Right as Shin was continuing to move the shadow blade closer toward the cat-like female's face. He immediately came to a stop as his devilish grin faded as well, turning his attention toward the direction of the forest where he was originally planning on going. Shin was beginning to notice how there was someone making their way closer and closer toward his location. A small groan of annoyance escaped his lips as he glared right back over toward Carrie who he continued to hold in his tightened grip. "Looks like the little rescue team is arriving.." he spoke with his own tone of voice dark and menacing at this point due to all the energy he had stored up in his body now. "Its too bad..things were just getting fun..Hmph, oh well." He stated with a small shrug of his own shoulders before throwing her entire body toward the direction of where Inuyami was coming from. 'Lets see if they can catch!' he thought toward himself before vanishing into the shadows to make it back toward VIRUS' hideout. His orders were to warn the newcomers about what they had inside of them as well as telling them what they had to do. Not, kill them yet. Thanks to the amount of power VIRUS had given him, his speed was much more intense than ever before as he quickly bolted through the field and toward the mountains in no time.

Tenshi remained weakened on the floor as he heard from Inuyami that she'd go and if Vixen wanted, she could stay here with him. Turning his attention slowly over toward Vixen when he had heard how she'd pretty much stay with him here, a concerned yet shocked frown spread across his lips. "V-Vixen...w-what about them? I can t-take care of myself...they'll need your help." He whispered weakly, his tone sounding weaker as he tried to force himself to even say a word at this point. Tenshi had also began to feel the dark force that was around the area, whoever it was near the location where Carrie was had an intense amount of dark energy. However, soon enough he was starting to feel how the dark energy was slowly fading away. Was whoever that had that sort of power escaping, or was that person being defeated. Whatever the case was, feeling how the dark energy was fading quickly was a pretty good thing to know. "Vixen...d-do you think, we'll meet each other in reality..one day?" Tenshi asked, not realizing what he was saying until the next moment; causing his own cheeks to turn a light shade of red.

By this time, Carrie had passed out from the lack of oxigen. Her throat was bruised blue and her eyes had faded into darkeness and lifeless doll's eyes. When Shin tossed her into Inuyami's direction, she crashed threw branches and small trees. If she had been concious, she would of been in great pain.

Inuyami could hear the sound of snapping wood coming towards her. She didn't realise what it was until afte Carrie crashed into her. Panic and with her ears standing on end, Yami jumped up and began to examine Carrie. The dark aura had dissapeared so there was no point in leaving her alone, especially in this state.

"Carrie,,, wake up. CARRIE!" She screamed in fear that the cat had slipped into the nether-world. "TEEEENSHHIII, VIIIXEEEN, HEEELP!" Inuyami hollared into the thick of the forest hoping they would hear her. Clueless, Inuyami started to tend to Carrie's body. Covering the cat with leaves and setting her head on a rock for comfort, Inuyami didn't know whether to start CPR or start digging.

Vixen smiled and shook her head."you need me more.you're already having enough trouble, I wont leave you." She said.when the question of the real world came up, the smile faded from her face."I was wondering the same thing.I think...if we leave in the same place, maybe we'll appear in the same place.but if not, we should find eachother.we're both from japan, so there wont be a problem there.here..." she took a piece of bark and used her claws to carve something into it."this is my address and email.if we're separated, contact me." She said, handing him the bark.just then a cry sounded from the direction Inuyami had disappeared to."crap! Tenshi-San, we have to go! Can you make it?" She asked, worried.

(not sure what to do with Shin at the moment O.x soo I'll post for him on my next one. xD sawwi)

Just listening to how Vixen spoke about not leaving Tenshi's side since he seemed to already having enough trouble. A nervous smile had come across his face, indeed this feeling of having someone care after losing everything precious toward him was different. However, it wasn't exactly a bad feeling honestly it was hard to put into words of how it felt to be cared for once again. Although right after when Tenshi heard about how if all of the group came in the same area, that there was a chance they could also leave in the same area; he couldn't help but just shrug his shoulders on the thought. The two of them spoke Japanese, so at least that would've made it a bit easier to find her if they were not all coming out in the same place as well. Taking the bark that Vixen had craved her address into, right before he could even bother to take a look at it. A loud cry of what sounded like Inuyami caught his attention, she most likely found Carrie if she was calling out that loudly. "W-we need to go..!" he spoke with his tone of voice still strained from the pain, when Vixen had asked him if he could make it; Tenshi ended up biting down onto his lower lip as he placed both his hands flat onto the ground to be able to lift himself up to his own feet slowly. "C'mon..l-lets go." he explained right before he ended up spreading open his large black feathered wings. Tenshi's body may had been in lots of pain, but his wings were still just fine, this would be able to allow him to fly at least but not so much as walk or run. "Vixen...g-go on ahead. I-I'll catch up real quick. I promise."

