    [justify]Lorden was silent after that, stopping shortly at the wooded forest which stood as a sign that the city had ended. By then the stores had completely gone, and what houses there were, were scattered and a good distance away from each other. As Lorden stepped into the thick undergrowth. For some reason he began to feel uneasy, and he was sure that it wasn't the forest that was causing it. His mind would always circulate back to the howl that Vodka had let loose, and how it could have alerted other dogs besides Hades. He tried to shake it out of his mind and try to look forward with what came ahead.


    Vodka was still trailing in the back, trying to figure out if she should start a conversation with Crow. She didn't know all that much about him, only that he was Raven's sister, so she was genuinely curious. And Vodka needed to get Hades off her mind. I wonder if he's coming.. she pondered, but then scolded herself for thinking about him. Vodka's muzzle turned to Crow, and she sped up her pace so that she was beside him. "So, you two met back up by the abandoned house, correct?" She asked, the 'two' meaning Raven and him.[/justify]

So far, nothing had reached his cropped ears, but he did swear he heard the sound of a dog walking closer, then stopping abruptly. His eyes quickly scanned the area for a new face, but he didn't see anything. Or, more appropriately, anyone. [/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

    [justify]Lorden twitched his tail, deciding to listen in on the conversation, for it proved to be interesting as he sprung back into a run that held little jumps now and then.



    "Oh, well isn't that luck." She chortled, also beginning to run. "May I ask how you two got seperated in the first place?" She inquired, but was thoughtful not to cross the line that seperated Okay and Personal.[/justify]

It was strange hearing another dog talk, seeing as it had been days, almost weeks since he last heard someone speak actual words. The growling and snarling that the Biters would let loose hardly sounded canine-like, let alone sane. "Of course I do. It's Lorden. But you can call me Lord, if you want." The male replied smoothly, but the last part had a hint of tease woven into it, even though the brute had not wished for it, for it just slipped out. Lorden's dark coppery eyes trailed after the stranger's--or Bellamy's-, also taking a glance to where the clattering had sounded. His nose was not as keen as the stranger's but he guessed that whatever made the sound was now watching them. And the way Bellamy looked over to the spot made Lorden assume it was a canine, for if it was a Biter, the rank smell would usually make some rigid or annoyed. Bellamy though could have been different, but Lorden didn't dwell into that as he gave another glance to the spot he had heard the clatter.
    "Do we have company?" He asked Bellamy, but his head was turned to the spot he had glanced at. [/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

    They already passed that. Sorry if I wasn't clear. =O


    "Yes," She replied back to Hades, "The way me and my brother had come into the city. West. After that, we change our route to North." She quoted, running a little faster. Her eyes then locked on the old house infront of them, the abandoned house that the other dogs were still at. Her pace slowed as she kept her distance from it, and slowly slinked by. Once she was away from the house, she sped up again.


    Lorden's running.




    Vodka nodded understandingly. "Oh, that's quite alright. It's none of my business anyways. How about what you did while she was ah..called away. What did you do then?" She was hoping this question she could get an answer to, but was still hoping she wasn't prodding too much.

    He was currently on the other side the block, a few steps from fully seeing what was behind the corner. And when he took those few steps, he began to curse to the gods under his breath. Yep. Another living, breathing dog. Even a female at that. He raised from his slinking position, but kept his head low and cropped ears erect, eyes ready to follow what movements the new dog might make. "Well Hello, Milady." He grumbled slightly. Even though he wasn't the happiest camper at the moment, he made sure to always remember his manners. [/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

Lorden said sardonically under his breath, stepping onto the road and leisurely trotting over, stopping a few feet behind Bellamy. He took the silent time to look over the stranger, looking to see any characteristics of one being wounded. He didn't seem to find any, but would probably later for he had not done an intensive look over. He did though notice she was skinny. That seemed to draw out self-conscious thoughts, and he wondered slightly if his own bones where showing. He never took notice in such things, for he was more busy in looking for his sister than himself. But he guessed he didn't look bad, since for the last few days he had had good pickings, living off a restauraunt garbage can that had filled the holes of hunger for the time being. "Your name?" Lorden inquired, not really interested, but intent on small talk to fill the quiet atmosphere.[/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

    Lorden's a'runin.



    Vodka makes a 'mhm' sound as she listens intently, quite interested in the two sibling's past. "Hey, maybe if we ever come back we can go see how the puppies are." Vodka insisted quite happily. She was fond of pups, with them bounding around with endless energy made Vodka want to squeal. "Bet their cute little things.." She murmured, smiling inwardly. "How long ago was that?"

