Divided We Fall

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal looked over at Griffin from where she sat and nodded... getting up with some difficulty she walked over to the cave entrance and sat down, cross legged, tail swishing behind her..... she watched outside the cave, as well as the two human inhabitants with curiosity... rubbing her thigh where Lorazys had caught her a particularly powerfull blow she winced.....
"you can sleep, i'l wait for Lane to return..."

"Thanks... I guess you guys are more like us than I first thought..."
He turned his head over, and fell asleep.

He dreamed he was one of them... he had orange fur on his arms which ended in black fur around his hands... he looked at himself, and he saw the human in him, as well as this new species. He looked over at Rachel, who was standing near him, in awe. He went over to comfort her, but she vanished. Lane was in the dream too, he was small, and looking up at the one who attacked them, shaking his tiny fist. Suddenly he grew bigger, and bigger, until he could challenge the monster. Then, everything went dark. All he could see was his fur, and a small, human sized light in the distance...

Lireal smiled despite herself and her current situation... she watched Griffin as he turned over and started to snore... smirking she turned back to watching oustide the cave, moonlight reflected off her silver fur and gave her strength, like a warmth in her heart.... she turned her attention to the now ruined clothes that she was wearing, Lorazys numerous blows had torn the shirt in several places, and blood was spattered across it..... brilliant.....

Lorazys continued through the woods in search of subject 1, when her stomach let out a huge growl. She stopped dead in her tracks and checked her pack, empty. She sighed and started sniffing around and paying close attention to any and all sounds. Lorazys stayed close to the ground and moved briskly and quietly. Suddenly, she heard something about 100 meters to her right. She followed the sound and picked up the scent of something marvelous. Lorazys followed her nose and discovered a white tailed deer. She had no idea what kind of animal it was, but it looked appetizing. Lorazys moved even slower, stalking her prey, and at the last minute, lept up and pounced on her little prize. Her  animal instincts kicked in and she ravaged the poor animal, not even allowing it to scream.

Rachel woke up when she heard someone snoring. She turned over to see it was Griffin, shook her head then looked over to see who was on watch out now. When she saw Lireal, she suddenly felt bad for her, so she got up and tip-toed over to her "hey, i'll take over for you. You should really take it easy, do you want or need anything?"

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal almost screamed in fright when somone spoke behind her, and settled down again when she saw it was Rachel...

"no im okay... i do not normally sleep much anyway, and i do not mind... thank you for the gesture anyway"

She looked up at Rachel and smiled, shifting so she was sitting cross legged she winced slightly...

"well actually... im kind of in need of new clothes.... after that fight... but that can wait, thank you for asking"

[Mystique]

"that's fine do you mind if we chat then? i dont think Mr. Snore-alot has got anything to say at present" she giggled then looked over at Griffin. he was kinda cute when he was sleeping ... huh? ok move on ... "so what's it like where you come from, or is that a secret?"

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal nodded, shifting aside so Rachel could sit down as well, she looked over at Griffin and laughed softly...

"well.... it looks different.... but we arent actually as different as i thought..... despite the.... obvious visual differences....

She leant against a large rock, watching Rachel and every now and then Griffin...

"you know i learnt English for a long time, this is the first time ive had to use it properly....it must be so wierd for you... this other species..... but yeah, everything here is so new... so different, its all beautifull..."

[Mystique]

Rachel sat down beside her and smiled "i dont find it that weird to be honest, sure you're more powerful and closer to immortal than us, but like you said, we're not that much different" she looked out the cave and thought about what Lireal said about the planet being beautiful "I guess I forgot how beautiful the place was. I come down here just to get away from everything and everyone. i'm not much of a social person" Rachel shrugged and looked around the cave

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal smiled weakly, wincing slightly as she shifted her leg she stared out of the cave entrance into the starlit forest....
"we are even more alike than i thought.... i was always said to be quiet and shy.... though i did not mind, during the night, with the moon and the stars, i can never be alone..."

She looked back at the still snoring Griffin who had turned over onto his back...

"he really does snore a lot doesnt he?" she laughed quietly to herself, tail flicking....

[Mystique]

"ye i know, doing my head in now" she laughed as she went over and shook him gently, "that should do it for a while" Rachel went back over to Lireal and sat down again "i prefer to be on my own most of the time, listening to music, writing and drawing mainly. i dont know how i wound up friends with Griffin,"

[KittKat chunky~]

Lireal laughed softly as Rachel sat down again...

"so... you two are... close, friends?"

she looked between her and Griffin, curiously, leaning back against the cave wall at the entrance...

Lane appeared at the cave entrance with a few leaves in his hand, with some cooked rabbit within them.
"The creatures on this planet are... agile." he managed to say before he fell over with a thump, unable to move anything.  He had alot of trouble trying to catch the rabbits, even for his unnatural speed, they could turn and hide in their burrows, but he managed to throw some fire down one of the holes and toasted a few.  He made a mental note to not try and hunt them ever again.

"No, no, no way..." Carol huffed. The painful feeling at last lifted from her mind, bringing with it a wave of tingles and jitters. She had seen the whole thing, from the start, frozen in place...she had watched as her boy was taken away in the arms of that thing. Not being able to do a thing about it.

.....Just watching.

The woman fell heavily to her knees, defeated by emotion. She glanced over at the man, the one who looked like a soldier, her eyes glossed over. She could barely see him from where he was in the living room, glancing at her family photos. "You'd really help me? What am I supposed to do anyway?" she begged.

"Yes... I'll help you... as for what you should do, take a deep breath, count to ten, and then ask me that question again when you've calmed down" Charles said, standing up.
The calming down part he had to recite from memory, part of the program the CIA put him through to make sure he was the man for the job.

The push made Griffin shift, and mumble.
"Okay... okay... no more snoring it is.... you two..."
He turned over, and went right on sleeping.
