Street Kids

Sheena looks at Hood skeptically. "I think he better run. Remember what happened when he picked up a gun...you really think he can DRIVE?"


Sheena shivers, hugging her elbows to her side as she steps out after Hood. Her leg and shoulder have both began to heal but still throb dully. She is able to ignore it though, as well as the continued pain in her ribs as she turns slowly in a circle, concentrating hard on picking up their scent. The blowing wind makes it no easier. Finally she says hesitantly, "There?" And points.
 
May looked at him doubtfully for a moment. Should she trust him? No. The answer popped into her head before she could stop it. She knew trusting ANYONE lead to nothing more than a load of s**t. But, to follow him didn't mean she had to trust him. It was just a way of getting out of this place. She shrugged, "Okay." She fell into step behind him and followed him down the corridor.
 
"I can drive," said Jason, suddenly, before Sheena could leave. "I, uh, I've never had a gun before, but I know how to drive. I'm not the best, but...." He trailed off as the girl hopped out of the van.


Jason climbed up to the driver's seat and rolled down the window. He looked over at the two, wondering what he should be doing; apparently... just waiting. Well, it wasn't as if they would exactly let him go in with them. He was just a liability.


Well, he thought, slumping back onto the seat. I guess I'll just... keep watch.





He didn't suffer from any delusions. He knew he was just flattering himself.
 
Sheena looks at Jason in continued disbelief, shaking her head. "You're thirteen, you can't drive." To her, that's end of the story. Looking over at Hood again, she starts off, waiting to see if he'll follow her. As she walks she is pretty sure that the scents are getting stronger, but she looks at him again to make sure he agrees.
 
"Why can't I drive?" muttered Jason, falling back onto his seat. "I can reach the pedals, and I know where the controls are. I've had practice."


Glum, he slid down in his seat. He eyed the radio, but decided against using it. Wouldn't want to...alert anyone to his presence.


So he just pulled out his notebook. Like always.
 
As Hood watched the two interact, he shook his head as well, giving Jason an almost apologetic look. It looked extremely strange coming from the man, like he wasn't sure he'd gotten it right. Moving to follow Sheena, he gave a nod to her look as he sniffed the air, confirming the scents were getting stronger. Once they were out of listening distance from Jason, Hood spoke, voice quiet as they neared the building where he was SURE they had taken the others. "You should not be quite as tough with that boy," he began, an odd tone to his voice. It was almost as if he felt badly for the child, but that was uncharacteristic of him. "He is the only one of us without a sort of 'ability' to set him apart. He is only seeking validation. He does not want to seem useless in a group setting, you see."


Just as his words were finished, they reached the outside wall around the building, causing Hood to look up. "Hmm. It would seem we have arrived," he began, then grinned a little to himself. "I would suggest you steel yourself for what you may see in there. If things make a poor turn, I may end up shifting using my Lycanthropy. I'm afraid it's nothing like you are used to when you shift. My presence seems to have 'tainted' the transformation process and altered the form."
 
As Hood speaks, Sheena glances back at him, startled by the tone in his voice- it is approaching empathy. Not to mention that he seems to be sympathetic towards Jason...she looks away, uneasy, and says with some discomfort, "He CAN'T drive. I mean, he's not even of age. I'm not even supposed to drive, really."


She pauses, then adds, "I mean, he probably would get us killed."


Still she doesn't feel very happy with that response as she shifts the new change of clothing she is carrying; she has suspected strongly that she would have to shift once inside, and this time she's prepared. Swallowing, she nods in reply to his words, steeling herself.


"Well...let's go in."
 
Kira was in to control room working on the computers. "May make sure you keep watch..." She said and looked as her partner came back with a computer disk. SHe inserted it into the computer. As it downloaded she was messing with man computer systems and adding new passwords and hacking many programs. She smiled and made it so complex it would probably take days to undo all the damage, not to mention the virus she just installed. SHe got up and the computer was still doing all kinds of stuff. SHe shut down the camras and all kinds of systems that might cause problems for their excape.
 
