Myst was the one that was alerted to Angel’s faint first. She gasped and reached up for her, but the blue haired woman was already a stiff board and dropping. Cade stiffened a moment before they heard the thud, then simultaneously felt bad and smiled. This was a lovely mess, wasn’t it? “Take care of this one, I’ll see if she is okay.” Cade offered, leaving Sandra’s side for Angel. He checked her pulse, found it racing even after passing out.

Jakob watched a moment, before turning back to the woman before him. “Are you okay?”

Cassandra looked passed them for a moment, clearly worried about her, then turned to him. “Oui. I mean, yes.” The man with the shiny red arm didn’t look all that confused by her mistake. “Um.. Parlez-vous Francais?” Jakob just stared at her blankly. She guessed not. “Will she be okay?”

“She just fainted, that’s all,” Cade assured their guest.

“Yes.” The Russian said, with a lighter accent than the French woman, his tone flat but still very colorful.

“Daccord.” Myst said with a sigh and a touch of her chest. “Where am I?”

Jakob wondered if no one paid attention to the white man, or if maybe he dreamed up this Omni figure and he was the only one. “The Om-ni-verse.” Jakob had to explain slowly because his tongue was not used to forming complicated words and thoughts. “You are Prime, Omni summoned you.”

“Prime?” The woman repeated thoughtfully, then it all made sense. Omni was that guy, non? “Zat is correct. I zaw him, just before I…” She looked over her shoulder at the fountain, not enjoying the idea of water any more than she did before. Cassandra then turned to Cade. “Merci beaucoup. Thank you.” She translated, taking off her glasses and rubbing her eyes. They were a defined green.

She went to clean her glasses but remembered she was a wet mess. Luckily for her, Jakob knew what she was doing. He took off his hooded vest and then his shirt. About this time Angel momentarily came back to, only to watch Jakob do this and turn it around in his hands. It was not like Jakob was impressively attractive, but the instant shipping that went on in her head created Angel’s blood to flow a bit too hot and her head lulled back once more.

Jakob offered the dry part of his shirt.

“Merci.” Sandra said, then cleaned them off, apparently not aware of Angel’s brief revival. It was spotty and a terrible cleaning job, but it was better than not being able to see at all.

In the meantime, Jakob summoned a towel. He could not clear his head of a strip of fabric he’d seen that was a bright blue and dotted with yellow duckies. It was childish, but the towel was warm and freshly clean. When she was satisfied with her glasses he dropped it over her like a blanket and smiled. Myst looked shocked, and then blushed very brightly as she looked away.

“That should help. I can just summon more when we get to beach.” Jakob said, kneeling back in the puddle she had made by being pulled out.

With it on top of such a smooth white surface, Myst wondered if it would be dangerous to other people. She began to run her towel through her short hair. She didn’t like the idea of being near more water. “Where iz that, and what iz in the oppozite direction?” She asked, her accent icing over her words.

“It iz this way.” He said, pointing towards Coruscant’s portal. He knew the long way, but there was no one to stop him and tell him that there was a gate just next to it that would be easier. “And..” Jakob paused, looking the opposite way of Coruscant. He pointed towards the closes door. “I think it is Tangled Greens that is over there.” He informed. “Or vas it Ashen Steppes?”

Trick question; It was both.

Myst nodded abruptly, then stood on her legs, finding that she lacked shoes still. She curled tighter in the towel. Omni said that she just had to think of things she wanted and the Omnilium would make it. Like Jakob made the towel. She could wait for shoes. “Zen I will go there. Merci, Monsieur. Et tu, Monsieur.” She nodded to Jakob then Cade, hesitating at Angel. “I ‘ope zat she iz truly okay,” Myst said, nodding once more before lightly jobbing in the opposite direction and away from the horrid water.

Jakob and Cade were left scratching their heads. More Jakob than The Centurion as he was trying to wake Angel up once again. The Russian shook his head: “Udachi.” He said, then turned to Angel and their new friend. He pulled on his wife-beater and then his armored vest. “Angel. Get up. We go to the beach now.” He said, picking her up like a doll. Cade had no idea how to stop him or if he should. “You, too. Yes?” Jakob said, grabbing him by the shoulder with his fleshy hand. “This way. I know shortcut.” He claimed but headed for the Coruscant gate despite Vasty Deeps being very near it. “We get cottoncandy.. And Popkorn.”
