In This Day and Age

[~*~Obsidain butterfly~*~]

Usha said:

"I could take you to meet Bassarov right now if you wanted me to. He is the rebel leader and knows a lot about the world. He can help you out." I say to Butterfly.
I put sunblock on since my fair skin burns easily.

"sure sounds good to me" stands up of of the ground.

[Pakkanen]

"There has been less to do here since that android, Archetype, attacked the Eternal Light so I was resting. Do you need me for anything?" Pakkanen asks. His eyes survey Hedeon for some sign of his mood or motives. He closes them and backs agaist the wall.

[Usha]

"O.K. I will take you to his apartment and you can meet some other rebels. I'm sure it will help you out."

I take her hand and teleport her back to Helsinki and then lead her to Bassarov's apartment. We enter the apartment and I look around.

"Is anyone home?"

[Hedeon]

Hedeon takes a few steps inside, and closes the door behind him.

"Is something amiss, Pakkanen? Don't worry, I won't bite... Hard." He says, smiling, while taking a few more steps towards him. "Don't worry, Pakk." Hedeon says, remembering the nickname that Sasha uses for him. He brushes his hand against Pakkanen's cheek.

"You must be so lonely here..."

[Valodya Bassarov]

"Hello Usha, I haven't seen you for some time. Who is your new friend? Have you seen Brady lately?" Bassarov asks. Usha has always been a helpful healer to the rebels, and though he never talks to her very often, he is thankful for her past contributions to the rebels.

[Usha]

"This is my new friend Butterfly. She is a vampire and wants to become a rebel. And Brady is just fine. We were on a picnic."

[Pakkanen]

"I don't get lonely since I...s..serve you.." Pakkanen replies. He turns away from Hedeon, because he can't stand to look into his eyes.
"You look very different from other fairies. Your black skin and white hair. It is so exotic. You must be glad to finally be rid of that human form and those human ways." Pakkanen says without looking at him.

[Valodya Bassarov]

"Hello Butterfly, I am Valodya Bassarov, welcome to the rebels. It is a pleasure to meet you." Bassarov says to the newest rebel. He extends his hand to shake.
"I have always been fond of vampires. I usually get along well with them."

[Archetype 401]

Archetype 401 scans over his files, searching over his “Target: Blacksmith” missions file. He is currently restocking his weapons. Placing more rockets into their places within his chest cavity, and polishing his armor somewhat, it wouldn’t do to have an unseemly Android working for Red Infinity.

After preparing for his next departure, he checks the RI mainframe for any updated information to acquire for his new files.

Being now fully equipped and refueled, Archetype 401 opens a gateway to Capital City and immediately transports himself there, appearing in the same (now destroyed and debris filled) alley that he was able to place a tracer on Lady Blue, as well as capture Dinari Mark Dollar.

[Usha]

"His ex girlfriend Kaieka is a vampire. I hate her. She told me that she was going to turn me into a bearskin rug. She is really mean."

I start walking back to the door.

"I'll pick you up later Butterfly, but I forgot to tell Brady I was leaving."
I teleport back to the beach since as long as she is with Bassarov now there is no point sticking around.

[Hedeon]

Hedeon takes another few steps towards Pakkanen, placing his hands on opposite sides of him, and watches as Pakkanen's face pivots according to how Hedeon is looking at him.

Hedeon whispers into Pakkanen's ear.

"You're trembling."

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov cringes at Usha's comments. After what happened to Mischa last week, he would rather not think of Kaieka and the cruel things that she has done.

"Here, make yourself comfortable, Butterfly, can I get you anything to eat or drink?" Bassarov asks as he makes he way to the kitchen.
"I have some Siberian cherry juice. It is my favorite."

[Archetype 401]

The crunch of rubble under heavy metal can be heard clearly through the slightly deserted streets as the Android makes his way out of the alley and onto the main roads of the annexed Capital City.

His radars sweep the area constantly, small bleeps and bops can be heard as Archetype 401 locates friendly or affiliate targets. His motors hum softly as he walks down the street at a casual pace, his head moving from side to side as if looking up and down the street.

[Pakkanen]

This Hedeon is nothing like the Sasha that Pakkanen knew. Sasha was kind and lighthearted, for an anarchist weapons dealer that is. Hedeon is dark and his personality is forceful.
"It is my impression that...you don't mind."

["Zero" Americanski]

(I had dozed off, but yes I am in the apartment.)

I hear Mischa talking as I awaken. "I was trying to right a wrong between us. I love Valodya, but you do too and it'd be wrong for me not to help you in that respect. I'm glad it worked..." I say as I lean over the side of the chair and grab the carton of cigarettes I had bought for Mischa. "I wasn't sure if you'd be walking or not so I picked these up for you yesterday."
