"They say a boy wants a girl like his mother, and well I guess he sees a lot of you in her." Ty says looking through the sky light, he looks different in the light his features more defined as the light causes his shadows to stick to his body.
*My mother wishes me not to speak to you, you to cute to be one of them. Why did you join them?* Mathius ask inquisitively attempting to break the mental barriers. He was young but strong, he had more power than most at his age.

Solara's eyes blaze at this thought but her tone stays even, "That girl isn't anything like me. Someone needs to explain to him that (please do not swear) up kids stay that way, and that they are chores to be around." she pokes the screen a bit more humming to herself.
................... Midnight expression darkens as she turns away from him her hand withdrawing from between the bars careful not to touch them. She shoves the tray towards him with her foot *I am not cute. And I am one of them. And I didn't join, I was born."her mind is now interested, lucky daddy didn't say which shadow to bring. She could get out now with him if not for Jack. No... play the long run. He manages to break through a wall only to be horrified by what he sees
*flash back* A small Midnight dressed in a small black dress a red ribon in her long braided hair is at the foot of a throne a bear in hand that she seems to be talking to happily as a young boy is dragged up to the throne. The man on the throne is fearsome, "Midnight sweet heart..." she looks up from her spot smiling at him and standing her hands at her sides one still holding the bear, "Daddy wants you to go change that boy like he showed you with the rat..." she shakes her head firmly a terrified look on her face,"No daddy please,the rat was mean." his hand comes across her face hard,"You will obey as Magnus does or you will spend time in the Restalphia." she cringes slowly turning to move towards the boy as her hand transforms into a blade cutting both her and the boy as blood meets the boy changes to a dog that snarls leaping at her. "Kill it" the command comes from the man, "Oh daddy no. He is innocent!" she says as the dogs teeth meet her arm sinking in. The man makes no move to stop it, "Now!" he thunders lighting rushing from his hand at her as she hits the ground sizziling her bear falling in a pool of blood as the poor boy dog creature is impaled on her spiked hand. Only then does the figure smile and beckon her forward, she obeys tears in her red eyes, "That's daddy's girl." he says lifting her chin forcing her to look at him as he lifts her small form to his lap hugging her and patting her hair his voice soft for a time, "Daddy is pleased, make him happy, that is all you are for." she nods until he seems to speak to her silently the words moving into Matt like fire *The next time you hesitate in a mission I give you, daddy won't love you anymore." he then throws her forward yelling for her to leave which she does scurrying off pausing only for her bear. *memory ends* She turns her eyes red with fury "Get out of my head. You have no right to be poking about in nightmares."

A cackling sound issues frm jac, though he doesent move his mouth. He looks down, then pulls his sword out. ''Shut it Banshee. Stop invading peoples heads as well.'' A deeper, yet higher pitched at the same time, voice says ''But its so much fun! She's so full of anger, torment. Everything I thrive upon.'' Jack put his sword away, viloently. ''Apologys Miss Midnight'' he says, not catching her eye. ''My companion, as usefull and as well bound as he is, can be a nuisance sometimes.
Inside Midnights head, Banshee's voice echoed again. ''Oh little baby midnight. So alne. So weak. So...'' strange sensation runs through her mind. ''Tasty. Oh, how you suffer. I could make you strong Fast. Powerful. And all for a little price.''
Malevolent salutes to Gerard. ''I'm ready sir. Permission to go with them.''

"Hey big red, get out of her head before I shred part of you essence!" Mathius yelled entering Jack's mind and making his psychic avatar form claws of shadows. *I have no place? You think these things bother me?* he asked Midnight throwing up dozens of barriers in case Solara tried to enter his mind. *When the pain becomes to much just say something I can give you shadows.*
"No Mal, you are going to find someone for me. Cross the warp and find me a daemon, he goes by the name Crakken. His followers will be dressed in black and chant of shadow gods. We need him..." Gerard said as Magnus, Rage, and Ten blobs of sinew and other foriegn objects made there exit. They landed on a rooftop over looking a park and a street that even at this hour still was inhabited by people.

Rage stared at the people on the street, they hadn't noticed the group of nightmare walkers appear on the roof. As the people wandered around doing there daily business, Rage remembered when he was like that- weak, small, powerless leading out his pointless life like an ant. Rage felt incredibly superior looking down at them and decided to cover his face by pulling his hood up. He now was only waiting for the orders.

