After the clones of Shin were defeated by Vixen's immense power to the point that their bodies weren't even there anymore. Tenshi now had two medium sizes holes on his body; one in the middle of his chest while the other was going through his stomach. Both of them were bleeding at an uncontrollable rate, as he struggled to even keep himself conscious. Losing consciousness at this point was probably the worst idea ever, since even Tenshi realized that if he were to do something like that; the chances of him waking back up were extremely low. Slowly turning his head over toward the side to see that Vixen was kneeled beside him; asking if he was okay and if he was going to live. Breathing heavily, Tenshi placed a single hand over the hole over his chest to see if he could stop the breathing; even if it was a little bit. "I...I...I'll be o...okay.." he said with a little whisper, his own tone sounding strained as though he needed to cough; but Tenshi held it down anyway due to knowing if he did, he'd end up coughing up lots of blood. He had known that him saying he'd be okay was an absolute lie and he knew it deep down. 'At l-least...I..I'll see y-you again...mother..f-father..Yukito..and Hikaru..' he thought, the color from his eyes slowly fading.

Shin during this time was ready to charge forward toward Garrie to attack him with his own arm blade. Although right when he had taken a single step forward toward Garrie, his own eyes widened up when he had noticed a strange feeling go through his body. Looking around the forest that was still covered by the illusion, a little shocked expression spread across his face when he found out that his clones were all defeated. 'Dammit...m-my illness...i...its g-getting worst...' he thought to himself, realizing that they had died due to those newcomers. They were much stronger than he had thought they were. With a little scoff, Shin glared right back over toward Garrie for a moment before shaking his head lightly. "Hmph..guess we'll finish our fight next time little kitty." he explained before stomping his foot into the ground; causing the entire illusion around the forest to vanish along with his own body. Quickly dashing throughout the tall grassy field, only looking like a small black blur moving at full speed. While the clones of Shin that was fighting against Murdoc had taken the full force punch into the face and stomach; causing it to immediately explode into a small puddle of a strange burning black liquid. "I must report to Lord VIRUS...." the real Shin that was still dashing through the field whispered to himself.

Vixen pulled her shirt off- thank God she was wearing a sports bra- and used it to cover his wounds."I'll get you back to camp.maybe Garrie can help.I will not let you die.don't you die on me, too! I couldn't handle it..." she said to him.she gently held his body and dissolved into shadows, taking him with her.seconds later, the two of them were in the camp."just stay with me,ok? Don't fall asleep.Garrie! Help!"

Garrie had just caugh his breath and returned to his camp sight when the sound of Gemini's calling perked his ears to attention. He looked in the direction of the girl and darted to her side. Taking most of Tenshi's weight from the fox girl, Garrie walked over to the fire and laid him down softly.

"Damn that Shin..." Garrie growled under his breath as he examined the wound enflicted by the clone. "Gemini, come here." He nodded to the orange haired girl to come near. "I need you to apply pressure, like this." Taking her hands and placing them over Tenshi's wound, he pushed down as a model for how hard she should press. "If you can keep that pressure until I return, I can close the wounds."

Vixen nodded and took up her position over Tenshi's body, keeping pressure on his wounds."I've got it.hurry up, he's lost alot of blood already.we can't take any chances." She said, and wrapped her tail around the fallen angel, to keep him warm in case of shock.

Garrie returned in no time with some wild flowers, tree leaves and wild vines. He ground the flowers into a thick organic past quickly using two dull rock and gently applied the ointment to the enterance and exit wounds. With the leaves and vines he fashioned a sling and bandage for Tenshi.

"I'll get some water boiling for a tea made out of this paste. It's called Kava Kava, it will help keep him relaxed and the antioxidents will help his insides heal as well as his skin and outter organs. He's lucky to have had you with him. If Shin had gotten to him alone, he would have bled to death in that field alone." Garrie praised Vixen for her courage before he turned to tend to the fire.

