Via bolts up in bed as her breathing labored. Looking at her 2nd story window, her head started to spiral.

The walls seem to close around her, the soft dark oak walls turning gray as her bed turns a pale white.

Without thinking Via opens the window and starts to climb out, trying to get out

- @askvia -

[Thanks to the mushrooms, Spore knows whats going on. And they knock on the door before entering.]

Via? Is everything alright?

[ask-herocles]

Via sat in an alleyway with an old friend. She was relaxed, giggling and catching up with them.

“Yeah mom is the best, despite everything going on as Mother Spore and all, she even offered to homeschool me!”

She didn’t notice the hero listening around the corner

- @askvia -

*Normally Herocles wouldn't pay any mind to normal civilians. Even to the tricky kids that wandered the streets with no home to go to. As long as they weren't causing problems, they were okay. But at the mention of the villains name, Herocles presses against a wall of the alleyway, listening.*

[ask-moonbig]

Where’s mom

- @askvia -

...ah

Hello, Via.

Your mother was attacked by a group of Watchers. They are safe and stable at Doc's home at the moment. Injured, but stable.

[ask-hero-cupid]

Via ducked under a punch from an old street kid. The two were in an all out fight, punches, kicks, biting.

It seemed to be escalating and the other kid drew a knife.

Neither of them seemed to notice the hero closeby

- @askvia -

*Cupid pulls out his bow at the sight of fhe fight and starts running at the two.*

HEY!

Stop that!

*He slides to a stop between them, his little wings flittering to keep his balance. He slowly turns in place to face the two children.*

[ask-mother-spore]

“Hey mom? Can I ask you something?”

Via looked extremely nervous as she approached Spore, very out of the ordinary for the usually brash confident girl.

Her hands twiddled with each other and her knee bounced, unable to look him in the eye

- @askvia -

Hm? Of course, my child. You can ask me anything.

[Spore crouches, hopeing it would help ease Via's nerves.]

[ask-mother-spore]

“Hey mom, something happened today that I think you should know” Via’s wings fluttered nervously

- @askvia -

Oh? What happened, my child? Are you alright?

[Spore's eyes immediately go to Via's wings they're so fragile...]

[ask-mother-spore]

Mom is…. is everything okay? I feel like I’m being Watched…?

@askvia

Greetings, my child.

I'm... I'm unsure. I'm slightly concerned, but it'll be alright.

[ask-mother-spore]

“Hey mom? Now that I uh feel better, can you show me how to make that stew from a few days ago?”

- @askvia -

Oh! Yes of course. Come right this way, my child.

[Spore is practically beaming, walking to the kitchen.]
