( Introduction Post.)
Dark clouds mottled the sky against the crescent moon, stars gleamed and twinkled. Silhouetted against the buildings she walked silently, her tail swaying to and fro with a lazyness. Demonic ebon horns sprouted forth from her head as she grinned evilly, she chose to keep her wings hidden unless there was a dire need for them. It was unusally dark on this side of town the street lamps had been broken, or the light bulbs had died out. The road itself would be horrid to drive on, it was poorly cared for, cracked and worn. Sauntering slowly she crossed the street and walked into the only building with any sort of light on, a bright flickering neon green sign which read "Club Toxic".
The building was black on the outside, with no windows or any way to let light in. When she had stepped inside she'd noticed it was very dark, and for a human or a dayturnal furre, it'd be very very hard to see. The cieling above her was very high, the building seemed to have two floors, and hidden somewhere within the darkness were the speakers blaring music down onto the bodies below, causing them to tremble in beat with the bass. She walked up to the bar and sat down, she couldn't see the figure behind the counted but heard a voice ask her, "What'll it be, miss?" she looked at the counter and replied, "I'll just have a water, for now." she turned on the swivel seat and looked out on the figures which were basically engulfed in darkness. Club Toxic, such a fitting name... The few lights they did have, were of a neon green color, and UV lights lit walls which had weird sorts of patterns in UV paint. She looked back at the counter and sighed softly, taking her water in her hand and sipping slowly...
-
Tink sighed as she landed on the ragged dirt road ahead. These building were horrid. She licked some grass off her wings from the trre's and changed into human/furry form. She walked until a stranged building caught her attention. 'Club Toxic' it read and she swund the door open slowly and noticed, not even a single light was on. She slapped her head for being so stupid to stop here, but it was too late. Alot of furry scent filled the room and she whisperd a spell for night vision. She blinked and her sight enhanced. Tigers, Cats, and even a bunny sat in the room. She bared her teeth because she knew they couldn't see her.
"What will you have on this lovely night?" The short wolf-like bartender asked and she sighed.
"I will just have some rabbit blood."She said and he slid her a cup of the finest. She sipped it once and rested on the stool. She looked to the white tiger beside her. She looked bak at her drink and placed it on the wooden table. Tink frowned and sighed in sleepiness. "I need to find a nice cave," She said in a whisper and sipped her drink again.
-
*~Nyx slumped in the corner of the dark building. Her pursuers were gone, but they had left their mark. They had mangled her cybernetic arm pretty badly. She reached into her pocket and loosened a few screws, then removed a metal plate to reveal a mess of tangled wires. Some were ripped and sizzled with blue static. "Damn those scientists." She sneered, looking up to the black mass of dancing silhouettes. She had ran inside the place so quickly that she had not paid attention to where she was. But painted on the black wall in neon green paint it read "Club Toxic."~*
-
Tink caught the scent of another dragon and sneered. "WHERES THE DRAGON???" she snarled and looked around. The dragon was in the back. She chnaged into Black dragon form and blew a form of crystal air out and looked around the back wall. "I see you, Don't be afraid to show yourself." She sighed and sat with a loud THUD cracking the floor.
-
Looked up with sudden interest, finishing her water she asked the barkeep to give her a shot of humans blood. She turned, her elbows resting on the counter once more as she watched intently. 'Heh, this might just be amusing...' she thought to herself as she took her shot glass and downed it, licking her lips. Her ears twitched slightly as she turned everything out but the two dragonesses, tail curling around her leg lazily.
-
*~The dragoness unfurled her wings and shot into the crowd hoping that she would blend in. She had only heard someone shout "Where's the Dragon?!" against the booming music. There was no way she was going back to the institution that she had so narrowly escaped from. Nyx replaced the metal plate on her left arm, and looked around, eyes wide with fear, tail curling nervously around her right ankle, hoping that she hadn't been spotted by those wretched humans...~*
-
Tink smashed the tables as she angrily paced the building. "Show yourself!" She growled again and smashed a paw through the floor. The humies were scared now and they all ran out flaring they're arms. She growled and jumped again. She flug 3 tables in one blow and looked around the building.