Feeling some kind of cloth or something wrap around the hole on his chest to stop some of the bleeding; even though he was still bleeding terribly from his stomach. Tenshi continued to look over at Vixen with his eyes still losing their color, the last thing he could remember hearing her say was that she was telling him not to fall asleep. That wasn't exactly the easiest thing to do at this point, he was beginning to lose consciousness due to how much blood he was losing. As Tenshi was quickly carried away, it hadn't taken that long for him to lose consciousness as he began to dream. His own body had lost consciousness to try and keep him alive rather than use up more strength to keep him awake. As he slept there unconscious, unaware about all the things going on around his body while he was like that. He began to remember the days he had with his raven; Yukito. Many good and bad days went through his mind, his memories were passing him within his head like as though he were watching a really long movie. 'Yukito...' he thought to himself before his own raven flew straight up to his face within his dream; pecking Tenshi right onto the forehead before changing his own form into a more human-like one. Seeing his raven in this form was rather shocking, although right before Tenshi could say anything; is raven decided to speak first. 'I know your in this new world...they decided to call you Tenshi, but your name will always remain Makoto to me..Listen, I know I'm dead now, but I'll always watch over you Makoto. I've been still watching you, stop being such a coward. Look at you now! your about to die!' Yukito spoke out to Tenshi within his dream, sounding rather upset about what he saw. 'B-but...but Yukito!!...Y-your all I had left--' right after finishing his sentence Yukito ended up flicking Tenshi at the forehead. 'So?!...I know I'm all you have left..I understand your alone, I'm sorry..but...You need to grow up!!..move on!..I didn't end up risking my life to die for you to die too!! You have this new power! use it! Protect yourself, make friends..new bonds..protect them with your new found power!' Hearing those exact words from Yukito, Tenshi's eyes widened up within his dream from how much shock he heard. Slowly looking down toward his own feet, he began to think quietly to himself for a moment. Thinking about his parents, and his best friend. Maybe, maybe it was time to move on.

Shin at this point however had finally reached back to VIRUS's hideout as he quickly appeared right behind VIRUS from a sudden appearance of the darkness. Kneeling down before his leader, Shin had his head down while the bottom of his mouth was covered in blood from coughing earlier. There was also a large bruise on his chest due to the attack that Garrie inflicted on him earlier. His breathing was steadied by this point, as he stayed silent for a minute, thinking that VIRUS was probably upset in him for his failure to not do much damage but to harm the fallen angel severely. "Lord VIRUS...my deepest apologies, those newcomers..Th-they are much stronger..than I expected them t-to be.." his tone of voice sounding a bit weak from how badly his illness was taken affect.

Nagi decided it was best to take her advice and headed back through the forest to where the rest of the group was, apparently there had been fighting here as well. From what she heard from her earlier the fox girl, Vixen she though if that was her name, didn't seem to like her all that much. Didn't foxes eat snakes? That was a dumb thought, if there was a mongoose or something around then she would be worried. Of course thoughts of Inu ran through her head, she had only just met her. She wasn't one for rushing into things, if she saw her again maybe they could take it slow, but the taste of her lips still lingered and she yearned for her again.

At the moment of Shin's return, VIRUS has been pacing infront of his throne. Having seen each clone fail, along with Shin himself had given him an uneasy feeling. The human's from the real world, they weren't going to be as easy as all the fools that had come before them. It was perplexing, but VIRUS already had a plot in mind.

"Oh Shin you foolish man!" VIRUS started after Shin delivered his report. He thought of maybe mentioning the crow-demon's he'd had watching everything, but then thought better of it. Even a villan needs secrets amoung his men. "That cat you've told me about, the troublesome one, who's memories I keep locked in my crystals, he's becomming a thorn in my side... let's lull him and the others into a sence of stability." A twisted smile crawled across VIRUS' lips as he pondered his plot.

In the field, teary eyed Inuyami was running from nothing but her own thoughts. She couldn't stand the feelings she had building in her chest and stomach. Dusk was settling in now, and Firefly like bugs were beginning to wake up from the daily sleep. It was getting hard to see much further then arm's length ahead of you, let alone a few feet, Inuyami was clueless as to where she was or what might be lingering in the area.

