@godlyfantasy12. Ack, sorry!!! I’m back now tho! š
Poor Puck!!! š<3
Steve
“You’re going to have to pull both of us up…I have to keep Puck with me!” Bucky called up.
Steve paused for a moment. They’d have to pull both of them at the same time…that meant something had happened to Puck, whatever it was. “That’s fine, Buck! Hold on tight, and we’ll lift both of you up!”
He turned around. “Lucien, Tony, I need both of you. Caden, can you keep an eye on Ryo too?”
Caden nodded, just as Tony plopped Ryo down beside him on the floor.
Steve held onto the end of the rope, Lucien grabbed the middle, and Tony stood near the hole.
Steve nodded at Lucien and Tony. “Ready? Alright, Buck, we’re pulling you two up!”
March 15, 2023 at 4:42 pm #137022@freedomwriter76
Lucien
Lucien met Cadenās eyes. He could see the worry in them that mirrored his own.
Bucky was carrying Puckā¦
Had something happened? Was he hurtā¦?
Orā¦
Lucien shook those thoughts from his head.
Noā¦worse case scenario, the kid didnāt want to climb because he was scared.
Not that heād want anyone to know that.
It was only by chance that Lucien knew about the kidās intense fear.
After all, he was the reason for itā¦
He remembered it clearly, like it was yesterday.
A small trek; him, Caden, Fen, Azul and Aaron.
Except, Puck had wanted to come along.
He always wanted to come along.
Heād only been five then thoughā¦
And Lucienā¦being his ornery self, was adamant. He didnāt want the brat ruining the older boys fun.
Heād tried to send him home. Theyād argued.
And then, like the stupid kid he was, Lucien told the younger boy that, if he wanted to stay, heād have to prove he could.
As if Puck, of all kids would back down from a dareā¦
No matter how stupid.
And itĀ wasĀ stupidā¦
āAlright! I dare you to climb the Great Tree then!ā
āFine!ā
And he had. Heād scurried up the tree untilā¦.
They couldnāt see him anymore.
And that was when Lucien knew heād messed up. As soon as the kidās tiny form disappeared, he knew, they all did, that this wasnāt going to end well.
But it was too late by then.
And once everything was said and done, it was too late to go backā¦
A few weeks after the accident, everything went back to normal, though Lucien still felt guiltyā¦
And he always noticed that Puck was a little off tooā¦until one day he finally found out why.
No longer did he climb roofs or trees or jump off of rocks and benches anymore.
He preferred to stay on the ground. Rooted.
Lucien and Steve gave one more sharp heave, grunting as two hands appeared, holding onto the rope theyād been pulling; one metal, one flesh.
Steve grabbed Bucky, helping him, and the boy wrapped around him, scurry up through the hole in the floor.
āPuck!ā Caden called.ā He held Benji close, along with Ryo in his other arm. His eyes were wide, scanning the boy for any sign of injury.
Slowly, Puck untangled himself, opening his tightly closed eyes. He eased back, wincing a bit.
āYou good?ā Bucky asked him. Puck nodded, stretching.
āYeaā¦Iām fineā¦ā He said. He peered at the hole for a moment before quickly looking away.
For a second, he met Lucienās eyes.
Lucien tried for a smile, though he couldnāt help the bit of guilt he felt twisting in his stomach.
Puck slowly stood, arching his back. He made a face.
āPuck?ā Lucien questioned.
The boy shook his head. āIām fine.ā

@godlyfantasy12. (apparently I RPed for Aaron, Ginny, and Elias last…š ) @lightoverdarkness6.
Lily
āS-sureā¦um, which way should we g-go?ā
Lily slightly narrowed her eyes, turning, peering down both ways of the hall.
She tapped her chin. “Hmm, I’m not sure, Asher…Kiri, what do you think!?”
Isabel
āUhā¦hi. Iām looking for two 14 year old boys, Matthew and Asher. Have you seen them?ā
Iris turned to the young man with a kind, motherly smile. She slowly shook her head. “I’m afraid not. I just got in here. Have any of you?”
Jonathan shook his head, squeezing Isabel’s hand. “Nope, sorry.”
Isabel smiled faintly at the young man, an apologetic smile. “We’d say if we did…but I’m sorry, we haven’t seen anyone else.”
Eli glanced between everyone, an eyebrow raised, completely unsure of what was going on.
Albert
Albert leaned back against the wall, tapping the many stones.
They all had different textures…different feels…it felt…nice, somehow.
“Matthew, which way would you like to go?ā
That was Lila.
āU-uhā¦Wh-whichever one you w-want to,ā
That was Matthew.
Albert could tell who was who. It was easy when one was a girl and one was a boy.
Besides, he could figure things out…he just thought differently.
Yeah, that was it.

