SO MANY CHATS

I mean, hi! XD

How have you been? ^^

Lol what? X'D

Hello Fade! :D

Quite a number of my friends have posted chats in the last hour. xD

Busy, busy but my day job work week is over! XD and next week looks pretty light so far. But besides from work stuff I'm doing great today! And I'm back in a drawing mood again x3

How about you?

Shadow is the only person to post a chat for me xP

Oh lol xDD it's that time of day I guess

Blood!!! Guess what I have Time Now! I'm so excited! XD

Yay! So you can enjoy a Christmas break, sort of! XD I can't wait to see what art you'll make!

I'm coming close to a finish on the collab; I only have to color the characters now. :'D Apart from that, I'm trying to work on more Valkiers.

Hi Blood! Lol XD

Yay time! Woop! xD

I'm working on a collab as well, I hope I have it done in time for New Years

Time Now?

I love the Valkiers

Hi!

Woo good luck Blood!

I can't wait to see your collab Fade, it's probably a hundred times more impressive than what I'm doing x'D

Aww thanks Blood!

Sort of I still have my morning job which debating if I should go in tonight so I have tomorrow completely off or just work the morning like I normally do xD
And I can't believe it my family going to a Christmas Eve party O.o we almost never go and do stuff x'D

Eeeee that's awesome Fade! I bet it be spectacular! X3
Oooooo I can't wait to see the next one you do! I still been trying to think of an awesome names for my and a background scene so I can make it reflect on him :s

Lol X'D I about quit while working on the background though - perspective and landscape together are murderous. TvT

late comments cough

Mine doesn't have a real background, it's more cramming characters in heheh

If I were in your place, I'd want to take today off. x'D

Thank you! Ooh yeah, that'll be epic! A forest would be really epic for the mirrors, though it might be a challenge too.

Yaeh! I got time! All week I been so busy I pretty much pass out when I got home and then get up in the morning and do it all over again that why I haven't been very chatiw or haven't done much in art stuff but Im not tired today XD

It amazing though Blood! X3

Hi Ash!

Ooh nice nice! It's neater that way because you can see all the characters better lol

Yo Specco!

Oooo that would be pretty cool! I could try a forest scene, hmmm now how do I what to manipulate the reflection? Now that is the question! Hahaha this will be fun! XD

I've got so many characters to do still.. hmmm
I've been lazy, I wrote my exam yesterday and am finally on break, so I can start drawing again.

Yahoo! For break! XD freedom!

Basically draw what is in front of the mirror. The struggle is, the dragon is basically a 3D mirror, so you'll be drawing literally everything around it. ;u;

My tip would be, plates on top reflect the sky, sides reflect surroundings, belly reflect ground, and insides of legs reflect belly and each other.

Shadow has her work cut out for her with that mirror monster x'D

I know and it's going to be amazing! The thing is how do I what the mirror effects to look, in how Stuff been then twist the shiny and fog glare Stuff like that :)

bloop

It will be glorious!!!!

Mythic!! Hi!

Ooooh sounds epic *u*

Hi Myth! What's up?

I'm going to doodle my boy now well we chat xD

I suck at draw my Valkier x'D

Hello Shadow!
Hi Fade, the sky is what is up XD * puts on sunglasses *

I Griff!!

He's so simple though, I love the bone guy x'D

I'm fine Myth! Hbu?

Raiden lol

The bone one has a different look because it's one of the five most significant ones. There are three more that you can probably try for in DTAs. e-e

there we go

lol hi Fade and Spec!

Lol xDD that it is Mythic! I'm doing great! XD

I think he look awesome Blood!

Hi Griffin!

I'm dying pretty good! I'm rather excited for Christmas! X3
Hello Griff!

Ooh yes, I'll definitely draw Bonechime some time

Oooooo boy doing a semi close up this is going to be fun xD

Ooooh

Good to know you're doing great, Shadow!

Do you want to Build a Snowman?

come on lets go and play!

