The next things he had heard bothered Shun as he had come to a similar conclusion to Desmond. He was about to try and see about getting past the crevice, but the vampire ended up blocking the entrance. Grumbling lowly, he just stood back. So much for trying to put his shadow step to practice.
While he was trying to get the crab away from Mitsu, Bent-Tail wasn't really paying attention to much else, so he failed to really hear Desmond's cry.
"Let go o'er!" he growled at the persistent crab, "Old on Mitsu.."
Grabbing onto the crab, the rat went on to try and snap its claw away from the body. These things regenerated limbs anyway right?
Not quite expecting the answer to be ready at hand, Blade wasn't entirely certain what to make of it. Then again he never really tried to speak with a mute person before now. Shaking off the mild surprise, he nodded lightly to her.
"..Nice to meat you too," he said before bringing up his knees and resting his chin lightly on top of them. The company was nice for once but... he really didn't know what to say.

When Klyde finally broke the kiss and pulled back a little, his eyes had started to regain some sort of normality. "You really are the best girlfriend." He brought up a hand to press to the side of her neck to help stop the blood flow there. The wounds on his chest had already started to heal up, it was hard to say anything had happened aside from the blood and tears on his shirt. "You....were pretty impressive with the mountain lion." Maybe a touch scary but who was he to say anything about that? "One thing does bother me though." Pulling back a bit Klyde reached for one of her arms touching it lightly. He didn't try to reveal the scars so that he could see them again, Riyo had gone to the trouble to cover them up. "Who did this to you?" His voice held a note of anger in it like he promised punishment to whoever had caused it.
When Bent-tail grabbed for the crab it started to snap at him with one claw while holding on with the other. The fight was short though as it's claw was broken free from its body and it was pulled away. The sight of the one claw still attached to her pants didn't seem to settle too well as Mitsu flailed about trying to get it off, tears gathering in her eyes out of frustration. Finally it fell free and Mitsu leaned forward with a relieved sigh. "M...maybe we should head back?" She offered, which was really I need to get out before they gather and attack. Making her way toward the crevice from before she started through but quickly found an obstacle. "De...Desmond?" He looked a little....squished.
((Ha ha Nice to 'Meat' you. Sounds like something Lou would say XD))

((oh! now I get what kind of tend you're talking about XD lol))
Coming to a complete stop once he was past neko, Ken leaned on the nearest tree, being quite out of breath from running full ball for so long. He was able to witness the janitor's magic and was slightly amazed. His magic seemed to be quite versatile; he had witnessed him create holes in the ground as well as use his shadow to hold people down.
"Tha....thanks.." Ken managed to gasp out as neko walked off. There was no point in following him now, seeing as the cajun was down in out. But he wasn't going to take any chances, so when he got his breath back he quickly removed himself from the scene before he could be chased off again.
"Just as long as you leave my stuff alone" replied before she heard Nami's insult "And I should be asking you the same question nami. Why aren't you in the other tent screwing all the guys?" And of course the other two had beds but only for themselves, stupid bitches. Finding the nearest corner that hadn't been taken already, poke started to unpack all her camping gear, which mainly consisted of the usual sleeping bag, pillow, toiletries, and even a DS. Yup, she liked her video games even on a camping trip.

No wonder people liked to do that so much... When Klyde pulled back, Riyo's head was this jumbled mess of stuff that used to be her train of thought. "I'm sure you say that to all the girls." Her mind had started repairs as soon as she heard his voice, rolling her eyes at his comment. The only thing she was best in was pessimism. As for the mountain lion... It was no big deal. She could take on something her weight or perhaps a little bit more... But not something like a bear... God help her if a bear picked a fight. Her face would be mauled faster than somebody could say "reconstruction surgery".
Riyo's eyes looked to the side as he asked about old wounds... "It's not just on my arms..." She reluctantly said, arms wrapping around her stomach. "I have them all over... And I can't tell you who did it." She could. She could tell him everything... But that wouldn't help her situation. If anything, it would only damage everything she'd worked for so far.
----
He was stuck. Desmond was officially stuck between the two small walls, looking panicked. "M-mitsu?! Are you okay? What happened?" He asked frantically. She didn't look any worse for wear besides a couple of tears here and there...
---
Kohaku was sort of at a loss for what to say (lol again). Okay. They'd introduced each other... Now what? Her hands played around with the pen she had, trying to come up with something on the fly. It wasn't every day she did this either, after all. Appearing to think of something, she flipped to a blank page and scribbled it down. 'would you like to do something besides sit around?' Perhaps a touch invasive... But he didn't look like he wanted to be alone right now...
----
"At least I get some, Poke." Nami proudly exclaimed, apparently not ashamed of everyone assuming she was a whore.

