((Neh, I'm tired of waiting... Azura will magically come alive again Muahahahahah))
Azura groaned and coughed, her body becoming animated again. She brought a hand to her forehead as the pain from her fall finally settled in. She slowly opened her eyes as she managed to sit up. It was dark now and it took some time for her eyes to grow used to the absents of light but when they did she looked around. Hey cyan eyes fell on the Jetsam and Stripes. She gave them both a confused, embarrassed smile before she tried to stand up. "Where is the Xweetok...?" She asked, still a little dazed.

The Xweetok listened in on the wind for any signs of life besides the people she'd left just then. She was pleased to find a whole messful of homeless petpets in a cardboard box nearby. Finding the box, she pulled off a blanket covering it and saw six Kadoaties. She floated easily back to where the group she left had just been and sat atop a building roof above them. She pulled out a mewing Kad and gently stroked it, and then she dropped it off of the roof. The Kad smashed into the cement beside Azura, blood covering the girl from her knee down.

"Gone. Far as know." he murmered, grabbing her shirt and helping to hual her to her feet, glancing around wearily. He jumped back as something crashed down from the roofs above, his staff flaring to life in a flash of brightness only to illuminate the shattered body of the kadoatie beside them. He grimaced as the blood spattered his flippers and the bottom of his robe, but the majority of the blood landed on Azura. Shallo glanced up quickly, hoping to catch sight of the xweetok above.

She melded into the shadows as soon as the kad hit the ground and snickered silently. She leaned forward a little, and then a swoon overcame her; she fell forward and landed inches above the ground before dropping herself on her feet. She became visible again and staggered. She barely saw the people around her, or the fact that she'd knocked over the box of petpets on her way down. ((  )) She yelled in pain and clutched her head when suddenly it started to hurt like it'd never hurt before. She fell to her knees, and then onto her side, and then... Her clenched hands relaxed, and her agonized yells subsided. She lay silently for a moment on the ground. When she opened her eyes, she found herself in a weird place with a Jetsam and two Kougras, and dead Kads nearby. She shook her head. "Ummmm." She looked up at them and asked meekly, "Where am I?" |

Strips stood up when Azura finally woke up again, and from there he just kind of hung out. He didn’t know what to do or say, so he just stood there. As soon at the first petpet was dropped, though, he pulled his dagger and clutched it tightly in his left hand. As he stared, though, he began to chuckle. He hadn’t meant to, it just kind of slipped out.
Then when the girl and the rest of the petpets dropped in, he took a step back. He certainly wasn’t laughing anymore; his heart had begun beating rapidly in his chest as he stared at the girl. The father side of himself wanted to scoop her up and coddle her in his arms to make sure she was okay, but don’t tell anyone he feels like that; it’s a secret. He restrained himself, however, and stood frozen in place. At this point, he didn’t know what to do.

She looked around, frightened.
"Where....?" Her eyes landed on the dead petpets. She gasped; her eyes grew wide with terror. A river flowed out of her eyes and down her cheeks. She pointed and screamed, "AH!!!!!!!!! WHY--? WHA-- WHO? AND WHERe-- AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
She scrambled to her feet and backed away quickly, ready to bolt any minute now.

Strips's ears pinned back at the sound of her scream, and his head twitched slightly. He was thoroughly confused now. He recognized this girl as being the person who had shot him several times, and believed her to be the one who tore apart the young boy limb by limb, and who tried to strangle Azura. Yet, she was acting like she couldn't remember any of it. He might have believed her to be acting, if it wasn't for the stream of tears pouring from her eyes, unless she was just a really good actress.
Subtly, he rotated his dagger in his fingers, so that it was now held in a manner more appropriate for plunging, rather than jabbing. His arm did flinch, but other than that, he didn't move; he didn't lift his dagger.
At her slue of questions, he replied with the word, "you." His voice was quiet, however, and his facial expression didn't change from the straight look he had.

She gasped and stopped screaming, and looked at him fully. She backed away slowly. Her voice was different, much higher than the killer's had been. "Me? What about me?" she asked meekly, shaking with terror. Where was she? What was going on?

Strips's eyes glanced between Azura and Shallo, waiting for them to jump in any time now.
"You. You did this."

The girl blinked, and then laughed. "Who, me? No, not I. You see, I don't do bad things. I'm a good girl," she said matter-of-factly. "My mother told me so."
She smiled slightly. "I'm Lizzie," she said, holding out a hand. "Nice to meet you."

Shallo had leaped back a fair distance as the girl and the box of petpets began falling down. His staff was glowing bright white from the rush of energy and adrenaline running though his body.
As the girl began asking her questions though he merely stood his distant ground, holding his staff out in front of him and trying to determine the meaning.
I'm getting the idea that you're possesed.
I suppose you could say that, but it wouldn't be entirely accurate.
Shallo shot a glance at Strips as he began answering the girl, but the drastic change in her demeanor didn’t faze him as he considered his own situation.
“You wouldn’t happen to get possessed often, would you?” He asked slowly and cautiously, hoping her answer would be more revealing than he guessed it would.

Lizzie looked over at Shallo, and grinned. "Possessed? No, never. Well, by nothing outside, anyway." Her face then fell. "Oh no... I don't think I was supposed to tell you that. Now Lael and Mia are going to be mad at me." She sat on the ground with a plop and sighed.

Strips’s eye locked with Shallo for a mere moment before shifting back to the girl. Shallo asked about her being possessed, and in a way she answered him, so Shallo clearly new more about this than he did.
“Wait, what?” he asked, clearly confused as hell. “Who and who’s gunna do what and what?”

"Do you maybe want to talk to Lael?" Lizzie asked. "We can't wake up Ara yet, but you can pick anyone else."
Before anyone could respond, a sophisticated smile curled onto her lips, and Lael said in her deep voice, "Hello there. Please excuse the terrible things that Bekka has done tonight. I can assure you, we have her locked up tight. She won't be getting out for awhile."

Strips's confusion grew, and he blinked rapidly. After a moment, he brought his free hand to his temple and massaged it, closing his eyes and turning his head slightly toward the ground.
"Oooh boy, I need a cigarette," he muttered. As he looked to the girl again, he sighed. "What the heck are y'all talking about?" Clearly, this was way over his head.