Awww, Puck!!! Lucien!!!! šššš
Steve
“BUCKY!” Ryo screeched, trying to break free of Caden’s grip.
Steve quickly grabbed him before he hurt himself.
Bucky stood and gave Ryo an easy smile. “Hey there, kiddo.” He took Ryo into his arms.
Steve turned to Nehemiah and mouthed a “thank you” for the rope.
Nehemiah nodded and smiled, watching everyone.
Steve faced Tony. Raised an eyebrow.
Tony stared at him for a long moment…and slowly sighed. “Fine…”
He turned to face Bucky. “Sorry about all that fighting, Barnes.”
Bucky shrugged. “Kinda my fault too…sorry. But hey, you’re not always bad, Stank.” He winked.
Tony rolled his eyes. “Whatever, Metal Head.”
Steve smiled and turned to Puck, Lucien, and Caden. “Hey, Puck…you good?”
March 15, 2023 at 5:13 pm #137040@freedomwriter76 oh whoops!! XD @lightoverdarkness6
Kiri
āHm. That way?ā She nodded her head down a corridor. Asher shrugged.
āS-Sureā¦ā He said, walking that way, Kiri close beside him.
āSo,Ā Ash,Ā you have any family? Hobbies? Tell me about yourself!ā Kiri grabbed his hand, smiling.
(Sheās just gonna completely ignore Lily XD)
Puck
Puck veered away from the hole in the ground, not wishing the be anywhere near it. He could still feel his nerves frayed from the feeling of weightlessness when heād fallen earlier. And the soreness from landing.
Not to mention the pain in his back had finally relentedā¦and he really wanted to move on as quickly as possible.
The tips of his ears flushed red at the thought of how vulnerable heād beenā¦down in that hole.
He hated that feelingā¦
Puck nodded in reply to Steve, walking over to Caden, arms wrapped around himself. He kept his eyes on his feet. On the groundā¦
What if there were more traps like that?
He looked up.
Lucien was staring at him.
His nose crinkled. He glared.Ā What was his deal?
āWell, Iām glad weāve got you back, Metalhead,ā the man, Tony said. āYou too Rabbit.ā Puckās glare turned to him. Tony raised a brow. āGeez, easy kid.ā
Puck sighed, releasing a breath. He could feel eyes on him, but desperately tried to ignore them.
He couldnāt blame his annoyance or agitation on anyone else nowā¦
The emotions around him wereā¦pretty level at the moment.
Upbeatā¦thankfulā¦everyone was in a better mood.
Noā¦his agitation was all his own this time.
He was ready to move.
āCan we get going now?ā He whispered to Caden.
Caden looked down, brows furrowing, Benji still in his arms. āAhā¦Iām sure we can.ā

@godlyfantasy12 Lol, Kiri. š (poor Lily!)
Bucky
Ryo giggled.
Bucky smiled faintly, putting him up on his shoulders, holding onto his legs to keep him from falling.
He glanced over at Puck, whose gaze almost completely stayed down.
Something was up…something was wrong.
Very wrong.Ā
Puck was easier to understand, now that Bucky understood what he could do…what he had to deal with all the time.
It couldn’t have been easy to know everyone’s feelings.
Caden turned to Steve. “Are we going to get moving?”
Steve nodded, glancing from Caden to Puck and back to Caden. “…Yeah. Let’s go.”
March 16, 2023 at 8:02 pm #137340@freedomwriter76 @lightoverdarkness6 heyā¦any ideas what to do next?
Vanceās group I figure maybe get some conflict going? Maybe Alex jumps the gun to save bren?? And ends up getting them I n trouble and Vance escapes with Bren and meets the other villains or at least some and they start plotting (and their plotting included Bren, and Matthew and whoever else??
as for the others groups idk what all to do for themā¦? Any ideas?
Maybe we focus on the villains for a bit and they plot to start their own search and run into some of the groups? Idkā¦what do yāall think?
#IfMarcelDiesIRiot
#ProtectMarcel
#ProtectSebMarch 16, 2023 at 8:36 pm #137351Yeah, that sounds good!! That group does need something to happen, lol.
Yes, I’m okay with focusing on the villains for a bit! @freedomwriter76 What are your thoughts??

