Outnumbered ~ I Am Number Four ~ Invite Only!

Rosemary laughed lightly at the thought of that, and it made her happy to know that it was a memory and not just an idea. "That sounds really sweet of him." It was easy to imagine a hyper little boy trying to play with her. She wouldn't mind someone like that being her friend.

Gingko hadn't been expecting a counterattack from below, and she ended up stumbling before correcting her posture by grabbing a tree branch. When she faced Amber again, she was grinning proudly. "That's more like it. In every aspect of life, you have to pace yourself. Too slow and you fall behind, too fast and you burn out." When she said everything, she meant everything. Fighting, leading, escaping from the Mogadorians -- everything.
"Now that's an excellent move, especially because you can fool many opponents with your size. I don't like the angle your leg is extended at, however. If you practice like that, I'm sure you will injure yourself. Now do that again, but don't lock your knee, and keep a steady stance as you're going down," she said before charging at Amber.

Startled, Rowan froze in shock before closing his eyes and leaning in. After all these years, finally they were reunited, and it just felt so right. When he finally pulled away, he somewhat inconspicuously wiped at the corner of his eyes. With a smile, he looked at her and finally met Esme's gaze. "You're damn right," he said with a crooked smile.
"Here, let me try that again," he chuckled, 'fixing' his voice back to its normal gentlemanly tone. "I missed you so much. How has everything been, darling?"

Alder was being an idiot. He had been trying to find his Legacies by jumping off the washing machines, but now he was stuck on the top of the appliances, too scared to move. "Paige!" he cried in terror. "Help me, I'm gonna die!"

Unbeknown to the encroaching Loric trio, the Mogadorians were completely prepared. The scout team had called in the soldiers, and a team of five had hidden themselves in the scrub. They were so arrogant, they had armed themselves with plain swords, just so they could show off fancy execution moves.
"Three of them," panted Katharine. She and Blair were just returning from their task. "Three Loric are coming. One Cepan and two Garde."
"This is great," Janice cackled. She grabbed Lanette's dagger without her permission and went to her knees behind Willow, resting the cool blade against the Cepan's throat.
"They fell for our little trick," teased Blair.
"Don't worry," Lanette said, "we'll make it quick. Direct orders from Beloved Leader. But sorry, we have to wait until your friends get here. We want to show this to them."
Willow was still silent, still judging. It's a trap, she thought to the Garde, they're waiting for you. They'll kill me once you're in sight, and then they'll kill you all!
"What?" Blair said. "Do you ever talk? Repeat after me: Lorien deserved what it got."
"You will deserve what you get," Willow threatened right back. "You underestimate them."
"Shut up!" Janice yelled from behind her. Willow felt a fist slam into her back, and even as the breath left her, she fought to lean back. Still, the momentum caused the blade to begin digging into her neck.
"You're wrong," said Lanette, "you underestimate us. We are scouts; we'll leave as soon as we're finished with you. It will be up to our friends to take care of your boy and his cronies."
"One second, Jan. The Loric are almost here," said Katharine, cracking her knuckles loudly.
Willow was first to see the head of ginger hair crest over the sandy hill. "No!" she called out. "Run-"
"Too late," came Janice's voice behind her.
The last thing she felt was a chilling numbness that sliced across her throat, and then she felt nothing at all.

Erin had ran after Richie. "Nine, you idiot!" She had cried, reverting back to his old name, "What happened to staying away from the beach. It's a trap, you idiot!!!" She followed him and grabbed him from behind to stop him getting any closer. It wasn't quick enough though. She stopped to see Willow's throat being sliced.

[hilde]

"He was." Said Susannah. "Who else do you want me to talk about?"

"NO!" Yelled Richie. He tried to get away but Erin had a good hold on him. "They killed her! I have to get revenge!" He yelled but then he saw the soldiers get their swords and began to move towards them. "Oh no no no. What are we going to do?" He said in a panic. He raised his sword but his hands were shaking too much from seeing Willow get murdered to fight.

(since the soldiers are unnamed guess anyone can play them)

[honeybee.]

//Actually I think the soldiers are named because they are the group that were with Acacia. (The Girl Scouts)

"Get a grip, idiot!" Erin snapped, though she had gone pale. Maybe Willow wasn't dead yet, she thought hopefully. Willow? Please, don't be dead. She thought before turning to Richie. "We can't just run up and attack them, we don't have the charm anymore. We need to think tactically."

[SunnyJustice]

[I haven't named them yet. You can play ones that you plan to kill, I guess.]

Okay, now Maple was actually going to kill someone. Her anger was so intense, she felt like she could just develop a Legacy and blow the Mogadorians' heads to smithereens. She finally caught up with the teenagers, only to see her sister downhill, lying limply on the ground. In the moonlight, Maple could see dark blood staining the sand beneath her neck. The sight made Maple feel as if she was the one who had just been murdered.
"Leave, now," she snarled at Erin and Richie. With that, she gave both Garde a harsh shove in the other direction before stepping in front of them. She squared up to the approaching Mogadorian soldiers and made a derogatory gesture towards them with her pinkie finger, indicating that they were incompetent.
I will stall them, she thought to Erin. Maple was keeping her mind calm, though anger blazed through her veins like infernal fire. Get as far away as possible. I'll lead them in the wrong direction. When it's safe, we can find each other, but you have to get out of here at once.

"Best mission ever!" squealed Blair excitedly as the Girl Scouts retreated down the beach.
"We killed that Cepan good," agreed Katharine with a proud nod.
"Hey, where's Acacia?" asked Lanette.
Janice grunted and gestured to the dock, where the six-foot-nothing midget was running to join them. "Hey, Cay," she said. "Sorry about being mad at you earlier."
"She was just mad at not having blood on her hands," whispered Lanette.
"I understand," Acacia said warily, catching up with the group. "Are you going to wash your hands when we get to headquarters? That seems rather unsanitary."
Janice laughed. "Girl, I'm not gonna wash my hands for the rest of my life!"
"Don't mind her," chuckled Katharine, a smile on her face as if nothing had happened. As if they hadn't just killed someone in cold blood. Acacia was appalled to see how little everyone cared.
"Yeah. She is way too proud," said Blair jealously, "because she got to kill some old lady."
"She was a Loric Cepan, and what was she, forty?" Janice corrected. "I defeated her honorably-"
"Oh, you want to fight for that honor, Grandma Jan?"
"Let's go!" Janice shouted at Blair.
"Save it for headquarters," Katharine said as the girls continued to run.

"I'll go anywhere you go." Richie said to Erin. He didn't know anyone besides her and even though they had just met Erin was the only person he had left. He still had his sword ready.

[honeybee.]

Please be careful. Erin begged. She didn't know what she would do if her Cepan went the same way as Willow. Ho insane probably. "I'm glad, is gardes have to stick together.Come on" She murmured before starting to run in the direction Maple had pushed them in.

[hilde]

"Let's go!" Said Richie as he ran after her. "So where are we suppose to go? To the house? out of the country?"

[honeybee.]

"We just keep running." Erin said softly. Worry for her Cepan was building up inside her but she told herself to just ignore it. Richie had just lost his, he was probably feeling much worse. "The house is too obvious. If we leave the country it'll be harder to regroup with Maple. We just need to stay out of site from the Mogs."
