Chile climbed to a platform and surveyed her company. "Ok, you talked to Michael about, like... protection and stuff? But there's something Michael doesn't know about. Muse is being hunted by one of those anti-human Gifted gangs, cause he took something from them. They're looking for a lady who looks nothing like him now, but I'm still recognizable. If you're really doing something, you should.. probably be told." Tekanni nodded, then slowly went to hug him. "It makes perfect sense." He kept still, but allowed the hug into his feathers. Ivy exchanged a look to Flanngo before responding. "That sounds like something we can do something about. We've been keeping an eye on the movement of the groups around the city. Bare minimum we can give you a heads up, but I assure you we won't be letting them slip through into here." Tekanni held on, starting to cry quietly. "What happened to you?" --- This earned them an enthusiastic grin from Chile. "Awesome! Thank you. It's been years, but those people aren't the kind that just let things go, and I know it worries Muse." |

Here?" --- Ivy nodded. "I'd imagine. Even after years it wouldn't be wise for everyone to let their guard down. We're still on our toes where we work." "...was it something important, what he took?" Flanngo asked. Ivy shook her head. "I don't think that will change much. You know what those people are like." |

You're a young Gifted, isn't that all I need to know something happened? Maybe we used to get by sometimes, with normal lives, but that happens less and less these days, doesn't it?" --- Chile's eyes met Flanngo's. "It was... someone. Someone they wouldn't let go." |

He nodded slowly and managed to get quieter. "...please don't be upset. We have to do what we can, even with all the stuff that's going on. I know things are getting worse but...okay?" --- Flanngo's shoulders sank as she leaned in to whisper. "Someone here? Someone you helped? I won't tell." |

You're braver then most, Artemis, and more mature too." --- Chile nodded silently, her eyes not breaking contact with Flanngo's. |

He angled a wing to give a few pats on Tekanni's back. "I know i'm still young, but I hope that i'm helping." --- She nodded in response too, then flashed a look back to Ivy. "Okay. We're not going to let anyone get taken again..." |

"Tekanni will catch up any minute, if she hasn't jumped ahead of us. So real quick, if you need anything from me, just ask. I'll do what I can." She started climbing the rope ladder to the next platform, then glanced back them. "They weren't taken, just really dumb." |

"...should we catch up with everyone else?" --- They both nodded, enhancing another look between themselves. Ivy spoke up. "We just need you to keep us updated on if something happens. If there's anything you want us to know, or anything else important. Can't do our jobs without it." |

Tekanni held out her hand, "I can move us, if you like? They went up the ropes ladders, we can skip that step." --- "Of course," Chile replied, "But how should I do that? You got a mailbox or a phone number?" |

Ivy smiled and shook her head. "No, I think we'll have to set something more secure up. Are you decent with technology?" |

The vanishing act enveloped them in a bubble, Tekanni's other hand touching the surface of the bubble. Their target destination came into view outside the bubble, and Tekanni tweaked the bubble's location in the space. "Huh, the others aren't up here yet." --- "Yeah!" Chile exclaimed, "I love computers and programming." |

Your magic doesn't have any weird...side effects, yeah?" --- "Great. We can ask our friend about an ear piece. To see if there's any extra. I think that would be the fastest way for us to communicate." Ivy responded. |

The bubble around them cracked and vanished, leaving them on the empty catwalk. Voices sounded from a rope ladder not far from them. --- Chile nodded. "An earpiece? Like spies? Sounds cool." She glanced down the rope ladder before she started climbing again. "Your friend doesn't like me, does he? Was it something I said?" |

He doesn't hate you, if that's what you're asking." --- "Huh..." He twisted a clump of his hair to check. It was still the usual brown. His feathers eased as he inched towards the ladder to peer over. |

Her face flushed and she yelled at the figure who appeared behind him. "Tekanni, why can't you give a little warning when you do that!" Tekanni shrugged in response. "We just got here." |
