Corvina
“Would you mind untying me then?” Corvina asked, glaring at the woman who still held her. “I’d rather not be trussed up like a holiday turkey, thank you.”
The woman didn’t seem to hear her, or ignored her entirely, not making any movement to untie her bonds.
A flicker of anxiety swarmed through her chest.
Idiot! Letting myself get caught…
“It was rather foolish.”
Shut up.
Corvina huffed, thinking to herself. “And I don’t have any companions, by the way,” she stated.
No point in keeping that a secret.
“Don’t you, though?”
No.
“What about-“
I. Said. No.
Corvina’s heart thumped at the thought of her brother.
He wouldn’t actually try to save her…would he?
“You know the answer to that. The boy’s sensitive. Sniveling little-”
Corvina’s eyes flared, fists clenching. “SHUT YOUR MOUTH,” she cried, out loud, though the voice had only spoken to her.
Those around her jumped to attention, gripping their weapons and staring at the seemingly mad girl with wide eyes.
And…Corvina did look rather mad…with her pale skin, and ebony hair, falling in wild locks over her face, hands bound behind her back.
She heaved in a few breaths, squeezing her eyes shut.
Great. Now look what you did.
“Me? That was all you, darling.”
Corvina let out a shuddering sigh. She turned to face the woman who had bound her, a new tiredness on her features, “Can we just get going now?”

Feather & Crosshair
Two men…..
who fell out of the sky?? Or at least one of them did.
Crosshair’s rifle was in his hands and aimed at the men in seconds.
“Hello there! I am Thor, this is my brother Loki. Have we barged in unannounced?” said the blonde, bearded one.
Feather eyed them warily.
What sort of powers did they have?
“Yes….sort of.” she finally managed to say. “Were you here all this time?”
(she is not a fan of them right now, lol.)
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.

@princesachronicle22 @thearcaneaxiom (it’s okay, totally understand! ❤️ love N’nesha, btw)
Bucky
“Who are y-you?”
The second woman, N’nesha, finally spoke.
Bucky eased a bit of the tension from his shoulders, but he kept an eye on Viola always. “I-I’m Bucky. Bucky Barnes.”
“And I am Viola Juliana Kurt. You may call me Viola. I would love to travel with you. What are you two ladies’ names?”
She wasn’t acting normal.
She was acting weird.
And that’s what scared him the most.

lol, Feather already doesn’t like them 🤣
Loki
“Were you here all this time?” the woman asked.
Thor shook his head. “No. We just now showed up. I’m not entirely sure what this place is…or who all of you people are. I wouldn’t mind a fun adventure though. Me and Loki love adventures, don’t we, brother?”
“I suppose,” Loki replied with a smirk, “but I love pranks more.”
Thor groaned. “Don’t remind me. Who are all of you? I have already given our names.”

@godlyfantasy12 NOOO, PAX!!!!! 😭 At least he has Riker 🥺
And yea, they disappeared, along with Leo’s wife and girls 😅
Riker
He groaned.
That had hurt.
Riker shifted, trying to get a feel of where he was.
Hard, cold floor. Sounds echoed.
He was probably in a big, mostly empty room.
He couldn’t see anything…it was too dark.
But he did hear a whimper.
Riker slowly rose to his feet, ignoring the pain in his back from his injury. “…Who’s there? Who else fell down here? Say something so I can find you…”
Leon
Riker and Paxton had been there one moment, gone the next.
But they continued forward. They had to.
Lily cried, but Iris held her tight and tried to sooth her.
Everyone walked in silence.
None of them knew what to do…what to say.
And most certainly, none of them knew where Riker and Paxton had gone.
Elias tugged on Leon’s coat. “Daddy…I’m tired…”
April 26, 2023 at 3:15 pm #141443@freedomwriter76
Paxton
Cold…
Dark…
Paxton’s hands slid across the unfamiliar, scratchy stone surrounding him, whimpering at the newfound cuts on his skin. His eyes watered at the soreness all over his body, and the sudden chill that swept through him.
He curled tightly around himself, fingers shaking. Reaching. Groping in the darkness for something-anything-familiar.
Ember…?
Wulf…?
Another pitiful whimper.
A voice broke the silence, shrieking through his skull and making his head pound. He couldn’t understand the words…only that it brought pain.
Too much…
Where was she?
His eyes searched the darkness for any sign of his friend. Her comforting touch. Her warmth.
A groan left his lips as he spotted her, a single paw jutting from the rubble. His hand reached out, a single finger sliding against her coarse fur.
He let out a sigh, feeling himself relax at her touch.
Safe…
“-o? Hello-? Is any-oh…oh my-” The voice cut off, going soft, “Paxton…? Oh, Paxton…”
Paxton recognized it, but he couldn’t quite put a name or face to it. His eyes tilted up, looking into the blurry eyes of the man towering over him. He cowered slightly, clutching Hope’s paw as best he could.

@freedomwriter76
Bucky’s awesome! Although he wouldn’t know N’nesha’s actual name yet at this point, as she has only been introduced as Neshe and Nele, because she’s trying to only use one speak. (One speak meaning regular one line linear speech, as opposed to what she’s used to of speaking with to lines of speech fused into one called two speak.)
He is perfect in Justice, yet He is perfect in Mercy, even when we fail Him. For this, He is good.
April 26, 2023 at 4:15 pm #141454Ahhhh Corvina!!!!! 😭

@godlyfantasy12 Aww, Corvina, Pax!!!! 😭🥺
Riker
Paxton cowered, holding onto his stuffed bear, whimpering still.
“Paxton…it’s me. It’s Riker. I won’t hurt you…shhhh…”
He slowly sat down on the floor near Paxton.
Not like he had a light to use to look around anyhow.
“Paxton…it’s okay…can I…can I help you…?”
April 26, 2023 at 4:31 pm #141466@freedomwriter76
Paxton
Paxton hid behind his arms, squeezing his eyes shut.
“Paxton…I won’t hurt you…” Riker whispered.
Riker…that was his name.
Ember’s friend.
Ember…he could trust Ember…
Paxton opened his eyes a bit, slowly shifting to see the man a bit better. Riker reached out to touch him gently, but the boy recoiled, whimpering. Riker withdrew.
“That’s alright, I don’t have to touch you.”
Paxton looked over to where Hope lay, half buried in the rubble. Riker followed his gaze, eyes lighting.
“Oh.” He whispered. Gently, like he was touching glass, he unburied the stuffy, lifting it from the mess of stone, and outstretched it to the boy.
Shakily, Paxton took the bear in his arms, squeezing it tight. He swayed from side to side and gently pushed one of the bear’s ears back and forth as he sat up, legs crossed. He smiled, burying his face in the bear’s now musty fur.
Riker smiled, still refraining from touching him.
A few moments of silence passed before the man spoke again.
“Are you alright to continue…?”
Paxton slowly nodded, standing to his feet. He clutched Hope tight, still rubbing one of her ears between his forefinger.
“Th…th-thank y-you…” He whispered.
