Reaction to Kennedy's death

[stoney]

Yes.....

[stoney]

Vyper was about to say something, until a gunshot was heard. She hugged herself even tighter, knowing who was making that noise. "Dad..."

Kennedy stood in the doorway, using a modified M-16 rifle to blast away the nightmare from the only entrance to the workshop. Each time one fell to the ground, they would stand back up like nothing happen to them. "Why won't they just die?!" He yelled, firing at them until he ran out of ammo. He put another magazine in, then started to fire away again. More and more keep pouring into the workshop, backing away from the door to get safe distance. Two of them came from behind, sinking their fangs into his left shoulder and arm. He screamed in pain as he bached their head open with the stock of the M-16. He couldn't use the rifle anymore, there's no way to use one arm with a rifle, but he has no choice. He backed into a wall, sitting on the ground, and started to shoot back at them. He was bleeding badly, a trail of blood formed when he was first bitten. Soon he was overwhelmed, couldn't do anything else but to die. The nightmare approached to him slowly, laughing and glaring as they got closer.
Kennedy breathed heavily, smiling to himself weakly. "I'm sorry Vyper...I know you wanted to get out of this place, but this was the best place to be as of now..." He said silently, then stopped breathing, motionless. The nightmare gathered around the corpse of Kennedy, his pure blood tasted so good...good thing Vincent chose this spot to attack.

Vyper was stunned, fear overwhelming her. That was her dad...why did everything got quiet? No...it didn't happen. He didn't die, he couldn't, he said he would be with her until she's grown up. "No..." She kept repeating over and over again.

Maryahs eyes shot open. Kennedys link, it was gone, lost...She covered her mouth in shock.

Lynk was walking silently down the stairs to the kitchen back at home. He yawned, tired of'course. He walked threw the dinning room and intohe kitchen where he opened the fridge and grabbed some milk, closeing the door her poured a glass and took a swift sip.
He stood there, sleepy and trying to wake up so he could go to work early. He looked at the fridge, pictures of family and friends there. He smiled and looked at a picture of Lynk and Kenedy when they were room mates standing next to each other, than another when they were older. "Eh, cheers my friend to another day at work." He said lifting the glass and downing the milk.

Wesker growled at the crow. "Why do you even care? You're just a pawn to someone." He said harshly. Just then a shiver went down his large spine, someone that he had to be with before. "...Kennedy is dead..." He said calmly.

Leland looked at her, confused. "He's prob fine..." He said lightly.

[stoney]

Vyper looked up at Leland, eyes filled with sorrow. "A-Are you sure?" She asked sniffling.

Leland nodded.

Maryah sung lightly, the song of shiro. The Moon. The red fadded only slightly, and she could feel the tension in the air lighten a bit, maybe she could keep them come, if just for a while, to distract or delay them.

Bane stilled had Lilly pinned up aganst the wall, he knew there were three around them. Suddenly, he heard it, Shiro, His muscles relaxed, his eyes drooped. The calm echo...

Maryah knew that they would be calm for only a while, and began to make calls to familys and the Base about what was going on.
After an hour, sh sat their, trying to find out who to call before her own actions made her dial Stonewalls number without realizing it untill the phone was ringing.

Stonewall was doing the dishes since Dustin had made dinner. She used her mag to hold up a few plates and a few washclothes to make the juob go by faster. "Dustin, can you get it?" She called from the kitchen.

Dustin set down what he was doing and walked over to the phone, picking it up. "Hello?" he said.

Maryah hesitated, then. "Hello Dustin. It's been awhile."

"Hey, Maryah," Dustin responded. "How've you been?" He glanced over to Stonewall. Maryah most likely wanted to talk to her, hopefully her hands would be free soon.

"I am calling all the parents and guardians of the students. It seems that two clans have gotten out of control and are on a killing spree. I calling to say that your children are safe. But...I would like to talk to Stonewall about something else..." She asked firmly.

[stoney]

Stonewall looked back at Dustin, wondering who was on the phone. She hadn't caught the name becuase of the running water so close to her.

Dustin's eyes widened. He had a thousand questions, but choked them down. His children were safe, and that was what mattered... "Of course," he said quietly, then covered the phone with his hand. "Stonewall," he said loudly, so she could hear, and motioned to the phone.

She was almost done with the dishes. She coudl totally finish them while she talked to Maryah. She magged the phone over. "Hello." She said into the phone. SHe now had to ignore everything except whoi was on teh phone adn doing the dishes.

"Stonewall, I have some bad news. I just told Dustin that I have imformed all the parents of the students that their children are safe, including yours, because two clans are going on a killing spree...but...not all were able to make it into the safe haven." Maryah got straight to the point.

"Tadc and Ula are fine you said...wh-what's wrong?" She asked, the washclothes started to slow as she payed more attention to Maryah. Who was hurt? Dead?

[stoney]

Maryah tried to say it the best way she could over and over in her mind but she couldn't figure out a way to say it softly. "Im...in my office, where I can feel every link..and...to get to the point..." She hesitaited then finally. "Stonewall...Kennedys link is gone." She exhauled.

One second: Stonewall paused.
Two second: Stonewall's eyes widend. Her heart felt like it had stopped.
Three second: Her mag stopped and the dishes fell on the floor and counter with a loud crash.
Four second: "NO!" She fellt to her knees, crying. "That's not true! He can't be! No!" She curled over herself, holding the phone to her ear. "No! No! No! No! NO!" She screamed again again.

Dustin was at Stonewall's side in an instant. He held her shoulders, no idea what Maryah had said. But he didn't want to ask, not now, not after such reaction. Maryah said that Tadc and Ula were safe, what could this possibly be about?

