This was extreme, like, way extreme, even for a bunch of psycho scientists. I mean, what about me escaping would worry them so much that they had to release this many robots? When I looked out of the mouth of the cave, there were still spots floating by. Some of them were turning, moving in circles, searching. I moved back in, deciding not being seen was the best move for the situation. Near the back of the cave, the girl who had yet to tell me her name, or simply didn't know it, looked a little restless. She sent a look in my direction, then continued looking at a random shadow. I wondered what kind of heck was going on back at the labs.

"Get guards at every window! Block off all the exits! Code 726! Two escapes!" A completely flustered and overall pissed off scientist yelled.

The cliche red light started blinking, bathing everything in an eerie color. The large, black streaked wolf sped by shocked scientists, eight eyes taking in the entire scene. He was forced to stop when a large man stepped into his way, a gun in one hand and a large, coiled net in the other. His claws turned a purplish pink color as he growled, then he lunged at him. The man barely had time to open his mouth before he was reduced to a pile of something gross.

After getting yet another running start, he shifted back to his human form. An olive skinned boy with messy, curly, gray-silver hair that was ear-length, and green eyes. He was about 4 feet 5 inches, and had a tattoo on each shoulder. Soon, he met up with a wall, but didn't slow. Instead, he made a gun-like pose with his hand and shot out a portal which let him through the wall without any hindrance, though it did tire him out. His name was Jack, and he was only twelve.

The labs were getting more and more scum-like as the years passed. He found that outside was simply woodland, and, once he was far enough in, he rested against a large evergreen. But before he forgot, he turned, then activated a button hidden on his person. The collections of buildings each exploded at times only milliseconds apart. Only then could he let out a genuine sigh of relief. Even cruel scientists had the smarts to let the experiments go when there was an alert that serious. But knowing that, they probably had some way to keep them in one general area...

A little distance away to the Northwest, a girl with black hair that sported blond and red streaks and eyes filled with a sort of curiosity looked in the direction of the multiple dark clouds of smoke. Hey gray cat ears twitched slightly. She stood and put her hands on her hips.

"What's going on there..?" She wandered aloud, then crossed her arms over her -spectacularly large, in her opinion-chest. Her wings snapped open, large, dark brown, and black tipped, and she jumped with enough force to keep her off of the ground and fly upwards. Just behind the clouds, thousands of black dots were swarming. That was definitely not a good sign, not at all.

"Uh oh..."

She swooped back into the cover of the woods, deciding to maneuver through the cover of the trees if she didn't want to be seen by the ever nearing threat. When she was in a group of larger trees, she landed, then looked back up. There were even more than she had seen before. What in the world was going on here? What were those? Bees, birds, or...Her ears twitched again, not only could she hear someone, but she could smell them as well. They smelled like...a science lab?

The girl, by the name of Riley, followed her senses until she came across what the scent was. A boy that looked younger than her, holding himself up against the tree and looking towards where the large smoke clouds were coming from.

"Uh...hello?"

Jack turned to the voice quickly, hoping they hadn't found him after all of that. But when he saw that it was just a girl, he let himself relax. There was no response.

"Um..." Riley tucked her wings close. "Do you know what that's all about?" She pointed to the smoke.

"...Yeah. I blew it up."

"You-You blew it up?"

"..." Jack nodded.

"That is so...awesome!"

"I suppose." He peered back to the smoke, then to Riley. "Did you escape from there too? Are there any others with you?"

"Huh? Oh, nope. I was just...wandering." Riley then took the time to examine the area. "You escaped from there, huh? No wonder you have such a weird scent. And...and those things up there." The non-stop buzzing of the black spots in the sky were beginning to get on her nerves. Jack took a moment to absorb their appearance.

"Androids, Bee Androids. From the place I just blew up." Jack began to run off, planning to leave Riley on her own since she was just a 'wanderer'. But she snapped her wings back out and began to follow.

"Wait! Where are you going? We could work together."

"Work together? How so?"

"Well, we could start by finding a safe place."

Jack stopped, then looked to Riley who mirrored the action.

"...Alright, let's find someplace safe."


Introducing...Riley and Jack! On to the next chapter! (really tired because it's 11:54) ^_^
