It's a Strange World

Noon
Michael stopped at the end of a street. "Alright Samuel's running a little late for work thanks to yours truly." Michael said. Michael handed Cole a syringe. "Keep your head down and do this as quietly as you can." Michael ordered. Cole took the syringe and smiled. "Don't worry, I'm sure this is no different then lifting some sap's wallet." Cole said. Cole put on a hoodie and got out of the car.
Cole put the syringe in the muff of the hoodie and put some ear buds connected to his iPhone in his ears. Cole pulled his hood up and walked toward Jakobs. Cole bumped into Jakobs, almost knocking him over. "Hey ass-clown watch it!" Samuel yelled. "Oh um sorry." Cole said without turning back to him. Cole quickly got out of there. Samuel grunted and shortly after he was clinching his left arm. He then fell over. As people walking on the street crowded around him, Cole tossed the syringe in nearby trash can. "Please no applauds." Cole said as he got back into Michael's car. Michael rolled his eyes and they quickly left as soon as the paramedics arrived.

 

Noon
Adler stepped into the kitchen and saw the note Angelina left. Tenga and Stier followed shortly behind. "What's that?" Tenga asked. "It's a note from Angelina, she's leaving. Should we go after her?" Adler replied. "No. If she doesn't want to be here then we can't make, no matter what the wolf thinks. If we have to force her here then we can't rely on her." Tenga said. The twins looked at each other, they didn't really like that call but they couldn't question it. "Now come on we've got work to do." Tenga ordered. Russell was on his way to the safe house on his bike when he spotted Angelina. He didn't think anything of it and continued on to the safe house. "Sup SWs." Russell greeted when he got inside. "You seem like your feeling better." Adler replied. "Good your here. We were just about to call you. We're going on the offensive against Fisher, you in?" Tenga asked. Russell grinned. "It would be my undying pleasure." Russell replied.
Martian had followed Russell to the neighborhood where the safe house is. But he had to stay a fair bit of ways behind Russell so he didn't catch his scent and he didn't see which house he went in. He looked around at the street and saw Angelina. 'Perfect. I need to get back at that little tart anyways.' He thought to himself. He leaped up on top of the surrounding buildings and followed her.

Michael stopped his car near the docks. There Victor Gomez was ordering various guards around a shipping freighter. "So what's the plan boss man?....heh rhythm." Cole asked. Michael rolled his eyes. "I forgot how immature you are. You go out and a few of the guards attention and take them on a little walk while I'll handle Victor." Michael ordered. "Right." Cole replied as he got out of the car. "I'll go park around the block. Don't get shot!" Michael said as he drove off. Cole gave him a nod.
OOC: Warning following may be considered violent. Read at your own risk.
Cole quietly approached the freighter. "Yo! Any of you fine upstanding *******s got a smoke?!" Cole shouted out to them. "What the hell?" Victor muttered to himself. Victor instantly recognized him. "Get him!" Victor ordered. "Well I'll take that as a no. Peace!" Cole said before he ran off with five guards following him. As soon as they were out of sight Victor took out his cell phone was about to dial before Michael came up behind him. Michael took out a pistol with a suppresser on the end. He shot Victor in both knees making him drop his phone and bringing him down. Michael slid the phone away from him with his foot. "I'm sorry but your call couldn't be completed as dialed." Michael mocked. "Now on the chance you come back as a ghost I want you to tell Fisher something: F#%k off!" Michael said before he unloaded into Victor's skull. As soon as Victor fell Michael got out of there.
Cole was giving the guards a pretty good chase. "Oh come on guys I haven't broken a sweat!" Cole yelled back at the guards. Michael stopped his car in front of Cole and shot at the guards. Cole slid across the hood of the car and hopped into the passenger's seat and they got the hell out of there.

