One of Craig's eyebrows went up. ''You're going to protect all of us, Captain Hook?'' Craig shook his head in disbelief. He turned to Cicero. Craig glanced from him to Mrs. Brown. A frown materialized on his face.
''Please care for Cicero, Mrs. Brown. In case I...'' Craig began to pause. ''In case I depart from this world.'' He smiled at Mrs. Brown and Cicero. ''I'll protect everyone here. MAAYYBEEEE even Sasha. Maybe.''

Sasha's eyes settled on Maeve for a few moments. He tried to remember if he already saw her. ''That's another person not attacking us. That's good, Alison.'' Sasha also saw Sean. ''I'm not sure if I remember seeing Sean earlier.''
Sasha refused to disrupt Sean with Erin and Maeve. *Let them be together, Sasha* he thought. Viewing Maeve and Erin caused him to smile behind his mask. A tear formed in the corner of his eye. That was when Sasha saw Cicero again. ''Thoughts about obtaining a pet wyvern, Alison?''

''There is something about the vampire queen that appeals to me, Harley. Although I still never viewed her. The vampire queen could turn out to be our enemy. Are we able to defeat her together if she attacks us? Perhaps we will be with her. Time will tell.''
What was it about the vampire queen that appealed to Omega Red? Her possible cruel nature? Her fangs? The fact that she was a bit like him? Omega Red was just like a vampire prior to getting the C-Synthesizer. The fact that he had to get others' life forces just to survive. Just like how a vampire had to consume blood.

As Maeve got up to hug Erin, she kept looking around at the crowd. The only piece of helpful information to come out of the stupid teleconference was an alert about a possible protest at the wedding, and she felt sad that she had to update Erin on that part of the day's agenda. This was supposed to be a day about happiness and love, and protesters should not be part of it at all.
"That was beautiful! And sorry I'm late. Emma and Scott asked me to sit in on a teleconference with SHIELD, and you know how those go. Blah blah blah," she concluded as she stuck out her tongue. "We're all on high alert anyway, despite the festivities here. They mentioned potential protests, but we expected that. So, is Sean ready for his big day? If he needs anything, I'd be more than happy to get it. And," Maeve started but then looked around again, "has anyone been asking about who you are bringing or who I'm bringing to the wedding? I hope not!"

OOC: Jackson Rydenborne's PB is Anthony Stewart Head/Giles from Buffy.
IC:
"I'm not sure what she looks like, Arkady, but I bet we can find someone who does," Harley said as she thought about the vampire queen. "I heard someone say her name is Aleera. I'm sure we'll find her eventually. Just look for the fanciest vampire lady that everybody is bowing to, and I bet it's her."
As she stood with her teammate, Harley saw another group of people making their way into the dining area. "OK, I know who that guy is, and I am staying away from him. As in going all the way to the moon away from him. I learned about him when Weapon X had me locked up with their resident head shrinker, Doctor Mindbender. Jackson Rydenborne, the father of the bride and the biggest weapons dealer in Europe. If you ever want to snack on anybody, I'd put him right at the top of the list. They'd hold a parade for you! All those immortal types seem to hate him. He drove his last wife nuts and locked her in some asylum for demented witches. Grade A maniac. And I don't give a rat's patoot if he is the father of the bride. He experimented on people. He is no better than dirt."

''Aleera?'' Omega Red muttered. He tilted his head to one side in curiosity. He tried to imagine what a vampire queen would wear. A long dress? A dark crown? No crown at all?
Omega Red glanced at others and frowned. ''I guess there are quite a few people you'll avoid, Harley.'' His eyes widened at the mention of Weapon X. Omega Red faced Harley. ''Why did Weapon X imprison you, Harley? Why would someone wish to shrink your head?''
Omega Red still frowned. ''I was the Soviet version of Weapon X.'' Omega Red smiled at the mention of snacking on him. ''Perhaps I can attack this fellow after the wedding.'' Omega Red's frown returned. ''I know what it's like to be experimented on.''

Craig began to frown another time. ''Something nasty is going to occur. I just don't know when,'' he said. Craig focused on Cicero and Mrs. Brown. *Will I be able to protect the ones I cherish? How will I protect them without burning the place to the ground?*
Craig glanced at Captain Hook as his frown remained. *Captain Hook might be obnoxious, but he does have his hook. He is probably good with other weapons.* Craig rolled his eyes. His shoulders slumped. He turned to Jack.
''I never considered feminine possible enemies. Captain Hook probably won't attack them. He's a gentleman. Captain Hook will probably remove his hat and bow near them. He is too polite near women, Jack. Most likely his mother's influence,'' Craig said.

''We should depart in case things go wrong, Erinyes. Others may try to protect us, but still. Will a force shield around the building protect us? Perhaps one of our enemies can teleport. Was that ability considered?'' Worry filled Major Domo's eyes for a moment.
''If Spiral is one of our enemies here...'' Major Domo didn't wish to imagine Spiral attacking Erinyes and her family. Spiral was able to wield multiple weapons and use spells. She was also capable of teleporting. Not to mention her wild behavior. Spiral's smile was sometimes a mask for her cruel nature.