March 16, 2023 at 8:49 pm #137355@godlyfantasy12 @freedomwriter76
Asher
As we began walking down one of the many halls, Kiri asked, āSo, Ash, you have any family? Hobbies? Tell me about yourself!ā
She grabbed my hand, smiling.
I blushed, and glanced at Lily. She smiled knowingly, causing my cheeks to turn as red as a ripe apple.
“Uh…well, I have a older sister…Iris. And my b-brother…he’s nineteen…his name is Dylan. And…” I paused.
Do I even have parents? Are they alive?Ā
I shook that off.
“Ah…I like to climb…trees especially. And I like reading…Oh, and…um…” I flushed, looking down at my shoes.
“…I like helping my sister cook.”

@godlyfantasy12 @lightoverdarkness6 y’all know what…???
I’m gonna go on ahead and get this conflict stuff started XD
ALEX
Alex glanced between Vance and Riker.
Riker watched Vance with suspicion in his dark blue eyes, his grip on his sons tight.
He was suspicious of Vance too.
She glanced at Bren, then Madelene.
Madelene shook her head; mouthed, “Alex, no.”
But Alex was tired of waiting.
She turned on Vance in a flurry of fury. “Let Bren go, Vance. He’s not your son. Admit it already. You’re kidnapping him, so just throw away your pride and your lying and admit to it!”
(lol…welp…Alex is…uh…starting stuff…š¤)
March 18, 2023 at 9:28 pm #137609@freedomwriter76 @godlyfantasy12
Uh oh…š¤š¤š«¢
Iām gonna go on ahead and get this conflict stuff started XD
Sounds good girl!! š
Vance
Riker eyed me curiously, suspicion glittering in his bright blue eyes.
I quirked my lips, looking him in the eyes.
I noticed he had a hard time maintaining eye contact.
Good…
He’s afraid of me…
Or…
I glanced at his kids.
Afraid what I might do…as he should be.Ā
Suddenly, Alex turned on me, eyes shining with fury. āLet Bren go, Vance. Heās not your son. Admit it already. Youāre kidnapping him, so just throw away your pride and your lying and admit to it!ā
I raised a brow.
“You’re saying this…and you have no idea who I am…you don’t knowĀ if I’m his father or not…”
“…Do you realize how stupid that was?” I asked, my voice light, playful, even.
She furrowed her brows, confused. Then a scowl spreading across her face.
“Let. Him. Go,” She snarled.
I snapped. My patience was gone, replaced now by irritation, anger, and…fear. Fear at failing.
I would not be a failure. Not again.Ā
“No!” I shouted at her, hot anger rising in me. “You haveĀ no ideaĀ what I’ve gone through, how close I am…if you want him…then find me the two boys, Asher and Matthew, and bring them to me. Then…”
I slowly backed away, Bren in my grasp.
“I will make the trade. If not…” I drew the blade out from under my cloak.
I heard Madelene gasp softly, and I smirked.
“Something may happen to your little…friend here,” I said, holding the knife out at the group, daring them to come forward.
They stayed, eyes wide.
I could hear young Bren’s rapid breathing.
Suddenly, Riker stepped forward, his eyes pleading. “Please…don’t do this.”
I smiled, sadistic and cruel. “Don’t do what…? I’m not doing anything…yet. All youĀ have to do is bring me those boys. They’ll come willingly enough…as long as you don’t tell them where you’re taking them.”
“Now…goodbye.”
I turned to Alex. “I hope you’re proud of what you caused to happen here…I would be.”
Then, I turned and pushed Bren into a doorway to another hall. He yelped and stumbled through the door.
I faced the group, smirking. I waved, feigning sadness at the parting.
Then, I was gone from their sight, disappearing into the hall, keeping Bren in front of me.