Midnight turns only to nod at Jack, "Inner daemons and outer daemons tend to be...pesky." she turns back on her side so that the light doesn't catch her skin again *I AM NOT WEAK!* she shrieks at Banshee but he can sense a curiosity from her *What price?* her voice echoes in Banshee's head.
*What do you mean Shadows?* her voice hits Mattius in the head suddenly *and you shouldn't know of horror, corrupting others especially so young is not a task I take pleasure in.* she rolls to her other side and he can now see her face drawn in anguish at the thought. *When will they let me out of this cage?*

*Young? I may look 18 but I'm actually well over that. Warpcrossers age funny, I was 22 when I met my mother I looked 4 or 5!* Mathius smiles swirling the shadows from the floor onto his hands the into dool shape, * Your mind was screaming for a new toy...*
(Blood reread thatnposy cause you would know nothing of the daemon that was posted for Harbringer)

She looks at the toy briefly a pang of grief for her bear and childhood overwhelming her as she backs away from it *No. I don't play with toys.* her thought seems fierce *And your age doesn't matter, you don't know grief or hardship, and I don't want to share them with you.* her head sinks slightly *When will they let me roam this place?* her thoughts are bored as she begins to braid a section of her hair.

Banshee snickers again. ''What price. Oh i could name so many. The difference between my prices and your level of acceptance would be to great to comprehend however here is one thing...''
Banshees psychic avatar, a hooded shadow, wreatehd in fflame, (think Mini-Balrog) stpped forward. ''If you can free my from my prison of steel, I will give you power beyond your dreams. Enough to take vengance on your father, your brother. Everything and everyone that made you suffer. And I can give you this back too, at least in your mind.'' A shimmering portal appeared, inside thier head. A voice sounded out, Midnights voice, as a young girl. Banshee's avatar reached through teh portal. Midnight could hear her voice now- it was the day her bear was taen away. Banshee took ahold of something and Midnights memory changed slightly- Her bear had vanished, Gerard knocked off his feet by invisible force, rather than he take it away forever. Banshee retreived his arm, and a slightly battered version of Midnights Bear was handed to her. ''A promise of things to come, if you are interested.''
Mal nodded, though when Gerards back was turned he rolled his eye. Thinking to himself *Just like the Idiot Gerard to Send a psyker to retrieve a daemon. Their easiest targets just coming to maek a deal. Huh.* He entered the warp anyway, and began the trudge away.

Midnight's own avatar was somewhat stunning when it became physical before Banshee's avatar. It was a small girl, the same red ribbon holding her exceptionally lon wild hair at bay. She looks at him with a huge lack of trust until he holds the bear out to her and she rushes forward taking it in her arms hugging it and pulling at it's fur."Boo." she says simply the bear almost as large as she is. She looks at him, "How do I free you from the steel?" she says smiling the bear still clutched in her child-like hands. ******************** As Matt prepares to answer her Solara comes barging in the look on her face very dangerous and Matty has seen it before as she comes forward the height difference no matter to her as she drags him from the room with a nod towards Jack and a wave to Midnight only given out of politeness. SHe doesn't speak as she drags him but he knows she is mad just by the way her lips are in a line. Finally they come to her computer room and she shoves him into a chair, "Matty, how could you in under an hour disobey the only rule I gave you?" her voice is level, "I don't know what you see in that girl but she is seriously disturbed." she shakes her head in disapointment, "I said stay out, wanna give me a good reason you didn't?"her voice is very threatning and he's never seen her look so mad. *Ty bless me with your prescence so I don't strangle your son."

Jack nods back, but doesent look at Matt. He knows Matt should be getting in trouble, but he understands his reasons. He gets up and walks over to Solara, though he leaves a camera with neural feedback watching Midnight. ''Sol... Before you get mad at him, consider everything. I could have sent him away, but I didn't, so I'm partly to blame. I have my reasons for that too- He's not my son, I do not feel like ordering him around is aproprriate. Not only that, but i remember the rules I broke when i was in love with you. He's broken a single rule for love. I broke nearly every rule the imperium of man has, and if it wasn't for the warpcrossers, I'd be dead. But my point is- Mathius cannot be blamed for trying to follow his heart. Its part of the warpcrosser motto.''
Harry came in at this point., saying ''Trust your Head, Follow your Hearts, and all shall be well.'' He nodded to Jack, Matius and Solara in turn. ''As always, Jack, your reasoning skills impress me. Were this a court of law, I belive the jury would be swaying into your favour. But of course, The other party is yet to present her case.'' He turned to Solara, waiting.
Banshee, still inside midnights head, snickered. ''There are 3 ways. Number one, and by far the longest, is to ritually de-bind me. However this requires about a week of preparation adn about 6 hours nonstop chanting. The second, mark your arms as I instruct you and Die by the sword, then i can take your body. The last, easiest and most fun way- Kill Jack, the swordmaster.