-
Giggled softly, very amused. So much drama, it always seemed to happen in Club Toxic. She lived for it. "Hey, stop smashing up the club." she said standing up and walking out to where Tink was, she shoved aside a human and was standing right next to Tink, looking up, being that Tink was taller than she was. "You're scaring off dinner." she sneered, and then looked over at Nyx, shaking her head taking her paw to her own forehead and sighing softly. "What's with all the commotion anyways.."
-
"Our kind is very rare...." She snarled. "I will smash If I want too". She smashed a humie into a wall and growled at The Tiger. She scowlded outside and knocked the door off because she was soo tall and she swooped over the town and came back. "I take flight to calm down." She thought and touched ontop of a roof that had crashed through a building.
-
*~Nyx ducked as a table flew at her head, then took refuge behind some of the dancers whilst the enraged dragon continued to throw a fit being unable to find her. She wondered if this creature worked for the scientist, since they had been known to brainwash a few of her kind. The dragoness was unable to hide anymore as the last of the panicked club-goers scattered and disappeared out the club doors. By then her left arm was throwing off blue sparks, unable to function properly. She looked up to see what she could only describe as a demon tiger as it confronted the flustered other. She clutched her cybernetic arm; she had to find some tools soon, or her arm would be finished.~*
EDIT: Oopsy, hehe. I thought she was reffering to Nyx since she glanced at her after saying it. ^^;; Fixed now.
-
(( I was actually referring to the scurrying humans. I don't feed on Anthromorphic beings. ^^;))

She grinned to herself and looked around her, at the few humans and other furres left, then to Nyx. She walked over slowly, offering her paw to help Nyx up, "Are you okay?" she asked her smoothly. She often spoke with little to no emotion in her voice or facial expressions. Her eyes flickered around the now gawking others and she turned around and growled menacingly, "What are you all staring at?" watching the others either look away or leave, she turned back to Nyx, offering her paw once more. "Do you know what she wanted with you..?" she asked, a slight hint of curiosity on her voice.
-
Tink stormed back in "I am a pure dragon!!!" She roared in pure fury!!!!! "I am not working for those idiotic scientists!!!" She snarled and crashed the tables left standing and scared away the rest of the furries. She huffed and stared at the dragon and her eyes widend. "YOU!"she yelled and ran to nyx. She sttod right in her face. "Why are you soo scared??!?!?" She yelled in question. She glanced at the Demon Tiger and snarled a bit...
-
Kaz smirked and stood there, arms crossed over her chest there was a sort of sarcastic air about her now. Her smug look was further accented by her tail which casually waved to and fro behind her, ears twitching lightly. It was silent now, the music had stopped and the only ones left were Kaz, Tink, Nyx, and the shrouded barkeep.

(( Dad is demanding I cook dinner, so I will be back shortly. Continue on without me, i'll pop up out of nowhere later. x3 ))
-
*~Surprised by the kindness of the stranger, Nyx took the tiger's paw, standing up to the best of her ability. She looked around uneasily scanning the crowd, then spoke, "Well, I just escaped one of the wildlife institutions on the outskirts of the city. The scientists that experimented on me lost me"
'I HOPE.' she thought as if it were a reflex...
"When I came into this club." She held her left arm as it sizzled with electricity. "They managed to scr@pe me up a bit, but my best guess with the other of my kind is that she was working for those scientists. They've been known to brainwash some of the furs around here." The dragoness smiled warily; but snapped back to a snarl when the other dragon roared in her face.
"Why are you so scared?!" the other demanded.