I don't see you anymore, it's like you've gone away

Howdy, and happy holidays! How're y'all doin'?

we used to be best buddies, and now were not

I wish you would tell me why~

Hi Aggron! I'm doing good

do you want to build a snowman?

Lol hi Aggron!

It doesn't have to be a snowman

hello Aggron!

go away

(don't literally go away, plz :( )

hmmm might have to go line's or realism will see

Okay bye....

( lol xDD I'm not )

Yay we did it! (sorta)
I had to search the lyrics up 4 times... oops...

Oh my goodness you two...

Lol xDD I have some song kind of memorized especially Disney

Hey, Shadow. Glad to hear you're all good. Hey, Fade! how you doin'?

yup! that just happened! XD

Hey there, @Mythic!

i have some songs that aren't by Disney memorized. for example, Believer is in memorized!

I'm doing well, Aggron! What have you been up to?

@Fade Glad to hear it. I haven't been up to much. Most of my family's down with the flu.

@Aggron Ahh, bummer! I hope you're doing well though!

Oooo that cool @Mythic! X3 I love songs

@Fade Oh, don't worry about me. I appear to be immune. I've been exposed to the pathogen since last friday, when my father contracted it, and I have had no symptoms whatsoever.

@Aggron That's strange, but awesome! Lucky you!

What's your favourite song, @Shadow?

Hmmmmm that a really hard one, it all depends on my mood, but I like a lot of the old movie classes but really I like all different music

Ooh those are intimidating questions

@Fade It is odd, isn't it? I thought the flu virus changes every year, and that no one was immune. Maybe I've just been really careful?

My music is everywhere really. My favorites come from my favorite artists

Fade how did you imagine the mirror? How mirror technical am I supposed to go? X'D

That about the same for me @Mythic except I can't remember names for the life of me x'D

Uhh, I had imagined the reflections being mostly clear, but my picture turned out a bit more foggy because I had no clue what I was doing. It's really up to you!

@Aggron Perhaps! Keep doing whatever you're doing. xD

Ok, well hmmm maybe I'll post the WIP

No problem Spec!

Oh my goodness some of these characters are way too tiny

Lookit little Eltanin

No worries Ash!

What about Eltanin? O.o

@Fade I most certainly will. :)

He's super tiny in my collab... Sorry. X'D My fault for making the picture three-dimensional

Ok Shadow!

I posted it x'D

You like Eltanin, don't ya Fadey? x)

Nevermind, ignore me. I just forgot because I'm watching Harry potter XD

XDD

..... That moment you realize you probably clean about 20 years each day. At least that me that is x'D

Mirrors not years

Hey, gtg. I'll be back real soon though. If y'all are going to RP, I don't want to miss it. XD

Oh ym goodness XD

I'm all out of conversation starters...
Anybody got anything to say?

Alright Aggron! x)

Lol xDD
I'm not sure ether Mythic

I guess we can start an RP maybe?

Yes!

Sure! Although I may be slow-ish

Ok I'll probably be a bit slow to seen I'm bad at multitasking x'D

Ok what would you guys like to do?

Hmmm
I don't know

I'm really bad at starting and I have to think on what characters to use to x'D

Fantasy? modern time? Apocalyptic? Medieval?

Hmm, some action would be fun. e.e

Ooh apocalyptic!

YES Apocalyptic!

Lol ok

What characters, now?

I'm gonna use #BHCaptain #BHAiriah and #BHNina

For myself I'm thinking #FGHawk and #FGHunter or #FGNaaji

Ooh cool cool!

I really need to do more drawings of Nina, I love her so much <3

I'm glad you do <3

hmmm don't know what OC to use xp got any ideas?

Carter and Chiho!

#SpCarter #SpChiho

Really? I guess I can throwing my half Blood and odd battle cat x'D

Or #SPAlfred x'D

I like them, and I think they'd fit this setting OK x"D

Apocalyptic?! Yeaaaaaaah!

Ok xD this will be fun, someone else start it off though I suck at it, unless if it's a continuation

Imma use dis one. #AADianne

Welcome back, Aggron! Just in time!

