The raccoon panicked. What do I do, what do I do?! He thought, pacing a little on the limb. Then a comic book came to mind, That's it! Comic 10 in series four: The Case of Dr. Callahan! Braddock defeated his nemesis by dropping a tree branch on him! He started climbing down to the point he was right over the white wolf. He got to a fairly good sized branch that was already giving way, and turned into his human form. He then braced himself against another tree branch, and started pushing against the other branch, finally making it snap off and fall on the wolf. Unlucky for him though, he fell with it.

Allison heard the branch crack and she and Rosie jumped out of the way and a raccoonish man fell on top of the wolf and it ran away but not before biting the man...

[Kung_Fu_Master]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan looked at Jericho oddly, and was about to say something when he had already walked off.
"I, uh, okay.....now where is this person...?"

She looked where Jericho had stormed from, and saw a girl standing there.
"Are you the new person Jericho talked about, hon?"[/font]

Kozopi turned to look at the person the voice came from" Siobhan," she said with great excitement, "it's been so long. What happend to your hair? What would ever make you want to cut your beautiful hair?"

Kozopi shook her head, remembering that it's been four years. "Oh wait, you propable don't recognize me. I'm Kozopi Kitzune, an anichi that was adopted a few years back. If you don't mind I need a place to stay for a while."

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Azrael blew a raspberry at her quote.
"Movie buff, much?"

He tilted his head to the side, with a mix of puzzlement and remorse. Who had ever heard of not having much fun...?
"Ah, well, I'm glad I can be of service!"
---------------------
((OOC: As per request, Sio's and Tali's relationship is back to square 1.))
Siobhan looked down at the girl and smiled softly. She shook her paw and ruffled the girl's hair.
"And I'm Siobhan, but you can call me Sio if you want!"

When Kozopi came over, Siobhan's smile widened and she captured the younger girl in a tight-yet-gentle hug.
"Oh, Ko-chan, there's no way I could forget you and your antics."
She smiled and let the girl go.

"As for my hair...I, um, just decided that I needed a change. Anyhow, why are you back here? Didn't your adoptive parents like you? I can't see why they wouldn't..."[/font]'

[Lil_Ninja]

Allison heard the branch crack and she and Rosie jumped out of the way and a raccoonish man fell on top of the wolf and it ran away but not before biting the man...

OOC: Thanks a lot XDD;

IC: The boy tried to avoid the bite, but it was almost impossible. Lucky for him though, it bit his arm on his thick coat, which made it so the teeth only left a nasty bruise. He fumbled to get up, and looked at the girl and her dog. "Are you two alright?!"

~~

Maxine smirked as the continued to walk, not having much else to say. They finally made it to the kitchen door. She opened the door and proceeded in with him, glancing around the room for Kisho. "Where's your room?"

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]"Iunno, I just got here. Figured that I should eat something before I got acquainted with everything, so..."

Azrael looked at the ground from embarrassment, then did something he'd never expected to do...but he did it with style.
In one swift, fluid move, he had placed a light kiss on Maxine's cheek and stepped back just enough that he was out of her arm's reach.

"Thanks for helping me, Maxy. I appreciate it."[/font]

[Lil_Ninja]

Maxine was about to comment on what he said when he kissed her. Her eyes grew very wide as she just stood there, like a deer caught in headlights. She finally came to her senses and an angry, and very confused, expression came across her face as she took a couple steps towards Azrael, and punched his arm. "I-If you ever do that again--I'll.. I'll-- Do something!" She blurted out, not having anything better to say.

Talison looked at her and transformed back into her panther form which took up most the space of the kitchen (( they are in the kitchen right?)) She licked Sio's hand and purred softly. Then she transformed back into her slight form and said softly " I am talison, but you may call me tally if you want I am only nine years old and I don't have a mommy or a daddy..." She talked like she was younger than nine but she couldn't help it and she also had a slight lisp on her S's and TH's

IC: The boy tried to avoid the bite, but it was almost impossible. Lucky for him though, it bit his arm on his thick coat, which made it so the teeth only left a nasty bruise. He fumbled to get up, and looked at the girl and her dog. "Are you two alright?!"

