((Yay! Another cat! x3))

Dusty let out a small shrug as Gavroche plopped down into the dirt. "Maybe," he muttered, scraping his dirty claws over the gravel. "But I don't think Teegan or Flak knew that we were hunting," he added. He didn't mention Risto, because he knew that the feline had seen him asking Micah to hunt with them. Doesn't he ever keep to his own business? Dusty wondered as he stifled. A faint snarl echoed from where the museum was, followed by a soft howl. Dusty snapped his attention back to the pup, hoping that he didn't hear anything. But it's possible he did. The museum isn't far away, and Gavroche has sharp hearing.

Gavroche lowered a brow at Dusty, tilting his head as the brute spoke. Suddenly a howl pierced his ear drums, making his ears immediately flick forward. "woah! Didja hear that!?" The pup shouted, springing to his feet. "I fink(think) the others might be in trouble!" Gav barked, glancing at the tall silhouette of a building where it had seemed the howls came from. Without hesitating, he took a few running strides towards it, quickly halting and wheeling around to face Dusty. "Well c'mon! We gotta check it out, don't we?"

Teegan let out a slight huff as she dropped herself to the ground, she lowered her head as she knew the group were in danger all because of her. The faes ears perked as the cat spoke as she jumped back up onto the railing looking down and seeing Flak "What's he doing here?" She snalred, not in aggression or ignorance but as she knew he had more chance of being killed than anyone else. She let out another huff as she watched him limping around, her ears slightly dropping. "Well you guys could escape, and I'll stay here and keep the beast distracted?" She questioned looking at the cat as he asked what she was going to do.



Micah padded around the building thinking of a plan "Ah!" She muttered "I'll lead them into the animal section of the museum and it'll be harder for them to find me" she smiled to herself as she slowly turned around and followed a small corridor seeing two mutants about to seperate as she let out a bark, then a snarl causing the beasts to charge after her. Her attention would turn behind her to make sure they were following. The shepherd white legs extended as she ran, then coming to a set of stairs and It almost looked like she was leaping up them. She came to the 2nd floor and spotted the other two mutants, but it didn't take much for them to loose focus and chase her.
She now had four of these beasts onto her and if she wanted to stay alive she would have to stay alert, be quick and quick thinking. The five bounded up another flight of stairs as the mutants paws thudded against the ground causing a slight vibration. She ran past the rooms peering in as she seen the animal section, turning around the corner with a skid she sprinted down. The mutants accidently running past, but then quickly chasing her again. They came into the room as she looked around, she spotted a wolf scene that she fitted into quite well. She let out a gasp and jumped in hiding at the back as she scented the mutants entering the room.


((Sorry on why phone)).

"What a fish brain!" Risto hissed, watching as Micah let out a bark. The two arguing mutants lifted their heads towards her, and then began to chase after her as the white fae darted away. The other two mutants accompanied their companions, as all four rushed after her at full speed. Doesn't look very fast to me, Risto silently reflected as he watched one of the mutants trail behind. He shot a glance at Teegan. "Well, there's no need to distract them; Micah is now. But since she's doing that, she's in danger now, and there'll be no telling whether she will survive or not." He meowed, his words spilling out. A slight tinge of anger mixed with his sentence, but he quickly stopped it. Sighing, he touched his tail-tip to Teegan's flank. "We might as well get out of here; there's no point in lingering around. We should also pick up Flak along the way." Risto added, then muttered, "if only the fish brained brute would stay behind." He stood at the top of the staircase, thrusting a quick glance at Teegan. "Well? Come on!" he urged, spinning around so quickly that he lost his footing. Thumping down the stairs, he tripped and whirled down, tail tumbling over whiskers. Once the stairs ended, he laid sprawled out at the end on the stairs, his tail fluffed out. Quickly scrambling up to his paws, he shook his pelt and gave his chest fur a couple of embarrassed licks, before scurrying down the rest of the stairs.

"No!" Dusty barked, immediately darting towards the pup's side, breathless. His mind twirled as he tried to think of something to say. "You can't go in there," he sputtered. "There's mutants in there, and we can't loose you. Even if you survived the attack, we don't know whether if you can survive this one," Dusty persisted. He wished that Gavroche had more sense in himself than to go flinging himself into a battle.