#FGHawk sat on the ledge of a rugged brick building, distant gaze on the torn and decayed city landscape around him. It was afternoon, although it was hard to tell with the sickly grey clouds above. Behind him, his brother Hunter paced across the flat rooftop, bow in hand.

(If that doesn't work enough, I'll do something else or let someone else start off)

(Ooh yass Dianne!)

( @Fade Oh, you know of this character? Reply inbound.)

{Below the building Hawk sat, a faint noise came out, as something ran by. Whatever it was rounded the corner and entered an abandoned building.}

(I don't know much about her, but I've looked over her ref and she seems pretty cooL!)

( @Fade Well, I hope she won't disappoint. XD She'll be slightly different from her Shacklestone ref regarding her occupation and motives, but everything else should be the same.)

Hawk threw a glance back at his twin. "Stop pacing, will you? You're making me anxious."

Hunter stopped and met his gaze. "I'm bored. Wish something would happen already in this cursed place."

"Well, I'D rather not, and it's better for both of us when we don't run into any trou--" The boy broke off when he detected a noise from below. Quickly, he turned and cast alert eyes over the rubbage below.

"What?" Baffled, Hunter approached and peered over the ledge as well.

(When you draw your Xanos but she looks more like Godzilla than a Xanos)

(I look forward to seeing her!)

(Lol)

{From the nearby abandoned building, the sounds of someone rummaging through the ruin can be heard. They are quite faint, but they are there, never the less.}

Hunter pieced together what was going on before Hawk had said anything. "Let's go find them," the teen determined with a grin.

but Hawk grabbed his arm before he could make a move. "No way! Who knows what kind of person that could be?"

Hunter shook his brother off and started away. "I'm just gonna take a peek, alright?" Without waiting for a reply, he found a patch of vines along the wall and began to scale down.

Hawk hissed a warning, but finally picked up his crossbow and satchel and hustled after his twin.

(It has become very quiet)

#SpCarter was walking through the Bering Street of the City, the half Blood rub the back of his head // not sure what world I'm in but it looks like something happened here a long time ago...// He cautiously keeps his eyes on the decaying buildings around him.

-

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" a female voice screams from the sky. #SpChiho was feet falling in her humanoid form, the blue battle cat hit a worn out sign on a building, breaking it and falling to the ground making a loud crash...

-

#SPAlfred was wondering wide-eyed through the streets, not so much afraid but more Curious than anything else

@Fade {As they got closer, the sounds got louder. There was the sound of rubble shifting violently, then the voice of a woman. Clearly, she was unaware of Hawk and Hunter's close proximity.} ???: "Jackpot."

(Chiho always have a dramatic entrance.... Always)

Once he was near enough, Hunter dropped to the ground, nocked an arrow into his bow, then crept on silent feet toward the source of the noise. Hawk trailed behind him, his crossbow ready in hand.

Heart pounding in exhilaration, Hunter peered around the corner of a building, clueless of what to expect but eager nonetheless.

(I love her already)

(Is Blood gonna join?)

#BHBlue had arrived in the apocalyptic world, wandering towards Carter unknowingly, he felt out of place and on edge. //I definitely stick out here// he shuffles his wings and continues down the street.
-
#BHAiriah had ditched Captain and Nina, looking around frantically when she heard screaming, her long tail swirled up dust as she moved in a circle, trying to locate the scream. "Hello?" she calls

(Nope)

{As they peer around the corner, they see the figure of a woman. She's dressed in boots, thick canvas pants, road leathers and a long black hooded cloak. Her face was covered by a black cloth and her eyes hidden by sunglasses, to protect from the dust. Still unaware of Hunter and Hawk, she walks into the room where she had cleared an appreciable amount of rubble blocking the entrance, and out of hunter's line of sight. The room itself was chocked full of canned foods, unraided, due to the rubble sealing it in.}

(Ok)

When Hunter's gaze fell on the cause of the noise, a smirk appeared across his face. //A woman, huh?... Now this is interesting.//

His brother, on the other hand, was attracted to the hundreds of canned foods the woman was looting. //Wow... We could definitely do with some of that.//
"Hunter," he began in a low voice. "Once she leaves, let's go in and get--"

Too late, Hunter had already stepped out into the open and addressed the woman. "You keeping that all to yourself?" he challenged. His nocked bow remained by his side.

