Two Hybrids [ a 1x1 between Azi and me. ]

[azimuth]

Michael remains frozen in place, but calls after a few minutes. He begins stroking her back after a few more.the cabin fallssilent,aside from the roar of the engine and the suspension working hard.

 

[Sandra]

Yami then starts purring in her sleep after a while. She then woke up to a hand stroking her back and a few more faces looking around, her ears perked up to the roar of the engine. She then felt something bad was going to happen. The ends of her hair stood up, but his stroking made her calm down. She purred and she rubbed her head against his chest as a thank you. She then got up and walked over to Zack's lap, laying down again. She purred and nudged his chest for him to let her. Even though she could talk, she liked the silence. Yami was being all cute and playful, so she licked his thumb. Her head rubbed aginst his chest again. A kitty cat she was.


A few moments later... They were still driving, but there was something up ahead... A small... Town? There wasn't a town on the map.... Out of curiosity, she went up to angel, "Hey,... Was there a town on the map??" She said out of curiosity, as they came closer, graffiti and writing were all over the walls, old signs were hanging... There was something on the wall.. But Yami read the graffiti...


I'm Listening... Are you?...





One wall said...


The wind is howling, listen...





Another wall said...


The town of shadows and wind.... Do you belong here?


She raised a brow at that one, well, she was in cheetah form..


Beware of the Shadows that lurk...They just might want to pull you in with them..





She would have raised both brows if she was in human form...


Suffer with them. Suffer --





The other parts seemed to fade,... She began to read the description.


"Welcome to Snap Dragon! We have been expecting you."


"This town was made in 1978, by George A. Millers. He was the brain of this operation! This town was made for the special ones out there, enjoying our comfy, cozy homes and apartments! Take a look at our shopping centers and restaurants! We sure will have you hooked here. We are delighted that you choose to stay here, at Snap Dragon. The perfect town for you."





Yami thought the last sentence was bit creepy. And the walls creeped her out as well. She was on edge on place, all of her hairs were standing up, her back was arched like a scared cat. She snarled slightly...

 

[azimuth]

"this town doesn't even show up on Sat maps. It isn't meant to exist." angel says.


"I have a bad feeling about it. Can we go around?." Zack says, going to sit next to Tami and the grate between them and the drivers cab.


"to rough. We'd get stuck. Only way is straight through."


"no. Pull over. I'll do an Arial sweep to see if there's anything in there." Zack makes his way to the back and angel slows down and stops a good distance from the town.

 

[Sandra]

Yami nodded. That would be a Good idea. She sits there quietly when the bus stops.


"I am going to prowl. I'll help if I need help." Before anybody could answer her and as angel opened the doors, Yami ran out. Nobody could have stopped her at her rate. She then slowed down as she got closer and closer.

 

[azimuth]

Zack lands next to her. "go back to the truck. I don't want you to go in there until I've checked it out. I just have a very bad feeling that if we go in there, we might never come back out."

 

[Sandra]

As if something shocked her she snapped at him, almost pinning him. "No! I will not go back to the truck! I have to find something... It's calling me...." She said quietly and turned around, back to the town, walking slowly.

 

[azimuth]

Zack would lay there for a few seconds, shocked by her actions. He gets up and stops her again. "at least come grab a rifle or something. At least do that. For me."

 

[Sandra]

Yami would not listen to him. "No. I... I.. Know this place is not dangerous." She stuttered. "This seemed s-so familiar... S-so familiar that I know, I just know,there isn't any danger...." She looked back at him. "Do you trust me?" Her eyes gleamed while she waited for a answer.

 

[azimuth]

Zack would answer by wrapping an arm under her and carrying her back to the truck. "not without a gun in your hands. Even if you think it's safe, I want us each to have one as a precaution."

 

[Sandra]

Yami would respond by slashing his face, leaving claw gashes on his cheek. Now.. She was out of control. She kicked and scratch out of his arms and ran, "So.. You don't trust me. I see." She whispered. Not believing what she had done. Yami swallowed a lump down her throat as she ran.

 

[azimuth]

Zack reels back at the slash. She narrowly missed his eye. After a second, he flies after her and tackles, grabbing her head and forcing an eye to eye stare. "I trust you with my life. But I don't want you to lose yours because you are being an idiot. Can we please go back and get some rifles. Please."

