"Sir" Kyle said, turning to Logan "It's like that episode of Star Wars, and if you've seen A New Hope, you'd agree we should follow her."
Kyle stood up from his crouched position and fired at the Exiles, he turned and jumped through the hole, Matrixia had created.

"F*ck me" Athan cursed, remembering the last time he had tried this. He squinted up at the sun, whose rays bathed the church more forcefully now that the window was gone. Athan ducked beneath a pew, scooped up the book ((sorry, if you guys already have it, ignore this)) and checked his gun. The clip was full.
Athan broke into a sprint before he even fully stood up. The initial three pairs of gunshots were joined now by one more shooter, but Athan didn't think about it. Step by step, he drove himself through the chaos towards the illumination of the sun. He pressed off of the ground, and dove for the warmth and safety it provided.
The gunshots were fired after him. One, two; but when they realised they were firing blind into the glare, they stopped. Athan crashed down into the street next to Kyle and Matrixia.
"Come with me" Athan said, placing a hand on each one's shoulder "We are going away now"
Agent Flanders flew through the window, gun blazing. His cold, mechanical precision would've cost all of them their lives. But they were no longer standing there. Their bodies blurred, then faded away, and they disappeared.
The Agent landed, stunned beyond belief. How long had it been since something like this had happened? Only once before...
"Base, this is Agent Flanders" the agent spoke into his mike "We may have another anomaly..."
*twenty feet away*
"You're an idiot"
"Shhh" Athan said, not wanting to be seen. In a flurry of motion, they had dove for the nearest sewer hole. Athan had recalled that the Agent's had been glitchy as of late. It looked like the gamble had payed off.
"We need to get back to Blackwood" Athan whispered, and began walking down the path "Something tells me that we will find the answers to Logan's questions in the Chateau." ********* Gear ((who I think is still sleeping in Blackwood, again, correct me if I'm wrong)) shifted his head for a second. He thought that maybe he had heard something. But when no second sound came, he stopped listening and tried to resume his rest. Still, always a little paranoid, Gear layed his hand gently on his gun.
Inside his cell, the prisoner Damascus continued his escape plans. Months ago, another prisoner had somehow escaped. And when that prisoner had left, the complexities of the program surrounding him had suddenly become clear. Whereas before the coding had been like an unclimable wall, suddenly Damascus saw it for the frail, mud wall it really was.
And in a few more seconds... done.
The bars of the cell fell away. Damascus stood, awestruck. He was free! Good Lord, he was free! Damascus picked up the chunk of stone he had been using, and rushed out into the open hallway...
... to discover that he had made a terrible mistake.
Every other cell in Blackwood was also open.
Gear remained patiently sleeping, not even suspicious of what was going to happen next.

"Blackwood, what's that? Sounds spooky." Kyle's attempt at a joke was returned with silence "Logan?" He mumbled, breaking the silence "I want answers from him. And his bodyguard, Matrixia or something." OOC: Sorry, I had this crazy idea that someone else would post.

"Hm... in due time" Athan lied, knowing a conversation with Logan was not likely. He was not entirely certain who the new addition to their crew was. He had, however, helped them out of there, and that was enough for a temporary trust, if nothing else.
"I think, however" Athan said "That the future ought to be more of a concern than the past. What we do next is always as important, more so even, than what has transpired before. Because we can change what we do next. So tell me, friend; where do your alleigances lie?"
ooc: I think we're heading toward a conclusion for DATDM here. I got an action packed finale, as well as a reveal and a direction for the rest of the series planned. Lets RP our way back to Blackwood. btw, where the heck are the others?

"Whatever is left of Zion." Sadness could be heard in his voice. Kyle followed Athan and Matrixia followed Kyle.
"What about you?"
***************
The sounds of gates opening awoke Gear, who's eyes opened instantly. Swinging his legs over the the chair, he stood, listening, his hand lay loosely on the hilt of his sword.
OOC: Sorry for the awfully short posts. Matrixia doesn't seem to have been on for quite some time, however it appears, Hard is checking up on the site.

Athan's ears perked at this. Perhaps there was an ally to be found in this man?
"The same" he said "Come with us; we have some final things to wrap up before we can begin our mission." ********* The three of them stood before the tree that led to Blackwood. Athan and the others had taken extraordinary efforts to not be followed. After all, why not? They had thought that time was on their side. Athan was the first to approach the tree, but stopped dead in his tracks. There was a noise, a kind of crack. An animal rustling some bushes?
No, it was more distinct than that. Another crack, followed by another.
Suddenly, three men seemed to sprint right out of the tree. In a moment of shock, Athan didn't move to defend himself as they tackled him to the ground. He felt the hard beats upon his face, and the kicks grinding up his stomach. Where were they from? How many were there?
What the hell was going on?

