Cont.
Kristoff woke, very sore, head pounding. He was out of his armor, his hands restrained and locked behind his back. He hadn't ascertained what kind of lock yet, because he was busy noticing the other compartments. Separating everyone via transparent plastic was fairly...classic. He spotted Vincent first, apparently well; Kristoff was actually grateful just to see him even under the circumstances, with all he'd started to fear...
Cassandra, too, though she didn't seem to have regained consciousness, seemed essentially unharmed.
There wasn't a fourth compartment. Instead, outside any of the plastic confines, standing next to his own armor, was Andrea's body. And set beside Cassie was Andrea's head.

Once it's ascertained that the skrull has nothing of particular interest on him and has been restrained, they go ahead ans leave the room, to find themselves in a small corridor, winding to a few rooms with displays. Some are in English. Kristoff raises and eyebrow. "To 'get into character,' no doubt. Most of this matches what's known of Skrull designs, on the smaller end of the scale." He looks it over. "We are still planetside. It is...just about midnight, no more than 20 hours since he got me."

	An expression of comprehension, followed by horror, washes over Vincent's face, as Kristoff relates the time. "Oh no.... it could have been that long?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I will need to reset my internal chronometer," Andrea observed. "It failed to keep time properly during the period in which I was incapacitated." She gave Vincent a curious look. "Is there a problem?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Yes, Vincent. All things considered, we are relatively lucky. I believe the landing-ramp can be opened safely." And after some time messing with buttons, this happens.

And then, just as the steps have properly set down in what appears to be an isolated region of Central Park....klaxon sounds go off, the console goes into lockdown, and the steps slowly start to raise again.

	His chance to retort to his brother cut off, Vincent rushes down the steps, bracing himself between the steps and a frame of the exit. "Move!" He digs his heels in; even as a half-blood, his strength is still that of an Asgardian he should be able to hold this for a few moments. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Andrea reinforced Vincent's strength with a column of invisible force. The strain was incredible, but she bore it well. She herself began to hurry down the steps. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	On the one hand there was freedom and on the other... did they really have to abandon an alien ship with their assailant on board? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cassandra, we don't know what it will do or where it may go, we have to get out!" Kristoff says hurriedly as soon as he notices her hesitation, heading for the steps but not out of reach of her yet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're right." Cassie finally headed down, even if she really would have preferred to both find out more about what happened and to kick the skrull's ass again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And soon they were out, and as soon as the stairs were not being forcibly held open, they slammed shut and the ship restealthed itself as it apparently took off. And they had plenty of people to inform of their still-vital-status and the circumstances of recent events. (Reply to this)(Parent)
