House of Mystery
Here/Not Here
"Ladies and Ghosts... Let me introduce you to my home away from home..
Welcome to THE HOUSE OF MYSTERY" - John Constantine
The House of Mystery is a transdimensional magical house that can move through time and space is constantly changing size and shape and the rooms are never the same. It has an enchantment on it that unless you are looking for it you'll never know it's there. It usually aways that spooky house at the end of the street, or the abandoned house up the ill, hell sometimes it a condemned apartment building. However one thing is certain it's never around unless it owner Alan Cypher put it there.

 Alan Cypher
After hearing that once again Vera's ancestors were given her a hard time. He couldn't help but sigh. "Really luv. Was hoping you were going to give me something more of a challenge than that." Alan shut the door behind Vera and pulled out a old Victorian looking skeleton key. Slipping it into his office door he re-opened it. This time door did not return to the rest of the building however lead to a large foyer where a short demon stood in the most gentlemanly way possible. "Cain it seems we will be assisting Lady Vera again will you please go and get the items we need." Cain bowed but grumbled a little as if he didn't like the idea of helping anyone.
After receiving his the magical tools he would need to enter Vera's mind and some other tools used for, spirit wards, voodoo and thaumaturgy. Alan brought Vera to his office in the house. A very different office this one had names of superheroes, villains, and high level demons each with little notes written about them, some were in Alan's some were in his predecessor. "Alright Vera shall we begin."
Though just as he sat down the small tv in the back corner kicked on and showed the yellow lantern threatening the world and shortly after that Alan would feel an abundance of magical energy being channeled through the air to several different locations. "Well that's just bloody fantastic." He said letting out a sigh before returning his gaze back to Vera curious if she cared enough to get involved.

Vera rolled her eyes at Alan, " Well, if I bore you, I can always ask my fathers. I think they could make things very challenging. " She arched an inky brow at him and smirked, at how much of a idle treat it was and she knew, he knew it too. Again the only reason she was her cus, he didn't have anyone else to turn to. She just had to make the treat anyhow, it was her way after all. She fallowed Alan to the door and watch as he used the fancy old key to make the portal to the house of mystery. A place she was vaugy sure had been made by the same beings who made her own home.... though she had no prove on that theory. Just that they seemed to work in very similar ways. Not overly soo but they could have been sisters.... well half sisters.
She give the grumbling imp a glare and add along with it sticking out her tongue. She didn't do it, because she mind his grumpy manner. She and Mr. Cain had never gotten on. Demon's are not chummy for the most part with anyone let a long their own kind, or more to the fact, half their own kind. After spending most of her time with children, she had picked up a few ways of dealing with others that were not overly adult. Nor was she a grown up in her own mind. When the little posh demon had wandered off to find what Alan requested, Vera followed Al to his office at home, it was plastered with a few faces V knew with little notes underneath their names, one caught her eye. It read, TOTAL TOOL. She shook her head, but she couldn't agree more with the statement and flop into Al's chair. She was going to be comfortable if he was going to be poking about in her mind. " Of course, lets get that old bat out of my head."
Before they could started however the, tv started to blare and Vera felt the same rush of power, Al did. She scrunched up her face and replayed to Al remark, " Frak, can the universe see I've got issues of my own?"

Alan couldn't help but chuckle at Vera's cursing and he opened up a drawer on his desk where a amulet laid picking it up he tossed it over to Vera. "Here take this. It will keep any spirits, ghosts and pretty much everyone else out of your head. Atleast for a little while, we will still need to return here for a more permanent solution later." Alan was sure Vera would be fine with it. As much as she tried to come off as cold hearted she was a real sweetheart once you get past all the hot sassy demon in her.
Alan then reached into his pocket and pulled out a small silver ring and slipped it on allowing the magical energy within it course through his body. The ring would act as a shield protecting his body from physical harm. He once got hit by a truck while wearing it and was able to get up and walk away completely unscathed. Though did have to walk back up the hill he was thrown off of.
Alan also took all the tools he had prepared for Vera and slipped them into his coat before putting it on. Making sure he was ready he looked over to Vera. "Now cmon luv, let's stop a fish invasion and have a little fun. " He said with a smile. "I will even drop you off in Gotham if you want make things a nice and easy walk for ya." (Feel free to move Alan to the door with you and say the house moved to Gotham for to enter it if you want. Or we can keep going for another post. mrgreen )

1 Week On 16/01/2014
After The Reign of Fear and the eternity it seemed to last, time once again began to fly by like normal until eventually, a week had passed. The main areas that bore the brunt of the assault: Coast City, Metropolis and Gotham easily begun their repairs and using their experience in cleaning up after super-powered individuals shortened the process to take little time at all.
Now that it was all over, the heroes now united could return to their normal lives. They could go to school. They could work. And eventually they could go back to their duties as superheroes; what's more is that more and more Legacies also began to develop. The world was finally recovering, the Void filling.
But just as the Crystal Grave was now inscribed with the word "WEAK" across its beautiful face, more and more things began to change. The White House shuddered. The President was unsure. How was he meant to deal with the Gods Now Amongst his people again? How was he meant to reign in people so powerful that they could decimate a whole army with a shoddy construct and a misfire?
The World was on the edge of its seat...
And the Universe looked on expectantly...

