Melanie locked eyes with Nicky for a moment before yeilding, "Okay, we'll deal with this situation first, but as soon as possible I'm taking care of your wound, I know how you feel about injuries, but I'm not letting you bleed to death just because you're stubborn." The red panda opened her kit, and took out the quickest of her 'pain-killers', giving herself a dose directly itno the blood stream via injection "I'd offer you one but I'd doubt you'd accept" she muttered half to herself. Before returning the empty surringe to it's place she warningly wagged it at Nicky, "I will tranq you if necessary, so you'd better see me later."
It had only taken a few moments to deal with the kit, but there was still the child to consider, but before she could worry about it further, what appeared to be a conscerned mother came and sat down by the child's side, his eyes flickered open at her touch and the ghost of a smile crossed his face.
He was in safe hands.

"Okay, let's go,"
Unsteadily she got to her feet, at the moment she could walk, albeit painfully, but it was better than nothing.

Tails gasped at the sight of the overlander, scuttling backward on his rear momentarily before turning heal and making a painful attempt to make good his escape. Luck, however, did not seem to be on his side at the moment, for no sooner had the kit broken into his run did he meet a rather taller pair of legs, clad in oily loose-fitting cargo pants. Too late to do anything but brace for impact, the unfortunate kit careered headlong into them, falling back on his rump and pitching his head up quickly to find himself looking up at an unfathomably high Raccoon-like face, gazing down at him disapprovingly. The kit froze. But to his immense surprise, the alien merely blinked and then strode around him, her shoulder still supporting the red panda that was hobbling slightly with every step.
"Is this everyone?" Nicky said openly as the others approached.

During the explosion, fexus had carried the small cat child with him as far as he could run. When the shockwaver hit, he cradled her as close to him as he could, and took cover behind some trees. She screamed in his arms and then cried, yelling "Mommy!"... When the flash ended, he held her up. "Are you ok? nothing hurting?" he asked. She did nothing but continue crying, holding onto him. "I want mommy... she's not comming..."

He held onto her, letting her cry off the despair that was also in everyone elses mind right now. "Don't worry, i'll stay with you." He looked around, and amazingly his scan glasses still worked. He looked around for any stealth bots, and saw 2 left. The rest were lost in the explosion according to the reading. Apparently they didnt clear the area and were looking too close at the ship before it blew. The other 2 retreated, while fexus say not knowing what to do next. He honestly didnt want to go back, but snively would instantly call him a traitor if he didnt show. He decided to play this carefully, as he took of his goggles and smashed them againsed a rock next to him. "Aww, a shame. Without communication, i might have an excuse to stay here a bit longer..."

OOC: Would this be dead, or is there yet room for one more?

IC:

The grey wolf regarded the proceedings with keen, ice-blue eyes.

These, are the lauded heroes of Knothole? They act more like a dysfunctional family than a resistance unit. Thank heavens I didn't join them sooner.

From his perch in an overhanging tree, the watcher looked on in amusement as they bumbled around, tending to their wounded. He shifted his weight, allowing the cloak wrapped around his dark grey bodysuit to adjust to the change in position.
Almost immediately, the smooth fabric appeared to change colour, even texture, as it blended in with the dense foliage of the tree.

Active camouflage.

To the uninitiated, a technological miracle. To him, a lifesaving item stolen some years ago from a place far from here. Whilst it did not render him completely invisible, he was certain it would keep him hidden from these woefully unwary folks...

As the alien passed, the young kit continued to stare up into the tree above him. Did that clump of leaves just move? Was that a flash of grey, or...?

"Hey, guys, did you see that?" The fox inquired cautiously, pointing at the tree.

---

The wolf squirmed internally as many pairs of eyes trained in on his position.

A thousand curses upon the vulpine kind!

OOC: Well, it seemed to be dead but with any luck it might revive itself.

IC:
Melanie and Nicky had been making their painful way among the villagers to try and locate the rest of their crew.
Melanie still wondering if it had been such a good idea to let Nicky wander about without medical treatment, but she knew until the situation was over her stubborn companion would refuse any help.
While the pair were casting around for Toby and Melanie checked up on a few of the injured they heard a cry from a young fox and turned to see what was attracting attention. For a few moments she couldn't see anything, then she began to make out the form of creature hiding among the tree branches.
"Nicky, can you see what I see?"

The alien fox seemed to become more active for a time. For a moment, just a moment he stepped quickly and seemed to be on guard as he seemed to bounced in front of both the small fox and the young human. He almost seemed to be doing to protectively.

However his moment of fighting prowess was fleeting and his arms and legs once again fell docile only a moment after he'd jumped in front of the two children. His voice almost seemed annoyed as he stated bluntly, "There's no danger there."

Ic:
Mute was just reaturning to the forest before anyone saw him. He heard someone call out "Hey, guys, did you see that?"
He quickly turn hoping they weren't talking about him, and saw that the saw fox wasn't pointing at him but up in the tree.
He quickly ranover, forgetting his fears about being seen, saw just slightly something move but not much.
he called out.
"Hey you, come down from here, or am I going to have to come up!"

OOC: That I haven't done much lately been a bit tried up with school and stuff.

(OOC: OMG! IT LIVES! MUAHAHAHA! i got bored...)

Walking with the young cat child, Fexus took in the scenery, a very grim one indeed. The refugee ship was completely ripped apart, both from the crash and explosion. No chance for any survivors inside now...

As he walked, the child tugged at his shirt. "Hm? what is it?" the child simply pointed over to his left. There were bushes and pieces of the huts clumped, and out from under the debris a blue boot stuck out. "Hey, someone's there! Good eye! Lets get them out of there." he said to her. He walked up and put her down. She stood there, as still and as quiet as anything could possibly be at that time. He lifted up a wood plank and pushed it over, revealing the unconscious victim.

"Oh great..." Fex said to himself "It's princess Sally..."

Thoughts ran through his head... "Don't touch her... she's a main enemy, helping her would put me on the top of Snivs list for sure. But... he doesn't know whats going on here. For all he knows, I could be dead right now." He knew that if he helped Sally, that there might not be any turning back. Snively has his ways of finding things out, but sometimes he doesn't...

The girl walked up to Sally and leaned in. Fex went over to her "Wait, she might be dead..." But the little girl didnt listen to him, instead she gave Sally a slight push, like a child waking up their parrent when they've had a bad dream.

"Uhh..." Sally let loose a moan from being disturbed gently by the child.

"(under his breath)*Crap*.. er... I mean, Princess! Are you ok? " he said.

Through his mind, he told himself "Guess I'll have to play it by ear... I suppose I could be a spy now, but... for who?"

(OOC pt 2: Hey, It's been a while, so could everyone that still wants to participate do me a favor and before your next post, describe the characters you will be using? Example, heres who i'll be playing as now:

Fexus - self explanitory. He is a foxcoon, so looks like a fox but with some markings from raccoons. more info on the character profiles page maybe?

Snively - Yes, I'll be him. SOMEONE has to play the bad guy...

Sally - Eh, why not. Sniv is the bad, Sally is the good. Fex is the... who knows.)

*revives* (blame it on boredom.)