Sheena glances at Hood again, then back at the doorway; she can still sense the girls inside and is impatient to get to them, but also somewhat dreading what she may find inside. "Um...break it down? The door? Or...I guess we could actually try to open it." She smiles a little, betraying her nerves.
 
Hood simply chuckled and waved a hand dismissively, not really reading her discomfort. "Ah, and by law, I am no supposed to be breaking in to a strange building at night either," he pointed out with a grin, then a nod. "However, I understand where you are coming from." As she mentions going in, he gives a nod, then approaches the doorway with caution, eyes darting this way and that to look for any type of security.


When Sheena spoke about the door, he eyed it more carefully, tilting his head. "Well, just trying to open it would be the easiest solution, though unlikely to work. If that does not, then either breaking it down or unlocking it from the other side," he said, extending a tendril of blackness over his arm for just a second before pulling it back. Reaching forward, he placed his hand on the door's handle and pulled, tugging it open and sending him stumbling a bit. "That was... unexpected." He looked on the inside of the door, tilting his head once again. "This looks like it is locked electronically. Strange it would just be left open... unless something or someone else is tampering with security."
 
Kira and Zach walked down the halls. "I am not a techno geek!" She said angerly as she looked at her former partner. She felt furry at the name, she was a high class bounty hunter not a glass wearing computer freak. She walked angerly seeing the guards had all gone. This slightly worried her. She looked down the hall and then cluched the hand gun she had in her hands. It seems the shifting she did before she left the control room had healed most of her wounds. She was able to walk now. She flared in anger as Zach opened his big mouth again. She turned to him and stopped hi m as he walked.


Zach chuckled and then glared as she almost yelled angerly at him. WHat was wrong with techno geek? He chuckled to himself and then spook again. "Listen to inplainted a virus into the computer and completely messed up the whole system! It'll take weeks to get that computer up and running." He laughed and then shrugged as she turned around. "That is a techno geek."


Kira glared and then turned around and continued to walk. "It does not take a techmno geek to distroy a computer...you are just techno challanged."
 
Sheena frowns, not liking the implication, but then steps forward, lifting her chin. "They're this way. It's probably a trap...but we can take it. Right?"


Without waiting for an answer she continues down the hall, almost running straight into Kira and Zach. Her eyes widen, and she smiles, starting forward and reaching out to grab her arm. "Kira! Where's May! Is she okay? Is she tied up or something...are you okay? Where are the guys who...never mind, Hurry up, we have to get out of here!"


Her eyes narrow slightly as she looks at Zach, and she steps back. "Who's THIS?"
 
May had watched as Kira fiddled with the computers and followed them back as they walked through the corridors, to the exit. She only hoped they would hurry. The lack of guards had not worried her, it had barely registered in her mind in fact. It was Devin. She knew he was around here somewhere, and she knew Devin a bit too well. He wasn't going to let her go easy. She grinned as Kira and Zach argued playfully, it was rather cute to be honest. But before she could comment on their behaviour or ask them if they could hurry, a hand covered her mouth and another one wrapped around her tummy, restraining her arms. She found herself being pulled back into darkness, as if she had been dragged into a room or even an alleyway. She should have known. Without even having to hear the voice she knew it was Devin before he spoke, "Trying to run out on me again Siran?" Now that she was more alert, her senses were knocked up and she heard him hit something, like a button or some sort. Warning button? It seemed like it because after the sound came a loud siren throughout the building. May lifted her leg up sharply, missing his crotch because of him letting go and pulling back, she spun around and her vision switched so she could see him in the dark, she rose an eyebrow, "I didn't run out on you the first time, and that's not my name anymore, Devin." He stepped closer to her and his arms wrapped around her waist as he pulled her closer to him, she shifted uncomfortably, even though she was extremely used to being this close to him. Had Kira not noticed her absence? "Oh yeah, sorry about that Lust, your daddy called you Siran didn't he?" She winced lightly at his tone and her arms moved to shove his chest back, he caught them before she could and his tone actually sounded apologetic, Devin did actually feel something for May. "Sorry babe, I forgot. I've missed you so much that my attitude took a downfall." She ignored his last comment, she was done with him and his mind tricks. "It's not Lust either." He chuckled at her, and she could feel his breath on her cheek as his lips got closer, "So what is it then?"
 
