"wow so that’s the base." Art said looking at the enormous base.
"no wonder no one can see it. its all reflective. wow that’s amazing..." he said just noticing that he was complementing his captures.

"Oh be quiet, Art." Andi said grumpily as she followed Phoenix and Shadina off the ship and into the vast hanger.
"Welcome to DetaB!" Phoenix grinned. "We'll be heading up to the dorms momentarily so we can find you a suitable...cell, I guess. Um..." He looked back at the pair and blushed. "I'm afraid we've only set up for one guest, so you two may end up sharing. But don't worry! I think they've set aside one of the big suits, with your own private bathroom and everything. Lucky guys." Phoenix didn't even stop to ponder why a couple of Blocker prisoners would get a better room than a longtime member like himself. It was mostly because no one wanted to bother with letting them out to go to the bathroom regularily.
"Whatever," Andi sneered. She was still upset about being a prisoner on her first mission, and putting up with Phoenix's cheerful demeanor. To Andi he seemed like a bit of an idiot. But then she recalled how scary he'd been when he burst into Art's room unexpectedly and shivered. Maybe it was a bad idea to brushhim off as a moron so quickly. She took an unconscious step closer to Art and crossed her arms over her chest.
Phoenix ignored them both as he got hold of a bunch of hover platforms to carry them through the base to wherever the dorms were located.

the platforms came at them and they boarded. it didn’t take long for the platform to reach the dorms. they walked down the long hall way and noticed some people looking at them some whispered to each other "ah its the humans!" and other things, even some insults. when they arrived at the dorm thay walked in and the door shut behind them.

(OOC: I know this is the third place I have him in, but he's kind of important...)
Jayson was sitting in a chair on the far side of the room, reading a book. He looked up at them when they came in. "Long time no see Andi." He commented flatly. His face held no expression as he looked her over. "You haven't changed a bit."
Shadina's eyes narrowed as she found out that Jay knew Andi, but she didn't say anything.

Andi stopped dead in her tracks and stared at the man sitting in the chair. Her jaw slackened in shock. "Jay...Jayson!?" She gaped. "What the hell are you doing here?" She demanded. "Were you captured too?"

Jayson stood up. "No I was not captured. I live here now." His eyes flashed with an unidentifiable expression. "I'm a psychic." He brought up an illusion that made the room seem like it was on fire. "My life is a living hell." He walked out of the room, the illusion fading.
Shadina whistled. "Man, that kid's messed." She looked at Andi. "But I don't blame him."

Andi jumped when the room randomly set on fire and shrank away from Jayson. She remembered training with him at the Blocker base, but she'd never known that he was a psychic! BUt Jayson wasn't from Earth...could that mean that psychics were appearing on Moon and Mars now as well? It was too much to even think about!
And he'd said...his life was a living hell? She supposed it would be, being a Blocker turned DetaB member. She wondered how the other psychics treated him. It likely wasn't very well., They all hated the Blockers, though that was to be expected. "I guess so..." She said in response to Shadina's remark, watching Jayson as he retreated out of the room.

"Andi...how do you know a physic? and why would he be working with the Blockers?!" Art was extremely confused. for one if it was that there where physics on the moon or even mars...could that mean that the Physics have already taken over without The Blockers knowing about it?!

"I...he was a Blocker when I met him. We were trained together but...I never knew he was...I thought he was normal!" Andi burst out. "He must have developed powers and left the Blockers, that's the only explanation I could think of! No one who knew they were a psychic would go and join the Blockers. Not since tyhe Blockers are trying to destroy..." She cut off there and frowned. Destroy them. The Blockers wanted to destroy all psychics.
The propaganda, of course, worded things a bit differently. Convinced their members that psychics were a threat to humanity with goals of taking over the colonies on Moon and Mars. But that was ridiculous. So far from what she'd seen, psychics were normal people with an abnormal problem, mainly that they were different from 'normal' people and spent their lives either in the slums on Earth or in DetaB trying to stay alive.
Andi sighed heavily and slumped into the chair that had been previously occupied by Jayson. Was there any justification behind the Blockers' purpose? She had a lot of thinking to do while she was locked up in here.
"Well, you guys get off here," Phoenix said suddenly. "Please enjoy your stay at hotel DetaB." He bowed playfully and ducked out of the room, promptly disappearing.

Shadina looked at the door that Phoenix had just left through and hesitated. She hadn't been dismissed, yet... Dace. She nodded to herself and left, not bothering to lock it. She walked right past Jayson who was under one of his illusions in a shadow. Once she was gone, Jay dropped the illusion and went into the 'cell'. His temper had cooled off and he was ready to face his past. He rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
"Sorry 'bout that exit earlier."

