Maybe, could be fun. Tommy thought as he began investigating the books again. Actually in terms of my healing I've been thinking I might be able to speed things up with your help. Do you know if there are any Ley-line intersections around here?

"I guess we could ask where they are, and I'm sure I saw Leland head upstairs with Tommy. I'll run up and ask him." Jason said to Katie before bounding up the steps.
As he reached the door, he heard Leland's voice on the other side. He knocked on said door before peering his head in, so it wouldn't seem like he was intruding. His eyes widened as he quickly noticed the the many shelves of the library, chock-full of interlectual, yet sorcerous reading material.
"Umm, sorry if i'm interrupting anything Leland, but do you know where the greenhouse is? Oh, and do you guys have like a, gym or combat course, or something?" Jason asked as politely as he could.

"I will bring the team into this if you don't tell me by god. This affects them as well you blind fool. What you are really deciding is how many people will know. If you tell me,I can compensate for the fact you may very well be a traitor. Alternatively, you can not tell me, and I will inform them of the possible treason you have brought to the team, making them all think of you as the spy you are. Remember, I've been the one with the plans so far, think I can't write your ass out of them. I could have you doing coffee runs and filing papers while the rest of us do work that actually requires trust." Richard replied quietly. He then turned to Aaron.
"He just won't stop insisting that I secretly like the name Blue Steel, which I hate with a passion. The more he insists upon it the more pissed I get. You'd think he was trying to antagonize me." He turned his attention back to Simon before speaking lowly again.
"Now, either you can tell me, or I can bring it for the team to decide. It is your choice, but know you have no other options. It only means one way I still have enough respect for and trust in you to actually come up with a plan to use you against my suits, the other way, you simply become a liability I don't involve in any way."

"Yay, glad that you'd be fine with it," Leland said cheerfully. He thought for a moment at Tommy's question, turning towards the table and conjuring up a map.
"I believe there is one around the lake," he replied, taking a look at the map of the area they were in. "Three mountains, and in the center is the lake where it would be at. Is this one good enough or shall I look for others?"
Leland turned towards Jason when he entered the library. "We do indeed have an exercise room that can be used. Lots of painful memories there. Imagine my surprise when my mother actually meant that she wouldn't go easy on me," Leland said with a laugh. "Ah, but getting there can be complicated. Would you prefer I just show you where it is instead of giving you complicated directions?" he asked.

Still smiling Simon placed a hand on Richards shoulder
"Keep it between us and I'll tell you everything. Tell someone and I will do terrible things Richard. You have me in a corner now and if you keep pushing...well its like what happens when you corner an animal"
Laughing he turned to Aaron
"You have to admit, its a good nickname for him right?"

"Well you do need a better name then Blue Steel. There are thousands of names you could have. Rad, Zealot, The Reaver, Techno, the possibilities are endless,"
Aaron chuckled before getting up,"I'll hit you guys up later I'm going for a walk."
With that Aaron jumped off the roof and started making his rounds around the property.

A body of water is perfect, water is synonymis with healing an intersection in a lake will have tons of healing energy. I'll need you to come with me though, there's a spell that needs to be cast and I'm rubish at actual spells. Tommy turned around to face Jason and waved hello.
Richard returned to his normal volume.
"You're threatening me, cute. Well, you can take a number there, because I have more death threats from more people than you have ever met in your life. Let's also not forget I have the suit you see now. If I wanted to, I could fight and kill you simply because sooner or later you will give up or get tired and make a mistake. You see, an animal backed into a corner doesn't scare you if you are in a tank. By the way, don't think I can't live out of the suit, because I very well can and have. It's called a stress test for a reason." Richard replied blandly.
"Now, will the witty banter and death threats continue, or can we get to something more substantial?" He was not in any way impressed or scared by the death threat.

Simon grinned and shook his head
"You think I'd be dumb enough to target you directly? I have knives and I can teleport...pop inside a club with a bunch of young people...how many do you think I could take down in a few swipes? But yes, lets move on..."
He resumed sitting, stretching out his legs
"This stays between us then?"

"A club full of people is nothing compared to the billions who will die when the battle with the suits starts. Now, it may have been effective if I didn't have that to put it in perspective. As it is, all you will do is reconfirm my suspicion that you are a traitorous bastard. Nice try though." Richard replied dryly.
"For now, I will keep your secret, but should you lie to me again I will bring the team in on this and I will tell them everything."
"For now, I will keep your secret, but should you lie to me again I will bring the team in on this and I will tell them everything."
"Dear god, don't do that. I've had to deal with troopers before, not my happiest moment. Sir this, sir that, never could just call me by my damn name, even after I ordered them to do so. But at the moment, no, nothing I have to ask. You know my questions and know I want answers to them. If I don't have them by the time the battle comes, I will not be involving you in the battle. Just consider that incentive to tell me in a somewhat timely manner." Richard replied.
"How about I sum it up in four words?"
Simon asked, his smile twitching a bit as he held up his hand
"I. Hate. You. All."
He said, lifting up one finger for every word he said, waggling his fingers around in a joking manner but the seriousness in his face showed he wasn't kidding

"Fair enough. Sad your reason is so anti-climactic, and rather petty to be quite honest. I mean, to join an enemy just because you don't like the team? Guess that speaks a lot about your character though. Hell, we don't even know each other that well, you even admitted as much a few seconds ago. Then again, if you are going to hate us based on what are probably stereotypes and preconceived notions, probably better you did join the Union. Staying with us if you hated us for such, frankly stupid, reasons would have made you the biggest liability on the team." Richard replied dryly again.
"Oh please, spare me your bullshit. You really can't see it, can you? How weak this team really is..."
Shaking his head Simon walked to the edge of the roof and looked out at the scenery
"I could go into detail but I can already see your preconceived judgement on me seeping through your suit. You're just as frail as the rest of them, unwilling to see how wrong you all are but hey, ignorance is bliss eh?"

"I could go into detail but I can already see your preconceived judgement on me seeping through your suit. You're just as frail as the rest of them, unwilling to see how wrong you all are but hey, ignorance is bliss eh?"
"It isn't ignorance, we are weak, for now. That's the beauty of it though. Do you think Patriot, Camille, or any of the other powerful heroes just were at birth? They started weak themselves they trained, learned their abilities inside and out, had internal strife with their respective teams and had to work through it. I read as much in each team's files, they all were us at some point. It took time, but they were patient and became far stronger because of their patience. I think I understand your problem, it's your way of thinking. Rather than looking at what will come, you look at the amount of what is. That's why you don't like being forced to wait, want to make one big change rather than many small ones, why you don't plan actions ahead of time, and why you think us weak. You look too much at the now, rather than what will come. Probably why you thought killing a club would have made me stop putting pressure on you, but I think in terms of longevity, so it means nothing to me in the long run." Richard thought it over for a minute and began to laugh.
"I bet you don't even see what the magnitude of the actions you have already made can be. That has to be the funniest joke I have ever heard. A man wanting to change the world who doesn't realize he already has because it wasn't big enough for him to take notice. A man who is so blind to anything but the present he doesn't even see how his actions may have changed the very future of this planet. Then turns around and calls the man blind who looks at the horizon and not at his feet. That is something truly hilarious." Richard continued to laugh.

Leland nodded at Tommy, telling Jason, "I'm needed elsewhere. However...lemme just make a map of the Lodge for you to follow..." He then conjured up a small map that showed their current whereabouts and where the greenhouse and exercise rooms were. He handed it to Jason before following Tommy out of the Library.
"This'll be fun. Haven't done anything like this in awhile."
