Aura growled dangerously when Daryla tried to bite Laura and lost it the muscles in her legs bunching up as she prepared to leap at him her teeth bared. She tried to fight it though knowing she was supposed to be trying to control her anger failing miserably she let out a growl and lept at the boy trying to knock him to the ground.

"Riki! Can you here me?" Kamlyn yelled patting his back trying to make him spit out the water. "Riki, wake up!"

Celeste smiled humorlessly and nodded in agreement with what Erick said about the escape, then smiled, "Thanks," she said quietly as Erick said hrs be happy to hear her play, "But I'll probably be awful."

((Sorry this is so bad I'm just not in the mood at all...))

Celor hesitated. "No, don't bite. I won't bite you either." He said. "And no my brother try to bite you." He didn't go away. He sat down on the floor in front of Alessandra. "No scared. No need to be." He said. Moril was staying quiet again, but he still couldn't trust Alessandra fully.

Anti-Ven thought for a while, but shook his/her head then. "Master ordered me to stay quiet about it." Anti-Ven said then. "Though I am also ordered to hide this form hybrid and human form from others if Master doesn't order otherwise." He/she blinked his/her deep blue eye, but turned around then planning to leave. Anti-Ven knew that Master would hurt him/her when he/she was back, but it didn't matter for Anti-Ven. It was okay. They had already hurt him/her enough that he/she had found the way to bear it. Anti-Ven still glanced at Elysia again then. "I don't think so... I would like to be free, but it isn't possible."

Darlya growled at Carter when heard what she was talking about. His sharp wolf's fangs were bared. But his attention turned back to Aura when she leapt towards him growling. Darlya's wolf maybe was smaller than white lion, but it was fast. He avoided Aura's attack jumping aside and heading his own fangs towards Aura's behind leg in order to cut her tendons and make her crippled. Wolf instinct told him to do so. Even though his "otherself" didn't like this wolf part, it had to agreed that wolves were great hunters and knew better.

The first Riki didn't do anything, but started to cough water out from his lungs then and tried to breath. He had tried to kill himself, but his surviving instinct didn't agreed with his will. It struggled to stay alive and made him try to survive from drowning. He couldn't see Kamlyn or even realize that she was there. Only thing what he was able to think was get out of the water and he scrambled away from bathtub and fell to the floor on to his side. He curled up coughing and gasping.

(Foo my FOo? Let's just say Jakka and Peter went back to the tent and feel asleep since you forgot about Peter. Ya?)

Alessandra whimpered. "Who to trust, where to hide, there's no real way to decide." She sniffed. "I want...I want...I want to go..." She stuttered, interrupted as her stomach made hungry noises. She gave an upset wail, burying her face in her hands. She was confused, tired, and hungry. She wanted to eat and sleep at the same time. "I want to go to bed."

[Wari♥]

((*hugs Raven* I missed you!!))
Elysia nodded. "Well, here you don't have to hide it at least. At least one person knows you in this form, right?" She said with a smile. "If you would like to be free, maybe there is some way I could help you?" She asked, stepping forward. "I mean, it would be easier in a few months when I come back to the military, then I'd be there and have some influence..." She started, not really knowing where she was going with this.


Adam gasped when Aura and Darlya started attacking each other but he knew he couldn't do anything about it. "Stop!" He yelled, then growled to himself, kneeling where Laurel was. "Here, I'm not busy." He said, taking the bandage lightly from her hand. "It'll take just a second. Carter." He said, looking up at the girl. "Could you try to stop them? That'd be really helpful, I'll help you in a minute, kay? Then, soup with meat would be nice." He said, with a smile, adding on to her little joke. Then he turned back to Laurel and started wrapping her arm carefully. "Sorry if this hurts, I'm trying to hurry so it won't be that good..." He mumbled, mostly to himself.


