and another one into the fray

<< a cold wind seemed to blow out of no where but was localized to where alexis, alison and helena were standing...as Morgan stepped into view. dwarfing Alexis and Helena with her stature, Morgan immediately looked down Helena>>

<<in an icy voice>>:what is going on here? why are you two talking to this woman when there are photo ops to be had? Alison...P.Diddy is asking for you by the way. I think he's got the hots for ya!

<< Morgan winked at Alison...but soon saw the seriousness on the seer's face...as well as Alexis'. Something was obviously wrong...and Morgan's smile faded..as she fixed her icy violet eyes on Helena>>

allright...what's going on..who is this woman?
 
well Morgan...the Crypt Keeper decided to make itself look a little less like animated road kill and more like a human being so it put on a wig and this Joann Fabric's special bargain basement dress and came to the gala. I happened to be asking Alexis a question....and it decided to address me as if it had any rudimentary sense of intelligence.

you know MysTech really should keep an eye on its creatures...this one really got far away from its incubation tube.

::Alison said this with such a smug, mocking tone...and she smirked at Morgan as the two women began to giggle at the older woman::

Helena Quatermaine......Alexis' aunt ...and by the look of her..i'd say she was the OLDER sibling of Alan's.

:: standing there were her arms folded...Guardian was hoping Helena would be stupid and try something...ANYTHING::

:: Alexis watched Alison and Helena go back and forth....Normally she would find anyone who defied Alison to be funny. But in this case, the blonde was not amused. Helena was here for a reason. And all this bickering and one-upping each other wasn't allowing Alexis to get any closer to why Helena had "graced" them with her presents. ::

:: She didn't want to be in the same room as her anymore. But before Helena could say another word, Morgan had come over. Very chipper and happy until she realized the seriousness of the event. Sighing as she asked who Helena was...Alexis looked up at Morgan with a not so happy look on her face as Alison introduced the two woman. This night was just getting worse and worse. ::

"Helena, what the hell do you want. This is getting old."

:: Alexis snapped. ::
 
:: As everyone seemed to be entranced by the musical styles of Mimi herself and with Morgan and Alexis both exiting the stage, Cameron too excused himself after posing for a few pictures and finding Vivica at the Bar hobnobbing with some unknown Socialite. It wasn't long before he realized he was extremely close to Morgan, Alexis, Alison and some unknown woman and they all seemed to be getting into it. He leaned over to Vivica who by now was listening as well ::

"Look at them go at it like CATS!"

:: Vivica and Cameron watched in amazement as each of the women took pleasure in building up and breaking each other down all in the same sentence. Prophet wasn't sure if this woman was a business associate or an enemy of the Six or whatever, Cameron's inquisitive nature kicked in and it wasn't before long that he made his way over to the group and introduced himself ::

"Hello.. how is everyone enjoying themselves? Alexis, Morgan, you both did great!"

:: Turning to Helena ::

"I'm not sure we've met.. My name is Cameron King.. and you are?"

:: Quickly Cameron whispered mentally to Alexis ::

Friend or Foe?
 
Helena smirked seeing Morgan had arrived. Her resemblance to her mother was uncanny....Elvira after all did have a distinct look to her. Hearing Alison once again say the same insults about Helena as she did five minutes prior, she simply rolled her eyes and turned her attention to Alexis.

"I didn't come here tonight to bicker with dumb and dumber. I came to speak to you."

Turning to Alexis, she noticed a handsome man make his way up to the group. As he introduced himself, Helena lifted her chin a bit higher....Cameron King...

"Helena Quartermaine."
 
"Foe foe foe foe foe foe foe."

:: Alexis echoed in her head. Cameron undoubtably getting the hint that this was the infamous aunt that caused Alexis so much trouble and heartache in the past. Uncrossing her arms, Alexis raised her hand up to her temple, rubbing it. She was growing tired of this. ::

"Just say whatever you have to say and leave."
 
<<Laughing out loud at Helena when Alison made the crypt keeper and joann fabrics comments.... Morgan's eyes widened before a look of pure agitation washed over her face...as Helena retorted>>


<< her voice was icy...but more irritated>>: who does this mummified old bat think she is!? alexis...control your senile bag-of-potatos for an aunt or ill break her jaw and make SURE she can't say another word!

<< hearing cameron's voice...Morgan immediately whipped her head around and glared at him...it appeared she would attack him as well....but...>>

thank you. It was good to be able to pull at least ONE THING off without a problem.

