Heroes: 'Activating Evolution'

[SilverLake]

"Uh... no thanks," she said for it was clear there would be no help from it and ate her salad.

(shall we skip ahead where we leave?)  

[Yin Yun Yang]

(might as well)

After paying the tab and tipping the waitress they all head outside.

"So, off to your apartment then?"

"I guess, though it is a bit of a mess right now."  

[SilverLake]

Alice shurgged, still unable to shake the feeling of unease, but agreed all the same.  

[Yin Yun Yang]

"Off we go then." Yun lead the way to the apartment complex, he fumbled with his keys a bit outside the room, and then they enterer.

"You guys want the grand tour?"  

[SilverLake]

Though confused about the events outsides, the police tape, the wreckage, and the footprints, she followed them.

As soon as Alice put her foot through the door she froze and the room changed and grew dark like the morning hours. There was a ghostly man hurriedly packing up the last of his bags in the rundown room and another ghostly man entered, opening the see through door. She couldn't move as the murder took place. A whoosh of the spirit pulling the dead man disappeared as if the wind though the door to the outside. Both had that strange light she noticed in herself and the boy....s she had befriended.

Yun snapped her out of it, "You guys want the grand tour?"

A shadow of the killer stood larger than life above them all in the room filled with sunlight and Yin, or Yun's, spirit. It didn't connect with either of them so she knew it couldn't be him. A whisper from the dead man came to her from the other side. "Beware of him..."

She took a step back, afraid and her powers took one step forward.  

[Yin Yun Yang]

Yin rushes over and catches her before she fell.

"You look like you're going to faint, like you've seen a ghost or something horrible."

"I know the room isn't much to look at but I didn't think it was that bad."

"Now is probably not a good time for jokes Yun."

"Just trying to lighten things up a bit, she seems alright now."

They both look at her concerned.  

[SilverLake]

She looked away, "I- We should go back to the woods. It's not safe here."  

[Yin Yun Yang]

"What do you mean it isn't safe here. There is no safe placer than this apartment. I'd know if anything was out of place."

"I'm going to have to agree with Yun on this. There is no one I know who is as careful about protecting his place as Yun. He probably has who knows what kinds of systems set up to know if anything happens in the apartment while he is away or in it."

Yun goes and turns on the tv for some noise, turns all the lights on in the apartment.

"See, nothing here."  

[SilverLake]

"I need to talk to you in the woods..." she mumbled.  

[Yin Yun Yang]

"The woods are a bit of a ways off. We are in the middle of this town right now."

"Anyways, I had my room a hundred percent sound proofed. Nothing said inside can be heard outside. If you don't want to include me in it I'll just wait outside while you two talk about it. That sound ok to you?"

"That would probably work. You go on outside Yun, we should be fine in here."  

[SilverLake]

"As if it would make a differance if you were outside," she mused softly. "As long as other people can't hear though..."  

[Yin Yun Yang]

"Alright, just let me back in when you two are done talking."

Yun goes out and closes the door, stands a bit of a way down the hall even.

"Ok, what is wrong?"  

[SilverLake]

"What's wrong is I'm standing on you," she said on top of the carpet, "but that's completely besides the point isn't it?"  

[Yin Yun Yang]

"What? What do you mean you are standing on top of me?"

Yin was starting to wonder again about her, the weird looks. The shock at the door, and now this. Yun got closer to the door again.  

[SilverLake]

"You know what I mean," Alice said staring him in the eyes. She turned away and opened the door to let Yun in, indicating the conversation was over.