Vixen hesitated, then nodded."be careful!" She said, then took off towards Inuyami.she got there quickly, and what she saw made her pull up short.she hurried to where Inuyami was tending to Carrie, and knelt down."is she breathing? Pulse, heartbeat, are they normal? Did she hit her head at all? Any cuts?" She asked quickly.she learned alot back home about medical care, in case she ever had a heart attack or other accident while she was alone.she started checking Carries vital signs while she waited for Inuyami to explain the situation.

"I don't know, she kinda came to me like this. I think she was facing off with that Shin guy... or maybe even VIRUS... She was sent flying threw the trees and I more or less caught her." Inuyami told Vixen everything she knew about the situation. "Her throat is all bruised, I think she was strangled."

By the time Tenshi had been able to get up toward his own feet as well as spreading out his wings. He turned his attention toward Vixen who had bolted off toward the direction where Inuyami called for help, a little smile played across his lips as he nodded to himself lightly. It was already painful enough to have to force his own legs to help himself stand up straight, looking toward the direction he had to go toward. Tenshi took in a deep breath before jumping forward as his wings began to flap themselves heavily to help him go further without having to run his way there. With the help of his black feathered wings, he was able to travel much quicker than he would on foot. So within about a minute or two, he was able to make it right toward where Inuyami and Vixen were taking care of Carrie. Landing down onto his two feet, Tenshi could see the amount of damage done to the trees around the area; no doubt she was thrown this way. As well as considering the bruises around her throat made it quite obvious that she being choked rather hard. Limping his way over toward Carrie's body, Tenshi knelt right down next toward her body right across from Vixen. Taking a look down toward her body, his panting still heavy from having to move his body around this much. "Vixen..check her pulse..see if its still going." He explained, moving out his right hand and opening it out so that th palm was straight forward. Slowly enough, what seemed like black lightning began to cover up his entire right hand. If she was truly unconscious at this state, he was thinking that there was a chance to shock her back to life; why the lightning on his palm was black he wasn't even sure. Tenshi had thought that the lightning was just like that due to his power over darkness by now.

Shin by this time was rushing through the mountain area as he was zipping through and around mountains within his shadow form. He was much faster than he normally was thanks to the power VIRUS had given him, it made him feel so free and as though nothing could stand up to him. Although he still knew who he served under and who his master was no matter what happened, so within a couple of minutes he had reached back toward VIRUS' hideout where he stood right by his master's throne. His own arms crossed behind his back as he awaited for VIRUS to return from whatever he was doing.

Vixen nodded."I know.I already checked.she's alive, but winded.she's breathing but her wind pipes have taken some damage.she should be fine for now, though we should get her awake just in case.we can't waste any time." She said as she went about getting Carrie into a more comfortable position."wake up, Carrie-Chan...wake up..."

( I kinda was thinking of having Nagi go home with Inu xD )

((Will re-post in the morning. That sounds like it may be interesting Alura.))

(I'll wait for you then x3 this rp could use some diversion from all the seriousness, oh and I'll post in the 1x1 when I think of a good reply~ )

Gasping suddenly, Carrie came back to conciousness. Swinging her claws at both Vixen and Inuyami, she was under the assumption that VIRUS and Shin where trying to disect her. Inuyami took a claw to the cheek but the blood the oozed out slowly blended into the red marking on her face.

"Carrie, please, you must calm down!" Inuyami said trying to restrain the paniced feline. Regaining herself, Carried calmed down and began his transformation back to her male form. Now Garrie again, he sat up and looked around him. He could see where he'd flown threw the trees and where Shin had been holding his wind-pipe.

"---gaaaack----" Garrie tried to talk but found it was far to painful, and that even if it wasn't, his voice seemed to be failing him. He began to write in the dirt with his claws. Thank you for saving my life. Shin has gotten more stronger and even more powerful, you three must get out of this place before your parasites awaken. I'll be fine, just please go now. I won't let you say other wise, NOW LEAVE!



