Lost and Found

The rebel lair's outer door opens, revealing a black sillouette of a figure.

Mystique pulls two guns, instantly levelling them at the sillouette's chest. "Is he with you?" It's too tall and lean to be James, but she's still pushed the remaining grenade out of her chest and into her lap. Just in case.

"Silver? Peter?"

The figure staggers forward. Once the light is behind him, he's still nothing more than a black sillouette.

"Stephen...he's still alive."

"I'll start getting everyone ready to move. We need to get him back, if we can, though.."

"Silver, Peter, I confess I am relieved to hear you were already planning to move."

Without him.

Don't think about that.

"I know we planned on taking the Mb..." he pauses, not sure how much information to give out in front of these strangers. "I remember our next probable location. But please, listen to me. We are so few. He will come for us, and at nightfall the Barons will come for us, and any surivors will be whittled down to too few for a real strike. We must attack now."

He leans back, cupping Silver's face in one hand. "We must go to the palace."

Away from the last rituals of the doomed, Sarah is just waking up. She looks remarkably recovered and awake despite just a couple of hours of sleep, especially as rough as she looked before. The spirited discussion and raised voices are probably what roused her, but at least she doesn't look about to collapse anymore.

"Nnn, what's going on?"

"The plan died with Dani." Roberto's face hardens, a little of the tension creeping back into his posture.

"But I learned something. Something that may be the key to the Queen's power. There's a man, Yeshua, named after the prophet. He is responsible for keeping the Queen's favourite pets alive. And her enemies... Sooraya..." He shudders at the memory.

"We take out her healer and we take out one of her greatest sources of strength. Rumor has it there hasn't been an omega level healer born in the last decade. The Cassidy's used theirs up three years ago. The one in Westchester comitted suicide right after the takeover." His lips tighten into a thin line. "Rumor says the one in Vegas is actually running the place, but that could just be a wishful thinking." False hope hurts everyone.

"Here's what we're going to do." (http://community.livejournal.com/elseworldexiles/6621.html)

He's impressed with the blue kid's disappearing act. If the blonde is right about her power acting as a battery for them...

Damn.

Someone might actually survive.
