The Hidden Door-A Role Play (AKA The Most Dangerous Coffee Shop II)

"What are we even waiting for?" Kylan asked, looking down at the tiny man. "I mean, we sure ain't doin' anything at that platform. We're just as liable to die there as here, the only difference is we're actually doing something-- And working to save some kids." He argued calmly, not exactly sure why he was even bothering.

Lilith slinked up to his side, brow twitching from time to time due to an itch that she was unable to scratch because of the slightly annoying fact that both her hands were full. "Kylan and Fox-boy are right. We should be doing something, and look for those kids seems the right thing."

“Well I’m coming” Fred sniffed indignantly trying to be seen from behind some taller kids in the crowd. “I will go too” Aria said appearing in front of the group.

Fred glanced around scanning the faces of the group for Kipp. He was dying to tell him what recent breakthroughs he’d had with his science

Take completely ignored the girls words, giving his full attention towards Blair. He took both of her hands in his to pull her out of her defensive girlfriend mode. “Blair, we need to find your niece, what does she look like?” he asked.

It was hard not to launch herself at Aella when the ginger started signing something along the lines of 'jealous, jealous girlfriend', but Take's grasp brought Blair to her senses, and she looked up at him. "My...niece?" It took her tired brain a moment to catch up, before she blinked rapidly, realizing what he meant. "Yes, my niece! She's got dark blonde hair and like...green and blue eyes. Looks a lot like Cynthia– that's not going to help because you don't know who Cynthia is– and she's like this tall." She spoke rapidly, barely taking a breath before she brought a hand up to around her hip, measuring the height of her niece.

Cam had no idea what intelligible reply was adequate in that situation, so she released a porcine squeal, squeezing tightly before jumping away.
”So what happened in your life while I was gone?”

”Thank you,” Kyle said, using his limited supplies to patch up the salamanders’ chest to the best of his ability. Which were actually quite good.
”I really wish I had some sutures,” he muttered, echoing his regrets from the last time he had to patch up an impromptu injury. ”I really should keep them on me.”





Hearing the commencement of the search for missing children, Cam turned away from Ellie, but not without a quick salute. ”To be continued,” she said, following Kylan, Nat, and Colby into the woods.
”I’m supposed to find somebody too,” she explained.

”Wait! Guys!” Kyle waved his hand as half a dozen teens went skipping into the forest. ”You can’t go galavanting off like that! We need to stay together!”
His voice barely carried to the first tree.
Kyle sighed and scrambled over to Rylie, glad speed was on his side.
Before Kyle could even properly settle behind his hackles, Rylie was bounding after them, sensing Kyle's urgency.
Rylie skidded to a stop in front of the capering orange-furred fox.
”You need to slow down. You will get eaten,” Kyle enuciated.

Blair's fingers flexed in Take's grasp, her gaze whipping around at a panicked small voice. Only then did she realize that Cam, Nat, Colby, Ellie and someone else she didn't recognize, were running off into the woods, just barely stopped by Kyle and Rylie. She opened her mouth to say something, but a mixtura between Aella's low, sing-song voice, the chatter of the group and anxiety didn't allow her to actually say anything.

Kipp's eyes trailed after the fragmenting group, looks like it's time to go. He peered up into the sky wondering if it would be worth it to look for them from above. With all the trees it probably wouldn't be that helpful. And what ever it was flying around up there looked like it was pretty big. He sighed and walked away from Clary, and gathered up the his bag and the rest of it's scattered contents, who knew if they'd find their way back here later. He didn't want to have to do his math homework again.

”Yes that’s great, but don't you see the reasoning of staying together?” Kyle was beginning to realize that being an adult did not mean you were in charge. ”Just in case one of you gets lost. Or something tries to eat you.”

As Kyle spoke, a creature watched from the forest, tucked behind the thick, twisted trunk of a centuries old tree. It's eyes gleamed golden and it had long, feathered wings. Everything about him was black as jet, from the fur covering every inch of his humanoid body to his feathered wings to the hooves on his otherwise-human-like legs. The only bit of color he had were those malicious yellow eyes.
He matched the darkness of the gloomy forest perfectly. And so he watched them, intentions as uncertain as the depths of the ocean.
Watching. Waiting.

Kipp smiled, rubbing a hand through his hair and awkwardly throwing the twig away that he hadn't realized had been stuck there this whole time. "Yeah, things are better now. I didn't realize you were old enough to go to college already." He glanced apprehensively over at Cam, he was making small talk while there were kids lost in a dangerous place. "We should all help look for the kids, before something bad happens."

“That’s good. Yeah, let’s go look for the kids.” Clary turned, jogging in the direction everyone else was running off to.

Kevin opened his eyes, watching the group disappear into the forest. He stood up, stuffing the baby chicks into his pockets and tucking the mama hen under his arm. He grabbed his gun, swinging it over his shoulder and following behind them. He didn’t think it was smart to leave, but he was the only one with a weapon and he wasn’t going to abandon all the kids.

"Then come with us." Kylan said blandly, tired of waiting to find Torin. "I'm sorry we didn't come to you and ask you to let us go, but I'm not going to wait around and let my little brother get himself killed in these woods."

Lilith dropped back away to side up to Kevin, holding out her hand which still had the little puffball-ish chick in it. "I've been holding her, um... You should probably take her before she jumps out of my hand, though."

Haddie didn't get to rest for very long before Kyle made his way under the leaves and started messing with her wounds. She groaned, internally because spotted salamanders don't have vocal chords, but let him do his job. After another fifteen minutes, she heard a bit of a scuffle and waddled out from under the leaves. She watched as the group started moving into the woods. She shifted into a human and started hobbling towards them. "Hey, Cam!" she called. "Can I, uh,"he stopped for a moment to catch her breath, wincing at how much her leg already was throbbing. "Can i do the canary thing again? i mean, can I... ride... on your shoulder?" Her voice dropped with her eyes and she cringed a little bit at asking a 16 or 17 year old to carry her. At least she'd only be a few ounces.

Kevin looked down at her hand. “Oh, I thought I was forgetting someone, sorry. Thank you,” he said, scooping the chick up in his hands. “Neposlushnyy tsyplenok ty ostayesh'sya so mnoy.” He said softly to the chick, tucking it into his pocket with one of its siblings.

Kipp walked up behind her, stopping next to her and smiling. "I can carry you."
