[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

Pyro rounded a corner. The clinic was about one hundred feet away.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

"Oh, thank God," Savita grumbled, Jacob's thoughts reflecting her words.

[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

Pyro skipped the rest of the way there, and walked through the doors and to the line, which was short.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

Jacob helped Savita inside, but let go of her once they crossed the threshold. "All yours, Pyro."

[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

Pyronodded and reached the front of the line. "Hi, my older sister and I were skateboarding, and she fell. Really badly. Her shoulder- oh god, it's...." Her voice sounded panic-y, assuming the immediate roll she made on the spot. She hurt her anklle too, and we were nearby." She trailed off. The lady looked at Savita. "She's dizzy, and not really focused." Pyro added. The lady nodded. "Right this way." She started down the office hallway. Pyro followed.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((Ugh, g2g wash dishes. Will be back, I promise.))

Savita followed shakily, wincing every time she put weight on her ankle. "You lie too well," she whispered in Pyro's ear.

[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

((kay. I only have thirty minutes until I'm gone for a week:) ))

Pyro shrugged. "That makes two of us." She replied.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((A WEEK?!))
((Sorry, couldn't resist anohter post.))
((Where ya going?))

Savita managed a faint smile. "What's that supposed to mean?"

[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

((San Francisco for marine biology))

"Remember this morning?" Pyro muttered, her tone a smidge bitter.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((Niiiiiice!!!!!!!))

"No..."

[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

((yeps. Five minutes or so.))

"You almost got me captured?"

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((D: Have fun!!))

"Oh." She said quietly, looking rather uncomfortable.

[Vanillaice *there aren't any good new songs, so...]

((Bai!))

Pyro said nothing more.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((See ya!!!!!!))

Savita focused on the feet of the woman in front of them.

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((What's funny is that the art camp I was workking at today was performing the Lion King XD))

Scarlett wished she had a gun, but settled on fighting hand-to-hand. As the Erasers neared, she cracked her knuckles and prepared herself. "I thought there'd be more."

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((That's awesome. :D))

Stella shot a warning glance at Scarlett. "Be careful, they have guns," she muttered. She was clutching her own weapon tightly, as though afraid she was about to drop it. "Probably wouldn't want to kill us if they don't have to, though."

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((IKR?

Just got a Justin Bieber Birthday invitation from my cousin o.e))

"I'm not surprised," she sighed. That basically tripled their numbers. "Maybe, maybe not. I can never tell." Don't want to give them the chance.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((ICKY.
Your cousin has no taste.))

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((Oh jeez. Are you going?

And sorry for my random disappearance. My friend called and we started talking about The Hunger Games and... well, you know how long that can last.))

They will if they need to, Stella thought grimly, but stayed silent. Her first instinct told her to run for it, but the logical and rational part of her brain told her she wouldn't have a chance if she did. So she gritted her teeth and stared back at the Erasers, who were slowly circling around them.

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((Well, she's only, like, seven...and I don't really have a choice >.<

That's fine. I was at Sonic, so it's all good.))

In Scarlett's point of view, each Eraser looked almost exactly the same. Only slight variations in their facial features kept them from looking like clones. But they all had the same, savage, blood-thirsty smile. Scarlett faced the in opposite direction of Stella so that they couldn't get her in the back.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((Aww, I love seven-year-olds! So adorabubble.

This is totally random, but I just realized that I always think of Harry Potter (or Bugs Bunny, depending on the color) when I see the Warner Brothers logo, and I always think of Shrek when I see the DreamWorks logo. .-.

Also, are you making me control the Erasers now? Meanie. Since it was your fallback plan, you should have to roleplay them. HA. See how these things come back to haunt you? You shouldn't have come back, Simba.))

Stella took a quiet breath, trying to get her pounding heart to shut up. Her eyes scanned the circle, looking for a way out, glaring at the ugly faces of the Erasers. She had been in tougher situations than this before and had managed to get out, right?

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((I DO THE SAME THING!))

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((Wait, she's nine :]

DUUUUUDE, no way. Now that you mention it, I see what you mean...

URGH, fine. Stupid ghosts. Hakuna Matata.))

After a moment of pure stillness, the Erasers attacked. They pulled out their guns and shot. Grabbing Stella's arm, Scarlett let herself drop a couple feet. The bullets hit the Erasers who were across from the shooters. They took down at least four.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((Fail.))

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((On a similar note, I just watched the first Harry Potter movie again... and "aww"ed about a million times. And whenever they screamed I had to laugh. It was so funny. And almost all the actors were terrible back then except Emma Watson, who was amazing and insanely cute.

*hums song*))

Stella watched as a few Erasers fell to the ground far below after being shot by their accomplices, trying not to think about what any onlookers were experiencing. "Good thinking," she started to tell Scarlett while shooting at one of the remaining Erasers, but the first word had not left her mouth before she was grabbed roughly by her shoulder. She swore as a gun was pressed to the side of her head, struggling to stay in the air, as her wings were being partially crammed against her attacker behind her.

"I didn't think you would be so surprised to see us... Stella," the Eraser managed to say before his gun was unexplainably wrenched out of his hand and hit him hard on the head instead. Stella tried to steady herself in the air as she was released, the Eraser falling unconscious to the ground. His gun, with the further help of Stella's powers, zoomed into Scarlett's hands.

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

Scarlett caught the gun with fumbling hands. She was about to thank her and ask if she was okay, but was interrupted by a pair of hands grabbing onto her wings. She grunted in pain before putting her feet on his abdomen and kicking off. The Eraser released her wings and doubled over. She delivered a blow to his head and then turned to the next one, just catching her breath.