Erik smiled and shook his head. "Nahh you'll be great, I guarantee it!" He said hopefully, then turned at the noises in the kitchen. "What the hell do you think is going on in there, jeez!" He said, his eyes growing concerned, wishing he could get up and check it out.

[Fauna]

Carter cracked her knuckles and neck. "Here we go." She walked over to the two and stepped between them. "Stop!" She yelled facing Daryla. "Back off right now and we will leave you alone." She looked at Aura. "Go into the living room; now please." She pointed toward the door with her chin. Carter glanced at Daryla. "And you, back away and take it easy." She sniffed the air. "Domestic Canine v. Wild Wolf; That'd be one fight."

Laurel winced and nodded. "That's fine... I just want it protected so it can heal. It doesn't have to be perfect." She said biting back a cry of pain. "Just get that thing out of here, ok?" She asked with pure fear and sadness in her eyes. Laurel looked down at her arm as it was wrapped up. Sometimes she yelled out in pain but she was pretty good at hiding it behind her clenched teeth.

(Do you want him to wake up Ally?)

[Desdomena]

Aura twisted with a growl pulling her leg out of reach of his claws and rounding on him almost tackling Carter when she stepped between them. She shook her head with a dark growl as she snarled anger coursing through her. She crouched slightly but she couldn't attack with Carter in the way.

Kamlyn gave a sigh of relief as he coughed out the water, "Riki it's okay I'm here," she said scooting over to him and trying to make him sit up and pat his back trying to get more water out of his lungs. "It's okay just breathe."

Celeste looked toward the kitchen and frowned trying to get up for a moment but her body quickly informed her she wasn't getting off the couch. She looked back at Erick, "Sounds like some kind of fight." she said worriedly.

[RavenGuardian]

((o.o missed Raven?))

"Well... If we just continue slowly... Building friendship and our trust to each other." Celor suggested and smiled faintly. He tilted his head when heard Alessandra's stomach growling, but hesitated when she said that she wanted to go sleep. He wondered what they should do, but then Moril stepped forward and held out his hand towards Alessandra. "Where you usually sleep? We can help you there and go to search food for you then. Even hunting if it is needed." He said, but sounded still a little unsure. Celor stood up too and held out his own hand towards Alessandra.

Anti-Ven's aother ear twitched a little, but then he/she just nodded again. "I don't know and I see you aren't sure either was you are doing." Anti-Ven said. He/she tought about while, but turned towards Elysia again then. His/her dog ears pointed up when he/she was listening and his/her only eye turned to looked at those houses behind trees. Anti-Ven stayed like that for a while, but glanced at Elysia then. "I can guard you before you find place to stay over the night." He/she suggested and shifted into his/her dog form, one-eyed, three legged malamute.

Leonai had got what he had wanted. Girls, fight and he had drank like a luffa. Now he was just leaning to Adam's car outside of the pub trying to figured out which one of those many grips of those car doors was the real one. It wasn't easy task because grips were also moving. Leonai cursed and gave up (what was odd for him). He sat down to the ground next to the car. His cat ears were pressed. Yea, yea... I will go soon... hmm... after I am rest for while. He licked blood away from his lips because he had got hit to side of his eyepatch eye. The reopened wound there also was bleeding a little.

When Aura just pulled her leg away out of his reach, Darlya just tried quickly attack again, but ended up backing farther when Carter was suddenly there stopped him. He snarled at her and crouched too to telling Carter that he wouldn't care if he had to fight with Carter too. Then he launched himself forward with fierce gaze in his deep blue eyes, but in the middle of attack he suddenly halted and whimpered. White wolf shook his head and started to walk a circle growling and didn't looked at Carter or Aura or anyone else. It just walked circle, fangs occasionally snapping air as if the wolf had tried to bite something invisible, but didn't know where it was. He didn't stopped walking not even for a moment. The truth actually was that wolf was fighting inside his mind. His growling mixed to whining suddenly and the wolf walked into the closest corner and crouched down there and shifted into Darlya's hybrid form. "What they have done to me?! Why they did it?!" He cried and raised his hand to press down his wolf's ears and stayed curled in the corner facing the wall. "I don't want this! Take it away!" He continued crying. The aggressive tone of his voice slowly changed Darlya's more gentle voice and he didn't growled anymore at all. "Hurt me... why they hurt me...? Mom? Mom?! Where are you mom?!" He cried. His deep blue eyes stared at the wall but that cold gaze gone. His eyes were absent again... and he was crying.

