Quantum Catz: AM: ::it’s been a week since she came to visit Jack and Amara is still in Marquis. She hasn’t talked to anyone except for a few men who have visited her at the inn. This afternoon though, she leaves the inn and wanders in to the guard house, sitting rather provocatively on the desk and smiling at the guard:: I'm looking for Harry Chalmers


yarnkittymon: : ::the guard frowns--he's actually more of a button-up type, who suspects Amara of being up to trouble anyway; mutters:: Yeah? What's your business with him?

Quantum Catz: AM: ::smirks when she sees him frown:: We're old friends.

> 
yarnkittymon: : ::coldly:: Well, I'd be happy to tell him you stopped by.

Quantum Catz: AM: Oh but I'd really like to see him right now. I know he'd be grateful to see me


yarnkittymon: : ::the guard shakes his head:: Sorry, lady; it's his day off.

Quantum Catz: AM: Oh, shame. Do you know where I could find him?


yarnkittymon: : ::the guard shakes his head again:: Sorry.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::leans towards him, probably a bit too close for his liking:: Don't worry. I have my ways. I'm sure i'll find him


yarnkittymon: : Good luck, lady.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::a bit of annoyance flashes across her eyes at the man's attitude but she stands up anyway:: I hope you're friendlier to everyone else who comes in here. It's not particularly endearing. And i hear you have been having trouble with people going off and ignoring the guards


yarnkittymon: : ::the guard frowns:: It's not your concern. And I daresay if a suspect came in here asking where *you* were, I wouldn't tell *him* that either.

Quantum Catz: AM: Oh, you could send him right my way. I can deal with my own problems, thank you, dear

yarnkittymon: : ::the guard just shakes his head:: Good day, miss.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::strides out of the guard house and then leans against the wall, frowning; she had hoped Harry would be at work to save her the effort of having to find him::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::is shopping for a new shirt, of all things; in fact, if Amara looks over, she might see him through the shop window::

Quantum Catz: AM: ::notices Harry and grins; murmurs to herself:: Oh dear, that guard would be so disappointed to know you let yourself be found so easily


yarnkittymon: HR: ::inside the shop, brings a pastel green shirt to the clerk:: This one will do.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::moves towards the shop, smiling::

yarnkittymon: HR:  ::has been smiling at the clerk, who was flirting with him a bit.  His smile vanishes when he sees Amara through the door, though, and he almost moves to try to hide behind the shirt.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::sees Harry's reaction and grins, entering the shop:: Harry, dear - it's been far too long

yarnkittymon: HR: ::cringes, quickly paying the woman, murmuring:: Keep the change. ::tries to head outside::


Quantum Catz: AM: ::reaches for his arm to walk with him with her hand hooked round his elbow:: Well that's no way to react to an old friend


yarnkittymon: HR: *Friend*?

Quantum Catz: AM: Well, there are better words but i thought you might like to keep up the law-abiding facade


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: What do you want?

Quantum Catz: AM: Well, see, last time i checked you still owe me money, dear


yarnkittymon: HR: It's not my fault you set me up, you know.

Quantum Catz: AM: You and your little friend knew what you were getting into when you started working with me


yarnkittymon: HR: If I turned you in right now...

Quantum Catz: AM: I'd escape in five minutes and I'd have to hurt you before I left town
yarnkittymon: HR: You know we have freaks that can take away powers, right?

Quantum Catz: AM: Any of them happen to be less than five minutes from here?


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: So what do you want?

Quantum Catz: AM: I don't know really. Now that I've gone and saved darling Jack I'm a bit bored


yarnkittymon: HR: ::coldly:: If you're bored, there's an opening in the guard.

Quantum Catz: AM: Oh, I'll be going back to LA soon enough - I certainly couldn't *live* here


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs:: It's not so bad.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::wrinkles her nose:: Sure. No business here though. Is that why you ended up in the guard? Get fed up with not making any money?


yarnkittymon: HR: It can be fun, you know.

