Cion moved over to the opening of the cave. He looks out of the falls, scanning the area for Nine. He didn't see anything, so a slight intrest perked into his mind. He floated over to two. "Where's Nine?" he asks, poking an arm like apendange at the other. He hoped the other was doing well, out there in a world he did not know about, as well as danger all over the place. There were beasts out there, ones that were going to kill whatever pleased them. It was a dog eat dog world as humans used to say back in the old days. He was programed with a lot of information, including old sayings and things from older years. There was no use in pondering this at the moment, he needed to make sure that Nine was at least safe for the moment, before he could relax and get back to his conversation with Eight.
Hibiki sighed, feeling a slight breeze as the other two wized by. He was alone now, in the silence and darkness of the night. Taking a breath, he looked up at the overbearing mountain before him. It was cold, and even though he seemed to be alone, he could feel the presence of things lurking in the dark far off. For now they did not notice him, and he was not planning on allerting them any time soon to his being here. He slowly began climbing, allowing the cold air to fill his lungs with each breath. It was refreshing and nice, just what he needed to help clear his head. So, from what had happened, this was the future...well since he was last awake anyways.
He was number nine of how many he did not know, but they all seemed to not be fully human anymore. As he had seen by his own power, he was no differense in a sense. He took another breath, he was going to have to get used to this. With those things out there however, power was a plus. He needed to get some training in...that was how they did it right? He paused for a moment, looking back out over the darkness beyond his location. This was very odd, and a lot to take in.
He figured the girl and Ryker had made it back already, he wondered if either of the now wounded females were feeling better. In one day one had wounded her hand, the other her leg. They would be in danger if they were unable to heal safely. Then again with this reality, it was almost impossible to know what would happen and if any of them would survive. A growl to his left caused him to pause, he could feel the mind of something there, something inhuman but it did not feel completely threatening. He stood still, as what seemed to be a large muzzle moved closer, examining him.
He could feel the hot breath of whatever it was hit him, causing him to close his eyes. The beast must have stood well over his height, but for the moment it made no move to harm him. Instead, a large thin tail like apendage wrapped around his ankle as he listened to the heavy footfalls of the creature moving around him. How had he not heard it approaching, he needed to be more careful. He might have been able to feel the presences of others, but if he allowed thoughts and worry to cloud his senses he was going to die. Another growl followed slightly as the beast moved closer.
