She alighted almost silently on the roof of a nearby building. It was dusk, the breeze was crisp, and the temperature perfectly moderate, so she had opted out of her jacket. Tartarus lay below, silent and grim, a dark blot on the city. Somewhere in there, in one of those dark cells, was her target. Resa's wings twitched in anticipation, today was the day. She would get him out of there, they would both go into hiding, and find a way to escape the city. It wouldn't be easy, but she had waited years for this day. Her daughter had waited her entire life. Her expression softened a little at the thought of her little girl waiting obediently at home. 'I've gone to get dad, pack your things, and wait for me.' 'Will he recognise me mama?' She shook herself, that was enough of that, she had work to do. The light had faded enough for her to swoop down unseen into the exercise yard, she shrank back into the shadows, waiting for the guards to pass by. Tramp... tramp... tramp... Her fingers never left the trigger the whole time. The key was heavy around her neck, it had cost her a lot to get it, but it should open the main door. For the rest, there was her pick. Finally the guard had passed, and she darted across to the main door, fumbling for the key and pressing it into the hole. It didn't fit. Astounded, she turned it around and tried again, still nothing. Heart in her throat, she flung the key to the ground, very much aware of the ticking seconds. Where did it go wrong? Who had betrayed her? Resa was pressed against the cold stones, hardly daring to breathe, was this a trap? Edited by Shio, Dec 12 2011, 02:24 AM.

"Well...it seems my informant was right on the money." Emily stepped out from the shadows. "After seventeen years you finally show your face. Been a while. You look so...old." Emily herself had aged well. She was a bit taller and more mature looking than she had appeared as a teen. Her blond hair was tied up in a fancy but practical knot and she wore a tight-fitting business suit with a tight pencil skirt. Her shoes were a pair of sensible heels. On her tie was the Sigma symbol, a representation of her title. "You came for him...didn't you? An idiotic move. He's mine now. He loves me, you know. He says so all the time." She smirked. "He even adores little Caprice as if she was his own. He's forgotten about you." Elite began to enter the area, guns trained on the winged woman. "So you might as well die." |

Resa felt her heart freeze in her chest, she knew that voice, and she had known that some day she would have to face her. Turning slowly on her heel, she moulded her face into a smile, as though she were on television, complete with an airy wave in Emily's direction. "Hallo there, fancy seeing you here!" The breeze stirred her hair, still as silver as ever. "And my, you've grown quite nicely yourself. Very professional wouldn't you say?" Resa herself was only a little taller, leaner, than she had been. All evidence of puppy fat had disappeared, and other than a hint of wrinkles around her face not much had changed. Except her eyes. Despite her cheerful tone, no light ever seemed to reach them, and they had grown darker with age. "Tell me, what did you have to do to wring that out of him? Blind him? Torture him? What depraved methods did you sink to, Emily Pennington?" They weren't children anymore, this was for real. She was aware of the guns, but was fairly confident Emily wouldn't give the order to fire just yet, not until she rose to her bait, which should give her just the amount of time she needed. If she went for her gun, it would be all over, she had to be careful about this... "And what does your dear Arco think of your little games? Surely he wouldn't be pleased about you making Noah your toy, or are you just that desperate for attention?" She crushed the feelings of anger that rose in her breast at the thought of Noah being anyone's 'toy,' it wouldn't do to rise to her own taunts after all. Resa was wearing a vest, but that would only help so much... she had to take out the guards somehow. Damn! She had planned to take them out one by one, not all at once, this was going to make some noise. |

Emily adjusted her outfit, unruffled by the insults. "As if I'd use such uncivilized methods? No, I simply gave him all the comfort he could require. I showed him kindness. And he fell in love with me all over again." She smirked. "Because he did love me before, you know." The woman wasn't usually the chatty type. Had this been anyone else, she would have had her personal guards fire and be done with it. But not this time. No, this time, she wanted to brag a little bit. "He adores me and my visits. He's completely forgotten about you. And as for Arco...well..who do you think helped me capture him? Arco is...a dear friend. But he knows my heart will always be Noah's." She made a motion with her hands and the guards steadied their aim. She was beginning to tire of this exchange. "Well then, it was nice seeing you. Have a good time in hell." Wiseman Sigma stepped back, a calm, serene smile on her face. "Fire." |

Resa kicked off into the air just as the word 'fire' was forming on Emily's lips, a feat that was only possible through years of preparing for this day. Bullets followed her, a few pierced her wings, and blood stained her plumage, but she could still fly. She flung down a couple of grenades - three of ten she had hidden away, they wouldn't hurt Emily of course, but it was the guards she was after. She felt the explosion rock the air. From her relatively safe height, she called down into the dust. "Too bad you couldn't have gotten to him sooner, I didn't need to chain him up!" She taunted, doing her utmost to get the other girl angry, anger made her stronger sure, and more dangerous. But it would also make her willing to fight, she had to be careful with this. Resa was smiling despite herself, even though she was afraid, it felt good to be out in the open like this. Beating her wings a little harder, she rose up until she could see the whole yard, casting her gaze over the whole area. Where was she...? 'I wish I could help you find him.' Don't worry Noel, he'll be back. I promise. And she would keep that promise, but first she had to beat this b****, then they could all go home. |

