Cero | M: Lev, Zaphara(ind), Arlin, Malaki, Finley(ind) "Go ahead with that. I'm bringing my wife and Dakota to one of my houses along the outskirts. One of my scouts found her. She's wandering the park in your area. However, take caution when approaching this Zaphara, she could be used as a trap." Lev said and Cero narrowed his eyes. He gave a curt nod to Lev before saying, "I will contact you once this passes over and I have the mutants in the area to safety. I will not go myself to get Zaphara in case it is a trap. Be safe Lev." He cut the connection with Lev before reaching out to Arlin. Slipping into his mind, he said, "Ibex has sent a message out. I'm sending you some coordinates to a safe house northwest of you. Take Flame and your child there until this passes. If you can get in contact with any other mutant, do so." He sent this message to Flame also, but she seemed preoccupied with her baby.
He reached out his mind then, searching for others before finding Sky's and a man that was with her. He slipped into both of their minds, becoming an illusion in front of them. "Make your way southeast to a safe house. I will send coordinates shortly." Sky looked at him hard before recognition flashed in her griffin eyes. "We need to pick up Shadow first, he's on the way there." Cero's illusion gave a curt nod, "Be fast Sky, use the jetstreams. They will be the best chance you have right now." Sky nodded to him before he disappeared from her sight. He then sent out a message to Shadow and the man with him, "Sky is coming to pick you up. Be at ready, we don't have much time." Cutting off his connection finally, he called in Rocky. "Yes?" Rocky said, coming in. "Go down to the park and watch Zaphara. I fear it might be a trap if she's alive." Cero said, ignoring the shocked expression on Rocky's face before the man nodded and disappeared. Cero moved quickly, he had his own safe house to get to. Preferably the one that Sky and Shadow would be heading for as they were the closest.
Another strand came alive just as he got out the door. A new mutant. He seemed closer to the west border safehouse for Nevada so Cero would head in that direction. Summoning his panther, he set off at a fast pace as he threaded into the man's mind. Blade was the boy's name. He would have to be careful so he wouldn't scare the boy but he had to get him to move. An illusion of Cero appeared before the man, his light blue eyes pinning onto him as Cero spoke through his mind, "I know you do not know me but you need to get to a safehouse. There is one just west of you. Ibex will be searching for each of us in nine minutes tops. Move to the safehouse, we need to get you to safety." Edited at October 8, 2021 11:05 PM by Fangsoffire

Sky | M: Malaki, Cero(ind) After Cero's message, she adjusted her position. "That was one of the mutants, a mind-walker who must be nearby. Once we pick up Shadow, we will go straight to the safe house. Got it? Now hang on tightly, I won't let you fall." Sky said, straps appearing on her saddle, wrapping around his legs. One of the things Amber had left her, the saddle where she practiced using her transfer powers. Sky launched forward, flapping hard into the sky, going into a straight vertical.
Flapping hard, she went straight into the jetstreams. Wind buffeted her and she struggled to hold herself upright before she found the right wind strand. Lunging forward, she got thrown forward and she tilted her wings to go faster as she soared higher into the faster jetstreams. Also known as wing-breakers. Sky almost laughed right then, Burning Flame had taught her how to navigate and fly through these. Tilting her wings slightly, she got launched into a different direction until she stayed straight, going a beautiful southeast. "You good back there?" She screeched over the winds as she watched the land fly away underneath of her. Towns disappeared in the span of seconds as the wind whipped through her fur.

Malaki: Mentions: Sky Air feels a little thin up here! It's a good thing I'm in good shape, otherwise I'd be wheezing more than a chainsmoker diagnosed with polio! Malaki held on tightly to the saddle, not opening his eyes for even a moment as Sky flew through the air. "You good back there?" She asked him. Malaki gave her a simple thumbs up before white-knuckling the saddle once again. I swear if I have to put up with this every time I fly, I might as well just let Ibex experiment of me so they can give me wings... The air rushed around him, making Malaki know what it would feel like to be a plane. I... hate... everything... about... this! He could hear Benny also object to this experience, marking a rare time both he and Malaki would agree on something.

Sky | M: Malaki Sky saw the thumbs up before he hung onto the saddle again. Not a flyer, well he was going to have to get used to it for now. Screeching, she said to Malaki, "Squeeze with your knees and hang on tight, the exit is a bit fast!" She flapped up once, going upside down for a couple seconds before plunging down. One wing tucked in while the other cupped the wind, making them go into a spiraling plummet. Once they reached the thousand foot mark, she released the other wing, making a fast but slowly leveling out dive. By the 300 foot mark, they were leveled out but still going fast. Tucking a wing again, she dived down before coming to a fast landing in the park. "Shadow!" Sky screeched before seeing the branches of the trees start pointing in one direction. She trotted forwards until she came to Shadow and another man. She stopped by Shadow who simply asked, "Please tell me you have coordinates. Cero simply told us you were picking us up."
"I have coordinates. Hop on," Sky said, brushing Shadow's side before turning her head, "Malaki, are you okay back there?" She asked, seeing him still hanging onto the saddle.

