Divided We Fall

[Alice The Necrofox]

"Heh, you can create fire too?" Griffin was making small talk.
"Wow, what can't you guys do?"

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal rolled over, mewling slightly.... unlike Lane sleep had come as soon as her eyes closed.... flicking her tail subconsciously twice she curled up, breathing quietly....

[Mystique]

"they cant shut up" Rachel woke up slowly. She was so tired but didn't know why. "ok, my turn to take watch, dont bother saying no" she got up and walked over to the entrance, "if i fall asleep wake me up asap!"

[Alice The Necrofox]

((Hey! You're back on!))

"Okay! Your the boss!"
He sits next to the entrance near Rachel.
"So, how are you feeling."

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal rolled over, snuffling in her sleep.... staying curled up she dreamed of nothing, merely the dark warmth of sleep.... her tail flicked twice and then was still again as she opened her eyes and yawned widely.... stretching she yawned again, every joint in her body cracking.... lying on her side she listened to the sound of Griffin and Rachel talking....

[Mystique]

((for a little while, yeah))

"i am sleepier than usual but apart from that, im pretty good" Rachel shrugged and looked out the cave entrance. she missed her home. she thought about how Lireal and Lane must feel and looked at Lireal "how is she holding up?"

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal turned over, and looked over to Rachel, forcing a half-hearted smile..
"I'm fine.... just a bit of rest and i'l be back to my usual self..."
She lay back against the cave wall, tail flicking in impatience..... she was not the kind of person who liked sitting around waiting all the time.... and if it wasnt for the fact her rib could fracture again if she wasnt carefull, she would have already been up and out of the cave...

Pushing herself up into a sitting position Lireal felt across her rib for swelling or inflaming... even this small moment of movement was hard and painfull, but she was pleased  to know that she could move without breaking anything...

Lane stood up abruptly and walked toward the cave entrance.  After sniffing the air for a moment he simply walked out and began walking in the direction of a spring in the forest.  Of course he did this without saying anything, as he didn't feel the need too.

[Alice The Necrofox]

"Aaand lane is walking out on his own accord. Seems like him. You think we should go with him?"

[KittKat chunky~]

"Nah..... if he's gone he's gone.... but hopefully he wont leave us.... maybe he just wanted to be alone for a while?..."
Lireal pushed herself up onto two feet with the help of the cave wall... she gritted her teeth in pain as she did so... but managed to stand up, even if her balance was a bit shaky....

Taking a few tentative steps she walked over to the entrance of the cave and sat down beside Griffin and Rachel, the cool breeze from outside calming....

[Alice The Necrofox]

"You know, that fur looks really cool... what i wonder is how you guys evolved into a species that is so diverse..." he said, looking at Lireal's fur.

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal looked up at Griffin, smiling she looked down at her silver fur..... "Well... you know thats exactly what i thought when i first saw humans.... so much variation, from country to country...."

She smiled, tail flicking... talking had made her completely forget about the pain in her rib, she sat up, watching Griffin with interest...
"you say it looks cool... to me my fur is nothing special... to me your the interesting and... 'cool'... one..."
She smirked, the pain in her side nothing more than a slight twinge...

Lane wasn't in the forest long before he heard a noise to his left.  As he looked, he noticed that it was a male deer, otherwise known as a Buck.  It was breathing heavily and preparing for a charge.  Apparently Lane was trespassing or the Buck saw him as a challenger that he could beat down to impress some ladies, but as Lane looked around it became obvious that it was territorial.  Lane sighed as he positioned himself correctly, grabbing onto a low branch behind him, he prepared himself to lunge.

The Buck raced forward, antlers out front, ready to stab Lane as it got close.  On the last possible second Lane used the branch's leverage to throw himself sideways as the buck ran right into the tree.  Unfortunately the Buck's head was harder than it was supposed to be for the plan to work, and it prepared itself for another attack.  Lane's eye twitched in annoyance at the creature's determination.  This time he faced the Buck as it ran toward him, but this time Lane grabbed the antlers head on, getting a cut on his middle finger.  After being pushed back a few feet, Lane dug his claws into the ground, and began pushing back, eventually gaining enough of an advantage to flip the buck on it's side.  Afterwards he singed the buck's fur to make it afraid so that it would flee and tell its friends to avoid him.  Nature's a (beep)

"Heh, the skin you mean. Eh, it's pretty normal around here. Some people fight over which color of skin is better, but i tend to leave that in the past. I would trade you, fur for skin. It's been a fascination for me sort of."
He looked into nothing
"Heh, there is a whole group of people like me. We are called Furries."

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal listened to Griffin with interest, her head cocked slightly to one side in a curious pose...
"This... group... could you explain it a little to me?... what do you mean fascination, youve only seen my kind today...."
She flicked her tail in curiosity, her pain in the rib forgotten now...