"You haven't seen the things I have," Nyx replied shrewdly, "You haven't been experimented on and stripped of your home and memories. All thanks to those beings. I'm only fearing for the moment because I fear to imagine the punishment they have in store for me if I am captured. My arm is finished if I don't find some tools. Right now I'm vulnerable."~*
-
Tink layed her head down guilty. She sighed and placed back all the tables she knocked over and changed into human/furry form. She grabbed her drink and headed to the motel down the road for the night. She mumbled under her breatha she slammed the door open grabbed a room key and stormed up the stairs. She got to her room, locked the door, and threew her kets on the wooden stool at the end of her bed. "Nice day huh mom!" She snarled and thought about her mother who had been caught and killed when she was 11 and her dad sent her off on her own to live or die. She jumped onto her bed and placed her drink on the nightstand beside the bed. She grumpled and turned out the fuel lantern sitting beside her. She placed her collar on the stand too, around her drink, and went to sleep for the night.
-
Looked over at the previously aggrivated dragoness and blinked as she propped the tables up again. Looking over to Nyx she asked her curiously, "What kind of tools would you need, exactly?" she sat back on her bar stool and murmured something to the bar keep who handed her another drink. She took it in her paw and traced her finger around the rim of the glass, an odd sound reverberated from it.
-
*~Nyx took a spot beside the demon tiger and placed her metal arm on the bar. She pulled out the screwdriver she had been previously been using and loosened some screws, then removed a metal plate from the arm and sat it adjacent to her arm with a light clatter. Looking up at the tiger, she pointed to the wires. "I'm not too sure what tools I'll need. Something to repair these wires. It'll be more or less like a trial and error process for me since I don't know very much about how the scientists made my arm... But I'm sure I can figure it out after a while... or damage it more... I dunno. I don't know anyone who can wire and fix things besides the humans, so I'll have to try to figure it out myself." She looked back down at the wires that were no longer throwing off sparks, but were now frazzling slightly. " I guess I should've waited until they were finished 'improving' my arm to escape... But what they were doing to me was... painful."~*
-
Frowned and ordered Nyx a soda, slipping a few dollars onto the counter where they quickly disappeared. "I'm Kaz, by the way." she said softly, taking her cup to her lips and drinking slowly. "And you are..?" she set her glass back down and continued to move her finger around the rim.
-
*~"Name's Nyx." the black wyrm said while replacing the plate on her arm. "It's nice meeting you Kaz. I appreciate your kindness... I haven't experienced that in a while. But I don't take charity." Nyx leaned back on her stool and held her weight up with her tail. "I indeed wonder what that other dragoness wanted with me if she doesn't work for who I escaped from."~*
-
Tink awoke from the suns rays and raised her upper body off her bed. She wiped her nose and eyes from the crust and blinked a few times before she pulled the covers off and took a quick shower before she would head back into the club for some breakfast. "Gahhhrahhhgh!" She yawned loudly and slipped on her clothes and shoes. She yawned again and headed out the door. Before she left she grabbed her drink and collar and slipped it over her muzzle and around her neck.
Tink walked into the bar and sat on the stool. The others were sitting and drinking coffe and reading the news. Tink smiled at the others and got some freshly toasted eggs and a rabbit. "Ahh, The mornings are beautiful!" She said sitting next to the demon Tiger and smiling. Tink sipped some of her day old rabbit blood and sighed.
-
She nodded to Nyx in understanding of not accepting charity, and apologized humbly. "It's nice to meet you too, Nyx." she looked over at the door as someone stepped through, it was Tink. She smiled in greeting, "Feeling better now, eh?" she asked grinning as the seat next to her was taken.
-
"Yes I have reasted from my flight last night. Sorry for that act of outragement last night. "She said frowning. Tink sipped some more of her blood and ate the reamining egss and gulped down the rabbit befrore turning around and getting a refill of her rabbit blood.
