Phoenix was quiet as she watched Boost. "Where Ebs at? Is she close to the stadium?"

Boost sniffs the air, "She's some distance from the stadium. Her scent leads toward the Rec Area. Don't know why, but perhaps she's taken refuge there after all that's happen to her."
He starts heading toward the Rec Area, entering the place. Ebony's scent was definately strong here. Now, he just had to figure out where in the Rec Area Ebony was at.
~~~~~
Watching the twins, Ebony caught a familar scent, two actually. She recognized the scents as belonging to her brother, Boost, and Phoenix.
Why were they here?

"Maybe she needed to get away from the excitement for a while," Phoenix said. "You know how she is with stress."

"I can understand her wanting a little peace and quiet," answered Boost, "some rest and relaxation is a good thing, but there's something more and it's bothering me."
~~~~~
Ebony had been resting upon the blanket she had laid out for herself, watching her babies creep about her. She rarely got the chance to do this for more than a week and it felt nice for once.
It was then that she saw two figures appear in the distance.

"Whats that?" Phoenix said and then turned when she saw Ebony settled on the grass. "There she is with the twins. Hey Ebs."

Ebony looked up, "So you came to find me. Big deal. What good would that do anyway?"
"I just want to know how you're doing," said Boost, "I was worried."
Sighing, Ebony, "Look, I'm not going back to the stadium. There's just been too much stress there... and it's wearing me out."

"We weren't gonna make you go back," Phoenix said. "We were just worried about you. Is something wrong?"

"It's too complicated to explain," muttered Ebony. The twins had sensed their mother's mood and crept toward her, wanting to be near her.
"C'mon, after all we've been through, I'm sure we can understand where you're coming from," urged Boost.
Ebony was silent for a moment. "You know that demon that's been tormenting me?"
"Yeah?" nodded Boost.
"It's Eddie..." she paused, "Or the demon is possessing Eddie, making him think I betrayed his trust for some reason and that he hates me for it. I tried to put the matter to rest with him, but it didn't work."

"Didn't Tempest and the other magic-users get rid of the demon yet?" Phoenix asked. "Maybe once the demon is gone Eddie will believe ya."

Ebony shook her front, resisting the temptation to scratch at her recent scrapes along her sides.
"No, she tried, but she failed," replied Ebony, "The demon emerged right there in front of and took over Eddie's body. It brought an entire warehouse down on the four of us: Tempest, Eddie/demon, Anastasia, and me."
She looked at Boost and Phoenix, "I almost died this morning."

"But you didn't," Phoenix said. "You wanted to survive because of those two right there." He nodded towards the twins. "And here you are."

"I thought I was going to die," answered Ebony, "and my life actually flashed before my eyes. If it wasn't for Tempest, I and everyone else with me would be dead. She used up most of her magic to save us all."

Kamui went through the door and waited for Slick to catch up. She could start to feel the spell wearing off.
"Aw scrap.... I getting the walls-closing-in-feeling again....." Kamui muttered.

Slick caught up and quickly surveyed his surroundings. "There's an exit at the end of this hallway. You'll make it. Let's go."

"There's always this saying that they used to tell us on sets; 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger'." Phoenix said. "And its something you shouldn't get stuck on. You'll spend your whole life dwelling on it 'Something like that happens making us go off the road. We go off the road so we could get back on it,' We learn from mistakes like that."