After a long time, Inuyami tripped and fell into some soft wet mud. The mud stank like excriment and sweat, it was the third time today Yami found it hard to keep the contents of her stomach where they were. Being over powered by the smell and the emotional distress of the day, she'd finally lost the battle. Shaking violently as she purged into the mud, she tried to pick herself up and put herself together.

This place, it's to much. These powers inside me, I don't know what they do and still I control them as though I've had them my whole life. Mother... father... Jean-Robert.... Nagi... and the others... they don't deserve me as a burden as well. Perhaps I've been sent here to pay for the sins I've caused.

Damning herself for past and recent events, Inuyami punched the solid ground she'd moved to once escaping the thick mud. She burried her face in her hands her rested her elbows on her knees as she sobbed silently in a loathsome self pitty.

I am withdrawning from this game, I'm sorry everyone

Vixen's ears went back."I...I wasn't that much help..." she mumbled.she wasn't used to praise.she watched with some concern as Tenshi seemed to dream.it was good, she figured, that his mind was working.it meant he was alive.but it worried her to think he might be experiencing any near-death nightmares or shock induced visions.the worst part was, decidedly, that she could do nothing about it except keep him warm."just be ok, please." She said.closing her eyes, a lullaby that her mother used to sing to her came unbidden to her mind.without thinking, she sang it, needing the release as much as the comfort of the song.
((I've bern wanting to use this song in a roleplay for ages. YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. ))

(O_O I'm starting to want to make a third character xDD is that okay?)

Shin had flinched lightly with both his eyes squeezing shut for an instant when VIRUS had called him foolish. His thoughts that VIRUS would be upset with him were correct, keeping his head down and his eyes closed. Shin remained silent and listened in on his master's orders. VIRUS was truly the only person Shin feared due to his immense power that he already possessed even when he didn't have the vessel for the perfect body to control the entire digital along with destroy the digital world. Although, suddenly out of nowhere when he had heard him speak about some kind of cat becoming a thorn in his side and about his memories were locked within a crystal he had. Shin slowly looked back up at VIRUS, his eyes widened in shock from hearing him say that they should lull him into a sense of stability. "Lord V-VIRUS?..W-what do you mean?..." he asked with a bit of concern yet shock in his own voice.

Tenshi on the other hand at this point was still staring down at his shoes quietly, Yukito now in his human form was still standing right in front of his face; keeping a serious look across his own face and his arms crossed. Tenshi remained silent for another moment when his eyes widened up for a moment when he felt someone place their hand onto his shoulder. Gasping softly for a moment, he slowly turned his head around to see his best friend standing there; smiling brightly. Staring at his friend, if anyone were to look at him; it would be shocking even to them to think that he was originally in the yakuza. Although right behind his best friend was his mother and father, they were smiling with each other staring at their only son still alive but only by a thread. 'H..Hikaru?...M...M...Mom?...D-d..dad?' he thought to himself within his dream as all three of them continued to smile before nodding lightly once. Tears began welling up in his own eyes to see all the people that he loved, all at the sametime here at once. Biting down onto his lower lip, seeing them like this just told him that they truly were dead. This just made him want to die even more badly so that he could be with them; while in reality the blood coming out of the hole on his stomach began to gush out even more than normally. 'Makoto..we've been watching you..You've grown up to be such a healthy boy. Don't die now son..you need to keep moving on..dont worry about us..we're really happy even now.' Tenshi's mother spoke up first, with her smile warm and tender just like any loving mother's would be. 'Thats right son! we're doing great!...I saw your power that you possess in this new form!..your doing great!..don't you go dying on us now! Its not your time yet Makoto!' His father spoke up next with his own tone strong and happy, encouraging his son to move forward. 'Your mom and dad are right Makoto...I know, I told you to run that day..I'm sorry we couldn't stay friends longer; but we had great times, right?...Trust buddy. I'm doing great. Your parents have been taking care of me here. Now, dont you dare die on us! Live a strong life! Make new friends! and new bonds!' Hikaru spoke up finally as he slowly released his grip from Tenshi's shoulder, Yukito on the other hand began to smile as well; moving to stand next to Hikaru and Tenshi's parents. Right after all the talking, the sound of Vixen's singing finally went through to Tenshi's dream as his eyes widened up from within; wondering at first where it was coming from.