The pressence of Jayson was disterbing to Art. for one he just learned that some how a phycic had been able to be a blocker and now that same same person was standing infront of him... JUST STNADING THEAR!
Andi was confused still at the fact that his home was in a way not safe. he sat in one of the chairs and waited to see what Jayson had to say, or what Andi had to say to him.

"It's alright," Andi told Jayson awkwardly. "I could have been a bit more tactful, I guess." She stumbled over what to say next. She and Jayson hadn't exactly been friends during training, but she knew him and had seen him around. They said 'hello' in the hallways. Things like that.
But she'd never expected to see one of her Blockers here of all places. A sudden thought struck her, "Were you a spy? Or did you just not know...?"" She asked, hoping he wouldn't be offended by her accusation. If he was a psychic then there was no telling what he would do if she angered him.

Jayson didn't really know what to say. "Well..." He hesitated, "I wasn't a spy." He frowned. "And if I didn't know about it, then wouldn't my brother and sister be psychics too?" He hesitated again. "I didn't think they would actually kidnap someone." He remarked finally.

"I've never heard of it before," Andi agreed, thinking back to all the reports of psychic activity she'd ever heard. "But from what I've gathered the high-ups in the Blockers are planning something big...really big. Something the psychics don't want to happen. Phoenix mentioned that Art here's father was involved in a project that they couldn't let continue. They're hoping to blackmail them into stopping the project in return for Art's safety." She paused and looked at Art and shared a concerned look with him.
"But Phoenix doesn't seem to believe that they'll give in. And neither do I. From what I've heard the Commander is more concerned with killing psychics that with his own son. If they call this bluff, do you think they would actually kill us? I mean, if they were hesitant to even kidnap us, they wouldn't actually kill us, would they?" Her tone was desperate. Her eyes pleaded with Jayson to just tell her they would be alright. Even if it was a lie.

Andi stared in complete shock and horror and Vision filed them in on what was going on. "You mean...they're actually going to kill me?!"
"Well, yeah," Phoenix replied uncomfortably. "But don't worry! Vision has come up with a foolproof plan. All you have to do is trust us."
"And why the hell would I trust a psychic? I'm a Blocker, in case you've forgotten!" Andi roared. "Shouldn't you want to kill me?!"
Phoenix sighed and frowned at her. "I'm not a murderer, Andi." He siad quietly, "If I shot you that would make me no different than the Blockers that keep killing off my friends. I don't want to kill people, and I don't think you do either."
Andi stared at him for a moment before finally looking down at her feet. It was true. She'd had a lot of time to think about her reasons for joining the Blockers since she was taken by psychics, a lot of time to think about what this fueding between psychics and Blockers was really about. She'd decided that they weren't really any different from everyone else. "Alright," She agreed finally, "I trust you guys."

Vision nodded and then began to fill them in. "Mire is going to transport you two and Pheonix to a transport ship. Mirror's going to imitate you." She pointed at Andi, "Illusion-" She jerked her thumb at Jayson, "Is going to create the illusion of your-" She pointed back at Andi, "death." She pointed at herself. "I'm the one going to lie to Fist." Then she pointed at Art. "You're just going to disappear in the confusion." Mirror and Mire were pale.

Andi was almost literally trembling. "This is all so unreal." Four days ago I was preparing for my first assignment, and now I'm conspiring with a bunch of psychics to escape the DetaB headquarters, of all places. "Well then," She sighed, "Let's do this."
Phoenix nodded and looked at the rest of the group. "I'll take Andi, Jayson and Mirror down to where the execution is supposed to take place. Mire, Art, you guys get ready. We'll need to be sneaky to get past all the people hanging around here."
Andi took a shaky breath and stood up, following Phoenix with her hands folded in front of her. This was it. It was really happening. And this still could all be a trick. They could just be toying with a doomed girl before she died.
"Hey, relax," Phoenix said as he put a hand on her shoulder, seemingly reading her thoughts. "You can trust us." Andi just blinked at him. With a soft smile, Phoenix took out his gun and slowly removed all the bullets. "Here," He said, pressing them into her hand. "Take them. Souveniers."
Andi contiued to blink, bit her lip, and finally moaned, "God, you are so weird."

Mire grinned shakely. He was afraid of what Fist would do, just like Mirror. Mire grabbed Art in what would be considered a bear hug. "Hold on." He then nodded and disolved the floor, pulling them both under. Because Art was with him, the human could breath normally. Mire had formed a bubble around their heads. He solidified the floor above them. Mirror then turned to Jayson who made her turn nearly invisible. He then did the same for himself. Vision nodded and opened the door, planning on turning aside minds who thought to look to closely.
