FEAR PLOT

FEAR PLOT

The fears we don’t face become our limits.

DATES: Saturday, August 3 - Tuesday, August 6

SUMMARY: Ostrich Villa residents wake up to an eerie, black sky. Dark ghost-like creatures confront those brave enough to venture out. Those confronted not only feel dread and cold when these creatures approach, but also face their worst fears. The creatures seem invincible; neither magical nor lay means kill them. The sun does not come up while the creatures roam Goodland.

CREATURE CONFRONTATIONS: Vanya & Five

"I didn't see anyone else, but I don't know," Five said simply. He didn't see the point in lying, though he certainly wasn't accusing her, either. He didn't know if anyone had been hurt, if anyone was even awake. He couldn't even be sure of the time at the moment as the darkened sky gave little away about the hour. "But no buildings came down. Just some shaking," he assured her.

"Oh." he shifted a little bit on the floor, reaching into his shorts pocket, he pulled out the necklace."This was on the ground." He looked at the necklace in his hand, still wondering how it worked, still wondering if he could figure it out. "I couldn't say how it got there, but it looks intact," he said, looking up. He then held his hand out to her, the necklace resting in his palm.

"Okay, that's - that's not so bad." It was, though, and it was written all over her face. Just because it wasn't the worst it could be, didn't mean it wasn't bad at all. She chewed on her lip, pushing back some of her rain-soaked hair. She clearly wasn't going to move from this spot for a minute, so she fully sat down - crossed legged - and took some deep, hopefully calming breaths.

The stones on her bracelets were an amber color. Apparently, that meant she was feeling a mix of emotions, and given the slightly greyish hue it was stress, nervousness, anxiety. She took a few more breaths, deliberate and the stones stuck to grey, low-level stress.

It turned to a darker grey, Vanya's face turning red. She was obviously more than a little ashamed at herself. "I- I think I took it off." She reached out, taking it gently from his palm and placing it back around her neck cautiously. The suffocating feeling was gone. "It - I don't know what it was, but it felt like it was suffocating me so I took it off."

Quietly, calmly, Five watched her. His face was placid, and he made no move to make her move. The brief things he'd seen were enough to tell him that she likely saw someone equally as awful, though he had no idea what. And he wasn't going to ask her right now. He was both smart enough and observant enough to know that, right now might not be the best time to ask her about what that being showed her. And he certainly didn't want to talk about the quick visions he'd banished.

His eyes flicked to the bracelets, and he wondered what the colors meant. The only thing he knew about them for sure was that they corresponded to her emotions, which, just then, he supposed could be anything. It made him curious if it were an effective way to ascertain emotions, if it were something that could be applied to everyone. Why he thought about that, he did not know, but his focus shifted quickly enough.

Nodding his head, he said, "That thing, whatever it was, certainly is strong. And unpleasant. But you can stay here until they're gone. If you want. I can get us some blankets and pillows and food later."

"Are you sure? Is it safe here? Are there people here? Where are we, exactly?" She figured this was probably his lab, and she was pretty sure he had one at Stark Industries, but Vanya knew her brother well enough to know that you could never just assume with Five.

Shaking her head, she wiped some water from her face, her hair still dripping. "No, no Five, you don't have to do that. I don't want to bother you and you don't have to babysit me. I'll be fine alone." She said, though from the look on her face that was absolutely not true.

"Just, tell me if Klaus and Diego are okay. In the physical sense, I'm sure neither of them is going to be particularly okay if they see... if they run into one of those things."

"It's safer than outside," he said, though he wasn't entirely sure. He kept whatever doubts he had out of his off and off his face, not wanting to worry her. It was, at the very least, away from that misery thing, which made it a far better place to be than the apartment.

Five raised his left arm, waving it around to indicate the space, glancing around the room. "This is my lab at Stark Industries." He dropped his arm, hand back in his lap. "The security's not bad, and the chairs are quite comfortable." Outside of the furniture and papers, notebooks and coffee cups, it wasn't decorated. But Five didn't own much here to add to the decor, though a tiny part of him thought he should consider changing that. Maybe a plant. Maybe a fake plant. Those were easier to take care of.

