((Sorrry i'm so late. Gets out of school at five res time and computer is going slow right now Dx))

Jackie laughed. “Yeah I guess she is kind of strange. But in a way, she reminds me of my mom.” He looked over at Rose’s puzzled ex
pression and tried to imitate his mother in a woman’s voice. “Tuck your shirt in. Do the dishes and take the trash out. Make sure you don’t scuff your jeans.” He looked over and laughed. “Sorry about that.”

Leah looked down at the gr*censored*. She didn’t want to leave Dusty all alone to suffer. She had controlled her powers but she wished thee was a way she could help him control his own. Her nose was getting runny and she wiped it with her sleeve. She felt a painful sadness come over her but she knew not what it came from. She looked up and wondered if she should check the sky once again. She shook her head and lay down in the gr*censored*.

((Ugh, I wont be around for long today. I swear, whoever destroyed my internet connection at my house is getting their head bit off! >_>))

The sun would be setting soon, Dusty could feel it. He was trembling violently and he dug his nails into the ground, trying to keep from crying out. The last few minutes before sunset was always painful and tonight was no exception. He looked over at Leah before he panicked and dashed off into the forest. He knew she would find him soon enough, but he wanted to spare her from having to watching him transform. He leaned against a tree, gasping for breath, as his body changed into the form of a large black werewolf. Aside from a tuft of white fur on his chest, he looked like he was made from the shadows. 

((To lazy to describe the transformation >:P)) 

((Bleh, school. I might not get on too soon tomorrow because i have to go to Bakersfield to do this thing to represent my school. Cl*censored* president isn't very fun. Meetings suck. DX))

Leah watched as he dashed off. It was happening now. She desperately wanted to be able to see if the way he described it was as terrible as he thought but chasing him into the trees probably wouldn't make him feel very good. She looked back at the reflection-less water and straightened up, slowly floating after him. 

Jackie sighed. "Maybe you're right. I can't help feeling that this bubble involves Leah, but when i really think about it, it's the same with all of us. We all have to be here for some reason, or we wouldn't be here at all. Right?" He looked back at Rose, hoping she was following him in his conclusion. 

(rofl)

     "Maybe." Rose smiled, turning her head to stare at Jackie. "This can't be normal though. Maybe someone... imprisoned us in this bubble. I mean, with Leah being all ghost, Brenn and I being shapshifters, you being... telepathic? Or something? And then there's Dusty. And Susan, maybe she really did come from a different time. That would explain the 1941 thing. And the ugly clothes." she wrinkled her nose. "Maybe only people like us can get in, but normal people can't?"

Dusty pawed around on the leaves for a few seconds, allowing his paws to get used to the sensation before walking off in the direction that he smelled the humans. He grinned, even as far away as he was, he could still smell the scent of fear. He was temped to let out another howl, but he held his tongue. He wanted to try to sneak up on these humans.

At the sound of Dusty's howl, Rune jumped up, making himself dizzy from the sudden movement. He leaned against the tree for a second until it pas-sed then dashed off in the direction Rose and Jackie had went. The couldn't afford to be separated right now.

((hi sorry i haven't been getting on recently. It's been hard with school and all. I didn't win an award at that competition thing either. Bleh, those math tests were a waste of time DX))

Leah narrowed her eyes and darted through the air to the camp where she came up to the others. "Everyone, Dusty is coming this way. He told me you should use force if you have to. He doesn't want anyone to get hurt and i honestly don't want to hurt him, but we don't want to let anyone get killed here." She eyed them each.

Jackie was in some state of panic but he knew what was to be done. He only had powers of telepathy which meant he wasn't  great fighter. But when situations cropped up, he would have to use levitation(which is part of telepathy mind you). He prepared himself. He was also confused as to why Leah was in her ghost form. He shook his head and looked towards the direction he thought Dusty might spring up in.

     Rose grabbed his arm. "Don't attack unless we have to. We don't want anyone to be lost too fast." she breathed. She took a step back and concentrated, feeling her body lengthen and sharp teeth piercing through her gums. She shifted into her Cheetah form. It was one of her fastest morphs, and it could also be used to fight.

     Brennion was still sleeping.

(He's a heavy sleeper. Dx What a stupid character. I don't really like him anymore. :p)

Rune cursed and looked around. He was still furious at Dusty for not telling him about the moon so he wouldn't hesitate to try to beat Dusty unconscious. He grabbed a sturdy looking stick and quickly sharpened the tip with the small pocket knife he always carried around. If he couldn't get a corpse to fight Dusty, he'd do it himself the old fashion way. 

Dusty paused and sniffed the air. There was a group of humans just ahead. His mouth watered at the thought of his fangs ripping through their flesh. He crept forward, step-by-step until he was at the last line of plant-life that would hide him. Snarling, he jumped past it and landed on his back feet. He looked at each human before dropping to all fours and howling a battle cry.
