It had been the worst few months of Michelle's life, she had to leave her husband against all odds due to his inconsistencies, then he wanted her back she had to struggle with all the emotions as even to this day she still loves William like there is no tomorrow, now the divorce papers were through, and all morning all Michelle could do was look at them, so to distract herslef from not signing the papers that would end her life, Michelle decided to leave the two younger children with her sister, Ashleigh and take Sebastian for a meal, the only child of hers who actually would not talk about his father at all. Topsy-turvy, one of the places herself and William liked was a grand choice to take her son, walking through the door, Michelle watched as her five-year old walked her to a booth and picked up a menu, he was the only remember she had of her five year marriage, he looked so much like his father, his eyes were as dark as his fathers, his hair as wild and just as black, his stature exactly the same. Flashback. Michelle was walking around the headquatres of the Death Eaters wondering what to do with herself, she was five months pregnant and knew she didn't want this baby, but she could not terminate the pregnancy when she went to the center. After Williams threat she had trodden carefully. "Michelle....we need to talk" Michelle turned around to see William standing there talking to her, she stood her ground, gazing William the death glance. "I have no need to talk to you!" She snarled at him. "Just get lost William, I want no more to do with you" William came closer until he was right in her face. "This is my child also!" He raised his voice, "I will be in his life" Michelle had to admit she was falling sharply for this guy but she knew he was only interested in the baby, who she found out yesterday was a boy. "Will you marry me, Michelle?" She heard him ask, before she could think a 'yes' came out, before William kissed her with greed and passion. End Flashback "Mummy, what are you getting?" A small voice knocked Michelle out of her thoughts, she looked up and noticed her son was waiting for her to write down her order to the kitchen. "Oh, sorry baby.....I'll have the coffee and chicken roast, do you want the same as me" She asked, Sebastian nodded, so she ordered a kids version. "You knocked mummy out of her thoughts then, you know I was thinking back to when your daddy and me decided to get married" She said, then she heard a sniff, "Bastian...what's up baby?" She asked, moving closer to her son, deep down he was just like her, whilst on the outside he was like his dad. "I miss daddy" He said after a while, as his juice came to the table. "And I....I miss Maddie" He said sadly, a tinge hit Michelle, her eldest daughter had been dead a whole year now, she'd never thought about it, "Mummy" Sebastian said, "Will daddy ever come home?" "I don't know sweetie" Michelle sighed, "Just wait and see" She kissed the top of his head, trying to keep the tears away, she knew William may never come home. |

It had been a while since Torban had had any...social meetings. Actually, now that he thought of it, it had been a while since he'd actually talked to anyone. Solitude was a beautiful thing, but it made Torban want people sooner or later. That or to just sit down with a couple bottles of scotch. He really needed to stop drinking. But, oh well. Old habits die hard, right? Torban had taken it upon himself to do something productive with his time. Hiring people to do some things here and there was exactly what he had in mind. Some did the dirty tasks, some did the...clean ones. And some just stood around for the appearance. A lot of work went into managing a hotel like Nebula. He needed to keep an innocent appearance around it while the black market dealings happened at the same time. Where was Adam anyways? He had just jumped off of the edge of the world or something. It wasn't funny. Not at all. Leaving someone as incapable in business as Torban to work things out. He was the hands on guy, the one that did the killing, stealing, and other crimes. Shrugging to himself, Torban smoothed out his black pinstripe suit and squared his shoulders. Now, he was after a specific woman. Well, not after after. Michelle Powers had managed to cause a lot of chaos in the recent years. He could use someone like her. And so could Adam. He just probably wouldn't like to work with family. But oh well, he's too busy being king of the world somewhere, right? As he entered the restaurant, he searched for this fresh face. He found her soon enough, but those who were accompanying her caused him quite a stir. He did not like children. Absolutely not. Children were whiny, wet, stinky, slobbery, disgusting in general. Why did she have to bring children? Damn, this was going to be a nightmare! "Ms Powers I presume?" He asked as he slid into a seat across from her. |

