*Sigh* Hate to double post but...

Chapter. 2 (continued): "Looser mokes breakfast..."
~~~~
~Gellion:
"Morning" I said, getting up to eat alongside Zanger.
"Good morning Gell" Zang snorted, waving his tail slowly.
Shaking my head, I took another mouthfull of oats..
~~~~
~Devis:
After a long, boring chat, Bell finally left. Arbus helped us get the things we needed and chatted with us for a while longer. Eventually, bored outtah my witts, I decided that it was time to go.
"Why dont we go visit the guys before we head back?" I asked.
By "guys", I meant Zang and Gell.
"Yeah, sure" Zell sighed tiredly.
"Hey" I grinned, giving him a feindly slug on the shoulder, "S'okay pall"
I could tell he was still a little embarassed for almost loosing his cool back the--!
"Hello.." I had just spotted Jen, one of the many fair damsels living in our village. I had had a crush on her since I'd met her. I suspected she liked me back--she just didn't want to look like an idiot for liking..erm, well..the village idiot. Zell sighed impatiently behind me- I paid no attention.
"The name of this handsome guy before you is Devis" I smiled, walking over to her.
"Buzz off Dev" She said coolly. Her feather shined exquisetly in the morning sun.
"Oooh, she likes me" I teased.
"Not in a million years twerp" She sounded so cute when she was annoyed with me.
"I like those odds" I grinned, reaching to put an arm around her should--
*WHAP!*
~~~~
~Zell:
Poor Dev. He was a bit of a sucker for ladies--especially Jen, who'd been less than thrilled about talking to him. She'd smacked him before he could so much a touch her. Before Devis could recover, Jen had left.
"reeal smooth Dev" I chuckled as he plodded heavily towards me, rubbing his blushing cheek.
"Zell, please.." he sighed, eyes half closed in humiliation. The look on his face made me feel bad for laughing.
"Sorry" I apologized, clapping him on the back.
Dev's usuall grin flashed back to his face instantly.
"Well then?" he said cheerfully, "To the stables! Mush!"
~~~~
~Devis:
Feeling better, I led the way to the elum stables. They wherent far. The stables inhabited the Northwestern corner of the village--just a little ways from the v.c. They where a sheltered, wooden row in the shape of an "L". Each stall cconained two elums. So, like their owners, Zang & Gell where roomies.
Zanger was drinking deeply from the water bin. Gell crunched on oats nearby. Seeing them made me forget about Jen.
~~~~
~Zell:
"Hey Stinky" Devis greeted his elum, entering the pen and patting him.
Dev was pretty much the only creature that Zang wouldn't kick.
"Ello Gell" I said as my copper backed freind covered my hand in slobber.
~~~~
~Gellion:
"ZELL!" I mooded happily, licking his hands.
I could tell he'd eaten lana fruit this morning. Zanger was talking to Devis nearby. I loved it when Zell came to see me..
~~~~
~Zell:
Dylan had been waiting for us. He was a handsome mud. Older than me by two years with a dark scar decorating his shoulder. Bigger than me and dev, he stood nearly 6 feet tall. His skin was the same color as mine--only deeper and more stiking against his long, dark feather.
Despite the apearance, Dylan had two totaly different personalities. I public, he was the honorable hero everyone believed him to be...and then there was the egotistical jerk he was when no one was looking (which he seemed to reserve mostly for Dev & I). To the tribe, Dylan was a respected future chief--I was just the village idiot's companion.
Dylan normally had Jayzeck, his minion/freind, close by. In this case, however, he was alone.
"Well now--what have we here?" The tall mud smirked as he aproached, "little Zell & numbskull Debis"
He seemed particularly happy about something--not a good sign for me n' Dev.
"Its Devis"
"What do you want?" I asked, petting Gellion.
"Oh--nothing, Zell" he said, his smirk getting a little bigger, "You see, Ged sentto look for you two goons--Says he wants to see you, Zell"
What was he talking abou---Uh-oh.. I suddenly remembered what Arbus had told me.
"What?" I swallowed hard..
"You heard me twit" Dylan said impatiantly, "Ge wants to see you"
"Emediatly" he added with another smug look.

~Warren:
The explosions where distant at first as I made my way down the rust choked hallway. In seconds they where deafeningly close behind me. I growled in pain as flames licked at my feline tail. I shifted partially back into green-skin to save it from the inferno. I ran as fast as my paw/feet could carry me.
Somtheing up ahead caught my attention as I ran for my life. A small, shivering green-skin lay cowering on the ground next to an uninhabited testing pool. Like a frightened child to its mother, she pressed herself as close to the wall as she could.
She didn't deserve to die like this--burned alive in a place she'd been trapped, enslaved, and tortured--just as I had been.
But there was nothing I could do for her. We'd both be killed if I stopped. I had to keep running...unless..I pushed her into the pool as I ran past her. I didn't have time to make sure whether she knew how to swim-but it was I could do. At least, I thought, It may not be as painfull to drown than to be burnt to a crisp.
Finally, I saw a door with the word "EXIT" witten above it...

((Thats better... Sorries for the confusion!))
