Charon glanced over his shoulder to see what Sophie was looking at; when he saw the wall, he almost stopped in his tracks to touch it in fascination. Almost. Rather, he held back his curiosity and kept following the group with David, giving a small smile at his compliments. "Thanks," he said gratefully. "You said that you could find anyone you wanted, didn't you?"

David payed barely any attention to the wall. "Yep, and I can change my appearance to look like other people." He answered, grinning at Charon again. As he followed after the others his appearance slowly shifted until he looked just like the other boy. "See."
Marisia followed after Chikao, everything seemed easy. Too easy. "No one let their guard down...it should be harder than this." She informed them. "We need to protect Chikao since she knows the way out, got it?" She asked.

"Protection?" Chikao asked "I need none." She added confidently, She was going to be the done to lead the way out, she wasn't calling the shots but she knew the workings. Possible exit places, then again, what would happen if she only lead them farther in? she took an a deep breath, that was a risk she was willing to take. "Let us go." She nodded speeding forward, hoping that their good luck would not run out. "I'm scared..." Sophie muttered under her breath to Marisia. -- Jerome ran through the hall at the fastest pace he could, He could hear the sounds of voices behind him. he need ed to run quickly and quietly. he passed the three hundreds and the four hundreds in no time. he slowed down when he saw the carnage, metal shards everywhere. Jerome ran over the metal he didn't care that he was getting cut by the sharp metal. his daughter's very life was at stake. and he needed to get to her whatever the cost. It was then that he hit a wall... No literally, he hit a wall. it was as solid as solid can ever possibly be. It felt real, and it looked real enough. However, there was something to quite right about the wall. it passed right through the center of a cell door. Who would make a wall like that? Jerome touched the door again, he imagined it tearing the middle. for some reason it didn't work. Jerome pushed on the door, he pushed on it and he fell through it. Right though it. "Weird..." he said. He paused, he still heard talking, five people, a group of teenagers, then there was one voice... A small girl. Sophie?

Charon actually let out a laugh. The first laugh he had given in a long while, as he saw himself on David's features. "I-I look like a mess," he said, trying to fix his hair like David was a mirror. In the middle of trying to comb his messy hair through with his fingers, he remembered the situation and frowned. "Th-that's neat," he said, glancing away immediately. "Really cool. You could fool anyone with that,"

David's appearance slowly shifted back into his own. "Yeah, it's great, not too good for much though, it doesn't increase my strength or speed." He said. "I like your abilities much better." He threw a wink in Charon's direction.
Marisia patted Sophie's head with her free hand. "It'll be fine, you'll be kept safe." She said reassuringly. She continued to follow after Chikao, trusting her guidance completely. She looked back at David and Charon behind her and scoffed. "Quit flirting you two."

Jerome looked behind him, eh couldn't hear the guards from behind the wall. Instinctively eh knew this was bad. You always wan tot be able to hear your chasers, then you know how fast to run. Assuming that they were now much closer to him he didn't waste any time. He ran as if he was being chased by people who wanted him dead. In other words exactly how you should run in his situation. His heart raced, his side began to hurt and his breathing was heavy but he dare not let himself slow down. The voices in front of him became louder and he stopped. He pressed himself into the shadow of a cell. "Okay..." Sophie said. She stopped she felt a feeling that was very familiar to her. "Dad?" She asked looking back and let go of Marisia's hand. "I think my dad is near us!" She said looking at all of her party members.

Charon went bright red, shaking his head rapidly and crossing his arms sharply. "Sh-shut up, you!" He growled at Marisia, trying to sound manly and buff. "We weren't flirt-" Of course, all good things (or moderately flirty things, Charon thought with a scowl) had to end, as he heard Sophie and glanced toward her. "Well... should we wait? Just in case he's having a hard time catching up or... something?"

Marisia stopped at Sophie's words. "We should try and find him, it'd be better to have a large team in order to overtake any guards that try and kill us." She said. "Which way do you think he is?"
David also went bright red, but just smiled that stupid foolish smile.

"he was.. He was back there..." She pointed back to the far wall, the sand convenient wall. "Crazy." Chikao said walking back to Marisia and Sophie. "Do you know how all of this?" "I can feel him, he's all calm and reassuring..." Sophie said. She ran back int eh direction that she was not supposed to go, back toward the illusionist's wall, out of Charon's circle of light.
Jerome listened closely to the voices, trying to pick out the voice of the girl. It was easy to recognize, after all, she was his daughter and the hallway echoed. Warily he stepped closer, a bright light made him squint, his eyebrows furrowed and he put his hands around his eyes as they adjusted. "Stephanie?" he asked to the air, if it was his daughter she would understand her full first name. "Daddy"She asked looking a the person now stepping into the light, she ran up to him and looked him in the eye. "Are you my Daddy?" She asked keeping her mind open to spot a lie. "If your name is Stephanie Williams, then I am." he replied Stephanie's eye slight up, she couldn't see much of the person other than their face but she could tell that they weren't lying, and their mood was so very like her father's. she warily reached out and hugged the person. "i missed you..." She mumbled as her eyes welled with tears.

Charon smiled softly to himself as he heard it, watching, rocking back and fourth on the tips of his toes, He was glad for them; finally, someone would watch the little girl properly, and make her feel safe. None of them could do that like a father could, he thought with a little grin. "W-we shouldn't stick around," he spoke up, guilty about ruining the moment, but making a point. "There's no point in being reunited if you die right after."

Marisia nodded. "Charon's right, we need to keep moving, or they'll catch us." She looked down the hall they were headed. "Lead the way again Chikao."
David smiled. "Awww how cute, they're back together..." He said.

"Right, go." Chikao said Turning around and running down the hall, she stopped to make sure the other's were following. "ON COME!" She called out. "Okay Sophie we, gotta go." Jerome said pulling his daughter off of him. he grabbed her hand and ran forward as fast as he could without losing her. Sophie ran quite fast as well, she was only eight, so she didn't run very fast, but she ran as fast as she could, her dirty and holey socks slipping on the metal floor. "We come to door soon, then stairs... maybe lock..." Chikao stopped and thought "never contemplated such obstacale to cross."

Charon turned to follow, but of course, he grabbed David's arm before moving at all, wanting to feel attached to him at all times. Without David, even though he barely knew the guy, he felt afraid, alone.. vulnerable. He knew that David would be the person to keep him going, so he took his arm and started off after the others, pulling him.

David looked surprised when Charon pulled him along. "So you're pulling me along now?" He asked, chuckling a bit. "That's cute."
Marisia followed after Chikao. "I'll break the lock if necessary." She stated.

Charon blushed darkly again, but shook his head, still pulling David along beside him. It felt food to be attached to someone, to have one truly designated person to care about. "Sh-shut up," he muttered shyly. "Hey," he started out to the others. "Shouldn't we be very careful? They probably have traps and stuff..."
