IC It wasn't until they were conveniently done with lunch that Cliff returned, flying down to the ground and landed softly. "Back, you guys all done with the picnic? Well, it looks like you two had a good time, anyways, we should really start walking back," he suggested, going over to the picnic blanket where they were-lacking whatever it was he had lied about getting as he started to clean up. Step one, complete. Onto step two.
-
Norman gave a quiet, semi upset hum. There were only two options for that scent trail Klause was on, and one of them was a dead end-and a dangerous one at that. He definitely didn't like that. However before he could voice his concerns-not that he would've, anyways, there was a very soft, barely audible thud, and then, in front of them, in a landing position, Kai reappeared. "Bad news, Klause and Niko are kind of trapped in a hallway, there's people in the other room and people on the other side too, so they can't go either way," he explained, barely glancing at Nathan.
-
Amari smiled slightly, reaching up to hold his wrist. "Well, I guess that's true. Still though, it's a good thing you were here," she told him, and then, a furry black little head poked out from the hallway as Boston Waldo looked back over to them.
"Are you guys still coming? I have everything set up! Hope you guys like Indiana Jones," he called out to them, giving a smile before he ducked back into the other room to wait for them.
-
Lionel folded his arms, leaning back slightly. "I've known him for...bout a year now, Billy introduced us. Then Lavy met him a little later, through me since we're cousins and all," he explained casually, glancing at the others to let them go next. Martha gave a smile and went on to explain that she was new to the group and had only met him when he got back into this recently.

IC :: "Any idea on how many are in either direction? Or even who they are?" Nathan asked. It would be bad to actually go for a confrontation either way, but honestly if one of them had people easier to deal with, that would be better. Not necessarily good though as it was very possible it simply wasn't going to help with Norman's operation here.

OOC So, they're not my characters, so who do you think it should be?
IC Kai glanced at Nathan again, gaze darkening for a second before he went back to simply answering the question. "There's about two on each side. I was able to sneak past, but they can't," he explained, looking at Norman. "I didn't recognize any of them," he added, which at least was somewhat good, as it meant Buibui wasn't part of the groups. But that meant anyone else could be.

OoC :: Likely the Adalinas on one side and probably Cero on the other with Cyrus, aka the crow hybrid. Adalinas would be more difficult to deal with, FYI. Since they are somewhat trained to be bodyguards along with other stuff.
IC :: Nathan supposed that was more fortunate. Then again, two people were basically one third of the people here that anyone would rather avoid. He also had no idea who Kai would and would not recognize. "Which ones seems to be in the direction Klause believes any sample of the disease could be? Or in the case either way works, what do the people look like?" It would be better if Nathan knew who they were dealing with.

(Good morning guys c: )
As lunch went on Loreto was enjoying just sitting around and talking with Winslow as they snacked on some picnic foods. He turned his attention to Cliff as he finally made his way back to the picnic. "Are you sure you don't want to join us for a little bit before we move onto the next thing?" he asked Cliff.

OOC Got it.
IC Despite not really wanting to talk to Nathan, Kai went on to explain, if anything else because this was more important than his dislike of the snow leopard hybrid. "There's two humans, they were on the side where Klause and Niko were trying to go. Then on the other side, there's two bird hybrids, one looks like some sort of crow, and the other...I don't know, a vulture, maybe?" Kai said.
Norman cringed just slightly, he knew at least one of those. "The vulture is the guy who was with the she devil that one time...the one I'm fairly certain, wanted to eat me," Norman explained briefly. "I don't know the other three though," he paused to turn to Nathan. "They the new ones?"

OoC :: words
IC :: Nathan could tell, ever since Kai's dark glance at him, that he didn't want to talk with him. However, Nathan currently did know more about what was going on here than any of them. Knowing that information was both reassuring and not so reassuring. No Buibui- however, if he really thought to it, she probably wouldn't have been too difficult to deal with. She seemed to be getting sicker and sicker. But it meant there was three people he didn't know how well they fought.
"Probably, Cero- the vulture, is a type of vulture that eats bones. He and Buibui work well together due to that, but luckily, it doesn't sound like she is present. But the other three are new, yes. Katherine and Lucifer Adalina are the humans. Cyrus does as well, however he doesn't seem to be similar to those two, who I have a feeling will fight if need be." Nathan honestly hated being unaware of their strengths.

IC At that, Norman decided to join the conversation again. "Right. Well then, we either need to get some of them away from there so Klause and Niko can sneak past, or we'll have to fight them, which I don't want to do. So we'll save that as a last resort and distract them instead," he decided and looked back to Nathan. "Can you lead them away? You can take Kai with you, he can help with things like this, trust me," Norman explained, gesturing back to Kai, who did not look happy about that idea, but didn't object. He was really good at distracting people...many times people had thought he was a ghost, it was almost fun messing with them.

OOC Morning Ano!
IC Cliff thought about it for a moment before collapsing down, belly first onto the picnic blanket. "Yeah okay, I'll stay here for a bit, eat whatever scraps there is, then we can go," he agreed, idly reaching his hand into the basket for something to nibble on.

IC :: Nathan nodded, that should be rather easy enough. He wasn't happy with the idea either, but he could handle that at least. He almost forgot that he still knew these people, even if only somewhat for some, but that meant he could definitely lead them away easier. "Yes, I can do that." One way or another, he could likely make them listen to him and move out of the way. Even if they were reluctant to do so.

