*shoots across the sky in an arc of lightning as he heads towards Western Long Island* It's been a week now since I woke up from my coma and I still haven't seen Cheshire anywhere... I asked Nebula who told me she'll probably just return on her own after she works things out. But I know Ches too well to just wait around for her. With an anti-hero mother and a conflicting past, she's on the verge of making some bad decisions... She wasn't on the roof of the Protectors' HQ, her favorite spot, or back at the school... Maybe I'll find her at home then, if the place isn't yet deserted. *lands at the front door of the large estate, immediately dropping his electric aura before reaching out and ringing the doorbell* Come on, please be here...

((You have to wait for a second before you hear anything. Then you hear a familiar voice from behind the door.))
"Hello? Who is there?"
((Then the door opens revealing a lady with her hair pulled up into a twist. She is wearing a Chinese styled gown with golden dragon design on it. She smiles at seeing you and waves you in.))

Hi, umm...
*is a little taken back by the appearence of the person with the familiar-sounding voice*
Cheshire...? Is that you? Has it really only been a little over a week?
*takes a step inside without taking his eyes off the young girl*

"Oh. Yea its only been a week. Bet you want to know why my hair is so long, or the outfit?"
*Smiles and then closes the door behind you*

*smiles at her, finally letting his eyes wander from her to his surroundings*
I have many more questions than that... Wow, look at this place! I never realized you had it made so well, Cheshire! I never should have said you had nowhere to go... you're much better off than I am.

"Umm... thats kindof why I never mentioned it."
*looks down for a second*
"I know quite a few people didn't have it as well off, so I decided to never mentioned it. I didn't want to rub it in or anything..."
*looks back at Bolt*
"Well I see you are doing better. Sorry I wasn't there, I have a few things to sort out here."

Yeah, what's that about? I was beginning to think you didn't care anymore...
*gives her a playful smirk before getting serious again*
Anyway, you didn't quit the Protectors, did you? I wanted to find you to make sure of that fact. You can't leave me with all those strangers... and Matty. I mean, he's a cool guy and all, but what if he ever challenges me to an arm wrestling contest?

"You fry him, and you hope can pin him while he is stunned?"
*turns and looks around the room*
((Description time: The room is open greeting hall. To either side there is open double doorways leading into larger rooms, and to the far side of the room's length is a grand staircase leading to the second floor.))
"No, I didn't leave, but I needed to sort a few things out. Plus I didn't feel like I could do enough... So I been trying to fix that by learning some new things... But don't worry. I just needed alone time, but its nice that you swung by."
*smiles at Yvan*

Well I can certainly tell that you've changed, inside and out. I'm impressed, I was expecting the worse while on my way to see you.
*reaches up and scratches the back of his head as he looks at her, at a near loss for words since he wasn't expecting it to be this easy and Cheshire to be in such a good mood*
So... would you like to elaborate on just what you've been learning? I won't pry, but if you're anxious to show it off, I'd be more than happy to oblige.

"Umm... It isn't something that you just demo, and I am not that good at it yet."
*looks around*
"I might be able to show you something."

Well what is it? You can just tell me if you can't show me. That's only half of show and tell, but nobody's keeping track.
*looks at her curiously, wondering what more she could possibly need to learn to add to her already wide variety of powers and abilities*

"Umm.."
*pulls a stand of hair behind her ear*
"I learned magic?"
*sticks out her tounge at Yvan*

Oh really? You mean like voodoo? That's interesting... Where did you learn it from? I know you haven't gone back to learn from Professor Winwright--he hasn't seen you since we left with Nebula.

"Umm... not like voodoo... and I just read a few books from my dad's study."
*grabs Yvan's hand*
"Want me to show you around?"
Plus I can use the break. Give us something to talk about.

*smiles and closes his hand around Cheshire's*
Yeah, show me this monstrous place you call home. I'm curious to see what all a world-class superhero collects and decorates his home with.
*looks around as he follows his tour guide through the house, glad to have something to take his mind off things back at HQ if only for a few moments*