Blade I I Mentions: Cero and Nyx (Ind.)
Blade had recieved the bird message and was freaking out. He had clawed a few lines along one side of his face, which were bleeding from his nail marks. Suddenly some guy appeared in front of him and he heard the guy's voice in his head. He shook his head, trying to rid the guy from his mind. The guy's words intregued him though, he was wondering if this man had reached the woman if she would be there. Blade's eyes changed intoa bright firery orange and he turned his head slightly, thinking. "Is Levushka there?" He asked suddenly, the name leaving a bad taste in his mouth, but he was so good at faking it that he fifn't even have a reaction. "He's my friend, I want to make sure that he is okay." He said, lying through his teeth, but doing so with such ease that it didn't seem like he was at all. He ignored the blood stains that were all along the side of his head and had ran down his arm. He looked wounded too, as he was wounded.

Cero | M: Blade, Lev(ind) Cero blinked at the question, "Is Levushka there? He's my friend, I want to make sure that he is okay." With a look in his mind, Cero could tell he was lying but at the moment, he didn't care. "Lev is moving to a safe house with two woman at the moment. We do not have the time to get to their safe house but will be meeting with them after this passes over. Follow me." Cero said through Blade's mind, having the illusion start walking at a fast pace towards the edge of town. Cero's panther was almost to the town itself, he would get to the safe house around the same time that his illusion and Blade would. Thankfully with training and border patrols, his familiar knew exactly where they were going so Cero could focus on Blade. He turned his attention back into Blade's mind, seeing through his eyes and his illusion's eyes. He had the illusion of himself turn around to make sure Blade was following before it would start walking again.

Blade I I Mentions: Cero and Nyx (Ind.)
Blade followed the hologram, limping pretty badly and cholding his broken arm close to his body. He still followed the man, with the hope that he could get to the woman and ensure her safety. He wondered if this hologram guy had a mother and/or father. His own father was a complete shitty bastard. He wished he didn't have a father to begin with. "Are we close? I need to be there. I need to see Levushka to make sure he's alright." Lies once again, but the desperation in his voice wasn't a lie. He just wans't desprate to see Lev, he was desprate to see the woman once again. He staggered to the side slightly, putting a hand to his bloody temple. He had a headache, but he'd just force it away.

Malaki: Mentions: Sky and Shadow Malaki wanted nothing more than to get off Sky and hug the ground, but it seems that she had to pick up a passenger. He saw Shadow walk over towards them and figured that he was one of Sky's friends. "Malaki, are you okay back there?" She asked. Malaki looked up at her and barely nodded, before turning his head to Shadow. "My name's Malaki, and I hate heights. Get on so we can get this over and done with." He said, absoultely drained of emotion as he prepared for yet another flight. "I'm a mutant, just like you. If you want to ask about me, hold your questions until after we stop flying." Malaki merely lowered his head and gave Sky the thumbs up, ready to go on another flight onboard Air Hell. Edited at October 8, 2021 11:48 PM by Shadow Hearts

Cero | M: Blade "Are we close? I need to be there. I need to see Levushka to make sure he's alright." Blade asked and Cero had the illusion look at the boy. "We are not going to the same safe house as Levushka. They are far away from us and you are injured." Cero could see that it wasn't Lev he was worried about. A face came into view as Cero looked deeper. "Nyx is with him, he will keep her safe. They should be moved to the safe house as we speak." The illusion rounded a corner, coming across a stretch of land. There seemed to be nothing in it until the illusion disappeared completely. Cero opened his eyes, finding that the panther had stopped. Getting off, he waved his hand, the illusion around the safe house coming down. He could see the boy now. "Quickly, I need to put the cover back on before it gets placed on the map," Cero said to Blade as he looked the boy over. "There is a first aid kit inside, I suggest you go use that, it looks like your arm is broken. But you most likely know that by now." Cero said, his eyes scanning the boy one more time before he whistled for his familiar. It trotted over to them before circling the perimeter, the illusion going up with ease. Cero started for the front door, making sure there was no cracks in the cover before propping the door open for Blade.

Shadow | M: Malaki, Sky, Finley "My name's Malaki, and I hate heights. Get on so we can get this over and done with. I'm a mutant, just like you. If you want to ask about me, hold your questions until after we stop flying." The man said and Shadow tilted his head towards him before chuckling, "I thought I sensed another one. We seem to picking them up everywhere aren't we Sky?" Sky nodded before extending a wing. Shadow waved a hand towards Malaki, calming his nerves and his energy threads relaxed ever so slightly. "You'll get used to it kid." Shadow said chuckling before getting on behind Malaki, "You can just pick up Finley, we need to go."
Sky huffed before taking off, picking up Finley before heading back into the sky. Shadow sighed, the winds strengthening her wings and moving her forward more smoothly. Sky growled appreciatively before soaring down to a large clearing. She circled once before diving in, the illusion disintegrating for a moment before reforming. She landed, "That wasn't too far from the park. You guys can get off now." She had placed Finley down gently before moving off, leaving him to his own thing. Shadow slid off of Sky's back giving her shoulder a pat before waiting patiently. This was routine by now. He tapped his cane twice waiting for Sky to lead him into the house.
