Skaldi nodded to the part about being able to track the scent of blood, but her smile dropped at the mention of the hunters. The hint of a scowl filled her face. "I don't like hunters. They hurt animals, and their guns are very loud and scary." She quietly admitted. "You're still bleeding... Will you let me help?" She asked, concern returning to her face.

Ash sighed "If you insist. Though I'm sure it would be much easier if I were in my human form" he said as his body started to shrink until he was at his normal height and appearance. Now that Skaldi got a good look at him she could see that he was well built and was fairly handsome though one thing that took away from it was a scar on the right side of his mouth that went up to the bottom of his nose and went nearly down to his chin. "See what I mean by a failed experiment now" he said with a small laugh "I can't even go back to being fully human anymore" he added holding up one of his furred and clawed hands

Skaldi took a step back and waited until Ash was done changing, and nodded solemnly. The young girl probably looked dwarfed next to him, standing at less than five feet tall. That, along with her ears, really made her seem like a little elf. "There is nothing wrong with how you look. You would fit in at the castle." She declared before starting over to him. Skaldi's expression had went partly lax as she was concentrating in preparation to use her power.

"Thanks but I've been called many things since I escaped. Demon-spawn, child of Satan, hellhound and that's probably the least colorful ones that I've been called" Ash said "But what do you mean by castle? Don't tell me you're some type of princess of the Huldras" he said with a small chuckle

Skaldi frowned at the cruel names and shook her head. "No. Huldras don't have things like that. It was another castle." She wasn't quite sure how to explain where it was, considering it had been in another world entirely, but not exactly. When she'd reached him, she extended her hand toward the injured shoulder, being careful not to apply too much pressure, and began healing it. A warmth radiated out from her hand, following by a strange tingling and numbing sensation.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Well, I could use some help too, so we could help each other. I could help you get to a safer place and you can help me find my way back to this cafe where I'm supposed to meet my mom and uncle." The red-head offered mainly because she really did want to help this person and her phone had died an hour earlier.

Karma hesitated. "And how do I know you won't do worse to me?" They asked, even though they were pretty sure this person probably didn't have ill intentions. Unlike literally every other person they'd encountered that day. "And what cafe are you talking about?" The teen quietly added as an afterthought.

Ash seemed to tense up when she approached him but visibly calmed as soon as he felt the warmth from her hand. He could feel his wound start to hurt a lot less as it was healed which made him sigh in relief "Feels a lot better already" he said as he closed his eyes "So you mentioned another world. I'm guessing thats where you come from?"

(Yep! I'm not not one for hiding giant secrets, so I wanted that to be slipped early on. In case anyone was curious. He and Holly are immortal, they can die, but they regenerate, he knows this, she will soon. He's bored of life, apathetic now to others to the point of killing.
Basically? He's a villain, chose to be, and hes the 'Zephyr' mentioned in the siblings past. Keep track of things with him, he fills in a lot of the past.)

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Well, My mom and uncle would kill me if I tried to do anything like my brother." The red-head said before smiling, "It's supposed to be where my cousin works. Like, It's also supposedly the best cafe in town and the only one open all day everyday even holiday's." She answered about the question and held her hand out for the tiny person to get on. "I'm Sally by the way. Sally Roger-Myers." She added proudly.

(Nightlight, lol. ^^ That gets me every time.)
Pip walked along the roof, slowly at first, before breaking into a run. She jumped to another house top and slowed as she walked to the edge. Pip dropped down into another alley. Karma's words echoed through her mind as she walked. "Beh quiet!" she hissed to herself, before turning onto the street. It was a different street than the one Karma had walked towards. There weren't many people on it, considering how late it was. It would be harder to take anything this late at night. Pip was tired. She needed to go back to her normal size soon. It took about twenty minutes for Pip to arrive at the abandoned building near the edge of the city. It was a fairly small place, the size of a small shack. She was surprised the building hadn't been taken down yet, and she hoped it wouldn't be for a long time. She walked in and closed the door behind her. The entire place was empty, except for an old beaten-down dollhouse in the far corner. Pip shrunk down, down, down until she was about the size Karma had been. Ah, it felt good to be back in normal size. She walked to the dollhouse and opened the front door. She proceeded up the stairs to the top floor, where her bed awaited. It was plastic, but had a pile of scrap fabrics to cuddle with. She moved the ABC block she used for a bedside table, and counted all her money for the day. A sigh escaped her. She didn't have enough money to get the nice new dollhouse she wanted. A few more days of this should do it. If only she had managed to keep that fifty from Karma... She slipped into her bed and she thought of their little exchange. That was when it dawned on her. Her actions that day. They greatly resembled what 'they' used to be like to her. She shivered at the memory, and curled up deeper into her cuts of fabric.
(A little background, in case any character finds this bit of information and wants to pin it on her, she was once a scientific miracle child about five years ago. I realize that's not much information to go off of, so tell me if you want to know the details that would've made it to the public. Also, her appearance of age will change frequently throughout the roleplay.) --- (Chaos, should I add to the last post I made of Ollie, or what's happening? Sorry for all the questions. ^^ Just want to know what I should be doing.)

