"And where would you suggest...hero?" replied Ouroboros mockingly at Kane's villainous act.

"Don't call me a hero." Kane frowned, insulted by the title. "I am in the middle, pulling in both directions as I see fit. Either your hideout or my apartment. Either one would be safe, it just depends which one you feel most comfortable with. If Miasma and G9 has merged I will need to get the information from Melony on how to defeat it." he smiled slightly. "I happen to know that you have her too."

Ouroboros smiled and said, "Not surprising. I know a place better. Take my hand."
Ouroboros stretched a hand out with fingerless gloves.

Kane took the hand without hesitating, not really worrying where Ouroboros was taking him.

The day before
Staring in the ceiling of my home, trying desperatly to sleep. Counting sheeps, hogging a few pints and drinking milk and pills. Nothing really helped. No matter how much I tried, I was just unable to sleep. I just couldn't help but think. Think about how there should've been something I could do. Kane, Melony and Miasma. I failed them all was the only thought I seemed to be able to keep for more than a minute.
Earlier, after I had woken up and left the DMW-club, I had visited all the people on my informant list in a desperate gambit to see if anyone of them knew where Ouroboros was, or who the large man that took Kane was. None of them knew...they had only assured me that they would look and try to find out, but none of them knew.
As a form of last resort, I sent out a rumor that I knew where Miasma and Ouroboros was, but I doubt that Ouroboros is so dumb that he'll fall for it.
That night I got almost no sleep.
((<""> means 'translated from another language'))
"Now you should be looking for information or other occurances involving an archeological dig in the region by the NCUoL some 3 years ago. There should be records of it. The proffessor's name sounds like castle or kessle, but I could not find out his name, participants were, among others I assume, Edmund Moore and Barry Jones."
"Right." I replied in my head without saying anything, I turned to the police reception.
<"We are looking for a group of archeologists that supposedly came here 3 years ago. The group have disappeared and the last thing we know is that were supposed to be around this area on some dig or something. The name of the lead professor was 'Castle' or 'Kessle'. Most likely Castle. Other participants were Edmund Moore and Barry Jones."> I said in German.
<"Hmm...I see.."> said the man behind the reception <"Give me a minute and I might find some information."> the man turned to his computer and started typing. Meanwhile I turned to Mr. X and the microphone in my head "Do you think they know anything?" I asked him.
"Know anything?" Mr. X repeated in a amused tone "That depends on what you mean with that. 'Do they know what happened to the archeologists?' No. 'Do you think they know that they were here?' probably. But, now that we're here we'll hopefully get some answers, either directly or indirectly. It all depends on whether or not the police actually investigated the disappeared archeologists. If they did then either the government didn't think they would find anything or the government had nothing to do with it. But if they didn't investigate, well, then either the government ordered them not to, or they just are that lazy." Mr. X shrugged "Either way I doubt we will find out more than 'they came around here 3 years ago and dug in area X outside of the city'."
I just nodded and turned to my earpiece "Heard that Edmund, our friend believes in government conspiracy theories." I said smugly
"Of course I believe in the government conspiracies! But don't call them 'theories'! That is a word invented by the government to make us think that they are not seriously plotting anything!" Mr. X mocked.
I smiled under my mask before turning back to the police receptionist
<"Found anything?"> I asked
<"Yeah, no, not really. So far I have confirmed that a group was here 3 years ago matching your description. However they didn't find anything in the area so they moved on to elsewhere. I can give you the location of where they dug around trying to find things or if you wish I could tell you where the moved to afterwards. What do you think?"> the man asked us
I turned my back to the man "Edmund, the man says he has confirmed that the group came through here 3 years ago. However he tells me that they found nothing and moved on. Do you want to go the dig site of theirs or do you want to follow the directions he has about where they moved to next?"
((Sorry for 'controlling' Griel here gnomes, just wanted to make this conversation. If I am out of line, HCM me or say so in the OOC and I will delete this part of this post.))
Xion's base. Yesterday evening. Before the Oubliette's break.
