Was puzzled for a moment as the bear spoke to a "Tyler." However, once he heard the other figure move behind him, gun drawn, the wolf knew he was outmatched. Despite this, Victor didn't flinch. Instead, the wolf nodded slightly, turning his head just enough to see the canine behind him before laughing again, glaring through th cracked, blackened lenses.

"Dos horas." [Two hours.]

Was the only phrase he spoke, his tone changed from sarcastic to somber. What he alluded to or meant by it, Victor would not say. Reluctantly, he loosely flipped the security baton at the bears legs with an underhand toss and shrugged.

"Do you guys have any pastries, per chance?" The wolf asked in the silence, regaining his sarcastic tone and glancing around at the group.

[Blaiiine]

Blaine picked up the baton and handed it to Kai, before looking back to the wolf silently. After a moment, he laughed and replied, "We'll check the supermarket in the pantry. Let's get inside." Blaine grabbed the wolf by his shoulder and walked inside with him.


"That went better than expected," Tyler said to Holly and Kai, putting the pistol back in his waistband. He waited by the door, gesturing for the two to go inside first.

[Inb4Cloaker]

Despite the sarcastic response he as given, the wolf maintained his composure and rolled his eyes. Upon being grabbed, the wolf jolted for a second and pondered making a move. After a few seconds, the wolf relaxed and thought now would not be the best time. Sighing, the canine went silent and accompanied the bear inside, carefully glancing around after stepping onto the porch and through the door.

[Blaiiine]

Blaine lead them into the living room and gestured for the wolf to sit on the couch. He dragged a chair over and sat down, taking out a pack of cigarettes. Lighting himself one, he looked up at the stranger and asked, "Want one? Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you."

[cuzyeahboi]

Holly grinned, "I wouldn't be so sure. I might kill him." Her knife was still covered in David's blood as she held it loosely. Kai smacked Holly in the back of the head lightly. "We don't murder people randomly!" She held the baton and knife, contemplating fighting strategies.

[Inb4Cloaker]

Ambled over to the couch and sighed, simply plopping down on the cushions without grace. Observing the bear, he saw him drag a chair over before sitting directly opposite of him. The wolf clapped his paws together and leaned back, crossing his legs. The wolf was about to reply to the cigarette offer, but overheard one of the sisters behind him threaten his existence. Turning around slightly, the wolf looked at her and the knife she held from over his sunglasses before turning back to face the bear. At this point, Victor was starting to feel uneasy.


"If you are offering me one of those, apparently you are trying to kill me. Although that would be much slower than... her." The wolf replied, discretely gesturing back at the fennec and eyeing the lit cigarette with distaste.


"So, let's suppose you won't give me an early retirement from life," the canine started, leaning forward, "what now?"

[Blaiiine]

"Why are you here and what do you want?" Blaine asked, tossing the pack to Holly.


Tyler stood by, arms crossed and tapping his left boot on the ground. Brushing the hair from out of his eyes, he observed the wolf and his outfit.

[cuzyeahboi]

Kai sighed, it was pretty obvious that they were all trying to survive. He had mentioned multiple things that could be important though. Holly caught the pack, pulling one out she put it in her mouth, tossed the pack back then lit the cigarette with her personal lighter.

[Inb4Cloaker]

Watched as the bear tossed the cigarette pack away, finally asking the question Victor had been anticipating.


"Why I am here? I am here because I had to run from...them. What do I want? I want to not be here, and some water if possible."


The wolf hadn't realized his thirst until just moments ago, having been moving nonstop for the past few hours. Victor also noticed that the bears companion had been eying his outfit and slowly removed his beret, gazing at it longingly as he spoke.


"I worked private security, basic stuff, ya know? Then somethi-... someone, happened. Me and my co-workers went from unloading money from an armored car and listening to music to flooring it down the highway past screaming people and anarchy... Then came the tree, and now here is me." The wolf finished up, looking back up at the bear and continuing. "I've been getting by, but my luck almost ran out, or maybe it has completely depending on you." He said with a shrug of indifference.


Slowly, the wolf removed his sunglasses and blinked a few times, biting his lip softly before nodding over to the bear and sheapard. "So what about you, huh? Why are you here?"

[cuzyeahboi]

Holly took a drag, then spoke "We're here because this is possibly the safest point anywhere near here." Kai almost laughed at the assumption but kept a straight face.

[Blaiiine]

"And we're not exactly fans of being ripped apart by the undead," Tyler replied before walking out of the room. He stopped at the stairs and sat down, sighing.


"Yeah, that about summed it up." Blaine said, looking back to the wolf. "Regardless, I have one last question." He said before standing up and gripping his bat. "Why do you think I should trust you and not take this against your head?" Blaine asked, voice turning cold and serious.

[cuzyeahboi]

Kai left the room to sit next to Tyler. "I'm not gonna watch them murder a random person soooo" Holly grinned at Blaine's train of thought, brandishing her knife.

[Blaiiine]

"Wait, what?" Tyler asked, quickly jumping up and moving into the room.


Blaine was still staring the wolf, but he turned his attention to Tyler who was almost right on him. "Hey, you wa-" Blaine managed to say before Tyler cracked the handle of his handgun across Blaine's face.


Blaine crumpled to the floor, mouth bleeding. "You listen to me, damn it! I'm sick of this natural selection shit!" Tyler yelled, pointing the gun at his own friend.


"Who the hell are you to te-" Blaine said, being cut off by Tyler. "I'm the one who's holding the gun, prick!" He yelled, looking back at the others.

[cuzyeahboi]

Holly tilted her head, grinning. Kai stood and turned, one glance through the door told her it wasn't good. She stood there, wide eyed as Tyler held Blaine at gun point.

[Inb4Cloaker]

Heard the party speak, and nodded in respect of the reason. Watching as the shepard left the room, Victor frowned slightly and sighed with exasperation.

"Wait...are they dead?"

Suddenly, the bear stood up with bat menacingly and caused the wolf to accept the seriousness of the situation. Placing the beret and sunglasses down gently, the canine stood up slowly with no sudden movement and loooked right back into the bears eyes before he spoke.

"You don't look like a murder, and I don't look like an insane killer, not just yet, so you decide why you should trust me or not."

The wolf replied, gritting his teeth as he watched the bear. The wolf knew he may be staring death in the face, but he was out of options. He could only hope the bear actually wasn't a murder.

"Hacer su movim-." [Make your mov-]


The wolf didn't get to finish his sentence, moments later the Shepard had returned and cracked the bear with the handgun, holding him at gunpoint. The situation had escalated beyond his control, and was at a loss of words for a few seconds. Finally breaking out of his stupor, the wolf looked over at the Shepard and whispered, slowly raising a paw to show no threat, the look of confusion on his face.


"Hey hey, lower the gun, everything is all good..."


Whether Victor should be helping the person who just threatened to beat him to death, was unknown, but it was too late now. Looking back at the fennec sisters, he gestured at the Shepard and silently pleaded for help.
