Sara looks around and quickly closes the door behind her, hoping Ignace hadn't heard him out there.
"I'm so sorry. Are you OK? didn't know you were there..... Why are you here?"
She talks quickly, scrambling over to gently tap his nose with her fixing people power.
Lang sits there a moment letting sara do her fixing thing.
I actually was looking for you, but I saw Ignace in there and I didn't want to go in. But I was watching her, its was just like when we met. I was looking at her through the window, watching her make dresses for her sister.
Lang sits on the floor in the hallway. I just miss that. I want to be friends again.
after a pause anyway I came to see if you still want to go with me. I will understand if you say no. I think Ignace needs somebody with her too. If you do still want to go, I will be leaving around dinner time.
Ohh, and Sara If you stay with Ignace, please make sure she eats. sometimes she forgets and I would bring stuff for her to eat. I think she like that.
Phaezeriel gains in altitude as they travel, rising to be about 250 feet above the group. His main concern at this point is spotting any possible ambushes before they happen.
"I think it might be best if you leave her be for a little bit. Let her just think through this in her own. It's hardly even been an hour since what happened. Just give her some time."
She helps him stand up and gives him a hug.
"I'm going now to get food for us. Can you help me get things she likes?"
She looks at Sorun being all lover boy spaced out and stuff.
"Is he OK?"
She looks a little confused and concerned.

"Hey Sara...."
settro removes his shackles and places them on the headmaster's desk. He casts shield, then holds up his hand and says-
"Who would find it beinificial to be an elemental, bear, dragon, or other large, strong creature?"
Tyrrin simply shakes her head in response to Settro, given that she had her own polymorph spell she was planning on using.
Royston the ex policeman now teacher looks up at them seeing some thing may be wrong he gets up, he had been sat reading the Simroom teachers safety book. After ending up here in his fruitless search for a student, now Seeing them pass he says.
"Hello you look a bit worried is there a problem I can help with?"
A small fey thing exits Sim room 6 and makes jumps with wings supporting it in the air long ways down the hall instead of walking.
She passes the group in the control room, seeing Vare and his goofy clothes and expression with no wherewithal.
"You is a Mr.Vare, is you?"
It speaks with a kind voice of a woman in her late thirties.
The man in the garishly coloured robes turned his un-fixed gaze on the Grammaton Cleric when he speaks. "There is a student who has been enchanted, we are trying to determine the source so that we might end the problem once-and-for-all." Vare says somberly, his eyes glowing slightly blue thanks to the detect spell he had active.
When the small Fey approaches, Vare notes the indicators that this is in fact a summoned creature, and he cocks his head slightly. "Yes, that is me. What do you need?"
Standing rom his seat he turns to walk away. After hearing Midori's last line he stops but doesn't look back. "It's fine. I understand. I just need to be alone for a little while." Somberly he walks away, not paying any attention to the world around him. His heart feeling as if it was broken in two.
Midori watches him leave with her eyes full of tears, and then she vanishes from sight, turning invisible, leaving the table...
Through the Collective, Anahita updates those that are paying heed.
While moving along with her group, staying stealthy, Anahita adds, ::I do recommend we gain information before leaping blindly into a possible trap. This is not our home ground, we lack the advantage and are acting impatiently. It is unwise given our lack of experience as a team.::
::Do you have a specific recommendation on how to gather information?:: Vai asks back through the Collective, maybe sounding a little bit stressed, snapping slightly. ::Yrrin, how do you know you can trust that person? This serpent could be working with the kidnappers.::

Phaezeriel will have some trouble with the forest canopy, but it's not dense enough to completely block vision.

Belsayv - Vanguard Group
Yrrin's senses do not pick anything up at the moment...
However, both Belyu and Vickory can hear a very slight rustling in the undergrowth some twenty feet ahead on the track. They see nothing there, but there could be an invisible creature, or it could simply be a small woodland creature. It could also be the first sign of their attackers...
Suddenly, an arrow flys out of the brush Belyu and Vickory noticed, flying directly for Yrrin, putting to rest all theories of non-aggression! The attacker continues to remain invisible though!