From the way her claws where killing the asphalt beneath her, he assumed he was getting under the dogs --'scuse me, Dakota's-- skin.
    "My name? It's Lorden. You can call me Lord if you want." He quoted, and as he had done with Bellamy, tease was woven into the last few words, this time intentional. Even though he knew Bellamy's name, he let the dog speak it for himself. [/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

He was guessing that was the safe house. Really, he wasn't sure if he wanted company. With his eyes trailing to his rooftop, he pondered if it was worth following the dog, wondering if Bellamy had something up his sleeve, because Lorden was doubting that the dog would let them go back into the city with the knowledge of his safe house. Was it a trap? Was he a..cannibal?
    Those thoughts set a frown upon Lorden's calculating face as he thought. He doesn't look like those kind of dogs. Besides, he probably would have tried to get me into his safe house first before looking for Dakota. What's he planning? Or can he just be a stupid, but nice mutt? I'd think dogs would be more occupied looking after themselves than others. Or is he one of those dogs that live in small groups?'
    While Lorden's mind was trying to process all his ideas, his face changed slightly to match what he was thinking. When he wondered if Bellamy was a cannibal, his eyes narrowed. Or when he wondered if Bellamy had more dogs hiding somewhere, he turned to survey his surroundings.


    Finally, the male sighed. The thoughts that plagued his mind was causing him a slight headache, so the dog decided to just see what happens. "Yeah, okay." He finally answered, his gaze on Bellamy.[/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

Lorden muttered, looking at Bellamy intently. As the light in the sky began to darken and the features of the land before him slowly dimmed, Lorden's eyes alterd so he could see in the dim world. Though he wasn't the best at picking up scents, his eyes and ears were by far his best qualities; even though his ears were cropped.
    He wondered many times in his life how good his hearing would be if his owner never cut'em, but he didn't resent the man for it. Besides, he kinda liked having such ears. He wondered briefly how his sister would look in cropped ears, and the thought of that seemed to bring up memories of his cheerful sibling. Sadness took over the male's face, thoughts of him never seeing his sister again threatening to destroy his happy memories.
    The male made a 'Tch' sound and began to pad away from the two dogs. "I'll catch up to you later." He affirmed, trotting into the city. Right now he wanted to be alone, knowing it could easily mean the last they see of him. Or, unless, he became a biter and went after them. His melancholic state broke slightly as he delved into the wonders of the infected animals. Do they remember their past lives? He thought not, since they didn't seem to try to bite someone in particular. Does the infection cause them to lose body parts? That would explain the missing eyes and loss of ears he had seen, but they could have easily lost that in their former life. Is the infection similar to that other disease(rabies)? That would explain their need to bite someone. Maybe the infection could be related to that somehow...hm. While he was pondering in his own little world, he seemed to have attracted an actual Biter. He was unaware of it making its way to him until he heard it growl lowly. Lorden was able to see its form perfectly, but not its characteristics, which he was disappointed it. The Biter, on the other hand, didn't seem to see the male that good, since it was making its way to him slowly, squinting with its one eye. The other was hanging loosely from its socket. Lorden tensed up, for he hadn't fought a Biter since he got seperated from his sister. But, the creature could be a good vent for all the male's pent up anger. Circling the Biter,--who just turned with him-- he wondered how to kill it without getting bitten.
    The Biter though, didn't seem to have any courtesy, for after a few seconds of turning along with Lorden, he let loose another low growl and charged toward him. Lorden made a sound of annoyance as he shrunk to the ground and rolled away, then jumping up and to the male without a second inbetween. He was grateful it was his size--even a little smaller, for it proved to be quite an easy task to ram the beast onto his back, then, having a paw on the creatures chin, making its maw immobile, the brute tore at its exposed throat, disgusted by the blood the seeped into his mouth.
    When the body of the distorted animal ended its last convulse of pain, Lorden was up and beginning to take leave, for the smell of blood, even as rotten as that, would most likely attract more Biters. Spitting the last few droplets of the disgusting blood out of his mouth he decided he might as well delve farther into the city.


    Though he began to doubt his decision to head deeper into the city when it became even darker, the night slowly closing in. Just when he was about to turn around, the faint smell of blood caught the male's attention. Unlike the rotting smell of the Biters, this...this smelt somewhat alive, like it came from a living animal. The tantalizing thought of it being a wounded animal pushed him forward, even though knowing it could have easily been a Biter, eating a living dog.
    With a fast lope he followed the growing smell of blood, finally slowing when he glimpsed the form of something against a building. He immediately felt the instinct to turn around, but the scent of blood was coming from that figure. Besides, he thought, if it is a Biter I can probably kill it. It looks like it's smaller than me. My sister's smaller than me..could, could it be?
    Deciding to take the risk with the hopeful thought of his sister, he loped toward the figure, making sure his claws didn't connect with the pavement.
    He stopped a few meters away, tensing up as he leaned his head outwards towards the shape, deciding to let it react first, for he didn't want to speak unless he was sure it wasn't a biter.