Quantum Catz: AM: Hmm, arresting a kid for murder and then finding out that you can't even hold him. Then, to top it all off, having his family solve the case for you. I'm sure you must feel so satisfied with your work


yarnkittymon: HR: The murder was outside of our jurisdiction anyway. We were doing the other guard a favor, keeping him.

Quantum Catz: AM: I'm sure there are a few people who would still like to hang the boy if they could


yarnkittymon: HR: And as a guard, I can help keep that from happening.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::smirks:: Sure


yarnkittymon: HR: Look, are you going to level with me or not?

Quantum Catz: AM: Maybe I just want to see you sweat for a while


yarnkittymon: HR: Long enough?

Quantum Catz: AM: ::smirks:: I could drag this out for days. I don't think the guard on duty just now liked me very much


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs:: You *do* look like you're up to trouble.

Quantum Catz: AM: Me? Up to trouble? I came here to help Jack


yarnkittymon: HR: Right. And I'm sure it was you that saved him.

Quantum Catz: AM: Well, I did help. I have to say, it was a nice ending - considering I thought i was coming here to repay my debt to his widow


yarnkittymon: HR: Glad he didn't die.

Quantum Catz: AM: Jack was never meant to play with the big fish. He can talk the talk but he always had too much to lose


yarnkittymon: HR: ::in a low voice:: Word is he's going straight now.

Quantum Catz: AM: Mm, so I've heard


yarnkittymon: HR: ::looks around:: Anyway, you want to talk at my place?

Quantum Catz: AM: You act like you're in a rush to get rid of me, Harry


yarnkittymon: HR: ::sarcastically:: Where'd you get that idea?

Quantum Catz: AM: ::smirks:: You were the one who came to me originally.


yarnkittymon: HR: And you talked too much then, too.

Quantum Catz: AM: I never rush into anything. Playing the game is part of the fun. And you'll remember I'm the one with a mansion in LA


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs:: If I had a power like yours, I would've hit the big time too.

Quantum Catz: AM: ::just smiles:: Perhaps


yarnkittymon: HR: ::puts his hands in his pockets, wondering when she'll get to the point::

Quantum Catz: AM: ::smiles at Harry:: I think i want to go to your house now


yarnkittymon: HR: ::scowls:: Yeah, Stephanie will *love* that.


Quantum Catz: AM: Get over yourself - i don't want to talk at the inn, we'll go to your house

yarnkittymon: HR: ::heads that way, silently, scowling::


Quantum Catz: AM: You should be grateful, Harry dear, there are worse fates than having to do me a favour


yarnkittymon: HR: Depends on how the favor goes.


Quantum Catz: AM: There are worse favours i could ask for owing me money


yarnkittymon: HR: ::goes to unlock his door, but the doorknob feels loose; he cringes, realizing it's unlocked:: If that's Stephanie...::cautiously tries the door::


Quantum Catz: AM: I could see if you like ::moves blithely through the door::


maeveowens: MV: ::is pacing inside Harry's place but stops still when Amara walks through the door. Her eyes widen then she smirks:: Well, I guess that answered my question.


Quantum Catz: AM: Aw, and here was me going to be nice and leave you to your family ::grins:: Now you can help pay off your debt too


yarnkittymon: HR: ::cringes:: Sorry, Maeve, but...breaking and entering...


maeveowens: MV: :she looks between the two, glaring and not sure who to answer first. Her gaze settles on Amara:: It's been a while. I would think the required amount of time to pay a debt would be expired by now. ::she turns to Harry:: And it was better than standing outside.


Quantum Catz: AM: There is no limitation on debts to me


yarnkittymon: HR: ::looks at Maeve, shrugging:: I told her it wasn't

maeveowens: MV: Perhaps there should be since I'm not really in to that line of work anymore. ::she glances at Harry:: I take it you weren't convincing enough then.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::goes to sit on a chair, stretching back:: Well i did help save your life - you should be grateful i don't consider it's that you owe me


yarnkittymon: HR: ::cracks his knuckles:: What do you want?


maeveowens: MV: ::raises an eyebrow:: Would it make a difference? ::she shakes her head, hesitating but then heads for the door:: Really am sorry but no thank you. ::she looks at Harry:: She can't really make you can she?