Allison nodded and said " Are you all right that looked like a pretty bad bite... I mean I have had wolf friends before but that was a rival's to my wolf friend's pack and she smelled Ebony which is my friend's scent on me so she thought I was a threat..." Allison knew she was rambling again and she couldn't help it. Rosie turned around and limped on her cybernetic leg towards the boy and licked his wounded arm to let him know she thought he was a friend.

[Kung_Fu_Master]

"Anyhow, why are you back here? Didn't your adoptive parents like you? I can't see why they wouldn't..."

"W-well um, you see.....they had to go on a trip and I didn't want to go and there's not really anyone around that they could trust me with so this was the only place I knew that would good.", trying her best not to sound like she's lying. "Don't worry, they'll come pick me up when they get back."

" I am talison, but you may call me tally if you want I am only nine years old and I don't have a mommy or a daddy..."

"Well hello tally," coming to eye level with the girl, "You know, I remember the day I was first brought here. It was a little scary at first but after a while the people here became like family and I'm sure everythings going to be great. If you need any help just let me know, okay?"

[Wind]

Talison looked at the person right in front of her and said " so, what's your name?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OOC: I have a character on the roof if anyone wants to go up there

[Lil_Ninja]

The boy nodded, clenching his wounded arm. "It's just a scratch!" He said, using a 'tough' voice. He smirked and pet the dog, then looked back at the girl. "We should probably head back to the house. Who knows what other animals are out here." He told her, taking a couple steps towards the house.

Allison stood and said " My name is Allison, what's yours? oh and this lovable character is Rosie... " She looked confused for a moment and said " So, which way is this house of your's?"

[Lil_Ninja]

"Call me--Dalton. Dalton Braddock." He introduced himself. "Oh, it's not my house. It's some type of refuge for anichi or something." He told her as he started walking towards it. "I actually haven't even been inside.."

[Wind]

allison took a step forward and collapsed, her ankle bleeding pretty badly " That wolf must've bit me... Anichi what are anichi?" Rosie growled and went over to Dalton and whined looking into the forest, Allison heard answering growls and said in a soft tone" It sounds like the wolf went and brought her whole pack back..." She stood even though her ankle hurt and said " go the general direction of the house and walk slowly..."

[Lil_Ninja]

Dalton was hesitant when the girl said she didn't know what Anichi were. Is.. Is she not an Anichi?.. His eyes grew large when he heard the growling. Get a hold of yourself, man! Think.. What would Braddock do?! He walked slowly towards the house, trying not to make any threatening gestures. "I'll make a distraction so you two can escape to the house." He spoke in a whispered tone, then waited for her to disagree so he wouldn't have to go through with his plan.

" Don't do that! if you create a distraction wolves are very smart they will go after the only other canine around and that's rosie... so please don't ok..."
She continued walking and stumbled on a tree root she fell flat on her face and the wolves closed in around them then all of a sudden a large black wolf came from the brush and Allison yelled " Shadow please help me..." The large wolf looked at her briefly before he charged start at the leader and all the wolves ran off except one... they looked at each other and they all left except the black one and he came up and licked Dalton on the hand and laid down next to allison...

[Lil_Ninja]

Dalton nodded a little, extremely relieved he didn't have to go through with his plan. He started panicking when the wolves closed in on them, and hardly moved as the scene took place. "I-uh.. What just happened exactly?" He asked the girl, reaching down to help her up.

[Wind]

" this is shadow and he's a dominant male wolf and he stared the other one down and made them go away..." She petted him and looked down at her ankle which was bleeding pretty badly, so badly in fact that she passed out and shadow came over to dalton and shifted into his slight form " you said your name was Dalton right my name is shadow I am an anichi who lives among wolves please protect Allison she's human but doesn't have a home anymore and she doesn't know I am anichi so could you please keep it that way..." He transformed back into his wolf form and looked at him as if to say Take care of her now

[Derek_Is_Me]

Being ignored by Tallison who decided to talk to Siobhan instead. Storm decided to just sit on the bed and wait.

