Even paradise could become a prison if one had enough time to take notice of the walls
welcome to Dire Tactics
Oddities are individuals born with extraordinary gifts. Because of this they are hated, feared and generally persecuted across the globe. In an attempt to give them a refuge the billionaire Theodore Ashford has created Ashford Isle. Presented as a Sanctuary for the special some believe their to be much darker motives behind his generosity.
Ashford Isle
A state of the art city powered completely by renewable energy, gorgeous modern building erected against the backdrop of a tropical paradise. It has all the luxuries modern technology can afford accompanied by the natural beauty and serenity only nature can provide. This city is open to all Oddities and their families, along with several hundred A.R.I. employees, it boast a modest population of just over 5,000 individuals consisting of a mix between both human and oddity. This wonderful utopia however is shaded in mystery both metaphorically and literally. The United Nations have dispatched several fleets of O.S.E. ships near the island, this gives the coastline a ominous view.

He actually had not ran. He had been as respectful as the harem had showed that they deserved and had in turn given them all a break because it was obvious that them all becoming mothers was getting to them. However he had made a change of plans as he now sat in the water with Star, Skylar, Mia, Gillian, Jacob, Hayden, Hunter, Cassandra, Leila, and TJ all surrounding him. "Look guys I know it's not Vegas, but look I guess I can level with you." He took a second to put Mia's ear pieces in and nodded towards her. "It's Kenya, which yes means I took you over continents, but I mean I'm your father, it's my right to make sure you enjoy life and plus I hear there are starfish here. Today is the day we find out."

It was less pressure as Taylor bonded with his children if she was in the water, which judging by where they were he knew. Did it slightly concern her of course but she knew he needed the time to bond. As for how he talked to the harem, no Cami did not approve but that was something they would have to deal with. Taylor felt happy, and she knew that on the outside it looked messy but he felt the best that she had felt him feel in weeks and without sex. If that was not her husband making progress then she had no idea what anyone wanted from him. As she swam, the star on her forehead slightly illuminated as she pulled herself out of the water. She grabbed her robe and pulled it on and made her way over to him. She had to carefully examine this situation because she knew Mia was three and could speak and the two year old twins probably in a way as well. She did take five steps away from Mia however as she picked Taylor Junior up. "Has she," because she refused to say Makayla's name. "Put him in water yet since he had his operation? Babies like water." Dr. Taylor Quinzell

"Aside from bathing, he has probably has not soaked up in the water," he said. It felt nice to be at peace as he adjusted the children and even slightly motioned for Mia to come sit by him which she did, although hesitant of Cami as she bee lined around Cami in order to get to Taylor. She found herself close to Taylor as she stared at Cami. "Mia," he said as she looked at Taylor now and shook her head no. "I get it," he said to her as he made sure to keep her close as he spoke to Cami. "Maybe later she will want to speak to you," he said as Jacob and Gillian made their way over and handed Taylor a few sand dollars which made him laugh. "Guys this is not real money but adorable," he said as they did make their way around Cami. They seemed okay with her. He watched as the rest were napping on and off. "Hey," he said as he looked at Cami and touched her forehead. "I like this," he said as he outlined her star. "It makes me feel good and it makes me not as nervous," he said as he blinked at her. He slightly touched it again and watched it start to break as the pieces fell across his one free hand. "Ooh," Gillian said. "So pretty," she added as Taylor nodded. Jacob spoke next. "Whoa," he said as he looked at Cami. "See Cami," Taylor said. "Told you they would like it." Dr. Cami Q.- Carter

"It's okay if Mia does not want to speak to me, she can be a little cunt face like her mom," she said. That was the hard part about all the different mothers, they were little whores. She tucked her lip in when Taylor started playing with her star. "I like the sand dollars, those are cute you should let them take some back home if they do like them." "I mean that's what it's there for Taylor. Your wildness makes it hard for me to keep control over it but we are learning together," she said as she adjusted TJ and put him in her lap. As the star pieces started to fall, she covered TJ and heard Jacob and Gillian as she extended her protection bubble outside to all of the little ones. "Taylor, please be careful around the children." It was not easy being Taylor's wife she had already knew that but that soul tie made her feel it. He was emotionally charged much like her, happy one minute and sad, lost the next. These times were needed no matter how much they hurt her. She moved TJ into her protection bubble and turned towards Taylor and moved Mia into her protection bubble as well, as well as Jacob and Gillian and the sand dollars. "Taylor," she said as she grabbed his hands. "Baby, I need you to apologize to the harem. Remember when you asked me and we talked about how we both had to learn how to handle it?" She sighed. "I approve you stepping up and bringing all your kids. I approve you giving them a break but I think it would be better if you apologized," she said as she took his hands and moved them up to her forehead. "Help me fix this." Dr. Taylor Quinzell

