Liam was glad that she decided to do what he said and left. He wasn't glad however that he couldn't move. He waited until he couldn't hear her anymore and then began to focus on getting his body to move. He kept this up for some time, managing to move his arms down by his side and get his body shifted into a more relaxed position, before a thought came to his mind. She had mentioned that she was going to give him an hour to get back home, but it had taken him more time then that to get to the spot he was at now. That thought annoyed him enough that he decided to do something in retaliation. He began to focus on getting his body to move once more in order to pull his plan off.
Liam finally got his muscles working again after about 45 minutes of his hour had past. He started walking back towards his house and ended up stopping a small hole in the wall restaurant. He pulled out his phone and made a quick call. He had called Sarah and invited her to eat with him, and also to pay since he had left his wallet at home. Sarah had shown up and was being Sarah. She seemed to already know about his condition, which might have been why she was more aggressive then usual. He knew he was being a little devious to Devika, but at the moment he didn't care. She might have won the battle, but she had yet to win the war and as his father always said, he who wins the war makes the rules.

Devika finished doing what she was doing around the house when an hour passed she grabed a blanket a container to kept the food warm in and put the rest in the firge she also put some camping supplies in her backpack got Hara out of his cage so he could hang in her coat pocket.
Devika walked to the park right past the restraunt to the spot that Liam was out she had made sure that she did not miss him it was hard to miss a guy that big she folded her arms what was she going to do with this man he was going to get himself killed.
Right then Hara poked his head out of her pocket she smiled at him removed the two rubber bands that where holding his wings together “What are we going to do with Mr. Lancaster Hara guess we have to find him can you do that for me”
The small dragon flew up in the air and fallowed the trail Hara was wonderful at finding people he unlike a snake had a good sense of smell playing hid in go sneak happened to be his favorite game along with catch the mouse.
It didn’t take long for Hara to catch his sent and start heading that way but because of all the people He had to go back into her pocket and just poke his head and point with her head where she needed to go once they got to the restraint Devika saw him in the window and smirked making sure that she wasn’t seen she sliped into the little restaurant still unseen by Liam and the girl he was with she walked over to the table they where out gave a small bow to Liam
“Namaste Mr. Lancaster glad to see you are moving again”

Liam was sitting there talking with Sarah and wondering when Devika was going to find him a few minutes after an hour had past. He wasn't sure if she could find him, but it wasn't like he had really gone out of his way to hide other then just come into this restaurant which was right along the path back home. Sarah seemed to really be enjoying herself and was acting like this was a date more then she normally would. He heard someone finally walk over to the table and he knew who it was before he saw her or she had even greeted him. Devika had finally found him and she was carrying some food and her little snake thing. He was about to reply to her, but before he could even make an attempt at saying something to her, Sarah made a light humph sound.
" So you traded in that little girl for an older one? Why would you go ahead and do something like that Liam? Going for an older one is fine and all, but you really shouldn't be taking in strays so much." Sarah said in a tone that was more then just slightly offensive. " Really it is so unsightly. Look, she even brought some food with her. Did you not give her some spending money? Was she a bad girl? I bet you had such a tough time deciding to bring this one home with you. Oh, and you might want to avoid having any kind of bedroom fun with this one. She just looks like the kind of girl who would give even you something because she bent over for so many guys so willingly. Now then girly, why don't you scamper off and leave us be?"
Liam could believe what he had heard just now. He had never seen Sarah act like this or say something this horrible to someone else before. He was too stunned to say anything to her as he sat just looking at her.

Devika smile disappeared when the woman spoke to her, Devika looked at her she wanted to say so many things to this woman but she bit her touge and just said them all in her head she didn’t want to offend this woman in a matter that offend Liam.
Devika looked down at the container of soup and just set it in front of Liam “I guess I’ll be on my way then I hope you enjoy it Mr. Lancaster” she tried to say in a cheerful vosice she then turned and left the two to enjoy there meal she was sure the woman would she was also pretty sure that the food she made for him would be thrown in the trash.
Instead of going back to Liam place Devika went to the park she found a quite spot away from everyone over by a little pond Hara flew out of her pocket and was flying around and Devika whould pick up a rock and throw it in.
“Hara can you believe that woman she believes I’d bend over and…let anyone take me” She threw a rock in to the pond “I’ve only kissed one guy and he dead now the only reason I’m doing any of this is because I want to help” She started muttering in Hindi everything she wanted to say to that woman in there witch if anyone translated they be surprised about the nasty little tongue that she had Hara nuzzled into her face his wings flapping in the air knowing she was upset. Devika smiled at him “No its o.k Hara well get her back you know me she may of won the battle but the war is not over tell the fat lady sings my name in glory”