Ty entered the room knowing it was his turn to be the cool parent. "Jack's right Solara, wanna go back into the old days with all the rules WE together broke?" He looked at his son and patted his shoulder.
"Mom this is so ridiculous, I was interrogating her essentially." Mathius snapped breaking his psychic connection with Solara and jumping back into Banshee and Midnight's conversation.

Jack loks at Ty. ''I think I broke more rules than you did. I sided with... oh i cant remember his name. Solara, your psy-thereapy works wonders.'' He sits down, back beside Midnight. ''Any plus, I still don't play by all the rules.'' He said, a knowing smile palying across his face.

Midnight continues to hold the beat in her mind squeezing it's fur and standing very still for several moments, Matt finally breaks into their conversation and her expression darkens as the they disappear leaving him alone once more an even deeper wall of darkness in his way. "I won't chant, and I think I'll take whichever of the other two options comes to me first." she holds her bear a little longer, "Thank you Banshee." He can sense she wants to be alone now because he watches her retreat away from him with her bear dragging along the ground. .................................................... Solara folds her arms spinning in her chair back to her consoles poking a few buttons until two pictures pop up on the screen one showing Cassie and the other Gerard, "Wanna take a wild guess who these two are." she points at Cassie, "She worked for the Imperium in a special unit squad, she disappeared during her final mission. What this squad wasn't told is that they had daemons living inside them, her's was a Slaanesh one."she pokes several more keys, "She is now marked MIA. But a soldier who worked alongside her says she slept with this man." she points to the screen with Gerard on it, "which brings us to the least lovely part of an already hellish story. That man is a test tube product, who is reported to have been killed, although clearly he wasn't. He was created with the purpose of murdering and being sold like an animal as a merc." she grimaces, "At some point in time these two very disturbed individuals met up and slept together." she clicks the screen off, "The product of that unholy night is now sitting in our cell barely moving." she turns back to them, "And let me be blunt, the little I can gather from that girls clouded mind she is very... VERY abused and unloved." Solara glowers at the men before her, "That girl is borderline split personality bi polar, she is a danger to us and anyone near her. She wants to commit suicide." she shakes her head, "I'm not mad at Matty much, he's old enough to make his own choices, except when they involve crazy mass murdering young girls who aren't even to blame for their crazy mass murdering tendencies. " she breathes in, "Then as a parent someone has to step in and say you can do better." she looks at Jack and Ty, "Look you two had problems of your own, and so did I, we were in a lot different circumstances then Matty is. That goes for you too Harry, relationships and love were the only thing we had. Matty has more than that, loving friends and parents." she sighs "Whatever, but don't come busting into my room when that girl breaks your heart and stabs you. Because I am washing my hands of this and letting the true love angels have your back." with that she turns tapping things again and muttering about the foolishness of men, clearly having dismissed them all including Harry who she really shouldn't.

After a couple of minutes of silence Rage grew angry and shouted "WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE AND WHAT ARE THE ORDERS?". His patience grew thin and a red mist covered his vision and he ran to some stairs nearby and ran down them. Rage ran at the crowd of people- his tentacles extended and his skin became purple and scaly. He grabbed the nearest person with his tentacles and crushed the man's throat. Most of the crowd ran away but about 10 people attacked him. Rage crushed the nearest's throat and threw it into the crowd of people charging him. Rage then grabbed two of them at the same time and threw them together, knocking them out. All but one of them then fled and the man who was left charged at Rage before Rage knew what hit him. The man punched Rage in the face. Rage touched his face and smiled as the blood trickled down his face into his lips. Rage took off his hood and grinned at the man. The man then jumped on him and started to strangle him. Rage burst out into laughter for the man could not strangle him because of the scaly skin protecting his body. The man realised his mistake too late and Rage's tentacles were then around his neck. Throwing the dead body off of him Rage found the two unconscious bodies and broke both of their necks. Finally Rage went back to the roof top and said "So what do we do now?" in a surprisingly polite and formal tone.
