War Is Coming Communications.

Things are finally making sense again. I'm taking an online summer class and tempting a few mornings a week for the summer. But at the same time part of me wants to be more useful, so where can I start?

*Damien*

Everything ok for you and Parker? I know you both will talk when your ready but I still worry.

[Sidney Prescott]

I'd like to ask something. I'm thinking that this ball will be a good thing for a lot of us. I know Parker is going, and I would also like to attend as well. I have all I need for it. But.. I would need a date to accompany me to it. I understand these events usually require people to arrive in pairs. Might seem odd if one goes there as a lone wolf So, what I'd like to ask is, would you like to be my date to this event? I'd spoken of it with Parker and decided I'd prefer it to be someone I know, as well as someone who's in the same situation as I am, and also understands my situation or mindset better than a random stranger I haven't met yet. Or they already have someone going with them

I've seen a few people posting about the wishes they've made and there's some pretty awesome things being wished for. For anyone wishing for enough money to start a business, I'd love to help you out. All this business knowledge in my head should be put to good use. So if you want to pick my brain I don't mind. And no charge to anyone who's displaced. I'll just charge other people.

[Florence]

The last time I tried to talk to you you were a kid. Lois said you were who I needed to talk to about helping with the medical center. Is there anything you need, money wise? I'll be glad to help out.

[Catwoman]

So apparently my facetwin got arrested for drunk driving. Promise me you will not let me be that stupid when we do the whole me drinking martinis in my tux thing goes down.

I have no idea what to even wish for.

Powers are tempting but so is not having to worry about money.

Alright, that was.. interesting. Bit of deja vu there. Twice now in this place was I turned into a young person. At least I didn't have any memories of Hell or the Cage during all that. I'm glad I wasn't told of it or found out. I liked that time in my life, it was simpler then. And didn't yet know of my destiny too A child those ages to learn about hell, it would break th I thought people were talking of zoos when I'd read it, trust me, ignorance is bliss and Sanctuary was nice too. Glad to see how these apartments worked out. And the picnics were fun, and the park. And seeing Jedi powers

But now that things are back to normal, or as much as passes for it here, I should get back to the manor and check up on things there. And it's my home Oh, and wishes! I'd thought carefully about it. I had wished before of money, my family home, and for protection against harm (inside the manor, plus extends to any I invite into it). I decided on a power this time. I now have the ability to teleport to any location instantly. No need for long drives or flights (unless I want to), but mostly in case of emergencies when a quick escape is needed. And I can be available if anyone else needs a teleporter/magic taxi thing, like the others that do that here.

Can someone come to the manor? Damien's been turned into a kid and I'm the only person here who is even halfway stable at the moment emotionally.

I can't do this by myself...

I'm supposed to be back at the academy! Neff will not be pl Except he did seem like he wants to be a mentor to me, maybe he will let this go Looks just the same. Mostly. I don't recognize some of the photos in a couple rooms. But why is it in Kansas? I do not know or understand how this gigantic house could be transported from Chicago to here. Surely, my uncle would have told me first? Or my cousin Mark at least. And I checked, our uncle would have no reason to move the home, his company doesn't exist here. Or anywhere! That's insane. He wouldn't do this, he'd have bought a new place here already instead. Uprooting the family manor does seem a bit drastic Is he crazy now too, his brother was kinda nuts at the end when he tried taking me into that church to k

Uncle Richard? Anne! I can't find you in here at all. Got a sense there are others but I don't know why th Mark? Please speak up or come out of hiding. The game stopped being funny hours ago. If I'm back here, then you are too. Anyone has seen him, he's sorta blond, my height, cadet uniform, also carries his trumpet everywhere. I need him to tell me what's going on, since I'm doing a bit of a ruddy job on my own.

Ok, I'm totally at a loss at what to do and I'm pretty sure Edward will agree. She posted the current state of the manor a few nights ago and we have a new wrinkle, Parker finally came back late last night.

So how do we help them with the whole we're just a lie thing among other things? I also am pretty sure she's not been eating so what would be the best to offer?

But in slightly happier news according to Ed she's somehow gotten Endeavour to trust her, she may be the only one he does trust at the moment. So I think we can call this a big screw you to Satan. Love has been proven to be louder.

Because I'll take any victory we can get right now.

Andy: Ed and I are holding up, just call me later?

*Damien*

I know from experience the whole needing space thing so I'll respect it for now. But Ed and I are not going anywhere. I'll also give you a bit of proof I'm actually me: during the pre battle round of nightmares we talked old movies over tea of all things, still have that list of the ones from the 70s. You also suggested self defense classes if I do go back to college this spring, a way of getting my power back.

For now I'll be happy with knowing you're at the manor or someplace safe. Ed and I are going to call out for pizza if you want some too.

Parker's back too. She showed up last night.

Alright you lot. Since I'm less worried about getting stabbed up now, I need a complete list of everyone we know is in the Cage. I can't be bothered to go through any whining all your posts, so if you know someone in there, speak now or forever hold your peace.