(Autocorrect is determined to keep me from finishing my comment)

The silver eye turn the corner of one of streets and spotted the very decorative Vaseterm
// A pureblood Royal here? of all places?// he pounded, and approached Blue cautiously not knowing what his View on half Bloods could be, Carter was in his disguise but his hair still was a silvery blue a long with his eyes, and the White Strip of his war paint was still on his face " your a Vaseterm?" He question even though he already knew the answer.

-

"Not my most graceful Landing, but not my worst ether..." Chiho moaned amongst the rubble she was in after her crash landing. The battle cat try free herself but was stuck in some of the debris " Oh! cat litter! " She shouted and keep trying to free herself with no such luck

#FGHermosa crept along one fractured street after another, utterly and completely lost in the post-apocalyptic maze. "Oh, where is everybody?" she whispered anxiously, the tendrils on her back twisting restlessly to match her mood. Her little paws made a surprising stir over the rubble as she headed Alfred's way.

Blue looked to the half blood when Carter spoke to him, "Oh me? Yeah" he smiles, studying the Vaseterm before him, "Are you one as well? By the looks of it, a half blood?"
-
Airiah rounded a building to find the cat lady stuck in the debris. She trots over and sits in front of her, "Hello! Do you need some help?"

{The woman stopped in the middle of the storage room at Hunter's voice. She turned slowly and looked Hunter over before speaking.}"Well, I found it, so it's mine. But, the rules of salvage probably don't matter much to a couple of raiders like you."

"'Course not." Hunter stepped over a pile of debris and came nearer in order to study her person for any disguised weapons. "Since we have the upper hand, you may peacefully stay there and we'll take what we want."

"Hunter..." Hawk murmured. //It doesn't have to be done this way...//

Alfred was just gawking at the building not even paying attention to where he was going " you know what you find in place like this... Zombies, that be kinda cool! I could see Zombies at a place like this, it's old and creepy quiet no other living thing, to be se- " he talking to himself when the cyborg Dragon ran into Hermosa

{The woman smiled from under the cloth on her face.}"You followed a shadowy blur to find me here, didn't you? Something running through the streets that barely made a noise, yes? Do you honestly think it was I who was being that reckless?" {After she spoke, a few small bits of rubble came down onto Hunter's shoulder. It was caused by a skeleton dressed in rags, with glowing blue eyes jumping down at Hunter, poised to land on top of him, feet first.}

Carter smirked and shook his head " it's that obvious" he said and broke his disguise, the half bloods decorative wings burst from his back and his horns appeared on his head, the silver eyes clothing changed to the Vaseterms style but not as flashy as Blues was. Carter put a hand on his hip " I'm what called a silver eye a human half blood, but I wasn't expecting to see other silverblood out here "

-

Chiho look up at the brightly green dragon " oh Hi! " She said, " uhhhh yeah, I'm kinda stuck, after I fell from the sky " she explained

Hermosa squeaked when she collided with something larger than herself, sending her rolling into a pile of rubble. Instead of climbing out, however, she huddled within the debris and peeked out tenaciously. "I-I-I'm sorry!" she wailed as she gawked at Alfred.

(Oh yeah Hermosa's only about as tall as a person's waist)

Blue watched as Carter broke his disguise, "Ah cool! I've never met a Silver Eye before, that's awesome!" he grins, "I'm just a pureblooded royal, though that's probably obvious" he extends his hand, "The name is Blue, nice to meet you"
-
Airiah - who is not a green dragon - dug Chiho out of the ground and plucked her up. "Well why did you fall?" she asks, setting the cat down on the ground gently

(Aww she's so cute, I love Hermosa, but she was pain to draw)

Hunter glanced up in time to spot the skeleton falling toward him, but not in time to react. Luckily, Hawk's crossbow was ready and he fired a bolt at his brother's attacker - though, he wasn't sure what good it would do to stop a falling creature.

