"Let me try." Said Spring. She barked at the mutant "Hello. Please can you leave us alone? I'll give you food."

Storm crossed her fingers.

Alyssa sighed as she walked down the street. Thinkingheabily, she turned right, and began to hear the faint noise of chattering people. She froze and looked around; spotting a small group of people she walked in that direction somewhat slowly. As she cautiously approached, she realized they might be dangerous, and vanished. She quietly walked around the group in a circle, assessing the situation. Apperrently, there was a dog too, and spthe dog seemed familiar, somehow. She snapped her fringes as she realized- it was the shapeshifting kid, she'd seen them before. She realized her fatal mistake- she should have never snapped her fingers.

Sarah heard a snap. She looked at where the sound was, but she just saw air. She then smelt a wierd smell, the one she smelt after she got back home. Her eyes widened with realization. She tried to run, nut she stumbled, getting herself splattered with mud. She tried to get up, but she slipped. Sighing, she finally got up and dusted herself, preparing to talk, or just not respond.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 12:20 PM

Alyssa cursed under her breath. She shouldn't have been so careless; she knew that. A girl scrambled away from her, but got splattered with mud as she fell. Alyssa stayed vanished, but instead asked, "Who are you? And no," she added. "I'm not a ghost."

Storm heard the voice. ''Seems you have powers too. Show yourself.'' said Storm, emotionless.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 12:24 PM

"Why should I?" Alyssa replied angrily. "You wouldn't have even noticed me if I hadn't snapped my fingers. I can leave, and you won't know where I go."

emeraldstar • 6 April 2017 at 12:31 PM

Storm grunted. So she wants to argue, does she? Thought Storm. She snapped her fingers and the wind howled and streaks of lightining appeared in the sky. ''If you want to be a survivor I'd be careful if I were you.'' she said angrily.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 12:33 PM

@emeraldstar
Alyssa frowned. "Do you really WANT me to reveal myself?"

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 12:50 PM

It was silent for a moment. Then Dallas spoke up, a smile spreading across her face. "Fine, I'm in. But don't you forget our deal. Sixty forty. Got it?"

Caspian rolled his eyes, but didn't look as tense anymore. His anxiety quickly returned though. "Ok, I say we leave camp for now. Then come back tonight for the ammunition."

The two teens walked out of the building and into the dusty streets. The temperature had seemed to slightly rise since the time they had entered. Walking to the edge of the camp, one of the inhabitants suspiciously looked at the pair. Caspian put on his signature fake, friendly smile and approached the the man.

"No need to worry, trouble isn't on my mind. After all, why bring mayhem when there is so little safe places left?" Caspian thoughtfully asked. The individual didn't look one hundred percent convinced.

"And your buddy, there?" The man questioned, motioning toward Dallas. "Have him speak for himself."

The girl looked at her partner then back at the man. Caspian knew her voice would give her away and would probably make the man even more suspicious. Before he could say anything though, Dallas swiftly moved her hands in small, quick motions in front of her. Caspian took the hint.

"He's mute and uses sign language, but says 'No trouble here,'" he nonchalantly said to the man, who looked satisfied enough and nodded. The pair continued walking, the air continuously getting more and more humid.

"You'd think they wouldn't care so much if you left," Dallas muttered after a safe distance. The boy stayed quiet for sometime, his smile gone as though it was never there to begin with. Finally he replied, "Like I said, 'Little safe places left.' It would be a bit strange for someone to leave." He was slightly aware of her nod of acknowledgement, as he was focused on figures in the distance.

Caspian stopped walked, causing his companion to do the same. She looked in the direction of his gaze and a smirk appeared on her face. Glancing at the boy, she teased, "Oh look, your favorite thing!"

He shot her a glare and grumbled through a cough, "I hate people."

(Not sure who is subscribed at this point... ^^")

emeraldstar • 6 April 2017 at 12:59 PM

Storm laughed. ''Obviously.''

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 1:21 PM

Alyssa frowned. She unvanished enough that she was partially invisible; she looked like a misty outline. "I'm not going to unvanish any further until I trust you."

emeraldstar • 6 April 2017 at 1:24 PM

Storm rolled her eyes. ''Fine. I can't help you then. Come on Spring, we've got other places to be.'' said Storm.

Spring looked at her sister. ''I'm not moving. I wish you'd be nicer to people!'' she yelled.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 1:32 PM

Alyssa sighed. Things would never get easier, would they? "These are hard times, and people to trust are harder to find. You have no idea how many times I've been stabbed in the back- figuratively and literally."

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 1:45 PM

"We should go say hi to them," Dallas whispered. Caspian looked like he was about to hit her.

"Are you crazy?! Absolutely not! You know how much people annoy me! You're lucky I consider you a "friend" and that's in very heavy quotations!" He quietly growled back.

