    "Yeah, that's be good," Nova said gratefully. He got off his bed and sat down, picking up the soda and taking a swig. "You know," he said, "it's been a while since I've felt this uneasy about anything. It's like a whole new day of reckoning. But," he looked up at her, "we couldn't do this without you. I'm glad to have you with us this night..." He trailed off and continued to eat in silence.

Himawari looked down. She suddenly felt guilty, she didn't know why. Perhaps it was because she let her guard down for some time now. These creatures were different than her... Are different. She has been way too open towards them, but somehow... it did not feel wrong. She could finally open herself up to someone. The only one she really trusted was the leader. He had a strong will and good ideas on how to run a group and such a large operation. She admired that, but... Nova will always be a different species. They're not in the same boat, as the saying goes.
For all she knew, he was tricking her into becoming something convenient to catch the attention of the other humans and let her get caught, while they could run away with the loot.
Then again... thinking logically... humans would not hurt her. She was a fellow human afterall. And if they would indeed trick her, she could backstab them too by telling the humans their camp was being invaded.
All this went quickly though her mind as she drank some soda.
She sighed of relief when she came  to the conclusion that she was of more use than she thought she would be to these furry creatures.


Himawari saw Nova enjoy his food and drink, she smiled. "Glad you enjoy it."
She continued talking after she opened a bag of salty pretzels. "Here you go," she gave some to Nova.
"I must be honest towards you... before we go on this mission... There are some things you might need to know about me."
She paused for a while.
"First things first. I never really felt comfortable among your species since right after this whole... end of the world thing happened. Secondly..." She stopped, thinking if it would be wise to tell someone she recently met of her strange ''disease''.
"There is something about me I do not quite understand I I hope you think of me any less after I tell you this..."
She waited to hear of Nova's reply before even thinking of continuing.

    Nova munched on the pretzels and watched Himawari curiously. "Well you wouldn't be the first to feel uncomfortable around us and frankly I don't really blame you. Times have changed, and our kinds never were the best of friends in the first place." He paused as he popped another pretzel in his mouth. "But I want you to know you can trust me, and the rest of our little resistance. I don't know how much good saying that does, but I want you to know anyways. Now what's this second thing? You don't have to fear any response from me, unless it's something like you spontaneously combust in the presence of furs or something." He chuckled a little as he said this in a halfhearted attempt to brighten the mood.

Himawari sighed and repositioned herself. She was still sitting, but instead of on her knees, she spawled her legs in front of her and folded them, still leaning with her back against the wall.
She streched her arms and looked at Nova.

"Remember outside? When you... rescued me?" She reluctanlty said 'rescued' because she wasn't used to getting rescued at all.
"I don't know how else to say this, so I'm just going to say it as best I can. I don't understand it myself, but..." She paused for a second to build up the courage.
"Just after the meteors hit earth, I blackedout. Instead of changing into one of those monsters outside, I.. don't know how, but... I can sense them when they are near me or coming towards me. And sometimes... I feel the need to join them in one way or another. I cannot controll my body anymore. I just go numb and my vision blurrs. I had a similair experience some time ago, luckily someone else was able to save me too by chance. But it was worse than how it was now. I was actually about to attack that person. He took out the nearby Consumers and somehow that regained my consciousness. It felt like... I was one of them. I did not think about anything. Everything that lived, that moved, was a possible target. I had to... devour and consume, how ironic that last may sound. My vocabulary did not exist anymore, just one thought: consume. It was terrifying, yet at that time, in that moment... I enjoyed it. That terrifies me the most afterwards.
After that person destroyed the Consumers nearby and I regained the ability to think again and act normally, I actually had to have some short of rehabilitation. For a whole week I could not speak normal human words, just sounds, growls, etcetra. I was hungry all the time, at first, even still for human flesh. My dreams were nightmares and I was constantly plagued by becoming part of a whole again, becoming.. returning to them. In the begining of the dream I was scared, but a voice told me it was allright. When it went further, it scared me, but I couldn't escape. Well, untill I woke up of course."

Himawari felt a weight drop off of her. But now she was worried of what Nova might think or do to her, now that he knew what was really 'wrong'  with her.

    Nova sat in rather stunned silence, regarding Himawari with a serious stare. "Well," he said at length, "I'm glad you told me about this. It would have been horrible if we got in a battle and you... you know..." He sounded awkward and he knew it. He tried to put on a more professional tone. "Anyway, you clearly have control of your actions when you're not around them. So I'm not extremely worried about you. However, if you ever do have to engage them, and you have even the slightest suspicion that they might be influencing you, I want you to tell me right away so we can do whatever it takes to prevent something from happening. I can warn the others if you want, but I think it would probably be best to just keep this between you and me. You're already labeled as different, obviously, so the last thing we need is to paint any sort of a target on your back." He finished his pretzels. "But I certainly don't think any less of you. On the contrary, I think you were quite brave for telling me that, and I respect you for it." He sighed and looked out the window. It was almost completely dark now. Looking back at Himawari, he said, "Thank you very much for this food. I think it's time to get moving now though, we've got quite the night ahead of us."

Himawari was glad that Nova took it so well. In fact, more so than she could even have hoped for.
She smiled slightly and stood up, walking up to Nova she stuck out her hand. "Thank you," she said.


She turned back and started packing up the food and drinks. There  wasn't much left though, but the rest they could comsume later. She shudderd a bit at the thought.