VIRUS smiled at Shin's inquasition, he had actually hoped he was going to ask. Her walked behind his throne and grabbed a red crushed velvet bag and took his seat.

"You see Shin." VIRUS started as he rolled a large clear glass ball from the red satchel. He waved his hand over the orb and it began to glow dimly. A closer look revealed the area where the lake met the ocean. "There is a rip there, between the world they've come from and this digital hell. They don't know it yet, but they are now bound to this world, and you've done well to make sure of that." Another pass of his hand over the crystal sphere changed the image. The two of them now gazed over the the entire view of The Room. Small red dots glowed within the darkening plain. "When you attacked them, parasited from your blood stream infected our new guest. I want you to show them the way out, do whatever you must. If they do not return before the eggs hatch the parasited will begin to devour their bodies from the inside out, and their doctors will be able to do nothing to fight the invisable enemy!!!" VIRUS let out a mighty and psycotic laugh as he threw his head back in joy. Things were going so well and Shin, being an unsuspecting pawn, had done his job better the anticipated.

As Garrie tended to the boiling water, he listened to Vixen's song. It was calming and her voice carried the tune beautifully. He tried, but he couldn't remember ever hearing music or a song before. Being that his memories had been taken, he wasn't very sure of anything. Taking notice of the change in aura around Tenshi's body, Garrie readies a cup of the Kava Kava tea and walked over to the two of them.

"Here," he handed it the tea to Vixen, "have him drink this once it's cooled and he if ready."

Vixen took the cup and cradled Tenshi's upper body in one arm."come on, wake up just a little.just enough to drink this.please.I didn't go through all this to see you die now.please." she whispered to him.
((That parasite thing...it's genius! Very disturbing, but totally genius! Inuyami, you are a mad genius.))

Listening to his family and best friend speak to him about encouraging him to live on and not to throw his life away so easily. Tenshi's eyes widened up as he lowered his head back down, tears beginning to drip down onto the floor within his dream world; while in reality tears began to also roll down his cheeks without him realizing it. Slowly enough, his best friend was the first to end up hugging Tenshi into his arms; feeling the hug his eyes widened up once again only to see Hikaru hugging him. Right after, only to end up seeing his mother and father coming closer to hug their son as well; finally to have Yukito come and hug him too. 'Makoto...' Hikaru started off first, his voice sounding just above a whisper so that only Tenshi could hear him. 'Even if we aren't with you anymore...' his father continued the sentence, his voice sounding just the same as Hikaru; just above a whisper so that Tenshi could hear. 'There is always one thing...' Yukito began to speak up as well right after Tenshi's father. 'That'll never change, even if we're dead...' his mother slowly began to finish the sentence as all three of them began to fade from Tenshi's arms; each one of them having a smile on their face. 'We'll always love you...' was all that was heard from all three of them at once before they completely vanished into thin air; causing Tenshi to finally snap back into reality with a gasp for breath. The wound on his chest and stomach were still there, but he was able to regain consciousness as he looked around quickly; only to see that Vixen was holding a cup toward him, helping him sit up while Garrie was also here; readying some kind of drink. "W-...Whats going on..?" he blurted out without even thinking too much about the wound that was still on his chest and stomach. His thoughts were still on what just happened, so the pain wasn't even much of a bother to him at the moment.

Hearing that thanks to his blood attacks caused strange parasites to go into the newcomers bodies; Shin's eyes widened up lightly for a moment before a small smirk spread across his face. This pretty much meant that the deaths of these newcomers were no doubt about it going to happen. Although when VIRUS had told him to show the way out for these newcomers; his own eyes widened up as his smirk immediately vanished. This was shocking indeed, why did VIRUS want these newcomers to find the way out; it made no sense. Although Shin didn't bother to say or ask anything; but rather just gave a little quiet nod. "Yes sire...I will show them..is that all Lord VIRUS?" he asked for any further orders, keeping his head down the entire time.

