The Vet and Criminal JustadashxGuySouvlaki

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Just a routine drugs search, ma,am."The policeman said giving her a smile as he checked he license. He waved over a police canine and it handler. who took a look around the car, the handler taking a long suspicious look at Silas. In the end the dog found nothing and the policeman handed the license back."Seems like a all clear. Have a go..."


"Richard, a word."The handler called out the policeman waiving him over to the police car.


"Eh...Yeah..."The policeman told the handler, finding it difficult to turn away from Kali for a moment. He turned back to Kali."Wait a moment."


He walked to were the handler was and the two whispered to each other with the occasional glance at Silas, making him uncomfortable. When one officer went into the car to check the computer inside, Silas spoke nervously.


"Kali...I think we have been made..."

 

[Justadash]

Kali didn't say anything, she was trying to think of a way out, she knew she couldn't out run them on the road, and they still had a good distance to go before they would get to the road leading to the factory. "Do two things for me... Use the water around to pop one tire on each car, don't make a show of it, just do it as inconspicuous as you can. Then, add a thick layer of ice over my license plate, it will make it harder for them to track." She said in a low voice hoping there was enough water around to do all that. "Then just leave the driving to me..." As she said that she pushed the shifter over to the right so that she could control which gear the jeep was in. "Let me know when it's done..." Her heart was pounding, she had never done anything like this, her fingers were white around the steering wheel and the shifter.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Oh so standard stuff then." He commented while still pretending to sleep, concentrating to sense any water in the area. He noted an sewer drain in the pavement nearby the police cars."I hope you dont mind some dirty water." He acted as if waking and extended his arm as if stretching himself awake. His movement though guided some of the water of the sewers up through the drain and shot them at high speed at the police car tires. At the speed the water was shot cut through the tires like a knife through butter. However the stunt was easily noticed by the officers who started to go after them."Forget about the license. Drive, Kali!"

 

[Justadash]

"Do you not know what the meaning of inconspicuous is?!" Kali growled at him and she slammed the jeep into second and pushed the peddle to the floor. Tires squealing she zoomed past the barrier of cop cars, destroying the barrier poles. She shifted the gears as they flew on until the jeep was in 5th gear, then, not having anymore gears she pushed the shifter back over to the left. Taking her hand off the shifter and put it back on the wheel as they hit 120mph. "We will probably get to the turn off in about a half an hour, let's hope they can't get the cops back on this road my then," she said simply, still a little irritation in her voice. But in the end the result was the same, she would have had to drive like this no matter what... But still... His way just put even more attention on them because now God only knows how many people had seen him use his gift...

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Oh, I am sorry, lets see you cut through tires with water without drawing attention! I am sure your healing powers cant do better!"He growled before looking back at the police cars following close behind then turned back to front seeing a manhole cover. He through quickly."Drive slower, i want to try something. "He said before concentrating around the area of the manhole cover, trying to heat up the water underneath to steam as much as he could..

 

[Justadash]

"No, my gift couldn't but I could have thrown knives at the cars and gotten the tires more inconspicuous than what you did," she looked at her rear view mirror, "and you didn't even get all the cars!" She was frustrated, and scared and wasn't thinking about what she was saying. But she slowed down to 90 waiting for his cue to hit the gas again. She was getting more and more nervous watching the cops creep up in her mirror. "I really hope you have an idea," Kali said more to herself than to Salis.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Did i mention this was your plan to slash the tires in the first place?"He said while still concentrating on the cover which began to shake and let of steam by the time the passed over it. He turned around to watch the police approuch it and waited before they were just close enough to it before saying:" Here goes nothing."He raised his hands as if trying to lift the manhole cover. The cover jumped infront of the police car ahead of a jet of steam, dropping on the side of a police car bonnet. The jump was not high enough as Silas hoped it would so it would cause damage to a car but it was surprising enough to cause the police car to veer suddenly. It knocked on the another police car making them stop to regain control and allowed them to gradually disappear from view. "Just like i planned it."He said with smirking sitting on the seat properly though visibly weary from the effort.

