"Well, I... suppose we can either head over to Canada where we could stay either at my parents' home or my sister's... or we contact your mother and convince her of the truth, to ask to stay there... or I could go all major ghost and make us a temporary house", she suggested.

"Can you even transport us that far?" He asked as he shivered.

"Well, yes. I can go around the planet in about 25 'jumps', returning about where I started at the end... you know, when I sort of flicker and teleport? So getting from here to Canada would only take us a few. It's not that hard, but it's a bit disorienting to others than me", she admitted.

"Okay... Lets go back to your place." He said.

"My parent's, actually", she said with a smile. "It's in a very forest-like area on top of a mountain, with few neighbors who are at least 100' away from one another, so we wont attract any attention", she said with a smile. "Also, my parents got used to me so they won't freak out about you, don't worry. My dad has a... sometimes annoying sense of humor so please don't mind him too much."
She stopped being physically manifested so she could teleport them both, then 'touched his arm.
"Let's go." --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4 stones (Ef.) into Ghost Powers (Teleportation) to jump repeatedly and teleport to my parents home.
(OOC: Want me to roleplay them? XD)

(Probably for the best.)
"Okay..." He said unsure about meeting them, but unwilling to argue with you. As you arrive in the middle of their living room.

(OOC: Actually, if I'm being logical, I'll only have to roleplay one of them, because...)

The duo appeared in the middle of a nice, medium-sized house mostly made of wood, with a large comfy couch, a large TV, a kitchen and dining room connected to the living room, with lots and lots of rooster-shaped trinkets, baubles and ornaments.
"Mom loves roosters", Manah explained... as a poodle who was resting on the couch a moment ago stood up and began barking at them. "...Shut up, Maya."
Soon enough, a balding, fairly athletic man in his early fifties with graying black hair and a kind (but surprised) demeanor showed up from the basement.
"...Oh... hey. I thought I heard someone." He seemed... quite impressed by the size of the man before him. "...Whoa. Jess didn't tell me she had a boyfriend this tall."
"...DAD, geez!"

"Hello Sir. I'm Travis Wilder." He said extending his hand. "I'm sorry to barge in on you guys, but well... Manah can explain things better than I can." He said.

(OOC: By the way, my dad isn't actually that good at English, but I didn't feel like going 'Jessie translates this' and 'Jessie translates that'. lol.)
"Just call me Yvan. 'Sir' is for my father", he said with a smile, shaking his hand.
"I'm sorry to barge in on you guys, but well... Manah can explain things better than I can."
The man raised an eyebrow.
"...What's the matter, are you two in trouble?"
"Maybe. We're not sure. Travis is one of my friends, online, on the board I told you like thousands of times over. And he had vanished for several months. He doesn't know what happened, so we're trying to figure it out. Long story short", the girl said. Seemed like she didn't want to tell him too much if she could avoid it. "Where's mom?"
"At work. She finishes at 19h30."
"Okay... mind if we spend the day, and possibly night here?"
He nodded. "Okay... just, uh... take care, alright? If you need help with something, just call."
"Right. We'll be talking on the patio in the back if you need us", she said, leading Travis outside on the patio outside next to a whirlpool bath, in the backyard surrounded by trees all over the place. She closed the patio door behind them, after making sure the windows were closed and he couldn't hear them.
"...Sorry. I'd rather not tell him too much just yet, until we know more about who did this to you", she explained. "I'm a bit worried, to be honest. I mean... whoever did this to you had access to a lot of resources. I wonder who might actually be behind this", she wondered. "Might as well start with our best clue so far... you, and this new equipment and body alterations of yours."

"Okay." He said unwrapping the black foxtail from his waist as he proceeded to pull out and lay down weapon after weapon.

"Holy cow... you actually have... a tail?" she let out, surprised. "Hmm."
She observed the weapons.
"I wonder if we can learn something from the weapons themselves... maybe there's something written donw on them, or a symbol or something..." she said, examining them. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 into Intelligence to look for any clue on the weapons.

"You just noticed it?" He asked resting it by you as you examined each piece of hardware... many of them had a name on them... Darktower Inc, and designated with an X-followed by a number.
"I've seen this marking before. Most American weapons are designated with an X when they are in the experimental prototype stage." He said.

"I-I thought it was some sort of piece of clothing or something", she said, smiling.
"I've seen this marking before. Most American weapons are designated with an X when they are in the experimental prototype stage."
She sighed.
"Fantastic. So... there's a high chance the American authorities are actually behind all of this? ...Who can we trust, then?" she grumbled. "...Darktower Inc. Ever heard of it?"

"Only in the stories I wrote in my head. They were an expy of Blackwater with a mix of supernatural and sci-fi thrown in." He said. "You think it's possible that something is making our games.. real?" He asked as his tail stroked her ankle.

"Hopefully not all of them, 'cause that would be a mighty mess in reality. I don't know, maybe...maybe it's just some sort of company we don't know about, right? I mean... our games becoming reality? How? ...And why?" she asked, a bit troubled by the idea.
