Topic: The Plan To Rescue Mayday.

Forest colored depths fluttered open. Darcy was awake. Early. Mega early. Like...Crack of dawn early. She sighed. She hadn't gotten much sleep last night. Especially after the events that had happened. The pain of losing her best friend after three thousand years was still fresh in her heart and written on her face.

She turned over pulling Shadow close to her. Burying her face in his warmth. Inhaling his smell deeply. He was something warm and alive. Reality check for her. She rose up slightly to kiss his lips, "It's time to get up love..."

She murmured as she pulled away and climbed out of the bed. She put little thought into her clothing. An oversized black band shirt that depicted Black Sabbath, black hiphugging baggy fuzzy pajama pants, and her black fuzzy slippers. Without a word she ran her brush through her hair before putting it up in a ponytail.

She moved to the curtains that were closed and threw them open. Letting the first rays of dawn pour into the room in a warm embrace to flow over her sleeping lover. She then turned to open the door and leaving it open walked out.

Her next stop was David's room. He was just a part of this as anyone else was. Not only was he her brother but he adored Mayday. She opened the door and leaving it open walked in. Careful not to run into anything. Like an artist his room was a mess of matte pencils, brushes, markers, paints, paper, canvases, and easels. Smiling a bit to herself. He really was talented just like her.

She moved over to pull back the curtains to let the sunlight in before she crawled onto the bed. Her brother didn't know. He was gonna take the news hard, "Davey...Get up. It's important. I need you up."

She said as she gently shook her brother and kissed his forehead. With that she crawled off of the bed and out of the room. Her next stop? Jin and May's room. Was Jin there? She had left in such a rush with Ankie last night disturbed by this mess that she hadn't even thought about dragging him home with her. She'd apologize later.

She opened the door and like the others left it open. Whether or not Jin was in there she moved to yank open the curtains to let the sunlight in. And if he was there she would move over to the bed and shake him, "Jin get up...It's today we move into action to get her back."

She left the room with those words hanging in the air. Her last and final stop was Ankie's room. Mayday's brother. One of her former lovers of eons ago. Just like Jin and Darcy he was a huge part of this. She opened the door to his room. Honestly she had never been in here and didn't know what to expect. However she moved right for the curtains and pulled them open before turning for the bed. Leaning over to shake him awake, "Ankie love get up..."

Her lips pressed to his forehead to get him to rouse from his slumber before she left the room. Now wandering down the hall she entered the kitchen. Flipping on the switch and pushing the curtains open. She needed as much light and warmth as she could get right now.

Cupboards and drawers were open and shut as she pulled out plates, silverware, a skillet, and a baking sheet. The plates and silverware set on the table in the dining room where they ate. The skillet on the stove. She turned on the stove. Moving to the fridge she pulls out bacon, sausage, a carton of eggs, and some biscuits and rolls to make.

Opening the bacon package she tosses a few strips into the skillet. It began to sizzle. Moving to grab a large bowl she began cracking eggs into it mixing it all with the whisk. Scrambled eggs for everyone. Once it was mixed she set it aside. Moving back over to the skillet she flips over the bacon strips with a spatula. If her going from door-to-door didn't rouse anyone then the smell of cooking definately would.

They would need a full stomach and a clear head in order to plan properly to rescue their dear Mayday.

*David was deep in his slumber. Dreaming of his piano man. His Ryan. His face twisting in distaste from the sunlight bathing his face. Then he felt a weight on the bed. Becoming aware but not opening his eyes. Then he felt and heard his sister's words. His eyes opening as he blinked against the sunlight.* What's up?

*He had asked but she had already moved on. Kicking the covers off he pulled on a pair of black skinny jeans and a plain black tight shirt. Not bothering to brush his hair he peeked out of his room. After seeing his sister do her wake up call he followed her to the kitchen. He remained silent as he watched her begin to cook. The smell of bacon wafting in his nose his stomach growled.* You better make two packs of that stuff cause I'm hungry.

*He smiled as he then moved to make sure the table was set properly. Once it was he moved back into the kitchen. She was doing food so he was doing drinks. He pulled out the orange juice, apple juice, and milk. As well as glasses. Coffee mugs were also pulled out. He began the process of making coffee as he glanced over to his sister.* You look like your best friend has died Darce.

