Felix gulped "I-I'll just w-w-walk m'self in..." he stuttered, before managing to stumble his way out of the bushes and into the house "h-h-hello, s-sir, y-y-you wanted t-t-t-to sp-speak t-to m-me?" "Calm down, I'm not going to shoot you...yet." Thomas replied simply, before turning to Leonard and adding "I want you to be a part of this conversation too, if you don't mind"
"let's try something of a spring board..." Heidi mused as she climbed up a nearby tree, "okay, let's hope this works..." She leapt from one of the branches and, after managing to fly quite well for a moment, fell back to the ground, albeit a bit more gracefully than last time.

"I don't have anywhere to be," Leonard said, and then he realized that he hadn't even told Thomas his real name. "You can call me Leo, by the way. And seriously Felix, grow a pair."
"Yaaay!" Anthony cheered, picking up Scrap and rushing over to his friend. "That looks like so much fun!"

ooc: last post, maybe another in the random chat, before I go to bed XP
bic: "He threatened to shoot me, Leo!" Felix exclaimed defensively "besides, I didn't know that he'd be so defensive!" he paused for a moment "...sorry, it's just-" Thomas cut him off "no, it's fine. I'd say I overreacted but, that would be a lie. Anyhow, here's the thing, boys. I can tell that you both are members of the Organization. Well, I want you to tell them that before I let Heidi run off to fight this war, I've gotta know that they have an army ready; capeish? I don't want her going alone." he said firmly.
"It is pretty fun; a bit scary, but fun" Heidi said, laughing, before taking Scrap from Anthony, and saying "isn't it amazing, Scrap I can fly!"

Leonard had no idea under what circumstances Heidi would be charging off into battle, so he glanced at Felix expectantly. "I'm sure she will, right?"
'Yeah yeah yeah, it's just so great,' Scrap though, trying not to give any reaction to Heidi. Seeing that he wasn't gonna be getting much entertainment on this outing, he was much more eager to go back home.

"Well, yeah...of course she won't be alone. I mean, there's more but...we just need to find them..." Felix said, fiddling with his silver cross pendant. "And there's the crux of our problem" Thomas sighed "You need to prove to me that there are others out there!"
"C'mon, Scrap" Heidi laughed "show a little more reaction to your owner flying! Oh well, 'tis the nature of a cat, after all..."

"Hm... Well, Anthony might be one of those 'others'," Leonard said. "I mean, not a legitimate Valkryie, but he could definetly be a somewhat useful side-kick. If he can just learn to use his god-damn magic already."
"So..." Anthony began, tapping his heel against the ground. "You've got wings. You can fly... What'cha gonna do with them?"

"Don't you guys have some sort of way to track down these "Valkryies"?" Thomas asked, curious. Felix shrugged "I'm not too sure...I mean, I'm only a messenger, really..."
Heidi shrugged, "I dunno...maybe I'll just use them to get around easier...but, first I need to figure out how to hide them...I mean, I don't want to be experimented on, after all..."

"Well, at the beginning it's really not possible, but as the Valkryies gain their powers it's not that difficult," Leonard answered, giving Felix a 'the hell is wrong with you?' glance. Leonard wasn't even an official member of the organization but he still knew more than Felix, it seemed. "If we hadn't known about your daughter beforehand, I'm sure it would've become obvious once people began talking about a flying girl with wings."
"I'm sure someone somewhere has had a similar dilemma," Anthony said. "What did those bird people James Patterson wrote about do? Wanna go home and figure it out?"

Heidi shrugged "Sure, why not? We'll just look it up. It'll be easier that way" she picked Scrap up "c'mon, Scrap, we're going home"
"I see..." Thomas said thoughtfully "I'll tell Heidi everything...but, I'm not letting her go until I know for sure that you people won't get her killed without a purpose."

"Gotcha. Can I leave now?" Leonard asked, mostly to Felix.
About halfway to Heidi's house, Anthony stole Scrap right out of his friends arms. "Favorite cat!" He exclaimed happily, giving the Scrap a small hug. "So... Wanna eat that cake when we get home? To celebrate your step forward in human evolution?"

Felix nodded "I think...is that alright, Mr. White?" "It's fine" "and, you're gonna tell Heidi everything, right?" "Right" "Then, I guess I'll be going..." Felix said, edging awkwardly out of the back-door "Sorry for the trouble"
Heidi laughed "sure, sure, why not? I could go for some cake..."

With the promise of cake, Anthony quickened his pace, going as fast as he dared while carrying a cat. Nearing Heidi's house, he saw Leonard exiting. "Hey! Hey bro!!" He called.
Leonard groaned more powerfully than one would think necessary under the circumstances, and stopped his walk to speak with his brother. "'Sup. Short walk?" Upon seeing Heidi approach, he gave a quick nod to let her know he was acknowledging her presence. It was just what cool people did sometimes. "'Sup?" He said again, this time as a question rather than a greeting.

"What were you doing in my house?" Heidi asked bluntly, her previous good mood shattered at the surprising sight of Anthony's brother.
Meanwhile, seeing Heidi and Anthony round the block, Thomas made quick work of hiding the cigarette smoke. Whether or not he was successful in the endeavor was currently unknown, though he certainly hoped for the best...

Leonard just waved off the question. "I'm sure you'll find out. Anthony, what the hell is wrong with you?"
"W-what? What did I do?"
"You continued to be a stupid piece of crap is what you did. It's not even worth explaining..." He didn't want to keep Heidi from her 'destiny' any longer, so he brushed past the two. "See ya around, I'm sure," he said as he walked away.
Anthony sighed deeply. "Jerkface," he stated. "Well, shall we continue on?"

"I'll ask Dad about it" Heidi thought aloud, before turning to Anthony and nodding "Yeah...yeah, let's go on. What's up with your brother anyways?"
