"Most animals need a better sense of smell since they use it for hunting. Ferrets are no different" Masaki said "I just didn't realize that you had a time limit on your humanoid form. Probably shouldn't have assumed anything about you seeing as we just met not even half an hour ago. If you don't mind me asking, what is your limit?" He asked as he continued to follow Farlow, slowing his pace down slightly now that he didn't have to chase after such a small and quick animal. It was easier for Masaki to keep up with a human rather than an animal after all.

Farlow nodded in agreement. Although there were often minor differences in the reasons of scent between each animal, the purpose Masaki mentioned was a common reason between predators such as him. "It varies. If I reserved my energy, I could most likely hold this form for an entire day, maybe two- but afterwards, I wouldn't be able to go back into it until a few days have passed," he replied to Masaki's question, glancing back at the fiery fellow. "I usually only use it a few hours at a time." He tossed his hood back over his head before they passed a group of people inspecting damage.

Farlow paused by Steve's blood and sniffed it. Recoiling, he gave it a wide berth, as he made his way to where Masaki stood. Once there, he padded around in a circle, bringing in all the scents he could. He could smell Masaki's fiery scent, the victim who smelt of mushrooms, the sweet fragerence of a child, a thicker, almost metallic scent of another man, and... hardly recognizable, it was something cold, the man whom Masaki was intent on chasing. He'd found it. Having given his word to Masaki, he knew he had to carry it through. Fire and ice. Although part of nature, both were a fearsome trial to most animals. Farlow shivered, but without complaint, he lifted his nose to the air. Scents whirled around, but he managed to single in on one scent. The scent of the ice-user Masaki had spoke of. He gave a churr to alert Masaki and started bounding away in his ferret form. --- (Any time! ^^) Snake hissed. What was this man made of? He had originally spat the poison with the intention of the pain it would bring to the eye, with the blindness as only a side bonus. When Jerome extended his spikes, it shoved Snake's tail away from Jerome . Some spikes managed to pierce between the unnaturally tough scales. Snake hissed in pain, and flung Jerome to the ground, his tail withdrawing. Jerome stood up dizzily but heard the snake hiss and chuckled."Looks like big bad boy stumped his toe."

Ray watched with vague interest. Jerome seemed quite resistant. It was intruiging how the metallic part of the man's power was so similar to his own skin. Except... Ray couldn't turn his skin normal. If only...
Snake hissed in anger. "I'm going to give you more than a sssstubbed toe!" His tail lifted and the end straightened, gleaming in the light Jerome gave off. In fact, it seemed the end of Snake's tail had a metallic point. And much like a scorpion, he stabbed down at the growing annoyance called Jerome.

Masaki blinked in surprise "Sounds like a pretty big drawback to being able to turn into a humanoid creature" he said "Is it tough knowing that you can only be in that form for a limited amount of time?"

Farlow was silent for a few moments. Masaki's question confused him, but gradually a new understanding dawned. "I suppose, being human yourself, you see it as a drawback. I was a ferret before I was ever human. Having been born and raised as one, it is my natural form. This form grants me the chance to communicate with humans, but ultimately, I am most comfortable in my normal form." His eyes narrowed. "But times have changed." He went silent and slowed. They were getting close.

Masaki rubbed the back of his head and looked at the ground "Yeah, I guess you're right about that. I mean being a human isn't always the best" he said with a nervous laugh before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a slip of paper. He examined it for a few moments before attempting to hand it to Farlow "Here, for helping me with this, this is all I can do right now. Give it to Ollie next time you see him. It's a way that he can communicate with me i" He said

(I'm in the same boat with you there. I've worked 16 hour shifts a few days lately, and there were a few days I had to work straight through with no break, and only time for a minimal amount of sleep between shifts. Really wish they'd hire some more people. Things are finally slowing down, so I'll try to be more active. I'm off every Sunday and Tuesday, so you can expect me to be on a little more on those days. Hope life is treating all of you well. Sorry for the absence lately.)

(Carrraaazzzy maaan. Hope you enjoy the job.) --- Farlow stopped walking and stared at Masaki, as he pulled out the paper. "A paper?" How was a paper supposed to communicate with another person. He'd never understand human technology. He took the paper anyways, and slipped it into the seam of his coat. "Very well. If that's your wish."

