The last thing Awen remembered was passing out beside Lauren and her hollow tree shelter. She had been muling over relationships she knew on the island while being cold and pelted with little bits of rain. She was away from the warmth that a companion would have had, even if it was just to share body heat and be away fro mthe rain for awhile.

When she awoke however Awen was completely submerged in hte middle of the lake. She jerked awake, her eyes wide her heart pounding. She was underwate, she couldn't breath. She tensed and trashed in a weak attempt to swim to the surface. She would die if she stayed down there, flashes of her dreams the faces of her dead parent rotting and decomposing in the water ran through her mind.

She felt faint. She started to feel dizzy, as though she would pass out. Then all of a sudden she took in a deep breath, but not through her eyes or mouth. It was her gills. For a moment she was confused.... and then she remembered she could breathe.

She wondered how she got to the lake anyway... She slowly swam towards the shore.

Avery slowly woke up as the rain began to stop; he had been asleep in the lean-to with Colche for a while, and he was starting to feel very cramped... and very hungry. When did he last eat something? All I've eaten was that bit of jerky Timothy gave me in the burrow... I wonder where he is? He hasn't shown up at the camp yet, Avery wondered, feeling worried for his safety. He hoped Timothy was alright.

Avery crawled out of the lean-to and stretched, before glancing around the camp. Maybe I should try and find him. Not sure which direction he should go, Avery picked a random place to start and just began walking. There seemed to always be someone that he would run into on this island, so he wasn't too worried about getting lost... again. He made his way through the forest slowly, until he stumbled out of some bushes to find... a lake? Well, that was the last thing he needed - more water. Avery was already still soaked from the rain. But maybe he could try to catch a fish. He did see movement in the water, after all... and he approached the lake, only to find what was swimming in there wasn't quite a fish at all.

It was something about her luck but Awen always seemed to surface at inopportune moments around islanders. Of course, in most cases this means she surfaces when they're taking a bath, but being around Aery in general at the moment probably wasn't the best of luck for either of them. She caught a sliver of light coloured hair from under the surface, but from under the water and because of the darkness she couldn't be sure who it was exactly. The colour and form distorted Awen smiled, it had to be Chubbs! She hadn't seen the poor boy in forever.

She surfaced with a big smile, but even with her vision temporarily blurred she could tell, this thin form wasn't her dear friend Chubbs. "Er....hey there!"

Avery jumped and nearly fell over as he stepped back when the girl in the lake surfaced. He couldn't help but stare at here, even if it was rude of him. "Uh... h-hi," Avery stuttered. Really, why am I even shocked anymore, after seeing everything I have..? He shook his head a bit, trying to clear his thoughts, and he looked at the girl again. "Hello," he said, properly introducing himself this time. "I'm Avery... what's your name?"

Awen noted the stares he was giving her. She saw the surprise and even the hint of fear in his eyes, thoguh it was hard to see much she could see much more white around the iris than she would normally, so she figured. She tried to think if anyone had ever mentioned an Avery. Of course not, the way he was stumbling over his words.... It was obvious.

She laughed a little bit. "I'm Awen, sorry to scare you... You're with Rex right?"
PostPosted: Sat Mar 04, 2006 12:06 am


Rex... this must be the lady in the lake he had told me about, Avery thought. He relaxed a little, and smiled at her. "Nah, it's okay... I was just a little startled," he said. "And yeah, Rex and I both washed up on this island together... he told me that he ran into you, I think. He said he saw--" Avery trailed off when he noticed the town lights not far on the opposite side of the lake flicker a few times as the power was restored, and then stayed on, shining brightly. Didn't someone say there was no electricity..? "Hey... those light just came on, over in those buildings... I thought there was no power here..?"

"Oh my god!" Awen turn in the water and saw the light's final flicker and then stay on. They're back. Someone was in the village! Moreau? Or had an islander found a way to get inside the main building. She practically leapt from the water....which meant of course her flipper stubed on the shallow shore and she fell to the ground. "There isn't supposed to be." Her eyes were bright and shining.

Grabbing Avery's wrist she hauled him towards the building. "C'mon we gotta see what's happening here. I can grab chocolate bars and Skittles in my room too!" She added as more incentive, incase the guy was hungry. She almost drooled at the thought of skittles after so long. And Soul Calibur 3! She hadn't barely even started the file before all this crap happened!

She raced as quickly as she could with flippers, and dragging of Avery. The comm system. She could page the main building! Yes! First stop, Awen's room.