((Thanks, it was inspired by an old rp Happydeath and I were part of! =) I'd actually kind of forgotten Happy was the one who'd parasited my char until just now.))

"You're a lucky man to have a friend whom is looking out for you." Garrie said as he watched Tenshi come to from behind the fire. It was a relief to see that he was concious, that would be a good chunk of the battle. He stood and walked over to Vixen and Tenshi, kneeling down to adjust the make shift bandages. "If Vixen hadn't gone to fine you, you would have blead to death in the fields. Lay still now and drink the tea, it will sooth the pain and help seal your wounds."

It was then Garrie heard Nagi return to the camp site. A spike of get concern filled him when he saw that she was alone. Had Inuyami been defeated and killed? Was she laying dying because Nagi wasn't strong enough to bring her back the way Vixen had done with Tenshi? There was an unexplainable sick feeling in Garrie's stomach that he chose to ignore.

"Nagi, I'm glad to see you've returned." He tried his best to keep his voice from shaking and his heart beat steady. "What of Inuyami, is she.... alright?"

"Only one thing more, do be sure to inform them that if their out of the digital relm for over 24 hours, their parasites will hatch and there will be nothing to stop them in either world." VIRUS laughed sinically and tossed the ball into the air, caught in and repeated for a moment. "If they return before the time runs out, the eggs willl fall dorment and the time will start over again. OOOOH SUCH A WONDERFUL GAME! THEY'LL ALL THINK THEIR IN CONTROL, IT'S ALL TOO EASY!" The crystal ball was in the air as VIRUS joyously praised his own work, it came crashing down on the arm of the throne and shattered into dust from the momentum it had gathered. VIRUS' manic laughter resumed as he exited the large room threw a door behind a curtain to the left of his throne.

Alone in the field, Inuyami hadn't moved for sometime now. The sky had grown dark and over the eastern forest the moon was beginning to raise, shedding only dim light on the grass and sleeping flowers. The dog girl stood up and wiped her muddy tears with the back of her hand. She hadn't taken survey of this part of The Room yet and it wasn't until now that the feeling of something unsettling began to tickle her stomach. From behind the trees, an angry pack of Walooga boars had awoken and on the defencive. An intuder in their wallow? It was unacceptable.

Walooga boars were very similar to the wild pigs Inuyami knew from the real world. The stood almost five feet tall, had large sharp tusked teeth and a thick wirey mane down their backs. Primarilly the only difference was these pigs had four eyes and two large pointed horns much like a buffalo's. In terror, Inuyami screamed and began to run, a mistake if any she'd made. High pitch noises have been known to set Walooga's into a fit of rage and seeing the woman running only inticed the beasts more. Things for the dog girl just went from bad to worse.

"She jussst ran off on her own, I don't know why or where sssshe went. I'm sssure sssshe'sss fine." Her voice becoming more snakelike as she hissed a little with every word that had an "S" in it. She was carrying the strange fruit that had found and laid it on the ground. "What happened here?" Her slitted eyes looked over the camp.

(Don't really know what to write, sorry >.< )

"Like you, I'm sure, we were all attacked. What you four face, well those were blood clones of VIRUS' minion, a man named Shin. The real Shin was here fighting me. It seems VIRUS is very well awear we are here, and for whatever reason we're more important to him alive then dead." Garrie said taking the fruit from Nagi. "Thank you for bringing these back with you."

The fire cracked as the woods became darker. Beast howled in the distance but their howls were nothing like the wolves and cyote's of the real world. Trees reflected orange in the center of the camp while Garrie tended to the fruits. Another large chunk of wood was tossed onto the fire before he set the fruit a few feet from the flame. Inuyami's scream ran out over the cannopy of the forest, fallowed by the echoing grunts of the Walooga hogs.