Riki continued coughing water out of his lungs and weakly struggled against Kamlyn's grip of him before he started to recognize her and realize what had happened. His coughing slowly changed to just gasping when he tried to regain normal breathing. "Be- beloved Kam... Kamlyn... I... I..." He tried to say, but closed his eyes then and just pressed his forehead against Kamlyn's shoulder. His wet hair and skin wet Kamlyn's clothes. His wings were still there, hanging from his back to the wet floor. Riki was very exhausted and his body started to shiver soon, but at least he was breathing also normally again.

((Need to get Demyse somewhere again -.-'))

(*latches onto Raven happily* :D)

Alessandra looked around, slightly confused. She whimpered. "I...wait...don't...don't know. I sleep...sleepies...here?" She looked around again, and saw the couch. That would be a suitable place, if a bit cramped. She pointed at it. "There, there, there. There it goes, there it stays, there it hides, there it plays." Hesitantly, she decided to trust these two, and placed her hands in theirs. "Sleep...and it cooks...turns to food..." She was touched that they would hunt for her. Out there, when she was alone, if she had hurt her leg like this she definitely would have died.

(...and nah Foo don't wake him up. We need to transition to night time anyway. Then we can TIME SKIP~)

[Wari♥]

Erik nodded, turning around to look at the kitchen door. It was wide open but he could only see shadows (make sure to count them Erik. You don't want 2). "That's sure what it sounds like. Great, that's just what we need, more fighting, right? I guess that's what happens when you put a whole bunch of teenagers in one house or something." He said, leaning on his guitar.

Elysia smiled, still hugging herself to try and keep warm. It was almost winter and already the breeze was quite cold. "Yes, that ...that would be nice. Especially with...whoever that was running around still. He came out of no where, I had no time to react. I'm afraid I'm a little off my game lately...Shall we go then." She said, turning behind her as if something would be lurking in the shadows.

Adam focused on his work, wincing every time Laurel seemed to be in pain. "Almost done, I promise. Then we can get out of the kitchen..." He said, biting his lip as he focused. Finally, he finished wrapping it up good and tight, though it wasn't perfect. "There, you're done, it's wrapped. Come with me, we'll get you out of here. I'll be right back Carter." He said, looking at Darlya, confused. "Le..let's go..." He said, standing.

[Fauna]

Carter nodded. "Alright... er... mood swings." She said looking at Daryla. Her ears twitched and her nails slowly turned into claws. "Hmph.... Strange kid." She noted with a snarl. Carter stood cross armed watching as the kid cried. She would have been supportive but he had just tried to pick a fight. She bit her lip and looked away still having a heart that was too weak to watch. Carter shook her head. "Madness..."

Laurel got to her feet and nodded. "Yeah, let's go." She touched the wrapping and grinned. "You did fine. It's better than what I could have done." She looked toward the living room. "I'll... I'll be in there. You deal with him." She limped toward the living room and walked through the door. "Erik?" She asked quietly. "Can I come in here and sit?" She asked after speaking before.

[Desdomena]

Aura blinked her pale blue eyes in suprise when Darlyastopped confusing coursing through her. Her animal self was telling her it was her chance but her human self held her back from attack and instead she slunk around Carter her muscles tense but sensing the fight was over. She stopped beside Darlya and she shrunk becoming a thin albino girl again her tail twitching in confusion her ears back as she crouched beside him. "Shh it's okay,," she said reaching out and wiping his tears with a small hand. She was confused as heck but she could tell this Daryla wasn't a threat.

