Re: Reaching Salvation: Post-Acer Part 6

"Okay..." Benji reluctantly agreed.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"Awesome!" Kaylee grinned, "But be careful around Melaney...she's easy to scare it seems."

[quackers are yummylicious]

Benji raised an eyebrow. "Am I really that scary? I was under the impression that I appeared rather harmless."

[Creation of Pokerus]

"It's not that but something happened to her, I think," Kaylee shrugged, "She's really timid. You'll know what I mean when you see her."

[MrMissMrs Random]

OOC: No, this will work.

Erika looked confused about Nathan talking about flow signatures, but nodded. "Sure."

[quackers are yummylicious]

"Huh," Benji responded, before nodding. "Alright, let's go, then. I'll do my best not to be intimidating."

[Stabberz]

"We'll move quicker at Super Speed." He said awkwardly. "Do you mind if I pick you up?" He had already locked on to the flow signatures he was searching for.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"I don't think it's about intimidation," Kaylee sweatdropped, leading him to Sage's house.

[MrMissMrs Random]

Erika looked a bit wary of this gesture. Acting childishly won't make this less awkward. She gave a nod of consent.

[Stabberz]

Nathan gently picked her up hefting her in his arms and then suddenly blurring. Not going too fast, but just fast enough to get them going quickly. He dodged past obstacles as if they weren't there and within three minutes he came to a stop in front of Josh and Al.

[MrMissMrs Random]

The two boys jumped instinctively when a flash came in front of them, but stalled when they saw a man holding what appeared to be a slightly dizzy Mrs. Hadden in his arms.

"I should've closed my eyes..." Erika mumbled.

Al stood forward slightly as his face showed distrust while looking at Nathan.

[quackers are yummylicious]

"Well, it must be. People are afraid of something because they find it intimidating," Benji frowned, not really understanding.

[Stabberz]

Nathan frowned back at the distrust before setting Erika down and checking on her. "Once you've recovered, please tell these two boys your real name."

[MrMissMrs Random]

"Real name?" Josh said, confused. "It's Mrs. Hadden!"

"Her maiden name, Josh." Al told him calmly, though he didn't know if it was true...

Erika moved closer to the two boys. "My name is Celeste Erika Knight."

Josh looked dumbdounded, while Al seemed to have trouble breathing.

Erika moved closer. "Please tell me yours. Please." Her eyes seemed to have given a sheen of desperation.

"Joshua Justin Knight." Josh said, as if he memerized it by heart.

"Alfred Rivers Knight." Al replied solemly.

A minute passed, before the two boys ran into Erika's arms, all three clinging to each other.

Sage was sitting in her house, since she didn't have anything else to do, reading a book on Latin wording and such.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"Think what you wish, I guess," Kaylee shrugged, "Here's Sage's house."

[quackers are yummylicious]

Benji let out a small sigh, shoving his hands in his pockets. He didn't really enjoy meeting new people, but he supposed he had to do it. After all, how else was he supposed to make this place his home?

[Stabberz]

Nathan hid a half smile. "Glad I could reunite the the family," he said calmly before folding his arms. "I've still got a few more people to speak to, thank you Erika. I'll see you around."

Kira tossed and turned, sleeping about as well as Luke normally did, a troubled look on her face.

[Big Uri]

Luke cast a worried eye over her, peering through a curtain of dirty blonde hair.

Tom collapsed his house behind him. He didn't like it, and he'd prefer to start over than modify it. He began walking away, drinking from another bottle of whiskey.

[MrMissMrs Random]

Erika looked up at Nathan with a face full of emotion. "Thank you."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

Sage opened the door, just to go grab another bucket full of water...coming face to face with Kaylee and someone else. "Hello...how may I help you?

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira started to mumble, occasionally letting out a quiet yelp of pain.

---

Benji backed up behind Kaylee a bit. "Um...hello. I'm Benji Armistead."

[Big Uri]

Luke shook her awake gently, a worried expression on his face.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"Hello...I am Sage Éclair...pleasure to meet you." Sage said formally.