*He chuckled at his own joke then his face paled as realization came over him from the pained look on his sister's face.* Wait...Where's Mayday?

*When Darcy wouldn't answer he abandoned his mission of making coffee and ran as fast as he could to Jin and May's room. His eyes going wide to not seeing her there. He looked in her office. She wasn't there. He looked where the Jello was made. She wasn't there. He knew she wouldn't be at the Inn cause Darcy would be there too. Breathless he made his way back into the kitchen.* Tell me what the f*ck happened Darcy and tell me where the bloody f*cking Hell Mayday is!

*He demanded in a growl as he set to finishing making that coffee with stiff jerky angry movements. The fact that his firecracker had disappeared and no one was talking irked him very much.*

Ankie came down from his room about thirty minutes later. Showered, shaven. He wore two things hand hand't in far to many centuries. He had his old bracers from his greek era on. He had them strapped to his forearms tightly. He had his hair pulled back and tied behind his head. Skin tight muscle shirt and long pants, was it the end of the world? He had on boots....Go figure. He was angry, the bracers helped focus the energy he could shoot from his fingers.

Achilles looked to Darcy and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Darcy. We will get her back." He had only ever let that much anger grace his voice one.... The unjustified murder of Patroclus... One of his best friends. He turned and tightened his belt. He looked up as if looking to the gods. He paid David no never-mind. They didn't get along to well. Achilles had his trademark breakfast waiting in the fridge to be heated up. A meal he had eaten since ancient Greece herself. A little lamb and rice, small piece of fish, Topped off with a small thing of bread and a glass of water. All it needed was to be heated up in the microwave.

THey could turn their noses up at it all they wanted. He enjoyed the meal the way it was. If they had any problems. They could kiss his Demi-god ass. Darcy was the only one that could attempt to get him to eat something different.

Darcy was only a bit surprised to seeing David walk in first. Honestly she was expecting Shadow to pop up first. The ninja was just that...Her shadow. Always at her back. Protection when she needed it most. He protected her better than any Trojan condom ever could.

The thought made her chuckle a bit and blush as she removed the strips of bacon and tossed in some more. At hearing they were gonna need two packs she pulled another pack out of bacon. She said a silent thanks to seeing David get out the drinks. Honestly it hadn't crossed her mind.

Suffice to say while she was sizzling the bacon she quirked a brow to her brother's antics and to Ankie's choice of food. One thing at a time. She sighed looking at her brother as she turned over the bacon, "May has been taken. By...Some monster. Ankie, Shadow, Jin, Neo, this other woman, and I were all there and tried to prevent it. Now...I'm cooking this huge ass breakfast. You're gonna help me. Because it's more likely that people might've gotten wind of this and will be coming over to try and help."

That was her explination to her brother as she put the bacon on a plate and added more strips to the skillet she looked at Achilles, "Ankie love...Not that I don't agree with your choice of wardrobe or food...But maybe you should eat something else? I mean...I am making this food for all of you. And David is making coffee. Please? For me?"

Batting her eyes with that pleading look on her face. Breakfast was the most important meal of the day. Brain food. And she'd be damned if anyone wasn't going to get it. She had bought and was slaving over a hot stove after all!

*David took the news about as well as Darcy would expect. A look of shock overcoming his face that was an exact twin's of his sister save for the masculine features. His face crumbling around the edges as he dropped to his knees staring at the ground in disbelief.* May...No...Not May...No...

*He whispered shaking his head over and over again. It was then that very dimly he heard Achilles. He knew who he was. He knew he was May's sister. Angry he looked as he rose to his feet looking at the man.* Why?

*That one word. He was asking why the brother had let his sister get taken. Though Achilles was in the same position that David had once been in. When Anubis took Darcy. Many people asked him why. He still held a grudge against his dear sister for that. But that anger would have to be put aside for another day. The coffee was done being made and he leaned against the counter. Crossing his arms. And looking very very unhappy.*

HE sighed hearing Darcy. "Damn woman.....One day I will work up the nerve to say no to you... And I am shocked. No applause for wearing pants instead of shorts?" He pointed and put his normal meal away. He looked to David and just glared. Yes David was in the same boat. But the link Ankle and May had....It was something they had formed after YEARS of pounding, slapping and kicking the crap out of each other. He knew when things were wrong with her.

