Through the window I see no star:
Something more near
Though deeper within darkness
Is entering the loneliness:
Cold, delicately as the dark snow,
A fox’s nose touches twig, leaf;
Two eyes serve a movement,
that now
And again now, and now, and now



"Asha, or Experiment 7." Asha snorted. "As if they give us names." Asha could tell that Suki was a leopard from her scent, and a shaken one, from her fear-scent. Who could blame her?

"Calm down. You'll be fine. Be good, listen to them, relax."

Asha let out a faint hiss as she tugged on her hair, struggling to untangle it. Her back was pressed against the wall, and she sighed, finally losing the battle.

"So...did they hurt you?" Asha asked, doing a quick smell-check. The girl seemed unhurt, no blood or anything.

Lumi scented the air. A leopard cross. Hmm. That was a new one. She flopped sideways in her cage and watched The new girl, Suki, and the fox girl - Asha.

(OMG, im allmost done with my form. ITS SO LONG!)

[Mystic Starsong]

"Nope, I'm fine. Just a little confused, though I figured they would be moving me out here sometime soon." Suki said, shrugging although Asha probably couldn't see her.
"The scientists obviously underestimate my hearing because they were talking just a little ways away from me. They were saying somthing about putting me into 'The group'. One was arguing that I shouldn't be put out here with the rest of you since somthing, they didn't say what, was going to happen tomorrow and he didn't want me in it. I couldn't tell if it was because he thought I wasn't ready or if he wanted to run some more tests or somthing else." She added,

Lumi blinked "They always underestimate senses." She said, then sat up, tail coiling around her. "They've been up to something recently, I haven't been able to get anything straight because since I bit that one guys hand they're much more careful around me."

[Mystic Starsong]

"You bit one?" Suki said, her tone a mix of repulsion and admiration. She had thought of doing that a couple times, but had never actually done so. She ignored the strange fact and focused on the main subject. The mysterious 'somthing' the scientists had been up to. "They may underestimate us now, but we can help them with that by acting we don't hear what they are saying or see what they are doing. The stupider we act, the stupider they will believe we are, the more they will talk around us." She said, contemplating everything they had learned so far.
"What have they done in the past? I've only been a here a week, and not much has happened to me other than the DNA transfusions and the intenst private training. They had me doing crazy, rediculous stuff, timing me the whole time. How long I could run for without getting tired, how long it took me to climb a 5 story tree, how fast i could find my way through a maze in the middle of the night... wierd stuff like that." She added, her tone implying just how wierd the scientists really were.

[Dragoness]

"I've been poked and prodded and mutated to the point of which I think I'm closer to a mold in a perti dish then anything else." Lumi said. "And I only bit one because they were trying to see how much pain I could stand." She added.

Sophie

She gave a docile blink as the door to her cell was opened. It was, after all, very unusual to see the head-honcho's son doing such a menial task. She paused for a second before she stumbled out of her cage happily, an odd smile on her face as she gave another slow blink, looking for all intense purposes like a slow-witted animal. The dim lighting did little to help her sight, making her adjust her glasses in irritation before she began to trot off after the man; her keen ears doing more to help her than her sight ever would. Casting a look around into the other cells, she was finally able to see the occupants, familiar, yet unknown faces gazing out from behind the clear screens. She gave a mellow wave to the high-strung rabbit that occupied the cell next to her, her gentle gate sending her hips swaying too and fro as she trotted after the older male.

Like a lost puppy she hung a couple steps behind him, following him to a destination she already knew all too well. It was with another flash of Doctor Kelley's badge and the door was swung open wide. It revealed a small court yard, it's four high walls imposing as they loomed over her, making Sophie feel horrible small; though the open expanse above her head was enough to make up for that. It was rare for Sophie to see the stars. There had only been a few times during her 'captivity' that she had been taken outside at night, a few midnight training exercises that had Sophie concentrating on not getting her jugular ripped out from one of the nocturnal hunters rather than on the stars.

With a tame blink and a docile noise Sophie easily slipped out of her sleeping garments, leaving her clad in nothing but a pair of specially designed skin tight briefs and tube top. The now poison drenched clothing was thrown into a small vent she knew led straight to the incinerator. With her skin exposed to the midnight air she couldn't help her eyebrows screwing up in distaste, a deep rumble shifting through the air; her thick hide doing little to stop the chill. Knowing the sooner she was clean, the sooner she was warm and back inside she trotted over to the middle of the court yard. She stood directly over the drain like every time she had done before, legs open wide and arms thrown out; her head cock slightly to the side as her large blue orbs gave another doe-eyed blink at Doctor Kelley. Her golden hide shone, illuminated by the stars and a few courtyard lights; catching off the deadly liquid pooling on her thick skin. She my have been horribly ashamed about her body, years of society beating into her brain that bigger was not better having done their worse. But she had learnt quickly that trying to keep some modesty in this place had a tendency to drag everything out. It was simply better if you shut up and did it so it ended quickly.

'Besides, I have great boobs.'

((My rolling sausages are far superior to yours, foolish mortal. >:U
Lol, Sophie is so dopey. c| It's adorbz.))

Rollo ears round ears twitched, her nose seeming to bounce of the wall. There was a new test in here. It didn't take Rollo long to find out what half-breed she was. Leopard. Her large thumbs swished against each other as she sat up. The dim light didn't provide the sense of sight she was hoping for; she was curious to see what the newcomer was like. After all, it seemed like she had just been transformed; Like me. Brown eyes flashing, she could practically feel her pupils get larger, to find a sense of light somewhere. Eventually, she just closed her eyes, knowing that straining her eyes like that would dim her other senses. Smell. The girl reeked of confusion, and fear. Not surprising. The scientists here practicably stabbed them with pitch forks and lit torches, acting like we - experiments - were their little play-things.
A low-pitched growl was let loose from her throat. She had not meant to growl, and she was sure that even the newcomer would hear it. Who even cares? We are all doomed anyways. If things are as bad as Sophie implied... We are all dead.

No...

We are all in living heck.

((I'm the snow leopard, and Lumi is a little more experienced character. Mystic Starsong is the newbie and her character is a leopard cross.))