Masaki chuckled "It's all folded up and if you unfold it, there will be a number on it so that he can call me if he needs my help and an address is written down on it. He will easily be able to figure out how to use both of those things and if he can't his friends will" he explained "I should have figured you wouldn't have understood it. I'm sure a lot of this stuff is still new to you"

Ah. Now that made more sense. Holly once gave Master this 'number' to keep contact by. "I know a little, but I'm afraid I will ever get used to the strange ways of human." Farlow's eyes grew distant for a moment. He was a thing of the past, but humans are the masters of the future. That was why he must leave the future with them when the time was right. He smiled slightly. "I will deliver it to him." He turned away and nodded to the building beside them. "I am fairly certain the man you are looking for is somewhere nearby, around this corner."

"Thanks for the help then Farlow, I really appreciate it. Now I'm not expecting you to help me fight so I will take it from here. I'll see you some other time though" Masaki said with a smile on his face but to tell the truth, he didn't know if he would actually make it out of here alive. Boris wasn't someone he could easily beat after all.

(Skelly will probably reply with Boris next time he gets on. :3)
Farlow dipped his head. "May the fires of strength be with you." He didn't mention that he'd be sticking around. He couldn't in right conscience bring a wounded warrior to his enemy and leave him there. He felt partially responsible for the human. So if anything went wrong... he'd be there.

Masaki chuckled "That's a pretty fitting good luck for me" he said before he took off into the air to search for Boris. If he had known Farlow was sticking around, he would have told him to go home. He didn't want to put someone who didn't have anything to do with this in danger. He was afraid Boris would pull the same stunt that he had done earlier that day and he didn't want to see that happen so he had to make sure Boris was alone and that there were no bystanders around for him to use

Farlow disappeared into ferret form, and vanished from sight. He was going to lay low for a while. After all, there was little he could do against fire and ice without a proper plan.

(Ajjshfiajsj!I hate my schedule.Too gosh darn restricting)
Keep at it.The voice told him.Agitation is your greatest weapon.
Jerome's vision flash and he saw what looked like a spike."Copy cat."Snorted the man as he side stepped."So are you gonna hit me or just wear me out?"

Masaki was flying just above the second story of most of the buildings around them. He turned a corner and saw Boris walking down the street towards him. Masaki got closer until he was about 20 feet away from Boris "You on your way to kill someone else or on your way back from killing?" He asked as he got into a fighting stance

Boris smiled as he saw Masaki."Aaah,I knew you'd be back."He chuckled softly."Tell me,are you going to be smart and leave it or are you gonna screw up like you did last time?"He asked as his gaze flashed to Philo's body on the ground a few hundred yards away.

Masaki scowled when he saw Boris already threatening Philo "I'm not going to make the same mistake again. I'm not going to fight you when there are innocent bystanders around seeing as you have no regard for life but I'm not going to let you just walk away." Masaki said "Honestly people like you make me sick. You should be helping people with powers like yours and here you are going around killing just because you can. But what did you to him?" He asked

(Aw man! Hope you find a good rythym to run by.)
The metal spike was an pointy piece of armour that was fitted to his tail. Until now, he hadn't used the very end of his tail in plain view, which possibly explained why it hadn't been seen during the beginning of the fight. Snake hissed in rage at Jerome. "You ignorant punk. I'll sshow you the meaning of pain!" He yanked his tail from the stone floor of the cave and stabbed down in a flurry of attacks towards Jerome, with the full intent to pin him to the floor.

Up until the last spike,Jerome was dodging like nothing.Yeah...Rocks are a pain....He placed his foot down wrong and with it,he stumbled.And while that happened he was stabbed towards the top of the arm,pinned.He let out a loud and strange cry of pain.

(;w; Hang in there, Jerome!)
Snake, who had been growing furious, immediately calmed when it appeared he had the upper hand. A grin spread on his face. "Aw... That ssssounded like it hurt," he mocked, pushing harder. He had to get the most he could from this detestable man before he ended this little game.
Ray winced at the strange cry. Well... He supposed that meant he should do something. He moved forwards; Snake was too preoccupied with Jerome to notice his approach.