      Flak's attention rested on a hole on the side of the top floor. He leaped up onto a dumpster, landing easily despite his injuries which he now ignored. Just as he was about to hop onto a ledge that would allow him access to the second floor, the figure of Teegan became visible through a hole in the wall. The rumbling inside the building led Flak to realize Micah.had successfully attracted the mutants' attention. His eyes traced the narrow outside ledge closest to Teegan's location; a suitable exit. "Hey! Teegan!" Flak barked quietly enough to avoid attracting unwanted attention, but just loud enough for the shepherd to hear his voice. "Micah has the mutants distracted. You and the cat can get out through that hole in the wall, just stay on the ledge once you exit, then you can jump down to where I am from there." He explained quietly, hoping she'd be ableto hear.




     Gavroche wrinkled his nose, flattening his ears in protest. "Well if they're in there, we can't just leave 'em to die wifout our help!" He barked with a hint of a quiet, stubborn growl. "we've got to help 'em. 'An I'm going with or wifout you." The pup nodded, taking a defiant step forward.

Teegans ears perked as Risto spoke, her attention turning to the mutants who were chasing the right shepherd as she rolled her eyes at the one lagging behind. "Well she's a smart dog, she'll find a way to escape" Teegan replied as the cat slightly hissed "Hopefully" she then added with a shrug of her shoulder. The tom began to pad to the stairs as he spoke about getting out, as he told her to hurry. Dropping her paws from the railing she began to pad towards the stairs. Risto stumbled down the stairs after twirling around as she gasped "You ok?" She questioned concered.
A low voice caught the shepherds attention as she turned her head to see Flaks figure through a hole in the wall as she barked quuetly "Risto, here". Rubble gritted underneath her paws as she padded to the end her head poking out the hole, she noticed Flak standing on a dumpster. "Hey" she quietly barked the the black brute, her ears perked as he began to speak, she nodded in agreement to what he had to say. "You coming Risto?" She asked knowing the answer was more than likely yes. Teegan lowered her self to a sort of crouching position as she took in a deep breath her fluffy chest puffing out. The fae extended her legs and leapt towards the dumpster landing on it carefully, but it did let out a thud. She looked back up at the hole towards Risto "Come on" she smiled but trying to urge the cat to hurry.


Micah watched as the mutants crept through the isles her eyes paced between all four, her heart slightly raced as she knew one wrong move could put her in serious danger. From time to time the mutants would pass eachother and snap or shove eachother as she rolled her eyes. The strong scent of their damp fur lingered in the room as she slightly gagged, then stopping as she realized they would find her and more than likely kill her. Thought ran through her head as she scanned the room thinking of a plan, there was no way she would be good at hiding with her pelt. Her attention caught a small ash pit close to her she wondered. 'Maybe I could roll in there then my pelt will go sort of grey/black and it'll be harder for them to see me' she thought about this for a few minutes but then shaking her head. It would just take far to long to clean her pelt.
She spotted a small hole in the corner of the room as her eyes lit up, she could make a run for it and try and get through, a nod was acted by her head as she waited for the mutants to move a few isles down. Her chance was now and she carefully and silently got to her paws, a flash of grey passed her eye as she spotted a mutant "Damn!" She snarled jumping brow her position as she mutant barked, her head turning to see 3 mutants after her. She watched as one closed in closer on the hole and she realized she wasn't escaping that way, pushing her paws against the ground she skidded around a corner causing one of the mutants to charge into the hole then dropping to the ground with a thud.
She let out a giggle as she continued to run up the isle "One down three to go" she giggle. A thud hit her in the side of she let out a quiet yelp, the massive paw of a mutant swiped into her side, in anger she jumped to her paws snarling at the beast. Remembering what Flak said about fighting she let out a snarl then flicking ash into its eyes she ran as it stood rubbing its paw over its eye as she bared her teeth then turning back around. She let out a sigh as she ran looking behind her as the mutants had again grouped together, a much larger one snapping at the smaller two, she knew this would be the right time to get a new hiding place. She spotted a wolf exhibit as she grinned, she would fit in just right here. She leapt onto the display and found a place to lye, at the back once again, but laying on the ground near a sort of large rock that seemed to have a small hole in. She lay motionelessly as she began to thunk again, the mutants passing her the odd time.

Risto fluffed out his fur. "Of course I'm coming!" He growled, getting control of his balance. Unsheathing he claws, he clawed the rest of way down the steps, his tail aching from the fall. When he arrived at the hole, he noticed that Teegan and Flak were standing on a dumpster. That should be easy, Risto thought. When Teegan urged him again, Risto muttered, "I'm coming, I'm coming."

