[Saroko]

Three weeks ago:

The rainforest's quiet night was ruined by the soft crunching of a four legged creature and the buzzing of some kind of insect.  Two figures walked silently side by side, illuminated solely by the light of the moon.  Neither said a word, not even when they found an unmoving body lying sprawled on the forest floor.  Both figures just stood, staring and considering, until the largest of the two nosed it.  The body twitched at the figures touch, and the four leg scooped it onto her back.

Present day:

Sal's head throbbed mercilessly.  Gritting his teeth in pain, he awoke in a completely unfamiliar place.  Suprised, the Meji slowly got up, only to be rewarded with a violent throb in his head.  Wincing, he placed a hand on the sore spot and was met with gauze and bandages.

"Don't touch that," said a female voice.  "It took hours to change those."

Sal looked in the direction of the voice.  It belonged to a female Imeut, sitting on a very fine looking silk rug.  Instead of wearing the ornate headdress, she had long, stringy black hair.  Her eyes were sharp as an arrow head that seemed to follow his every movement.  One of her alert ears was a little flopped.  Buzzing beside an ornate paw, was a large beetle with wing caps that compared to quartz.

He chanced a look around.  He was within somekind of wooden dwelling and, judging from the trees out a window, was in the middle of the Tengel Rainforest.

"Well?" said the Imeut.  "Aren't you going to say anything sensible?"

Venom Hydrolisk

Name: Creature-X (nicknamed Venom)

A venom hydrolisk that was a few sizes too big stumbled through the forest. He had many a wound, including bullet holes and sword marks. He had just slaughtered a hundred people, the people that had created him. He wanted to have no more to do with it, no more labs, no more Creature-X, and no more painful experiments. He reached a log cabin, and managed one weak knock on the door before collapsing.

((Hope thats ok.))

[Saroko]

(That's ok)

The Imeut looked towards the door as she heard the knock.  "Hmph.  Can't seem to get a bit of piece."  Her scarab flew towards the door and twisted the knob, to Sal's amazement.

Venom looked up, his eyes drooping as he was starting to go unconscious from blood loss. "Ple-ease, hel-lp." He asked weakly. He then passed out, fading into unconsciousness.

Sal nearly jumped out of his bed when he saw the hydrolisk fall but he ended up sharing the same fate.  He didn't feel himself hit the ground as a flood of pain rippled across his head and through the rest of his body.  Trembling, he could just barely hear the Imuet speak.

"Hmph.  Two injured at my doorstep within a span of three weeks.  Do I honestly look like a Medacai nurse?"  she said in disgust as she stepped towards the reptile.  Brushing the scarab away, she bent down to grab the wounded creature by the scruff with her teeth.

((Remember he is a few sizes large than normal, not easy to pick him up. Also, he heals fast.))

Venom lay limp as he was dragged, not feeling it. He was somehow in a state of semi-consciousness, as he could still sense what was happening in an odd way. He could make out not sight, smell, hearing, or even touch. He thought it had something to do with one of the experiments.

(Uh, you need three full sentences for it to count as a proper post.)

[Draco]

((Fixed it.))

[Saroko]

(*thumbs up*  Sweet!)

The Imuet strained and mananged to drag the hydrolisk half way across the floor before dropping him.  The scarab closed the door shut behind them, then flew to a cabinet filled with green and brown plants.  Sal managed to stand up by leaning on the side of the bed.

"Will he be all right?" he asked.

"He'll be fine," the canine said and dropped Venom on the floor.  The scarab flew over carrying a bundle of long grass and began cleaning the hydrolisk's wounds with them.

Venom mumbled a bit, on the edge of consciousness. "Thanks." Was the only word distinguishable. The imuet seemed an odd one to take in a stranger, especially one riddled with bullets.

[Saroko]

The Imuet sniffed slightly.  "Don't thank me.  Just consider yourself lucky to even find me.  Now shut up and be still for Coin."  Coin, the scarab Sal guessed, was busy picking at one of the wounds.  The Imuet spread the wound wide with a paw to reveal a bullet imbedded in the flesh.  "So what about you, hare?  Do you have a name?  Or has was that blow to the head given you amnesia?"

Sal blinked and managed to seat himself back on his bed.  "I'm Salvador.  Sal for short.  Who are you?"

"Adjo," she said as she picked at the bullet.  When she managed to stretch the wound out a little, Coin grabbed it in his jaws and pull it out.

"I'm Venom." the oversized hydrolisk said. He was really just glad that she had not drilled hi on where the wounds came from, for such wounds were certainly not common. Or so he though, he had never really been out of his sensory tube for this long before.

[Saroko]

Adjo placed a firm paw on Venom's snout.  "No yap from the patient."

"Isn't 'Adjo' a male name?" asked Sal, racking his brains.

"And no lip from you either.  That wound wasn't dug deep enough to destroy some brain cells."

Venom growled a little, but quickly stopped. You couldn't really blame him, he had never really interacted with others much, besides the occasional witty remark towards the scientists. Venom's sharp eyes scanned the room curiously, though he remained perfectly still.

[Saroko]

Sal sat and watched as Adjo and Coin work more on the hydrolisk.  He decided to simply content himself with his own dilemna: the person who hurt him in the first place.  He remembered that it had been in Jawan and that there were others who had tried to help him, but from their it was all a blur.

He tried to move his head.  He could see the ruined remains of his bowler hat sitting on a table.  Draped over a chair was the black cape he had worn on that day.  Leaning next to it was his staff.

"That stick of yours has been vibrating since I brought you here," said Adjo.  She was busy bandaging Venom's head.