Kira and Zack Look at eachother and then Kira growled. "Come with me." She said knowing May was just right behind them then up and disappeared. She looked at Zack and then at Sheena. "Don't worry he's just a friend." She said and followed the scent of May and then the Guards rushed at the three. Kira looked at them, 10, 15, 19 of them. She rushed not thinking she had time for this. SHe kicked down a few and then got seperated from Zack because of the guards. She found her way to May and a guy? She turned into a lion and leapped at the man holding May. "Get away!" She roared with anger.


Zack was busy shoot at the guards. He stepped in front of Sheena. "Well Nice to meet another one of Kira's friends...but I'd sugest we get out of here before I get shot." He said looking at her.
 
As the mob of men come forward, Sheena's eyes widen, and she tenses; about now she wants one of Kira's multiple guns, because she is not yet, despite the intense situation, able to shift into her Lycan form. Instead she gets into a defensive stance and hopes that Hood will kick into action.


One of the men grabs at her and she kicks him as hard as she can, then jabs her thumbs into his eyes out of pure instinct and fear. Still not shifting, she manages to duck past him and blindly opens the first door she sees, slamming it behind her. Running across it to another, she opens that door and finds herself in a hallway. She can sense May's scent more strongly now, and that of another person's, and her heart beating rapidly, she stops, trying to narrow down which door in the hallway she is behind, before she chooses and opens it. Seeing May inside, with Devin keeping her held close, she freezes.


"May."
 
Hood followed her, going to respond to her question, but not having the time as she continues quickly down the hallway. Shaking his head a little, he follows still, blinking as Kira appears with another male. He tilts his head and give them a smile and nod, before frowning again at Sheena's words. May wasn't with them indeed. It was quite worrisome.


When Sheena asked harshly who the other male was, Hood laughed lightly at the attitude, though he was curious as well. Before it could be answered, an alarm rang out fiercely throughout the building, causing the creature to clench a fist in frustration. Guards began to rush at them, carrying various forms of firearm by the looks of it. The new male had began shooting back at them and Sheena took out the eyes of one after a well placed kick, but it was clear that they would be overtaken if something wasn't done. "You two!" Hood growled at Zack and Sheena, blackness starting to ooze over his flesh. "LEAVE NOW!"


His last words were a roar as he stepped up, multiple bullets raining across his form and causing him to stumble. Taking a knee, the blackness twisted around him for a second before starting to churn wildly, as if the flesh underneath was bubbling and changing. His form began to twist and reshape violently, jaw lengthening and bones snapping into new places, all the while being reblanketed by the dark goo that surrounded him. When it was all over, the creature that was Hood rose again, a twisted form of Lycanthope and parasite. He did not have the look of a noble wolf... it was the look of something almost demonic; the look of terror made flesh.


Giving a multi-voiced snarl, the beast darted forward, slashing across the first guard's throat and completely ignoring the bullets that continued to find the mark on his flesh. It was if he couldn't feel them in his current state. Taking out a couple more, the monster stopped, twisting its' head sideways as Sheena's voice spoke a single word. 'May'.
 
As he was leapt at, Devin twisted sideways to avoid the attack, but kept May in his arms somehow. Rather than spinning her around and using her as a body shield, he actually let go of and her and shoved her behind him, protecting her. He pulled out his gun and aimed it at the lion Kira. He didn't know Kira, since he had joined after she had left. His lips lifted up into a cocky smirk, and his hair flopped over his eyes lightly, "You're that passed out girl from earlier aren't you?" He scanned her lion form with his eyes, "You're a shifter like Lust eh?" He looked to the other girl who had just burst in, "May?" He looked over his shoulder briefly at the glaring May, "So that's your new name?" He looked back to Kira, his gun trained on her.


