ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓Kira's expression fall back upon Lake, just as stony as before. A gentleman? Him? She couldn't imagine.
Still, she couldn't help flinching a little as he thumped himself, but that was his fault as well. How could he simply forget an injury like that? "Well you could've..." she began, but her eyes fell upon the claw marks upon his shoulders, and her head lowered, words trailing off. She didn't really feel like arguing.
Her hopes faded further when the wolf answered. She gave him a slightly disbelieving look, then glanced down at her pocket, where the chip bag remained. Rats had handled it? How disgusting... Then again, it wasn't open, and she was an animal herself, in some sense, so she really couldn't complain. Food was food here. She couldn't be picky.
"Y-yeah..." she stammered quietly, eyes upon the floor as she began trudging forward again, glancing absently for any doors that looked like they could have supplies behind them. Her hopes weren't very high at this point.
Becca, however, seemed somewhat thrilled. "Rats? You had rats get them? You can talk to them? And panthers? Can you talk to any animal?!" She clapped her hands together, beaming at him as she trotted to Agro's side, fully ignoring Lake at this point. "Magic rats! Can I meet one? Can I please? Just for a little while..." ♥ ☓  ♥

"Fear. Fear is my ally." As the two paused, the lightning seemed to zoom forward with each bolt, getting dangerously close to them... before stopping with one final blinding bolt and deafening crack. In front of them now stood a strangely-garbed being, his messy white bangs hiding his eyes from view, even as he tilted his head to the side, a look of curious amusement curling his lips somewhat. The white bangs seemed to crackle with minor static charges for a few moments.
"Hi there," the hellion said, his voice somewhat high, almost as if on purpose or overly-cheerful. He brought his head back to normal level, giving a genuine (if not creepy) smile. "What's a couple like you doing in the hallway? Ooooh, exhibitionists, eh? Well, hurry up and get it on already, you have your audience!""As you scream in terror...""I shall scream in p̡̼̩͔̘̟̱̝̮͒͑̆ͬ͟l̶̲̣̮̦̯̑̋e͚͈͍̤̟͓͛̓͌̍̈ͩͦ̚͜͞a̭̗͌͊̔̏͑s̫̯͇̞̞̣ͬ̇ͤ͂̈́̈ͮ͜͝ͅų̘̼̗͕̊͛͟r͙̹̙̣̤͖̗̐͂̃̉͋͑̃̈͜͞e͋̂͂ͯ̉͂̈́҉҉̡̛̩̬̟̻̞̞̞̹͎͙̘̪̠̤̩̦̳͉̙̲͍̰͐̍ͣ͋̔ͬ̑́ͧ̓ͥ͛̾̀̕͡."

.Lake. Lake shrank into the background again, sulking. They were all ignoring him now...except for Kira, but he didn't much like the look she was giving him, either.
...Dumb dog. He scowled, folding his arms and shuffling behind them. Why did dogs always wind up looking smarter than he was? It wasn't fair...
"Hey, pipe down," he mumbled finally in Becca's direction, still pouting. "What the hell have you been eating? Where's the sugar?!" So maybe he was taking his frustrations out on her a little. But, he was confused. And being ignored. And he wanted attention, regardless of what kind of attention it was. Was that so much to ask?

