'So what do you think of it all?'

Caterina asked Delsin's opinion of the letter she received from the Conduit Rights League. She made him read the letter before they had their dinner that evening.

'Well I suppose we can go meet up with them and see what this is all about.'

'True.' Caterina replied as she mopped up the last of the beef stew gravy from her plate with the last bit of suet dumpling she had on her fork. As soon as she ate the last bite and laid her fork down on the plate; Delsin started to clear the table. He picked up their empty plates and cutlery then stacked everything in the dishwasher in the kitchen before returning to Caterina at the table.

'You make the best meals ever.' Delsin said as he bent down and kissed Cat on the forehead. He took her hand and pulled her up out of her chair then led her over to the sofa. The open plan living area and kitchen was nice and cosy as Delsin had lit the fire earlier on. Tonight would be another night of snuggling on the sofa and channel hopping till they found something they wanted to watch. They eventually settled on watching Mr. Bean as Caterina demanded Delsin stop switching through channels as soon as she saw it.

A few episodes in to their Mr. Bean marathon, Delsin got up from the sofa and wandered in to the kitchen. Caterina stood up and wandered upstairs to get changed in to her pyjamas. She came back to find that Delsin had put some popcorn and tortilla chips in to bowls and set them down on the coffee table. He was still clanging around in the kitchen so Caterina got herself comfortable again on the sofa.

'Whisky for the lady.' Delsin said as sat himself down next the Caterina and held up a small glass for her with a healthy measure of the amber liquid in it.

'So what am I doing tonight? Toy Soldiers, grenades, penguins?'

'I've had a good think this time, how about… Lego bricks?'

'Shit Delsin you don't make this easy on me.' Caterina chuckled. She cleared her throat and closed her eyes for a second or two as she held her right hand out with her palm facing up. Delsin watched as Cat's hand started to frost up. She kept her eyes closed as she concentrated her power in to forming ice in the shape of Lego Bricks. Delsin and Caterina didn't have much use for their abilities these days especially as they weren't fighting the D.U.P. anymore. But they both tried to keep on top of it all when they got the chance just by doing stupid little things to keep them in practice. Caterina's practicing consisted of trying to form ice in the shape Delsin suggested.

The first few Lego bricks she formed in her hand were a little on the misshapen side, so she re-absorbed them then started again. The second lot looked better but Cat still wasn't happy so she absorbed those ones. Third time lucky and the blocks of ice started to resemble Lego bricks. She smiled as she showed the half dozen ice Lego bricks to Delsin who held his glass out to her. Caterina tipped the bricks in to his glass.

'I wonder if you stood on those ones they'd hurt as much as stepping on the real ones?' Delsin quizzed as he sipped his newly iced glass of whisky.

'You wanna try it out? I can make more?' Cat grinned in reply. Delsin just laughed at her.

Caterina and Delsin carried on watching more episodes of Mr. Bean whilst munching away on their snacks and sipping their whisky. By the time another episode had finished, Caterina had noticed that it was half past ten in the evening.

'Shall we stick the news on for a bit?' She asked Delsin. He nodded at her and pushed a few buttons on the TV remote, switching it to a news channel.

'… over the past fortnight as the number of attacks now stands at seven. Three of the attacks which occurred in Boston, Naperville and Beaumont were claimed by the anti-Conduit group "Humans First" while the remaining attacks are still unknown and are currently being investigated. Local police forces are stressing to the public that any suspicious activities must be reported immediately.'

'Oh my God those dicks again?' Delsin exclaimed. 'These guys need to stop this.'

'These are the people who're going around attacking Conduit owned businesses right? I've seen some of their stupid videos on Facebook, kinda like that hacking bunch that wear those masks. That one guy in the videos does the same kind thing.' Caterina cringed.

'Well nobody knows who this guy is in the videos but they've started calling him the "Dark Enigma" or something stupid like that.'

'Really? The Dark Enigma?' Cat guffawed. 'That sounds really tacky.'

'Yeah you only ever see him wearing dark clothes in the videos and this black mask completely covers his face, so nobody knows who he is at all.' Delsin informed Caterina. 'He doesn't even mention a name he goes by, just says that he's the leader of Humans First.'

A bemused look had appeared on Caterina's face as she grabbed a handful of popcorn.

'Heh, remember they used to call us Bio-terrorists? What a laugh, these guys are full on terrorists.' Caterina remarked.

'I wonder what the CRL think of it all.' Delsin stated. He scooted closer to Cat on the sofa and pinched some of the popcorn out of her hand.

'Same thing as we are probably; that this Humans First lot are a bad bunch. It's only a matter of time before they start racking up kills.'

'Yeah but even so, it's only a matter of time before they encounter a Conduit who will fight back. The shit will hit the fan then.'

Delsin had a point. It had taken a little while for then general human public to acknowledge Conduits as actual people and things were slowly coming in to place after what had happened with the D.U.P. in Seattle. The Conduit Rights League were doing what they could to make sure that Conduits weren't discriminated against and that the regular folk were getting educated on what Conduits are. This was all nationwide now as after the D.U.P. were disbanded; Conduits began to come out from hiding.

'Ahh this is getting depressing. Stick Mr. Bean back on I need a laugh.' Caterina exclaimed. Delsin switched the channel over and immediately started laughing along with Cat as they watched Mr. Bean sat on a park bench making a sandwich.