Maryah held the phone away, resting it on her chin, hearing her old best friends cries. Her heart went out to her, and at the moment, all she wanted to do herself was wrap her arms around Lynk.
"I'm sorry Stonewall, that's all I know."

"Maybe he's knocked out! He's not dead!" She screamed again. Her voice was getting hoarse already. Kennedy wasn't dead. He couldn't be. She hadn't received his photos yet. He had danced with her at her wedding. He was one of her really good friends despite the conflict with him and Dustin. She leaned on Dustin, crying into his shirt. "He's not dead Maryah."

Maryah opened her eyes and wasn't surprized that Gaara stood before her as a wolf, covered in mixed blood. His eyes were dark and wise with the facts that had just happoned, and he nodded once, before closeing his eyes and bowing his head.
"I'm sorry Stonewall, but he is."

[stoney]

Dustin did his best to comfort Stonewall soundlessly, or at least as quietly as possible, so she could hear Maryah. It was painful to see her break apart like this... He wanted to make everything better, but if it was a matter of death, there was no way he could.

She held the phone away from her ear, wanting Dustin to take it. To hear it. She sobbed a little quieter onto Dustin's lap. She started shaking lightly.

Dustin took the phone and held it up to hear. "Maryah?" he said. "What did you tell her?"

Lynk walked into work early, and it was different. It wasn't quiet like it usually was around the office, it was busy, loud, with rushed bodies.
"What's going on?" Lynk asked as he walked up to Mike, surprized Skull was asleep in the corner of the computer desk.
" 'Ever heard of red moon and mixed bloods?" Mike asked darkly, as if angry.
"Yeah." Lynk said, putting his suitcase down and walking over to Mikes computer screen.
"It came true, they attacked a few hours ago." He replied.
"Where?" Lynk asked quietly.
"The Academy..."
Lynks heart stopped.

Maryah wasn't surprized Dustin had the phone. "People are dying over here Dustin, we can't protect everyone, and Kenedy was one of them. He died. " She was completely buisness over the phone with Dustin now, she remember the fight they had, and she wasn't about to let Dustins thoughts, whatever they may be, get to her.

Stonewall suddenly moved away from Dustin and picked up her phone that was on the counter. She slid against the counter and dialed Kennedy's number. He almost always had his phone on and with him....he woudl pick up. If Maryah was calling now, then everythign was alright. "He's not dead." She mumbled to herself over and over again, listening to the phone ring. She got his answering message. Called again. Message again. "No!" She repeated this.

-Stonewall...- Maryah said calmly threw her mental link. They may be far, but, if Maryah tried hard enough, she could do it, but only if it was someone close to her. -He's gone.-

Lynk paced in his office. He was going insane with the fact of not knowing what was going on. First an illness that effect attacked pure bloods, then they become hunted?
He had a few choice.
1) Contact Maryah, but the phones were prob busy with her telling others who was and wasn't hurt.
2) Mind link, but she prob was useing an ability like SHiro at the moment
3) Go there.

But then again, he was pure blood. It'd be like going to the lions den.

[stoney]

"No...no..." Her voice was shakey and another wave of tears poured over her cheeks. She stared at her phone even when her vision was blurred.

Dustin took a deep breath and set the phone down, then slowly moved over to Stonewall, watching her sadly, wanting to be there for her. He tried not to let any emotion of his own through, tried not to feel. Kennedy was dead. It wasn't his place to grieve. They had never been friends, they had gone as far as to hate each other. But Stonewall... she and Kennedy had been extremely close... Dustin could imagine what she was feeling, and that she had to experience that pained him more than anything else.

"Who killed him?" She asked outloud and through her mind link. She hoped Maryah could hear her even though Dustin had set the phone down.

Maryah hung up the phone. She didn't know who killed Kennedy, but it was one of the nightmare or ocean clans, and from the looks of Gaara. He seemed to already taken care of it.

She held her head in her hands? "Dammit Marayh! Who killed him!?" she felt weak now, "Tell me..." She begged, leaning on Dustin. She still spoke outloud even though she meant to only through her mindlink.

-All I know is what clan they are from, but only Gaara knows who did.- She was struggling to keep her link now with Stonewalls waves of emotions. -If I tell you what clan, I don't want you hating everyone from their kind.- She knew the feeling. There was more than a few reasons why she didn't go near a certain kind of creaure. Humans.

"Oh I won't." Her voice sounded almost evil. She looked at Dustin. "Where did I put them?" She asked him. She was asking about the three guns they had. They were for protective purposes only. Living out in the middle of the woods, any weirdo could come, or rabid animal. Guns were a quick fox for safty, not revenge. She and Dustin had agreed on that and now she was going to break their agreement.

-No.- Maryah severed the link eniterly.

When she looked at Gaara, he instantly dissapeared, as if afraid. He knew who killed Kennedy, he himself had made the death blow to the nightmare that did it.
At the same time, these were only kids...

Dustin grabbed Stonewall by the shoulders and looked her in the eyes. "No," he said firmly. "You do not want to do that."

"Yes I do..." She tried to sound strong, but she couldn't.

Dustin shook his head, continuing to look Stonewall in the eyes. "No you don't," he said quietly, but firmly. He wanted to give in to Stonewall, to back her, to help her kill those who had murdered her friend, but he wouldn't allow himself to. He couldn't. They would both regret it. He needed to stay strong, no matter how hard it was.

Stonewall looked at Dustin. She felt like she was about to fall apart. "He's dead." She finally admitted. "Dustin..."