<< immediately turning back to Helena>>

now then...about this dragon bitch...why is she here?
 
:: Cameron heard from the others that this was the infamous Helena Quartermaine aka Demoness Bitch from Hell who was bent on ruining Alexis' life. She was definitely a sneaky bitch from what he had heard and if she was here it was for one thing and one thing only. To cause havoc. Cameron retracted the hand he was about to extend when Alexis whispered back to him that she was in fact not a friend. His eyes immediately took a cold look at the woman. Right after, Morgan actually responded back to him. And her words weren't dripping with disdain and hate like they normally were. What was going on? Could her hatred for Helena Quartermaine actually outway her hatred for Cameron? No.. that was impossible. Whatever the cause for Morgan's lapse of consciousness, Cameron was grateful. It gave him some hope for the future of what the Six could be like if they were united. ::

"Dragon Bitch, eh? You've got quite the reputation here. I hope you don't mind that I will have to hate you now by association...."
 
Helena glared at Morgan. But her battle wasn't with her. Nor was it with Alison or this Cameron King character. It was with Alexis. And soon...everything would be revealed. As Morgan asked why she was here, a sadistic smile appeared on Helena's lips.

"You want to know why I’m here? I'll tell you why I’m here."

Turning to Alexis, Helena's glare could burn a whole right through the blonde.

"As you're parading around, celebrating this pathetic alliance with King Enterprises and Illustra Inc. You brother is laying in a morgue. AJ is dead, Alexis."
 
::Guardian gasped..as she looked up::

She attacked Karen too, Morgan...thats why Karen's not here....Helena and her men...tried to KILL Karen only hours ago!

::Guardian glared at Helena...raising a hand...ready to unleash some sort of attack...but she knew this wasnt her fight..not yet anyway. Alexis was the one who was just slapped with a shocking, painfull revelation.::

:: Alexis went pale. The air in her lungs had left her. A soft gasp could be heard....No. No it couldn't be true. Her eyes began to glaze over with tears....this wasn't right. ::

"...Don....Don't you say that. Don't you ever say that..."

:: Her voice soft and shakey. How could Helena come here and say something as horrible as AJ being dead just to ruin tonight?! The sadistic bitch! ::

"I spoke with AJ last night!.."
 
<< gasping as she put her hand over her mouth>>

Alison....my mother..is she .....how could i not have known!!! I have to GO!

<< Morgan abruptly teleports..the sound of thunder and chimes fills the air as the stepping disc whisks her away in the blink of an eye>>

<< moments pass and as Alexis reacts to Helena's shocking news.....Morgan returns via disc to the same spot she was before...after checking in on her mother and learning just what happend..and who Helena was...her eyes glowing and she is bearing her teeth with rage>>


<< glaring at Helena...as thunder rumbles in the air>>

HOW DARE YOU ATTACK MY MOTHER!! I AM GOING ...TO KILL YOU!!

<<Morgan lunges for the woman.....>>
 
Gala Event, Bar

Adrian held his ground, not even flinching at her frosty gaze. He infact raised an eyebrow as she came closer. A fearless woman, especially considering the faintly "acidic" particles around Adrian that had begun to clash with Alison's frosty aura. Humble beginnings, he'd wonder bemusedly, I had two superstars for parents.

"I don't pretend, Guardian," he finished as she had turned her back. I fucking do it, he thought acidly. Adrian watched Guardian walk away, and put a hand to his head once she was out of sight. This night had proven to be more monumentous than he had anticipated. Deep breath. Good. You could handle this.

She was pretty strong.

Yeah.

She should probably be avoided.

Yeah.

Adrian sighed, stepping away from the area to look around at the festivities. It appeared that the speeches had been given, and the crowd accordingly impressed, as an excited after-buzz hovered around the gathered individuals. He glanced towards Alexis, and saw her with Cameron, Morgan and Guardian. No, the timing, it simply wouldn't do.

He turned, walking to the bar, allowing a particularly large amount of pheromones to hover around him and utterly intoxicate the typical array of star-studded celebrities. He piqued his ears to the classical music and rolled his eyes. This whole "elegant" event simply wasn't cutting it for him.

It's time to "Hartify" The Parthenon. And as the night's hosts were accordingly wrapped up in an unrelated situation, Adrian seized his opportunity. "Hi there," he announced cheerfully as he sat down next to Jessica Simpson. Hey, wasn't she married? Oh yeah. And he grinned as he spotted Nick Lachey next to her, who grinned back.