After their meals had arrived, Michelle picked at hers whilst she watched her son tuck in. He had been the reason why she was here, I mean, Michelle would not have stuck around if it wasn't for Sebastian. She'd still be happily single, maybe, she would have had Maddie still, it all seemed to kick off after she married William, although she was a Powers before, people really hated her even more when she married and started to really live up to the family name, being possessive, destructive, and a complete bitch. She had turned friends against her and her enemies even more so. So, really to say Michelle was now lonely, except for her children and part of the family would be just about right. Thinking back to just last year, Michelle remembered how happy she was, finding out she was pregnant soon after a miscarriage and her daughters death, but still risking it all to fight alongside her beloved husband. It all seemed such a stone throw away from where she wanted to be in reality. Although this year she was determined to make things right for the children, she couldn't help one greedy snatch at what she wanted this year. Well, it was only one thing, her husband. Although he has now dissapeared off with Adam somewhere and had not seen the kids since christmas, and Michelle was fuming that he had not even wrote to see how the children were doing, more so, Sebastian, his favourite. "Ms Powers I presume?" A voice make Michelle look from her son upwards, there she saw an all familiar face, Torban Rune was an acomplice of Adam's as well as a 'friend' to the family, so why would he presume it was her? When he know damn well it was. "Have I changed that much?" She asked him, knowing last few times they saw each other she was pregnant with Madaleine. "Yes, Torban, what do you want? Can you not see I'm spending time with my son...the only reminder I have" She added under her breath, knowing full well the if not for Sebastian she would not have managed, he was a great help. As she looked back at her son, he'd placed his knife and fork down and was looking up at Torban with amazement in his eyes, Michelle knew that Sebastian knew that Torban was just like his father and uncle, evil. |

"Have I changed that much? Yes, Torban, what do you want? Can you not see I'm spending time with my son...the only reminder I have" Torban merely smirked at Michelle. He of course, had amazing hearing, everyone knew that. So it was only normal to have heard that little addition her "I'm a caring mother" spiel. "Well, Ms Powers. You did look quite different since the last time I saw you," Bigger. Not that Torban really cared, he just needed to make some small talk and then get down to business or wait 'till Michelle told him to cut the crap. Torban looked down at Sebastien, who was staring up at him with those big "cute" eyes that children always had. "Eat up lad," he ordered with amusement as he tussled the child's hair. Torban wasn't exactly a children kind of guy. he never had been really. He was too busy with his own solitude. That and they were disgusting. Never had he had to have a child. Or at least, deal with a child. He did have one...offspring. But he was grown, and Torban had never been there for him during those awkward years. Not to mention, Tallen hated Torban. For obvious reasons, but still. It was a terrible thought really. His own son didn't like him. But torban had only wanted to 'reconcile' with Tallen for his own insane purposes. Not to be a wonderful father and such. Nope. Fatherhood was not for him. And so this little rascal sitting next to him was quite unnerving. He was distracting him from his purpose at the Topsy-Turvy. "Ms. Powers, I have a proposition for you." |

"Well, Ms Powers. You did look quite different since the last time I saw you," At times Michelle really hated these odd meeting where the other person will just spill crap all over the table till they were blue in the face and she had to sit here and listen, normally she would have let Torban carry on but at the moment she just wanted time with her son, and not to be disturbed, she watched as Torban ruffled her sons hair before he turned back to his own thoughts, Michelle kissed the top of her sons head and he started to eat with caution, keeping an eye out for his mother. "Cut the crap, Torban" She sighed, "You don't like kids so don't pretend...and also why is it me you need to talk to, where's Adam?" She was curious then she could find William. "Ms. Powers, I have a proposition for you." This was more like it. She had expected he wasn't here for reports on the children, then again, a proposition sounded fun, but there were obvious problems. Sipping her drink, she faced Torban. "What is it then?" She asked, hoping it would not be big, "And it had best not be a wind up cause I will kill you if it is" She snarled, "Also I have a question I've been meaning to ask you, so answer me, then tell me what the hell you need with me, understand?" She looked back at Sebastian who she knew was listening. "Where's my daddy, mister?" She heard Sebastian pipe up as she went to ask Torban the exact same question, instead she gave him the look that clearly said, 'Don't mess with me' |