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs, keeping his mouth closed::


maeveowens: MV: I wouldn't risk everything you have here for her games Harry.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::looks up:: I don't play games - you don't want to aggravate me maeve


yarnkittymon: HR: Let's leave her out of this, okay? As you said, she has a family.


Quantum Catz: AM: It's not my fault she's being irritating


maeveowens: MV: ::she rolls her eyes:: Well, let me fix that for you. ::she looks at Harry:: Thanks Harry and good luck. :::she shakes her head, still thinking he should walk away too::


Quantum Catz: AM: ::runs a hand through her hair, pretending to ignore Maeve:: You know, it's so easy to kill a child...they're so small and helpless, they can't even push you away


yarnkittymon: HR: ::his eyes go wide, and he instinctively reaches for his dagger::


maeveowens: MV: ::she pauses, tensing, and slowly turns to look back at Amara. She's rather pale now; gruffly:: You wouldn't dare.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::frowns:: My best friend is in danger - i'll do whatever it takes


yarnkittymon: HR: ::can't resist smirking:: Hey, Maeve; there's news--shadow-girl has friends.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::stands up, moving rather threateningly towards Harry:: Would you like to make that joke again? With me within reach of your heart, perhaps?


maeveowens: MV: ::she glances at Harry; flatly:: Probably threatened them into it.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: So what do you want from us?


Quantum Catz: AM: Lennie is hiding from me - i sent some guys to find her but she used her ability on them and now they're useless


yarnkittymon: HR: And who's Lennie?


maeveowens: MV: ::her eyes widen, and she shakes her head:: No way. I'm thinking this Lennie has a good reason not to be found by you and why would I want to end up like your goons?


Quantum Catz: AM: She's in danger and she doesn't know it - i need to protect her


maeveowens: MV: ::smirks:: Sounds like she's doing just fine to me. ::looks at Harry:: Maybe we could hire her. ::points at Amara like this Lennie could take care of her for them::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::ignores Maeve:: And is there a reason you can't reach her? I reckon she can't hurt you if you're all ghostly?


Quantum Catz: AM: She can still influence me even then and i can't risk her messing with my head, no one else will try to help her


maeveowens: MV: You should find someone who can resist her powers Amara! How do you expect us to have *any* luck?


Quantum Catz: AM: ::goes to sit down again:: That was partly the reason i went to harry - i know nothing about this godforsaken island or the people on it


maeveowens: MV: ::smirks:: The only other person I know who had a power like that doesn't have it anymore because he abused it.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::nods, frowning:: I would've guessed you'd be the best to go after her anyway, Amara.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::makes a face:: She'll see me, mess with my head and run a mile


maeveowens: MV: Then why do you want to help her? She obviously doesn't want your help!


Quantum Catz: AM: Why i want to help her is none of your business


maeveowens: MV: I think it is if I'm risking my life, and my mind in order to do it!


yarnkittymon: HR: ::grimaces:: What are we supposed to do, then? Tell her she's in danger? You couldn't just send her a letter?


Quantum Catz: AM: I don't care what you do - i need her alive and i don't know how to do that on this damn island!


yarnkittymon: HR: ::exhales:: Well, who's after her?


maeveowens: MV: ::puts her hand son her hips:: And? You want us to play body guard? For someone who isn't even going to let us near her!?


Quantum Catz: AM: She might let Harry near her - she's trying to play straight ::sighs:: Or she was the last time i saw her


yarnkittymon: HR: ::nods:: So I just go to her and say she's in danger, try to put her under protection?


maeveowens: MV: ::she frowns:: Does that mean I get to stay here?


Quantum Catz: AM: Like i said, she won't listen to me


maeveowens: MV: Hello? If she isn't going to listen to me then tell me now so I can go home. ::glares at Amara:: Alone.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: Careful, Maeve.