When she was done and Nova had mentioned about moving on, Himawari looked at him again and nodded.
"You're right, we should. Once we get there, will you let me know how I can get in and when to throw the cannisters? And perhaps other things I should know? Oh! Before I forget, don't you forget to hand out the radios with headsets, or we'll have no way of communicating with eachother."
She grinned.

    Nova smiled and shook her hand. "No problem," he said.
   
    Once everything had been packed up, he grabbed his stuff and hoisted it in a backpack over his shoulder. His gunblade he holstered on his belt along with a few extra clips of ammo. "Haha, don't worry, I'll be sure to hand out the radios. I'll let you know when it's safe to proceed as soon as Jared and I deal with the snipers. We'll be in constant contact the whole time." He stepped forward out of the room and took one last look at the forlorn little place. Sighing, he looked at Himawari. "Well, shall we?" He started back down the stairs towards the others.

Ip stepped back a little, looking at Jared with disgust with his lack of patience and respect. Ip walked from the centre of the room, back over to his corner watching the small conflict between Jared and Nova who then walked over to talk to another fur. Looking around he decided that it would be best to get a bit more rest as nothing much seemed to be happening. Ip got up out of his corner and made his way up to the 3rd floor and walked down to the end of the corridor, to where there was a door. It had no sign of occupants from looking from the outside and so he opened the door and walked into the confines of the poorly lit room.

There were tiny bits of dust floating adrift the room, illuminated by the small rays of light that had managed to penetrate the window enforced by scraps of metal and rotting wood. Ip smiled with relief to find a place that was further away from the others and felt a bit more relaxed. Ip closed the door behind him and looked for the corner furthest away from the door. Ip placed his bag on the cold floor and slid down the wall into his new corner that had a strong shadow cast upon it. Ip felt alot more safer than he had when he slept in Nova's room, knowing he was less visible gave him comforting thoughts before closing his eyes to rest.

Luke hadn't slept. He almost never slept. His frantic quest to find his past seemed to have given him the ability to go on without rest. But sometimes, he crashed. When that happened, he tended to have terrible nightmares. Thenkfully, that hadn't happened, though he had almost nodded off a few times. He looked up and saw Nova coming down the stairs. He rose and fell in behind him, silently, like a ghost.

"Normal" is a word for something that doesn't exisit. It was created by those who don't challenge the status quo, and don't aspire to greatness.
Happiness is the way the Universe rewards those who face the hardships in their lives head on, with determination in their hearts.
Love is what binds us all together, what keeps us sane, makes us insane, holds the world and Universe together.
In my mind, it doesn't matter where you are going, where you've been, where you are, nor even the journey you're on. What matters is that you keep moving, no matter where you're going, where you've been, and where you are. Just keep moving.
I am White-Heart, white because it is every colour put into one, my heart is of all colours!

Sarah awoke from the light slumber that bitwise had laid its calming veil upon her. A sound was heard, she withdrew her thin legs and held them as close as possible to her warm body, and by doing so, taking shelter from the last shivers of light that illuminated the room on the third floor. Someone came in, walked around, closed the door and took rest in the opposing corner. Sarah held her breath until both lungs started to ache in symbiotic convulsion. When she had to exhale it was a slow and painful procedure, though it didn't last for the whole breath. After the initial shock she came to her senses, it was just another fur and not a monster from either past or present.


She did consider the possibility of sneaking out of the room... With the rattling bag of medicines she came here to sort. No, it was best to lay quiet, sunset would break at any moment and when everyone started moving she would simply place herself in the outskirts of the group. She sighed, trying to stay cool, biting her lower lip wondering who owned the silhouette that sat across.

    Nova walked into the gloomy lobby and looked around. Everyone was accounted for except... he did a double check to make sure he was correct. "Hm. Sarah and Ip aren't here?" he mused. He turned to Luke behind him. "Hey, did you happen to see anyone go upstairs or something? We're missing a couple people here and we really should get going now." All around him faces lit up with anticipation, or worry, or restlessness, or some other combination of emotion. He could feel the tense energy in the room.

Jared silently followed them, now carrying slightly more respect for the human girl.
"Well, I'm here," Jared said. "Can't believe you didn't notice me that entire time."

Katelyn has had her head drooped down forward towards her chest, staring blankly at her legs that sprawled out infront of her. A few hours have passed as she leaned against the wall like this, her mind abuzz with thoughts that came unbidden into her head. She would think back to the night of her escape, her fathers death, her best friends death but a few days ago.

Twitching an ear she looked up slightly at the sound of creaking stairs to see Nova and the human walking into the main room. Blinking slowly there was a damp feeling running down her cheeks. Almost startled by the thought she brought up her hands from her lap to whip at her face. Sighing deeply she said quietly to herself "I need to be strong, I can't think about the past... only the future..."
Looking up level with the ground now her eyes would trail to a bullet riddled sheet metal window seeing that it was night now, and time for what ever plan Nova had in mind for the group.

For a sole moment Sarah swayed uneasily in the spaces that held dreams and memories. Her neck relaxed, falling for a thousand meters before she woke up by a sudden twitch.  A heavy gasp echoed; with widened pupils she glanced across the now pitch black room. It took a mere sliver of a second to realize that dusk had arrived. With that realization she quickly arose, taking her bag of rattling medicines out of the room, the door creaked in rusted harmony; she made her way down the stairs with tipping steps and took a place between those that had gathered. Something ached, the bite mark on her lip radiated heat, she once again thought of the silhouette from upstairs.