"Cut the crap, Torban You don't like kids so don't pretend...and also why is it me you need to talk to, where's Adam?" "How would you know lass?" He asked rhetorically. "Like, I said. I have a proposition for you. Adam...well. He's Adam, right?" Did this woman really not know where Adam was? Great. This probably ruined everything. He had no reason to be here if she didn't know...Or maybe she did know but she was lying? Both were very credible ideas... "What is it then? And it had best not be a wind up cause I will kill you if it is. Also I have a question I've been meaning to ask you, so answer me, then tell me what the hell you need with me, understand?" "Where's my daddy, mister?" So they didn't know. That was just great. Perfect. His goddamn family didn't even know! Well, it was too late now. There was no point in pretending like he was here for something else. He looked away from Michelle and stared at Sebastien. "Sorry lad. I thought your mum would know. I'm working on it though, so don't worry." Torban looked back to Michelle. "That's what I came here for. To see if you knew where Adam has disappeared to. I'm not going to flatter myself. I am terrible at business. And if I'm stuck delegating one more business meeting..." Torban trailed off, realizing that what he had wanted to say was not for a child's ears. He coughed dryly. "Yes, well. Last I saw of Adam, he had no intentions of going somewhere. I had been hoping that someone in the family would know. Or at least have some sort of inkling. But I was obviously wrong." Damn. |

Michelle sighed, Torban was playing around. She knew one place where Adam could be but not where her husband was. Torban seemed to be having an issue with the business which was great, Michelle knew that if she lied about where Adam was maybe she could take over the business, I mean, what with the baby on it's way too, Michelle knew Adam would wanna stay with Jessie and the kids if possible. "How would you know lass? Like, I said. I have a proposition for you. Adam...well. He's Adam, right?" "I know more then what you think I do" Michelle answered, swiftly. "Your having trouble with the business and you want my assisstance either with digging your arse out of a whole, or finding Adam, well, I have only one place I would know Adam to hide to" She told him "Sorry lad. I thought your mum would know. I'm working on it though, so don't worry." "That's what I came here for. To see if you knew where Adam has disappeared to. I'm not going to flatter myself. I am terrible at business. And if I'm stuck delegating one more business meeting..." "Yes, well. Last I saw of Adam, he had no intentions of going somewhere. I had been hoping that someone in the family would know. Or at least have some sort of inkling. But I was obviously wrong." Michelle listened and each time she heard maybe this was her chance to make something more fdrom her family. "Adam is in Ireland to take over the thrown there whilst Jessie see's out her pregnancy. Or at least that's what I was told. As for the business, give me a slice of the action and I can find out an address and contact details" She said simply. "I only know of one area in Ireland Adam would go, but I can't and won't tell if I don't get a slice of the action that will put me back up the dark lords rador, higher...then Adam" She said, it was now or never. |

"Your having trouble with the business and you want my assisstance either with digging your arse out of a whole, or finding Adam, well, I have only one place I would know Adam to hide to" "I am not in some hole or whatever. Not at all. I just...prefer to do other work. Adam was the one who did all of the political crap. And you know it. I'm not made for that kind of stuff." Why was he telling her this? After all, what did it matter to her? She was, after all, just a family member! "Adam is in Ireland to take over the thrown there whilst Jessie see's out her pregnancy. Or at least that's what I was told. As for the business, give me a slice of the action and I can find out an address and contact details. I only know of one area in Ireland Adam would go, but I can't and won't tell if I don't get a slice of the action that will put me back up the dark lords rador, higher...then Adam" Was this woman mental? "You're kidding right? You want me to let you run the Nebula so that old crappy riddle can love you again? You're like one of those pathetic puppies who will do anything to get it's master's attention, until he drops you like a stone again and finds a new best friend!" Torban slammed his fist against the table. He was not going to help her with voldemort of all people. "That, and even though Adam and I aren't "best buds", I'm not going to hand over his work so that you do with it a you like. I don't trust you enough to do that." Never in a million years did he think that this would all be reversed and she would be wanting the company. Never... |

