You know things were bad when...Kat didn't even stop to think that maybe they could like, hit it, because God knows somebody would've accounted for that by now. They should go back to wearing crosses and shit. Couldn't hurt.
Yeah, so, swoopy guy was getting kind of tired of all this running and whatever. His job was to grab people, not give them exercise. Humans, Jesus. Anyways, he just kind of flung his cloak out wider, descending on Assassin first, for shits and giggles. Snapping the cloak abruptly shut around Assassin, he vanished. Well, swoopy guy vanished, Assassin actually found himself dumped rather hard and unceremoniously into the middle of a small-ish dark room, that was kind of grimy and gross. Surprise!
"No, no, it's totally legit, I can assure you." D: But Nick was trying so haaaaard. He kissed her again, pulling out the puppy dog eyes, "Pretty please?" ;-;

Assassin felt the ground move from under his feet but then the next thing he knew he was landing in an almost tangled pile with a curse and a groan. He felt the floor for a moment as he sat up to look around. "...." He pushed himself to his feet, ignoring whatever he had just touched and reached out to touch a wall.
~~~
<giggles> you're funny ^^ <buuuut she totally gave his ass a squeeze so i guess he got points after all and another kiss oh ho he's movin' up in da world>

Kat skidded to a stop, nearly running into a tree, "Isaac?" Hey, what, not cool. What the hell just happened there? She yanked her com out of her pocket, scanning it quickly just to confirm her own fears that his signal had dropped off the map entirely before she hit the call button, "Hawk! Hawk, you better be there, and you better have Nick with you." Seriously.
Ha! Nick was like score, but then Hawk's com went all ring-y on them, and Kat sounded mildly freaked out, so maybe she should answer that >.> "Um..." Worst timing ever, kthnx.

Assassin continued to move his hand across the wall, hoping but not really expecting to find a door or window of some kind. As he traced the second wall he felt uneasy about being in the room that was seemingly smaller to him then when he started. "...damn it." He pulled out his com link to call someone and paused when it seemed to be blank.
~~~
ugh...really??....<tch...she squirmed away from nick again and got her com out> yeah kat i'm here...so's nick...what's wrong...are you ok??

"Isaac's gone. There was this...I don't even know what, but he's gone. Ask Nick if he can find him." Kat leaned against the tree for half a moment to catch her breath, her eyes jumping around the trees in search of anything that moved. "Please." She added, as an afterthought, for whatever reason.
IT WAS A SHRINKING ROOM D: Actually it wasn't. And it did have a door, but it was massive, and only let in an itty bit of light around the edges, which wasn't much use at all. Yaaaay.
Nick blinked, listening to Kat through the com. He shrugged at Hawk with a small nod, "Tell her I can try..." Totally wasn't gonna work, but he could try.

Assassin sighed, kicking the door roughly before stepping back and making a note that that was not a very good idea. He ran a hand through his hair and scratched the back of his neck before sitting down. It seemed that at least Kat had gotten away or had been taken somewhere else, a thought that made his stomach tense.
~~~
nick's gonna try ok?? <oooh lord> where are you?? <hawk got up from da bed> we'll come get you too ok?? <or like meet out front or somethin'>

Kat pushed herself away from the tree, pacing for a moment, running a hand through her hair, "In the forest. Don't come here, I'll come to you." You'd think that! "Just...tell him to try really hard." Please?
Nick pushed himself off the bed, pausing long enough to grab a shirt and throw it over his head, before teleported...and bounced back a half second later, stumbling slightly with a somewhat confused expression on his face. Well. That didn't happen often. But hey, let's try again, just for the hell of it!

Assassin rested his elbow against his knee and put his head in his hand to hold it up. He was still thinking of a way out of the room but he wasn't sure what he could even plan to do once he got out.
~~~
mmk...<looked at nick and he's all bam right back there> uhm....what's wrong Nick?? <yeah seriously was that like....da shortest trip ever or somethin'>

Kat blinked, beginning to skirt her way through the forest towards the base again, "What do you mean, 'what's wrong'?" Ooooh, didn't like the sound of that.
Nick shook his head, holding up a hand as he tried to teleport again...and again, ended up exactly where he had started, which was absolutely nowhere, "Uh...Well, where ever he is, somebody doesn't want him found." x.x Good news, not so much.

