 Somewhere in the commons, we find the large green dragon waddling between the small crowd of naked villagers. Because of her bout with the dreaded stealth bots, Dulcy was covered in bandaged, from her knees, arms, head, and even her tail and chest. But with her, holding onto her good arm, was the young cheetah, Fora, who was dragged into Dulcy's little tour. "And here we are in the commons. You know, the place where alot of people live and stuff. Oh, and my hut is right over there!" |

 Fora made a mental note on where Miss Dulcy's hut was but other than that she wasn't learning much... other than that trying to keep up with a dragon was not easy. Fora nodded everyonce in a while, even though she was only partly listening to what her guide was telling her. Fora didn't know what to think about this village, she'd never been to any other villages before, but it looked less remarkable than she imagined. "What do people do for fun here?" |

 Off not far away, outside the fence posts that housed that particular section of huts, a teal wolf was slumped over against a tree in sleep. It was fairly apparent he had probably stopped there to rest before nodding off entirely. |

And that's where the large dragoness was about to walk by. "And to your right we find...that new guy...uhhhh... I never caught his name." |

Fora glanced to the right, just trying to get faces down... but... he looked like someone... Fora's eyes widened. It couldn't be.. she saw him get put in that machine. The little cheetah stopped completely in her tracks. " Lance?" She just stared, trying to make sure it was really him. |

Lance's ear twisted a bit at the mention of his name, but otherwise he remained asleep. |

She was almost positive that was Lance. Fora pulled away from Miss Dulcy and started over... If he got away... then maybe... She started running, not even noticing her ankle now, "LANCE!!!" She was swelling with hope, if Lance got away, then maybe her parents did too. |

It was never a good idea to wake Lance up suddenly. Even as far back as when he was a child anyone who knew him knew you didn't wake him suddenly. Heck, even waking him gently had its hazards if not done properly. As the cheetah girl yelled out his name and tackled him, Lance's eyes shot open and he pulled down a surprised gulp of air. Conscious thought not having yet taken hold red seemed to flash across his eyes as he turned and reflexively threw a punch as his 'attacker' to knock her off.

[dice=7] Fora, very luckily, was lower than his swing. She didn't, however, miss the fact that the fist that just flew over her head... was NOT supposed to be metal. Fora let out a yelp and scrambled off him and backwards as quickly as she could. She stared at him with huge eyes and her jaw was slightly slack. "L..Lance?...You..what..." She.. couldn't quite manage a sentance just yet..[rand=717433606857403100870286915867746297427124986563662654370138574075] |

Without a second to spare after that, Dulcy's tail prepared to snag Lance right up to her angry eye level. [dice=12][rand=9227195012738785928513152544215148588103483881786584714941382574] |

[dice=10] Lance blinked sleepily, not really quite sure what had just happened yet. Before he'd even found enough time to yawn, however, he suddenly found himself being snagged from his spot and suspended into the air. "HEY!" he shouted, reflexively grabbing at her tail and trying to pull himself loose. Well, he was certainly awake now.

[dice=12] Even in her condition, Dulcy still managed to keep her grip. "What do you think you were doing?? You almost hurt her!!" [rand=7242136362987845469339975415043246814157994321066011670635516090322] |

Fora looked up at the display, still somewhat shocked. Now that she was away from him.. she could really see him. It was definately Lance... but it didn't look like he completely got away from the machine. "..." Her ears laid back against her head, she didn't know what to say. |

Fora scrambled up to her feet and was next to the dragon in a heartbeat, "Miss Dulcy, Please! Don't Hurt Lance! It was an accident!" She then looked up at the teal wolf. He might know where her parents were... and what happened to the village. She had to know... |

Glancing at Fora, Dulcy then dropped Lance. "I wasn't gonna hurt him; just shocked he almost hurt you. You REALLY gotta be more careful with that arm!" |

Lance tried to catch himself as he hit the ground, stumbled, and then collapsed onto his behind. He still wasn't used to not being able to feel his feet, and what's more, he was tired. He groaned sleepily now that the initial shock had worn off and rubbed at his face. "Man, what the @#%$ are you talking about?" he grumbled, before glancing around at his surroundings and blinking. "And where the %$^# am I?" |

Dulcy arched a quizzical brow. "Uh...Knothole?...But what I mean is you almost punched her here!!" She gestured her hands at Fora. |

Lance shook his head trying to clear the haze not having gotten a decent rest over the last few days had given him and stood. Looking around at his surroundings he... vaguely... remembered walking through here. Wasn't there a reason he was heading down that path? And then he glanced at the tree he'd been leaning against earlier. Wait... didn't he stop to rest there earlier? "... Ugh... Man... don't tell me I fell asleep out here or something." And that's when he finally looked down and noticed the cheetah girl. He blinked. |

Fora looked up at him and gave him a sheepish smile, "Sorry, I didn't know you were asleep." She didn't know what else to say. |

"Uh..." Lance idly scratched as his head out of habit. He immediately recognized the girl; she was one of the younger residents of Greenpine before the village ended up trashed. Just how many people managed to get away from there? ... And how many of them seemed to have ended up in this area...? Setting that aside, he pondered for a moment looking for her name. "Fora?" he looked to either side. "Uh, yeah, it's fine. How'd you get here?" |

The injured dragoness looked at Lance...then Fora...then Lance...and so on. "You knw him, Fora?" |

Fora considered Lance's question, but looked up at Dulcy before answering, she figured she'd get both out of the way with at the same time. She nodded, "Yeah, We're both from Greenpine ... I .. wasn't in the village.. when it got attacked... I came back and.. there were these ..robots everywhere and.. everybody was being put in those machines..." Fora suddenly felt very small and helpless. Her eyes fell to the ground near the edge of her feet, and her hair fell over her face. She prayed they wouldn't notice she was about to cry. "So... I ran..." |

She was away. Good, that probably meant she hadn't seen or heard what Dash had. A seemingly concerned look spread over his face. "Well, at least you're okay, yeah?" |
|

Post by AnT on Feb 20, 2008 1:29:36 GMT -5
With such pity she felt for the girl, Dulcy laid the tip of her tail on her shoulder like a hand, since her arms were too short. Plus, her body will hurt if she bent down. "Don't worry. We'll get them back someday, Fora." |

Fora nodded before looking up. A slightly strained smile covered her features. "I'm okay, honest. I'm just happy I'm not the only one that got away.... " A sudden thought crossed her mind, if LANCE got away.. then..., she looked back at the teal wolf, "Did.. anybody else.. get away?" |

"Well," Lance answered, "Alice is around here somewhere. Dash, erm, was here." |

Post by AnT on Feb 22, 2008 18:38:51 GMT -5
Dulcy wasn't one to hear gossip or news, so she haven't heard that Dash was captured...though she did know he vanished. "Didn't he dissapeared? I think Sally was gonna try to find him, but I didn't ask how it went." |

"He disappeared?" Her brows furrowed into a concerned expression, "I hope he's okay... he's got REALLY bad luck." YAY FOR STATING THE OBVIOUS She was just glad she wasn't really alone. "How did you get away Lance?" |