• Ɇver Ⱥfter βetter Get Ңere... ღxxxx Ⱥɴиɑ-Ӎɑɍɪεxxxxღ [ ooc: n/a] xxxxȺnna-Marie continued to look up at him with her normally calm expression. Oh yes, she had many...interesting things to say to the self-centered, dark clothed, punk boy in front of her, yet she refrained. It wouldn't be very polite or lady like to do such a thing. Nor was it insulting him repeatedly in her mind, but he didn't need to know that. So frustrated was she, that she didn't bother to notice the little light show that came around. Her sole focus was on Craig that everything else didn't really seem to exist. Thankfully good ol' boy-o was here to...er...alert her of her surroundings.
"...Right. Are you quite finished yet? You're no doubt causing a scene and all your shouting is going to bring this 'metal man' about," replied the woman dryly, her fingers coming up to air quote metal man. She still didn't exactly believe this kid that someone had this mystical ability and could bend metal to his will. That and the fact that a little girl was giving someone powers. Right. And he was yelling at her for being human and thinking about the lives of others? Some agenda this guy had. With her hand released, she crossed it over her chest, looking towards the commotion that seemed to be...right near them. What...in the hell was GOING ON?! "H-huh?!" Inching somewhat closer to Craig, the woman watched as whatever it was came towards them with wide eyes. This couldn't be good.
She sure as hell wasn't going to scream. That would just be stupid and cliched to the point of it being corny beyond belief. Psssh.
Flinching at the sound of the crack, she opened her eyes (which she didn't even realize were closed) and stared at the being with the...odd half naked wardrobe. Surely his mother didn't know he dressed like that. ...Hopefully his mother didn't dress him, period. Anna-Marie was stunned speechless by this...odd fellow. "Ah...Uh...h-hello...?" Anna-Marie wasn't sure if it was the lightning coming from the guy (got hit by a thunderstorm (literally)...hopefully?), or just his overall appearance, but she was highly unnerved by him.
"W-we're not a couple...and we're certainly not here of our own volition..." She watched the man oddly as he animatedly spoke about them performing for one reason or another. He certainly...didn't seem right at all. Glancing up at Craig, she waited for him to make the first move. She honestly didn't know what to do...and he was part crazy, right? He'd figure something out, surely.

" Any animal yeah, but these are regular rats. Dumb. I'm sure there's a vending machine or something. Maybe food storage or something." He scoped the doors they passed for something that looked different , like a faded sign or symbol for male or female. Anything really, he wanted to help Kira out, as he was starting to feel bad for the poor thing. In addition to that, he felt the call of the wild and could really use a bathroom. He was a wolf but he held himself to a standard that said "don't poop in the corner you savage". Which was a temptation he had resisted with pride.
" Anyone see anything? Maybe a water fountain in between two doors?" Another signature of public restrooms that dawned on him.

.Lake. "There's a water fountain by the bathroom," Lake piped up conveniently, clearly still trying to prove himself more useful than a wolf. "But the water that comes out of it looks like the same water you flush down the toilet. That's why I don't bother flushing." He puffed his chest out proudly at this revelation. "Sometimes when you press the button, no water comes out at all. That usually means there's a roach stuck in the water shooter!" He beamed eagerly at Kira for approval.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓"What? Sugar? I'd like to know that too," Becca piped up, smiling toward Lake and looking curious at the same time. She needed sugar to survive. It was like her fuel source, so if he had some she'd need a heaping share of it. "I've had chips," she added, head cocking curiously to the side. He'd given them over himself! Had he forgotten?
She glanced toward Agro. "Dumb rats? Well we should still thank them for helping. Or, I hope you did at least," she smiled pleasantly.
Kira walked slowly an in silence, anxiously aware of how easily something could slip into view. Her arms were locked and stiff, holding the material of her sweatshirt down, and she avoided making eye contact with anyone lest her blush grow even deeper. Lake wasn't helping in this task, as she realized soon after he'd spoken that he was staring at her.
Slowly, she glanced up, looking somewhat disgusted. "Wh-what?" He looked like a child awaiting praise for a job well done. All he'd said was that he didn't flush and then provided further reminder of the multitude of roaches about. In turn, this simply reminded Kira that she was barefoot.
"Don't just stand there," she grumbled irritably. "Point out where it is." She didn't know why the wolf wanted a water fountain... but she figured they didn't have any other useful goals in mind. Other than securing clothing, but no one seemed to eager to accomplish that.

.Lake. Well, it wasn't exactly the adoring praise the mutt had recieved, but he'd take it.
"Okay!" he agreed eagerly, ambling on ahead of the rest of the group. "I know how to get there! It's this way! Careful, or you'll get lost in the hallways."
He did slow his progress rather quickly, his lively steps dragging as he wheezed, holding his chest, but his enthusiasm was still present.
He'd show that wolf to be smarter than him...
"See? It's over here," he said finally, turning and walking backwards while pointing behind him, toward the bathrooms and water fountain at the end of the corridor. "I told you."