With Desmond in the way, Shun could not see what the hell was going on. But from the sounds of things, Mitsu might be ok now, though wanted to perhaps leave the cave. It was really hard to tell. Crossing his arms, he stared at the vampire who seemed to be stuck right now.
"Think you've eaten too many fatties," he commented neutrally.
"Yeah... might not be a bad idea... b'fore more o'dese things decide t'grab a'old o'us," agreed Bent-Tail while watching the crabs carefully. They were small, but it seemed that they meant business here.
Glancing down at the newly written words, Blade considered it for a moment or so. There wasn't a whole lot he could do while beaten up like this. There wasn't a whole lot he wanted to do right now either.
"No.. its fine. Thanks though," he said with somewhat of a weak smile.

Why did he look so panicked? And he sounded so worried. "I'm fine." Mitsu tried to reassure him taking a step closer to place a hand on his arm. "I got attacked by a crab, it pinched my tail, but Ben was able to get rid of it." Tilting her head she tried to take in his situation. So this is why he hadn't followed before. "A...are you stuck?" Maybe that's why he was so frantic, Mitsu could only imagine she would be too. Though she had yet to get stuck anywhere. Frowning at Shun's comment she tried to look around Desmond to see him but was unable to. "That's not very nice." She grumbled.
----
"Well, I dunno. I really haven't had that many girlfriends." It was true. He rarely had anything serious outside of a fling. If he hadn't managed to scare them away he generally ignored them. Because if they managed to stick around they were generally huge twilight fans that only managed to creep the s**t out of him. Who'd have thought there really were people that a vampire could fear.
When she refused to tell him who did it, the spark of anger only seemed to grow. Closing his eyes he took a deep breath and using the hand he held to her neck he pulled her close again. Wrapping his arm back around her shoulder he held her there, pressing his lips to her forehead again. "One day, you'll trust me enough to tell me." He seemed to be making a promise. Too bad it was a promise he was already destined not to keep.
-----
"Oo, kitten likes to scratch. To bad she has no claws." Tessa chuckled putting the finishing touches on her nails. "And be sure to keep your filthy commoner things tidy. I don't want to walk back into my tent thinking I've come to a garbage dump." She seemed very serious as she looked at Poke with a stern glare.

Riyo frowned at his words, closing her eyes as he kissed her forehead. "If you pay close enough attention, you'll probably realize it yourself." Though... There had only been one person outside of it to learn of what was happening behind the scenes... And he just recently came back into her life.
Atticus... That b*****d...
Riyo suddenly smiled, trying to push the bad thoughts out of her head. She took his hand from her neck and interlocked her fingers with his. "C'mon. Lets go do something." Do what? Hell if she knew. But anything was better than talking about this.
----
"It... Was just... A crab?" Desmond let out an exasperated sigh. He'd gotten himself wedged literally between a rock and a hard place... Because of a crab.
"It's a wonder you're not a comedian, Shun." Desmond commented and rolled his eyes, trying to push himself back the way he came. "Good thing I'm technically dead, or else I might be claustrophobic."
What to do, what to do. Oh, he had it. "Okay. I'm gonna let out all the air in my lungs and I want the two of you to push me as hard as you can." Maybe it'd work, maybe it wouldn't. If it didn't, he was screwed.
------
Well, now Kohaku felt stupid. The mute simply gave him a nod and continued to play with her pen, eyes focused on that.
"Ah, Miss Whitebird." Came a voice from the shadows of a nearby tree. And wouldn't you know it... It was Lou.
"And how are you this... Fine day?" In all honesty, he hated the daytime... But that didn't have to be discussed right now. The vampire was carrying a parasol and holding it over his head to shade himself from the sun's unforgiving rays. "Ah. And I see you're in the company of Mr. Faryn." He really hadn't sounded all that pleased, considering this was the little snoop who caused Suto so much grief. "You look like something the cat dragged in." More ironic words were never spoken.

"What does being dead have to do with having fear?" asked Shun. He supposed one part might be if someone feared death... but that wasn't always the case. With a shrug, he stepped back to make sure Desmond had adequate room should he be able to get out.
"Alright," nodded the rat. Glancing at Mitsu for a moment, he soon turned back towards Desmond to start pushing at the guy to hopefully pop him free from the crevice. If he was stuck, he wasn't sure what they could do. Maybe the water around might help a little..
Hearing an actual voice now, Blade glanced up to see no other than the school's vampire history teacher. A slight shiver ran down his spine as he recalled the things he had overheard that one night between Suto and this man. Wait. He was talking about a small mute student that night. There was really one one person he knew that fit that description and she was sitting right next to him.
... Why did it seem that all the vampires in this school were a part of some sort of conspiracy? The young thief was starting to doubt himself for a moment there, but quickly snapped from his thoughts as Lou addressed him.
"..You could say that," he mumbled, "What are you up to, Mr. Ferre?"

Klyde smiled as Riyo took his hand and gave a nod to her proposal. "Do something, huh? I like the sound of that." And finally his perversion reared its lecherous head. Seemed he had been holding back for a while, it couldn't be helped.
---
"Yeah...a crab." Had he thought there was something else?
When he gave them instruction on what to do, Mitsu nodded. "Okay." Waiting for him to signal she started to push against him. She wasn't very strong but with any luck with the both of them they could get him free.