One exceptionally large Eraser grabbed Stella by her wings in a similar fashion, a stupid grin in his face.

[Catie]

((I'M HOPPING IN NOW!!!)))

Chyna had been watching the fight. She wasn't the best fighter. Andcthe girls were handling it well. But she knew these kids were like her. She couldn't let them get hurt. So when one of the girls was grabbed by the wings, twice, she made a snap decision.

Chyna took some kind of block and smashed it over the eraser's head.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((Some kind of block...? Nice.))

Stella felt her wings being wrenched back and couldn't keep back a yell of pain. She was about to turn around and punch the Eraser when his strong grip on her wings was suddenly released. Stella dropped down a little in the air to regain her balance, glad Scarlett had helped her out. But looking up, she saw that her friend was further away, fighting another Eraser.

"What..." Stella turned around and saw a girl, hovering in the air with dark brown curls blown back in the wind. She looked much younger than Stella, and definitely had wings like herself.

Stella wasn't going to focus on introductions at the moment. There was a fight to finish, and a new person to keep out of danger. "Thanks," she said simply, but genuinely. "Keep out of the way now, okay?"

With that, she turned back around and towards one of the two remaining Erasers.

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((Those are the best kinds))

Scarlett took another one down and felt somewhat relieved that there were only about three left. but when she saw Chyna, she paused momentarily, wondering where the hell she came from. In that moment, one of the remaining the Erasers tackled her and she went back into her brawling state of mind.

[Catie]

((Well I wasn't sure what materials were around))

Chyna was happy to scoot out of the way. Chyna nodded to the girl and dropped down a few feet and over a bit to get out of the major fighting zone. She was still ready to help and watched carefully.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((True, there's not much to work with in the air.))

Why the hell aren't they using their guns?! Stella thought wildly. In the next second, the Eraser she had been heading towards shot at her, and she had to turn sharply to the right to barely dodge it. On second thought... I wasn't complaining. "Now, now," she said out loud, getting close enough to punch the Eraser in the face; he fell down a few feet, and she followed, "if the boss wants us alive, you shouldn't use the guns, huh? I thought even you would have common sense."

The Eraser took no time to grab her by the neck. Stella winced as his sharp claw-like nails dug into her skin, and gasped for a breath. "You're wrong," he snarled into her ear. "We're only to get one of you. With the other, we can do... whatever we like." His lips curled into a wolf-like grin, baring his sharp teeth.

Stella could feel herself drifting out of consciousness, and could only focus on keeping herself hovering in the air. With her free hand, she grabbed her gun and jammed it into the Eraser's chest. The grisly smile faded in a moment as understanding dawned on him before Stella pulled the trigger, letting out a loud bang.

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((A CINDERBLOCK.
Anyone know that joke?))

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((I think so. :P))

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((With Rose and Lily?))

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

((Yep, I know the one. Funny stuff.))

[Catie]

((I KNOW THAT ONE TOO!!!!!!!!))

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

((I LOVE THAT JOKE!))

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((I...don't...know it.))

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

Scarlett heard the shot go off and turned her head in time to see the Eraser fall away from Stella. "Are you okay?" Scarlett called, ducking as an Eraser lunged for her. The last one. Scarlett wasn't fond of guns, but this one time, she used it. He fell. Hard.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

"Fine," Stella said breathlessly, pushing a strand of wavy hair behind her ear. She had a bit of blood on her neck from the Eraser's claws, and more red splattered on her shirt, but she was relatively fine. "You?" Before she could answer, Stella looked back for the girl and quickly spotted her below them. She was somewhat surprised the girl hadn't flown off yet. She knew that was what she would have done.

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

Scarlett looked where Stella was looking. She tensed, moving some hair from her face. Ignoring her question, she asked, "Who is that? I saw her fighting earlier." The girl couldn't have been more than twelve years old, but she had that birdkid look to her. Aged, hardened, and mistrustful.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

"No idea," Stella muttered back. "She saved my ass a few minutes ago, so I'd say we can trust her." With that she dropped several feet down to where the girl was waiting.

[Catie]

"You guys okay?" Chyna asked as Stella came down to her.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

"We'll live," Stella said simply, watching her. "And who are you?"

[Catie]

"Chyna." Chyna said simply. "You?"

[Savita, is Pumbaa <3 (I...don't remember who Pumba is....)]

RedPath wrote: "((I...don't...know it.))"

((*GASPETH*))

[RedPath, ^ is Simba]

((D:))

Scarlett gave a kind, yet detached smile. "I'm Scarlett." Did she trust her? Hell no. But she saved Stella's life, so she probably wasn't out to kill them.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

Stella's pale blue eyes flickered over to Scarlett for a second. "Tell me how you found us first. Just happened to be flying over the city? Anything in that backpack?" she asked quickly. The girl had helped her out, but Stella wasn't going to let her off the hook because of that.

((Didn't know if she was wearing a pack or not, so I can change that.))

[Catie]

((She can have a pack.))
"Best way to avoid Erasers is to stop where they already stopped. They never stay in the same place more than once. You follow one team and find hiding spots, food sources, and first aid." Chyna opened her pack "$250, three packs of protien bars, Two notebooks one filled, 7 pencils and a pencil sharpener. 2 bottles of water. A flashlight. A lighter. Finally some pain killers, bandages, and disinfectant." Chyna looked at the girl trying to figure out if she approved or not.

[Swiftfire, is Timon]

Stella glanced down in the bag for a moment, then looked back up at Chyna and nodded. "I believe you," she said with a smile, then held out her hand fo the girl to shake. "Stella."