"...yes." Skaldi answered after a moment of hesitation. Once the wound appeared to be healed, she removed her hand and took a step back. Her healing power always left her feeling a bit drained, depending on the extent of the injury. Fortunately, Ash's wound only left her feeling momentarily light-headed afterward. "Where are you from?" She asked, hoping to change the subject. Karma fell into a sullen silence, arms crossed as Sally tried to convince them that she only wanted -- and needed -- help. There was only one such cafe in the city that stayed open at all hours and Karma was quite familiar with it. They went there with their friends a lot. Back when Karma didn't have a home, they made use of the cafe's free WiFi at every chance they got. It would be no trouble locating the place. However, it still stung the teen's pride to have to be carried around like some kind of child's toy. Their face burned with irritation and they scuffed at the ground with the toe of a black boot. When Sally introduced herself, Karma looked up and almost absentmindedly responded with their true name. Fortunately, they stopped themselves after the first letter. "Karma." The hero said quickly. Karma glared at the open hand, but after another moody pause, finally obliged and stepped into the girl's hand with a sigh. "Fine... I'll show you where the cafe is. Just... try not to drop me." They grumbled.Jack Looking at the pictures in a museum,he was particularly drawn to the abstract ones.They had what looked like no effort or idea put into them but could still inspire and strike curiosity."I wonder what it was like,getting something done by you remembered.And I don't mean helping take down Rome."He looked up to the pigeon on his shoulder,getting weird look from the people nearby. A teen boy stood some distance away from Jack, looking disinterestedly at a red and black painting. If he turned his head at a certain angle, it almost looked like a big fat spider. What kind of people made this stuff? Demented ones, for sure. Milo wasn't into art or museums, but he was hoping to avoid his twin sister. The museum was perfect. It was the very last place she or anyone else would ever expect to find him. He merely needed to pretend to look around until the place closed. ( Light: Poor Pip. I'd like to hear more of her backstory ^^)

"Don't remember where I grew up sadly. Don't have any memory of my childhood before I got taken to that God awful "research facility." But if you want to know a general location of where it is, try somewhere in Nevada" Ash said "So yeah that means I ran across the country to get as far away from that place"

Skaldi wasn't sure where 'Nevada' was, but assumed it was far away from where they were currently at. At some point, she remembered hearing some people call the place 'Capital City', while other people called it something that sounded like the name 'George'. She still wasn't familiar with the whole idea of cities within states and states within countries. "I am glad you got away from that place. It seems really really bad... I am from Norway."

Jack looked onto the next paintings until he saw a teenaged boy."You don't seem that interested in the creation in front of you."He had spent much more time on this planet than he'd hoped to but had picked up a few things here and there."If you're going to pretend to look like you want to be here,maybe stop giving the paintings looks that make you look like someone trying to kill a snake for getting into his fruit."

Milo turned to Jack with an incredulous expression. "Yeah? Well, for one, snakes don't eat fruit. For two, I really don't give a crap about any of this stuff. I'm just here to kill time." He scoffed, turning his attention back to the ugly spider painting. Something occurred to him and he glanced back at Jack, frowning at the bird perched on his shoulder. And I thought I was the weird one...

Jack glared at the boy."Did I say the snake was eating the fruit?Youth are always dumb."He sighed and stroked the bird."But wouldn't you be mad at the snake?Scaring away all the buyers,making you broke and living on the street?"

Ash looked at Skaldi with a look of mild shock "You're actually a long ways from home then" he said "Why move here first of all? And what about your parents? Surely they didn't just let you leave Norway by yourself?"

Milo turned his attention back to Jack, lifting an eyebrow and nodding toward the bird. "Here's a better question. Why are you walking around a museum with a bird on your shoulder? That thing's gonna end up crapping on you." The eighteen year old pointed out with a smirk.

Ash looked at Skaldi with a look of mild shock "You're actually a long ways from home then" he said "Why move here first of all? And what about your parents? Surely they didn't just let you leave Norway by yourself?" Skaldi nodded to the first statement with a fleeting look of sorrow. The second part gave her pause. Her eyes pricked and she squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, and shook her head. "No. No, they did not mind." She murmured, clearly uncomfortable with the mention of her parents.

"You think I'd bring an untrained bird into a public place?"Jack chuckled slightly,looking down at the boy."A the reason he's here is because he likes this place."

"There should be no way your parents wouldn't care unless they weren't that good at being parents, which I hope isn't the case or they're de-" Ash said before he finally sensed Skaldi's uncomfortableness "I just mentioned a touchy subject, didn't I?"

"I'm surprised you even got past security. They only allow service animals here, and I doubt your pet helps you see or anything." Milo shot back disinterestedly. "And what do you mean, he likes it here?" He frowned, one eyebrow lifted. Did the guy believe he could talk to animals?
Skaldi winced and nodded, her gaze having dropped to the ground. "Yeah... They're gone. All of them." She quietly explained.

"There's these things called windows."Jack retorted blankly."And to answer the latter,his nest is in that corner."He pointed to the corner behind a statue of a guy thinking.

"Shit" Ash said as he looked down to the ground "Sorry to hear about that. I'm sorry for bringing it up as well. Guess I've become pretty bad at social interactions in the past few years. Guess that happens when you spend two years in the wild attacking people"

(Wow. Irony. XD)
Milo scoffed again when the guy pointed out the nest. "Oh, well that makes sense. A museum is a great place for a pigeon. Plenty of statues to crap on." He joked sarcastically. "Don't tell me you live here too."
Skaldi shook her head. "No, no. It is fine. People ask me about them a lot. You didn't know." She quickly interjected. "It happened a long time ago... There was a war." The girl further explained.

"Still it's still insensitive to assume things about your family when I don't know anything" Ash said as he got up "Well, I guess I should get going. I've bothered you enough, though it was fun being able to actually talk to someone for once. Thanks for healing me"

"No,if I lived here that'd mean you had a scrap of intelligence to notice."Jack replied calmly."I don't have a home."He said so with pride,not particularly caring what the boy thought.
