Fantasy Gods Among Us

[Miyuki]

Nemuru sat against the wall, catching her breath as her right contact fell out, revealing both eyes to be red. "Don't worry... If they come, I can get you two out of it... After all, they'd only go to come and get me... You see, my father's... the co-founder of ZenTech... They chased me... because I refused... to go see... him..." She was breathing heavily, all of that running having been too much for her small body, not to mention she had been running thirty minutes straight before running into the first two of the three beside her. "I should... just go see my father... before I get you all... found out... Do you have any... purple hair dye...?"

Freyja almost fell when she realized she was running off with the ZenTehs daughter!, "We are so screwed.." She then noticed the girl that Aiden pointed out. Theres no way she could fit this many people in her tiny apartment, but it seems this new girl with the cello was leading them elsewhere. Which made her instincts kick in. She wasnt sure if she should follow or not but she didnt have a choice right now. When they got up the stairs Freyja put Nemuru down and sat down herself feeling her legs react, "Hes right.." She took off her black blazer which was making her burn up after all that running and unbuttoned the first two buttons in her blouse sighing with relief as she started to cool down.

Beatrice nodded and went over to a small crate she fished through it until she found the purple, she moved over to another crate with contacts and pulled out a pair for her and a pair for the girl. "Is very one all right," she asked handing the girl the products. She walked over to the boy with the funny accent "Um and there is a trap door behind the large box," she replied as she tried to pull the dart from her hip her face screwed up in pain.

[Gobbo]

Aiden nodded, sighing a bit. "Ah, I see. Don't like backin' meself into a corner, is all." he explained, feeling overheated as well. He pulled his beanie off, revealing a shock of red, messy hair and long pointed ears. Reaching under his shirt he pulled the tape off of his tail, letting it unwrap itself from around his waist.


"Much better... Tapin' down me tail is one of th' worst feelings ever." he groaned a bit, his tail flicking about lazily as he worked the kinks out of the muscles.


"So, yer associated with ZenTech... Not to be 'that guy', but why should we be trustin' yer word? Fer all we know you'll just be bringin' ZenTech down on our heads."

Ari continued at an even pace trying not to wear herself out too early in the day. If her fears came true then she would need something for later, as irrational as that seemed. She noticed the other teen still keep pace with her not speeding up or slowing down, in fact he was keeping perfect sync with her steps which struck her as odd. She tried to ignore it figuring it wasn't worth getting angry over. For all she knew he was just a glutton for punishment, one of those guys who annoys other people just to get a reaction out of them. Ari kept her eyes forward trying to calm herself down since she knew her powers were getting out of hand. Last thing she wanted was to be shocking kids sitting next to her in class.


The sound of hurried foot steps drew her attention. "Hm?" She looked up seeing a redhead pulling two girls behind him bolting down the other side of the street. By there uniforms it seemed like they were running away from the school on top of that. Uneasiness stirred in her making her dread going to the school even more. She knew she had to go, there was no way around it.Her anger quickly dwindled to anxiety and worry about going to the school now her pace slowing slightly.

[Miyuki]

Nemuru took the purple hair dye, though refuses the contacts. "Those contacts aren't purple... I can't use them... They know my eye color's purple, so if they were any other color, I'd be done for." She pulls out a bottle of water from a bag she had been carrying the whole time, somehow nobody even noticing it until now. She splashes it all over her pure white hair, now using the hair dye, somehow getting her hair dyed in a short amount of time. She pulls out a pair of purple contacts, now putting them in to take place of her lost contacts. "They're really persistent. If they find us, I want all of you to just walk away while I let them take me... I'm the one they want, after all. So long as they don't find out any of you are infected, they'll peacefully leave as they take me to my father." When Aiden brings up the subject of her being with ZenTech, she just about throws up, being associated to her father and his company in such a manner. "Don't... ever... associate me... with my father like that... He left my mother to die when she got sick... He only cares about... turning me into some popularity stunt... I'd rather die than be associated with him that way..."

[The Darkling]

Freyja nodded, she was fine just a little warm was all. But her energy was a mess. She could feel the animal coming out and it was hard to contain. She looked at Aiden, he was right, how could they trust her if she was the daughter of the man out for their heads? She was amused watching his tail go back and forth and then her gut lurched almost making her feel sick. She looked up at Beatrice, "I-im sorry but..is there a place in here I can go for a second? without being seen?" She knew she sounded weird but she knew it was going to happen and if it werent for the fact that a boy was among them she probably wouldnt have cared. Buuut she did.

 

[Gobbo]

Aiden's eyes went wide when he was suddenly berated, the girl's tone sending a shock through his spine and down his tail, the tuft of fur at the end standing on end.