Quantum Catz: AM: I've decided you're involved now. You never know, she might like you more than Harry -of course, if you two can miracle up someone immune to her then that's great


yarnkittymon: HR: ::looks completely baffled:: So she's able to get into people's minds and change their emotions?


maeveowens: MV: ::her eyes widen and she shakes her head again:: Do we have a time limit because I think I'd rather hunt someone down for you.


Quantum Catz: AM: She controls light - she can fill your soul with darkness -make you depressed in other words


yarnkittymon: HR: ::whistles:: I'll bet that'd even get Jack.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::makes a face:: That's what i figured


maeveowens: MV: ::she cringes:: Great.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::considers for a long time; quietly:: We could preemptively take her powers away, but I doubt you'd like that...


Quantum Catz: AM: ::Runs a hand through her hair, not saying anything::


maeveowens: MV: She isn't saying anything so I think we should take that as yes.


Quantum Catz: AM: I'll do anything to keep her alive


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs; darkly:: Well, whatever we have to do, then.


maeveowens: MV: ::watches Amara, wondering how this one person got to mean so much to her. She shakes her head again and moves towards the door:: Don't know how I'm going to explain this to the others. ::sigh:: Much less make them stay back.


Quantum Catz: AM: Tell them i'll kill them - and i'll know if that cat's following us


yarnkittymon: HR: ::cringes, rather glad that he doesn't have anyone to worry about him, with Stephanie out of town anyway::


maeveowens: MV: ::she glares at Amara:: That's one way to ensure that they come! ::she yanks the door open:: And I'm going so you better not touch them!


yarnkittymon: HR: I'll pack some food, Maeve. We can get a horse. And I'll hear where she is.


Quantum Catz: AM: ::stretches out on the chair again, not saying anything else::


maeveowens: MV: ::softly:: That's not going to convince them to stay out of it either. ::she sighs heavily and heads out the door::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: I'll go alone if you'd rather!


maeveowens: MV: ::turns back to Harry, looking nervous; whispers:: Do you think she'll do it?


yarnkittymon: HR: ::gets up and walks over to Maeve; quietly:: She's ruthless.


maeveowens: MV: ::she pales a bit more; weakly:: Then I guess you going alone isn't an option.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: If I take care of it, she'd forgive you.


maeveowens: MV: But will she give you the chance to try before... ::she shudders::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs; quietly:: I guess we can't risk that.


maeveowens: MV: ::she grimaces and turns away again:: I'll be back... alone with any luck.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::sighs, and gets to work packing::

maeveowens: MV: ::walks home, looking like she's just been suckered punched. She goes in to the house, looking around::


Quantum Catz: EK: ::is heading upstairs, though doesn't turn to look at her, he's been rather ignoring everyone since he got home::


maeveowens: MV: ::frown at him then moves to follow, trying to figure out if she should just tell him and run::


Quantum Catz: EK: ::just keeps going up the stairs::


maeveowens: MV: ::she looks around then cringes. Isaac would just kill her when she gets back. She sighs heavily and heads up the stairs, looking for Isaac::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::is upstairs with Olivia::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::is playing with Isaac, reaching out for his hand::


maeveowens: MV: ::she peaks in, her heart breaking almost. She stands there, watching, content to stay there until he looks up::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::looks up when he hears Maeve and walks over to her, Olivia in his arms:: Hey, enjoy the walk?


maeveowens: MV: ::she tries to smile but it doesn't quite meet her eyes. She shakes her head; softly:: It turned up a ghost from the past that I was hoping would be long gone. ::she takes Olivia's little hand, cooing softly to her and generally avoiding the issue::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::looks at Maeve, and giggles::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::frowns:: What're you talking about?


maeveowens: MV: ::that coaxes a bigger smile out of her until Isaac says something. She sighs.:: I have to leave. For a while. ::she bites her lip, wondering how much she should say::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::still smiling, though she's starting to look a little worried too::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::rather disbelieving:: Leave?


maeveowens: MV: ::she plays with Olivia, avoiding Isaac's eyes:: I owe someone a favor and they're back to collect. Harry is going.