"I am always careful around them duckling, and no." Taylor was rebellious even in his older age. "I, like you have done all the apologizing I am going to do and they will deal. We dealt with this and now we are on vacation," he said as he turned to fix the pieces. They glimmered so as he smiled at her. "Besides my goal now is to fix my broken star," he said. "When I am done helping you I can help them. They are grown Cami and they have lives that they did not promise to love and vow and all of that shit." He zig zagged around her forehead. "Now, you are darling so today we shall find that star fish." Stars and Fish, yay. "Besides look at me, feel me Cami. My emotions are settled and so much better. Plus I mean you proposed to ME." Score. "Like right there in front of everyone, you were like this is my man and I was like this is my baby, and it felt very ritual like." Dr. Cami Q.- Carter

She blinked carefully at him. "Oh god," she whispered. "Taylor," She could see the signs. He was becoming addicted to her which was bad for their soul tie. "Always going to stand up for what I want." She could do this however. "We also spoke about this. You can not pour all of your good into loving me. It will hurt us both and love should not hurt. It might even cause you to appear to be different to others and then they will start snooping around and blame me." Then again. "Or we could use me being stuck in this body for the next few weeks to our advantage." They were so toxic loving. "You know if we wait until these kids are asleep and you play with my star you can feel how heightened I am when it shatters. However Taylor it is such an addictive high, you might not feel it anywhere else and baby I do not want you chasing highs." She thought for a second. "However i have a solution," she said as she stood up. "I could," she paused a second. "Show you a ritual." She turned and looked at those kids a second as she doubled the protection around them. Also again, a triple layer would be enough to keep them safe so that their mothers would not come after her. "I need you to be blue for it to work though so the choice really is yours." "Also you should note that no ritual is complete until you know sex but since you are on a cleanse this is just for fun and no real consequences." She nodded. "Hm, on second thought you can stay not blue. Human and Human should work fine." She needed to make sure he also understood one last thing. "There is also a slight chance that since I soul tied us, we could literally become half of the other one. We would look like we do and still be us but we would be half and half. You would look like and be you but have small amount of me that come through when you talk and in your feelings. Example, how angry you got earlier with the harem. I would feel the same, example my extra calmness around Madison." Dr. Taylor Quinzell

"Cami," he said. "Don't care about all of that. I know what we are doing and what might happen I would just like to see you as the world will now come to know you." He had noticed it with Star the most. The movements, the alertness. The flinching could only mean one thing. "Baby I am sorry that birthing our daughters changed you, but I am not sorry that the water calls to you now. I am sorry that it scares you but your body now it's yours forever isn't it?" That blue girl he'd fallen in love with, she was gone but it was okay because this woman, this woman he loved right back. He'd felt her grow through the emotional pain. "You're my first oddity to human plus interaction Cami. I've felt your body's change, I've felt your emotional change and when your blueness dripped into me I knew then that oddity I fell in love with had given her everything for our daughters and in her place now stood the same woman physically, but changed from oddity to human plus. That's why you soul tied us. Cami, come on, I'd like to spend time with my human plus siren for why else would I bring you to all this water?" "Thank you for soul tying us but Cami, baby I'm not going anywhere." Choose Me. "Choose you right? I am choosing you, this human siren version of you with that star that I wish you would stop hiding." Dr. Cami Q.- Cartersqqqqqueeeeeeeeeeeee, he's so happy XD

Choose me because I am changing. Choose me because I am the center of our children and I can not handle it. Choose me because I am not as strong as I look and choose me because I am broken and I need our love to regenerate my faith in our marriage. Choose the song because I will sing it by the sea for I am not a mermaid, I am a siren and I am scared. Choose me because our children are connected to you and on my weakest days, Taylor I will choose you. I will fight for you and I have literally given you my soul. Things she did not know how to say to him so she had to make the choice and she would do it all over again. "I didn't, I don't know how to say it so I had to soul tie us. Taylor I am scared so I needed you to pick me. I don't know what this is like but I do know that I am guiding my way and I am forever stuck in this body. Taylor our life has changed so fast that I just needed it to be us for one day. I knew you knew though." When he had touched the water. "Though you could have told Madison. My star was going crazy around her." At least it was out there between them now. She'd fill others in as she needed. "Want to go play in the water now?" she asked. "The baby sitting service here is open so we could leave the kids there for like an hour." Dr. Taylor Quinzellbam bam ! Siren's Star :
The user has a star permanently embedded on their forehead that pulls them towards the water. The user is a human but while in the water can feel the emotions of their partner through the waves that wash over their body. This connection only deepens with touch and time spent with said partner.
The more that the user keeps their star hidden, the more they lose control over their emotions and the harder that their emotions come to handle. The siren is beautiful but dangerous. Approach with extreme caution.