((Garrie wasn't fighting a blood clone so he isn't parasited, so he won't be going to the real world with the rest of the group, especially since his memory is still erased.))

((Darn! That would have been interesting, too.is he ever going to find out who he really is?))
Vixen jumped back when Carrie started lashing out, and managed to avoid the cats claws.after a moment, Carrie calmed down and changed back into Garrie.he tried to speak but failed, so he wrote in the dirt.Vixen read what Garrie wrote, and looked at him for a second."alright.I don't like it, but alright." She said, and stood up."let's go, guys.we need to hurry.the arrow was pointing this way." She said, turning in the direction they were supposed to go.

((yes but I haven't decided when yet! lol I'm waiting on Alura's post))

(I don't even know what's going on x.x where are they now? )

((They're in the forest still but about to head towards the exit to the real world.))

(The same area or different? sorry I haven't been paying attention xcx )

((Right outside of Garrie's camp))

Being told that Carrie was actually still alive and that Vixen had already checked for her pulse, Tenshi nodded lightly. At least this meant that she was still alive, that was good to know rather than not knowing at all. Slowly enough, the lightning that had surrounded around his palm began to vanish, as Tenshi thought that using such a technique when they were already sure she was alive would be rather dangerous. The last thing he was expecting right after was when Carrie had sat up only to flail her claws around, nearly cutting Inuyami and Vixen's face. Noticing that, he ended up gasping sharply to the point that he nearly fell backwards onto the floor as well. Luckily enough, he was able to catch himself before losing complete balance. "Woah! W-what the hell!?" he exclaimed, only to see Carrie slowly begin calming down before shifting into her original male form; Garrie. It seemed as though he wasn't really able to talk however, rather reading what he had written in the dirt; it seemed almost as though Garrie truly meant what he was writing about the three of them really needed to leave this place. A bit of worrisome spread across Tenshi's face as he stared over at Garrie for a moment. He had said that he would be fine, but his own thoughts kept thinking that wasn't exactly true. Thankfully enough, with the dark energy surging through Tenshi's body; it was going to allow him to move a bit, at least until they would be able to reach the exit of this world. It took some time, but Tenshi finally nodded to what Garrie had said. "F-fine. B-but we will be back! and...and we will defeat VIRUS!" he exclaimed once more, having much confidence in his own voice. Garrie had become a friend of theirs and with seeing Tenshi's own family and friends within his memories once more, having them tell him that he should form new bonds; he wasn't about to lose another friend so soon. Right after, hearing Vixen speak that they should probably get going toward the direction the arrow had been pointing earlier; Tenshi stared off at the direction they needed to go. Who knew what could've been waiting for them on the road ahead of them. He was truly nervous about going, but he knew he had to or else those parasites would hatch and that would truly mean a game over for his whole life.

((I'll wait for alura.))

(It may be a while >.< I don't have any ideas for this rp at the moment..)

Inuyami looked around at the faces. Tenshi, Vixen, Nagi; and then in the backwards order and then down to Garrie. She knew that they had to listen to what Garrie had told them but in the time they'd been here, she had kind of grown attached to the cat man... er woman.... or whatever.

"Alright, Nagi do you want me to carry you? We'll be able to get you there a lot quicker." Inuyami said turning to Nagi and forcing a smile of optimism. "You can hold on to my shoulders, kind of like a piggy back, and warp your lower half around my waist."

Nagi had been listening to the conversation all the while, she wasn't entirely sure what to make of everything just yet. As long as she got to return home all was well. She was getting a bit tired of not being able to see her lovely long legs. It was true that she wasn't very fast with her snake body maybe if she got accustomed to it she'd be more efficient with it. When she heard Inu talking about carrying her she blushed lightly. "SSSure..." she said timidly and wrapped her self around her.

Once Inuyami and Nagi were all set, Vixen took one more glance around, nodded at Garrie, and started walking in the direction the arrow in the sky had been pointing."we'll run, as fast as we can.with Tenshi-San flying and our speed running, we should get where we need to go pretty quickly." She said.with that, she took off running, a blur amongst the trees.

((I'll update our map to show where the portal is before I post again.))
