That's one ooglay monstah.

Katara had risked staying out later than she usually did, but in her eyes, it was well worth the reckless decision. She finally got a positive response from the brothers. It took almost a full month before they had warmed up to her, and with the end of the month coming up, she was running out of time finding a place to stay. Of course, that too contributed to why she had been out.

Apartment hunting, they called it. Those buildings were quite different from the igloos she was used to back home, or the caves, or the small houses provided them in the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation (the latter while they were on the run of course). On her way back to the Starter apartments, she stopped short at the sound of a squeal of fright, and then the aggressive growl of a monster.

"Oh... Spirits!" Katara sucked in a breath and sprinted down the street herself, heading towards the sound. The canteen at her side was uncapped with a flick of her thumb, her eyes scanning her surroundings. "Is anyone there?" She called out loud. "I'm coming to help

the oogliest

Vanille really, really wished she had brought her binding rod. Or that Sazh was there with her. He'd have known what to do. But it was just herself, and she'd gotten herself into this mess, so she would have to be the one to get out of it. Unless...

Was that a voice?

"I don't know where I am!" Vanille shouted in a rather panicked way, running along as fast as she could and hoping she was heading towards help, because she was beginning to feel out-of-breath. "Um, there's buildings--and some lovely curbs and things, and--ack! Get away, you ugly thing!"

This at the monster, which had caught up close enough to grab at her skirt.

Its feelings are probably hurt now :I

Poor Vanille. Katara was relieved to hear a response though, and one that sounded closer at that. She couldn't be that far off. Water slid out of the canteen and rippled across her arms, encasing both in a sort of sleeve, across her shoulders.

Buildings? Lovely curbs? If the situation wasn't so serious Katara would probably laugh. More importantly, just as she's passing an alley she catches sight of a girl dashing by, with a monster hot on her heels. There! That had to be them. Katara skidded and darted after them, bursting out the other end of the alley. Oh man was that creature ugly.

"HEY!" Katara shouted to get the beast's attention, whipping an arm out and sending a whip of water out to snap at the creatures' back. Pay attention to meeeeeeeeeeeeee. "Leave her alone, ugly!"

Well it shouldn't be so nasty :|

[yay_us]

Vanille almost tripped over one of said lovely curbs as she turned to look at the source of the voice, a girl with her arms gloved in rippling water in a very pretty way. Even better was seeing the water snap forward to whip across the monster's slimy face, sending it staggering back with a protesting moan.

"Yay!" Vanille cheered, pumping a fist in the air. "Get it!" The dark-haired girl looked pretty young, but then, Vanille had been fighting for her life on the plains of Gran Pulse at that age, so she knew age was no hinderance. And without a weapon of her own, she would take rescue in whatever form it came.

Brooke often was out at night since most people were terrified of the sight of him, but he had just finished a grand joke of playing dead for the last 3 weeks and had become incredibly bored. At first it was incredibly amusing, but after a while he was just doing the joke for the sake of the joke. So he found himself strolling around after dark looking to find a way to make his nonexistent heart race, when he heard the sound of footsteps running up ahead

[yay_us]

Vanille shrieked again as she colliding with some hard spindly figure, sending them both tumbling into a collection of trash cans. As bags of garbage spilled out among them, she frantically motioned for silence and kept where she was--as gross as it was to be lying in trash, it was a better alternative to being eaten by a slimy monster.

"Shhhhh! It'll hear us." Vanille grabbed the protruding hand and shoved it down, only afterwards thinking that it was rather...bony...and completely white. Some kind of medical condition? She didn't really want to think about it too hard.

[Hope you don't mind me finishing of our dreaded beastie >_>]

Brooke shook his head to clear his thoughts after being pushed back down into the garbage by a shushing female voice. Brooke however was a skeleton of principles and one of those principles were to help any lady in distress who could not protect themselves. Brooke stood up to his full height of 8'5 and pointed towards the oncoming monster with his cane. "Fear not dear mademoiselle, when it comes to the matter of monsters in the night, I Brooke the bard, am very suited to dealing with them

Not at all

[yay_us]

Yes, that absolutely was a skeleton. A rather dapper one, as far as these things could go. Ordinarily Vanille probably would have been scared out of her wits to meet a walking dead man, but this skeleton seemed like...a gentleman! Calling her dear lady and such as he handily finished off her monster. It wasn't the sort of name girls from Gran Pulse--l'Cie girls, for that matter--usually got called.

And in any case, even a skeleton was better than an ugly slime monster who wanted to eat you.

"Well!" Vanille bounced to her feet, brushing garbage off her skirt with a dramatic flourish. "That was very handy of you! You have excellent timing, mister...err..."
