Postby Nick Varkan » Wed Dec 07, 2011 4:20 pm

Nick was walking through the Quad, arm-in-arm with Tala.

"So... I miss anything good while out kicking ass?"

"Fajitas...Wanda and I making Trev's head 'splode, a city hunt. Nothing as thrilling as saving the world and taking names."

"I can imagine." she hugged his arm.

"But now you're back and in my clutches." She gave her best evil laugh.

"Yeah..." he said, scratching the back of his neck, "He was the one who got us the hell out of Dodge before the government asshats got to us. Kiiinda awkward."

"That's my Daddy and you shouldn't be embarrassed, it's his job, he's been doing it a whole lot longer then most. He's good for a reason."

She tip up on her toes and gave Nick a kiss on the cheek.

"I'm sure you were very brave and heroic in your own right."

"I punched a giant flaming skull in the face. You're damn right I am," he smirked before countering by kissing her forehead.

"You're right. I'm the self saving kind of princess." she smiled.

"But if I ever did, you would be on my list of heroes to call."

"Sure." She stood on her toes and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"For my hero, who came home in one piece." She gave him a soft warm kiss.

Tala felt a familiar feeling in her head, as if someone had abruptly decided they didn't wish to be seen.

Tala pulled away slowly and chuckled. She focused her ears, her eyes changing color as she listened for movement in the grass or the sound of gravel.

Nick's expression grew serious. "What is it? Do we have company?"

"Wait... you laughed... why did you laugh?"

"Nothing certain, just a familiar sensation." She smiled at him and took a step back, but kept a hold of his hand.

"No danger. I think I felt Dad disappear. It's hard to explain."

"I don't think he's spying. If he were, he would have been hidden from the start. He knows we can feel him when he suddenly goes "not here"." She chuckled.

"If he's here you can meet him. If not, we can head someplace, I don't think we'll be followed."

"Chicken." She chuckled and looped her arm through his again.

"Love you Dad, talk to you later." She said smiling to the open Quad.

As they got out of sight, Nate reappeared. He was standing in an odd stance with his hands in front of his face, palm-to-fist. His breathing was even and his eyes were closed, almost as if he were meditating. He let out on long slow breath and immediately took the shortest route off campus not in the direction that Tala and Nick had gone.

"Awesome," he smiled. "War stories over drinks. I'll tell you about the evil me if you tell me about how you made Anderson's head explode."