[Kung_Fu_Master]

When no one was looking jericho doubled back to a place he could overhear Kozopi's and siobhan's conversation, "There has to be some reason she came back," he thought to himself, "she wouldn't return after what I did to her."

"What the heck(other word) am I doing?! I don't care about this!" he yelled almost a little to loud storming off in the oppisite direction.

A sigh came from one of the open rooms jericho just past. Without thought jericho looked inside. There sat Storm on a bed of an empty room. "What are you doing?" he asked.

[Nami]

Jago smiled and thanked him silently. He scribbled on his notepad again, then showed Kisho, *By the way, my name is Jago*

Kisho smiled, "I'm Kisho..." he said that as the race started between Maxine and Azrael. And then he saw Azrael plant a kiss on Maxine's cheek, and something flared inside of him, he looked at Jago, "one sec." he turned sharply and marched toward Maxine and Azrael, he pulled Max away from Azrael and glowered so darkly at Azrael that any person who stood by could feel his hate.

------

Affinity stepped out of the library and came around the corner to see the scene, a smirk firmly planted on her face, she grinned widely, "Well, well, a little bad blood between men! That always causes such fun." she snickered, and a wet nose poked her hand, she looked down, "oh there you are." she patted the red-fox's head, "so... tell me everything.." she pulled the fox into the library and closed the door.

OOC: XDDD KISHO'S MAAAD! XDDD

[Derek_Is_Me]

Looking up Storm saw Jericho standing there asking him what he was doing."I feel lonely and ignored. I don't know what to do around here. Besides looking at the night sky and the clouds." said Storm to Jericho.

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan smiled sweetly at Talison, and rubbed the little girl's back.
"Oh hon, I'm afraid to say that it's the same for me. Maybe we can get along well, hm?"

Turning back to Kozopi, Siobhan placed her hands on her hips and tilted her head to the side.
"Mm, okay then. I'll make sure to take care of you until they DO come back. I won't let them down!"

-----------------

Azrael held up his hands defensively towards Maxine, and chuckled nervously.
"Sorry, it was an unconscious response--"

It was then that he was staring up into the face of the intimidating Phantom Cat.
This...wasn't a good place to be. Now he KNEW that he shouldn't have kissed maxine's cheek.
"Dude, um, is this your girlfriend? If it is, I'm TOTALLY sorry, dude. I didn't know, DON'T KILL ME!"[/font]

[Lil_Ninja]

A small malicious smirk came across Maxine's face when Kisho showed up on the scene. She was a little surprised at the hate radiating off of him, but she figured Azrael deserved it. She was about to interject and deny being Kisho's girlfriend, but she left it alone. Perhaps if he thought she was, he would stop flirting with her. She stepped a little in front of Kish and put her hands on his shoulders, "Kishy, don't kill him. Leave me to do that. You know I enjoy it so." She made a joking face only Kisho could see, then stepped to the side and pulled on his shirt sleeve, "Let's go before you make him wet himself." She told him, motioning with her head to another room. Honestly, she'd love to see Kisho scare the living daylights out of Azrael, but she knew how he got when he grew angry, and she didn't want him doing something he'd regret..

~~~

Jago smirked and nodded to Kisho, as if saying he was pleased to meet him. He watched as Kisho entered the kitchen scene. Uh oh.. Looks like this might end badly. He thought. If he needed to, he was going to break up a fight.

~~~

Dalton nodded a little to Shadow. This was all so crazy! He looked at her unconscious body on the ground and hesitated to help her. What would Braddock do?.. He asked himself, then remembered a famous quote from the well-known detective. 'It is up to us to protect our fellow humans, no matter who they are!' Dalton took in a deep breath, and ran around, looking for something he could use to get her to the house. He spotted a large piece of bark that was broken away from a tree, it was big enough to put a person on. He grabbed it, set it next to Allison, and managed to get her on it. Then, he started dragging the bark, with her on it, to the house.
After a while, he finally managed to drag it all the way to the front door, then began to knock loudly on the door, hoping someone would hear and let them in.