(She is a pain, isn't she? XD i still look at that painting from time to time!)

( be right back, I got to eat something )

(I feel I could do a better drawing sometime, it annoys me. When I get a tablet, I'll make sure the first thing I draw is Hermosa...better for you :P)

(Ooooh I can't wait! *v*)

(Ok Shadow!)

{The skeleton took the bolt, which messed up its landing. Instead of landing feet first, it landed in a haphazard heap on top of Hunter. The woman saw that Hawk used up his bolt, and proceeded to charge him with a wooden beam from a nearby rubble pile.}

With a yelp, Hunter collapsed underneath the skeleton and was welcome with a face-full of dirt and gravel. The teen growled as he twisted around and tried to shove his opponent off.

Hawk didn't have time to retrieve another bolt as the woman advanced. "Hunter!" Desperately, he raised crossbow and swung it - and its form warped into a metal rod as it traveled through the air. His newly transformed weapon clashed with her wooden beam.

{The woman was surprised to see the crossbow change its form. Shaking it off, she continued to strike at Hawk with the beam while yelling something out in an unknown language. The skeleton scrambled and grabbed Hunter's bow and tried to force it against his neck, in an attempt to both pin him and keep him from firing any arrows.}

Hawk scrambled to parry each attack, although with his heavier rod and lack of strength in his arms, he was quickly falling back. Finally, he tripped over a fallen beam and he toppled backwards, weapon falling out of his reach.

Hunter had nearly forgotten about his bow - until his attacker tried to use it against him. He grappled on and worked to wrest it free. "Let go, you freaking zombie!" At last, in the skirmish, his foot found the skeleton's chest, and he kicked out as hard as he could.

{The woman did not hesitate to take advantage of the situation. She leapt over the beam and landed her heel right onto Hawk's chest with all of her weight. She then followed that up by striking Hawk in the face with the end of the beam. Meanwhile, the skeleton flew off of Hunter and landed into the corner, but not from a lack of trying on the skeleton. Hunter's kick had caused the skeleton's arms to detach from the elbow onward, and they were still gripping the bow!}

(I'm going have to call it a night, I have a terrible migraine and was hoping eating would help but now I just feel like throwing up so I'm going to try and sleep it off, night guys)

The woman's well-placed foot crushed the air from Hawk's lungs, and the following blow nearly knocked him cold. The boy curled up and clutched his gut with one hand and his face with the other.

When Hunter recognized the bony hands that hadn't left, he screamed and dropped his bow. His next instinct was to snatch it back and, like his brother had done, he caused the bow to melt into the shape of a small sword. He staggered to his feet to prepare for the next attack.

(Oh no shadow! I hope you feel better! Rest well!)

( @Shadow Hope you feel better, and I hope it's nothing! D:)

{The woman kicked Hawk in the back of his head, for good measure, before taking his metal rod and throwing it out the nearest window. Then, seeing that her minion had been disarmed, literally, she picks up Hawk , produces a knife, and puts it to his throat.}"Hey! That's enough! Drop the sword!" {The skeleton stands up in an unsettling manner, and steps aggressively towards Hunter.}

Hawk managed a choked gasp when the woman grabbed him and held a knife to his throat. Instinctively, he froze.

Hunter raised his blade in a preparation to make another attack, but the woman's shout caused him to freeze. His face to stare at the unfortunate state. //Damn it... I could beat her to it... No, it's not worth the risk.// Stiff with anger, he tossed his sword aside and it clattered to the floor.

{The woman smiled, mentally noting just how young her assailants actually were.}"There's a good boy. Now get on the ground with your hands on your head. {The skeleton walked over to its arms and reattached them.}

Hunter clenched his fists. He was on verge of retaliating, but he couldn't bear to lose his brother's life in such a way. Slowly, he lowered himself to his stomach and put his hands on his head.