"I'm not babysitting you, Vanya; I'm keeping you company. But I didn't get the chance to check on them. I woke up to these strange text messages, decided to get dressed, and then everything started shaking. And then I found you. And now we're here." He shifted, moving to sit with his legs crossed instead of on his knees, hands folded in his lap. "You're welcome to stay as long as you need. I can even make us coffee," he added, giving her a small smile.

"That's true." She agreed, looking over the place again. There was a lot of stuff, but not a lot of personality in it. Aside from the sheer amount of coffee cups, which was very Five.

His response to keeping her company, and making her coffee, caused Vanya to return a small smile and she nodded her head a little reluctantly. "Okay. Alright, yeah. That - that sounds nice." She had to admit, being somewhere where the only person who would really be around was Five would be a welcome relief from the apartment.

"Did you - I mean, you had to of, but, did you jump us here? Did you know you could take people with you?" She asked, trying to hide the accusation in her voice. If he knew, if he'd always suspected... Why hadn't he taken her with him?

Five looked down at his lap, studying his entwined fingers. Had he known he could take others with him through space, would he have done so before? Had he known prior to the end of the world (second edition, same as the first, but a little bit louder, and a whole lot worse) that he could do more than just push himself through time, would he have taken anyone with him? Would he have taken her? But if he had known how to do any of that, he wouldn't have gotten stuck in the first place. Everything would be different if he'd just known more about his own ability.

"I jumped us, but I didn't know I could do it," he said, looking back up at her. "It seemed like it might have been possible to move all of us through time back at the theater, and I hadn't done that before. I don't know if that worked, though. However, it makes sense that, if I can do that, I can jump with people." He decided not to mention that part of him wasn't entirely sure how that worked, either, that an instinctual part of himself had taken over in the moment. He thought he could figure it out once he had a moment to think about it. Later. He would figure it out later.

"It would have made sneaking out for donuts a lot easier to know I could do that," he added with a smirk.

"Oh." Vanya replied, processing the danger they had just been in all over again. This time from a more distant perspective, but also with the added danger of not just the creature, not just herself, but jumping through space with Five. The ways things could have gone catastrophically wrong in the last ten minutes was a little crazy. But then, that was just kind of their life, wasn't it?

Five's quip about sneaking out had Vanya laughing, and the colors on her devices shifted to a light blue. Calm, relaxed, happy. She felt safe here. She felt safe with Five, which was ridiculous if you just saw things o the surface - a fifteen-year-old boy making a thirty-year-old woman feel safe. He wasn't, though. He was twice her age mentally and Five had always made Vanya feel safe. As ridiculous as it seemed on the outside, Vanya was happy like this.

"Yeah, I guess it would have." She replied, finally letting out a long, heavy sigh. "Okay. Inside seems safe, and as long as those things don't come inside I'm not going to be a danger to anyone. These things work really well and I'm working on control still. If those things hadn't of gotten so far in my head that I took the necklace off it would have been fine. So, if you want to go back now and check on everyone else, I - I' not going to go nuclear."

His eyes shifted to the jewelry as the color changed, and he made a note, looking back at his sister and the way she laughed. Interesting, he thought, though he pushed further thoughts of it from his mind. For now.

Nodding, Five reached out and gave Vanya's hand a quick squeeze. "I'll get you some dry clothes, too." Then he took his hand back and pushed himself up to his feet.

Pulling down his sweater vest (maybe one day he really would get some new clothes, but that required more commitment than he currently wanted to give it, as well as more thoughts he didn't want to think), he nodded to the console with the coffee pot. "Help yourself if you want any. There's coffee in the cabinet underneath along with spoons, and I'll bring back some half and half."

And maybe a few other things, he thought, turning and pushing, disappearing from the lab.
