New world, new problems
Hei had been just ready to kill his victim, his pupils glowing with that little red dot, his body emitting his blue aura as he drove his hand down to grab his victim, they vanished and his hand collided with dirt.

Blinking for a moment, he defused his bodies energy and looked about confused as to where he was, before his eyes fell upon a sign, a very odd sign. "Ask a Question? What kind of a sign asks someone to ask a question?" Pondering this, he allowed himself to relax only for a moment before quickly returning to his shifty state of looking about himself, making sure no one was going to sneak up on him.

Moving to stand up now, he slowly moved his right hand into his jacket, not wanting to encounter anything that would throw him for a loop. This place was new to him, and even through it was new, he wondered if the Syndicate had anything to do with this. They had always been looking for new ways of challenging him, and maybe they had finally found the perfect challenge.

"An annoying ass brightly colored one," Ed says. Yes, that is a cat that just talked to you.

	Looking down at the cat, he just shrugged as his eyes slowly moved back over to the sign, scanning the thing slowly to see just how he got here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's rude to ignore people that are talking to you, you know," Ed points out, tailtip twitching. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"True, but do I seem like the kind of person that would care cat?" Eyes still scanning the sign (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haganenomore 2012-01-22 01:33 am UTC (link)
	Ed does a little kitty shrug. "Suit yourself. But no one's gonna tell you anything about what the place is like with that attitude." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I have my ways of getting about, and here in Hells gate will be no different. I will get back home and continue my work. Until then, contractor, why don't you go body jump into something a little more threatening?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haganenomore 2012-01-22 01:48 am UTC (link)
	"Body jumping isn't an ability I have. And this is the Nexus, not Hells gate, wherever that is. There's a lot of different worlds that connect here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:24 am UTC (link)
	"Lots of different worlds then huh? Well then explain to me how two worlds that have already collided, collide into another damn place like this? And your a talking cat! A bloody contractor, don't play stupid with me cat. I know my own kind." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haganenomore 2012-01-22 06:27 am UTC (link)
	Ed's starting to get irritated. "There's things that happen here, that sometimes affects what someone is. I've been hit by one of those. And all you did was wander through a portal. No world crashing involved." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:33 am UTC (link)
	"Explain how a portal appears then cat. Because I wasn't moving when this happened. And you being a cat, your trying to tell me that it was all a big misunderstanding? How amusing, but I'm still not buying it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It shows up at random. I got here through a doorway that normal leads into someone's personal library, other people just wind up suddenly here instead of where they're going." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:37 am UTC (link)
	"That doesn't explain what happen to me. I was in the middle of my kill, finishing my job when I appeared here. How? A portal just randomly jumped in front of my fist? And just like that I am here?" he scoffed (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haganenomore 2012-01-22 06:39 am UTC (link)
	Another kitty shrug. "Don't look at me. I'm not the portal that appeared for you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:41 am UTC (link)
	Rolling his eyes he turned back to the sign, pondering the events that had come up to this point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haganenomore 2012-01-22 06:45 am UTC (link)
	This is when Ed decides to take his leave. If the guy was just going to be hostile and not ask any anything like what dangers there may or may not be, it was no skin off his nose. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Nazrin was carrying a box of computer parts, when she saw Hei. He looked confused slightly, and she realized he must be new. "It's the kind of sign that gets people talking." She said, walking closer. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Looking back at the mouse girl, he was assuming she was a contractor with some weird power as he let his eyes scan over her slowly. "Some sign then." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	loanedthoughts 2012-01-22 01:30 am UTC (link)
	Pfft, good luck hurting anyone. AVF does it's job well. "It serves it's purpose here in the Nexus, though it is rather obtrusive." Nazrin smiles, and tilts her head. "New here, I presume?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:34 am UTC (link)
	Eyes stopping on the sign once again Hei nodded his head. "Yes, new, I do believe that is what I am here... Where ever here is..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	loanedthoughts 2012-01-22 01:39 am UTC (link)
	Nazrin nods. "It's the Nexus. A convergence of all worlds and all times. Anything that can exists connects here in someway." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:44 am UTC (link)
	Staring blankly at this, girl Hei shook his head slowly. "So, I must be in Hells gate. That is the only way to explain this... But how did I end up here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	loanedthoughts 2012-01-22 01:47 am UTC (link)
	"Hells gate? Not really, it's actually a pretty pleasant place to live. Peaceful, for the most part, when master isn't off challenging gods to fights. And you got here through a portal, one that likely closed just now." Nazrin says, setting her box down. Dang that's heavy for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:57 am UTC (link)
	"Wait, this place... This isn't hells gate? But, it seems like something the gate would do to us..." Hei looked up at the sign again slowly. "It seems like a damn joke to me, this sign here, and ending up like this..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	loanedthoughts 2012-01-22 02:01 am UTC (link)
	"The gate? Must be different from the Gate I know. But I quite assure you it's no joke. This place is real, though, five months ago, I'd have said something similar." Nazrin says. She extends her hand to him. "Pleasure to meet you. I'm Nazrin." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:22 am UTC (link)
	Looking down at her hand, he just nodded to her as he looked her over again. "This really isn't hells gate, most people would run at the sight of a contractor, but you welcome me... Strange." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	loanedthoughts 2012-01-23 12:33 am UTC (link)
	"Well, there's two reasons I'm not running. The first is, I have plenty of allies here, and I'm very confident in their ability and willingness to help me. The second, is even if you wanted to, there's no way you could hurt me here." She says, smiling and letting her hand drop. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	"The kind that wants you to ask a question," Aang said. Hello, Hei have a bouncy pre-teen tattooed monk with a lemur on his shoulder. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:40 am UTC (link)
	Looking to the small boy, he blinked before looking to the monkey thing on his shoulder. "A sign to that wishes you to ask a question..." Hei mumbled, as he looked back at the sign (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	air_avatar 2012-01-22 01:44 am UTC (link)
	"Well, it's a good way to start a conversation with people," he answered. "Hi, I'm Aang." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:48 am UTC (link)
	Looking to the boy, he nodded. "Hei." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	air_avatar 2012-01-22 01:50 am UTC (link)
	"Nice to meet you, Hei. This is Momo." He gestured to the lemur. "Is this your first time in the Nexus?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 02:00 am UTC (link)
	Nodding at this, he slowly turned around as he looked at the sign. "Nexus? What is that? I thought this was Hells gate." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	air_avatar 2012-01-22 02:04 am UTC (link)
	"Well, it's like... kind of like a meeting place, I guess?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:25 am UTC (link)
	"A meeting place huh... For what? And for who? I could have sworn this place, this calm looking place was Hells gate..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	air_avatar 2012-01-22 06:27 am UTC (link)
	"For everyone. And, just to talk. And to meet new people. I mean, I think there's some people who live here, too, but I just visit." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:31 am UTC (link)
	"How do you just visit this place...?" He stared blankly at Aang his eyes wondering about the boy (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	air_avatar 2012-01-22 06:33 am UTC (link)
	Aang shrugged. "I'm in tune with the spirit world, so I see places where the Nexus overlaps with my own world as well." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:34 am UTC (link)
	Nods to this, turning to face the sign once again. "I wonder how exactly I got here then." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	air_avatar 2012-01-22 07:48 pm UTC (link)
	"I can help you retrace your steps," Aang said. "I've always wondered what some of the other worlds look like." (Reply to this) (Parent)