Crouching down, he focused his attention on the dumpster--and leaped. Just as he did, something grasped his tail and jerked him back, sending him skidding across the museum floor. A little dazed, he recovered just in time to dodge a blow from a mutant. "I thought there were only four!" he gasped, streaking off. He realized that this mutant wasn't that big, maybe a little taller than he was. He felt the mutant's teeth snap at his tail as he scampered down the slippery floor of the museum. Pain stabbed through his paw, and he let out a yowl as the mutant sank its teeth into his tail. Not bothering to check what had happened to his paw, he let his strides go bigger as he wove his way through the debris. When the dumpster was in sight, he didn't stop to leap again. Inside, he lunged for the dumpster, clawing at the side of it as the mutant clung on stubbornly to his tail.

Risto panicked as he was slowly dragged off of the dumpster, but he quickly yanked his tail away from the mutant's fangs. Gritting his teeth, he snarled at the mutant, clawing at its face until it yelped and fled. Sighing, he shook out his ruffled fur and glared at Teegan, then at Flak, before examining his wounds. Narrowing his eyes, he noticed that he had torn a claw from the museum floor, and when he flicked his tail forward, he spat angrily to find that the wound on his tail had reopened, and that the top part of his tail was gone.

Growling, he turned back to the two dogs. "Can we go now?" he meowed impatiently.

Xizon finally crawled out of her hiding spot in the broken building, hearing more noises coming from the museum - Especially around the corner. Her ears perked as she heard the yowl of a cat, a strange scrapping sound and the yelp of a creature. Her curiosity soon got the better of her and she silently padded round the corner, but immediately jerked herself back as she caught a glance at three figures on a dumpster - Two dogs and a cat, possibly? she thought. Confused and at the same time even more curious, she took another peek at the three.



Vicci's ears perked up. There were noises at some place, but to her it seemed like muffled sounds that were quite hard to hear. She once again lifted her head and took another sniff, before continuing until she exited the alleyway. Her tail was lowered now, and her movements were hesitant and slow. She flicked her ears once more before sitting down and leaning back on her haunches, thoughts flooding her mind as she simply sat there and stared at another simple, abandoned building that seemed to be leaning heavily, looking as if it was about to just fall over and possibly crush her.

Teegan smiled as Risto came to join the two, then gasping as he jumped and something jerked him back. She let out a snarl and began tp pace across the dumpster trying to find a way to get back across but the jump was to far and high for her to return. Her tail flicked in anger as she heard the cat cry, letting out yet another snarl. The cat came back into sight and lunged at the dumpster not thinking before he leapt. Risto gripped onto the dumbpster with his claws as the fae softly gripped the scruff of his neck and pulled him up, the matant seemed to be a lot smaller than the others and began curcling the dumpster. "You alrght?" She asked the tom then nodding as he asked if they could go.
She went to step down the hearing the snap of teeth clattering together as she looked down, the scruffy figure of a small mutant jumping up as she let out a snarl. Flicking her tail she jumped down from the dumpster and hit the ground with a thud. The two canined circling as she locked her view on its neck. The beast charged forward and Teegan jumped up on her hind legs as so did the mutant, as it attempted to jump. She grabbed its neck as the two tumbled into a wall "Jheez be quiet mutt, they'll hear is" she snapped at the beasts face then clawing into its stomach. She got to her paws and snarled at the mutant as it lowered and crouched closer to the wall, then she let out a quiet bark causing the mutant that was nearly the same size as her run out the museum.
She padded back over to the dumpster and looked up at the two figures standing above her as she let out a smile as she panted a little. She retrieved her tongue back into her muzzle "So we going or what?" She muttered walking a little closer to the corridor that lead to the exit, then turning and waiting for the two to join her.



Micahs ears shot up at the yowl of another animal, the mutants stopped and looked at eachother then heading towards to door. "Oh no" she muttered "Think quick, think quick!" She urged herself then coming up with an idea. She jumped from her position and over to the dinsosaur bones, she climbed up the stairs that lead to the rid cage of another medium sized dino. She let out a bark forcing the mutants to turn their heads, they let out a snarl and padded towards her. When the time was right she began to chew on the rope causing it to fall and landing on the mutant. She let out a small bark "Two down two to go" she smiled hurrying down the stairs and back into her hiding spot whilst the mutants searched for her once again.

[OreoHeroz]

Risto kept quiet as he leaped down from the dumpster and began to limp towards Teegan. The blood from the senseless mutant who had attacked Teegan was splattered on the wall, but Risto ignored it, following the German Shepherd out to the exit. He glanced back, wondering if Micah was alright. Of course she will be! Risto told himself silently as he barged past Teegan. ((Are they outside?)) Risto felt a hot breeze filter the air as it whipped by him. Dust clouded the area as the wind arose it. Coughing, Risto spat out some blood, before shaking his head and turned back to Flak, waiting for the brute to follow him.

"Should we stay here and wait for Micah?" Risto rasped to Teegan.