May glared at him and and pushed past him, he flicked his eyes to her then Kira, May rolled her eyes, "She won't hurt me you idiot, she's after you." May looked at Sheena and smiled lightly, then ran over and wrapped her arms around her in a hug, she still felt the closest to Sheena. Considering they were the first to meet and Sheena seemed to understand what she had been through. She let go of Sheena, took an awkward step back, as if her hug had been a bit overwhelming, and looked around, "Where's Hood and Jason?" She felt someone behind her and spun around to see Devin standing a few inches away from her, his gaze was intense and focused on her as he wrapped his arms around her waist and she put her hands against his chest to try and keep the distance between them. "I'm not letting you go again Siran." She looked up at him and saw the love in his eyes, too bad it wasn't returned. She pushed against him but he wouldn't budge, she glared at him, "That's not your choice anymore Devin. Now let go."
 
Kira turned human and then looked at May. "Dude let her go before I really get mad." She said with much anger. "May we got to go now! We don't have time for this!" She said grabing may's arm and glaring at Devin. "He set off the alarm...and if he wants to stay alive I'd sugest him let us leave before Henry kills us all." She said and then looked at SHeena. "Where's Zack!?" (Oddly enough I had planned Zack to tell Kira he had a crush on her, before he of course um was shot and killed. Sad really)
 
(Who killed him? I thought he was still alive. xD Oh and Devin's bio is on the sign up thread, sorry 'tis a bit late)


Devin glared at Kira as she pulled May away, "Fine. You can leave." He glanced at May's deep brown eyes as she looked back up at him, confusion in their depths. "But I'm coming with you." May glared lightly at him, "No." He strided over, leaned so that his body was only inches away from hers, again, as his hand rested on the door handle. "Yes." He pulled it open and grabbed May's free hand, he glanced back at the other two girls, a smirk on his face now, "You better keep up" He then tugged May out of the room, she gave the other two a look that said, 'Sorry! He's an a$$hole!'
 
(He's going to be killed.)


Kira rolled her eyes in annoyence. "You better be careful because I might slit your throat while you're sleeping." (He got on her bad side.....hmm not such a good idea.) She followed behind him and then grabbed Zack. "Come on let's go." She said tugging him along. "SHEENA LET'S GO PLEASE!" SHe yelled back and then looked at Zack. She grabbed a hand gun and shot two men in the shoulder. She was aiming to disable them and not kill. That was her way, although...she might be driven to kill. STill though she did her best to avoid it.
 
When May hugged her, Sheena tensed at first, then almost smiled, hugging her back. She cannot remember the last time someone has hugged her before she met May, and May has a few times now...she enjoys it, wants to prolong the experience, even if it does feel somewhat strange. But now is clearly not the time, and as the action occurs around her, her eyes dart. She doesn't know what is going on, who this guy is...she had thought at first he had May captured, but he's calling her Siran, and she seems okay with this...


As Kira reappears, shouting her name, Sheena shrugs inwardly and follows them, her hair flying out behind her as she stays close behind May and Devin, yelling to her, "Jason's outside, Hood's fighting, let's go!"
 
Jason had always been proud of how easily he fit into the streets. His senses were sharp, he had fairly quick reflexes and if he ever got in trouble... Well, he could run. He was well suited for a homeless life. For a human, at least. He probably got the traits from his parents, which always made Jason uncomfortable to think about... If he had ever been asked how his parents were, he'd have said they were pretty okay. If he had been asked if they were good parents, he'd have said they were pretty okay.


Nowadays, if anyone ever asked, he said, "Parent? What's a parent?"


