Courting Death - Signs
Kalypso wasn't sleeping, she didn't need to sleep, but she was letting herself doze a bit and let her mind wander. Jack was asleep next to her and she was aware of his rhythmic breathing. She idly wondered what he was dreaming of and while it was tempting to peek into his dreams, Kal respected his privacy.

Her mind wandered.

Then came the warning from her mother. "Stay away from Olympia!" Then Sersi's mental presence was gone. Cut off as quickly as it came.

Kal quickly sat up in the bed. "Mother?" she sent out.

No response.

She searched for other Eternals and found none.

	"Not a problem." He grasped her hand tightly. "I'll catch you on the other side." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal took a deep breath and then teleported them to Olympia. One moment they were in their apartment in New York City and the next they were in the Eternal city of Olympia in Antarctica. Kal gasped when she saw the destruction to the city. There had been a battle here, but with whom? What happened to the Eternals? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh my god. What could have done this?" He was shocked and appalled at what he saw as a desecration of the structures he'd admired on previous visits. "Can you sense if anyone is still here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know," Kal said. "We're the only living things in the city." She could tell that much. If there had been anyone left in the city she would have picked up their mental signatures. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay, no one living..." That was bad, had to get her mind off who might be dead. Rephrase, quick. He tried again. "No one here. I wasn't allowed to see a lot in our visits, but do you know where we would find recordings or a visual record of what happened? A comm room that monitors Olympia?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal shook her head. "There was no need. There's no crime in Olympia or secrets." That was one drawback to the uni-mind. There were no secrets when one was part of a large collective. Everything was put out there for all to see. "I need to contact Iason." Her cousin popped into her head and she had to tell him his father was missing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's a good idea." It was clear she would need better back up than he could provide. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He has to know his father is missing," Kal clarified. She'd rather have no one else at her side other than Jack. "Let's go home." Kal sighed. Whatever happened here was big and she knew life was about to get interesting. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, he does," Jack agreed. He put an arm around her for the return trip. "He's better equipped to help you find out what happened to everyone here, too. I want to help every way I can, and I will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, but I'd rather have you watching my back," she said and kissed him. They appeared in NYC just before the kiss ended. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2013-05-29 05:47 am UTC (link)
	"Anything you want," he said with a smile against her lips as the kiss ended. "What's our next move?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2013-05-29 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	"I have to figure out how to contact Iason," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't supposed you can sent up a smoke signal?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Only if they could reach Knowhere," Kal said. "Ready for a trip to Titan? They have the technology there to let me talk to Knowhere." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2013-06-02 01:07 am UTC (link)
	Jack clasped her hand tight. "Ready when you are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal kissed him and the two teleported to Titan. Teleporting was much better with kissing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack brushed his nose against hers before looking away to see if anyone was around. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal smiled when he brushed his nose against hers. She took his hand in hers and started to lead him toward one of the buildings. It was time to contact Iason and give him the not so good news. (Reply to this)(Parent)