Vera tilted her head back merely smiled at the tall and vaguely angry man. When he freed her, she was just about point out a few flaws in his little rant. Mainly that she, not him, should be looking as he was. Her mouth was posed to tell him off in an elegant and meaningful way, when he blurted off as he did which was followed by him rushed off to fight the intruders. So her mouth was still doing some hang time as she shook her head in disbelief. Vera closed her lips, giving a glare to the space where Alan had stood. She had no desire to help him at this instant and planned on taking her time. At last she was free and there were a few things Vera wanted to do. Starting with rubbed her wrists, after which she rolled her neck letting out a sigh when it popped. As a cherry to top these actions off, she scratched her nose. A moan of pleasure left her throat as something she’d wanted to do for the last couple of weeks felt so unbelievingly good.
With little to no grace she eased herself off the chair. Her feet and leg muscle screamed a little as they were being used. This made her a little wobbly, as she walk around the chair trying to get her body back to awake. She took a few deep breaths. It was painful moving around, as she had that pin and needles sensation racing its way through her whole body. She bit her lip to keep from crying out. Yep she was going to kill Alan. Sure she could say a few words and feel “all better” but it was the principle of the thing. Plus magic was good at fixing things, but bodies are a little hard to listen at times. So better to let little things like setting still for a month work itself out. So she went on biting her lip and walking slowly around the chair, along with it was nice to move.
In the background she could hear Alan running about yelling at someone, she didn't' pay it any mind. She did smell the smoke though, that was a little odd. In a cheeky manner, " Dear, you need a hand? She felt like hell without a doubt, and was pretty sure she look a lot like hell too, her work clothes where a mess and her hair? She didn't want to see what it happen to look like in the mirror. The next thing on her to do list was take care of her looks for sure. That, she would use magic for. As she didn't ever want to see these clothes again.

 _________⇢xxWonder Boy█ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ _____________________Location: House of M
With: Flash
Feeling: Ready To Save Others As a being created through magic, it was not hard for him to notice the House of M when it had first appeared in Metropolis. More so, it wasn't hard for him to understand that the male who had managed to steal Shazam's powers more than likely resided within the powerful household. Pulling on the lasso, he wrapped his hand around a majority of it so that the Flash would be directly in front of him when he landed on the door step to the House of M. Knocking once on the door before them, he spoke. "I am Damian Prince of Themyscira, and I request your aid! The life of someone hangs by a thin thread." His voice echoed through the immediate area, and while he waited, he removed the majority of his lasso from his hand, and tied more of it around the Flash's body. This way, there would be no breaking out from his lasso's grip like last time. Now however, he merely needed to wait for a response. If one was not given, then he would give them reason to respond to his cry for help.

Alan heard Vera's cheeky manner and he turned back to where he was. "Damn straight I do you bloody demon woman. You let the Cold Flame get a map to Croyden's Compass. Wha-." he stopped as he heard the sound of pounding on the front door. "Stars and Stones this is turning out to be one hell of a day." He stated before walking through the rooms letting the house readjust itself to lead him to Victorian foyer. Though as he approached the door he did make an effort to shot back to Vera. "Woman put fix your clothes and make yourself ready."
Alan reached the door shortly after taking a breath to ready his will and magical energies should it be an attacker. He definitely wasn't going to be caught with his britches down. He then calmly opened the door to see who it was. It took him a brief moment but he immediately recognized the Wonderkid and apparently the new Kid Flash, who was apparently being turned to stone. Alan nodded his headed and then abruptly slammed the door shut and began shouting at the top of his lungs. "ARE YOU ******** KIDDING ME?!" His trenchcoat began to flutter in the air as the magical energies stirred around him wildly. "REALLY UNIVERSE!! You just had to do it to me huh.. YOU FAT SON OF A b***h!!!." Alan annoyance had reached his peak and he couldn't help but swear to destroy the forces that be. It's not that the magician disliked or didn't want to help. It's more of he hated how the universe loved to fulfill proverbs.....like one that stated. 'When it rains it pours.'
After a couple seconds to calm his magical energies. Alan reopened the door and waved the pair. "Cmon get him inside. I will prepare some wards. While you tell me what happened." He said turning and heading through the foyer. The door at the end of the foyer opened and a small demon walked into the room. "Cain, go get me my tools." The goblin mumbled about the how it was a disgrace to let outsiders into the house and Alan just shooed him growling beneath his breath. "I said go." Alan then shouted through the house. "Vera come here quick we might need some immediate magic."