Yrrin's surprise is not feigned in the slightest
The arrows punch through weak spots in his armor...
Blood dripping onto the forest floor.
Then his helm unfolds from his armor and clamps down onto his head, obscuring his face. His armor glows blue white and he grows in size and strength...
All near him are shrouded in a shining aura of positive energy...
His bow is loaded and ready as he searches for the attacker
Rena touches a wing to Lim-Mor, but remains focused on the pair in front of them, especially now that Asha was on the ground level..
::Do you have a specific recommendation on how to gather information?:: Vai asks back through the Collective, maybe sounding a little bit stressed, snapping slightly. ::Yrrin, how do you know you can trust that person? This serpent could be working with the kidnappers.::
Replying through the Collective, Anahita responds with,
::Are these magic users, or technology users given your experience on this world? If either, could we not potentially see the energies employed from a distance, via scrying, or even augury if possible. The bolts in the traps would either have come from a camp or potentially be on someone's person, seeking another of the bolts might work via scanning, or the like. Perhaps we can listen in on any sort of transmitted signals in the air. As for those going ahead, I've always felt a stealthy approach, perhaps as a flying natural resident of the world, versus a humanoid figure, would be more likely ignored.. Even invisibility might assist best. Or shaped as an insect, given how those appear ignored compared to mammal sort of creatures. I'm suspecting perhaps if there is even above insect intelligence in a creature, it might be detected and caught up as the town seemed devoid of anything but the afore mentioned insects and plant matter. These are just a few of the things I have thought of and am asking myself. What about the rest of you thus far? Anything to share? You all seem silent, this mental communication should not be overheard, right, Phaezeriel? Or can others sense it if they are psionic such as yourself?::
Her voice, mentally is calm, as if just speaking casually at a coffee shop, without sipping coffee.
Unless people feel the need to cause further ado, Lim-Môr will teleport them all back to the Sim room, through use of his extra spell within his bonded trident...
"Ow! Let me get out of the way before you do that!" Vickory rather quickly moves out of the positive energy Yrrin is putting off, circling to close on the attacker without crossing LOS or being in that pesky positive energy stuff that Yrrin is just exuding all over the place.
Vickory watches the ground where the attacker is suspected, and then bathes the area in a spurt of flames, wathes for any sign of the invisible, such as the flames dissappearing in one spot, bushes moving different from the rest, etc
+5 positive energy granting DR 5/negative energy
"Mr.Lim-Môr has this message for you, Sir."
It takes the paper in its hand and reads it in its sweet voice.
"Sim Room 6 now please, very important, lives at stake."
"He said to read that to you and give you the paper. It's just down the hall. They teleported out to get some friend of theirs. Now I need to find Miss Jones, he said her name was."
The cricket thing(or whatever Vare sees) hops off to fin Ms.Jones, small hand grazing the walls to take it there.
The man in the garishly coloured robes turned his un-fixed gaze on the Grammaton Cleric when he speaks. "There is a student who has been enchanted, we are trying to determine the source so that we might end the problem once-and-for-all." Vare says somberly, his eyes glowing slightly blue thanks to the detect spell he had active.
Royston nods and surmises the robed man must be a member of staff! taking into a lint his age and actions.
"My name is Royston I'm the new fire and energy arms teacher, I hope you don't object to me tagging along. This would be an excellent opportunity for me to observe the safety procedures of the school Professor."He falls in with the group but keeps out of the way wile doing so, only observing.
Unless people feel the need to cause further ado, Lim-Môr will teleport them all back to the Sim room, through use of his extra spell within his bonded trident...
Sure enough, the bug men appeared to be immune to the intimidation efforts, (thus far fighting fearlessly even when one of their own was smashed in half) and continue to try and kill the winged female, but mostly to no avail. Weapons, again, doing very little against her, apparently deceptively impervious skin.
Conjuring up the magics and invoking the ability to teleport, Lim-Mor returns to where he was previously, as it was only just moments prior he left, and it's immediately obvious they aren't in the jungles of some odd bug men natives anymore.
The bug man that was brought back from death, seemed to have not moved since that event, though the lack of facial expressions didn't help explain it's internal thoughts, if any.
Other than the bits of blood on people's feet, if they stepped on the ground near Tryko'Sam at all, and Tryko'Sam himself, no one 'appears' injured.
"Geeeze, talk about landing in the wrong place-- didn't realize folks lived in there." Tryko'Sam says while moving his jaw as if to test it's functionality and run hands over his person to see if anything was still sticking in it. The blood on his figure is still wet, fresh, and he smells of blood-- sweat and fresh exposed internal organs, thankfully, none are visible.
He spots Reviarti and studies her just a moment before looking at the others and saying, "Thanks for the rescue, folks."
Then he looks down at his feet, where rapidly, a translucent material, which also appears to be covering his arms and torso, begins to manifest and encase him within instants.
His eyes do seem to register a combination of annoyance and anger, but for that immediate round of imprisonment, he can does little else surprised by the effect.
@Aanandareavekki
Somewhere via her devices, Aanandareavekki gets the appropriate warning and alert that the subject she seeks, in SIM Room 6, has been immobilized, per request. Awaiting further instructions.
Belyu wastes no time in pulling out a wand and activating it, sending two pale gray beams into the bush
indeed, riviarti is quite surprised, and flicks open her eldritch eye, using arcane sight as it grows.

