"This is the way up?"
JohnWayne looked at his Keeper, then back at the road, then back at Cynara, then back at the road. The road bent at a ninety degree angle, straight up into the air. The road they were now standing behind, staring up at.
"No offense, but are your sure your power's working?"
"You let him talk like that?"
"Oh, thanks." He glared at his... at Pellinore, who was glaring right back at him.
"Boys." Cynara sounded mostly amused. Good. JohnWayne wasn't really fond of her angry. "Yes, Pellinore. He's never tried to blow up anything of mine."
"You kidnapped me."
"Dude." Was this guy for real? "She kidnaps everyone."
"Not everyone, JohnWayne."
"Enough people. A guy a year for how long...?"
"And when I accosted your father, the world had not yet ended. I didn't particularly have a reputation for kidnapping people, outside of my own pack. And he was angry."
"...I suppose. But why wouldn't you let me question you?"
"I'm also not in my mid-twenties anymore. We all grow up." She aimed a pointed look at Pellinore. JohnWayne almost pitied his father. Almost. "Most of us, at least. Now. This way." She began walking forward, as if she was going to walk herself right into the road/wall.
"Cya...!" JohnWayne reached for her. She caught his hand and kept walking towards the underside of the road. "Cya, this isn't funny, please don't hurt your... oh." Her body leaned backwards, first at a 45-degree angle to the ground, and then, as she stepped onto the road, at a 90-degree angle. "Oh."

From this, they're about to walk up the upturned underside of the road. That could become awkward.
Typo: "She kidnaps everyone"
