Alpha raises her Metatron aura... but to her surprise and mounting horror, it doesn't protect her as well as it should have, and she goes staggering back several steps, gashes torn into her Barrier Jacket.
Is she... right? Am I...
No! I'm just trying to promote a better way! And I can argue with myself about this later, I don't intend to let this psychotic idiot kill me! I can't let my way die! I can't inflict that on my Sister! People need me! You need me, Metatron!
The Metatron flares up around her, somewhat returned to her service now... and then she notices Gamma's gone.

What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets, but enough talk have at you!"...Uh..."
He whips out his phone again.
"No..bars...."
He runs into a house.
...
...
...
He runs back out.
"That defeats the purpose of guns entirely. They're meant to kill people."
"Are you alright, Alpha?" Wanda asks Alpha, healing any wounds the Metatron user may have received in the scuffle with her magic. "I'm so sorry you had to learn firsthand just how monstrous Gamma really is."
Pietro simply remains quiet as he watches Alpha and his sister conversing.
@Micool:Does this mean that Omega's gonna go after Gamma now?

"Yeah and if I want to kill people I won't use by non lethal weapons if I want you dead then I use hell bullets.
What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets, but enough talk have at you!"So, that was Gamma." He says to Wanda and Pietro, having watched the conversation from a house. "She really is crazy, isn't she?"
"...and those are?"
"Bullets covered in hell fire."
What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets, but enough talk have at you!"Uh..."
He runs into a building.
...
...
...
He comes back out with Thursday.
"And, how do those work?"
"You get hit and you burn and go bye-bye."
What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets, but enough talk have at you!...and all the built-up Metatron in her lashes out at her.
The voice is wordless, just a sense of emotions, of burning fury and superiority. Alpha gives it the words herself.
And she realizes that, in the same instant she realizes - there are no words for its threat, because there is no threat. Its threats are empty. It created her because it needed her. Needed her to survive.
Are the scientists... right? Is Metatron just a lifeform that just wants to grow and live? Is its truth... a lie?
The Metatron in her makes her flinch away from such thoughts, but for perhaps the first time... she's not listening. She looks back at Wanda with an empty gaze, lost in thoughts.

"We can handle what is true, for we are already living it.""...so, fire."
(Suddenly pops in) Alpha, not Gamma. (Pops and disappears)
Creator of the Avatar Arena and its Discord server."Yes but only holy water can dose it.
What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets, but enough talk have at you!Temporary meeting, hopefully I'll have more time tomorrow. For both Metatron-related things and other things.
Claire appears and walks around a street corner to see Alpha (and anyone else near her). Curious, she gets closer, then looks happier when she senses the Metatron inside her (and is also completely unknowing of whatever just transpired.
"Hey!" She calls.

The avatar with a lot of character photos is only for inclusion purposes; every character in it will not be used at once.Maybe. I'm still kinda thinking about how to deal with the aftermath of this, really.
Alpha looks over at her, her gaze clearly not entirely there.
"Hey," she says, tonelessly, mechanically.

"We can handle what is true, for we are already living it.""Or smothering, I suppose?"
She sits down cross-legged, prompting Zane to do the same.
That's fine if you don't want it to happen right now.
Claire stops in front of her, her happy look turning to one of confusion.
"What happened?" She asks Alpha.

What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets, but enough talk have at you!"If someone's soul is being burned, they're going to try anything to get it off. Including smothering. And if you lack a soul?"

"Alpha, are you alright?" He walks closer to her.
"A fight." she says tonelessly.
"We can handle what is true, for we are already living it.""Are you alright, Alpha? You seem... traumatized," Wanda says to Alpha, laying a hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah, Gamma's pretty nuts, to say the least," Pietro says to Mikhael.

He's standing next to her, and starts reading her thoughts to get a better sense of what's going on.

"..."
He whips out the phone.
"Hey, Thursday? What do guns usually do?"
...
"Uh huh."
He smiles.
"OK, thanks! See you later."
He then turns over to YOLO.
"Wounds kill people."