Nothing magical in the room at work, save whatever effects you folks in the SIM Room 6 are affected by (i.e. nothing by me), i.e. the lingering aura of conjuration from having teleported.
"Well, this makes less then no sense. I give up. He's your problem."
You all seem silent, this mental communication should not be overheard, right, Phaezeriel? Or can others sense it if they are psionic such as yourself?::
Her voice, mentally is calm, as if just speaking casually at a coffee shop, without sipping coffee.
::If one such as myself, a specialist in telepathy, were close to one of us, a few dozen feet away at most, she would know that there was telepathic communication happening, but could not overhear what was being said. I know of no powers or spells that can listen to a telepathic conversation save by reading the thoughts of those doing the communicating.::
There is a slight pause then Phaezeriel's thoughts sound sharply through the collective, ::Yrrin! What has happened? Are you under attack?::
"I think it might be best if you leave her be for a little bit. Let her just think through this in her own. It's hardly even been an hour since what happened. Just give her some time."
She helps him stand up and gives him a hug.
"I'm going now to get food for us. Can you help me get things she likes?"
She looks at Sorun being all lover boy spaced out and stuff.
"Is he OK?"
She looks a little confused and concerned.
I know Sara, thats why i didn't go in. but are you still going with me? Like I said, Ignace needs a friend also and if want to stay with her that would be great too.
looking at Sorun.
Sorun is in love...wait, is that how I look when I was with Ignace? Lang now feels embarassed about his feelings.
"No problem.... are... you OK?"
"Of course he's not OK. He can't move! He might not even be able to respond!"
"What can we do? Why?"
As Gian talks to him, he turns his face to the left so his celestial side is predominate then back to the center when he himself talks.
"Hi, Mister Merperson. You look like you got stunged by one of the scorpions grama kept. All swishy and dizzy lookin."
She starts them down the hallway, to get away from the door.
She turns back over to Lang.
"Of course I'm coming with you. I have to see where I'm going to be for summer."
She says this with a smile and then hugs him again. :)
"Maybe one of our other friends will stay here for Ignace. And you look a little like that. You just kinda stare and stuff. You don't look all funny with your face like that."