Now that seems a little bit more like normal Cliff behavior. "What took you so long to get back anyways?" Loreto asked Cliff curiously. The house wasn't that far, he didn't think that it would take that long to go there and come back.

OOC Also, fair warning, I'll probably be poofy for most of today.
IC Norman looked to Kai, who frowned and the two seemed to share a silent conversation with nothing but hand gestures, expressions, and the occasional color flare. However after a minute, Kai sighed. "Alright, guess I'll go with you, if you need any extra help getting them away," he told Nathan, camouflaging himself again. Sure, Norman might've forgiven him. But Nathan hurt his little brother, his baby brother, badly, Kai was not so eager to forgive him for that.

IC "...I uh, I got distracted by this...shiny...uh, shiny balloon, in the distance, so I flew off to find it, but I couldn't, so I gave up and came back," Cliff said, making it up as he went along. Luckily that actually sounded like something he would do, so he figured he was good with that lie. It seemed like a reasonable Cliff excuse to him. Though Winslow didn't seem quite convinced.

OoC :: words
IC :: The snow leopard gave a small nod before moving ahead to the direction that either of the groups should be. Honestly, he felt that getting Cero out of the way with Cyrus would likely be easier than dealing with the siblings though. They seemed uptight and didn't like to listen to anyone here at least- it caused some issues already.
Shiva watched as Nathan walked away, before looking at Norman. "Well, at least you do know somebody here to help us out, right? But, uh question, was he always so- er, dark and serious? He seems like it..." She felt a lot of awkwardness out of what just happened- or maybe that was the fact that she barely ever talked to Nathan.... or any of Norman's brothers.

IC Kai had taken to climbing on the ceiling again, staying quiet as he watched. Honestly, this place was messing with him a little too. The last few times he had been here...getting supplies years ago, getting captured, living here for years, they had all ended badly and Kai was having a hard time repressing those memories, it was even harder with everything going on lately.
-
Norman glanced over at Shiva. Right, he almost forgot she was still here. "Nathan? No. Back when we were still at Wings, he wasn't like this. Sure he was still a little serious-overworked himself too, because he was an idiot. But he was fun too, would joke around, laugh, actually have fun. Things like this though, they change people," Norman said, looking around at the labs. "This place shapes people, not for the better either. Not one single hybrid that came from this place, walked away without some serious problems. Even Nathan and Nadia have had to deal with it," he said, frowning. He was being quite reflective today. He blamed that on the labs as well.

OoC :: words
IC :: Nathan turned a corner, listening to a voice talk, so he headed for it. Cero was leaning against a wall, just talking to Cyrus about... the labs here. That was a little surprising, as it wasn't a normal conversation to be going on about. Not one between people that were basically told not to trust one another. "Cero, what's going on?"
His presence seemed to startle both bird hybrids, but Cero recovered quickly, "God, you need to stop doing that. Cyrus was just asking me about this place now that Michael is kinda running it is all. I thought you were hanging with your sister today?"
Ignoring the crow's watchful and honestly nervous eyes track Nathan, he moved towards the two with a sigh. "That was originally the plan, but I got called by Michael. He needs Buibui to do something for him." He paused trying to think, or as Cero would see it remember, of what excuse he could use. "To clean the top floor. Could you find her, possibly help her?"
"Really? I thought that was Lady- er, nevermind... Yeah, I can do that. Sorry Cyrus, duty calls." Nathan was relieved that was out of the way, and he started to say something to said crow hybrid before they simply started walking in the direction Nathan came.
"I'll just go then." Honestly, Nathan didn't fully like him. But then he recalled who was still back there.
"Actually, could you help me with something? I was technically supposed to have finished rearranging one of the old workrooms, but I got distracted. I'd rather not get in trouble for that." Cyrus paused before nodding quietly, and moving away towards the offices. Nathan couldn't try to find Kai at the moment, not with the over-observant crow there. But, he would just have to get back to helping soon then.
--
"That sounds really horrible." Shiva was so honestly glad that she hadn't been a part of the labs. She was kind of an aftereffect from it though, as she really doubted her mom and dad would have met otherwise. But from all of torture it people through, some people who weren't even originally created here, was awful. "So, now we wait for the coast to be clear?"

IC After a few minutes, Cliff stretched and got back up. "Okay, let's go, you two run on ahead, I'll clean all of this up," he said, running his hand along the blanket. However Winslow frowned and sat back down.
"Or, we could all clean up. You've been doing everything lately, we can all clean up," he suggested, though by the tone of his voice, he was clearly hinting at knowing what Cliff and Cliff froze like a deer caught in the headlights.

IC "It was...My brothers and I actually started to go to therapy for it awhile ago, since we could afford it. Kinda helped," Norman admitted, fidgeting slightly. He didn't like admitting that all four of them had most definitely needed therapy after everything they had been through. But it had helped, and now they were all better off. Mostly. "Kai should come back once it is in the clear. Then we go ahead," he added.
As if on cue, Kai appeared as he jumped down onto the floor. "We're good to keep going. At least for now," he explained, looking from Norman to Shiva.

IC Norman didn't question it, coming to a conclusion on his own, so instead he just nodded to Kai and told him to lead the way, which he did. It was a little strange, ordering his brothers and friends around. But they listened, and that was appreciated. Kai lead them over to where Klause and Nikolas were, however they still had to worry about the other two people.
