House Factions

JP with mdman, Redsword, Jaxx, Trustno1 and Cindy

Choi looked at Alyssa with an apologetic grin. “Can we talk?” he asked. He realized he was out of line back at the tunnel. He wanted to make it right.

Alyssa had been doing things on her computer and not really interacting with anyone. She however couldn't help but notice when Sung and Choi arrived with Duane.

She removed her headphones just to hear Yeong ask to talk with her. "Sure, I guess." Alyssa responded.

Yeong humbly took a chair next to Alyssa. Quietly he spoke, directly to her, as the others need not hear it.

“I…must apologize for my behavior. I was angry. The strange thing is, I wasn’t angry with you. I should not have directed it toward you.”

He thought a moment, then added, “You have every right to be angry with me.”

Alyssa bit her lip, and sighed. "Can you agree it was a joint effort? I thought we all should take credit for getting him." She nodded towards Duane.

Yeong smiled, then chuckled. Alyssa looked cute biting her lip. He spoke quietly, discreetly, so others could not hear.

“You hung in there, Little Hacker,” Choi admitted. “We would have never got into the crypt without your help. I’m proud of you, as I’m sure your father is, even though you are Illuminati. Sure you wouldn’t rather be a Dragon?” he joked. “After this mission, I’ll likely be in need of another partner.”

Alyssa couldn't hold back the smile that came to her lips, at his joke. "Well, I think I'm good staying Illuminati but I do hope we continue to work together in the future." She also kept her voice down. "After all, I would hate to have to break in new Dragons." Though it was clear Alyssa was joking.

Agent Powers was still in the kitchen finishing his meal that Alyssa got for him and sighed as he was still hungry. Sadly he needed a lot of calories to power his muscular body. He looked around and saw no one around so she shrugged and helped himself to the pantry. Seeing the available ingredients he made himself a large submarine sandwich full of meat and veggies. The sandwich was a foot long, four inches wide and eight inches high. He also poured a tall glass of water to wash it down as he began to munch on it while playing games on his phone.

Choi laughed at her joke. “I figured you’d say that,” he said with a smirk. “There’s no Illuminati I’d rather work with.”

He thought for a moment, then added, “Speaking of which, can you do a search for cowboys in Cambodia? He’s given us some information, but it’s a bit cryptic to me.”

"The Cowboys were not the ones in Cambodia. They came after. The US government revoked their security clearance after what transpired. Everything became classified." What they saw in that temple. Poisoned them." They are the cult that is responsible for all of this. I can almost assure you that the Mothman sightings are due to increased cult activity. Especially the ley lines under this house. Whatever faction may come from, they will not say they are from the organization. If you want to know who they are, you're going to have to look for yourselfs. All I need Is the book of Saint Ede The Pious to stop the cult. Phoebe I'm sure you've had a vision.”

Phoebe was someone taken aback. "How do you know my name? I did have a premonition, at night time, we're all standing here. There is a portal about to be opened. There are several people in the room. Two I have never seen before. And one who should not be here..... I need to talk to Prue.....”

Choi tightened his lips. He couldn’t fully place trust in the sketchy priest. He seemed to be involved in all this. He’d rather trust the Halliwell sisters. At least that had allowed them to work from their mansion.

“And you expect us to trust you,” Yeong distrustfully said. “You who unleashed a lich?”

He looked to the Halliwell sisters. “Just what does this Book of Saint Ede do?”

Duane said, "The Lich was released by accident. A byproduct of something I had to do. "

"We remember reading about it in the book of shadows 26 years ago. Even though that was very vague, it had something to do with protection from portals." said Piper.

Phoebe looked towards Prue with a look of worry. "Prue, let's go outside."

"Piper continued, "Let's all head upstairs to the attic and see what we can find out.”

"Sure," Alyssa agreed to look into the cowboys in Cambodia, but before she began was distracted by what Duane said.

It was making more sense the more the man talked but what did he mean about,"The Organization."

Phoebe and Prue went outside, for whatever reason. Alyssa stood up, "I'll go upstairs with you."

It was then she tried her dad's chip, fortunately, it worked once away from evil liches. [i]We're headed up to the attic? Where are you?[i]
