Aya narrowed her eyes a bit. At the least bit, she was able to cross her arms, rather than have them at her side near her gun. She looked to Jasper, speaking. "If I had my way, I wouldn't... I wouldn't let you murderers near a stray dog."

She turned to Marquess, walking toward him. "Unfortunately for you, I got permission from someone else. Someone who supersedes this perceived authority... unless you honestly believe that you're going to stop me. Then by all means, try to. Because we're on our way."

"Agent Nascire, we have reached our destination," Cephalon spoke.

"Good, warn me when you reach the boundary," she said, looking back to the group. "Alright, so while I'd love to keep talking to all of you, we're nearing our... destin... ation..." She held her head a bit, leaning on the wall. Her head felt a bit light...

"Ah... start focusing your veils... since you two have been there, you should... know..." She was addressing Marquess and Jasper.

"I don't know what you're trying to tell us or where we're going but ifne," Adam complied, sounding slightly annoyed before he began connecting with her Rift like she had instructed.

"Hey Judas. You hurt my family at all and the Riftborn will take what you love the most away from you, right in front of your very eyes," Marquess threatened Colt, and then with ease, he connected to his veil and went poof. Literally.

Jasper unlike what Aya thought, had no idea about the Children of Orion, thus the light headiness confused him. But considering Marquess hadn't denied what she said, he assumed that he was to connect to his veil. Which was a bit difficult being it was only his second time. Thus he had a feeling he would be the last arrival at the place.

Aya disappeared after Maquess did, still holding her head.

On the inside of the Ether, she looked around the dark landscape, taking in her surroundings. "Wow..." then, she began flickering. "Ah, fuck..." She held her head again, looking forward. Her eyes were then drawn to the gigantic structure in front of her. "What is this place?"

At the top of the steps sat a hooded man in black robes, lined lightly in white. A spear leaned on his shoulder, indicating that he was a guard of some kind. Next to him was a girl dressed a bit differently; donned in some form of suit that melded to her skin with various pieces of sleek armor on it. She was athletic, though she didn't seem to be armed with any weapon. The man looked up, seeing Aya, Adam and Marquess standing there. "Hey! Identify yourselves!"

The girl walked forward, cracking her knuckles.

"Okay....I'm going to need a raise after this," Adam commented as they suddenly appeared in a completely new place. That's when he saw the girl that was starting to walk down towards them, frowning as he looked up the stairs. "There's way too many munchkins with powers around," he replied with a groan, thinking back to the girl he had fought witih before.

"Kara!" Marquess yelled, glomping the girl. He then targeted the guy next. "Milan!" he yelled glomping this one as well.

"Now I'm confused," Adam raised an eyebrow.

"That makes two of us Adam." Colt sighed as he looked around. His fingers twitched, hands ready to draw and fire. As much as he trusted Aya, he had a sick feeling that she had led them to their deaths. "Look, if things go south here..." He was muttering in Adam's ear, these words for the two of them alone. "Take her and get yourselves out of here. I'll give you time."

Jasper appeared just in time to hear Colt. "And why would things go south unless you're planning something?" he asked Colt loud enough for all to hear. "I deal with sound, don't bother whispering," he said, looking confused at Marquess who was attached to some man. "And I thought he only did that with Andromeda and Ares," he said to himself.

Kara stopped in her tracks after Marquess hugged her. "Oh crap, it's Marq," she said, smiling toward him as he went for Milan.

"Whoa, whoa, buddy!" He hugged the Riftborne back, trying to steady his spear. "You almost made the gun fire from this thing."

Aya looked on with an impassive stare on her face. Then, she began ascending the stairs.

Kara turned from Marquess, turning a glare down at Aya, and then to Adam. She didn't recognize them at all. "Stop were you are!" Aya did so, still flickering. "State your business!"

"I'm Ayana Nascire... a... a friend of Amisha Diana. She told me to come here," her words seemed to ring a bell with Kara, who turned to Milan.

The man nodded, looking down at Adam. "Is he with you, as well?" A nod from Aya gave him all the information he needed. "How many of you are there?"

Aya paused for a second. "One more for me... and for him," she gestured toward Marquess.

The three girls would find themselves at the steps of the large building around the same time the drop ship group made it there. Everything had seemingly gone without a hitch after the spirit fled. No other spirits had attacked them, which was a good thing in and of itself - the question still lingered as to what had scared them off.

"Wait, old lady Diana is the one that told you to come here?" Adam asked in surprise as he looked up at Aya.

Colt just laughed at Jasper's accusation. "We're on your turf, not ours." He remarked. "Since you'll pass it on, I don't fire first. Too much on the line." Colt's eyes lingered on Aya for a long moment. "But if you all try something... the fires of hell will consume all of you. That I promise."

"The girl and that guy are okay. The one with the stereo is with me," Marquess said, implying that he found Colt to be not okay. It was then that he noticed the three girls. "Oh look your friend is fine. One of them," he told Aya.

Jasper stared confused at seeing the three girls. Metzli he was glad to see, but Marissa, well last time they met he was knocked unconscious for a bit.

"Jasper there is no fighting here," Marquess assured him. The boy however didn't calm as they came closer.

"Aya what the hell are you doing in the ether? Better yet what are you doing with them?" she asked confused. "And Colt this is no one's turf other than spirits, at leas the last time I checked."

Metzli glanced down, scouring the landscape. Once her gaze locked with the group below, she didn't smile though excitement danced in her heterochromatic eyes. The younger girl glanced towards Marissa and Robin, then back to where Jasper and the others were.

Aya looked back up to the two on the steps. "They're with us too, I guess..."

Kara started to walk forward. She was ready to defend the place in the case of an attack; this many people coming all at once had to be bad news. "You three, state your business. Who sent you here?"

"Picking them up." Colt motioned with his eyes towards Robin, Metz and Marissa.

"Hyde." Metzli answered, almost bluntly, but managed to make her tone pleasant enough.

Kara looked at Colt. "I wasn't asking you, Riftwalker," Kara's head snapped back to Metzli when she spoke. "Hyde?!"

She looked to Milan, who simply shrugged. Then, Kara looked back to them. "... Alright. You have entrance."

The interior was even more beautiful. All around them were multiple stairwells and hallways, all filled to the brim with literature; holographic screens, tomes, research banks, any form of media could be seen. Across the various floors, people in differing variations of white and black robes were walking around; some hooded, some not. They all, however, bore the same insignia.

Aya's head had stopped hurting since she walked in, but she was too enthralled with her surroundings to notice it. "This is..."

"Amazing," Jasper finished for her, taking in the place while simultaneously seeing Marquess go around greeting others.

"He really knows his way here doesn't he," Marissa commented. "He with Null or Riftborn?" she asked about Marquess.

"Our side," Jasper answered for her.

"Well this place is neutral ground," she responded calmly.

Metzli's eyes flickered about the room. If she had ever been excited, this was the time. Silver and gold irises locked upon what would be considered an infinity of information in the building, eagerness easily showing in their differently-hued depths. The newfound elation was almost palpable; you could somewhat feel it in the air.