"Hunter," Hawk croaked with a cough. Guilty eyes trailed from his brother to the woman. //This is my fault... I should've stopped him.//

(Where'd everybody else go?)
{The woman tightened her grip on Hawk and closed her eyes briefly. Immediately after, three more skeletons appeared, one clawing its way out from under rubble, and the other two coming from the upper floors. She then orders the ragged one to search Hunter while he lies there.}"Move, and this one dies, hear me?"

(Blood was interacting with Shadow, butShadow left so she doesn't have much reason to stay. Spectral's been pretty busy, maybe too busy to get involved.)

(Ah, I see. )

Hunter glared daggers at her from where he lay. "I swear, I'll tear you apart. Don't think you've won," he snarled.
To his slight relief, there wasn't much for them to steal. His satchel had nothing but food, medical materials, and several formless hunks of metal. He just hoped they wouldn't take the watch pendant from around his neck.

The blows to his head had given Hawk a piercing headache. He squeezed his eyes shut, unwilling and unable to move. He eventually mumbled, "Please let us go. We'll do anything."

{One skeleton picked up the sword Hunter had dropped. Another came and began to search Hawk as Dianne held him. The woman eyed the boys with suspicion as her minion searched them, taking anything of value and tossing the rest out the window.}"One of you threatens me, and the other begs for your lives to be spared. Interesting. Adding on top of it all, you're both mere children. Why would you think attacking me would be a good idea at all? I'm surprised you two didn't try to run at the sight of a walking skeleton." {The ragged one finds the watch on hunter at this moment, and pulls it off of him. It takes a moment to inspect it before bagging it.}

Hunter gave the skeleton a murderous stare when it claimed the watch, but he couldn't fight back - not yet. "Have you not seen the condition of this city?" he hissed. "I'll do anything to keep him and me alive. Even attack strangers."

"We didn't plan to hurt you!" Hawk interjected. He cracked his eyes open. "I...had wanted to humbly ask to share these provisions, but...." He shut his eyes again. "I'm sorry we came as a threat. We meant you no harm... truly."

{The woman hisses back at the Hunter.}"Newsflash, kid, the whole //world// looks like this! You think I'm eating well enough to just let this slip through my fingers? I have mouths to feed too, you know. You might say that you're willing to do anything to keep you and your brother alive, but you clearly weren't willing to swallow your pride and arrogance for that cause." {Breathing in deeply to dissipate her anger, she then speaks to Hawk.}"Truth be told, if you two had gone with asking nicely, I might have given you some out of pity. But now, I'm taking it all." {After that, she yells out to the idle skeletons in an unknown language, and they begin to gather and bag the food.}

Hunter went silent as she spoke. He ground his teeth frustration: //She's beat us in strength AND in wit...//

Hawk gawked in horror. "Wait! You can't take possibly hoard all of it!" He turned to the woman. "Please, don't do this! We'll do anything for you!"

"Hawk, shut the crap up!" his brother snapped. "We aren't going to kiss her grimy feet over something this small. Let her do what she pleases."

Hawk stared in astonishment. //Whwre did this change in mind come from?//

{The woman looks between the two as they speak, gripping Hawk tighter as he moves.}"Again with the pleading. Don't you see? The time for bargaining and pleasantries ended when you attacked me." {From outside, the sound of hooves can be heard. After coming to a halt, the sound of footsteps are heard, and a blond haired man in a faded green trenchcoat comes in. (AAJeremiah)}"Dianne! Bufo said you needed the wagon for a massive score-oh." {He stops talking when he sees the boys.}"...Who are they?"

Knowing she was right, Hawk let his gaze drift to the ground. Hunter had stopped resisting as well, though his hazel eyes flicked calculatingly from one enemy to another.
When the newcomer arrived, both boys turned their attention to him. //Not another one,// Hawk moaned inwardly.