-
"Heh, not the first time i've seen a fight here, eh?" she reached over to Tink and patter her back gently, She looked up at thebarkeep and ordered a small glass of humans blood and a plate of steak, which was almost raw. She yawned softly and then looked up at the T.V. Finding herself to be uninterested by the events of the human world she looked around the Club, it was still somewhat thrashed. She shrugged and turned back around to her now raw steak, lifting her clawed paw up and swiping at it, watching the pieces fall apart in thin strips. "Mmm, steak." she purred softly picking up a strip between extended claws.
-
*~Nyx looked over at the two creatures conversating. "I dunno if I'd call it a fight." she said as she was screwing the plate back onto her arm. "I didn't do much of anything."~*
-
Kaz shrugged and placed the strip into her mouth, chewing it slowly. She looked over at Nyx and nodded, "Well, I suppose you are right then." she said between chewing before picking up another strip and biting it in half.
-
*~The black wyrm slipped off her black tattered trenchcoat and fashioned it into a sling to hold her (for the time being) useless cybernetic arm. She pushed off the floor with her tail and whirled backwards, now leaning against the bar. "I have to find somewhere or someone that can repair my arm. Hopefully somewhere inconspicuous. I wouldn't want those humans tracking me."~*
-
Tink glaced at the Dragoness over her cup and swallowed it all. She glaresd around the bar and sighed. "I have had a thrilling stay here...." She mumbled and walked outside the bar door out of sight and changed into dragon from and let out a silent'but she knew the other furries could have heard it roar. She laughed and smiled. "Whew...Been a long day!" She mummbled and took off over the bar, the force gave off was extreme and it shook the metal roof.
-
Boots wet from trudging through mud and the filth in the streets, head aching from days without sleep, clothes grimy from days of work, so far life as usual for "Emo"
Walking inside, notices loud music and smiles to himself, "thats my song"
Walks up to counter and just tries to relax
-
Kaz watched Tink leave once more and smirked to herself, licking off her claws from the steak she had eaten. She looked back to Nyx, "So how exactly are you going to go about getting your arm fixed, if you don't know where to do so?" she asked, slightly curious as her hand found a glass which had been brought with her steak. She took it slowly to her lips and gulped the thick red substance down, more humans blood. Turning on her stool she yawned and rested her elbows back upon the bar as she had before, noticing something comeing closer to the bar. The door, after all had been broken down. "Tsk, they need to get that fixed." she sighed and shook her head, watching the male take a seat at the bar, wondering what happened to make him so.. Filthy.
-
*~"I'm not exactly sure." Nyx said scratching her head. "I suppose I'll wander around until I find somewhere." She took notice of the guest as he walked into the bar and sat, "Unless one of you know of a place?"~*
-
(rubs sore eyes and feels more tired)
Uhmm....can i have a nitrogen mix? *is given clear drink with smoke coming off the top* thanks.
*downs it and shakes head, feeling more awake*
so damn tired, i need to find somewhere to sleep
-
Watched the newcomer wearily and responded to Nyx, "I honestly have no idea what, or who to go to for that matter.." she looked back to Nyx, "I don't spend my time around other people.." she said while reaching up and scratching behind her ear with a single claw, her periphreal focused on the newcomer.
-
*~"Me either. This is actually my first time out of the exhibit they had me in..." She said lowly.~*
-
*gets a feeling he is being watched and glances around the bar, noticing a figure in the corner of his weary eyes*
*sneezes and waves at figure, then turns back to counter*
-
Tink wanders around helplessly and turns back toward the way of the barn. "Ohh me...I guess I have to stay there a while." Tink sighes and touches down a couple feet away from the bar again.The sighn was dead of light and she crawled carefully trough the torn door and stared around from the doorway. She hissed as everyone stared at her and she looked around for her previously there "friends" Tink lifted her tail up and tucked in her wings tighter and changed to human/kistune form. Tink took a seat on the other side of Nyx and watched 3 or 4 people scurrie out with their drinks and the paper.