Michele smirked, in her twenty-nine years of life if there was one thing she could do and that was wind a man up, or know what buttons to push, she didnt want to be loved my Voldemort, nor be his 'best-bud' she wanted to overthrow her cousin, and brother in law, something she knew William was always right on, and if this would make him come back to her after so long apart she would do anything to get him back into the family arms, through practise, even Michelle could match to Adam now so there was no issue, the only issue before were the children but all they wanted was their father, and she was going to make that happen no matter what! "I am not in some hole or whatever. Not at all. I just...prefer to do other work. Adam was the one who did all of the political crap. And you know it. I'm not made for that kind of stuff." Michelle was well aware of Sebastian around, she sher turned to her son, "Baby, mummy and Mr. Rune need to sort out some family things, theres a swing set over there, can you go over and play on it for me?" She asked, as Sebastian nodded, she knew he didn't wanna sit there for much longer. She turned her attention back to Torban who started talking again. "You're kidding right? You want me to let you run the Nebula so that old crappy riddle can love you again? You're like one of those pathetic puppies who will do anything to get it's master's attention, until he drops you like a stone again and finds a new best friend!" "That, and even though Adam and I aren't "best buds", I'm not going to hand over his work so that you do with it a you like. I don't trust you enough to do that." Michelle had now moved closer to Torban and so she could see her son, she faced him, "You listen to me, I don't want Riddle to love me, I want my husband back here with our family like he should be, and Adam is stopping that, a few months back William staged to overthrow his own brother, now if you don't allow me to take control of the hotel for the unforseeable future, I will have to kill you and your entire family, my children want their dad and as far as you and Adam are around they aren't going to see their father again." Michelle opened her jacket slightly to show Torban her wand, meaning she mean't business. "Your right, Riddle would just dump me when he has a new best friend, but William wouldn't. I'm going to fufil his dreams of being the head-honcho of the family...and your going to help me" With some force, Michelle pinned Torban's arm to the table, ensuring it burned under her palm. "I don't like to hurt people, but to get what I want, I will" She whispered into his ear. |

I don't like to hurt people, but to get what I want, I will" "Have you done your research? Seriously woman! If you knew a single thing about me, you'd know that I have no family and that I don't care if you have a wand or not. Wands don't goddamn scare me. Neither does this little tactic," Torban pointed to his pinned arm. "What you want doesn't interest me at all. Frankly, I would only give the business to you so that you could ruin it. You'd never survive. Especially since it's mostly run by my people and the scarlet guard. Don't be so foolish as to think that you can control them." Now it was Torban's turn. He grabbed Michelle's arm and pinned it against the table and then grabbed her jacket, pulling her closer. "I would be careful about making death threats around me. Seeing as I never come alone, and you really don't want to get caught in a situation where you could put your family in danger, now would you?" Torban nodded over to the swing set. There was a man in the shadows of a corner nearby wearing the customary dark blue cloak. His eyes kept flickering between Torban and Sebastien, ready to pounce if need be. If one looked close enough, there were several other men wearing the same dark blue cloaks located in the restaurant. Torban never came alone. He smirked at Michelle and tilted his head. "Now, what were you saying?" His eyes glowed a bright yellow for a split second. He would turn into his wolf form at any moment if he had to. He was ready. |

Sometimes Michelle knew it was best to keep her mouth shut so as Torban was talking she looking straight into his eyes. She wasn't going to be intimidated by this man, not like anyone could actually intimidate her, it was just best if she showed a slight bit of fear. "Have you done your research? Seriously woman! If you knew a single thing about me, you'd know that I have no family and that I don't care if you have a wand or not. Wands don't goddamn scare me. Neither does this little tactic. What you want doesn't interest me at all. Frankly, I would only give the business to you so that you could ruin it. You'd never survive. Especially since it's mostly run by my people and the scarlet guard. Don't be so foolish as to think that you can control them." Michelle rolled her eyes, as he finished, she smirked, "Oh is the speech over, I must have fallen asleep it was so lame!" She snarled. "Now, you listen to me, I don't want to hurt you, but I'm feeling I may need to, if you had the single little bit of knowledge what is said in my family home, you'd know that I know you have a son, and although you may not love him like a father should love a child, I reckon you'd still be destroyed if anything was to happen to him." She said. By this point, however, Torban had grabbed her jacket and pulled her closer. "I would be careful about making death threats around me. Seeing as I never come alone, and you really don't want to get caught in a situation where you could put your family in danger, now would you?" Michelle followed his gaze to the swing set where she had sent her son, and there was a man in a dark outfit, standing near her son! Now, her eyes filled with panic, however, not regret. She pulled herself away from Torban and went to get her son, but before she could move she knew it only took one wrong move and her son could be in dnager, oh why did she have to come out today of all days!? But she was determined to help Sebastian, she already lost Maddie, she was not going to bury another child! "Now, what were you saying?" By this point, Michelle's eyes were glowing a dangerous red, she was not going to hold back using her full potential power if she needed to. "Tell your thugs to back away from my son" She demanded, looking back she saw a few more men around, by now she was really worrying, "Sebastian!" She shouted, as her son looked up, "Mummy doesn't want you to worry, but run to me now!" She yelled as her son ran into her arms, now he was safe, she faced Torban, and smirked. "Plan didn't work did it?" She mused. "Now as I was saying, you will help me then I will help you or you'll go tits up before you even reach tomorrow" She said. |

