Kail ambled around the quiet ruins, his shoes leaving muddy footprints through the broken glass and dirt. The ground around him littered with small bones and bits of fur, ahhh his home.
Kail had been in this place for almost 3 weeks now and was starting to like it, the area had been cleared of any tricks or traps already, but the inner areas seemed to be completly locked down and was shut tight with almost no way in, so that screwed exploring further.
He had made a bit of a bed and bath near one of the old clinical areas that looked like it had been somewhat of a nursery or something, but no corpses or cribs, or beds, or for that matter Anything was left there.....
The whole place had looked like it was just an old building on the outside from a glance, but looking closer you could see areas that looked burned and broken, areas with bits of blood still flaking away in the natural air now. There had been a battle or a very bloody murder near the place.....but that didnt really draw away from the warm interior in a colder world.
That was why he had picked this place as well, WORKING CENTRAL HEATING!!! ohhh what a find that had been, he had been tired of the aching cold creeping through his skin and fur.
"wonder if theres anyone around here anymore?" he said outloud moving towards one of the large outside doors and the warm sunlight.

(Was this board for someone else? If so, tell me and I'll cut this post RIGHT out!) Verere woke up, the sun hot on her face. The human girl put a hand up to block the light. She was just outside the doors.
"What happened?" she asked the open air.
She had been at the huge party the night before. It had been about a mile from the old ruins, so how had she arrived here? She felt dizzy, as if someone had laced her coke with rum. Maybe they had?
She couldn't accept that possibility. She wasn't the type who would do anything of that sort. She hardly ever partied! The only reason she did last night was because Bryant had been there and had invited her. He was in her Social Studies class and was decently cute . . . But he wouldn't have done this either. She had probably just taken the coke and when she had it was laced with something. She would've had to walk a while to reach the old ruins, though.
She heard a voice.
"Hello?" she called, getting up.

(Nope it wasnt for anyone, it was for EVERYONE, why you thin i out WIDE OPEN on it XD)
Kail was leaning outside the doors now, his hat covering his ears while his tail stayed behind the door,"hey....what are you doing way out here?" he asked a bit curious, it was pretty unusual to see ANY one out this far even hybrid wise...but for a human...that was just plain wierd.
He backed up just a pinch to hide his tail more and motioned towards the open doors and into the now somewhat lit area, he didnt know if what he was doing was right, but hey shes only a girl'what can a girl do to me!?' he thought turning and disappearing into the shadows of the room for a moment out of sight to tuck in his tail.

(Well, I saw this one c-box post and thought you wanted a certain person here! I was sort-of worried)
"Whoa!"? she cried, turning around. Her eyes widened as she saw him. He looked her age, maybe younger.
"Hi, um, sorry, is this your place or something?" she asked, standing. She didn't follow the boy into the ruins, but stayed where she was.
She was now standing and her short dress and pants set were dirty from the dirt. She began to worry. What would her father think? Where was Josh? The youngster was only six, he could be anywhere!
She brought out her cell phone, an older model. She dialed home and talked to her family for a second before hanging up again.
"Dude?" she asked the darkness. "Are you okay? I mean, how did you get here?"

Kail was just about finish reaffixing his furry apendage when he heard the girl asking him questions, Now kail wasnt exactly the most trusting, or the smartest, or the quickest, or hell even the wittiest...but hell...he was bored to dirt today,'why not play along a little bit' he thought as he shrugged the query from his mind and walked back to the door.
Sticking his head out lightly he gave the girl a slight one over, mostly just sizing her up in a battle or as a shield...or even just an emergency decoy... but she probably wouldnt be very good as any of the three so he continued peeking from the side of the door, his wings now tucked tight against his back under the thin jacket,"No, not my place/....exactly.." he piped up lightly, giving the end a slight pause before ducking back in.
"What do you think, im fine, its you that anyone should be worried about..What are you doing out here anyway? Who are you?" he said grabbing up a small knife on a large table and stashing it down his right pant leg for safety sake as he called out to the girl.

She looked at his face, studying it and trying to put a name to it. She couldn't. He must've been at the party! She realized that with a tinge of embarrassment.
"You were at the party too, weren't you?" she asked, laughing softly. "I'm Verere, but you can call me Ver. Rhymes with Bear!" she laughed again, feeling giddy.
She stopped laughing as she caught a part of his sentence.
"Should I be out here?" she asked, fear growing in her eyes. She looked around for her purse just in case someone or something was about to grab her. She didn't even think that the boy in front of her could ever do anything heinous or wrong to her. "I mean, is there a wolf or something behind me? Please say because if there is, I would really like to know."

