[IC] The Room

[Overlord Thraka]

*Iris looks taken aback and slightly hurt*
Iris: I... I... This... isn't how I used to look...
*She looks down at herself only to see Hanna, which brings a small smile to her face as she hugs back*
Iris: I used to be beautiful... now I'm a fu-
*She catches herself, not wanting to swear in front of Hanna*
Iris: Er... a lizard...

[LemonZest1337]

*Hanna hugs Iris and goes to say something but is cut off by Walter*

----

Walter: Who is to say you are not beautiful now? The humans? You shouldn't put yourself down, worrying about what others think. Before I continue. you said you used to be beautiful, could you please elaborate?

*Walter puts his four hands into his lap, clearly interested in the matter*

[PrinceAlexus]

*Nonac sighs and stems Xans wound vest he can but will require a full doctor, and just stop her bleeding to death*

Still need to get healer... Live until then. Wound too serious to heal by my skills fully.

Take easy.

*Furia looks over and frowns at Walters human comments*
If not like humans stick to homeland. This a human land.

*shrugs and helps Xan somewhere comfortable *

*Sgt heads out and endevers to check on his men's small encampment under a porch with horses tied to nearby trees*
*seem to suspect something is going on here *

[LemonZest1337]

*Walter looks over at Furia*

Walter: I already stated why I left my home. But the words I used might have been a little to advanced for you. I apologise.

*He then gets up and walks towards the kitchen*

----

*Hanna scowls at Walter as he walks off*

*She then looks hugs Iris*

*She can't help but notice Iris tail then gets a sudden urge to touch it, but doesn't*

[PrinceAlexus]

*Furia gives him a harsh look*
Less advanced. We no fools. You insult us in sly way.

Not ... Book taught but skilled hunters, in harsh environments and able to live in lands others cannot.

Not every culture has room for soft scholars who live in soft lands.
*turns and talks with Nonac*

[LemonZest1337]

*Walter sighs*

Walter: Creatures of my intellect design tools so that everyone can survive the harsh environments. And calling my homelands soft is so inaccurate it's comical. Farewell.

*Walter then walks into the kitchen and starts making himself a salad*

[Overlord Thraka]

*Iris looks upset at Walter, more hurt and depressed than angry though*
Iris: You wouldn't understand...
*She happily accepts the hug from Hanna and sighs*
Iris: What does he know huh? Big bug...
*She sighs and curls up rather sadly, her tail curling around herself and Hanna unconsciously while her wings form a bit of a tent around them*

_____________

*Horus is still heading towards the storm*

______________

*Mergoux is still unconscious*

*Halia is still petrified in terror*

___________

*Xan staggers after Nonac, panting heavily as blood dribbled from between her jaws and from the dagger impaled in her chest*
Xan: Strangers... here for you...

[PrinceAlexus]

*Nonac does his best on the wound but she needs a full medic and prevents dieing as best she can*

You need healer.
Wound too severe.

*Furia nods*
Thankyou.
They same group. They not know what happen yet. They must be after the captain!
Longer not know. More time to prepare

*Nonac nods and helps Xan as needed*
Thankyou, but they will find us in time. There clan... They will work hard to find captain.

[Vulkan 707]

*The giggling creature howls in pain at having his leg smashed, and slams his fists down onto Lecter.*
*The floating creature just watches silently.*

---
*Other floating creatures appear in lightning bolts, and watch Horus from some the trees.*

[2BlackJack1]

*Lecter raises his blade to block the smash and growls as his legs buckle beneath him*
Lecter: Dak'ava? Or something else?

*Karma hisses from where she stands*
Just kill it, Lecter.
*She turns to look at the silent figure and tilts her head*

[LemonZest1337]

*Hanna squeaks as the tail coils around her*

*She looks up at Iris then pokes the tail*

Hanna: U-umm, Iris?

----

*Walter eats his salad and sits in the kitchen*

[Overlord Thraka]

*Iris starts slightly*
Iris: O-oh! I'm sorry Hanna... I didn't mean- Here, I'll just let you down...
*She still looks upset over talking with Walter*

*Horus is watching all around him, carefully. He stops infront of a small tree after a little bit and considers it. After spending a minute or so looking it over he pulls it from the ground and hefts it*
Horus: This will have to do.
*He breaks off most of the branches and hefts his new club over his shoulder before continuing on*

*Xan pants weakly*
Xan: Help... nix jak... nix jak... (Not die)

[LemonZest1337]

Hanna: N-no don't worry!

*She hugs Iris*

Hanna: W-what's wrong? Y-you look upset...

[Overlord Thraka]

*Iris sighs and smiles weakly*
Iris: No... I'm okay. Just trying to get used to a few things is all...
*She looks down at Hanna, her lips parting and revealing razor sharp needle-like teeth as she smiles*

[LemonZest1337]

*Hanna smiles back at Iris*

Hanna: Y-you'll be fine! I'll make sure of it!

*She squeezes Iris real tight*

[Overlord Thraka]

*Iris smiles slightly and hugs back*
Iris: I hope so dear... I hope so... I'm not sure what you could do though!
*She sighs sadly but ruffles Hanna's hair then gasps as she's hugged really tight*
Iris: Hanna... ribs...
*She wheezes slightly*

[LemonZest1337]

*Hanna releases Iris the second she hears the wheeze*

Hanna: Sorry!

*Hanna scoots of Iris's lap*

*She looks at the floor*

[Overlord Thraka]

*Iris smiles weakly*
Iris: Oh don't worry! I'm okay!
*She hugs Hanna gently as there's a soft knock on the door*
Iris: Now I wonder who that could be... Hanna would you answer it please?

*On the other side of the door are 3 men and a woman.*
*One man is graying, with a stubbly beard and dressed in a brown suit*
*The second man looks identical to Ron Pearlman, dressed in jeans and a biker jacket*
*The third man has wild brown hair, stubble and a trace of white powder under his nose, along with a spot of blood on his tie.*
*The Woman has wild blue hair, shaved on either side of her head, with a wild mohawk and two thin strands on either side of her face reaching down to her chin. She's got the sleeves of her suit rolled up to reveal dual sleeves of tattoos*
*The sort of loiter around, waiting for the door to be opened*

[LemonZest1337]

*Hanna walks nods to Iris and goes to the door*

*She opens it and looks at the 4 people*

Hanna: H-hello.

----

*Walter walks out of the kitchen and heads back to his room*

[Overlord Thraka]

*The man in the brown suit (Dallas) glances down at Hanna casually*
Dalla: Hello. Can you tell me what this place is?

*The wild-haired man (Jimmy) snorts and speaks in a heavy cockney accent*
Jimmy: It'sa big ol' place innit? F#&@in' 'uge!

*The Biker (Rust) peers over everyone's head and into the building, then makes a face as he sees Iris*
Rust: Awww what th' hell did we get ourselves into?

*The Woman (Sydney) winks at Hanna and speaks in a strong Australian accent*
Sydney: How's it goin'?

*Iris gets up and cautiously walks towards the door*