 

[Sandra]

She looks at the gash on his cheek. She felt too guilty.. "F-fine." She muttered, morphing and wrapping her arms around his neck, but she took one hand and wiped some blood off his cheek... "I'm so sorry..." She said about to cry. "I'm out of control.... I never wanted to hurt you..." She closed her eyes, felling very guilty.

 

[azimuth]

He also wraps his hands around her. "I know you didn't. Something is up with you, and I want to find out. But I want a rifle in my hands in case it is a trap of some kind. Come on." he walks her back to the truck.


Ander would be on top of the truck and Micheal sitting in the rear door. "what was that?" asks Andrew from the roof, not lowering his binoculars.


"nothing. As you were." Zack orders, and they comply. Zack jumps past Micheal and begins loading an SMG for yami and himself.

 

[Sandra]

Yami takes a cloth, the end was dipped in cleaning alcohol. Without no warning she dabbed the cloth on his gashes, she whimpered about how much blood as soaked up. ".... I'm sorry, once again..." Her ears dropped. Her tail dragged against the ground

 

[azimuth]

Zack wines, but allows her. He attaches a touch light attachment to yami's gun just as she apologized. He lay it down and gave her another hug. "it's alright. You're have a rough, confusing day. Let's just do this and get out in one piece, okay?" he releases her, returning to preparing a third gun as a second for himself. This one a larger assault rifle. An AUG to be precise.

 

[Sandra]

Yami smiled and nodded, but sighed. She sat there quietly waiting for him to finish, which would be soon, "...those walls creeped me out...." She sId quietly, mostly to herself,

 

[azimuth]

"just try to ignore them." the wind picks up a little.


"err, guys? "comes Andrews voice from the roof.


"shut it, Andy." comes angels from underneath the truck somewhere."I need concentration."

 

[Sandra]

Yami raised a brow, "Sorry Angel, but, what is it Andrew?" Yami sighed and tapped her right foot. If it was something bad.... No. It can't be something bad... Her guts told her.

 

[azimuth]

"tornado!!!" just then, the wind hit hard. The truck rocks on its axles. Cursing would be heard from most directions as the crew scramble to get back in the truck. Zack does a quick scan for scarlet. She sits on the passenger seat and narrowly dodges a wrench thrown her way. Angel turns the engine over and it catches almost immediately. Micheal struggles to reach the truck as the wind picks up even more, so Zack reach out with one of rifles in hand to extend his reach. Micheal grabs it and Zack pulls him in and closes the door. Angel starts driving. Right for the town.

 

[Sandra]

Yami's eyes widened. Well...s he didn't expect that. "Um?!..." She said clinging to Zack, ear flattened and her tail wrapped around his leg.

 

[azimuth]

"claws, claw, claws." Zack says as he gets jabbed by her claws as she clings. It's much quieter with the door closed but the truck is still rocking violently.


Angel drives as fast as she dared, what with the wind throwing her off course a lot. Shortly the buffeting gets gently as they reach the town and park in an allay with a line of sight to where they had been parked. The funnel, of the thinner variety, passes over that spot exactly.

 

[Sandra]

"Sorry,sorry,sorry..." She said unhinging her claws from him. "So- um..." She looked at Zack, and hoped her claws didn't make him bleed. She unwrapped her tail around his leg and sighed quietly.

 

[azimuth]

There would be tiny droplets of blood leaking from his arm, but nothing really major. Something like this would be almost gone by the next day. Zack grabs yami's tail and wraps it back around his leg. He smiles to her. "I didn't say tail, tail, tail now, didn't I?" his smiles vanishes as he looks out at the now raging storm. "that came from nowhere..."


"says say there isn't a Strom out there. Somethings up in this town." comes angels voice from the front.

 

[Sandra]

Yami paled as he grabbed her tail, to be honest, that was her weak spot, pull her tail and she's a goner. But all he did was re-wrap it around his leg. She smiled and looked out the window as well. "Woah.."

 

[azimuth]

"judging by just looking at it, we're gonna be here for a while." says angel.


"and I was looking forward to blowing this town to smitherins... No? Okay. "Andrew says sarcastically.


"you alright, Micheal?" Zack asks him. Micheal responds while breathing not quite heavily, but more than he normally would. "yeah, fine. How did we not see that coming?".
