Already Over (Time to Rise)

Cade lifted the barrier off of the group, and stepped out to look around. "Bloody hell...", he muttered, looking around at the wreckage.

Skye shook her head, a sudden guilt coming over her.

Albedo appeared in front of Skye. "You have done well, though my child is a little bit more injured than I thought he would be. No matter, I can easily heal him. And you have earned your reward.", he said, presenting the glowing green orb.

She looked up at him and suddenly shook her head, "I don't know now..."

"You don't want him back?", Albedo said, surprised. "Is this about some sort of self-righteous bullpockey?"

She thought to herself though, I at least gotta take the orb, because if I don't, all of this was for nothing.... Skye sighed, and spoke up, "On second thought, give me the orb Albedo..."

Albedo smiled. He handed the orb over to Skye. "You won't need the body. He'll materialize once you're far enough away form me."

She stood up from her knees, and nodded her head.

Suddenly, a purple clad figure cralwed from the wreckage, her mask lost, her face burned and her eyes blazing with fury. "YOU! YOU ARE EVIL! I'LL KILL YOU ALL, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU!", she screamed. Albedo laughed and strode over to her. He kicked her back into the rubble. "Go, now. She'll be out cold for a bit longer."

Skye flinchd a bit, and nodded her head quietly.

Cade nodded as well. "We really should leave.", he agreed.

"Let's get going then."

"I'll call in some transports, I suppose.", Cade said. He glared over at Albedo. 'Next time I see you, I'll kill you. Got it?",he growled. "Looking forward to it, my friend.", he said, walking deep into the rubble.

"He's weird." one of the gifteds murmured.

"Very.", Cade agreed.

Skye shook her head, smiling a bit, "Well at least you didn't have to talk to him."

"So when are those transports getting here?", another asked. "Rgiht about now.", Cade said, motioning to the large vehicles that had arrived just a second ago.

"All right, come on then." Skye said making sure the group got onto them first.

"Wait a minute...", Cade muttered, looking around. "Dammit. My bike's gone..."

"Sucks man." One gifted murmured. Skye shook her head.

"I suppose that is dwarfed by several things today, though...", Cade conceded.

"Yea..." The shapeshifter murmured quietly.

"Let's go.", he said queitly, looking at the wreckage. "We'll come back tomorrow and give them a proper burial."

"Of course." The shapeshifter nodded her head.

"We'll have Jade to help us, too."