"Alright, alright... Didn't mean to offend." he said holding his hands up with a half-hearted grin.


"So, what now? Do we just wait around and hope those thugs don't find us?" Scratching his head a bit he sighed, his tail twitching lightly.


"Oh, that's right... Don't think we've introduced ourselves yet. I'm Aiden." Looking over at Freyja his smile faded a little.


"Are ye alright? Ya don't look so good..."

[Allina Auburn]

"Yes just use the trap door and climb down then turn to your right," she said smiling but still struggling with the dart "You guys can stay here but I can't zen-tech has been putting my dorm on surveillance and I dont wamt you to get hurt," she said cramming some food into her Cello case "There is supplies here for at least eight weeks and you get in by kicking the door, if anyone from Julliard comes round asking about my attendance to school tell the. I'm going to vist my mum in the U.S.," she said

 

[Miyuki]

Nemuru stands up, her hair and eyes now back to their purple look from the dye and contacts. "I have to get back to my little home... I have a few things I'll need if I'll be staying here." With that, she stood up, now walking over to the door. "If I don't return within half an hour, it means that ZenTech's gotten hold of me or cornered me, though don't worry about it. They'll only be taking me to my father."


@MorticiansDaughter @Alex Phalin

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja shook her head when she looked at Aiden, her smile gone as the pain and naseauou ripped through her body. She looked at Beatrice, "Thank you.." She stood up and wobbled a bit as her bones started to ache. When she reached the trap door she looked back, "Im sorry but..I have my own home to get back to..I thank you for..ng..helping but I need to go back.." She would be coming back up but right now she needed to disappear for a moment. When she found where she could be alone she stripped out of her clothes and held back throwing up. She growled and fell onto her side shaking and sweating. After a few moments the transformation had ended and all that was left was a slim lioness with piercing yellow eyes. "That always bloody hurts.." She gathered her clothes in her jaws and walked back up to the others. Not really thinking about how they would take it. When she reached the trap door she clawed at it trying to get someones attention.

 

[Gobbo]

Aiden nodded as everyone said they had somewhere else to be. He wouldn't have minded the company, but he wasn't going to try and force any of them to stay.


"Aye, I may pop in occasionally, but I don't like bein' boxed in like this." he explained, hearing a scratching on the trap door. Tilting his head a bit he opened it, freezing when he saw the animal.


"CHRIST JESUS ON A FECKIN' POGO STICK!" he yelped, practically hurling himself across the room to get away from it. His tail was stock straight, every hair on his body on end.


"How the bloody hell did that thing get in here?!"


@MorticiansDaughter @Miyuki @Allina Auburn

 

[Miyuki]

Nemuru notices the clothes, soon piecing together that it was Freyja, seeing as the clothes were torn, but not covered by blood. She walks over to the lion, petting her lightly on the head. "So this is what you got from becoming an infected... I wish I had the ability to do that, though I can understand it probably hurts... The clothes must be the main reason you needed privacy."


@MorticiansDaughter @Alex Phalin

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja tilted her ears back and tucked her tail. She walked back into the room and dropped the clothes, "Im sorry..I didnt really have time tomention..you know.." She ducked her head and sat down. She could speak to others through a group telepathy link. But it still scared people sometimes. "It was a lot easier in the country.." She looked at Nemuru and sat still, not really used to being pet. "Its one of the most painful things I have experienced and usually brings on sickness..And yes I dont think just going about being nude is a good idea" She chuckled and looked at her newly ruined clothes. And she just bought them to.

 

[Gobbo]

Aiden seemed to relax, though the tuft of hair on his tail still looked like a puffball. He found the voice in his head disconcerting, but he tried to relax. She had given him quite the fright. His face flushed red at the mention of her going around naked, and he decided it would be better if he didn't comment on that. He had a habit of being a lech, and he didn't want to make a bad impression. After all, these might be the first friends he'd have in a long time.


"Well, uh... Gotta say ya gave me quite a fright. This certainly explains the nails and the lovely eyes." he said with a little grin.


"Just wish I could hide me mutations like that. Such a pain to have to disguise meself if I go out during the day."


@MorticiansDaughter @Miyuki @Allina Auburn

 

[Miyuki]

"At least your hair doesn't turn white randomly... I usually have to dye my hair four times a day..." She didn't yet know what her power was, all she knew was she was an infected. She'd assumed somebody else did the floating trick to that one guy earlier, as well as didn't have time to even realize she slowed down herself when getting free of the two men's hold initially. "I wonder what my power might actually be... I haven't really found out yet..."