Quantum Catz: IS: And that makes it better? You were *dying* barely a week ago


maeveowens: MV: ::she cringes:: I don't have a choice Isaac. ::she looks back at Olivia, worriedly. She reaches out to gently stroke a finger down her face::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::turns to try to look at Maeve's finger::


maeveowens: MV: ::she smiles weakly and reaches under her chin, tickling her softly::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::giggles::


Quantum Catz: IS: Maeve...I need you here. You know what Eli's been like since he came home, he's hardly said a word to any of us in days. I can't cope with something happening to you as well


maeveowens: MV: ::she finally looks up; whispers:: They threatened Olivia. I want to be here Isaac, but I don't have a choice.


Quantum Catz: IS: :: winces at her words:: But what if something happens to you? If they could really hurt Olivia...what's to stop them hurting you?


maeveowens: MV: ::she takes a deep breath, trying not to let even her eyes water:: I don't know but I can't give them a reason too. She even threatened all of you if any of you decided to follow.  Eli included and apparently she'll know if he follows even as a cat.


yarnkittymon: OL: ::her smile fades at everyone's serious tones::


maeveowens: MV: ::sadly:: Oh come on sweetie, you don't have to look so serious.


Quantum Catz: IS: ::sighs:: Under normal circumstances, he'd see that as a challenge


maeveowens: MV: ::she cringes:: Don't even tell them Isaac. Just tell them I went to visit someone.


yarnkittymon: OL: ::starts to fuss::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::rocks Olivia:: Sshh, honey, it's okay


yarnkittymon: OL: ::makes a little dissatisfied cry, her eyes on Isaac:

:
maeveowens: MV: ::she grimaces, feeling like a traitor. She turns away, and makes herself go throw some things together all the while looking like she's going to be sick::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::keeps rocking Olivia:: How long will you be gone?


maeveowens: MV: ::softly:: I don't know. I don't even have a guess... ::she shrugs helplessly::


Quantum Catz: IS: Then how will we know... ::winces:: How will we know that you're okay?


maeveowens: MV: ::she stops, thinks about it then turns to look at him.:: I can try to write?


Quantum Catz: IS: We could ask Guy to check...where you are...but... Maeve, you can't just go on your own


maeveowens: MV: Harry is going and he's the only other one aloud to go. ::she looks back:: And if you ask Guy make sure he knows not to show his face. If this is messed up because of me I don't want to know what she'll do to me or you or Olivia. ::she shivers::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::sighs:: Isn't there any way to stop her? Who is this woman?


maeveowens: MV: ::quietly:: You met her. And no. There is no stopping someone that walks through walls.


Quantum Catz: IS: Jack's friend? But she helped save you


yarnkittymon: OL: ::starts to fuss again::


maeveowens: MV: You can't predict what Amara will or will not do. She has her own agenda and her own rules.


Quantum Catz: IS: But what does she want you for? ::rocks Olivia, though he's rather distracted by Maeve::


maeveowens: MV: ::she throws the things she's pulled out into a bag and closes it. She turns back to her husband.:: I guess it amuses her. How should I know? She has it in her head now that I am going and there's no changing it.


Quantum Catz: IS: ::looks worried:: Well just...don't give her any reason to decide that she doesn't want you around anymore


maeveowens: MV: ::smiles a little; teasingly:: Are you implying that I would be sarcastic or otherwise annoying in anyway?


Quantum Catz: IS: ::a weak smile crosses his face, though it soon fades:: Well you were to that guard


maeveowens: MV: ::she moves closer to give Olivia a quick kiss; softly.:: I'll behave.


yarnkittymon: OL: ::looks up at Maeve with serious eyes::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::looking like he desperately wants to tell her not to go:: Just come back safe


maeveowens: MV: ::she gently rubs Olivia's cheek then looks up at Isaac.:: I will. You know it'll take a lot to keep me away. ::she suppresses a shudder, figuring this woman has a power to make that very untrue::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::nods, though he can't help but imagine the worst::


maeveowens: MV: ::she reaches up to kiss his cheek; gently:: I'll be back soon. I promise.


