[Dr. Strange]

"Oye. I'm fine. I'll watch over him in here." She stopped when she saw Tezztor. "Hi. I'm Sam."

[flames]

Flames was dreaming...or was he? It felt too real, so vivid...
Flames stood atop a lone hill on the border of the desert, a crimson fire in his eyes: It was gone, everyone he cared for...gone for all eternity thanks to one maniac. Flames body shook with an intense fury as his eyes glazed over, no longer seeing the ruins of the last city on the planet, not seeing the proof that he was the last living being alive...No, he saw the maniac who had murdered them all, laughing. Flames ran towards the image, pounced and...

"Menyaaaa!" Flames yelled, waking up suddenly, causing everyone to jump a few feet into the air. They...no. Everone back home was fine, the Maniacal Living Toothbrush had been defeated in a game of Dare and all was well, Flames' rapid breathing subsided and his heart beat lessened, when he noticed the people around him. He tilted his head to the side and opened his mouth: "Huh?...Oh, sorry about that..."

[Dr. Strange]

"Jeezus! Don't do that!" She yelped, holding a paw to her chest.

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

She jumps a little when Flames wakes up, but doesn't make a sound and just stares at the tent that he's in. She scratches her head and then plops back down on the ground beside her tent.

[flames]

"Sorry..." Flames said, looking somewhat embarassed. "Darn Toothbrush..." He thought to himself, beforing turning his attention to the fur in front of him. "Are you the one who saved me? May I ask of your name?"

[Dr. Strange]

"I'm Samantha. Who're you?" She gasped, trying to catch her breath again. Her heart rate slowly went back down to normal.

[flames]

Flames smiled. She had a nice name...
"Eh, I'm HoKaze no Flames, but you can call me Flames. Thanks for earlier...My body is Negatively Buoyant, so I sink like a stone in water..." He glances around for a moment before trying to remember what happened before he fell unconcious.

[Dr. Strange]

"Nice to meet you Flames. Cool name." She looked at his soaked fur and reached behind her to grab a towel. "Dakota, go get me a set of fresh clothes please. He's soaked. I'll get him dressed then we can sit by the fire and talk."

[flames]

Aack! Undressed? But then they would see...
Flames glanced down at himself and frowned for a moment. Instead of his normal armour or casual gear, he was wearing a pair of baggy trousers and a simple blue T-shirt.
Flames braced himself for their reactions when he had to explain a few odd things about himself...

[Dr. Strange]

When she had gotten the clothes, she shooed everyone out and handed him the clothes. "Undress, now. I'm going to make sure you don't have any bruises. you hit that water pretty hard."

[flames]

Flames sighed and stripped down, although he kept his gloves on, revealing more of his fiery orange fur and a patch of white fur on his somewhat muscular chest. But that was not what got all the attention. Scars. Many where visible despite the fur, all large and slightly old, clearly not caused by anything recent.
If they found out why he had to keep his gloves on...

[Somebody]

Tezztor glanced away from him torward the water. Flames deserved some privacy and far be it from him to stare at his scars. Though he couldn't help wonder what battles he had faught, or if he had simple fell down too many stairs. He was unusually curious for a raptor but he tried not to show it.

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

She shakes her head to herself. She couldn't be here right now. Something was bothering her, she didn't know what, but something was. She stands up and looks at the beach then kinda back in the direction of everyone. "Well, I'm gonna go..." She makes a gesture in a direction down the beach, trying to show that she was going for a walk. "...yeah..." She walks away and starts heading down the beach, not really wanting to be alone but she couldn't just sit there.

[Somebody]

Tezztor, watched her get up and go. "Mind if I come with you?" he asked catching up to her. Something seemed wrong so he simply asked, "Is ssomething wrong?"

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

She looks at him and gives him a small smile. "Nah, I don't mind." She then looks down at the ground as she continues to walk. "Yeah, but I don't know what. My mind just confuses me sometimes." She scratches her head then crosses her arms.
