Nick Varkan wrote:"Hey, I'll admit I was exactly the same way at her age. So much it's kind of creepy actually."

"And when you were our age did you find it acceptable for your elders to be rude and make fun of you?" Emily asks.

Sid bounces right back into a wall, though she seems to shake it off quite well.

"Dude, what? I thought you were a crazy hobo or something."

"I am darkness. I am the night.

I can give you detention," Will quipped, shifting into his X-Uniform

by **Sidney Young** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 4:44 pm

"Oh yeah? It's dark. I could be anybody." she boasts, knowing full well that she's busted, but figures what's the worst that can happen at this point.

by **Nick Varkan** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 4:46 pm

"No, but it usually happened the other way around. Also, you so don't have the moral high ground little miss burglar."

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 4:47 pm

"That is not my name."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 4:49 pm

"Right, then. I suppose we can see how the Maldon Police handle a no-name suspect, aye?"

by **Sidney Young** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 4:50 pm

"You not no proof. We saw an open door and decided to investigate like the good citizens we are."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 4:51 pm

"Right. Security cameras aren't a thing that exist in England! I forgot all about that."

"My name is Emily Thorpe. I am a wealthy heiress with a dark and secret past," Emily says.

Next time I should talk Molly into doing this with me...

"Pff, that one's totally a prop. The real ones are pointing at the gas pumps."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 5:01 pm

"Let me put you straight here, kiddo. You can either come with me and face the headmistress, or I can drag you down to the county lockup. Mutants get treated REAL well by provincial police, I'm told," Will frowned.

by **Nick Varkan** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 5:02 pm

"Seriously?" Nick groaned at Emily, "You picked that?"

by **Sidney Young** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 5:04 pm

"Like they'd know I'm a mutant." she mutters. But to her credit she's not trying to run away anymore, so she's clearly not entirely idiotic. Just very resistant to admitting she got caught.

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 5:06 pm

"Please do not take Sidney in," Emily begs Nick softly. "She is kind and does not deserve to be sold."

"...I would also like it if you do not turn me in as well."

by **Nick Varkan** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 8:04 pm

"Whoah, whoah, back up. No one's selling anybody."

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 8:14 pm

"Do not be so naive, Mr. Nick," Emily says.

by **Nick Varkan** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 8:21 pm

"Correction, no one here. This isn't some criminal run hellhole like Madripoor where that shit is legal," he said.

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 8:30 pm

"Incorrect. Thousands of people are sold in the UK a year," Emily says.

by **Nick Varkan** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 8:39 pm

"Illegally, by kidnappers and murders. Law enforcement and superheroes can't stop everything."

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 8:58 pm

"How very comforting," Emily says.

Apparently Onyx Jr. was a bit of a sarcastic little snot.

Nick gave Sara a 'little help here?' look.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 9:17 pm

"Alright, first of all... Who are you? I mean we know you're who was attached to Nick for a while but who are you?"

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 9:24 pm

Emily looks at the sidewalk, "...I am Emily Thorne. I am a normal teenage girl."

"I was not grown from cell samples of a mutant slave, if that is what you are trying to imply."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 9:49 pm

"I wasn't but... wait. That can't be..." she mumbles.

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 9:52 pm

"Yes. It would be impossible," Emily agrees. "The much better explanation is that I am a wealthy heiress with a dark past. And Sidney is my friend."

"She drinks people. I do not know what that means," Emily admits.

by **Nick Varkan** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 9:56 pm

Nick heard Sara and his mental gears clicked into place.

"Holy shit... that weird slave and master talk all makes sense now..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:34 pm

"Are you... a clone of Onyx?"

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:36 pm

"I do not know who that is," Emily says. "My mother was called number forty-four."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 1:33 am

"She's a former slave from Madripoor. She can turn herself entirely into Darkforce, the same stuff you're made of right now." she says, holding up her scanner again to get a read on her.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 12:29 pm

There were some physiological differences, both in physical structure and genetics, but Emily was definitely related to Onyx somehow.

"Former slave?" Emily asks, obviously struggling with the concept.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 1:24 pm

"I won her in a poker game and set her free. It... took a while for her to be comfortable with the idea and she... still kind of works for us."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 1:42 pm

"...You are making a very poor argument for this being very different from Madripoor, ma'am," Emily says.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 1:57 pm

"It's what she wanted!"

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 2:33 pm

"Did she ever mention me?" Emily asks, sounding a bit hopeful.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 3:17 pm

"I don't think she knows you exist..." she says carefully.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 3:20 pm

"Oh." Emily says, looking sad.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 9:47 pm

"You can come talk to her if you want to..."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 9:49 pm

"Really?" Emily says, brightening up considerably before forcing her smile down. "Yes. That will be acceptable, miss."

by **Nick Varkan** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 9:55 pm

"I think she'll like you just fine," Nick smiled, though he didn't actually know Onyx that well.