 Craig Ialden
The Shadow Man
"What if I were to...
...disappear...
...in front of your very eyes?"
It seems that yelling at the lightning didn't quite make it go away. Softly, he muttered a four letter word that was a more impolite term for the act of intercourse, while waiting for whatever was going to pop up. With his luck it'd probably be a demon or something. Instead he got a half-naked man who seemed to be wanting a show from them. Not that that was going to happen anytime soon. Glancing back at the woman in question, he noticed that she had moved slightly closer to him and was looking at him. "So, do you believe me now? This guy just appeared from lightning and thunder. Still going to deny that we're in a place where the normal rules don't apply?" He asked softly, voicing it so that only she could hear.
"Well, I hate to have to tell you this after you came all this way, but I'M not an exhibitionist and, just as the lady said, we aren't a couple. We're simply trying to get out of here. Sorry that you missed out." He said, adding on to Anna's previous statement.
I am the one who bends shadow to my will. I am the Shadow Man

"Fear. Fear is my ally." "What? No public ********? For shame," the white-haired hellion said, clearly disappointed. Static electricity seemed to increase, causing more jolts of electricity to go through his bangs, as well as for stray bolts to leap from his toes to the ground around them. "Well, you better do something. I'm bored and hungry, and you're fresh meat."
The electric surges stopped completely, his hair falling limply over his crimson eyes, blocking them from view. His frown was accented by the two fangs jutting over his bottom lip. His arms were crossed, and one of his fingers was tapping the arm on which it rested; it seemed strangely glossy, like a stone.
"Bored bored bored bored..." he muttered under his breath, regardless of their reactions."As you scream in terror...""I shall scream in p̡̼̩͔̘̟̱̝̮͒͑̆ͬ͟l̶̲̣̮̦̯̑̋e͚͈͍̤̟͓͛̓͌̍̈ͩͦ̚͜͞a̭̗͌͊̔̏͑s̫̯͇̞̞̣ͬ̇ͤ͂̈́̈ͮ͜͝ͅų̘̼̗͕̊͛͟r͙̹̙̣̤͖̗̐͂̃̉͋͑̃̈͜͞e͋̂͂ͯ̉͂̈́҉҉̡̛̩̬̟̻̞̞̞̹͎͙̘̪̠̤̩̦̳͉̙̲͍̰͐̍ͣ͋̔ͬ̑́ͧ̓ͥ͛̾̀̕͡."

• Ɇver Ⱥfter βetter Get Ңere...ღxxxx Ⱥɴиɑ-Ӎɑɍɪεxxxxღ [ ooc: n/a] xxxxWho was this guy, exactly?! Had she had a choice, Anna-Marie definitely would have avoided him at whatever costs. Sure, he had a nice physique and all...but just the overall way he presented himself. It all screamed odd. Hearing him, her eyes darted to the side to get a better view of him before looking back at the lightning boy. "There's gotta be some logical explanation for this. I refuse to give into insanity," she whispered fiercely back, being extremely quite for both of their sake. She couldn't believe people had super powers. That was...crazy. Sure, she was blond. That didn't mean she was stupid. Gods, no! As she stated earlier, there had to be a logical explanation for this. Maybe lightning was attracted to this guy. Maybe he got unluckily hit with it one too many times.
A slow tint of pink began to crawl up her face as the white haired boy talked. The pink soon turned to bright red at his first comment. Wh-what?! This guy wasn't normal. Not normal at all. He was some creepy, sick...degenerate of the world who...who...who needed help! Once again, she gazed at Craig uncertainly before looking back at Mr. crazy. Where was nurse Ratchet when you needed her? Reaching her hand to grab Craig's, she held onto it tightly, giving it a gentle squeeze. Her free hand fiddled with her shoes as she looked at the literally...shocking male.
"If you want us to do something...why don't we play hide and seek, hmm? I'm sure that'll be a game you would enjoy. Of course, tell me if I'm wrong and we'll move onto my next idea."
...
...
DEAR. GOD.
WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE DOING?! Not even Anna-Marie could figure out exactly what she was thinking. Her first idea was to throw her shoe at the animal and run, but...that might provoke it (for this silver haired weirdo wasn't human. Some viscous, ugly, horrid animal, rather).