Griel was wandering through the halls of Xion's base when he came across an old man sitting in what appeared to be an indoor garden. The old man was 'Hermit' one of the catalyst powered supers. Unlike most of the other supers of his age he had chosen to not make much of himself, retiring to a small hut at the edge of NC. And there, he had lived ever since, not bothering anyone or let himself be bothered by the world around him. It was strange that this man would chose to follow and help Xion with his plans.
The old man chuckles as he sees Griel "Good evening...G9 was it? Or are you another such entity? Xion didn't say how may of you he had befriended." Hermit stood up and started walking over to Griel "No matter, allow me to properly introduce myself. I am Hermit, currently in charge of this base while Xion is outside impersonating generals and whatnot." Hermit laughed again "It is a pleasure to meet you." Hermit bowed.
At the same time, elsewhere
Whistling on the tune of 'He's a jolly good fellow' 'General Sasdarh' walked through the corridors on his routine check of the base. However, on this particular day, he stopped near an air went very close to the only prisoner here at the Oubliette. There, he pressed his hand towards the air went, and out of his hand a gray goo spilled out and materialized in the form of a metallic spider. The spider looked up on the general, who handed it a card. The spider suddenly revealed two crab like claws and with one of them it grabbed the card. The general nodded before resuming his cheerful whistling and routine walk. Meanwhile the spider-crab-hive would make its way through the air ventilation system until it arrived in a special room.
The room was filled with scientists, computers and medical equipment. Confined to one of the tables, lay the unconscious objective. The spider-crab looked around for a bit and located the different cameras in the room. Slowly, trying not to make to much of a sound, the spider made its way around the room to the closest camera, which it then hacked to show a video-clip of the scientists walking out of the room upon its order. After having done the same to all the cameras, the spider-crab activated the video-clip and begun its work.
Nanoseconds after activating the film, the spider-crab shot out a small gas-grenade filled with knockout gas that would not affect the already unconscious prisoner. It took a mere 5,6 seconds before all the scientists fell unconscious to the floor. Room secure for the next hour or two until the scientists woke up, the spider-crab started on the last part of its mission.
Crawling over to the unconscious objective, the spider-crab grabbed the objectives arm with both its claws and discharged most of its power in an electric shock designed to wake up the objective.
With a roar the prisoner woke and the sudden moment made the spider-crab release its grip, almost throwing it down from the table.
"What?! Where is the scientists?! Where is Jones?! Who woke me up?!" the objective shouted in fury((sorry if this is against his character Berny, but I want to release a post so just give me this little piece of dialogue freebie)).
The spider-crab crawled over to the hand-restraints of the objective and using its claws cut it lose.
"What the-" The objective said as it felt its hand free, but the spider-crab ignored him and proceeded to the next restraints which it cut. Soon enough, the objective was free of all his restraints and he stood up and looked down on the spider-crab. He opened his mouth to talk, but before he could, the back of the spider-crab opened to show a speaker and a message played.
"Take the card!" the voice of Xion was heard in the room and the spider-crab wave with the claw holding the card. The prisoner took it and looked curiously at the monopoly card before laughing.
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Xion, son of Morte and a fan of your work. Now you probably got a lot of questions, but before I can answer anything know this. Many, many years have passed since your imprisonment. So many that those that once were behind your capture are now all dead, most suffered an unnatural one at that. As I said, I am Xion, and I offer you this gift you hopefully is holding now. Know this, me and my compatriots are ready to free you at any given time, all you need to do is rip the card into two and we will come within an hour or two to help free you. Or, you can keep the card to another time if you feel that you like yourself in prison, but know that the card doesn't last forever, as I might die or have something else happen that renders it useless. The spider-crab before you is also another gift. In it is a bomb you can use to blow up the door. Use it well. Have a delightful evening."
((The name 'Sasdarh' is a restocking of the word 'Hard@ss'