 

[Justadash]

"It was my plan to do it INCONSPICUOUSLY! Not in a show off manner!! That way you could have gotten them all and not just a few and we wouldn't have to risk hurting people. DAMN..." Kali watched in the mirror as his 'plan' went into play. She winced as she saw the cars hit into one another. But she put the peddle back to the floor and didn't ease up until they were back at 120. At that she eased back up and set the cruse.


She completely ignored his arrogant smirk. In her opinion he had nothing to be proud of, there wasn't anything good about putting peoples lives in danger. Even if they were wanting to capture you, if there was a way to escape without hurting someone, that is the way to go. Just because they are trying to do wrong to you, You do not do wrong back, two wrongs don't make a right.


So she sat there fuming, watching her rear view mirror and for the turn off to the factory, afraid to say thing because of the fear of saying something she might regret.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

His smirked disappeared to sigh and rubbed his eyes, feeling little ashamed about his cockiness.


"I am sorry and i know you are not the only want to say sorry to..."He said meekly."I missed up back at the checkpoint and the manhole cover was my way of making up for it. "winging it" as it were. I am used playing magician and entertaining kids with my powers not out run police or subtlety. "

 

[Justadash]

Kali's face softened with the apologize, "Well, we are out of the woods for now and I don't think anyone was seriously hurt back there. Just enough to make them sore. And playing Magician is fine, as long as you know when it is time to stop the play and use your gift for real. I can only imagine the things you can do with your gift. It is completely amazing. I mean seriously, you will never die from thirst, you will never go cold or hot, you are never with out defense... Completely amazing... You are a very lucky person." she said contemplating all the different things he would be able to do with his gift if given the chance and if practiced enough. "So, How are you with the out doors? Since the factory is abandoned we are going to have to walk half of the way which is probably about a day and a half... Might have to camp."

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"You are being too kind, i am useless without a source water about like everyone else. In truth i wish i rather had your power during some parts of my life, you can stave of death something no one else can."He said giving a small smile realizing she was calming down rather then her praise of his powers." As of outdoor, well i have been camping...Once...When i was ten...Begged my father to take me home after the second hour. How hard can it be?"

 

[Justadash]

"No, I am really not, I just don't think you have used your power to the full potential. I mean think about it, there is water all around us, in the air, in the plants, in everything... there is nothing that doesn't have water in it. I would think that the only thing that would change from getting the water from the air to getting the water from a river or stream is how much you had to concentrate... I know it's not my gift, but... Just my thoughts.... Pretty cool if you ask me... My gift is only useful during bad times. I never see anyone or anything when it is in good condition. Yes I can heal it and bring it back to normal, but when you see so many animals or people hurt, it gets to you. Then I can only do so much in one day because, depending on the injury, it can take a lot of energy to heal. Though, knock on wood, I have yet to see a living creature that I cannot heal... except myself that is... Funny Huh?" She giggled a little bit of the irony that went with being able to heal everything in the world except herself. "But camping is fun. I have never had an issue with it. Though, I like nature. I know lying out on the ground and listening to all the animals around is not for everyone."

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"If you say so, haven't really found much use for my powers to test them to the fullest especially as teacher. And yeah, i haven't seen many injured or near dead like you have but the few times i have seen...Is hunting."He said feeling a bit sorry for Kali on the effect of her job and power on her. He then smirked, sitting up and placing his hands on his sides."May be i missed my calling you know, should have worn a cape and cowl and become a superhero! Fighter of crime and activists for gifted equality! With your brains and healing we will go far! And i shall have a name that would fill the bigots and criminals with horror! I shall be...Mister....Sprinkler! Fear my passing of water!"

 

[Justadash]

Kali burst into laughter "Mister Sprinkler! HA! That's a good one! That name will spread panic throughout the land! 'Fear me! I will make you wet then freeze you!" she continued to laugh for a couple more minutes, but finally settled down to just having a silly grin on her face. "Wouldn't that be something, being able to use your gift for good and not be convicted of something and arrested by the 'normal' people... Maybe one day we will get there. I Think we will one day! Just got to have patients!" She looked around at their surroundings still with a smile on her face, "probably about another 10 minutes until we reach the turn off."

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"I hope so...You have a nice smile and laugh, you should do both more often."He found himself saying as he watched her laugh at his joke. He felt self conscious and looked at head fearing he was inappropriate."Eh...Yeah, good.... We made good time here...Despite..,Issues."

