Alex trudged upstairs, leaving Mavis and Lorna behind, quietly talking. The downstairs bathroom was occupied and he had to go! So he trudged up. ONce in the bathroom, and having done what he needed, he washed his hands, smiling. This would be an awesome day!
He turned to head back down, feeling that life was only getting better for him and his group.
Ozai was consumed by anger, and by hatred. He had a debt to repay in blood, and the stairway started to heat up as he approached a body that seemed almost to welcome him. This would work. This would work.
The warmth was noticed, and Alex glanced around, wondering what was going on. he felt confused for a moment and disoriented.
A mind entered his, a physical presence that seemed to wrap it's way around Alex's body and then into it as though fire itself were trying to worm it's way in.
Alex shook, going to one knee on the stairs as he shook his head, feeling everything darken. “What the---?” But he couldn’t speak and the world seemed to blur and shake as he tried to breathe. The darkness rolled in on him as he cried Lorna’s name aloud in the silence his mind had become and then he felt no more...
Laughter roiled inside his head, and then turned to a soft chuckle. Ozai looked down at the hands of his new body. The knowledge he gleaned in those brief moments before he overpowered his host told him two useful things - this body had power, and Neena Thurman was nearby. He knew that woman's face well.
He started down the stairs, in search of one of his killers.
Neena was hanging out with everyone outside, drinking a beer. Thomas was off talking to Harry about his niece, so Neena was mostly just chatting with Scott and attempting to consume all his alcohol. It was a tough job, but someone had to do it.
"Neena," 'Alex' said, coming up to them. He gave Scott a rueful grin, "I need to talk to her alone, if you don't mind?"
Neena nodded, taking another beer hand handing it over to Alex. The fact that he was asking Scott was weird, but whatever. She took another long drink and headed toward the tree line, figuring this was something about the cruise she’d promised him, or some other equally mundane thing. “What’s up? I thought you were hold down the couch with your girlfriends?”
‘Alex’ followed, sipping at his beer and pretending that he actually liked it. Ozai hated beer. “There’s something I need to show you. I’ve got it in the car, it’s a surprise for .. Lorna.”
“Sure.” Neena headed toward the driveway, finishing her beer as she went. “You know I’m not good at this girly stuff, though, right? I could get Emma, she knows more about that kind of thing.” Even if she was a gigantic bitch.
"No, I think I need your specific help." He fished around until he found the keys in his pocket, and made his way to Alex's truck. He opened the tailgate once Neena was closer, and stepped back. "Just want to make sure I am doing good."
“There’s nothing in the back of your truck,” Neena noted, moving closer to make sure she didn’t miss anything. “What the hell?”
Ozai grabbed the back of Neena's head and slammed her forward into the truck. He had every intention of trying to knock her out and shoving her into the bed of the truck.
Neena was only beginning to be suspicious when Ozai slammed her head into the truck. She made a soft noise and fell unconscious, her beer bottle falling to the ground.
Ozai chuckled. He closed the gate of the truck, the walked around to the driver's door. He got in, started it up, and drove off.
Sensing something to the east, he turned in that direction. Before long he came across a woman chasing another woman.
Khamul was wielding a sword unlike any Ozai had ever seen.
The wraith in a woman's body lept forward, grasping onto Kitty with her left hand. When the woman phased, Khamul cut through her with the sword.
Kitty screamed, and fell to the ground. He looked at Ozai in the idling truck, and the two exchanged dark smiles.
They made a pact; Ozai would find Ty Lee, Azula, Zuko and Draco, and bring them back while Khamul dealt with Ozai's killers. Then Khamul would get the joy of watching Ozai break one of his killers.
The wraith climbed into the truck, and they drove off.