The dog wasn't a Biter, yet neither was it his sister. "I can see that now." He replied sarcastically, ears back as he inspected the wound, not moving any closer. He was tempted to walk away, seeing as the female(he was guessing it was, seeing as her voice seemed feminine) didn't have any use to him. She wasn't a Biter, nor food for him, and thus he didn't really need to help her out. But somehow he found himself beginning to talk. "Your name, lass?"
    He could though take her back to Bellamy and Dakota. The way Bellamy acted around him and Dakota suggested to Lorden that the dog wants company; or he wouldn't mind. But then Lorden sweeped his gaze over the female again. The way the canine laid down and the ribs sticking out of her sides, he guessed she was malnourished. She probably couldn't walk that far.
    Lorden was beginning to wonder if he could carry her, but then blinked. He was thinking this through way too much. He didn't even know if the dog was friendly enough, let alone willing to come with him. Sighing through his nose, he waited for her answer.[/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

Affirming quietly, letting his body slouch in the sitting posture. Letting a few quiet minutes fill the air, he spoke once again.
    "I would love to inquire how you got such a bad wound, but I don't want to sit out in the open for too long. Besides, I'm-a" A yawn broke his sentence, his teeth displayed to the whole world in those few short seconds. "-getting tired."

He guessed the going would be slow with her limping, so the male did slow a tad down in consideration, his gaze never turning to her and neither his mouth moving to create small talk. At the moment he was too occupied looking around at his surroundings, staring down alley ways and staring up at towering buildings for any signs that a Biter might be lurking in the dark. He then wondered what he'd do if a whole pack came after them. Could he really leave his new acquaintent behind? That was when he turned to look at the fae. What did she call herself? Pip. Hm. His gaze turned away from her and back to the road ahead of him. [/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

Lorden replied, jumping slightly at the tone of the dog's voice, but his next sentence sounded as if he wasn't fazed by her tone. "Mm, not that far. Hey, have you seen any other dog around here? Preferably small..the dog's about your height range." He ventured, wondering if luck would give him the gift of knowing his sister is at least somewhere around here, though felt a bit bad for not giving Pip a specific answer. But it was partly true. Up ahead he could see the corpse of the Biter he had killed and the figure above it. Wait. The figure...
    The male suddenly stopped. "Pip. Don't make a sound..I see a Biter.." He whispered, backing up a little before slinking off to the far end of the road, farthest from the crazed animal who was gorging itself on the Biter Lorden had killed earlier. Lorden was hoping that maybe he and Pip could maybe squeeze by, but the probability of that happening without it seeing them was low.[/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

    "Oh, that's quite a long time." Vodka murmured, following his gaze to look at the path ahead. She wasn't sure if she should continue talking to the dog, or let the conversation end there. "So, ah, did she change? Was Raven different when she returned?" But Vodka didn't want to end the interesting conversation.

Slowly shifting so he a few inches to being pressed up agains the wall, Lorden looked around the street for alleyways that might lead to a different road. "I don't know...the thing's pretty big." He answered as silently as his voice could go. The male's gaze drifted onto his side of the road, where his eyes landed on a little alleyway up ahead. Almost opposite of the foul beast. His head turned cautiously to the rout behind them, but it didn't turn for awhile. Besides, the two were close his little apartment safezone; and to Dakota and Bellamy. "There seems to be an alleyway up ahead. If it doesn't lead to the next road we'll make a run for it." He whispered to her, "If somehow I get held up keep going. There are two dogs up ahead that will most likely help you." He added, deciding it better not to add what he'll do if she got held back. Albiet he still didn't know the answer to that.
    Not waiting for the female's reply, the male backed up a little so he was beside Pip, partly concealing her in his large form. Hopefully the Biter would smell him before the bloodied wound of his aqquaintent, and if luck had graced him once again, not notice Pip.
    Turning to Pip, he gave her a determined look before slinking forward. [/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost][/fancypost]

    "Hm." She replied, looking thoughtfully at his sister. Deciding that she had bothered the male enough, she looked at him briefly and smiled. "Hey, do you want to be my friend? You're pretty nice."
    Vodka was oblivious to how weird that sounded, as she awaited his answer, a little bounce revealing itself as she ran.

    Vodka gave another smile when he heard his answer, now speeding up to be on the other side of Lorden.


    "The forest will have to break sooner or later. Once we're out and into the clearing that follows we can rest. Then we'll turn North into another city. After that well, there is no 'farther' or 'plan'. We'll be free to do anything we please." He answered quite wistfully.

The closer he came to the entrance of the alleyway, the closer he got to the wretched canine, who didn't seem to have noticed them yet, fot it was munching away, cracking the bones of the other deceased being in its slavering jaws.
    Besides almost tripping on a rock that was conveniently placed right infront of his paws, he had sucessfully made it to the entrance of the alleyway, but when he peeked inside, his confidence seemed to hit rock bottom. The alleyway led to the next road over, gratefully, but straight in the middle stood a fance. A Chain link fence. He'd had his own experience with them, and he knew just how loud they could be. The male cursed as silently as he could, slinking swiftly into the alleyway he padded up to the fence, though looked to see if Pip was still beside him, then turning partially back to the fence. "These things make the loudest d*mn racket even if you nudge it." He explained, now staring at her wound. "We'll have to make a run for it. Unless you know how to climb a fence."