Still deleriously happy but at least she was finally being honest with him. He slowly nodded making sure that he understood it so that he could help her with anything. "Yes I do, let's get the kids settled first." Fucking hell he was too hot to be driving a van but he did need one. None the less once the kids were settled and they were back out at the water he looked at her. "Hey!" he said as he tapped her on the forehead. "Wait, I got this part," he said as he took a minute scrunch her nose. He had no idea why he just thought it was cute. "I vow to love my siren," he said as he went to go touch her star and then stopped. "Hmm," he said as he looked at her. "Wait, again please," he said as he backed up. He put his hands up above his head, apart and spoke to her. "Ready?" He was going to help her walk through this and in return she was going to help him take care of his brood, all in time. They just had to get on the same page which was about to finally happen he hoped. "Put your hands in mine and let the feel of the water guide you." Dr. Cami Q.- Carter

Him and his hands. She looked at him and sighed as she watched his hands. "Okay, but you asked for it," Her star flickered and she kept her eyes on him as she put her hands in his. "The feel of the water?" she asked and then nodded. "Oh right." Water was it's own melody washing over us constantly cleaning us. It had the power to transfer us from a bad moment or a bad day to a different place where we could even if just for a second escape it. However it also burned when we cried tears, when it got too hot. Then at least to her the most important thing that it did was exactly what Taylor had did. Reflect. She dragged him towards the water and pulled him in behind her. She turned to face him once they were in the water and put her head against his chest as the star broke, the pieces going over and into Taylor's skin as she held onto him. "Now when my star breaks," she said as she watched the pieces scatter along his body. "You can feel that too." This marriage was for life. "Don't scream Taylor, the pain will pass in a minute." She sighed. "I love you and I know you love me but if you ever cheat on me again, I will drown you and when we get back home, you're going to be a good boy okay? The star pieces are going to make sure of it." Dr. Taylor Quinzell

He had read about sea witches and creatures alike so he what he was walking into but he did not expect her to put those star pieces into his skin. His breath immediately caught as he fell backwards into the water and his body floating around her. He was not going to drown for he could swim but the effects of the star pieces did have him winded. "CAMI!" he said as the feelings of her anger surged through his body. "You fucking bitch," he said as he got himself up, feet first in the water. He shoved her into the water and got out. Ouch it hurt so bad, like constant spikes that he was not used to. "Stay the fuck away from me," he said as he hit the ground. He always been used to being the dominant one in the relationship and this was no longer that. He could feel the star pieces trying to pull themselves together and form on his own forehead. "Take it out Cami." I read about sea witches, I'm in trouble.Dr. Cami Q.- Carter

Fuck that harem. Taylor had pissed them off and there was no one going to stop her from delivering her wrath to him. Sure she'd kiss him later and they'd make up but first he was going to submit to her. She felt herself shoved and she slowly made her way out of the water. "I would Taylor but how many times did you cheat on me? Baby, no. Four kids Taylor and I know you did not think you were going to get off scott free?" Men and their need to think that women did not get what they were owed. She went and stood over him and spoke as she sat down on him and put his hands up above his head. "NO I WILL NOT TAKE IT OUT. YOU HAVE BEEN BAD AND WE ARE GOING TO FIX IT." She was going to break him, shatter him and then she was going to put him back together so that he would be the husband that she deserved. It was her favorite part. "Don't fight me on this Taylor, you know it's hot." It was kind of hot and so terrible. "Want to play the connect the dots with your star pieces?" Dr. Taylor Quinzell

"My dick has never been softer in any situation like this," he said as she was sitting on him. Had he been bad sure was this the type of punishment he expected, hell no. "Cami I am literally not fighting you on anything because that would just turn your crazy ass on or something." Connect the what now. He slid off from under her. "Get your fat ass off of me," he said. Er Mah Gawd! He was going to need some deep therapy once they were done, maybe they'd do it together. "Take it out now or I am going to headbutt you," he said as her anger flushed over him again. "This is not funny," he said as he turned and ran. "I need to find Star," he said as he tried to remember how to get to the day care. His wife was a fucking batshit siren and he had to keep it together. He finally got to the daycare and spotted his kids as he looked back for Cami. "Be right back guys," he said as he took a second to sigh. He had no choice he was going to have to stab her. Geez it made sense what the girls had been saying. "I need a knife," he said. He was about to stab her, with no regrets. Dr. Cami Q.- Carter

Fat? Fat Where! She took a minute to stomp her foot as this man gave chase and she shrugged as she tapped her star. "Oh don't hurt the kids Taylor," she said as she followed him. "Knife?" She tapped her forehead and blew on the star pieces watching it form a small knife as she made her way up to him. "Here you go," she said. "You don't have it in you to stabe me Taylor," she said as she put the knife up against his chest. "I took your balls long ago Mr. Quinzell," she said as she stood in front of him.

Carter taught his children well and he had order over them as he sighed. He also had no problem as he stabbed Cami right in the middle of her back, catching her as she fell over. "I told you the cavern did something to her. Listen to me next time, now what are we going to do?" He was not protecting Cami, he was researching Cami and protecting Taylor. "Taylor she's made a lot of enemies and if you take her back then we have to hide her." He hated hiding people but he had to fix that star on her forehead. "So are we really taking your wife back and hiding her in her cavern and hoping no one notices?" He was going to have to double up on his medicine. Dr. Taylor QuinzellDr. Cami Q.- Carter
