(Oh quite interesting. You realize that gives me an idea then. Either while she sleeps or the next day he takes her to that other guy as proof.)
I slept soundly. I was given a whole bed but I slept in a ball on the floor. My tail had been cleaned and it wasn't nearly as bad as I had first thought. My dreams were of back home.
Angel showed her hand. It was much clearer now up close. It was a simple B with a full circle around it. "It hurt when grandpa did it. He said the B was for beautiful." she added. Then she frowned. "What are your names? Maybe grandpa will let you go if I ask nicely."
"Not likely. Did you have to do a task of some sort before he hurt your hand?" he asked. She nodded. "I had to get mommy and daddy to fight. I didn't like it much. They were loud."
"Oh no. He can't do that. That's not fair to them. I'll talk to him tonight and see what I can do. He listens to me sometimes. Like..." she hung her head. "It was my idea to have some women capture Raphael. That crime lord's boy I was trying to take to a better home." she confessed.
"As far as I know yeah." Lucifer added. "I wonder what's inside. I know there's the guy inside but he never says anything about his room." Lizzy told them. It wasn't hard to get to the room. Now they stood there. Lizzy knocked on the door four times. There was silence then a single knock back. "It's Lizzy and Lawrence. We brought you two new friends." she said. "It's me and Orion." Lucifer said happily. "How are you doing in there?"
"I'm fine. Just fine. I think I have a plan on how to get out. These two have been my eyes and ears out there. I just need someone close to Rutherford. If only Heather was still here."
There was silence for a moment at what he had just been told about Heather. "That's perfect. That's just what I need. OK send the kids away. I have my plan." he said sounding rather enthused. "You heard him. Let's go. We'll finish up here." Lucifer said and ushered the two away.
"Well he needs a better home. All these kids need a better home. This whole kingdom is in disrepair. We need a new ruler. A kind just one who will think of the people first. Someone like my boy Raphael." she said with stars in her eyes. "But that'll never happen. Not while there is my brother."
(I realized I never did reply about your brainstorming.
So your idea about the son of the new king would be fine. It could be funnier if the new king was their age and tried to steal her away or it's a queen and she tries to take Oneheart away from Heather.
The gang idea could come in line with or before that. Which could result in said person meeting the group in the first place.
As for Rutherford. As of yet I haven't wanted to keep him alive even though it's better for plot like keeping Martin alive in the other thread.)
Angel listened a concerned look on her face. "But he..." she said trying to argue. Carmon shook his head. "He believes her and I like each other so he wanted me to do something intimate with another person while she watched. Of course I would never do that to her." he said hoping to reassure Jai. "But if I call the police where will I live? Grandpa won't let me go home. I have to come of age. How old is that?"
(OK. Well the queen thing before I suggested all that I had the brief idea of Maria as the ruler. Of course that makes Oneheart the prince and... Yeah so maybe Oneheart's other uncle gets in and he has a son and that's the bit we could do. I think it's funny thought that Maria imagines Oneheart as the ruler.)
"Well it's simple. I know he's got a press thing today. It's for this place. Anyway the person with him distracts him while he stands out front. While that's going on I'll used some things I have here. He was a fool in designing this room. The bolts holding the door are inside so I have been trying to pop them out. Those two were told to tell all the other kids when the door falls I'll come out. I'll lead them all out and we'll capture Rutherford." he said sounding rather pleased. "As for you two. You've earned their trust and respect you two can help me control the rest of the group."
Marina frowned. "Please don't kill him. If anything we can get him run out of town. He's still my brother. I think I have a small plan." she said then smiled. "We'll..." she stopped hearing foot steps. "Are you two ready? The press is starting to gather. We go out in twenty minutes. Maria if you want go talk to Raphael first. See if he's finally ready to join us too. Spitfire I'm going to say your name is Lilly to the press. Act like you love me. I'd hate this good press to be ruined."
Angel bit her lip she was torn. Her grandpa had treated her so nicely but these two were making him sound mean. "What! That fiend wants our home?! I'll not let him do that not while I can still draw breath." Carmon said protesting the orphanage. "I finally have a place I belong he's not taking that from me too."
Ok. So languages. Trixie knows English and Japanese. Ghost knows English.
(Yay. Oh if you ever feel like I'm being mean or something let me know. I almost feel sometimes that you must hate when I change your ideas.)
"That's what I wanted Heather for. Have her do it. I guess I'll have to give in and do it myself. He wants me to go out there pretend I'm part of his family. That's why I'm in here. He wants me to come back to my mother."
"Fine. If you must do so." he said and pointed the way forward. "Now go." Maria was already off going to speak with Oneheart. "I hope he says yes. I want to see my baby even if he hates me." she could be heard saying.
(I could work with that. Either way it's your move. Unless your ready to skip to morning.)
(So I was thinking we should split this into two. Keep this for Faith and Tobias and that group and make another for the orphans. That way I can play as more villains at once and the action of one plot isn't stopped like this. We should finish this part first then do that. That is if you want to.)