Quantum Catz: IS: ::shifts Olivia so he's supporting her with one arm and hugs Maeve tightly with the other::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::fusses again::


maeveowens: MV: ::clings to him tightly for a moment before turning to Olivia again:: Shhh little one. It's gonna be okay. Don't fuss. ::she gives Olivia her finger again, hoping it'll calm her::


yarnkittymon: OL: ::grabs Maeve's finger with her own little hands, not wanting to let go::


maeveowens: MV: ::she fights tears:: Oh little one, come on now. I'm doing this for you. ::she wiggles her finger, waiting for another giggle::


arnkittymon: OL: ::is puzzled when the finger moves, and she lets go with one hand::


maeveowens: MV: ::forces a teary eyed smile and leans forward to gently kiss her little head again. She looks up at Isaac then:: I'll be back. ::she backs out the door, clutching her bag::


Quantum Catz: IS: ::closes his eyes for a moment and takes a rather shuddery breath as Maeve leaves, as if trying to hold himself together; hugs Olivia tightly::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::has his things packed and has secured a horse; is waiting back at his own house::


maeveowens: MV: ::she hurries back and by the time she reaches Harry's again, she's under control of her emotions. Though she looks rather coldly at Amara.:: I'm re

yarnkittymon: HR: ::looks closely at Amara; he didn't think she was going::


Quantum Catz: AM: ::shakes her head:: I can't go - like i told you before, i can't risk Lennie affecting me. You find a way to get close to her and get her to come back to me and your debt's repaid


yarnkittymon: HR: And if she attacks you for your trouble?


maeveowens: MV: ::she frowns, not trusting the woman to stay here alone and so close to her family::


Quantum Catz: AM: ::a flash of hurt crosses her eyes but she hides it with her usual smile:: That she's willing to let me help her for the duration is all i care about


maeveowens: MV: And what if she messes with out minds? I think I'd rather just find a way to scrounge up what I owe you.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::sighs, trying to think of someone who could help them::


Quantum Catz: AM: You don't get that option. And, hopefully she'll hear you out first


maeveowens: MV: ::scowls at her then turns to Harry:: Come on Harry. Lets go coerce this poor woman in to speaking to her *friend*.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::nods grimly, moving to help Maeve on the horse::


maeveowens: MV: ::she smirks at Harry but rather than fuss and waste time she accepts the help and climbs on;:


Quantum Catz: AM: ::hesitates:: Tell her I'm sorry about Martha. But she should know i would never do anything without a reason


yarnkittymon: HR: ::looks rather grimly at Amara, then turns his attention back to the horse:: All right.
maeveowens: MV: ::she grimaces but manages not to make a smart remark::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly, as they start off:: She doesn't even know where Lenore is.


maeveowens: MV: Does she know her last known location?


yarnkittymon: HR: Supposedly Everettburg. ::sighs:: We might...want to ask Jack. Amara won't hurt him.


maeveowens: MV: ::she cringes.:: Do you think she'd consider it cheating on my part? As long as she leaves my family alone...


yarnkittymon: HR: She doesn't care who we get to help us.


maeveowens: MV: ::mutters:: She cared if it was "that cat".


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shrugs:: We need help, Maeve. I'll ask him, even if you want to stay back.


maeveowens: MV: ::she shakes her head.:: I'll go with you.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::nods, hurrying to Libby and Jack's house, his hands in his pockets--he's still dressed in the ridiculous uniform of the guard::


maeveowens: MV: ::she sighs and gets back down from the horse. She remembers to tie it back to the post before hurrying after Harry::


Quantum Catz: JK: ::has been getting stronger every day since he woke up, though he still feels tired more easily than normal; just now he's sitting in the living room playing with Milo::


yarnkittymon: LB: ::is watching her husband and son at play, though she's busy with the mending she's taken in::


maeveowens: MV: ::hesitates then knocks on the door::


yarnkittymon: LB: ::looks quickly at her husband:: I'll get it. ::sets her mending down and gets up::


yarnkittymon: LB: ::answers the door:: Maeve?


