John decided that he wasn't going to lie. He sighed before continuing.
"Yes, I've heard a news report on the radio linking him to some earthquakes and rock slides going on in Japan right now. Makes sense, considering that he was an Earth demon." he said. "I don't know if he's coming after this town or not, but I'm expecting the worst out of this guy."

"I guess I can help teach them, then. David and I were thinking of moving back up here anyway." Veronica shrugged. "Our little boy Ethan is just a year old, and already showing signs of talent. I don't want him letting loose in the middle of a larger city and making headlines before he's even in school yet."
"Speaking of clans, have you had much to do with Dodge since that unfortunate business five years ago?" Ondine asked.

"But what if they can't yet," Luke said. "Or if he even holds it yet?"
~~~~~
"Should we be worried about Chase along with Maven then," Phoenix asked. "We don't know if he has the power yet. Would he come after him too."

"Oh, that would be scary," Meredith agreed with the dreaded possibility of letting Ethan go in a big city, "Moving here would be a better idea. That way, you can teach both Maven and Ethan, as well as any other magic-sensitive children all at one time."
~~~~~
Ebony sighed and shook her front, "Not much. I still haven't forgiven them for what happened back then. They wanted to take me from the only home I ever knew. And besides, I don't do well in colder climates."

"Well, David's historical novel about Half-Blind Simpson and the silver robbery sold well enough that we could live pretty much where we want," Veronica nodded, "So we'll be packing up and moving in a bit."
"I heard it being talked about by the regional Nissan clan heads - gossip travels, after all." Mike harrumphed. "The general gist of it was "What kind of damn fools are Dodge these days?" The Japanese clans would rather avoid direct confrontations, and if they had a similar situation, they'd handle it more delicately."

"Hey, I think I read that book on a rainy day once," said Meredith, "It was pretty enjoyable. David certainly has a good writing talent."
(((((OOC: And that just makes me wonder what Huntress and Lyle have been up to for the past five years... )))))
~~~~~
"Well, I just wish that they had a little more consideration for how I was feeling at the time," Ebony grumbled, "They made me feel like my feelings didn't matter. I got a restraining order against them. Sally helped me out with that."

"He's working on his next book right now," Veronica said, "So I heard Huntress and Lyle got a reward for finding the treasure. What have they been up to these days?"
"And people wonder why the leadership of the American clans seems to have lost it these days." Ondine scowled. "Don't be surprised if overseas clans move in and try to recruit disenchanted people, or at least the best of them."

"I think they've gotten bitten by the treasure-hunting bug," said Meredith, "Finding the silver made them think of what else that they could find by just exploring anyplace that barely anyone else ever goes to."
~~~~~
"I probably wouldn't be surprised because I see new leadership anyway. I have a few ideas on how to make the Dodge clans better," said Ebony.

((Heh...combining real-life car industry with the RP...nice.))
"I don't know about Chase...now that I think about it, Hichiro was probably attracted to Maven's powers, which is strange since Ebony wasn't even in term then. I'm not sure if he would be attracted to other magic users as well." John said. "In any case, if he does come, he'll be a danger to everybody in town, magic-user or not."

Phoenix pulled closer to Boost, now feeling proctective of Chase. "Then how do we stop him? I don't want to take any chances."
(((And when do we want to bring in the Dodge and Pontiac reps.)))

"Maybe Ebs already has that covered," said Boost, "she may have a plan in the works."
(((((OOC: That has to be planned out the same way Eva and I planned out the Dodge reps as well as George and his seedy lawyer. Word must be spread about Chase's existence first.)))))

"When we first ran into him, he was mostly mortal, so attacking him physically did the job pretty well. I figure a magic-user wouldn't have had any trouble with him." John said. "But that was six years ago. The prophecy said that he would return more powerful than before, but I don't know exactly how much. Ebony's already said that she will inform all the magic-users in town of this threat."

"Maybe there's an opportunity here," Ondine said, "Though it hasn't really shown its face yet. The way clan Dodge reacted to the news suggests, you know... some desperation. The Plymouth clan leadership fell apart a few years ago, now its members have to rely on the Chrysler overclan for support. Ironically, people like the Weathers may be the only things holding it together in a social sense."

"I know what makes a good leader," said Ebony, "because I was one for the DRH before it broke up and I'm pretty good at it too. The Dodge leadership had forgotten that. I mean to bring that back."

"I hope so," Phoenix said. "Maybe now should be the best time to see if Chase is magic sensitive?"
(((Who could be passing through, or who could go into town and let something slip about him...)))