{Dianne responded with annoyance in her voice.}"Just some local delinquents. "
Jeremiah:"Awfully young, aren't they.
Dianne:"Don't let their pudgy little faces fool you. They tried to shoot me with a bow and a crossbow. They're dangerous. Also, they seem to have limited control over the matter around them. Don't let your guard down."
{Jerry shoots the boys a sympathetic look before nodding and helping the skeletons gather the food and load it onto a cart pulled by a dessicated deer draugr.}
Dianne:"Did anyone see you come here?"
Jerry:"No, not that i know of."

The twins stayed silent during the exchange. As the two adults began to converse, Hunter caught his brother's gaze with a serious look. Hawk returned it with one of dread and reluctance.

Hunter waited for until their captors seemed considerably distracted by each other, then he leaped into action. The teen pushed himself up to his knees and flung a small rock of iron toward the woman which, as it flew, warped into a sharp projectile. In the same moment, Hawk grasped her armed hand and yanked as hard as he could, both to get the knife further from himself and possibly to knock her off balance.

{Dianne's eyes widened as the projectile flew towards her. As the projectile hit her, she became a black smoke like mass, letting Hawk go. The smoke backed up a few feet before it rematerialized into a livid looking Dianne. The ragged skeleton rushed Hunter, trying to tackle him back to the ground.}

Hawk gawked as Dianne's form dematerialized and materialized again. Snapping out of his stupor, he raised his hands as though aiming a crossbow - and like water, metal rushed from his satchel and formed into a crossbow in his hands, loaded and ready. He immediately fired a bolt toward Dianne.

Hunter made it to his feet in time to meet the ragged skeleton's attack. He planted his feet to prevent himself from falling back, and he made his best effort to wrestle against it.

(I'm probably going to leave one more reply then get some sleep!)

{At this point, all the skeletons dropped what they were doing and rushed into the battle. As the bolt flew, a skeleton threw itself in front of the bolt and caught it with its sternum. Before anyone could do anything else, a shot rang out as a bullet ripped through Hunter's leg. Jerry had pulled out a small, rusty revolver and was now leveling it at Hawk's face.}"Drop it, or the next one's going between your eyes."

(At the same time, it just got better)

( @Fade That'll be ok. I need to sleep as well. I really want to continue this one though. Could we maybe continue this at a later time on a separate post?)

When the bullet tore through Hunter's leg, he screamed and fell to his knees.
Hawk hardly registered his failed attempt to shoot Dianne because his brother's cry claimed his attention. "Hunter!" he gasped, horrified. But with Jeremiah's threat, he had no choice but to slowly set his weapon on the ground. He stepped away and raised his hands into the air.
Hunter had collapsed on himself and was clutching his bloody calf.

(Or maybe when @Shadow feels better?)

(Yeah, I'd love to continue this! It's pretty epic! I could do it tomorrow, or any other time in the week.

Never would've guessed my boys would be turned into minced meat though, lol)

(I'm sure Shadow will be better by tomorrow, maybe)

(Ooh I just remembered, Shadow will be posting another random RP romorrow since SKeys will be canceled)

(If we do it tomorrow, it'll have to be around the same time it started today, Christmas eve and all. But, I'd be totally down for that. I'll do one more reply, then I've got to head out.)

(That'll do. :D)

(Great! x) )

{Dianne walked up to Hawk, grabbed him, and slugged him with everything she had. The ragged one was keeping a close eye on Hunter.}
Jerry:"Dianne, you'll kill him if you keep punching him. You're a dragon"
Dianne:"And why shouldn't I, Jerry? He tried to shoot me. Again."
Jerry:" They're just kids, Dianne. Kids born into this apocalypse. You saw what they could do. We could use that kind of talent back at camp."
Dianne:"What?! You want to trust these people? After all this sh!t?!" {Jerry's gaze and aim never leaves Hawk through all of this.}

(Ok, I'm out. See you tomorrow, hopefully. :) Bye!)

(Hopefully! Goodnight!)