 Darius didn't know where they were going but this seemed really creepy half of his eye had ben turned to stone at this point, and everything in his left eye was blurry, and he couldn't close it, so it was practically just drying out. What made it worse was Damian pulling at him like a pet. "You know, this may be normal for you on Themyscira but, I feel a bit emasculated. Haha." Darius said. Even in the face of his own demise, he still found a way to laugh. They landed and Damian knocked pleading for a life that wasn't his own. Darius had no way to repay him for such a thing, but he was grateful more than Damian would ever know.
Soon enough a brown haired man. Opened the door and heard Damian out. Then slammed it. "Well.....that was quite rude." Darius said, and the moment after he did the door reopened and he let them into the house. Darius walked in; his legs weren't stone yet, but a good portion of his shoulder and upper arm were. He sat down and tried to sit back but he looked awkward as hell. Then he heard the man speak a name that made his heart stop, back flip then roundhouse kick his chest as it began beating again. This man knew Vera, so that mean they did come for her. He knew it, he would see her again. But the man asked what had happened. "Well....you see what had happened was....I fought Circe and thought I knocked her out but really she disguised herself as civilian, and the civilian as her, thenshehadamonsterchaseafterherleadingmetosaveherandthenshekissedmeandturnedmycheektostone." Darius said the important part of the story lost in his speed speech, sometimes when he wasn't concentrating or was nervous it just occurred like word diarrhea. He smiled hoping they understood what he said. But he was nervous as hell, normally seeing a woman again was an easy thing, but something about Vera made his very soul melt, and his stomach feel like someone had opened an aviary in his stomach. He sighed as he wiped sweat from his non stone brow and tried to relax. "Hey I know this isn't like a modern building, but uh do you guys have A/C? Or am I the only one who's dying of heat?" Darius said shakily. Allies: Damian Prince, Alan Cypher, and Vera Ravencroft || Enemies: None || Thoughts: What is this? Is this an effect of Circe's magic?

"Cold What?... Oh nevermind." The dark haired maiden wave her had dismissively as Alan went off again. There was no talking to him now, nor did she really want too. If this kept on as it was one of them would end up crispy. Vera made one more round of her chair. Her muscle had come back to life and she was at least functional again. As if he had to tell her what to do again, Alan butted in saying "fix your clothes", which made a grumbled escape the woman lips," Control Freak." Then she waved her hands down her body and said a few words under her breath and bam she was back to being.. "human" again and looking like she was about to go out on the town. Taking her sweet time she strutted into the foyer.
She arch inky eyebrow as she came in just in time to see Alan slam the door and rant some more. She was leaning on a wall when he called, ‘Vera come here quick we might need some immediate magic'. Pulling herself out of the shadows Vera said in low menacing tone, " Not your pet, order about. " She brushed by him. Vera said in a much warmer tone, “Well boys come on in." She had heard all that "verbal dysentery" Flash had spouted at them. So she didn’t have much question the Goddess Circe was a little hard to handle for anyone. After the group had moved themselves inside. She smiled, " Well not all older woman are as nice as me kiddo. I do feel a little jealous however.” Teasing him slightly. She Turned to the other young man and give him a good look over, “Aren’t you just a yummy tower of … hmm. Would you take that pretty lasso off him for a moment, Wonder… Boy? Don’t want more power flying around him then needed.”
She waited until Wonder Boy had removed his lasso, then step forward, tipping her fingers up the Flash’s chest as she hummed a few words in some forgotten langue. Words that person might have picked on were she’d had called on the Goddess Isis a few times and Goddess Hubby Osiris. Her eyes and lips started to glow lightly. The raven haired woman placed her lips to Flash and gave him a nicer kiss then the Circe had. As she kissed him the glowing flood into Flash and moved to the stone parts. The Stone started to melting back to flesh when she broke her lips away from his. “Was that instant enough for you?” She said to Alan, but was smiling at the Flash. Going on to say more to Alan, still looking at the Flash, “You can fix the hangover magic I am sure Al … I did all the arduous work after all." She smirked.