Kamlyn patted his back gently letting him press against her doing her best to comfort him. She reached over sagging a towel and wrapping it around him with one hand. "There there its okay Riki." she said softly not wanting to distress him. She payed no mind to him wetting her clothes, it wasn't like she wouldn't dry out.

Celeste looked up as Laurel came in and gave her a small smile. She adjusted her wings slightly trying to straighten up. "What's going on in there?" she asked too curious to not ask.

[RavenGuardian]

"There on the couch? Fine... we help you there... But that Adam-guy should do something to this... house... I mean, now people just need to sleep on the chairs and around the floors." Moril hissed. Moril, he is probably doing his best. He can use magic to make more beds to this house. Twins helped Alessandra to the couch then. "There. You can rest now." Celor said to Alessandra. "So should we hunt now?" Moril asked. "Maybe we should ask Adam first." Celor suggested.

Anti-Ven wagged his/her tail slightly. The earlier chimera had been very insane and it had the scent of scientists and lab. Anti-Ven didn't know what had happened and he/she wasn't even interested about it. He/she wanted just forget that scent. Anti-Ven shook him/herself and started to limp towards those houses that he/she saw. Unfortunately the house was some kind of pub and he/she saw someone outside of it sitting on the ground next to the car. Well, Anti-Ven wasn't interested about the person even if he was flagrantly a chimera too and cat-like one. Anti-Ven planned to continue further.

Darlya's eyes just stared at the wall if he had seen there something else than just worn wallpaper. Maybe he did, with eyes that had distant look in them. He glanced at Carter a little when the girl said word "madness". He whimpered quietly and turned his gaze to approaching white lion then and he pressed himself more tightly against the wall. He moved his hands from his wolf ears to press his legs against his skinny chest. He really seemed to be scared even if Aura shifted away from her lion form. He startled a little when she wiping away his tears. "You aren't them? You didn't do this? Who are you?" He asked quietly. "No hurting me... please... Don't take me back there... He promised they won't hurt us, but they did." He pressed his head again hugging himself still. Then it seemed that he fell back deep into his dreamworld. His eyes got even more distant look. "Where is mom? Who is my mom? I can't remember... I can't remember anything...Why, mom? Why dad is hitting him with the chair? He is my brother! Mom, stop him. Why don't you? Brother? Brother, where is mom and dad? Gone? What does it mean they are gone?" Darlya's eyes stared at the wall again. "Yes... always... only two of us... We can't trust others. There is only us." He whispered then, but he had forgotten it and he forgot it again, forgot his brother again. "Pink petals are very pretty. Aww I want to see them."

For a while Riki just was too exhausted to care anything and be ashamed. But when he got a little his strength back and managed to clear his thoughts more, he raised his head away from Kamlyn's shoulder and was more than grateful about the towel. He made his wings disappear and quickly wrapped the towel better around himself. "I... I am very sorry... "He said quietly then, but couldn't look at Kamlyn into eyes. When he finally raised his gaze it wasn't Kamlyn that he watched. It was the mirror on the wall. He saw his reflection, very feminine looking person with sad and scared wide eyes, only towel around his slim body. He couldn't help the fact that he kept himself beautiful and loved himself, so he was frightened the fact that he had tried to kill himself... and this wasn't the first time.

(SHORT POST. :D ALL MY CHARRIES ARE SLEEPING.)

Alessandra looked at the two, her eyes grateful. "No one...no one makes nice...to the darkness...it makes it light." She closed her eyes, humming a happy little tune to herself. Her spider eyes still stared out, creepy, and she could see in black and white, see the twins standing there. But it slowly faded away, and she began to sleep.