Emily frowned but teleported out of the grenades' range. Her personal guard were taken out in moments. She pressed a finger to the com in her ear. "All guards, we have a situation. I request back up immediately." Then, while Resa was staring at the smoke, she teleported to the roof of the compound. The woman readied her gun and aimed it at the winged User's head. "Die." She mumbled quietly, firing her weapon. Then, without waiting, she pulled a few knives out from hidden pockets in her clothing. With what energy she could muster up while calm, she had them levitate at her side. No way she'd let the bird freak get close. |

The bullet whizzed past her face, close enough for her to feel the breeze of it's passing. In moments, she had located Emily, noticing the knives hovering beside her but paying no heed, diving straight down at her. Resa gathered speed, her jaw set against the pain that was surely coming, and showed no sign of stopping, aiming to crash straight into the other girl. When she was just a few scant metres from the blonde, she took out her own knife, and pointed it directly at her heart. There was no way Emily should be able to physically dodge at this range, but that teleportation before... there were no mirrors around that she could see. It looks like you've improved quite a bit... But she had too, she was so much faster than her, and Emily had to tire out eventually. She had to. Resa had not come this just to fail now. |

Emily stood her ground, ready and waiting. As soon as Resa was within inches of her, the Wiseman teleported away. The knives that were near her flew inward toward the winged woman, followed by a hail of concrete debris from nearby. The blonde hadn't gone far, just behind her opponent. She readied her gun and fired three shots quickly, then teleported again, this time out of sight. Elite began to fill the rooftops and exercise yard, their weapons ready. "You might as well give up. You're not getting in. He's forgotten all about you. You mean nothing to him. Nor to anyone else. If you leave now, I might let you live, but I have a child to return to." |

Unfortunately for Emily, Resa was expecting her. As soon as the other woman vanished from her sight, Resa knew where she would be, it was the same trick she had pulled dozens of times before, and she was ready. Quick as a flash, she reached over her shoulder, seized Emily by the collar with both hands and twisted her up and over her back, flinging her toward the ground. As a result the other girl's aim was thrown off, and the bullet once again whined harmlessly off into the night. Unless she acted extremely quickly, there would be a couple of thousand tonnes of concrete waiting for her at the end of the ride. "Yeah?" She sneered down at her, it was an ugly expression on her normally quite serene face, comparatively. "What do you expect, pity?" She was getting angry now, she could sense it, but instead of squashing it back down, she welcomed it, welcomed the feeling of power it gave her. |

"Wha-oof!!" Emily grunted in pain as her back hit the ground. She kicked back onto her feet then teleported some distance away. "Fire!!" She cried, starting to lose her temper. She then gathered whatever debris were nearby and formed a loose cover over Resa so she couldn't simply fly up and out of harm's way. "Someone get me XIV! All guards come to my position immediately! Even the ones from...Just get me everyone. That should be more than enough. Guard all the entrances." Emily took her hand from the com, a deep frown on her face. It would mean leaving Dimitri's cell unguarded...not that the monster would notice. It was tragic, what had befallen the previous Wiseman Alpha. After Antoinette's murder and Aidric's death, his mind snapped. He had wiped out a good portion of the Wisemen, ironically all those who would have opposed Arco. The man was captured and locked in a psionic-proof cell, away from weak minds. However, his cell was nowhere near Noah's, she doubted Resa would even attempt to head in that direction. Still, there was no way she was getting inside alive. |

Resa's triumph at having actually hurt Emily was short lived as soon the area began to fill up with guards. She looked above her. Her way was blocked by dust and junk. Simply bursting through it was far too risky. Bullets started to fly her way - and she ducked and weaved as best she could, but she couldn't avoid them all. One shot shaved across her ribs - slicing her shirt open, it felt like she had been set on fire. Blood began pouring out almost instantly, and she pressed a hand into it in an effort to make it stop. It wasn't too bad, but unless she was careful she was going to get very woozy, very fast. With her free hand, she pulled her own gun free and fired six times, each one at a guard. She saw three fall, one stumbled backwards, so she had hit him, but not fatally. There was no time to deal with all them. She fumbled in her pouch, and reloaded. This time, she aimed at Emily herself a pulled the trigger again, three... four times, trying to aim in directions the girl might move toward - as well as one directed at her current position. "He doesn't love you Emily, and you don't love him!" She ducked a rock that drifted a little close. "If you loved him, you wouldn't be fighting me, and he wouldn't be in there." She nodded towards the cell. "'Sides, you aren't the only one with a family to protect." |