"That sounds wrong, but don't ask how. So I'd rather do both, look at the first digsite and continue down their path." Edmund said while waving away a pidgeon that got a little too curious.
"And do you think you can turn up the mic at your end? I could hear X making noise but I couldn't make out everything he said. And also tell him that everything is just theory untill proven. Same goes for the guy behind the counter. I could follow parts of what he said, but some weren't loud enough and other were to fast. Which means that at least part of my German is coming back."

"Got it." I said before ajusting the sound of the microphone. I then turned back to the receptionist <"Please give us both locations."> the receptionist nodded and wrote down the names of the places and how to easiest get there from the police station.
<"Thank you and have a good day."> I nodded and left.
Outside of the building I looked up and around "Was the sound good this time?"

"Yes, much better. But that part of the conversation I could have guessed. But I don't have telescopic vision, so you'll have to read the note to me, or come up here, or go to a place were I can land without a big fuss."

"Right, got ya. Let me see..." I read up the location of the dig site while Mr. X got into the car we had rented. After finishing I walked over to the car and said "Me and Mr. X will be moving on ahead, alright?"

Ouroboros then teleported, shifting the universe around them to take them to Ouroboros's chosen location. The world seemed to swirl around them and go dark until there was a bright flash and they were in a desert.
"Welcome to the Sahara. Now talk." Ouroboros said.

"10-4, but try to keep to the speed-limit this time around. I have a hard enough time following you as is. Perhaps it might be better if you or X drives, Richard seems to be enjoying it too much." Edmund replied. "I'll be following you from the air, as the name of the place does not ring any bells."
Edmund trailed the car towards the digsite. During the drive he could hear X, the Commissioner and Richard talk about something, but he could not make out what they were saying. Either the mic was turned down again, or something was interfering with the signal. Edmund did not bother to respond while in the air, the wind whipping past the mic would make him nigh-on unintelligible.
After several miles, the car pulled next to a big hole in the ground a bit outside the outskirts of Vienna. Edmund swooped down and landed in the hole itself.
"It seems nobody bothered to fill up the hole." Edmund said as the Commissioner, Mr.X and Richard got out the car and clambered down into the hole.
"And next time you guys want to keep me out of the conversation, turn the mic off, instead of low. Hearing you three mumble isn't exactly of morning radio stature." Edmund said snarky.

"Well at least this is less public." Kane muttered, closing his eyes as everything became white from the heat. "Miasma. Since you want it dead I take it you know what it is, sortof at least. The only way I know for sure it will die is to kill its host and not letting it settle in a new one. If it merges with G9, another shadow, they will become much stronger and probably not even need a host. I don't know at all how the new beast may be destroyed."
He paused and tried to open his eyes slightly, but it was all white so he gave it up. "I really hate your choice of location." he growled, then continued his monolog. "Melony trusts me very much. If the information I already have is not enough I can break her much easier than you can. Also, Miasma will do anything to free her. You could use that."

"I see..." said Ouroboros. "Well isn't that interesting. Unfortunately, this isn't anything relevant to me. I hope you have signal here, because this is going to be quite a very long distance call. Goodbye, Kane."
With that, Ouroboros teleported away, leaving Kane all alone in the middle of the Sahara desert.

Griel smiled a little bit. "Indeed. A pleasure to meet you as well, Hermit." The old man found his own shadow shaking his hand. "I wonder, you seem to like being left alone to yourself, away from humans. Why would you agree to helping Xion? How did he even find a recluse like yourself in the first place?"

Kane stood for a moment, not really sure what had happened. For some reason his source had been wrong, Ouroboros was not interested in knowing about Miasma or have help breaking Melony. His face tightened in anger as he realized the trouble he was in. Even his regeneration wouldn't be enough if he got too severly dehydrated here. His clothing would be enough during the night when temperature dropped, but during the day he wasn't really sure what to do. He had been to the desert before, but then he had known how far he had traveled into it. For all he knew he could be just a couple of miles from a city and then travel in the wrong direction. He picked a coin from his pocket, heads north and tails south.
"Heads." he whispered as he caught the coin in the air. "Here we go then."

Ouroboros teleported straight into Melony's room, where she lay on her bed under her covers. She screamed and pulled the blanket further up on her.
Ouroboros yawned and said, "Sorry. Teleporting from such a long distance does make things a little inaccurate. But there is nothing to fear from Kane anymore...."
Kane was walking for miles with no avail until he saw a little oasis in the distance with a hut there.

"Kane?" Melony asked nervously from under the covers. "You saw him? What did you do to him?!" She yelled as she wrapped the covers tighter around her.

The cooler air from the oasis made the hut visible to him, so Kane set his direction toward the hut. The heat was burning at him, and he guessed it would take him almost an hour to reach the oasis.

"Well he wanted to talk to me. Of course he didn't bother to ask me what my phone number was so he instead decided to attract my attention by blowing up Langsley mall, killing three in the process and wounding many more. If you want, I'll bring a TV so you can watch the broadcast yourself." replied Ouroboros as he removed his fingerless gloves, revealing scarred hands. "Anyways, so we went to somewhere private to talk, and I left. As far as I know, he's still there."
When Kane did finally reach the oasis, he found a water hole with some grass and trees around it. There were a couple of animals around it and a small straw hut next to it.

Kane sat down on his knees and drank directly from the water, letting it moisten his dry mouth. He gulped in as much as he could, then walked toward the hut and knocked on the door.
