Accidental Crier

The Catacombs

The streets are covered in soot, white clouds hover over the shops with the Café being a haven for most as it wasn't damaged.

Finn looks up and see's Julia attempting to help him. He scours the area and doesn't see the kids. What he does see is a massive hole in the streets that has sucked down buildings into the abyss it appeared.

"They're gone!" is all Finn could muster. Julia responds with, "Phideaux DuGray has them, I can almost guarantee it!"

Office Buildings complete in destruction are the view TJ didn't want to see. He gets caught up in the equity loss, and proceeds to be distracted. Logan makes a call to the prison to see if his father had anything to do with this bombing, to which Timothy declines but does state that Carlotto Cotta has been released.

Marco swiftly scoops up an unexpecting Heric and takes him behind the bushes that lay around- still green as though the natural earth hadn't imploded around them.

            "What are you doing? You have to stop this Marco! You need to listen to me Heric/Tom, these two are more concerned with you being a prize, they don't want you. (Heric attempts to get out of his grasp to no avail) I love you man!" Heric pauses and gives in to a kiss from Marco, then allows him to get him on his motorcycle and flee.

Logan and TJ didn't even notice...

Sorrell informs Tu that he hasn't seen Twain in days. Tu attempts to connect with Mason, who is preoccupied with protecting Penny from a raging Marquis.

            Tu goes through the compound and cannot locate Twain, he knows something is wrong but none of the Criers are all together, everyone is everywhere. He calls Noel.

Jesper drives up to the empty Hewinson building and decides its time to reunite the team. The city of darkness is hustling sounds of an emerging choir of danger. The Marquis has taken over most of Cheltenham Street and is taking a name all on his own. Jesper receives a call from Finn, telling him about Maddie and the chaos in Kinney Cove. Jesper makes a call to the hospital where Fox has been staying for respite and with a few words he reawakens the spirit in Fox.

The Criers are all in danger!

Nina makes a call to one Lucky Dahlia and gloats that his once lost fortune is about to be acquired. The Ekati is this close to being fully recovered by herself and neither he or Mother can do anything about it.

With utter dismay Lucky throws his phone across the room, startling his held woman in the room. Lucky knows that Phideaux is behind this somehow and debates letting a secret go. He tells the servant on the other side of the room, to call Lucas its time we make some headway here. The woman shutters when she hears Lucas' name.

Olivia breaks into Lord Logan's estate to acquire the Diaz hidden fortune. Santiago assists her, with his memory altered he believes her to be his mother. She introduces him to the idea of how Logan Storey murdered his family and took over the hilltop estate. She pleads for him to remember the codes in the stairwell. Santiago stares at the staircase and recalls the code. (If you remember it is the same code that awoke Sabastian from Andre Woods) "Wood Magic" He declares and states we need the book to Olivia. She now knows the next problem will be to get the book from Twain and that means somehow getting into the compound, and around the Guard!

The old room where he once tore apart to find the book, now is his haven to dive deeper into the drug of the poppy. With an entrance hidden from the home setters, the man in white gladly comes to fix Twain up. Cowered next to the dead fireplace, the cold within the room was echoed through breathes he took. The man in white knows he doesn't recognize nor understand anymore. Twain believes he is in a constant dream, searching for his love of the professor. The man in white lets him know that soon he will meet up with the love he once gave up. Twain believes it to be Sabastian. Where as Austin truly means Andrea.

            Twain's arms are poked throughout, his feet were becoming numb to the injection and on this day he will utilize his neck for consumption.

            Austin smiles as he leaves Twain with a batch that should do the trick.

            He leaves, knowing this shall be his just desserts.

A little Cave or abandoned bunker space was hidden out through the corn fields near a set of hills or as some would be led to believe abandoned mine shafts. Thought to all have been destroyed after the war, here lie this one cave on the Forest Family Farm.

This is where Cooper, Lincoln and Maddie end up. They awake on the catacomb floor. There are many entrances to tunnels and they realize they have fallen into the earth. Or did they?

The brooding Andre Woods, covers the hole a midst the Forest Family Farm field. He makes his way towards the three abandoned yet maintained homes. He enters one that could have been considered the main home of the lot. As he stands in the kitchen he can see  a barn through the south window. This barn seems to be in pristine shape. To the East he sees the home in the middle. On the refrigerator a small banner for the 1991 Capshaw County Fair. He makes a call to his boss and informs him the drop has been made. Behind him as the North window barely catches the home of Xaviers as prominently stated on the mailbox which barely stands tall. As he goes outside he briefly glances toward the corn field. He didn't realize it was such close quarters, where Phideaux grew up.

Phideaux locks up his office in Kinney Cove and heads down to his awaiting car. As he gets inside he is greeted by an awaiting Nina. She is without Gideon. He says "You've done well my daughter!"