He snapped to attention when sounds emanated from the still-open door. It sounded a lot like bullets. Faint, sure, but Jason had learnt by now not to take chances, especially when it concerned objects that flew through the air at high speeds. Still watching the doorway, he reached down and pushed the car into drive. Don't want to be caught idling... he thought, not really finding the joke humorous.
 
Devin doesn't have any idea who Hood is, who Jason is. Even who these two girls are. All he knows is May, and all he cares about is getting her out of here. Sure at first he was the one to keep her in this place, but since they all seemed intent on leaving, and seemed able to do so. He was going with them. He wasn't going to leave Siran again.


May glanced at Devin as they ran, why was he coming with them? Couldn't he see she didn't want him around? It had taken a while to forget him, to forget what he had meant to her. But now she was over him, over all of it. Him showing up had disrupted her majorly and was bringing back old memories she had tried to hard to get rid off. She nodded in response to Sheena, glancing back at her. She was still being dragged by Devin so she couldn't slow down to run beside her, or else she would. "Hood's fighting?" She smiled lightly, "Can we watch?" At the moment Devin stopped, causing May to bump into his back, he grabbed her before she could fall on her butt and looked back infront of him, shielding her with his body, "I don't think so Lust, if that's Hood. And I think it is. We are not sticking around to get killed by it." He smirked lightly at her and she looked around his body, "Stop calling me Lust and Hood is a he, not an it." She muttered lightly as her eyes landed on Hood's form. They widened and a grin fell onto her face, "That is amazing!" She exclaimed, taking in each detail of his body. Memorizing it. Devin rolled his eyes, "Come on." He grabbed her hand once more and before they could run a bullet whizzed straight at May, Devin grabbed her and pulled her out of the way, then his eyes travelled to the guard who had shot it. They flickered with anger and he felt his bones starting to vibrate, you could see his muscles tense visibly and his fists clenched to the point of turning white. May looked at him and her eyes widened, "Don't Devin. It missed, I'm fine. We're going!" She gripped his arm, he was about to wolf out. "Stop Devin." He looked at her and his gaze was fierce, "He almost killed you." May glared lightly, "It's not your job to protect me anymore Devin. I'm going. Please stay here and don't follow us." She let go off him and grabbed Sheena's hand instead, starting to run with her across to the door, dodging the bullets and deciding to leave Hood to it. The stupidest thing someone can do is interfere in someone else's fight.
 
Zack grabbed Kira. "Hey...that hood guy is pretty neat but let's go!" He said and then he started running again. Suddenly Kira heard a bullet zoom past her ear, just barrly missing making her ear burn and bleed. She clampped her hand over her ear and then looked at Zack. He fell back on her. Kira's horror became known on her face. She fell to her knees with Zack's limp body in her arms. Tears swelled her eyes and she cried out in much pain, not from a mortal injury but from a emotional one. There was Zack shot dead. She looked back at the guard who shot him with tears flowing down her cheeks as the pain increased in her eyes. He pointed the gun at Kira, but she was in to much pain to move. Zack's blood was on her clothes but she couldn't care less.
 
Devin heard the girl's cry and glanced back at her, he had began going after May. He saw the deep emotions in her face and eyes and he frowned, maybe this was the way to get to May. Helping her friend. He then looked at the guy in her arms and back to her. His fists clenched as he realized that could have been May, only a few moments ago she almost got hit. That could have been May. He looked back at the girls tears and felt a strange motion overtake him. Empathy. He could have imagined that being May, and also imagined that deadly feelings that came with it. He looked to the guard and realized he was about to shoot Kira. He growled, it was the same guard who almost killed his May. He ran at the man, and mid-run he completely shifted, turning into his Lycan form as he leapt at the man, knocking the gun from his hand. It was very rare that Devin turned, and was always for a good reason. Within a few moments the man who had shot Zack was in pieces on the floor, although Devin had managed not to rip the guy's trousers. He picked them up in his mouth, planning to put them on once he shifted back.


He went over to Kira and nudged her, in a way that meant, 'We have to go'