Liam couldn't believe what Sarah had just said to Devika. He didn't know much about Indian culture, but he did know that traditional people from Indian looked down upon those kinds of relations outside of marriage. He was about to say something to Sarah about it when Devika put the soup infront of him and tried to sound cheerful, and failed at it. She took off somewhere after that and he just looked at Sarah.
Liam had had a few words with her before the both of them had left the restaurant and went looking for her. He had the soup with him and he knew she wouldn't have gone back to his place. He figured that the best place for her to be was the park he had taken her to earlier and went looking around. It hadn't taken him long to find her and she had said something in her naitive language that he couldn't understand. He just went over to her and set the soup down beside her.
" Here, if we are going to eat then we need to eat together." Liam said to her. " Also, Sarah here has something she would like to say to you."
" What? Why do I have to apologize to this wh-" Sarah started to say before the look she got from Liam made her change her mind. " I'm, I'm sorry for what I said to you. I was out of line and I didn't mean any of it at all."
Liam watched as Sarah turned and left after finishing talking not wanting to see Devika's face or even be near her. He waited until she was gone before he looked at Devika.
" I'm sorry about that. She normally isn't like that and I'm shocked she said something like that." Liam said to her. " Also, I should probably tell you a bit about myself if we are going to be living together. That is, if you want to know about me."

Devika kept throwing rocking in the river every once in awile Hara would go and case after them but she froze when she herd foot steps and Liam speak Devika half lessoned to Sarah apologize knowing very well that she didn’t mean it and she did catch that she was going to call her a whore so Devika just stared at the pond why Hara hissed at the woman a small smirk on Devika face when he did, she said good boy Arabic to him but didn’t move form her spot
When Liam apologized for her Devika looked up at him “It understandable you shouldn’t have to say sorry for your friend I should be horned that she would even talk to me with how she belittles me so”
Devika in her head was coming up with more insults that she really wanted to get out about the woman most of them about her being an American whore and her parents must of dropped her as a baby.
“If you wish for me to have the honor of knowing you then I am more than willing to know more about you” Devika turned her head and watched Hara fly around in circles around Devika from what he viewed as protecting her he didn’t like Liam form his stand point Liam had “kidnaped” her, and also let someone hurt his master Devika feeling all in just a few hour period and he was not going to let anything else happen to her. Devika just then seemed to notice that Hara was flying around and he didn’t have his wings back to look like a snake.
“HARA!”
The little thing flew to the ground and folded his wings looking just like a normal black snake he still glared at Liam not trusting the man Devika didn’t know what to say how was she going to explain the flying snake
“sorry….he an rare…..snake form….India…..he knows better then to….fly around….a…bird might…catch him…”
Devika went threw her head what she just said o.k that was not going to work that sounded dumb to even her hey at lest she could play the dumb uneducated servant without trying

Liam had finally noticed the flying snake. He didn't see it as a threat, so he had tuned out the fact that it was flying earlier. He thought it was kind of neat that it could fly though now as he watched it. Devika didn't seem to like the idea that it was actually flying though, which might be a good or a bad thing. He was sure though from the way she was acting that Halfort had 'forgotten' to tell her about his mutation or that he even had one. He looked at Devika and smiled.
" You don't have to try and hide your snake's neat trick. I figure either he or you are a mutant, in which case is something we share in common." Liam said to her in a serious, yet friendly voice. " I'm a mutant, and one who the nature of my mutation effected my life greatly. I'm not like other mutants, I'm not even like anything alive on this planet anymore. I'm a silicon based life form. Thanks to that I can't get sick from anything on this planet. No poison or toxic will effect me no matter how much of it is in me. I can't even get the kind of disease Sarah was talking about earlier. I'm also far more resistant to hotter and colder temperatures then most others. I can survive longer without breathing or my heart pumping. My body is naturally stronger and more durable then then even most mutants with a mutation that augments them. To top all of that off, I can surround my body is this strange living metal that is one of the hardest substances in the world, which only diamonds and adamantium are one of the ones harder then it. Oh, and it is hard for even the most powerful telepath to get in my head since anything they get is like some kind of strange coded message. All of those great things, and yet I have my own weaknesses. I can't withstand electricity very well, I'm very conductive to it. That ironically is why my body is not working right at the moment, got hit by an emp blast. I also can't have children. I'm not sterile, or atleast I don't think I am, just because my body itself is completely different then other mutants, my genes and everyone else's can't mix."
Liam grew quiet for a time as he thought about everything he had told her. His mutation had saved him time and time again from who knows what kind of harms, but he was paying a high price for it. He still wasn't sure what to think about his own body, even after living with it for 26 years of his life.
" I guess it is like my mum use to say before she past away, ' life is full of amazing things for us all to get our hands on, but we will always have to give something we already have up to get something new'. She was right too. I've seen it happened countless times throughout my life." Liam said as if talking to himself now. " I wonder what mum would say if she knew everything I've done in my life?"

