Nim
Nim pressed herself tightly against the wolf's back as they neared a group of Vipers. She went quiet as she waited for the perfect timing. Once Neffy impacted with them, Nim stood up on her back and jumped into the air. The small fox had strong feet and could jump as high as a normal fox.
As her cloak of invisibility left Neffy's body, Nim flew towards a Viper's head. Landing gracefully and with good balance she used his head as a stepping stone to jump forward. She played hopscotch on several gang members heads, causing more confusion before stopping on a certain members shoulders. She crawled down his side and reached into his jacket, pulling out smoke bombs and snatching another bomb from his hand before trotting off.
Nim pressed a free hand to her headset. Her voice was muffled from the gas mask but she spoke clearly to be heard. "Nim found smoke bombs in their jackets! Nim will go find the vipers with the bad gas!" she declared as she stuffed the smoke bombs she had in her pockets and trotted off to check out the stores. With Neffy causing a distraction, the invisible fox could freely roam around with little danger.
Ducking into one of the shops that sold Chinese plates and other glass ware, Nim explored the area. She wanted to find the source of the smoke that came spewing from several of the stores. The one she was in had so much green smoke she had trouble seeing more then a couple feet in front of her. But soon enough, she located a strange block boxes that had been set down behind the cash register, which was emptied of all it's cash. She picked the smoke maker up and shook it a bit.
"Black boxes! Nim found a black box in a store! It's making the bad smoke!" she said before pressing a red button on the box. The smoke stopped spewing. Her ears then perked as she heard a groaning sound. She turned her head and trotted after the sound.
"Hnn?" she crouched down under one of the tables and pulled up the sheet to see a small girl curled up under the table. She had her mouth covered with her shirt and was gasping. The gas was not deadly, but very painful and probably harmful in large doses. The cloak around Nim disappeared instantly as she reached out and scooped the little girl up. She jumped in shock and struggled at first. Nim frowned. She was so weak. The smoke was affecting her badly. She pulled off her gas mask and gave a gentle smile.
"Nim is good! She's going to protect you now" she said as she fitted her gas mask over the girls face. It was a good thing Nim was small. Her gas mask was just barely able to adjust to fit the girls face. She then pulled her shirt up to try and cover her mouth. Already, her throat was burning and she couldn't help but cough as she stood up with the girl carefully in her arms. The invisible cloak surrounded her again as she trotted up the stairs to look for more people.
"Zephar! Nim needs Zephar's help! People are hiding in the shops. Nim found a small girl! Nim thinks we should collect the bad Vipers masks and give them to the people we find." Nim paused to cough. Talking made her have to breath more. It hurt badly. Her throat was burning so much. How could these people do something to cause such pain to others? Nim could already feel herself loosing her voice, but that girl had been suffering the smoke longer then Nim. With the streets so dangerous right now, many of the people in China town could not safely evacuate. They were cornered like mice. The vipers were ruthless.
As Nim reached the top stairs, she was met with a horrifying sight. She covered the girls eyes quickly and held back a surprised yelp as she saw two people laying on the ground dead. They each had two stab wounds next to each other below either the front or back of their necks. Like a snake bite. Nim hopped over them to explore the rest of the place. Those people must have lived in the upstairs area. They looked a lot like the girl she was holding. She then turned once she was done exploring and went back down the stairs, coughing more. Her shirt wasn't really protecting her much.
"Nim...cough...Nim's going to find more people..If Joey says okay" she said with a cracking voice. But first she wanted to hand off the girl to Zephar. She knew Zephar could fly that girl out of the smoke quick enough. So Nim turned her head to look at the small girl.
"Nim's friend is going to come rescue you. When he does, Nim is going to take the gas mask back. So when Nim takes the gas mask back, you hold your breath until the smoke is gone. You wont have to hold it long. Okay?" she asked, smiling behind her shirt as the girl nodded in understanding.
