"They will suffice," she said simply. Admittedly they weren't optimum, but they would manage her equipment.

"Suffice is not good enough. I will begin packing a few of my things once we return." He set the circle up again, renewing the slash in his wrist to make the circle in fresh blood. "Come. We will go to your chamber. I will need your help though. You must concentrate on the location of the chamber and nothing else. I cannot get us there because I am not tied to the area. You are, and through you, I should be able to move us."

"You will do no such thing," she said firmly as she stepped into the circle with him. "I will not let you give up your home."

"My home is where you are, thus it is as mobile as you are. Whenever you are read, begin your thinking."

Firebolt frowned but began to focus upon a place...it was not her own dwelling.

Sinthos held to her, amending his incatation to work with her envisioned place. The wind came again, sweeping them away to the image in her head.

Firebolt winced as the magic pulled at her, causing more energy shorts to ripple along her body. She opened her eyes to find darkness
"Don't move...you picked the wrong lab..."
"Grandmother, it's just me!" she called out.
Blackarachnia narrowed her eyes on the pair, "Haven't you ever heard of knocking?"

"It was My intended place of arrival," she said firmly. "They have everything that I will need and the huntress does not know this location."
"Huntress?" Blackarachnia frowned. "Well that answers my next question...Come on, the chamber's this way..."
"Thank you, Grandmother."
"Hey! What have I told you about that?"
"Thank you, Blackarachnia," Firebolt smiled gratefully. "Is grandfather here?"
"He'll be down soon. When the premiter alarms went off he wanted to check the surrounding areas...nice to know they detect even magical movements..."

Sinthos eyed the exchange carefully, following behind Firebolt and watching his back, not feeling as welcome in the place as she obviously did.

"I would ask who this is with you but there's not much of a point," she said eying the male. "Funny how you all end up with magic wielders..."
"This is Sinthos," Firebolt said glancing back at him. "He is a friend. Sinthos, this is Blackarachnia, one of the primes of my kind in this valley."

He cringed at the word friend. "It is somewhat of a pleasure. Though I would have preferred better circumstances for a meeting with you."

"These tend to be typical circumstances for this family," Blackarachnia answered opening a panel to a room. "In the chamber, now."
"Please set it to stabilization mode," Firebolt said entering the chamber.
"No...while we have you here we are going to make certain you are healed...especially with some huntress out there set on scrapping you..." She sealed the chamber without waiting for an answer and turned to deal with the male, "Your mate will be fine...given a few hours. If that's inconvenient you can just leave and we'll take care of her."

Sinthos sat down in front of the chamber, "I refuse to leave Firebolt, no matter what the circumstances."

A slow smile spread on Blackarachnia's face. "Good. Your wing is damaged - is that the work of this huntress as well?"