He was surprised when Awen leaped out of the water and grabbed his wrist. What choice did he have but to follow her? Especially when she mentioned they would be getting food - well, it was candy, but that was definitely good enough for Avery.

"Well, food sounds good to me!" He hurried as fast as he could to keep up with her as they ran to the buildings. Avery had no idea where exactly she was leading him, but if there was food to be found, he was not about to argue.

When they got to her duplex Awen skidded to a halt. "Number Twenty One, please don't be locked. C'mon, c'mon, c'mon..." She let go of the cross dresser's wrist and grabbed the door handle. A second's hesitation, a moment of silent prayer and.... The knob turned and she pushed her door open.

Awen stood in shock as the village light flooded into her dark room. It had been....months... She had half expected it to have been stuck shut still. But it had opened. Thank god it had opened!

She stepped forward slowly and clicked on the light. She blinked away the brightness and stared around her room. It smelt a little musty but it was home. That was her scrap book on the desk, her PS2 and TV, her parent's picture on the nightstand.

Awen couldn't help it. She was so overwhelmed tears started to roll down her cheeks. She turned around to Avery and smiled, though she was still crying. "Welcome to the Island man.... how the island is supposed to be."

She moved to one of her dressers and grabbed the stash of candy she kept in case of emergency midnight snack craving. She tossed a bag and skittles to the blond and grabbed a coffee crisp for herself. Tearing off the wrapper she took a large chomp.

Joliette trudges slowly into the village, light had just illuminated the night and that alone caused her to blink, she had gotten used to no artificial lights... Her yellow tongue flickers and she moved through the village , and then she notices it... an open door... Trudging towards 21 she quietly calls out "Hello?"

Avery hadn't been stuck out in the wilderness as long as Awen had been, but he was still just as relieved to see the door open. Ever since he arrived, he has seen nothing but strange things, being forced to live out in the forest; no beds or anything... and it was truely a relief for him to see regular household items and electricity. Avery didn't even pause to think about what it might mean, that the doctors might be back and now was the time for him to try and escape.

He caught the bag of skittles Awen tossed to him. "Thanks," he said, smiling at her and ripping open the package, quickly shaking some of the candy out into his hand to eat. He was starving.

He paused when he heard someone call out behind him, and he turned around to peer outside, seeing a woman who looked... mostly human, with brown hair. Avery stepped outside of the duplex and smiled at the other girl. "Hey there!"

Awen grinned when she heard the voice but was already making her way to the intercom. "Hey Joli come on in! We've got candy!" She laughed and just was so happy to be back. Finally people could return to normal and put all of this survivor stuff left behind them. She still wondered though what made the electricity turn back on. Had someone gotten into the main compound? Were the doctors back?

She glanced a nervous eye at Avery. If the doctors were back that means him and Rex... But she sighed. Back to life as normal on the island. She couldn't let that dampen her spirits. She had chocolate!

"And hey a shower and PS2 and look heaters! God this is so....god!" She chuckled and pushed the intercom button. "Hello! Anyone in there?" She was just bursting with possitive energy now. "The power is back, like you don't already know! Whose in there then? Moreau? Chubbs hun did you break in?"

Joliette peers through the illumination at the male, her long yellow tongue flicked the air as she brought his scent to her "I've not met you... " she muses quietly and moves closer looking up at him, he stood a good foot taller then her, but that was nothing new, she was certain she was the shortest person on the isle. She peers around him looking at Awen "Your door was the only one I saw open... but I've picked up the scents of hte cafeteria" she says

Colche broke through the door of the canteen as soon as she reached it. Her tail twitching, though the twitch was a little painful. She walked to the food counter almost in a daze filling up a bowl the way she usually did, piling everything on top of everything else. She topped it all off with a huge chunk of chocolate cake, her eyes looking almost mezmerised. She barely got to one of the benches before she started to eat, scoffing the food in mere minutes, shovelling it down the way she had that first night on the island. She sat replete for a moment, enjoying the warmth of the canteen the scents of warm food and well being which filled her every pore. Her blue eyes closed as her tongue lapped out at the chocolate, and other remnants on her short furry maw. "Colche like chocolate cake" she whispered to noone but herself her belly finally starting to feel full for the first time in ages. It wasn't long before she was up again though, going for a second helping though she was more choosy this time round. Food didn't taste that good all mushed together.

Thankfully, the scales on the other woman prepared him enough not to be too surprised when she flicked out her yellow tongue. "Yeah, I guess I'm kind of new on the island," Avery grinned a little at her. "I got washed up on shore... been here for a few days. My name is Avery... want some Skittles?" he offered, holding the bag out to Joliette.