Now, you listen to me, I don't want to hurt you, but I'm feeling I may need to, if you had the single little bit of knowledge what is said in my family home, you'd know that I know you have a son, and although you may not love him like a father should love a child, I reckon you'd still be destroyed if anything was to happen to him." "Son? What son? Oh yes. That one. You mean the really rich one with plenty of security and under the watchful eye of my sister? Yeah. That's smart. Go after him. It'll be your funeral. And besides, what pathetic excuse is 'I don't want to hurt you'? Seriously. If you don't want to then don't. It's really not that hard to figure it out, even if you can't very well use your brain too well." Oops, had he just insulted her? Oh well. Pride always gets the best of the Powers family. He was just waiting for her to do something stupid. "Tell your thugs to back away from my son. Sebastian! Mummy doesn't want you to worry, but run to me now! Plan didn't work did it? Now as I was saying, you will help me then I will help you or you'll go tits up before you even reach tomorrow" The men waited for a signal from Torban, but he didn't budge. Let the boy run to his mommy. Oh well. But his men came closer from all sides of the restaurant. "Now really, is this anyway to behave in public? We don't want to scare these people do we? Hmm? But I might need to remind you, I'm no gentleman. I don't care if it's ten against two. Really. I don't. So this is how it's going to work. I leave and you finish your dinner with Sebastien. That, or I can hand over the business for you to screw up and wait for Adam to come along and rip you apart. So. Second option and you dig your own grave, first option and you get to live a little bit longer. How about it?" |

It's really not that hard to figure it out, even if you can't very well use your brain too well." Okay, so the brain comment hurt, but Michelle didn't let it lie. She gave it a few moments the smirked. "Oh, was that supposed to insult me?" She asked, her eyes glowing between the hazel and red, a sure sign of calming down. Wrapping her arms around Sebastian she watched Torban. "Now really, is this anyway to behave in public? We don't want to scare these people do we? Hmm? But I might need to remind you, I'm no gentleman. I don't care if it's ten against two. Really. I don't. So this is how it's going to work. I leave and you finish your dinner with Sebastien.

Second option and you dig your own grave, first option and you get to live a little bit longer. How about it?" Michelle made a face like she was thinking hard about the options she was provided. she loved how this would make time. "How about you go nowhere and we talk properly about the options?" She had calmed down by this point and was more willing to talk. |

"How about you go nowhere and we talk properly about the options?" Torban yawned, faking tiredness. "Hmm, see, I dunno. I feel like I'm ready to turn in. You know, seeing as a man like me needs his beauty sleep." He didn't budge though. He didn't like being forced into situations like these. And really, if he did pull something off today, well, someone was definitely going to be after him The owners of the Topsy-Turvy for getting blood all over their precious restaurant. Michelle wasn't a very convincing person, at least, not to her. She had attempted to pressure him into a situation where he would obviously win. Whichever direction she took, he would come out on top. That was the problem, she was too stubborn to see it. Adam would come after her eventually. There was no doubt about that. There was also no doubt about whether or not Torban's men would be able to hold their own against this woman. He had seen her fight. From his perspective, she was full of words not actions. She was as harmless as a teddy bear. BUT, just to be on the safe side, he allowed his men to stay around him. "Here's the thing. I don't particularly like how you talk. I'd prefer to have my suit be able to see yet another day. So I think you'd better give me one good reason to stay. It's that, or I'm off to bed." |