He clenched his fists, the bracers did their job. He sighed and took a deep calming breath. He looked to David still. "Why. If I could have saved her I would have. I felt something wrong and came as fast as I could. Gone when I got there." He turned and held his hands up. "You felt the same way when D was gone yes? Then get off my back before I fry you off of it." He moved and sat down crossing his arms. He would say no more.

Shadow slipped into the room, in time to catch everything that had been said. As he moved to stand behind Darcy, looking over those that had gathered so far. One brow quirked, to the male running off at the mouth to David.

"Lose the attitude.. It won't help." Said in a calm cool tone of voice, before he moved to help Darcy with the cooking and setting the table. Once that was done, he patted David on the shoulder before he moved to sit down by Darcy.

"I could careless who you are, or who you are related to here. You don't threaten anyone here. You want to help..Fine..but leave the attitude behind." This said towards the male that spoke rudely to David.

Okay. Instead of cooking food for about three to four people she ended up making enough food for about fifteen. Cause...Dudes ate a lot. She smiled her thanks to Shadow. Managing to steal a kiss when he passed her and give his bum a little squeeze. Slight wink sent to his way before she sighed turning her attention to Achilles, "Firstly...You've never ever been able to say no to me after all these years and why would you now? And secondly...I am quite shocked that you're actually wearing pants and shoes. This is a first. Hold on a second."

To which she whipped out her cell phone and snapped a picture of him. It was a historic moment. Chuckling she put it away and after setting the table she looked at David, "Since you've seemed to remember the drinks please put them on the table."

Now dusting her hands off and whatnot she cleaned up and finally sat down at the table to eat shooting Ankie a sharp look, "Look sweetums I know you're pissed. We all our. But that pissiness ain't gonna get us anywhere. So sit down, shut up, eat and please don't take it out on my brother or Shadow. Because next to May they mean the most to me and you don't wanna see me angry Ankie."

Leaving it at that she began to dig into her food and eat.

*David honestly didn't really get a chance to say anything. Shadow and Darcy did it for him. So he just shrugged it all off and set the apple juice, orange juice, milk, and coffee on the table. Sitting down as well he piled the food on his plate and began to chow down.*

After breakfast was done she left David and Shadow to clean up the mess. Which was just the plates, glasses, and silverware. All the dishes she used up cooking were already cleaned and put away.

Needing a moment to herself and a smoke she steps outside. Leaning against the door as she slips a clove between her lips. The Zippo that Lilith had given her as a birthday present was used to light said clove.

She took a deep drag inhaling the smoke feeling it go all the way through her body before exhaling. It was still a bit dark. She saw something...By the gate. What was that?

Taking another drag she walks down the steps and to the gate. Something...As big as a person. White sheet. A flower? Frowning she sticks the clove between her lips and bends down.

Forest depths widen in surprise. It was May! "Holy shit!"

She spits out the clove and wraps her arms around her best friend trying to lift her up. She looks back towards the house, "Here! She's here! Somebody help me!"

She screams at the house. Collapsing to the ground she pulls Mayday into her lap. Crying as she strokes her friend's face pushing her hair out of the way, "Celestina...My dear Celestina...I'm not ever gonna let you go. I won't let that monster take you again. Sweet Celestina...I'm so sorry..."

Holding her best friend tightly to her as she cried rocking her back and forth waiting for the calvary to come to the rescue.

":I know, but I failed my own sister. I failed May... Daivd knows how I feel. Im pissed at myself because I couldn't help her..." He sighed and threw his hands up once more. He shook his head and realized he was fighting an up-hill battle.

He was the first to run. Sliding to a dead stop, well one because he hit the wall by the door, and two would be if he didn't....he would have flipped over May and Darcy.

He fell to his knees. He moved to May and Darcy. "Half....Pint..." He clenched his hands tightly. He was saddened, angered and releaved all at the same time. He was at a loss for words.

After helping to clean up the dishes, he was moving find Darcy..When he heard her voice, then bolted to her side. With Achilles getting there barely before he did. Upon seeing what the comotion was about, he spoke.

"Let's get her inside..now." Murmured to Darcy as he moved to help her to carry May inside, so they could tend to her wounds.

They were gonna have a Hell of a time prying May from her arms. Because no friggin' way was she letting her go. She held onto her tightly yet like the woman was a fragile doll. Still crying and with their help they moved inside the house.