Lang now looks really embarassed.
I'm sorry Sara, I never realized that. I guess you won't have to worry about me acting like that for a while now. And I am glad you are coming with me.
lang leads them back to the cafeteria to get food for Sara and Ignace.
Sara, the cooks used to make a tray for Ignace and me to take to her, since we used to always have lunch together. I'll show you where it is at so you can get it whenever you need to. I guess you can have the soup and fruit bowl they make for me if you want it.
igni quickly walks into another room. You can softly hear his panicked voice.
"Gah! What do i do! I can't take her outside, it's not like i know any magic..."
you hear a muffled thud as he stomps his for on the floor.
"Why is it that the only thing I'm good at is telling people what to do? It's such a useless skill now... And... No. Keep it together. Find a way to contact Carla with.. The machinery.... That i was never trained to use... Or have really seen..."
he walks back.
"I'm going to contact Carl. Hopefully he can help."
As if on que Carl calls Mel's ship
>>"Here you lot all right? Arthur how'sit going with the repairs ?"<<
As soon as Tryko'Sam began to be envelopped by whatever this was, Rena powerful hands immediately attempt to strip it away in a futile effort - whatever the substance was immediately reformed. Rena wracks her brain to remember any magic like this Vare might have ever mentioned... but then she realized something and stopped trying to free her friend. "Wait! Tryko'Sam, this might be the shcool's doing. I know you left us on the rooftop to keep us safe, and maybe the school is trying to help you be safe around us! We have people coming who can help remove the mind magic on you. I..." realizing she didn't know anything else to say, the Angel girl simply looks into Tryko'Sam's eyes, trying to get a feel for what his reaction might be.
::my visions from Justice reveal her as not evil, and she doesn't seem hostile.....but I am ready to act if she attempts anything:: he sounds reluctant though resolved
Vai practically rolled her eyes at this. Phaezeriel's sudden shout cut off any reply she was going to make. You didn't have to be evil to be coerced into doing evil. Taron's example had shown Vai that you could have thw best intentions... But still make a horrible mistake that cost the lives ofmillions.
After first hearing the message that was sent to Vare and then the alert from the security system, she grabbed Vare's arm and dragged him after her to SIM room 6.
"Tryko'Sam, please just...stay put...okay, I didn't really leave you a lot of choice on that one. We're working on it. The enchantment professor will be here soon to help clear any remaining magic out of your head. I'm investigating something in SIM room three that might be the source of this. You're immobilized now to prevent you from being coerced into harming people or running away again before we can get the spell or spells removed from you. Vare can explain the rest. Probably. I'm going back to SIM room three. Hopefully I'll find some answers there."
"Uh...the rest of you wait here....oh, right...." she hit a button on her wrist cuff. "Provide telepathic interface for restrained student Tryko'Sam. There that should let you communicate until you're freed," she said before dashing off again back to SIM room three.
Royston gos with them to sim room 6, trying to follow what is going on, he stays with the one called Vare as instructed, out of the way listening to all he can, taking it all in.
Amber and Opel had had enough of this they had headed off to what looked to be a nice local town to do some shopping.
Nala raised an eyebrow. She looked uncustomarily frazzled.
"I'll be happy to help you with that...just give me a minute."
"Sonja! So help me I will rip out your spleen and feed it to you if you harm another patient today! Pay attention to what you're doing!" she snapped at a distracted healer before the woman could inject a treatment into the wrong patient.
She turned back to Ace and Keme. "If you two could just wait for me in treatment room five, I'll be right with you."
Keme's shoulders shook with silent laughter at Sonja's reaction to the threat. The woman's eyes went wide and she was shaking in terror as she clearly believed Nala to be perfectly capable of disemboweling her at a moment's notice.
"Come on, Ace, let's do as the lady says," he said with his customary cocky grin.
::Those capable of getting there more quickly should do so. We'll catch up as quickly as we can,:: Sadie said, breaking into a run, knowing that Adon couldn't be teleported there even if someone did have that magic available and not willing to leave a team member alone. ::Adon, keep up with me. We're already more split up than we should be.::

Yrrin responds with a volley of arrows
Pretty sure its evil, even if it isn't my thoughts are it is.... Smite!
If confirmed
Miss chances
Ace chuckles at Nala's threat and follows Keme. "What are your thoughts on what Aananda said is going on currently? That's an awful lot of major attacks in less than forty eight hours. Wonder of they are at all connected?" He asks curiously.

"There's probably some connections, but one thing I learned last year is how many crimes of opportunity you see during a major attack. But when you distill it down I wouldn't be surprised to find no more than three or four people responsible for all of the chaos. Actually last year there was a great deal more interconnectedness than I expect to see now. Because Madness was not so subtly encouraging the development of those crimes of opportunity."
::of course.::
adon follows.
After a brief moment of fruitless struggling, a glance else where, Aanandarevekki drags Vare into SIM Room 6, dragging Vare along followed by some stranger (Royston). She says her piece while he listens on in silence, only tracking her briefly once she goes to leave. He certainly seems calm, or apathetic during all this imprisonment.
Tryko'Sam didn't seem inclined to speak, or even use the telepathic interface provided after she departs either.
Rena's effort to Sense Motive is fairly pointless, considering the only moving aspect of her fellow student are his eyes which are staring straight ahead, unfocused on anyone in the room with him. He doesn't make eye contact either, if that is attempted, his focus is either internal, or else where.
If anything, he's certainly coming off as a prisoner might during a paralysis spell, but it is clear he is thinking on something.