-
Kaz nodded to Nyx slowly not having been one much for sympathy, she tried anyways, "I'm sorry to hear that.." she said quietly, her gaze darting away as a grimace formed across her lips, the newcomer had seen her and waved. She looked out the door, noticing night had begun to fall and a dark figure coming in seeming to shrink. It was Tink. She smirked and nodded a greeting to Tink as she sat next to Nyx and then said, "'Lo Tink." Leaving some money on the bar counter she walked out the door into the darkness, not going far.. She stopped almost just outside the door and leaned against the ebon brick, a footpaw planted firmly against the wall as her arms crossed over her chest, she looked up into the moon and sighed softly.
-
*pays tab and walks out*
"excuse me"
*slides out of door past Kaz and goes in search of his contact*
-
Watched the male as he left and yawned softly before sayign softly, "Leaving so soon..?" she tilted her head and looked at him. After all, he had just gotten there.
-
*heard the comment and walked backwards*
Why, wanted to talk?
*smirks and stands looking her over*
-
She looked back at him with blank eyes, "Just interested as to why you stopped here is all." she replied simply, her eyes glinting in the moonlight. "I haven't seen you around here before." she cocked an eybrow though her face was partially hidden in the shadows. All that could be see was her mouth, and her silvery glowing eyes.
-
*~Nyx realized that she had been swimming in memories of the, what was now, past. She adjusted her homemade sling and nodded to Tink. It was time to take her leave. She walked to the exit of the club and stood there hesitantly debating on whether she should leave or not. After a short moment of uncertainy, she poked her head out of the exit and looked for anything suspicous. Of course, there was nothing but Kaz and that other furson, so she headed out the door, unsure of where she was heading.~*
-
Tink looks around and smiles. *walks out the door in a jog and catches up to Nyx* Whats wrong really?" Tink says putting her paws in her sweater pocket and her tails swishing back and forth.
-
I need to secure somewhere to sleep and work
and besides, i dont have money for another drink
*smiles and shrugs, walking backwards*
till we meet again
-
*~The dragoness looked at Tink as if she'd gone insane, then her face returned to a solemn emotionless slate. "Nothing.... I'm just concentrating on fixing my arm." She looked back at Tink and gave a weak smile.~*
-
She cocked an eyebrow at the now backwards male, and shook her head. She looked over to Nyx and Tink as they began to shrink off into the distance and shrugged to herself, walking to her right out into the dark street. There was a lake a short distance off, Kaz could see the shimmering surface of it and smiled slightly. Coming near the waters edge she looked up at the moon once more, before seating herself in the lush, yet slightly damp grass.
-
:razz: eats at a small diner, munching greedily on a bowl of noodles*
wonder if i should catch up with that lady...hmmm.....
-
*smiles and nudges* "I am not a scientist, and no, I do not want to capture you or take you back to disable your arm ^^" Tink sighs and smiles at Nyx. Tink looks around and notices Nyx trying to smile =] "Well, You may want to figure your path, before you meet up with another physcopath scientist." Tink hisses just thinking at the thought and glances at Nyx again.
-
*~"I'm sure I could handle them if need be," Nyx said, fakely confident. "I'm sure. But any help would be nice."~*
-
*Finishes up and heads out, trying to not fall asleep walking*
*finds nice place near a lake and curled up, having nowhere better to be*
If im lucky, it'll rain, heh, like it can get that bad.
-
Kaz noticed a figure near the lake and watched silently, blendling in with her surroundings. She moved behind the trees now and was behind him, 'Oh it's only him..' she thought to herself, foolishly stepping on a twig. 'Oh great..'
-
*hears the twig snap and rolls*
*catches something and takes hold*
Got ya
-
"Ack!" she fell on her rear, he had grabbed her foot from under her. "Curiosity hasn't killed this cat yet, but it certainly has gotten her tripped." she snorted softly and glared at him.