Assassin muttered something darkly and closed his eyes for a moment or two to block out the room as he thought.
~~~

Kat put her hand against her forehead, stopping for a moment to think. So Nick had kind of been the extent of her plan...and now she needed a new one. Great. "Right...Right, okay..." She glanced sideways sharply at the sight of movement from the corner of her eye, "...Hey, Hawk?"
Nick nodded, reaching over to take Hawk's hand, "Yeah..." So hey, that was a mood killer.

Assassin was beginning to miss the villians that used to come in and talk everyone's ear off. They were easier to tolerate then the ones who locked you in a room with nothing but your own thoughts.
~~~
<extreme mood killer for sure but aww hand holding> yeah Kat what's up??

Yeah, they had an unfortunate bout of lesson learning, and genre savvy-ness about them that was somewhat unnerving.
"Don't come into the forest." Kat took a couple quick steps backward, "Like, no matter what. Do not come into the forest. I gotta go." She basically dropped the com and turned around sharply to run like hell because shit, there was another one of those things. Seriously pack up and move out of the base. Just do it.
Nick looked at Hawk's com link oddly, because...you know, that was kind of weird-ish, even for Kat, "...Should we listen to her?" Hmmm?

When he couldn't think of anything Assassin sighed and pushed himself back until he could rest his back against the wall across from the door.
~~~
uhm...whatever got isaac must be after her too....she's gonna need help...and if we loose her too then what are we gonna do?? <really?? nothing> c'mon...let's at least get outside...<tugs nick and they runnnn>

So there was pretty much no way that Kat could outrun the sketchy bugger, what with the swooping through trees and whatnot. It was all giant teleporty cloak of doom and vanish without a trace-ed. Dick move. And then it basically dumped her on the floor in the same small room as Assassin, with the same lack of ceremony and whatnot. What can I say, bad guys are cheap on space. "...ow." Well fuck.
"Yeah...You're right, lead the way." TO THE OUTSIDE. Maybe with a stop for shoes. Except that outside didn't look so good when there was no Kat coming out of the trees...actually there was a whole lot of nothing going on, which really didn't seem good. At least it didn't to Nick, eesh.

Assassin blinked, pushing himself to his feet to walk over to where Kat had landed. "I take it you stayed in the forest?" He said quietly, holding out a hand to help her up.
~~~
da hell's goin' on?? <looks at her com> kat's still in da forest but...like...not movin'....<oh god hawk thinks she's dead now> i...dunno what to do....<boo she was like freakin' out 'cause she didn't want nick hurt buuuut she didn't wanna leave kat>

Kat sighed, covering her eyes with one hand for a moment, "Yeah...Stupid move, I know." She accepted Assassin's hand after a moment, pulling herself to her feet and squinting in the dark. It was almost hard for her own eyes to adjust, which sucked. She reached out, touching a wall with her hand, "Soooo...I'm guessing you have no idea where the hell this is either." Besides somewhere sketch.
Nick looked at Hawk's com, because he had yet to pull his out for whatever reason, frowning, "If you think she's in trouble, we should go to her." Duh.

"No. Not really." He shrugged slightly and watched her for a moment. "Everything's fairly solid and so far you're the only other person around."
~~~
<gaaaaaaah> i know she's in trouble...<duh> alright...c'mon...let's head to where he com is and uhm...i dunno we'll figure out part two like after....<into da creepy forest oh god>

Kat ran her hand along the wall, taking a few steps to feel her way around it, "Of course..." They never got the dungeons with the secret passageways. She turned around again to face him, frowning faintly, "Are you alright?" Better late than never.
HEY. KAT WASTED LIKE TEN SECONDS TELLING YOU TO STAY OUT. Gah, why does she ever bother.
Nick nodded, "Into the forest it is..." Greaaaaaat. That was a great plan they had going on there, except for the part where there actually was no plan.

Assassin nodded before holding his hands up somewhat. "I'm alright. Dirty...and uncomfortable but alright." He nodded his head again at her. "What about you?"
~~~
mhmm....uhm...keep your eyes peeled or somethin'?? <oh god this place was creepy> i wonder what got them...anyway...