@MorticiansDaughter @Alex Phalin

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja laughed, "If I was in my human form and be blushing Aiden..And besides you do well at hiding. I expected you to be human when I first met you. Besides with my powers I cant control what can happen, its to feral. And my forced transformations are always in this lion form" She nodded and licked her paw. She did wonder how she was going to get home like this though. One she couldnt go in her underwear..and she definitely couldnt go in this form scaring the daylights out of people. She looked at Nemuru, "Maybe its best if you dont..as much as I have grown to love what I can do I also hate it. Its not like we asked for this to happen"

 

[Miyuki]

Nemuru shook her head in confusion and thought. "If I don't know what my powers are, then... what if they happen on their own due to me not knowing what kind of thing to try and control...? I could do something crazy without knowing..." She stood up, walking over to the door to leave for her home that only she stays at, not even her father knowing where it is. "I should best be going... I'll be back in half an hour, like I said..."


@MorticiansDaughter @Alex Phalin

 

[Gobbo]

Aiden chuckled a bit, moving over to his backpack.


"Well... I'm thinking that those clothes aren't gonna be doin' ya much good now. Ye can have this uniform, I stole it anyways." he said as he dug out another set of clothes from his bag.


"Alright. Be safe out there, try not to get yerself caught." he said to Nemuru, before opening up the trap door and disappearing behind it. He emerged a few minutes later, changed into a pair of jeans and a black shirt. The uniform was neatly folded, and he set it next to Freyja.


"There ye go. Should be easier than scarin' the hell outta anyone you pass." he teased lightly.


@MorticiansDaughter @Miyuki

 

[kibou]

Ash entered the school and headed immediately for their first class, hoping to avoid having to talk or make any contact with any other students and tossing what was left of the toast into a trashcan.


It's not that she wasn't hungry- in fact, since discovering she was infected, he was more hungry than usual. But with the feeling of uneasiness in the pit of his gut just that wouldn't go away, Ash didn't think they could stomach much.


She sat down in her usual seat in towards the back of the class with a passive expression on her face, waiting for class to begin and the day to be over.

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja sniffed the clothes, "You clothes smell nice..not like most boys..boys have a strange smell that I only recognize in this form" She looked at Nemuru and pawed at the air when she talked, "Hes right..anyone could be out there..just try and get where your going fast. Im sure we will all run into each other soon" She grabbed the clothes gently in her mouth and stood by the trap door waiting for someone to open it for her.

 

[Miyuki]

Nemuru opens it to let her through before she walks out the door, closing it, now starting to run as fast as she could down the stairs. She makes a run for it, three ZenTech guys seeing her about half a mile away from the building they were at. They start to chase after her, practically the entire ZenTech Corporation on the look for her. They give chase, about four more appearing from various locations, her still running as fast as she could. She runs down an alleyway, jumping down a sewer pipe she'd recognized from yesterday. She's actually left it and a few others around the city open just for the sake of escaping through them if her father sends guys after her. She closes it just in time before the men run down the alley, passing over the sewer she had just jumped down into, spreading out in all directions on the other side of the alley, which took them to a large courtyard filled with trees. She goes through the sewer which she had practically mapped in her head, making it to a small abandoned part of town, where she had set up a little home at.


@MorticiansDaughter @Alex Phalin

 

[Gobbo]

Aiden chuckled lightly at that.


"Now yer just tryin' ta make me blush." he teased her, opening up the trap door so she could go change. He moved over to one of the crates as he waited for her, his tail flicking curiously as he looked through what was in it. There was some food and water that he put into his bag for later. As he looked through the stuff he started humming quietly, trying to think of anything other than Freyja wearing his clothes. It wasn't working exceptionally well.


@MorticiansDaughter

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja finally got to the spot where she changed last and once again went through the painful process of turning back into a human. Well, somewhat human. When she was done she slipped the pants on and the shirt. "These definitely fit weird..oh well its clothing!" She walked back to the trap door and opened it up. She had to hold onto the pants a bit or else they sagged slightly and the shirt fit a little baggy on her. She grinned shly at Aiden, "Well..they kind of fit but you know. Thank you Aiden" She sat down and looked around the dark room, it was only going to get darker out.

 

[Gobbo]

Aiden turned and smiled warmly at her.


"Yer certainly welcome. Mis-fittin' clothes are better than no clothes at all. Besides, they look cute on you." he teased, digging through one of the crates. He pulled out some thin rope and pulled out his pocket knife, cutting a length of the rope.


"Here, so ya don't have to worry about yer pants fallin' off." he said, kneeling next to her to thread the rope through the belt loops. Once it was threaded through he tied it off, making sure it would be a snug fit, but not too tight.


"How's that? Better?" he asked as he stood again, trying to hide the fact that his face was red.