"Yeah, we won't be doing that kind of something." She assured him, squeezing his hand a little. As she walked, she thought about the possibilities the last few hours of sunlight held. "Know of any good caves, bat man?" That would be fun right now. Dark places were always interesting.
Desmond released all the oxygen from his lungs as they began pushing... But only moved a little bit. When he realized this wasn't working, he took in a deep breath so he could talk again. "Because claustrophobia sufferers often hyperventilate when caught in situations like this. Obviously being undead I don't have to breathe." He spat, getting a little frustrated. "Well, I'm screwed." Too bad it was figuratively and not literally...
Kohaku only smiled to answer Lou's question, hoping it would answer for her. She really didn't mind Mr. Ferre. He had been very kind to her ever since she'd gotten to the school... But there was something all-too-familiar with his attitude....
"I'm simply out for a stroll. Honestly, I hate the sun... But there is nothing to do in these measly little cabins besides read." Devil knows he did enough of that in school already. "Are you children lacking the means to entertain yourself? You're more than welcome to walk with me~" It was really more of an invitation to Kohaku, but it was no skin off his a** if Blade chose to go as well.

As Desmond seemed to be stuck, Bent-Tail scratched his head before scooping up some water to try and splash it on the boy's sides to hopefully help lubricate him some. If this didn't work, he wasn't sure what would. Breaking the rock seemed rather useless. And none of Shun's magic would really help in this case either.
"Hrm."
Closing his eyes, Shun tried to think what might be of use here. He supposed the could try to reach through to pull the vampire but he seemed too deep in for him to really get any good leverage.
To some extent, Blade didn't really want to go. However, he wasn't entirely certain about leaving Kohaku with Lou alone in the woods. While he did recall what Riyo said earlier, he didn't trust the history teacher's intentions fully. He might not eat her... but who knows what a potential ***** would do?
With a sigh, he pushed himself to his feet with a light wince, "I suppose.."

Mitsu sighed as she backed off when it was apparent it wasn't working. Now what? There wasn't much room to get around him, only a small amount of clearance above his head. "Maybe we should find another way out?" As much as she hated going back into the lair of crab she really didn't want to just stand here. "If we can get on the other side maybe we can help pull." She offered as she started her way back to the other cave.
---
"Bat man? I thought you said no nicknames, Buttercup." Klyde grinned as he continued. "Yeah, I know of some close by. There are a lot of side caves and stuff to explore." He started to head in that direction giving her a little heads up on the cave's inhabitants.
They weren't very far indeed as Klyde finally stopped at the mouth of the cave. He could hear voices just inside. "Seems like someone is already here." Curious, he continued on. "Let's go check it out."

If Desmond had been a warm-blooded creature, his head would've been hot enough to cook an egg on. "I'm a man stuck inbetween two walls, not a whale on the sandy beach." Lovely. Now his clothes were wet. Today sure was going just swell. "W-wait Mitsu. I think I might hear somebody coming in on the other side." the cave did have a fantastic echo, after all.
"I thought it was appropriate for the situation... Y'know... Since bats live in caves and people say vampires can turn into bats. A little superstition humor. Haha." she tried to explain, practically gagging at the 'buttercup' he'd so lovingly attached to the end.
Her ears gave a twitch at the voices coming from inside the cave... They sounded vaguely familiar. "Alright then." Hopefully they wouldn't stumble upon some couple having... Alone time...
Kohaku gave a happy nod and stood up behind Lou, ready to do something besides sit on her butt. And even better, Blade would be going with them.
"Lovely." Lou said simply and continued walking. "Did you two know there's a rumor of an abandoned church with a haunted cemetery close to these grounds? Fascinating, no?" Probably just a rumor one of their stupid students made up, but it made for conversation he supposed.

Shun was going to make a comment on the whole beached whale bit to follow up his previous cutting out the fatties, but distant voices caught his attention instead. They sounded vaguely familiar but he wasn't too concerned... just as long as it wasn't a pair of idiots coming in.
"Thought it might 'elp lubricate ye so ye can get out," shrugged Bent-Tail. Hearing the people as well, his ears twitched over in their general direction. His location in the cave made it a little hard to pick anything specific out.
"Well at least we might 'ave some 'elp 'ere."
As they started walking, Blade lagged behind the vampire some. It was mostly because he didn't want to walk all that fast with the way he was feeling all around.
"I've heard of it. Don't know much about it though," he said. It was just something he had heard offhand, but he didn't really look into it. The thief wasn't too superstitious so he wasn't exactly worried about hauntings and that like all that much.

"Looks like its Shun." Klyde said as he got a little closer. Another more familiar voice pulled his attention toward the crevice in the wall. "Well well, look who it is." He grinned as he peered in. It looked like Desmond had managed to wedge himself in there.....but how and why for that matter. "So....you know I'm going to ask right?"
"O..okay," Mitsu could heard the voices as well. They sounded familiar. "Is that Klyde?"
Eyebrows raising Klyde tried to look around Desmond. "You got Mitsu back there too? Is she stuck?"
"No, I'm not stuck." Mitsu called back.
Well...that eliminated the possibility that Desmond had tried to help unwedge her. "So...back to that question."