 

[Justadash]

"Well, it seems like with you around I am going to be one of two things... Either very annoyed or very happy," she laughed, "I feel like a woman going through menopause. Not sure what you are going to get next with you aground." She said giving him a smirk. "Eh, we made good time through team work, forget about the issues, shit happens." She waved a hand in the air as if shooing the issues away.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"That is the general impression i give to people, always keep people guessing."He said smirking."Well, if this works out, i intend to make you the latter rather then the former. It only fair, i do owe you for all this. However that only after we get shorted so am afraid you will have to deal with annoying a little bit more."He saw the end of the clearing not far ahead."is that it?"

 

[Justadash]

"you don't owe me anything. I wanted to do this just as much as you did. I get tired of living in the shadows. It's not that I want to brag about my gift... but I could do so much more if I could just be open with people, and not have people shun me because of something I cannot control." She sighed. She looked at the clearing he pointed at, "yep that's the turn off, I can take my jeep so far and then I will have to hide it as best we can in the trees." She said as she started driving onto the rough trail, "hold on, this might get a bit bumpy."

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Well, never did expect the ride to be smooth."He said bracing himself for the resulting car shaking. Though the shaking was not so bad, the movement was painful to his still raw areas that once held his wounds. He gritted his teeth and bared it until they finally reached the clearing. Around them was a series of loosely spaced trees of a different sizes, the grass on the ground was of a darker green and brownish yellow littered with brown leaves. "Pretty in its own way but i expected it greener."

 

[Justadash]

"Yeah, it is nice out here, wish I came out here more often," she said as she parked the jeep in-between two larger trees. She got out and started shuffling through some things in the back, finally pulling out a large camo mesh that usually went over deer stands.


"You mind helping me put this over the jeep? I probably won't help but, it never hurts, and since we have to leave it here I would like to take every caution we can," she said as she started to unfold the mesh and drape it over the jeep.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Sure. "He said picking up the other end of the camo mash and helping her put it on top of the jeep. Once on he made act of looking around for something."What happened to the car?"He asked jokingly before a question propped up in his mind."Say why do you have a camo net."Have you done this before?"

 

[Justadash]

Kali rolled her eyes when he made the joke but had a half smile on her face. She shrugged when he asked if she had done this before. "There has always been rumors of gifted hideouts. I have checked most of them out, to no avail, and most of them have been in the middle of no where. So yeah maybe once or twice." She started pulling their supplies out of the back of the jeep. "As I said before, I have even looked at this factory before and found nothing. Hopefully I just over looked something."

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Fingers cross then. Let me help with those, i have a reputation as a gentleman to regain."He said moving at the back of the jeep with her, an attempted to pick up a few of the bags. It was painful on his shoulder but it didn't buckle which was what he had hoped for, he smiled at the return of his strength."Yay, i can be physically helpful! Anyways this highlight aside, shall we be of to round two of our quest for the hidden community?"

 

[Justadash]

Kali rolled her eyes again at his silly joke and shook her head laughing a bit. "Hopefully there will be someone there, we'll see I guess. And I told you you would be fine, you have have I baby it for a bit," she said grabbing the last bag with the tent in it, out of the jeep and slinging it over her back then taking one of the smaller bags with their clothes and food in it and put in over her shoulder. She looked at him with a teasing smile, "are you ready to go hiking my good criminal? Or will I need to carry you and your injured arm as well?" She gave him a wink and started off into the woods.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

"Heh, Carry me, doctor? Ouch, you hurt my man feeling with that one. "He said chuckling as rushed up to catch up to her as they made through the woods. The woods were shaded by the canopy of trees and thanks to a gentle wind, the are was cool and comfortable. This combined with the scenery and the peaceful nature of the nature only slight marred by their working on leaves and the concessional animal sound, made the walk enjoyably. Kali presence didn't hurt that matter, in fact despite getting tired quickly in the uneven terrain and slight pain from his raw wounds he found himself pushing on just to impress. However it was a couple of hours later when he realized he could go on, stopping to seat in a fallen log near a stream."Just hang on for a minute...Need to catch my breath."