[Wari♥]

Erik nodded, gesturing to the other side of the couch (which probably wouldn't be good since it was covered in his blood), the piano bench, or an armchair on the other side of the couch. "Anywhere you can find, come on in." He said, nodding to Adam as he came in after Laurel. "So...what's going on in there?" He echoed Celeste, his eyes turning on Adam, who shrugged.
"Darlya went mad for a bit, it's over now. He apparently has a mighty fiesty personality hidden under there." He said with a shake of his head. "I better go back in there, how are you guys doing?" He asked, looking at Celeste as well as Erik shrugged his answer. "Please, if there's anything I can do. We kind of need to heal pretty quickly, that guy Leonai said he saw soldiers, Rodel soldiers, looking for us. If they find us now we'd be defenseless." He said, worried. "And if you want to sleep, you can, there's lots of guest rooms, plus my old room, though someone small will have to sleep there." He said with a laugh, as his bed was built for an eight-year-old.

Elysia narrowed her eyes, crouching to the ground. "Who is that? He smells like animal, but like a human too..." She whispered, still not used to her new canine scenting skills. "Is he a chimera?" She asked, turning her gaze on Anti-Ven. "There are chimeras all over, right? Hidden among the people like I will be?"

[Fauna]

Laurel saw the blood on Erik's cough and didn't really care, she too was covered in the stuff already. Her feet slowly made their way over to the couch. "Yeah, what Adam said." Laruel looked down at her arm and sighed. The sigh turned into a weak laugh. "Hey guys... we made it out." She said as if realizing it all of a sudden. Her eyes shut for a second as she rested her mind then they opened. "Lucky thing your brother was here Erik. I don't think half of us would have made it." She spoke quietly but surely as she leaned against the back of the cough.

Carter watched the kid and shook her head. "If you're trying to trick me you.." She sighed and her hands, which were in fist, uncurled. "You know: I am not one to give pity out at random." She spoke to the boy trying not to feel bad for the obviously insane chimera. "Yeah... No pity party going on here." She looked at the living room and then up at the ceiling. She had forgotten about Riki! She suddenly remembered. Carter's ears twitched impatiently.

[Desdomena]

Aura was at this point very confused but she just decided to accept the kid was cracked and try to help. She had seen plenty of crazies before escaping and she herself wasn't completely normal. She looked at Carter, "I think he's okay now." she said quietly. She held out a slightly clawed hand to Daryla, "You are okay right?" she asked not really expecting a lucid answer.

"It's okay no need to apologize," Kamlyn said pulling away slightly, not really comfortable with the whole comforting thing. She didn't really know that he had tried to kill himself at first but she sort of put two and two together. "Are you feeling better?" she asked in concern, meaning more physically then mentally.

Celeste let her eyes close as the others talked exhaustion going through her as she lay there. She opened her eyes at Laurel's words, "Yeah out," she said quietly with a sigh, so far being out hadnt meant too much since she could barely stay awake. She hoped things would get better as time went on but she felt like they would just get worse.

[RavenGuardian]

Twin looked at Alessandra and glanced at each other then when the spider girl fell asleep. She is sleeping. Should we still get food for her now...

And wake her up then again? Let her sleep. We can hunt tomorrow.

Yeah... Does your wound hurt?

A little. Mostly I am just tired.

Me too...

Twin shifted into their caracal forms and lied down on the floor in front of the couch where Alessandra was sleeping. There they were licking each other's fur, before pressed they head down and fell asleep. They didn't care about others or their voices.

Anti-Ven growled a little, but halted and looked at Elysia who had stopped closer to the cat chimera. He/she shifted away from the dog form after he/she had first looked around to make sure there was no one to see it. "I don't know... hmp... I think he reeks just drunkard." Anti-Ven said, sniffed and shook his/her head. "Yes, it is chimera and cat-like one. See his ears and tail. Seems like he doesn't even try to stay hidden." Anti-Ven snorted. Then he/she tilted his/her head a little for Elysia's question about other chimera. "I have heard rumors. Seem like they were real then." He/she sad and nodded towards Leonai. "Leave it there. If he is lucky, scientists or soldiers won't find him... or the insane chimera" Anti-Ven said coldly then. Cat chimera wasn't tall and seemed to be injured to his other eyes and head since there was bloodstained bandage. He had also some marks about fist fight. But it wasn't Anti-Ven's problem if the chimera got himself killed. Anti-Ven just waited that Elysia would agreed and just follow. The kid wasn't Elysia's problem either.