 

Noon
Michael drove himself and Cole back to the safe house. Cole got out of the car and went inside. "Yo Russ." Cole said to Russell who was sitting on the couch watching TV. "Hey." Russell replied. Stier came in all sweaty and with a bottle of water. "Okay Gamma Ihre getaggt." he said to Russell. Russell looked over at Cole. "He said that he's tagging you in. Whatever that means." Cole translated. "Oh right." Russell replied. Russell went out to the garage where power drills and other power tools could be heard.
Cole was about to head upstairs but Stier stopped him. "Angelina verlassen Sie eine Notiz." Stier said as he handed Cole the note from Angelina. "Vielen Dank." Cole thanked him unsure what it was about. Cole read the letter and was rushed with a mixture of sadness and anger. Cole sighed. He knew he could track her down easily but he couldn't just lock her up in her room or something. Cole crumpled up the letter and tossed it into the garbage. "Screw it." Cole said as he stormed out.
Outside Cole sniffed the air, he caught her scent fairly quickly. He was about to follow it when Michael grabbed his arm. "Hey kid where's the fire?" He asked. "Angelina she left." Cole replied. "Look, I can till you care about her but you can't force her to stay." Michael said. "I know. But I have to at least make sure she's safe. I promise to be back before the heist." Cole said. Michael gave him a nod and let him go. Cole took off from the safe house on Tenga's motorcycle.

Martian was up in the forest's tree line watching Angelina from a good ways away. Martian had gotten closer from the trees without making a sound. Martian leaped down behind her. "I don't know, are you missing Cole's Big Bad Wolf?" Martian said with a chuckle. "Oh don't worry, I've got tons more."

 

Night
Martian chuckled. "Girly, I'm the bad guy. I kind of hold grudges." Martian said with a grin. "But I'll let you go if you tell me where the safe house is. We both just walk away and no one will be the wiser." Martian offered. "So what's it going to be?" Martian asked. Granted he was already pretty sure of the answer but it never hurts to ask.
Cole stopped the motorcycle a little bit outside of the forest. He could small Martian's scent and didn't want to alert him that he was there. Cole sniffed around until he found them. Cole leaped up in the tree line and listened to there conversation.

 

Night
Cole was a little relieved that Angelina wasn't going to rat them out, not that he thought she would. "Now that's disappointing. But I guess I will have to grant your wish." Martian said with a grin. Martian readied his claws and was about to strike. Cole was about ready to leap in but a arrow flew from seemingly out of no where and got Martian in the shoulder.
"Son of a....." Martian groaned as he took the arrow out of his shoulder. Martian looked around him and sniffed the air. A flurry of arrows came flying at Martian. Martian was fast enough to swat away most of the arrows but one pinned his sleeve to a tree. A black woman walked out from behind a tree. She was tall, thin and muscular. She had a small crossbow in her hand. She glared at Angelina with mix of anger and disappointment.
Martian finally got loose. "I'm sooooo not in the mood lady!" Martian growled. Martian lunged forward towards her. Martian rapidly slashed at her. The woman moved so fluidly and dodged Martian's strikes like they were nothing. Eventually she saw her opening and took Martian's right arm and twisted it around and forced it behind him. She twisted his arm until she a loud popping from his arm. "Listen and listen good mongrel. If you ever threaten or try to hurt one of my children again I will personally dig out your pancreas with a teaspoon. That goes for you and for the rag tag group of misfits Fishers put to gather."
The mystery woman shoved Martian head first into a tree. Martian growled at the woman, but his growl was muffled under the sound of his bones healing. "Who are you?" Martian asked. "Me? I'm everyone." She said as she shifted into Martian. "And no one." She said as she changed into some kind of bum. She turned back to her first form. "Now leave you filthy mongrel!" She ordered as her eyes glowed a light blue. Martian's head was writhing in pain. "This.....isn't.....over." He grunted and left. "Filthy beast. Werewolves. Thinking they are so superior. But I remember the time when there pelts hung above my fireplace."
Cole hopped down the from the tree. Angelina seems fairly safe now, and the mystery woman was a little scary, and he needed to get back to the safe house.