" OH good, I hope the water isn't too horrible. I could use a drink." it would have been hoping too much if it was. Too expect this place to have perfect water was unreasonable, but he could stand a little bit on uncleanliness. He'd drank from streams a lot, probably just as bad sometimes. He trotted off into the mens bathroom, if he found a towell or something he'd grab it. Looked like there was a storage room near the bathrooms, which made sense design-wise. It felt safe to him, enough to go in alone for the moment. He got on his hind lets and held himself up on a sink. He turned the cold water. Then waited. Disappointed he was about to bat at the faucet but a shower of ants poured from the spout. An inky black torrent shooting off in every direction that made him hop down with a start.
" Blech."

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓Kira trailed behind Lake, still looking just as stiff and jumpy and red-faced as before. She seemed more hostile to make up for her state, not the slightest bit friendly as she moved rigidly along. She wanted clothes. She wanted shoes. She wanted her locket. And she really, really wanted out of here.
Also, she realized with a twinge of irritation that they were seeking the bathroom because the wolf wanted a drink. It had nothing to do with her, and her frustrations were at their peek. Still, she couldn't bring herself to part from them, the only safe group she'd found. Especially like this, in nothing but a sweatshirt, she felt more vulnerable than ever. Maybe she should've just stayed in the panther form... she hadn't been able to find her necklace either.
Huffing a sigh, she stood back as the wolf entered the bathroom. She had no intention of following, personally. Especially with bare feet. However, when she inhaled again, she froze, her eyes widening as she shuffled behind Lake and ducked her head. "...don't go inside," she said quietly, and then fell silent, offering no explanation.
Becca marched right in without delay, hot on the wolf's paws. She even leaned down to inspect the water, curious about what would come out. When it exploded with ants, she didn't even flinch. Her face split into a look of wonder and she pointed at it almost excitedly. "Hey, these aren't roaches! They're ants!" she announced, then called out to Lake and Kira. "There are ants blocking the sink!" ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake. "Hn." Lake arched an eyebrow, grunting at Kira's frantic whisper...he paused at the point of stepping into the bathroom, searching her face as though trying to find some kind of explanation. He peered in at Becca in annoyance.
"Of course those aren't roaches!" he grumbled, equally unphased by the arrival of the ants. He paused, then stamped his foot suddenly into the ground - there was a dull crunch beneath his boot. "That's a roach," he said, removing the shoe to point at the crushed insect underneath. "Hmm..." he peered down at it thoughtfully, then looked at Kira. "You probably shouldn't eat it," he told her, as though it wasn't obvious. "They're contaminated or dirty or something. I tried eating them a couple weeks ago. I got sick."

" Looks like there were cloth towels in here but they're...burned. That's weird. Check the girls washroom maybe." he called out to them. He hadn't forgotten! It was just... well, self preservation was a strong instinct, and he was very thirsty. He didn't want to resort to it, but he opened a stall on the en and slid the lid off the back of the toilet to see if there was any clan water left in the backs. this one was dry, He checked the next, which was demolished. With a sigh he gave one last effort. however.
What he found in the middle most stall made the gravity of the situation settle in on Agro's mind, for in that stall was a burned corpse. It's face was twisted in horror, blood spattered on the walls and it's legs were missing. How he missed the smell could have been attributed to the stench of the bathroom itself. How the blood on the floor was probably washed down the draining the center of the room by the water from the destroyed toilet which was probably plugged by bugs.
Agro slowly backed out of the stall.
" FFFFFFFFFFFF-"