"Right. I'll not let anyone harm what ever home I have ever again." Carmon said. "What can I do? Angel asked. "Won't grandpa be mad if I leave him? He loves me." she said with a smile. "Well Jai we have to ask Amy first and that means we need to get out of here. Four days is to long to wait. We need to be gone like now." he said just before Shadow came into the area. "Ah looks like your making friends then?" he said with a smile. "That's a good girl. Keep being good and show them around. They'll be staying here for a few days. If you need anything. Martin is in shouting distance. I'm off to the market to get some more food. We need it with more mouths to feed."
(OK. I always wonder. I imagine some people don't like their ideas changed. Me I like to get feed back. I find if I suggest and idea then someone makes a change we tend to get the best from it as I can find a way to mix them.)
'Hide. If something happens to me my plans are in the fridge.' he whispered.
(Assumes he's hiding.)
Maria comes around the corner. "Raphael Rutherford sent me to talk to you. He wants you to join us. Please. Do it for me."
"OK. I'll do it. Let me get dressed. Just unlock the door for me." he said sounding rather happy. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a small black key and unlocked the door.
Shadow left the room once again. Angel watched him go. "Ok now we can escape. Is Martin one of those always there over your shoulder types?" Carmon asked. Angel shook her head. "He knows I won't do anything bad. But this one time I accidentally broke something and he was mad but all I got was a time out in the closet." she said with a smile. "Maybe he trusts you too." Carmon smiled. This was to easy. He had studied Martin for years being under the man's wing and all. He knew every weakness the guy had. "Let me handle him. He'll be distracted for hours." Not waiting he walked off to find Martin which wasn't all that hard. He had come into the room just after that whole speech.
(Got it.)
Unaware of the human phrase I was up before the sun. I went to the bathroom I had cleaned my tail in and was doing what I could to comb it to make it look extra bushy. I looked in the mirror as I worked and noticed I needed to file my teeth again. they were double the size they had been yesterday. That would be easier then my tail. I also thought of what make for breakfast. When did he eat anyway?
"What do you want?" Martin asked in a snapping tone. "I just wanted to talk. We haven't spoke in a while." he said as if they were old friends. "But you had me arrested. If it weren't for Shadow I'd still be there."
"Oh are you going to hold that against me. It wasn't my idea. I wanted you to stay. It was that Amy woman."
"Was it now? Well then I'll get her for that."
"You don't need to. I have a plan already. You just come with me. I have something I wanted to show you on the computer." He said and soon the two disappeared into the office.
Angel looked to Jai when then left. "What are your names? Where did you two come from? I live in a different kingdom so mom and dad are kind of faraway." she said with a frown.
'Yeah. Let's wait for him and get the kids ready.' Lucifer whispered.
About five minutes later Oneheart stepped out. He was very clean. His hair looked well cared for. His suit looked like he was the groom for a wedding. Maria smiled at him. "You look so handsome." she said giving him a hug before the two walked away.
Angel made a small smile. "That miss Amy sounds so nice. It must be nice. My mom is usually to busy working to support the three of us. Dad just sits on his computer. Sometimes I sneak in to see what he's doing and he's usually talking to some other woman. That woman is nice. She's seen me spying and hasn't said a thing to dad."
Once the two were gone Lucifer walked into the room. Seeing it for the first time ever. "Oh wow this place is amazing. No wonder he never left when he first had a chance. He wanted to enjoy this. I think I could... What the heck that's my bed they're using."
Soon they arrived and saw Heather. He smirked seeing her in a dress. "This is Heather." Maria explained expecting it to be their first time meeting. "She works with me as Rutherford's maid." This made Oneheart burst out laughing. "Never pictured you for the dress kind. What happen. He promise you money for it?" he asked. "Never mind that. Let's get this press thing done." he leaned in so only she could hear. 'I have a plan to get us out. Orion and Lucifer should be telling it to the kids soon. Just follow my lead.' he whispered.
The fridge was rather full. There were all sorts of meats and cheeses and drinks of all kinds too. In the vegetable crisper there was a piece of paper. It was the instructions he had planned.
[list type=decimal]
[li]Get someone to Rutherford.[/li]
[li]Break down door.[/li]
[li]Gather all the kids[/li]
[li]Storm the press conference and let the kingdom know how evil he is[/li]
[li]Capture Rutherford[/li]
[/list]
Oneheart nodded. Maria stood beside Rutherford who was smiling. "Raphael your to stand beside me and Spitfire your beside Maria." he said just before the first of the reporters showed up.
(So it helps it's like this ORMH from left to right from the reporter's view.)
Carmon came out now. He had a large grin on his face. "That takes care of him. I miss anything good?" he asked as if they were watching a movie. Not warning Angel hugged Jai. "It'll be OK." she said in a soothing tone. Then she looked over to Carmon. "What did you put on for him?" He smirked and shook his head. "Something I should be to young to know about." he said and headed for the door. "Shall we go then or are we having a slumber party now?"