Desperate to get away, Inuyami had run all the way back to the beach and dove under the water. She hid under the waves for as long as she could hold her breath and resurface. The angery boars had lost their sence of mission once the woman could no longer be seen and returned to their mud hole. Soaked, Inuyami walked onto the beach and noticed that she could smell the smoke of Garrie's fire. Dispite her self hate, it was time for her to return. The air was cold and by the time Inuyami had returned to camp, her lips were blue and she was chilled to the bone.

"I..." She started as she broke threw the trees, looking at the group with sad eyes. "I'm sorry for not returning sooner..."

Nagi wasn't sure what to make of the situation, so some bad dude just wants to screw around with them huh? Either that person was very bored and had nothing better to do, or was really just an evil loser wait that was the same thing wasn't it? When she heard Inu's voice she turned around to see the busty girl, she went over to her and wrapped her arms around her "Don't ever run off on me like that, do you know how worried I was? What would I do if you got eaten? You look all beaten up too come here," she brought her over to the fire and cuddled her.

"We're going to have to give you a bath~" she told her, happy that she came back. "Why did you leave me? if you run off again I'll chase you, even if I don't have legssss."

It struck Inuyami when Nagi told her how much she'd been concerned for her safety. Only her older brother had been concerned for her before now, it was strange to find that someone else truly cared for her. She melted into Nagi's warm arms. Nagi has obviously been around the fire for quite a while as she was cold blooded, or was she? Inuyami didn't linger on the thought, it was nice to be warming up. She rang some of the water out of her hair and sank into Nagi again.

"I... I'm sorry Nagi. It's just.." She looked down at the dirt and organized her thoughts. "I just felt like such a failure... I almost died... and you and my older brother were all I could think of. I failed you both." Inuyami bit her lower lip trying to fight back her tears.


((Sorry Happydeath, I forgot to answer you question regarding a third character. Yes, you may create a third.))

She smiled looking at her and nuzzled her, "I missed you so much.." she told her, "I want to get to know you better," she blushed deeply as she leaned against her sitting beside the fire with her. "You aren't a failure, I just wish I knew what happened. How am I supposed to protect such a very important friend?" She smiled and licked her cheek. "I don't want to rush into anything, because that ends bad, but I do like you." She told her, "I won't let anyone hurt you, including myself, if I do feel free to slap me." She smiled.

Like a shot to the head, Inuyami sat strait up at the feeling of Nagi's tongue on her cheek. Her face flushed with a beet red tone and her mind went blank. I don't want to rush into anything... But I do like you. Nagi's sweet voice echoed threw Inuyami's mind and evey negitive though she held inside her dissapeared.

"N.. Nagi." Inuyami looked into her eyes as she tried to make her mouth say the words she wanted to. "I've never fel... I mean... I hope we do get to know each other better. You've grown to be a good friend." FAIL! Why couldn't she just tell her? What was holding her back? She damned herself in her mind and had to look away, into the fire.

"I'm going to keep you close from now on," she told her She enjoyed the taste and scent of this girl it drove her so wild. "You never felt what?" She looked at her with a big grin, "I never actually had a girlfriend before, so I wouldn't know what to do...especially one with such a nice rack." She poked Inu's breasts. She was teasing her, but she was enjoying it She wrapped her long body around the two of them, "If you're tired you can rest against me, you must be..."

"I am a bit." Inuyami hadn't noticed how drained she felt from the event that had run threw the day. She yawned and leaned into Nagi, then turned her attention to the rest of the group and blushed. Feeling like she'd been ignoring them she decided to change topics, that and she wasn't really ready to discuss such things with the lovely snake woman, and not infront of so many people. "I'm sorry everyone for my behaviour. I won't be so wreckless."

Garrie looked at Inuyami and noded as a way to say don't worry about it. He had been more concerned in Tenshi's well being then what the girls had been talking about. The howls of the animals of the forest were moving around them now, some getting closer while other were leading off into the distance. With Tenshi's wounds, he was literally a sitting duck sleeping on the ground.