 

Night
Cole went over to Angelina. He stared at her arm. Cole put his hand on her shoulder. "If life was easy then wouldn't be worth living." Cole said in a sympatric voice. "I'm not going to deny you've had your fair share of troubles and then some. But your not alone." Cole said. The mystery woman rolled her eyes. "Enough. Leave now wolf. The only reason I don't lay you out now is that Arthur has use for you." She ordered. "Well aren't you a charmer." Cole smirked. She gave him a scowl that looked like she was about to blow his head off. "Fine." Cole growled. Cole looked back at Angelina. "I'm not giving up on you, I can't." Cole said before he left.
"You asked what gives me the right? I'm the Shape-shifter elder you stupid girl. I have all the right!" The Elder yelled. "Arthur sent me here to watch over you guys. And now I see why!" She continued. "And taking it's course? 'The course' is for humans and things beneath us!" She continued to yell. "I'm not here to hold your hand girl. I don't hold any of my children's hands! If you want to die then I will give you a knife. But if you want to live and no longer be on the side lines then come we me."

 

Night
"Now there's a smart girl." The elder said. She motioned for her follow her deeper into the woods. She lead her to a small camp site. "Why do you want to be human? We are stronger, faster, and much smarter then those beastly mud-monkeys. We are superior to them. And you need to learn this. We aren't here to do with what they will, they do what we will." She said in a fierce icy cold voice. "Oh, and call me Wyneb my daughter." Wyneb said.
Cole double timed it back to the safe house and made it just in time. They were all about to leave. Cole parked the motorcycle on the street and went over to them. "Well I was beginning to believe you weren't going to make it kid." Michael said. Tenga stormed over to Cole and gave him a huge punch to the chin. "Ever take my bike again I'll maul you." Tenga growled. "Punk ass *****." Tenga muttered as he walked away. "Alright I deserve that, now what have you guys been working on all day?" Cole asked. Michael grinned. He opened the garage door and inside was a modified Hummer with a large ripper on the front bumper. Cole grinned. They all but Michael piled into the Hummer and drove off.
It took a few hours but the hummer got to a highway. They hid out by the road, waiting for the semi. "So, is Angelina ok?" Russell asked in a worried tone. "Yeah, I think so." Cole replied. Cole was worried about her, he himself has been where she's been before, but he eventually moved on, and now he realizes that he can't force her too. "The Shape-shifter Elder is with her. I don't know if she will hurt her or not, and I'm not sure if I could help her against her. She beat...no humiliated Martian without breaking a sweat." Cole admitted.
"Maybe we should......wait there it is!" Russell pointed the semi out. "Alright boys let's punch in!" Cole said as he started the Hummer up and rushed forward and slammed into the passing semi. Cole backed up and the boys all rushed out of the Hummer and over to the driver. Tenga yanked the knocked out driver out of the semi, and dragged him over to a nearby tree and tied him to it. Cole opened the trailer. Inside was 10 large crates. Cole sniffed at crates. "Damn that's a lot of coke." Cole commented. Cole hopped out of the trailer and gave Russell and the twins a nod. They hopped in the trailer and started dumping a ton of gasoline. Once they emptied 2 gallons they hopped out. "Let's light the night up fellas." Cole said as he tossed a lite match in the trailer. As trailer blazed they drove off in the hummer.

 

Episode 19 Say my Name
July 20 2013

Morning
"A normal life? How angst-ie of you. Tell me do you write bad poetry about storm clouds or whatever it is people who hate life write about." Wyneb mocked. "You don't get do you? Just one of us is worth a hundred of them. And if your life was so bad then change it. Only an idiot keeps doing the same thing and expects something different to happen." She said as she stared intensely at the dying campfire.

Cole quickly drove the hummer into the garage and slammed the door down. "Well that was fun. We should do boys night out more often. Next time let's go bowling." Cole said with a smirk. "Now I'm tired, so I'm going to take a nap." Cole said as he went inside.