Iktomi was hanging around a Convenient Nexus Water Cooler, waiting for a Question. He'd shapeshifted into his 'Coyote' look, so as not to be recognized if anyone from his world came through.

Iktomi frowned at this man, who seemed- wary. Probably not best to play a trick on this one.

"That sign," Iktomi said, pointing to the Sign. "A sign in between the worlds asks someone to ask a question, that's the kind of sign that does. Do you know where you are?"

(Reply to this) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 01:38 am UTC (link)
	Looking back to the man speaking he then looked back to the sign shaking his head. "No, I do not. So, if you would be so kind, fill me in on where 'this' place is." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nightstallion 2012-01-22 01:46 am UTC (link)
	Iktomi nodded. "You're in the Nexus. It's sort of like the train stop in between the universes." Iktomi grinned. "So a lot of different kinds of people show up. You came through a portal." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:19 am UTC (link)
	"A portal huh. This place, this isn't Hell's gate, this... this is a place in-between worlds? I knew of other worlds existing but a place where they all meet?" He looked down slowly, wondering what exactly had happened to bring him to this odd place (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nightstallion 2012-01-23 03:36 am UTC (link)
	"Exactly. And no, it's not Hell's Gate, whatever that is." Iktomi laughed a little. "It's a weird place here, but not Hell." (Reply to this) (Parent)

	gatemaster 2012-01-22 03:06 am UTC (link)
	The Gate's out and about in the Nexus, or rather, the two brothers who run it, comfortable in their human forms. Edward spoke up first. "The Nexus sign does. The center of the universe is Ann Landers," he joked. If Hei can sense energy, he'll probably notice that both Ed and the taller young man with him are putting off huge amounts of energy. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	hei_black 2012-01-22 06:17 am UTC (link)
	Looking over the two, he slipped his hand inside of his trench coat, leaving his mask on as he looked over the two, felling their energy pulsing off of them, like heat from a fire. "What do you mean the Nexus sign does? I thought I was in Hells gate." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	gatemaster 2012-01-23 03:41 am UTC (link)
	"Nope!" Al said brightly. "You're in the Nexus. It's a place where all realities meet up." "You're definitely a newb," Edward commented idly. "If we really hated our servants, we'd have one come show you around." "Brother, be nice." (Reply to this) (Parent)