Quantum Catz: JK: ::looks toward the door, though he doesn't get up::


maeveowens: MV: ::smiles weakly at Libby; softly:: Hey. ::pauses:: We need to speak with Jack... if he's up to it.


yarnkittymon: HR: ::nods grimly::


yarnkittymon: 


maeveowens: MV: ::she grimaces:: We've got to take care of something and we think Jack might know the person we're trying to find.


yarnkittymon: LB: ::cringes, then goes back to the living room:: Maeve and Harry need you. They...look like they're in trouble.


Quantum Catz: JK: ::hesitates and then stands up, ruffling Milo's hair before he goes to the door:: What is it?
maeveowens: MV: ::under her breath:: That's putting it mildly::


yarnkittymon: LB: ::goes over to entertain Milo, though she looks rather worried::


Quantum Catz: JK: ::frowns and looks at Harry:: come on, what's going on?


maeveowens: MV: ::she grimaces again but since he's staring Harry down she keeps quiet::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::quietly:: Do you know anything about a friend of Amara's named Lenore?


yarnkittymon: LB: ::bristles to hear Amara's name::


Quantum Catz: JK: ::laughs weakly:: The ice woman's Achilles heel. She'd do anything for Lenore


maeveowens: MV: ::she frowns:: Why? Amara was never one to make friends or so I had thought. Does Lenore even like her?


yarnkittymon: HR: ::listens intently::


Quantum Catz: JK: She used to live with her. Amara paid for her to go to college. 


yarnkittymon: HR: Did they have a falling-out?


maeveowens: MV: ::her eyes widen:: She did?


Quantum Catz: JK: Last i heard, Lenore was going straight, which Amara was happy about, but she was moving here with a girl called Martha, which rather annoyed her ::shrugs:: She was still talking to her though


yarnkittymon: HR: ::nods slowly:: And you know anyone who...might have a chance of bringing Lenore in?


Quantum Catz: JK: ::frowns:: Why are you doing Amara's dirty work? If she upset Lenore she should fix it herself


maeveowens: MV: Lenore won't speak to her and has messed up anyone Amara has sent. ::she winces::


yarnkittymon: HR: ::very quietly:: And we...owe Amara.


Quantum Catz: JK: ::frowns:: That woman...she thinks she can get anything with threats


yarnkittymon: HR: ::grimaces:: She'll go after Olivia.


maeveowens: MV: ::swallows hard, paling again; softly:: And I don't trust her not to. We need help from someone Jack.


Quantum Catz: JK: She ain't likely to. I've not ever heard of her hurting someone who didn't deserve it 


yarnkittymon: HR: ::smirks:: Then she'll probably hurt us, at least, for crossing her.


maeveowens: MV: ::looks hopeful for a moment but then shakes her head:: She'd be doing it to hurt me. Maybe not kill her but she could disappear with Olivia easily enough.


Quantum Catz: JK: ::rubs his eyes for a moment, thinking:: In town...the only person i can think of is maybe Kizzie. It's a long shot but her power's the closest thing to light here


yarnkittymon: HR: ::shakes his head:: We can't bring her into this.


maeveowens: MV: ::frowns:: Kizzie? ::she shakes her head:: Kizzie isn't a fighter Jack.. would she stand a chance against Lenore?


Quantum Catz: JK: The one thing you can trust about Amara is she'd never let a friend become like her. Lenore ain't a killer. 


yarnkittymon: HR: ::cringes:: I don't like it, Jack. But...I'll defer to your judgment

.
maeveowens: MV: She said the others she sent were useless though. I don't want her to turn Kizzie into a depressed nobody!