 

Noon
Wyneb looked over at Angelina. She could tell she was trying not to cry. She sighed. "Sorry if I come off........aggressive. Being an Elder isn't all that it cracks up to be. You wouldn't believe how many children a year try to reveal themselves to the public. And there's this particular annoying little nit called Gezichten." She said with a bit of annoyance. "Anyway your here to learn. And I'm sure you also have tons of questions for me. So ask away."

"You know something Martian? I'm tired of these talks. Me reminding you of your failures. You saying it won't happen again. It's getting very tedious." Fisher scowled. "Sir I have-" Rivers said as he walked into the office with a small box. "Oh, I didn't know you were in a meeting." Rivers apologized. "No we're done here. Martian please get out." Fisher demanded. Martian didn't say a word and then left. Rivers laid the box on Fisher's desk. Fisher grinned fiendishly.
Fisher opened the box and inside was a very old gold coin. Fisher took the coin out of the box and stared at it intently. "Oh this is the real deal! Mr. Rivers you never cease to amaze." Fisher said with glee. "Will it work? The spell I mean. Can it even bring him here from that damned island?" Rivers asked. "For you average two bit magician, then no. But I'm anything but average." Fisher replied.
Fisher took out a large silver bowl and two runestones with add, glowing symbols on them. "Educ artifices regionis huius Oberon aurum!" Fisher repeated several times before the runestones floated up into the air. A beam of light shot of them and hit the coin. The coin then melted. The liquid gold starting oozing itself from the bowl and poured itself out on the floor. Then it started to shape. It took the shape of a small impish man made out of pure gold. Then the gold started to crack, and the shell came apart to bring the imp to flesh and blood.

 

Night
The formerly golden imp slowly raised up. His whole body was cracking and popping as if he hasn't moved in years. "Rumplestiltskin" Fisher said with a smile. "Marcus Fisher? Is that you?" Rumple asked as he stared at Fisher. "Yes Rumple 'tis me. You've been gone for a very, very long time." Fisher explained. "Well the years have not been kind to you old friend." Rumple said as he stretched out. "Thanks for freeing me. Oberon has a very...vivid imagination when it comes to prisoners." He said with a loud yawn.
"Now the only reason you'd free me is that you want something right? If this is about our deal all those years ago then forget it. It 'twas a fair bargain considering what you gained." the imp said in a stern voice. "No, it was a fair trade." Fisher said in a sad tone. "Good, because Matthew is dead. If it makes you feel any better he brought me a good 5 years out of Oberon's prison." Rumple said with a small grin. Fisher's eyes widened and then drooped down in sadness. "I want to make a new deal." Fisher said trying to regain his composer. "Um....no." Rumple replied. "No!? What do you mean no? We freed you! You owe us, you damned imp!" Fisher yelled in outrage. "Oh don't get me wrong. I'm internally grateful. But that's as far as it goes. I already got you first born. You have nothing else I want." Rumple replied.
Fisher was shaking with anger. "You dare!" Fisher yelled as his hands with glowing dark purple. "I assure you Oberon has nothing on me!" Fisher shouted as he walked toward Rumple. Rumple snapped his fingers and Fisher's hands returned to normal. "No, you dare raise your hand to me!? You humans and your pathetic understanding of magic. I gave you the spark! Not some fool who thinks himself a god!" Rumple said as he held out his hand. Fisher began to slowly fall to his knees. He could feel his magic draining. Then Rumple suddenly stopped. "You are in luck. I'm not the one to kill you." Rumple said before he disappeared.

"Your father?" Wyneb asked. She began to think deeply about it. "I'm sorry Angelina. But there is a lot of shapeshifters. It my take some time." She said. Wyneb then got up and went over to a pile of her stuff. She then felt this overwhelming surge of power that only an Elder could feel, she then collapsed on the ground. While on the ground her eyes rolled back in her head. "Velum est scissum. Oberon actionem postulat." She kept repeating over and over. After a few minutes of rambling she got back up.
