"How Does a Sagittarius get out of a
Warzone w/o losing themselves or the War?"POV: Ayinde Williams(Gemini IV)
John was staring at me with a wicked smile on his face when he said "I don't think you know what it is were getting into." I stared back trying to foresee anything that scared me but all that came to mind was the loss of Kathleen & Nicole, I asked where it was we were going. John decided to start walking instead of talking. I followed until he stopped while turning around and said "My house is kind of a warzone." Memories flashed in my mind at the thought. What seemed liked faded black & white photographs fused together forming a reel of cinematic history that I remembered which gave
definition to the living memory of what I would describe as a warzone. I envisioned Kathleen taken over temporarily by Purity as she rushed toward me with a silent battlecry then my own inner struggle with my former; Air. Several other flashes crossed my mind until John placed his hand on my shoulder and said that we could talk about it after we conquered what lay ahead. I nodded and checked my surroundings.There were industrial machines all
around us. Lining the street leading up to his house were several large ice
machines that lead to even bigger ones until you could see the ICE company logo painted in giant red letters that bled icy cold blood as you read the title over and over again one under the other. His house appeared shortly behind the Ice company quite massive. There were several rooms and a large back porch with extensions still being built. Everything about House Sagittarius screamed unfinished innovative projection. Not bad just incomplete. John stopped short of the doorway that led to the steps going up to the front door.
He looked at me and said "We are going to be here awhile." I mustv'e had a puzzled look upon my face as I said "How long is that exactly?". We both raised an eyebrow and looked at the front door. I could now tell he didn't know but I said nothing further. He said a few other things like "Stay away from my twin she has limited focus in her control over her abilities." "Or care to to be honest." He added. I started to ask what he meant but I just dropped the eyebrow and prepared myself mentally. John walked up the steps and went to open the door but just as his hand touched the knob I saw his hair stand up a little bit. We both then turned to look just behind us. My own hairs were beginning to dance along the lines they inhabited along my scalp. I took a look over at John and without moving his head his eyes centered on me and he said "Gawwwd... Look at that!"
I turned back as I saw none other than Corpion begin to phase into the frame our point of reference. It is hard to explain its as if he was just suddenly there and even though clearly we were just transported the same way it's still pretty cool to watch someone else arrive just after you did especially out of well... virtually thin air. Corpion then looked up at us and waved his hand until we did the same. Of course thats when he closed all his fingers except the middle one yelling "You assholes couldn't wait!" John yelled back saying "That's how your coming, really thats how your coming?" I started laughing until I heard the door unlocking.