Captain Hook's eyes widened. He concentrated on Blackwell. He frowned. ''I'm not sure if I can explain this. I have a feeling that I may eventually come across my brother. Maybe I'll be alive. Maybe I'll be a mere spirit.''
Captain Hook gasped. ''Perhaps someone revived my elder brother! He will remember me defeating him years ago. Captain Jasper Hook will probably torment me for a long time. He'll wish for me to suffer. Jasper may not end my life.''
Captain Hook smiled at his hook again. ''I defeated Jasper once. I'll defeat him again. Perhaps I'll remove Jasper's other eye.'' His smile stretched from ear to ear another time. ''I'll protect everyone from my brother.''
Captain Hook heard every word from Craig. Scowling, he trembled for a few moments. He turned to Craig. ''You are correct about my mother influencing me.'' Captain Hook smiled again. ''My pirate brother influenced me as well.''

"Mother I completely understand why you were late I am just glad you made it. As for the protesters there is a part of me that is angered by it but there is another part of me that understands at least to a point. I just hope none of them do anything stupid I mean with those connected to the Phoenix among our ranks as well as numerous other powerful mystics etc here that would be a disaster in the making." She said thinking about the people outside.
"As for Sean I think he is OK he is very excited I know that."

Selene and her followers Isabella, Jasper and Emil made their way through the entrance to The Conservatory and into the crowd of wedding guests.
"Now to see if I am as good at this as I believe myself to be," Emil said as he picked up a tray of canapes and took it around the gathered wedding guests. He deliberately went past several members of the Mystic Council that he knew very well, and none of them recognized him. After passing a few more familiar faces, he ditched his now empty tray and found one with several glasses of Champagne on it. He made his way back to Selene and offered her a glass of the bubbly libation.
"They are none the wiser," he whispered to his queen and her companions.

The Witchblade on Maeve's arm started to get a bit antsy, but she was able to calm it a bit by looking at Erin. "You'd think the protesters would know better by now not to wander into situations like this one, but they are so blinded by their hate that they become delusional. And with the current presidential election cycle, they are only getting worse. I know your cousin Gabriel works for Lex Luthor, but I am not sure that man should be considered for any high elected office. Let him stick to running his conglomerate. The main party choices are bad enough! Third party nominees that are just as crazy are not needed!"
Maeve was seething by this point, so she reached over to give Erin a hug. "Sorry. Your Uncle Donal has been following the whole election thing a bit more closely that the rest of us, and he was chewing my ear off last night. Want to get something to drink before you head back to help Sean?"

Jack started to run around waving his hands in the air as his companions seemed to be getting more and more agitated. "Please! Everyone! Let's all calm down for a moment and look at things rationally."
"You, being rational?" Blackwell said with a loud laugh as Sparrow finally stopped flailing about like a fish on a hook. "Since when?"
"Since I want us all to have a wonderful time, all of us, all those around us. Everyone!" Jack said as he stopped and finally took a long breath. "Dear Lord, I am getting old!"
"You don't look a day over 200," Blackwell chuckled as he winked at Craig and Cicero. "Now, perhaps we need to find our seats soon?"
"At least he didn't say 400, since I'm not even close to 400!" Jack spouted as he looked at a flabbergasted Mrs. Brown. "What?"
"Mr. Dragotti, sir," Mrs.Brown said as she looked at Cicero, "I will gladly watch over Cicero, but please, do not put yourself in harms way today. There are plenty of folks with swords and guns and magical whatchamacallits all around this event. I saw Amazon warriors before! Let them all save the day this once."

Jessie made her way out to where the wedding was going to take place. Her Phoenix garb had been traded in for a red dress & leather boots. A phoenix shaped choker around her neck. She made it a point to never forget what she was and it showed in her choice in clothing.  As she started to walk toward the group she stopped for a moment as she felt something she hadn't felt in a long time.....She couldn't figure out who or where it was coming from but it was not a presence she felt welcoming to that was for certain. She brushed it off and kept walking as she looked around for her lover Ewan. Suddenly a voice came up from behind her. "Jessie you look stunning as always." The redhead turned to see Aleera queen of the vampires walking up to her in garb she didn't normally wear. It was a green Celtic inspired style dress with a hood and a small tiara was on her head. Aleera typically didn't dress in queen's garb but she felt that for this occasion it was important to make a statement. "Thank you Queen Aleera it's always a pleasure to see you. I am sure Sean will be happy you are here."  "Oh it wouldn't be right if I wasn't here." She said with a smile. "Would you like to go over together.....I'd like to catch up with you?" Aleera responded as Jessie nodded and the two women started to walk over toward the group. |

One of Captain Hook's eyes became bigger than the other after he viewed Jack Sparrow flailing. ''You look as though a ghost approached you.''
Captain Hook saw a woman he wasn't familiar with. He tilted his head at the sight of the red dress-clad woman. He viewed another unfamiliar woman with her. *I'll remove my hat and bow if the women approach me.*
Captain Hook faced Cicero. He began to frown. ''I'm a bit shocked about the other wedding guests not saying anything about a wyvern flying everywhere. Aren't they worried about the wyvern breathing fire? At least I assume wyverns breathe fire. Maybe.''