-
*looks around and smiles at Nyx* "I would like to help, I need to stay with someone, You are not the only one who has been caught Nyx..." Tink says ashamingly and hold up her back of her hoodie. *there is a 5 in scratch across her spine area* Tink frowns and lowers her hoodie, walking slowly up the hill, to the river below.*
-
Nyx's hind legs involuntarily took her after Tink. She had no where else to go... No home, no family. She felt she could at least stick with the ones she seemingly knew. When she arrived at the river's side, she sat gazing up at the moon as tufts or clouds lazily rolled across her view. She felt strangely at peace. As if the moon comforted her. She caught something out the corner of her eye as she was losing herself to the moon's natural beauty. Two figures.
-
*looks at Nyx and hides under her tails and pulls her hood over her head. Seeing the two figures move, and come her way* "Oh no, Tink ish in trouble." Tink thought and shiverd at the bite from the winds blow.
-
*stands and cricks back, popping neck and wrists*
any paticular reason youve taken an interest in me ma'am?
*looks her over*
-
She scoffed softly and stood back up, brushing herself off. "Don't flatter yourself, I was curious as to who was coming around here these late. I saw you walk up and I wanted to know who it was." she turned her head and looked over, two other figures. "Jeez, well isn't this just the hotspot tonight?" she said dryly.
-
Seems like it, ma'am
*brushes off pants, wipes hand*
*extends paw*
Names Eric, you got a job, ill do it
-
Looking down she blinked and smirked slightly taking his hand gently she shook it, "It's nice to meet you Eric. I am Kaz, or Rashii. Whichever you prefer." she nodded her head then shifted her gaze back to the other furres, "The only thing I could ask you is if you know of a place that can repair a mechanical arm?" she said as she looked back at Eric.
-
*thinks*
yeah, 'ol clockwork Lion i know, he could probably help you
-
She nodded slowly, "I see.." she looked back over at the other figures, "I believe that's Nyx.. And Tink.. Nyx is the one who is in need of this... Clockwork lion." she said motioning him to follow her as she began to walk towards them.
-
*scratches head and straightens up shirt a bit
well, shall we?
*bows
-
Moving slowly as not to alarm Nyx and tink when she came within ear shot, she called out. "Nyx! Tink!" she said waving, hoping to catch their attention. Still she continued to walk towards them and had finally come up close enough to be clearly visible. "I think, i've found someone who can help you Nyx.." she said softly pointing to Eric, "He knows of someone." she smiled softly and shot a wave to Tink.
-
*scratches at head, examins small insect he clawed, and flicks it away*
yup, i know someone who can help
-
As Nyx stood up, her dull grayeyes brightened to a more silvery hue, "Really?" She asked dumbfounded. "That's very kind of you..."
-
*smiles widely :th_Pyong-1:
glad i could help, just follow me
-
"Alright." Nyx said standing up. "Thank you so much. Lead the way."
-
*bows and turns*
you might want to stay close, rough neighborhood where were going
-
*leads the group through side streets and alley ways to a small garage
*knocks on door loudly
Mr. Gibs?, its me Eric, i have a couple a people who need your help
*a lound clanking and wheezing comes from behind the door, and a large lion with a robotic arm, leg, and eye is staring down at them
hi Mr. Gibs
-
Nyx looked up at the lion and grinned sheepishly. She had never seen another fur that had cybernetics like her. "Hi Mr. Gibs." she said softly, "You wouldn't happen to have gotten that way because of humans, would you?"
-
*Mr. Gibs growls deeply and looks them all over
*Mr Gibs, Yes, but partially due to my careless youth, please, come in
-
Nyx walked into Mr. Gibs housing and nodded replying, "I was captured as a young chick myself."
-
*ill be Mr gibs for the following parts
*Eric is passed out on couch
well, lets take a look shall we?
whats the damage?
*clockwork parts clinking and groaning the whole time
