001 | Anna Miton | [Audio only]

[afallenstar]

[ There's a scuffling, like someone's just tried to get up on their feet and failed, and then a loud, panicked voice rings out loudly. ]

What's going on, what is this?

[ More muffled sounds, then a loud tap against the communicator. ]

Why am I on a beach?!

Comments

[agentx13]

[She smiles wryly, whether she gets the joke or she's darkly amused by something else.]

I think there's a way to make that happen.

[She lifts her eyes to Anna's face again, her eyes sharp. She hadn't seriously considered that Anna might sabotage her attempts until Anna had said something, but she suspects - hopes - that Anna is telling the truth.] I appreciate it. And if I'm right, I think there's a way to help us all escape God's wrath.

[Wow. That had sounded as silly as it had felt.]

[afallenstar]

[ Anna doesn't get excited deliberately, because if she can't even get herself out how can Sharon expect to do it? She's interested though, certainly, and she doesn't even bother to fake nonchalance as she raises an eyebrow. ]

You really think you could do that, get us out of here and where we want to go?

[ Excuse her disbelief, Sharon, it's just that she's been imprisoned for a very long time. It's easy to be doubtful of finding another escape. Once, maybe, but certainly not a second time. ]

What's your plan, then? I can't even feel beyond the border of this town, let alone fly there. What makes you think there even is an escape?

[agentx13]

I'd rather not discuss the plan just yet. [Her eyes slide to the camera nearby. They're all fools if they think there aren't audio devices around as well.]

But if they have a way to bring us here from diffent places, then they've got to have a way to send us back to other places.

This... God of yours. The angels. Can they travel between universes?

[afallenstar]

[ Anna follows Sharon's gaze, and then she gets a small nod of understanding in return. It makes sense. She hasn't actually worried about the cameras too much so far, but that doesn't mean she's forgotten about them. ]

Universes...I'm not sure. Time, yes. We're limited to time lines, I believe, and even then you have to be quite powerful to manage it. Perhaps an archangel...

[ And she just so happens to have one of those, even if he may be in hiding for now. ]

[agentx13]

However they brought us here, it's got to be powerful.

So, what do you say? [Okay, that grin is definitely teasing.] Can you have a little faith in me?

[afallenstar]

Powerful enough to keep angels here. [ She adds rather helpfully, but despite her concerned frown Sharon's grin is somewhat infectious, and hey - Heaven jokes are always funny to Anna. ]

I've got to put it in something, right? Consider me sold.

[agentx13]

[Her grin relaxes, becoming somewhat more genuine, and she holds out her hand.]

Great. When the time comes, I'll call.

[afallenstar]

[ Quickly and without hesitation, she shakes Sharon's hand. It's early days yet, but if nothing else Anna's fairly sure that she can rely on her to be the one to get them out of here. It's too soon for trust, and definitely too soon for friends, but faith? Faith she can do. ]

Anything you need. Let's get these people home, huh?

[agentx13]

[Sharon nods.]

That's what I aim to do.

Thank you, Anna.