Devika raised her brow trying to understand the word silicon she hurd the word before thankfully she had token a physics class and she remembered that it was one of the elements ( Si ). She then tuned in about ½ threw his monologue she was able to understand most of what he was saying and just nodding everyone in awhile when he said how he got hurt she looked at him EMP? That wasn’t possible the only way that she knew how to make an EMP with today tecnogry was to set a nuke off above the sight so where was he hanging around nukes and sriving and then just saying that it was nothing and he didn’t need anyone to take care of him. She did fround when he said that he chouldn’t have children. That was sad for most of Devika life she just wished that she had a sibling someone to play with and her parents to care less about her going to the best schools and what not but the idea to never had a kid, Devika knew that she wanted kids she wanted lots of them at lest three of her own so they could play and have fun all the time with eachother she also wanted a big yard to but Devika pushed the tought to the side and smiled at Liam last statement she figured she try to lighten the mood a little.
“she say…that you shouldn’t let your soup get cold and to eat already you may be different but your still her little boy” Devika said with a smile and reached and handed him the container
She guessed that he wanted to know more about her now that he just talked about him self for a wile but she wasn’t going to tell he asked her to Devika gave a nood to her head saying that Hara could fly around if he wanted and he gladly did.
“Yea….life can always be full of amazing thing expully if you are a mutant” Devika drew her legs close to her and rested her head on her knees looking out at the water it was going to take more then him just talking about him self to have Devika open up more to him and be anymore that what she believed Mr. Halfort wanted her to be to him.
Hara golden eyes watched the two as he flew around he didn’t trust Liam and Hara was very quick to judge when it came to people mostly because he only knew five or so people and he knew that only type of things that hurt Devika where, people it never was the monsters or anything it always was the people.

Liam noticed how Devika's attention was only there for a part of what he had to say to her about himself and he guessed she didn't understand everything he had to say. He was fine with that, since who knows what kinds of problems she would be if she knew everything. He guessed she wouldn't let him near anything that could zap him in the house if she did. He listened to what she had to say and just looked at the soup. He didn't want to insult her by not trying it, but he wasn't hungry for anything and hadn't been since he was hurt. He had experienced something like this before, so it looked like he was going to have to go into his basement when he got home. He had to figure out what to do until then though. He just looked at Devika and smiled.
" I'm sorry, I would try it and I'm sure it tastes great, but I don't think my stomach could even handle a sip of your soup right now." Liam said to her in an apoligetic way. " I didn't eat anything at that restaurant either just so you know."
Liam hadn't eaten anything while he was with Sarah. His stomach would reject everything right now in it's current state. He could still drink though, but not any broth or the likes.

“Then should we go home Mr. Lancaster I can call I cab for you if you don’t wish to walk the hole way back home” she then smirked looking at the Night sky seeing it was getting dark enough to fly with out any worries “Or we can get home by my favorite way of travel snce you are open about your powers there should be nothing wrong with me sharing mine with you and I am always at Mr. Lancaster service” She said ready to do what he wanted.
She still viewed her self as his maid as sorts but she could tell that she wasn’t going to make her do everything but there was going to be things she do weather he wanted her to or not cleaning, doing laundry, and cooking where small and smilple tast she could do and it was at lest doing her part and maybe she be able to get some real treatment but she did need to find out what he was able to eat or not eat so she could make it for him.
“And Mr. Lancaster would a light green tea be o.k for your tummy or do you need just water we can’t have you not eating or drinking for ever”

Liam listened to what Devika had to say to him and wondered what method she was talking about of getting back home. He was curious as to what it was, but he also knew that it was better for him to just walk or ride in a taxi with the way things were with his body right now. Besides, he figured that he was too heavy for her method anyways. People always seemed to think he weighted less then he does, which he already looks like he weights a lot. He figured it was for the best if they took a cab back. He slowly stood up and looked at Devika.
" It's better if we take a cab for now. I might lock up again and that won't be good if we aren't in a vehicle or walking." Liam said to her in a friendly way. " Green tea will be fine. It will just need to be watered down, a lot."
Liam helped Devika get up, even though she obviously didn't need it, and began heading back to the street. He managed to wave down a cab and got in after Devika did. He didn't talk on the way back, because he was thinking about what he needed to get out of the basement. Once they arrived, he helped Devika out of the cab, paid the man for the ride, and went inside. He didn't stop to sit on the couch though once he got in. Instead, he kept going until he got to the basement door and opened it. He stood there for a moment before he turned his head to look toward the main part of the house.
" Ms. Veni, mind helping me with something for a moment?" Liam called out in a voice loud enough he was sure that she could hear him.