Darlya blinked his eyes pressing his wolf's ears down looking at Carter. "I won't do anything. I promise... I am good boy..." He whimpered. "I can't remember... I can't... " He whined then. Then he looked at Aura's hand when the girl held it out towards him again. The first he actually waited that Aura would slap him, so he startled and his eyes widened, but then he just started at the hand until his eyes got distant look again. He raised his wolf ears up and smiled happily. "I brought a cherry sapling with me. I wanted to take it to the peaceful place... I have taken good care of it." He said suddenly and wagged his tail. Then picked very small glass jar from his pocket. There was small holes on the top of it and inside the jar really was very start small sapling in dirt. "I can't remember where I got it... But it is important." He said dreamy. Luckily his "otherself" had kept it and not thrown it away. Even scientist had let him keep it. Darlya put the jar gently onto the floor in front of him and narrowed his eyes then as if he was about to fall asleep, but he quietly hummed the sinister song that he didn't remember to be his own.

Riki raised his hand a little trying to wipe tears away from his eyes. He nodded a little. "But my head still tries to kill me..." He said quietly. Actually also his back and chest felt odd, but didn't hurt much. "Maybe I just take some painkillers and go to sleep... Then everything will be fine again...Thank you for sa-saving me... " He reached his trembling hand towards his kimono. It wasn't very comfortable to wear torn and dirt clothes back, but he had nothing else and didn't believe that he could just walk around the house naked only towel around him. The thought almost got him smile even if he wasn't happy.

[Wari♥]

Erik smiled, watching Laurel, leaning forward on his guitar. "Yeah, we did. Look at us." He said with a little laugh. "As close to freedom as we'll get." He said, then looked at his brother. "It was a good thing you were here. How long-?" He started to ask, but Adam held up a hand. "Only a few days, actually. We just got here as well, by a lucky chance I guess. Though" He said, looking at them. "I think you guys would have been fine. You made it all the way here on your own, didn't you? Erik's probably just as good as I am, same blood and all." He said with a wink, leaning back against the door frame. "How are you feeling, brother? I'm not going to lose you too, am I?" He asked, and Erik shook his head. "I'm fine. I've got these two here to keep me company, and we're all gonna live." He said with a laugh, looking at Celeste. "Do you want a room? You look tired..." He said, concerned.


Elysia bit her lip, concerned for the chimera as she could see that he was hurt, but she turned away, facing Anti-Ven. "You're right, we should go. That chimera might be dangerous, especially if he's drunk. I agree, let's go." She said, and continued walking, her head ducked low as if no one would be able to see her. Actually she looked relitively normal, had anyone not known her before her eyes changed she'd be a usual teenager walking home from a friend's house.

[Fauna]

Laurel cleched her teeth in pain and nodded at Celestia. "You really do look tired." She said in a strained voice. Laurel looked back at the kitchen and sighed. Darlya was so innocent til that happened. He tried to hurt her... Unlike his brother, who had just been a bit too touchy feely with her. As much as she hated to think it, "We need Darlya's brother." She said to Adam. Her arm held close to her protectively. "He knows what this.. things deal is." She said sadly.

Carter bit her lip. "Yeah, I forgive you but I don't trust you." She looked at the plant and grinned. "It's very pretty. Aura could maybe take you outside to plant it, eh?" She asked pointed to the back door. "I need to talk to Adam anyway." She got a softer look on her face. "And I need to visit Riki." She said with her strong Scottish accent. "Aura, just holler if you are in trouble."
