The group appeared with half of them popping up from under the table sending it flying and the other half just next to the table. Unfortunately Jack, Marcus with Pavati in hand, and Ryuu where under the table. Instantly Echidna let out a fire ball from being startled. Sylvana let out a hiss and pulled a knife out from under the counter, but relaxed when she saw it was her boss and his group. "Took you long enough." Viper said in a beautiful rich voice. Echidna looked at Viper and hissed "Yeah but now there are more of them. Sylvana get the rooms ready. I thing we might need them." Viper glared at Echidna and whispered in a dangerous voice, "My name is Viper." Jack let out a sigh. He could see them breaking out into one of their infamous fights and he needed to end it quickly. "Vipes please get the room ready. Echidna please pour us some drinks." Both women gave a nod and went to do what they where asked. Then looked expectantly at Marcus who in turn shrugged and looked to Count.

(Count walked over to the triplets. He watched as Alex carried his injured brother in his arms. Alex turned to Jack.)
Alex: I'm going to take Nick to one of the rooms to rest. He'll need it if he is to make a quick recovery.
(Alex didn't wait for anyone to say another word. He then followed Viper to the rooms. James looked at Jack and Alex before deciding to also tend to his brother as well and ran after them. Count went over to the bar table and pulled out a chair. He sat down and placed his hand on his head. Teleporting at such a long distance with this large of a group made his head hurt. He looked at the woman that was just barely leaving, the woman Jack referred to as Echidna.)
Count: Can you please put some extra ice on mine?

Echidna did as she was asked, making Count's with extra ice and Jack's extra strong. "I am going to take this one to my room. Jack, tell tall dark and scary what you found out." Marcus said. "Oh and order us some pizza." Jack let out a sigh. "Well, I found out that they took Miss Winterfire to a mansion in Pennsylvania." Jack said. "Which is strange because I only knew of the one in New York." Jack kept his voice cautious. He knew Count was a dangerous man and didn't want to get hurt.

Marcus carried Pavati up to his room and carefully placed her on his bed. Marcus wondered if this was her first transformation. He knew how those went and decided it was best for him to put a shirt on her, just in case. He grabbed his biggest baggiest shirt and carefully slid it on the she-wolf. Looking down at the girl, Marcus knew that he had to keep her away from Count. Memories of what happened to the blond girl that he had encountered earlier made him shiver. <It is unnatural.> Marcus thought. He repeated his promise to the Pavati. "I will not let him do the same thing to you."

Ryuu yowled when the table flew, but got up indignity and brushed himself off. With his ears pressed hard against his head he watched the near fight and then everyone leaving. The problem was that he had not been assigned a room nor had he been offered a chair. Due to his culture and his upbringing, he could go nowhere unless that was done. For now, he wondered the bar, just liking the fact that he now had more room to pace.

(Count thought of what Jack had said. "There was another mansion?" he thought to himself. Then he remembered Sara's obsession in finding Mindcontrol. She mentioned something about finding his location at a mansion in Pennsylvania, but he disregarded it as unimportant at the time.)
Count: This is interesting news indeed.
(At the corner of his eye, Count spotted the cat-man rooming around. He still didn't know how he was. Plus, seeing him walk around was giving Cont a headache. He turned to the cat-man and spoke to him.)
Count: Hey you, come over here. What's your name?

Ryuu's ears perked up and he looked over at Count. He contemplated disobeying the order, but thought better of it. He cleared his throat and headed over the man, holding his hand out as he did, "Ryuu. My name is Ryuu."

(Count took the Ryuu's hand and shook it firmly. He looked at his eyes as he introduced himself.)
Count: My name is Count. I'm the leader of this team. Young man, I want to personally thank you for helping my team out today. Not many people would have done what you did, especially a criminals given the opportunity of escaping into freedom. They don't make people with good hearts like you anymore.
(He let go of Ryuu's hand. Count looked around, wondering where his drinks were. Though he was too polite to ask, so he continued waiting. He turned his attention back to the mutant in front of him.)
Count: So Ryuu, if you don't mind me asking, why were you held in that cell? What did you do?

Ryuu blushed at the man's kind words. He wasn't used to being treated nicely. At the question however, the boy smirked, "Just some petty theft and spy work. I'm pretty good that the second when I want to be. Comes with the upbringing." He laughed softly and shook his head, "I think the only real reason I was down there was because of the way I look."

Count: Yeah, if you looked like them, they probably would have put you in a normal cell. Treated you with some amount of respect and dignity. Instead of like an animal. Over time, you soon believe their words and their reasoning behind their actions. It doesn't take long before you are consumed and you become that animal.
(Count put his hands together in a way so that only the tips of his fingers were touching each other.)
Count: Are you an animal?

Ryuu contemplated the man's words for a moment. They made sense and he shrugged, "All my life I've been told I am an animal. A monster. My own mother killed herself because I came out looking like that." He laughed harshly and shook his head, "To tell you the truth sir, I don't know what I am anymore."

Count: Let me tell you young man, you're not an animal and you most certainly aren't a monster. You know who are the true animals? You know who are the true monsters? They're the people who put you in that cell in the first place. Those kind of people lost what made them real, what made them special a long time ago. Stick with me kid and you'll make something great out of yourself. If you refuse, there's the door.

Ryuu smirked. He'd heard propaganda before and this was just that. This man was a human-hater and he made no attempt to hide it. However, this man had also welcomed him and offered him a place. The young cat wasn't sure how long this would last, but he was one of opportunity. He looked into Count's eyes and nodded, "I'm in."

(Count nodded his head that Ryuu was joining the Sovereigns. Though he would still have to prove himself like everyone else.)
Count: Glad to hear it. You're not a member of the Sovereigns just yet. For now, just take it easy. Would you like to take a seat?

Ryuu smiled and nodded. However, he say on the floor in front of the man with his legs tucked neatly under him. The young cat looked up at Count and smiled, "Is there anything you would like to know about me?"