Devika let him help her up and get the cab now her way she was sure wouldn’t be any problem with his locked up knees but she figured she may talk him into it latter. Hara had stuffed him self back into her pocket for the ride back home well he was more hiding in her jacket pocket she couldn’t blame him she didn’t like being in cars to much or planes but she put up with them.
Once they where inside Devika sliped off her shoes again and took off her jacket Haru flew out of the pocket and started flying threw the house checking out each room and every little hiding hole he could find Devika figured it be at lest a week until he was done finding places to hide and seeing if there where any mice or rat holes for hunting.
Devika started a pot of water and started pulling out what she needed for the tea when Liam called for her she made her way to him and slightly bowed “Yes Mr. Lancaster what my I help you with” There was a smile on her face when she said it and she did seem like she was more then willing to help with anything he ask from her.

Liam waited for Devika to get to him before he just motioned for her to follow him down into the basement. He made sure to hit the light switch on the wall at the top of the stairs for her so she wouldn't fall. He personally didn't care if he fell or not seeing as it wouldn't hurt him any, and he had fallen down them a few times already.
The basement was more of another floor of the house below ground then a normal basement. There were several full sized rooms that made it up. Each room was full of one thing or another. One was full of different kinds of ammos, a workbench designed to refill empty ammo cartridges, and a even different kinds of ammo containers. Another room was full of different types of guns and explosives. There was even a room that looked like an office with a desk and computer on it.
Liam passed all those rooms before he walked into another room that was literally filled with crates except a one small area that was clear enough for someone to enter it and close the door behind them. He picked up one of the containers and brought it outside of the room into the hallway before setting it in front of Devika. He opened it up to reveal large bags full of a powdery substance that looked almost white dirt. He pulled out one of the bags and handed it to Devika.
" Can you mix some of that in with my tea please?" Liam asked her in a friendly voice. " I'll bring the container upstairs and leave it somewhere out of the way for you. I don't suggest trying to move it since it is very heavy."

Devika walked down the basement with him keeping clouse behind him she looked at each of the room as she passed morizing the house just incase Liam ever had her go down hear and get any for him she needed to know the lay out of the house just as well as he did if not better.
When they reached the room Devika looked at the room seeing the large crates she grabbed the bag she smiled at him as if this was completely normal She asked if he needed anything else down hear before she headed back up stairs.
Once she was upstairs she started making the tea again She added the power to the tea before she turned to Liam and smiled "Sir may I ask a question...I was wondering what this power"
She was just wondering being that he did say that he wasn't really built like the rest of the world that and she did want to know what was that he wanted in his tea so she new how much to add if it was a spice of some sort or drug maybe some vitamins or something also if she could the water was now nice and warm and she was adding the other spices and was getting ready to add the strange powder.

Liam picked the crate containing the bags of powder back up and took it up the stairs as he followed Devika. He went to find an out of the way spot to place the crate down at while Devika went to the kitchen. He found it after a moment and set the crate down. As he was standing back up, he heard what Devika said to him from the kitchen. He walked into the kitchen quietly.
" That white stuff is a refined clay powder. It contains silicon and other important minerals my body needs that I can't get from human foods. I have to take that stuff any time I take serious damage to my body or when my body is low on the minerals I need." Liam said to her in reply after getting into the kitchen. " It is an uncommon type of clay to find too, so that's why there is so much of it down there. That's a good thing about my mutation I guess, my 'food' will never go bad."
Liam laughed lightly for a moment after he finished talking. He went over and sat down and just looked at Devika. He wasn't sure what she would think about this, but it wasn't that odd or uncommon as one would think to digest clay. Although he had to admit that while he was consuming it for nutrients, most people did it to help with issues of swallowing poisons or toxic substances.
" Just mix that powder in with water or tea or even soda. So long as it is in there it will be fine. Don't mix too much though or it will cake the bottom of the cup with clay." Liam said after a moment.