[Kung_Fu_Master]

Looking up Storm saw Jericho standing there asking him what he was doing."I feel lonely and ignored. I don't know what to do around here. Besides looking at the night sky and the clouds." said Storm to Jericho.

"Welcome to my world.", jericho said as he sat next to the bed. "Most of the people here aren't friendly. They complain about you not helping then when you do they complain about you not doing it right or you get hurt in the process. If you want to live here the best thing to do is just leave them alone so they'll do the same to you."

____________________________________________________________

[Quote=Wind]" So, what's your name?"[/Quote]

"My name's Kozopi Kitzune, but you can call me Kozoni-chan if you wish." smiling at the girl. After her talk Kozopi faced Siobhan. "So Sio is my old room still useable?"

[Derek_Is_Me]

"I guess your right. The best thing to do is just stay out of peoples way. I just wish there was something more."sighed Storm while looking at Jericho sitting next to him on the bed.

[Wind]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan smiled sweetly at Talison, and rubbed the little girl's back.
"Oh hon, I'm afraid to say that it's the same for me. Maybe we can get along well, hm?"

Turning back to Kozopi, Siobhan placed her hands on her hips and tilted her head to the side.
"Mm, okay then. I'll make sure to take care of you until they DO come back. I won't let them down!"[/font]

[font="Book Antiqua"]Talison looked at Sio and said " thank you... I didn't mean just to appear out of nowhere but I don't know where my mommy is..." She looked at the other girl and said " Okay, can I call you Sis?" ( Kozopi is a girl right?)[/font]

OOC: hey Hana, could your character know that Talison's mom dropped her off there but you can surprise me with why she did ok

Dalton nodded a little to Shadow. This was all so crazy! He looked at her unconscious body on the ground and hesitated to help her. What would Braddock do?.. He asked himself, then remembered a famous quote from the well-known detective. 'It is up to us to protect our fellow humans, no matter who they are!'

[font="Book Antiqua"]Shadow transformed into his human form and said " You need to find someone quick... cause she has a wound on her leg and there is blood on her chest area..." Allison stirred and moaned painfully[/font]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[font="Book Antiqua"]Alsae looked down off the roof at Dalton and jumped down out of nowhere and said " What's going on maybe I can help?" She didn't mean to make the wolf jump but he growled and the girl moaned in pain and whispered the name Dalton... in her unconciousness[/font]

[Kung_Fu_Master]

"I guess your right. The best thing to do is just stay out of peoples way. I just wish there was something more."sighed Storm while looking at Jericho sitting next to him on the bed.

"I know what you mean. These days it seems as if there's no point in life." jericho remarked.

OOC: To wind, yes kozopi is a girl.

" Okay, can I call you Sis?"

" Sure. That's okay to." smiled kozopi as she pushed back some loose hairs.

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

" Sure. That's okay to." smiled kozopi as she pushed back some loose hairs.

Talison looked at her and said " sis, I think I hear someone on the porch..." She looked down the hallway and sighed " and it doesn't sound good..." Talison grabbed Kozopi's hand and lead her to the front door where there was a wolf, a girl and a boy stooped over the front steps

[Lil_Ninja]

Dalton nodded to Alsae a little frantic. "I-uh, can you help her?" He asked, motioning to Allison. "I'm not sure what all's wrong, but her ankle's bleeding bad.."

~~

Jago heard talking at the front door, distracting him from the commotion in the kitchen, and decided to investigate. When he peeked out the window, he saw a girlin pretty bad shape accompanied by a young boy, a girl and a wolf. Feeling the need to help, he opened the front door and gestured for them to come in. He made a face to the girl gesturing to Allison, wanting to know if he needed help getting the girl in.