Kyle dragged the man off Athan and threw him away.
"Move" He told Athan as he lay there. Kyle stepped back from the three men, his fists out in front, ready.
One of the men split from the group and atack kyle. He was ready, blocking the attack, he countered it by pushing the man's arm away, turning on his feet then sending his foot into the man's stomach.
********
Gear peered outside the door to be welcome by screams and cheering, suddenly a body flew through the air and crashed into the door, luckily for Gear, he had backed off and was safe.
OOC: Should I leave Gear where he is or fight his way out?

ooc: I dunno, I was hoping to drag him into the fight. I guess we'll see how he's doing when we enter Blackwoood. btw, Where the heck are our other members? ic:
Athan drew a weapon from his pocket, throwing his arm towards the three men as he stumbled to his feet. Athan turned to look where he was aiming. Kyle was locked into a fight with one of the Exiles, while a second was charging Matrixia. The last man came running at Athan. There was a wild look in his eyes, a rabid desperation; he did not even register the gun leveled at him. The man ran with an incredible speed, yet with no grace at all. There was a clunkiness to his movements; it seemed out of synch with the rest of the world.
Athan had no time to note anything else. The exile was suddenly only ten feet away. Reflexively, Athan fired a shot. It tore up the man's shoulder, but he continued coming forward. Moving to take a defensive stance, braced his arm so that the exile came charging into the hilt of the gun.
While the gunshot had no effect, the exile seemed to lose itself for a moment, staggering forward as Athan stepped aside. His composure regained, Athan calmly pressed his weapon to the back of the Exile's head. He fired.
Looking back to the other's, Athan saw that...

OOC: Hard has been on MSN and he's been on here, he just hasn't posted anything. Matrixia, I don't have a clue.
IC:
Kyle side stepped, grabbing the Exile's arm as it flew past his head. He twisted the Exile's arm around his back, locking him where he was, the Exile struggled to break out but failed, twisting the Exile's wrist, there was a loud crack, the obvious sign of a bone breaking, however the Exile didn't even wince.
Mad with getting out of the lock, the Exile left himself open, Kyle spun, his foot connecting with the Exile's face. The Exile fell backwards, but quickly sprung forwards, pinning Kyle to the floor, he could feel his breathing become weak as the large hands were clasped around his neck, squeezing.
Suddenly there was a bang, Kyle's gun went off and the bullet ripped the Exile's chest.

ooc: Okay, so Matrixia's not here, so I'll fill in. ic: Two, three gunshots, and the Exile fell limp before Matrixia. Athan resisted the urge to blow the smoke from the barrel of his weapon. He was exasperated; the sudden burst of adrenaline had thrown him off.
"I don't like this..." Athan said, for lack of something more thought out. A kind of curiosity-- maybe fear-- gripped him as he staggered towards the tree and entered Blackwood. *** "****!" Gear yelled, as the prisoners suddenly mobbed him, clawing and tearing at him. There were so many of them, and they moved so fast it cut the air around them. In seconds, they were all over him, pinning his arms, beating on him. The violence came from all sides. He was floating in a sea of pain, his vision becoming clouded with blood.
Then, for a second, the world went white. Everything seemed calm, pristine. Gear wondered if he was dying, or if he had through the pain become one with the world. Everything seemed to stop; he couldn't hear or see anything.
The moment passed, and the world blurred back into focus. The grim, dimly lit hall took returned, and it took his eyes a second to adjust to the bleakness. The savage cries had been dulled into growls and hisses. He was lying on the floor, still in bloody tatters. Not sure of what was going on, he carefully and silently drew his gun.
Two people were standing at the entrance. A third heaved him up by his shoulders and quickly dragged him back.
"What the hell is going on?" Athan asked, gun still trained on the mob.

"Something or someone changed the code, this isn't a prison anymore" Gear spat some blood out on the floor and wiped his mouth, he glanced at kle, who nodded his greeting, but received none from Gear.
"What happened with you?"

"Not important" Athan said, watching what had been a beautifully layed out plan crumble before his eyes. In an uncharacteristic loss of control, he spat out a loud curse word, pounding his fist into the stone wall. The exiles howled and roared, moving deliberately slowly, inching closer towards their armed opponents.
"There was a reason we were here..." Athan told the group "What Logan wanted, the kid, Loki... he's in the Chateau! We have to get to him... but the ****ing chances of that now..."
Athan swore again, and fired off a shot into the crowd of Exiles.

OOC: he guys. Did my boys miss me? sorry i was gone for so long. Shit happens!
IC: Mattie boredly changed the clips in her desert eagles. " Im getting really sick of this hide and go seek shit. Why cant we just get answers?" She shot a nearing Exile in the head and continued her bitch rant. " WHY CANT WE HAVE A NICE DAY!" She kicked another Exile into 2 others. " THIS IS WORSE THAN FUCKING NEW JERSEY!"

Gear drew his sword and with a quick swipe it was by his side.
"There is only one option" He muttered slowly, he thought about turning away and leaving, but he also thought about the new 'team' he was in. "We fight"
"Loki? Who is he?" Kyle asked but no one answered as Gear quickly ran into the crowd, he cut down and Exile and ducked, spinning to the side as another Exile attacked him.