Kail shook his head lightly at the girl, she wasnt used to talking to regular humans and it just kinda screwed him up.
"no, no wolf, least not around here, they have kinda cleared out since i moved in, but sometimes ya hear thier howls at night, ya know just around really" he said slightly roaming off topic once again,but again coming around to ask"but really, who are you?...and why ARE you out here?" he said pulling the cap down just a little more.
He wasnt naturally suspicios but she was...different somehow, but not in a mutaty kind of way..jsut...a strange kind of way..ya know?
probably not

"Oh!" she sat up and looked at him curiously.
"I was at the party about a mile away." She shrugged. "I honestly have no idea how I got here, I feel a little woozy." She wobbled a bit as she tried to stand.
"Something must've been in that coke," she murmured as she finally stood up straight, light purse in hand. The purse matched her light shirt and it had little beads on it that shone in the sunlight.
"I already told you, I'm Verere Rose. I go to the local high school. Don't you go? I mean," she said with a slightly lisp, "You don't live here, do you?"

kial shook his head lightly, he didnt like telling lies if he could help it but..she was just another human why should he trust her or even get to know her?
He had made a bit of a scout of the local school..if anything just see if it was a real 'School' or one of the "Schools" that he had heard of, luckily it was just a regualar one and was clear.
"hmm, well any idea how you got all the way out here?, did you have a friend with you or maybe a boyfriend?" he asked shifting his cap again, his ears kept trying to swivel to different sounds around him as usual but everytime they did his cap would try to come off as well.

She shook her head.
"No, no one I really knew well. I'll call my brother." She dug into her purse, finding nothing.
"I just talked to him about five seconds ago," she murmured. She dropped to the ground, looking for the phone. She found it and held it up to the sun. It glistened like a blade in the light. She flipped it out and dialed a number.
"No signal now," she said. "But hey, you didn't answer me question . . . You don't live here, right? I mean, you go to the high school down the road."

'dang...shes an insistant one..hmmm' his mind churned for a few seconds trying to come up with a viable answer that DIDNT make him look like just another stray or..what ever they call people with no real life path.
"yeah, I just got into town really and im still filling out the forms ya know...sign this..write this..do this..go here" he said with a casual smile now,'heh that was a good one....even for me' he thought, unconsciously grinning slightly.

"Ah," she whispered. In her drowzy state, she believed him. Not only that, but she strusted him too.
"You'll like Hampton High," she said as she tried her number again. Nothing. "It's big for a school in this hobunk town. It's nice, well. . . Most of the people are. We have tons of parties." She dialed again and got nothing.
"Darn it, Josh has guitar in an hour and I won't be able to drop him off," she said with a groan. Her responsiblity, her life, was her brother. He was like her little boy and she was like his mother.
"Do you have a ride?" she asked him.

Kial looked around the area for a few seconds after that last question...him a mutant hybrid with a freaking tail, wings, and doggie ears....have a RIDE?
"i..dont think i have a ride, least not a usable one,uhh...i could probably walk you back if ya want though" he said motioning towards what looked like a larger clearing away from the ruins of the large building.
"youll probably get a better signal out there too, its a little more open" he said staring at the little phone in the verere's hand now with a glint of wonder.

She shook her head.
"My dad's at work anyways, he wouldn't be able to pick me up. I just wanted to let Josh know he'll have to walk to his lesson." She walked out more and, sure enough, there it was. A little bar.
"Hey, Joshie, sister won't be home in time. She's gonna walk home with a buddy, okay? Walk to guitar with Emil. Okay honey, buh-bye," she said, hanging up.
"I'll take you up on that offer," she said. "I don't think I could get home otherwise." Something felt off about this guy, something different. But she was too sleepy to notice. She walked, nearly tripping on a branch.
"Whoa, I'm graceful," she said with a tinge of sarcasm.
"I never asked you your name. I mean, if we are going to be walking for the next. . . " she counted. "Three miles together, we better know each other's names."

'damn,...couldnt get off on that one, uhhh'"its kail" he said without even really thinking.
Jeez kail why dont you just go ahead and tell her you have wings and a tail IDIOT' he said mentaly slamming his hand flat into his face.
Moving forward he started away from the ruins now...giving a fleeting glance back at the worn out place he now called home,'hey its better than a cage or a cramped cell' he thought again, he had been thinking to himself alot lately....more and more about what to do now that he was in a new town with what seemed to be No ITEX hold at all.
"Where do you live anyway?" he asked looking up at the girl now, his mind once again drifting on the mental currents.