"What if they have supplies or goodies? Just think of it like a mystery raffle or whatever they used to call it back before all of this. You could be walking away from the jackpot!" Dallas could see in his eyes that he was considering it. He glared at the group that seemed to be arguing and his expression hardened.

"No. I've got enough to worry about," Caspian mumbled, walking in a different direction from the yelling.

"Come on!" Dallas whined, her posture slumping a bit from disappointment.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 1:48 PM

Ignoring whether or not they provided an answer, she spun around, but froze as she saw two more figures off I the distance. She vanishe fully, then walked to them to eavesdrop lightly on their conversation. They seemed to be arguing about whether or not they should go to the group. This time, Alyssa wasn't going to snap her fingers...

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 1:59 PM

"Is it because you're sick? Both you and I know it isn't contagious when you are like this," Dallas asked. It had been forever since she had, had a good thieving. Plus groups usually had interesting stuff, or at least in her experience.

"We know that, but they don't! Last time we tried to tell people it wasn't, they didn't believe us and I almost got shot so I 'wouldn't spread the disease!'" He yelled back. Caspian could remember it clearly, not that he wanted to of course, and it was a memory that stuck with him everywhere. "Can we just drop it. Please?"

The two stared at each other, mentally having a battle to see who would look away first. Who would give in.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 2:04 PM

Alyssa picked up a pebble- she wanted to have some fun first, before talking to them. All they would see was a floating pebble. She tossed it in the air, and caught it with her opposite hand.

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 2:22 PM

Caspian was the first to notice the mysterious pebble floating on its own. As her opponent looked away, Dallas triumphantly said, "Ha! Now we have to- wait are you looking at?" Turing her head as well, she realized what cause him to lose.

"Hmm. Last time I checked, pebbles aren't supposed to float," Dallas wondered out loud. Moving a hand to her hip, she took out one of her guns and pointed it at the pebble. Looking at Caspian, she asked, "Should we fix it?"

"Dallas..." He warned.

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 2:23 PM

"Wait! Don't shoot, please." She tossed the pebble over her shoulder, then partially vanished so that all they could see was her outline.

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 2:34 PM

"Calm down! I wasn't actually going to kill you! Gosh, I'm sorry I scared ya!" Dallas laughed, tucking her gun away. She looked at Caspian, able to take a good guess as to what he was thinking: Show time.

The boy gently swatted at Dallas. "Well can you blame the poor kid? How many times do I have to tell you not to play with guns! They are for protection only! Geez!" Turning to the half visible girl, he gently smiled. "Sorry about her. She has a bad sense of humor. Anyway, nice trick you can do there! It's pretty neat." Truth be told, Caspian was actually intrigued. It wasn't often that he met someone with powers like himself. Dallas was the only other person he knew. He wondered how long she had been listening though...

flowerlynx • 6 April 2017 at 2:58 PM

Alyssa nervously responded, "It's my powers. Um... I've only been listening since about... 2 minutes ago. I didn't follow you, I was from that group over there. They were kinda rude, so I went here instead." She motioned over her shoulder as she said this.

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 3:09 PM

"Yeah, people can act rude sometimes. But everyone deserves a second chance! Why don't you try again?" He friendly suggested.

Dallas glared at Caspian. She knew exactly what he was trying to do and she wouldn't allow him to get off the hook that easily. She had won the staring contest after all. Glancing at the group of people then back at the girl, she said, "We can go with you if you want. Besides, it's been a while since we met new people."

@carter Sure. Alyssa came to join the group and her and Storm had an argument. So Alyssa went off and spied on Caspian and Dallas.

@pitch1226 @emeraldstar
So Hope, Storm and Spring are all still together with Helix? Or has everyone left and I should just jump in somewhere else?))

pitch1226 • 6 April 2017 at 3:33 PM

@carter Honestly, I have no idea. Unless Emerald knows, I would just jump in somewhere...?

emeraldstar • 6 April 2017 at 3:36 PM

@carter @pitch1226 I've just moved Spring back to Helix so they can talk. I'm now moving Storm to Caspian and Dallas.

Spring looked at Helix. "Please help us. I'm not a danger to your owner, I don't know your owner.. We need shelter, otherwise we can't survive." She barked.

Storm walked up to the three. "Hey there."

carter • 6 April 2017 at 3:39 PM

@emeraldstar Alrighty ^u^
-

Helix looked over the human and nodded. Barking a quick, "Alright." before turning and taking a few steps towards the shelter. He turned back to make sure she would follow, at any rate it wasn't his shelter and there would always be more. It wouldn't really matter in the end if they messed it up or ran it into the ground. Helix barked a few more times and started off towards the safe house, tail swishing behind him as he went.

emeraldstar • 6 April 2017 at 3:42 PM

"Thanks" Barked Spring. "Everyone! We've found our key to shelter, come on! We need to get away from the mutant and the danger." She yelled.

Storm rolled her eyes. "Why do you always have to be in charge?" Yelled Storm at Spring, ignoring her.