Amateurs.

A few minutes later, what had started out as a classy, clean cut celebration of the trium partners, was now rapidly turning into a wild, dirty party. The classical music had ended abruptly; in its place, "Lapdance" by N.E.R.D. A crowd had gathered near the bar where something awe-inspiring was taking place.

Dirty Dog
I'm, I'm a dirty dog
I'm a dirty dog
I'm, I'm a dirty dog
Dirty Dog
I'm a dirty dog
Dirty Dog


Adrian was laid out on top of the bar, his decency long gone. The fashionable black suit was torn open, with the suspicious marks of nails. Pink nails. Jessica's nails. And his magnificiently muscled, tanned torso was exposed. A blond head, Jessica's head, was bobbing as she licked off the cream, utterly entranced by the deliciously sculpted muscles and the handsome face of Adrian, who had an impish grin.

Oh yeah, and he was sucking the mouth off of Nick Lachey, Jessica's husband. And, mm, that lower lip, God.

I'm an outlaw
Quick on the draw
Somethin' you never seen before
And I dare a mother fucker to come in my face
I got somethin' chrome
And I got it from home
And it ain't a microphone
And I dare a mother fucker to come in my face


Adrian groaned. Nick laughed. Jessica giggled. "Ah ain't through with you yet, sweetie," she cooed with that Southern accent. Everyone around them was entranced. This was a testament to Adrian's abilities, as more and more individuals were drawn to the bar, with happy, complacent grins on their faces. Cat calls ensued. People joined in. Celebrities such as Hallie Barry lost all inhibitions and started up an impromptu Coyote Ugly dance routine.

Oh yes, the night was young.

:: Cameron watched as everything was revealed. Helena had attacked and tried to kill Karen? How did they even know each other? This was definitely the wrong move for Helena. Morgan had just lost her sister and now this woman was trying to off her Mother? He knew it was coming as she teleported away and then back as she lunged for Helena in front of everyone. This would get so much media attention it wasn't funny. Using his telepathic powers, he allowed the Six a temporary mental invisibility, allowing nobody to see them or know that they were there. This would cover all of their asses. Morgan was going to kill Helena if nobody stopped her. Nobody wanted Inferno Version 2.0. He knew that if it was him who tried to stop her, she would just as well murder him off along WITH Helena. He looked to Alison ::

"Alison! Stop her! She will KILL Helena!"
 
:: Guardian lifted her hand...as she turned and spread her arms out...a loud bell tolled in the air as everyone just STOPPED in time...no music...no sound...except for those involved in this rapidly declining situation...it would help to keep this from the eyes and minds of the unsuspecting guests::


::just as morgan appeared and moved to attack helena...Cameron yelled for Alison to stop her..and indeed she had to do something. it wasnt the right time for Morgan to assault Helena..NOT YET. Alexis was the one who was the most damaged by tonights events...but Morgan was obviously now affect as well::

:: immediately getting in Morgan's path..Alison put her hands out in a stop motion...to appeal to Morgan::

MORGAN!! stop yourself! remember what ororo said about CONTROL! ...remember what I can do [a seer]....TRUST ME....just HOLD for a moment longer!!

:: she looked at her dear friend ...her eyes conveyed that there was a REASON for this::
 
The pain in Alexis' eyes was apparent....even with her doubts, she knew the truth. She knew AJ was dead. Shifting her eyes from Alexis to Morgan, who had just returned from seeing Karen, Helena didn't flinch as she lunged forward. Simply looking back to Alexis, she shook her head at her obvious doubt that AJ was dead.

"AJ's dead, Alexis....it was pretty apparent when he was laying in his bed and you could see the sheets through his chest."

Watching Alexis cringe, her facial expression went from denial to completely anguish.

"You have no right to grieve AJ."
 
:: Looking up at Helena with a look of horror on her face, how dare she say she couldn't frieve AJ! ::

"AJ was my brother!"

:: The tears continued to glaze over Alexis' now dull blue eyes...she was in shock more then anything. Otherwise she would of completely broken down by now. ::
 
Bar, Gala Event

Much like how a snow ball gained strength, so too did the "bar scene." Infact, the entire establishment was rapidly changing into a nightclub scene, with countless men throwing off their suit coats and joining it. Women, who would be particularly scandalized by this behavior, abruptly ripped off dresses that were too "long" (in other words, dresses 5 inches above the knee), and enthusiastically participated in the writhing of bodies to the music.