The list as I know it (now with added hero types):

• Sam Winchester → Ruby Winchester
• Dean Winchester → Juliet O'Hara
• Rose Tyler → The Doctor
• Rebekah Mikaelson Salvatore → Elijah Mikaelson
• Hal/Harry Yorke → Lydia Bennet
• Bo Dennis → Kenzi
• Myka Bering → Claudia Donovan
• Amy Peterson → Charlie Brewster
• Harry Lockhart → Regina Mills (?)
• Diana Prince/Wonder Woman → Cassie Sandsmark
• Wesley Wyndam Price → Faith Lehane
• Endeavour Morse → Sidney Prescott
• Parker → Tim Drake
• Damien Thorn → Elizabeth Jennings
• Tony DiNozzo → Martha Jones
• Sydney Sage → Adrian Ivashkov

Anyone else?

ETA:

Okay, if that's everyone, now comes the difficult part. I need, for every person, someone willing to risk Hell to save them. There's a spell I'm working on, it's complicated, it's difficult, and if it all goes wrong everyone involved could be dragged into the Cage as well. Including me, so obviously I really hope it does work. But first stage, I need to have enough people volunteering. Have I sold the idea well enough yet?

[OOC: Okay! So this is the (mod approved) plot for Get Our People Back! As such, while you might feel you've got half a dozen characters who would cover many of the Caged folks, I'm asking you guys to offer one at a time, because we want as many players as possible involved in this! So have a think, offer up the first one, and come back in a couple of hours. If someone else relevant to one of yours still needs someone, go forth and offer them! Make sense?! ETA again! The exceptions would be Sam and Dean's people, since they'll need to be Ruby and Jules! So Briege and Yami, have a second one if you guys want!]

Well its still too quiet at the manor but Andy is making it less lonely. Company is helping on a lot of levels.

Andy: I found the takeout menus so pizza, burgers or Chinese? And you really are good company.

*Medical*

Ed's still sleeping but every time I've gone to check on her the bottles of water/energy bars I leave are gone, that's good right?

As for me the ankle is still a mess but I'll deal.

Can someone come and sit with me at the Manor? Its just me and an out cold Edward (its not life threating, she's just drained and is sound asleep as I type) and I'm not leaving her alone.

Not sure if I can take being alone for too long and I'm tempted to drink.

I'm going to be the one to do it, to ask.

Who...who isn't here? Who did we lose?

What happens now?

The answers in war are never simple. I believe we can all agree, however, that it is time. We move. Now.

Detroit, Michigan is 801 miles away. Do we have a way to transport an army to this point? As many as are willing to fight with us. The front lines will, of course, take on Lucifer himself. He will be surrounded by supporters attempting to stop what we intend to do, and that is where the others will come in. Exorcise if you can, if there is time, but we may no longer have a choice. When under attack, quick thinking and intelligent decisions need to be made. Self-sacrifice is not an option unless it becomes a requirement.

You all have a part to play in this, and I would prefer to not deal with any bickering or in fighting. We stand together or we do not stand at all. You may choose to trust me or you may hate me, but you will follow or we will lose. And losing is not something I do well.

If you are all ready and willing to stand together to end this once and for all, we leave in forty-eight hours. Find transport and soon. Further strategy information will come, and suggestions will be looked at. I am not unreasonable and any help will be welcomed.

[Sam Winchester]

You, however, tie up your loose ends and go ahead of us. Do what it is you need to do. We will be there as your backup if needed. Jacen will accompany you and distract Lucifer to give you your edge on him.

[Jacen]

Stay in touch. Do what needs to be done and let me know how it's going. If we don't have to move this weak and somewhat pathetic army at all, even better.

Anyone near *insert address*? My shoulder is a mess, I'm bleeding and sure the phone is losing battery power.

Worst timing to humor a taco craving...

Please check in? Yes I sound like a broken record but blame the ghosts lurking in my brain for this.

You know, even though I seem to be slipping under his radar, Lucifer's gifts are pissing me off. I'm sick of seeing people get hurt.

[Sidney]

Hey. You okay? Did Lucifer's gift stop bothering you yet?

ETA: [Spike]

I heard you're who I need to talk to about staying at Greaves House once other housing options open up. Any chance I can make my stay there more permanent? I'm willing to help out however I can there.

*a scream could be heard in the manor after Sidney finds the box from Satan*

Guess it was overdue to be my turn for this.

Had to hit my sore spot emotionally speaking.

Think I'm going to get drunk to short circuit the looming nightmares.

Because maybe I am going nuts?

Donna's gone.

She didn't come in for work this morning so I went looking. Should have known Again

She's going back to a good life. It'll be all right.

I suppose on that note, and the fact that Lois just posted, I should introduce myself. Rose Tyler. I own and operate the non-profit Lawrence Youth Center, so if any of our new arrivals are between the ages of 12 and 17 and would like to participate, come by at any time.

I also do an Orientation for new arrivals. Our next class will be Tuesday evening and if you're new and need help figuring your way around this Apocalypse, come by. We'll go over all the basics to get you started and I'll give you what you need to know to get more than started-class schedules, options for employment, school information, and so on.

Can I go back to bed now

And now I have a ten page paper due Monday and I'm locking myself away till it's done.

.

The more I think about the whole situation, the more I think all of us going public with who we are is a bad idea.

It's not only bound to cause a media circus and draw interest from various government groups, but think about who else it's going to draw interest from. A lot of the demons and baddies from this world would probably be interested in the fact that we have two vampire slayers here, plus Angel and Spike and the Winchesters and a lot of other evil fighters. On the other side of things, it's also bound to draw interest from hunters and vigilantes and let's face it, a lot of people aren't going to realize there are shades of gray here. Do we really need all the extra trouble and drama that's going to cause? Because we really have enough of that already.
