<div class="floatleft">(http://i678.photobucket.com/albums/vv145/JanaelleWoW/Other/tumblr_m9yzwaztkm1rdkypqo1_400.jpg)</div><strong>Name</strong>: Michael Sandalphon<br/><strong>Location</strong>: Outside Jack's Apartment<br/><strong>Wearing</strong>: Same as in the picture, sunglasses on<br/><strong>Tagged</strong>: Billy, Chrissa, Madelyn, Jack, Elizabeth, Vivian, Tristyn<br/><br/><strong>"Elena,</strong>" Michael said fondly as he entered the apartment behind Jack.<strong>"I'll explain, so will Jack, just let everyone join us and let me rest a minute." </strong>He didn't comment about Dean. There would be no convincing Jack, and the man's choices were leaning towards violence. Better the others be prepared.<br/><br/>Continuing into the apartment, the blonde would pull his legs up and sit comfortably on a the recliner. What he<em>really</em>wanted to do was go into the kitchen, grab a cloth, soak it, microwave it, then toss it over his eyes and go to sleep. There would be time for that in a bit, however, so for now he just concentrated on getting rid of his headache and watching the pathways.<br/><br/>Once everyone was in the apartment, Michael clears his throat loudly and then stands again.<strong> "If you please,"</strong>he says loudly enough to be heard over the burgeoning introductions,<strong>"I'd like to have a word with everyone. I know some of you are uncertain and afraid and others have questions. There's not much time, but I'd like to do what I can before some of you have to leave, so if you could gather in here...it's a little cramped, but we'll fit."</strong><br/><br/>Moving from the arm chair, he waits for everyone to enter and his face turns to Jack.<strong>"Thank you for letting us stay here,"</strong>he says simply before he "looks" out over the group,<strong>"Introductions should go out first as I know some of you are feeling very alone amongst strangers. If everyone could give their name, then tell a little about themselves and ask any questions or express any worries. It might seem formal, but there's a chance that the people around you could be family, if you let them."</strong>Briefly, his face turns towards Elizabeth.<strong> "And misunderstanding is going to be one of our greatest obstacles. When we're done, I'll answer as many questions as I can, then give some options."</strong><br/><br/>The blonde took a deep breath.<strong> "I'll start, I suppose. Most of you know me, I'm Michael. I am blind, but I see things, pathways I call them. Choices that go forward and back in time and show me what was and what could be. It's a gift, but it put me in a coma when I was ten. That's why I'm not the best at explaining what I see, and I'm really not that good at socializing."</strong>He took another breath.<strong>"But I want more than anything to see us to a new home where we're safe and can bring hope back to the world."</strong>Smiling weakly, Michael looked to Jack.<strong>"Your home, why don't you start us off."</strong>