Hallie Barry was shaking her ass with Mariah Carey, who had briefly taken a break only to be overcome with an absolute certainty that she had to abandon all coherent thought and get to that damn bar.

Lindsay Lohan was sucking vodka off of Tom Cruise's stomach.

Hilary Duff was behind one of those large columns, wondering vaguely if her babies with Justin Timberlake would look pretty, as he roughly kissed her on the mouth.

And so it ensued, with Adrian in the middle of all of this chaos. Nick and Jessica had begun to fight over him. "Honey, ya have ta share," Jessica whined, pouting. "Like you were sharing Seann William Scott on Dukes of Hazard," Nick retorted, pushing her out of the way to suck on one of Adrian's nipples. Adrian tossed his head back, eyes closed, grinning devilishly. Fuck yes, anything, anything, to take his mind off of the frustration of tonight's events.

And then time stopped, with Nick's sensuous mouth firmly worshipping Adrian's body.

Now Helena was heated...

"No he wasn't Alexis. Because you are not a Quartermaine ALEXIS. You will never BE a Quartermaine ALEXIS!"

Her voice began to escalate as her facial express emitted pure hatred towards her niece.

"You are a leech! A parasite! You latch onto people and hold onto them for dear life until they grow sick of you and toss you away like the piece of trash you are! You can't amount to anything! You can't even hold onto anything! Not a family, not your sobriety, much less a MAN! You wasted Kevin's time! You let Luke slip away, and you practically drove Jax Cortlandt out of Port Charles! You glommed onto my family like it was your own....but thank GOD you're never going to be a Quartermaine..."

As Helena continued to thrash into Alexis, it was visible how truly sadistic Helena.

"Of course, we let you stick around because you're pathetic. Makes us feel a little better about ourselves. Like taking in a stray cat. But make no mistake about it, Alexis. You mean NOTHING to the Quartermaine's. NOTHING! And as much as my dear deluted family may be, they know you are responsible for AJ's loss of life..."

Tears began to visibly fall from Alexis' pain stricken face as Helena came closer to her.

"And in your heart of hearts....you know it too."

Stepping back, Helena refused to remove her eye contact from Alexis. She was savoring every single solitary moment of this. Extending her hand out to a waiter who was frozen near by, she grabbed a glass of Vodka...Alexis' favorite drink.

"I expect you to finish what you were supposed to weeks ago, before you kill another one of us...."

Pausing, the silence in the room was eerie...alarming.

"AJ's funeral's Friday."

With that, Helena took a sip of the Vodka and smiled. Pushing the glass into Alexis' hand, she was through with her.

"Cheers."

Turning, Helena proceeded to walk away from the group and head to The Parthenon doorway.
 
<< Morgan and Alison stood back to back..with their arms folded...they both looked so purely pissed and disgusted at Helena....as she tore into Alexis in a manner so cruel and vicious..it almost made made Morgan's tyrade against Cameron on the west coast seem like a mickey mouse special monologue...Helena certainly had a streak of contempt and viciousness that was only rivaled by Morgan or Alison ...or better yet KAREN, who was noticeably absent tonight...and now they knew why. and now Alexis had just been devastated....Helena poured salt on this deep emotional wound...and Morgan followed Helena with her icy voilet eyes as she toasted herself and began to make her way toward the exit of the parthenon.>>

<< thunder rumbled as morgan went after her...a quick pace..and caught up with her..grabbing her by her arm and yanking her back so hard she almost tore helena's shoulder out of socket>>

Not so fast ...<< her voice was so icy and her grip was like a vise as she was crushing Helena's wrist..holding her there>>

before you go.........allow me to share one last thing with you. its something that i think someone like yourself would understand quite well in a situation like this.

<< morgan looked away for a moment..before turning around...and SOCKING Helena in her MOUTH with her fist, which was surrounded by a halo of eldritch energy.....the punch was so hard..and so forcefulll..there was a a crack heard ..a crack of bone..as Helena was launched backward like a foot ball being punted and sent CRASHING THROUGH THE GLASS of the doors and windows leading out to the outside of the parthenon...finally she would land in the street...right in the path of an oncoming BUS>>


Bitch.


<< Morgan stood there...watching...and waiting>>