"Tenshi, when you feel well enough to move you may sleep in my shelter tonight. You'll be safe in the branches of the tree. There is enough room for two if you fear you may role out, you needn't fear. I will keep an eye out for Shin tonight, I won't be able to sleep in any mater." Garrie was happy to offer his bed to Tenshi and hoped he'd take it. Nagi and Yami would be fine sleeping by the fire, and Vixen had built a shelter before the attack. He was confident they'd be safe while he patrolled the woods. "Oh, before I go..."

Garrie pause and closed his eyes, a darkness covered his body and subsided back into the nothingness it had come from. The cat man was gone and there was now a woman standing where Garrie had been. She was two feet shorter then Garrie was and had more meat on her bones. Her eyes were miss-matched, one being the golden color Garrie's eyes had originally been the other was a brillient blue.

"I have a second form," the female started, revealing herself to indeed be Garrie. "You can call me Carrie in this form if it suits you. Shin doesn't know about this form... It'll keep me safe while I'm out tonight. I wanted to show you so that you didn't think I was a threat." Carrie smiled and gave the peace sign. It was as though not only the outside had changed, but the personality as well.




**Here's a fun fact:: Garrie stands 6'10", weighs 125 and does hand to hand combat, while Carrie stands 4'10", weights 150 lb and battle with a sword.**

Nagi smiled and wrapped her lower body around the two of them, holding the girl close to her, "I don't want to let you go right now~" She whispered to her. She eyed her and then her body, she was an amazing girl, Good night." She told her as she laid her head on her shoulder.

Listening to VIRUS' last information that Shin had to listen to so that he'd have to tell these newcomers about what to do. He gave a final nod before noticing his master had vanished behind the curtains; right next to his own throne. Right as soon as VIRUS had left the area, Shin had also vanished into the darkness once more with his shadow powers. He had to make sure if he was going to go back toward those newcomers; especially if they were all going to be together. He'd need more of his medications from his room; which was exactly where he was headed. Shin's room was also within VIRUS' large hideout, just in a different section of it was all. He quickly bolted through the hallways until he ended up stopping right in front of a wooden door that lead to his room. 'I must...g-get more..' he thought to himself before stepping into his cold dark room; making his way over toward his night stand which had a needle that was filled with some kind of black liquid and a couple of pills that helped his illness. He immediately grabbed as many of the pills as he could, slipping them into the small container on his jacket side; before stopping to look at the needle. Staying silent, Shin just stared at it for a little bit; biting his lip on wondering if he should use it. 'No..its n-not time..' he thought once more, only to turn around and leave the room; quickly vanishing into the shadows once more to make it toward where the group's campsite was.

While on the other hand, back with the group; Tenshi had listened to everything that had happened from Garrie explaining it to him. Supposedly, Vixen here had helped Tenshi come back to the camp and helped up this entire time. Taking a look at her for a moment, a worried frown spread across his face as he took a small sip of the tea that Garrie had made for Tenshi's wounds. "T-..Thank you...Vixen.." his own tone of voice sounding a bit saddened from remembering how he had been wounded; but as well as remembering the dream he had when he was unconscious. To him, Tenshi had thought of himself as being too weak and that he had to become stronger no matter what the cost maybe.
Being told right after that Garrie's shelter would be a good spot for Tenshi to rest while he tried to regain his energy and recover from his wounds. His own attention was slowly brought over toward him; a little smile appearing on his face. "Thank you Garrie..." was all that was heard before Tenshi's own eyes widened up in shock to see and hear that Garrie this entire time had another ability to shapeshift into a female version of himself. This was indeed unexpected, however he didn't bother to let it get to hm. When everyone would go to sleep, Tenshi had to make sure he left the camp unheard to go train. "So what...ar-are we going to do from here..?" he asked unaware the entire time he was laying like this; both of his black feathered wings had now been covered in mud from them laying restlessly on his sides. Having these new wings made it kind of difficult for him to remember; especially since he could barely even feel them on his back from how numb his body felt due to the pain from the wounds on his body.
