Ash struggled to recall the specifics of the scent. Yes, now that he thought about it, it was strikingly familiar to the faint, musky odor of fox that he had occasionally sensed with his human nose before he was brought to the Lab. "Yeah, I think it is fox. But it isn't red fox. It's different than that, somehow," he explained. "Do you think you know who it is?" Based on Dominique's reaction to his description of the scent, he figured she knew exactly who it was, or at least what they were coming for. He scanned the horizon nervously, his heart beating quickly from a combination of the heat and fear of Domestics. If there was a Domestic on their trail, Ash decided, then he would do his best to protect the others. He figured that with his long, sharp claws, he would be able to considerably injure someone, though the thought of severely injuring someone sent shivers down his spine, Domestic or not. He hoped that whoever was approaching them wasn't a Domestic, as the last thing he wanted was to have to fight.

Blake folded his wings as he listened to Alysha. The domies had to be close. The waves he was sending out were returning to him quickly and loudly, even if no one else could hear them. "I don't mind walking. If I fly, I'm sure I'll be spotted, and the domies might try to run off." he explained with a small smile. It was much hotter on the ground. The air was hot in the sky too, but when he was flying he got wind chill, which cooled him down a bit. On the ground, there was nothing, just hot air. "Man, it's so hot, maybe we won't have to fight. We can just say the lab has air conditioning and water." he joked. He'd take that offer if he was a domie, but he wasn't. "Let me know when you can see them. Then we can decide what to do."

When Ophelia said she'd look for Marc, Rose gave her a big smile. "Oh thank you so much! It means a lot to me, and probably Marc too." she exclaimed happily. She hope the girl would be able to find him. She missed him. As she was offered the button, she examined it in her hands while listening to Ophelia. The button could easily be used to signal people discretely, or as the girl said, to make a fire. "We'll try. Thanks for all your help. Feel free to find us again if it gets too dark to search." she offered as Ophelia flew off. Turning to Raymond, she smiled. "Come on. Like she said, something is better than nothing. Let's see if we can make something that resembles a shelter."

"Bye!" Raymond waved as Ophelia took off. He hoped she'd be able to find Rose's friend. He knew what it was like to miss someone close. The image of his family flashed briefly through his mind but he pushed it away. He'd be home soon enough, he was sure.
He nodded at Rose and looked at the dry bushes that dotted the sands. They were large and scraggly looking. On closer inspection they didn't look like such great building materials, but they didn't have much else to work with. So, how were they gonna do this? Raymond rubbed a hand under his chin thoughtfully. "Maybe... maybe we could stack the bushes and make some weird desert igloo. If we wove the branches thick enough, we could get something that would protect us from the elements at least a little."

"Ok." Gwen thought for a moment. It would be better, as much as she wanted to stay close, if they set their camps fairly far away. They would want to avoid getting any nasty shocks while out and about. She also wanted to find some other hybrids. As much of as she disliked being around other people, she wasn't going to do well in this climate. It would be good to have someone who new what they were doing. "Alright, I'm going to find water, shelter, and maybe some other hybrids. Maybe I'll see you in the lab or figure out how to get the anklet off." She knew there was a low chance of them being in the same group. It would be counter productive for the scientists, if they were together, but she could hope.

Well, that settled it. There was only one fox hybrid Dominique knew, and she wasn't friendly. "We need to move," she said, "Now. You, cheetah girl, grab invisible boy and book it. Head for the cliffs, you can hide in there until it gets dark. Turning to the other two, she said, "I can carry one of you. Whoever's faster, follow them, the other one can climb on. That hybrid's a domestic, one of the worst. She's probably got backup too, she wouldn't be so careless otherwise." She wasn't sure if she would be able to outrun them with another hybrid on her back, but she had to try. She didn't know who was slated for capture today, but she wasn't going to take any chances.

Ash wasn't sure if he was relieved or terrified that they were going to run. Running away meant a less likely chance of combat, but it also meant that the Domestics were more likely to use force. As Domo gave everyone instructions, Ash said, "I don't think you're able to carry me..." He was certain he was too large and heavy for Domo to carry him on her back, let alone run while doing so. He didn't want to put them both at risk by slowing her down. He dropped to all fours, ready to run, and waited for Alex and Serena to take off. Anxious, he kneaded at the ground with his front claws like a cat might do to a soft blanket, though he did it not out of a feeling of comfort, but from great fear and apprehensiveness. What would the Domestics do to him for helping others avoid capture? What if he was brought in too, or was injured, or drugged again and placed somewhere completely random in the Dome? He clawed at the hard ground quicker, trying to force away these worried thoughts.

Ophelia gave a backhanded wave behind her as she hovered a few meters off the ground, listening to Rose talk and she smiled inwardly, again. She had some hours before dusk set in, so she made a mental note to track the path that she took in order to return back to the two hybrids. She decided to track her path by scent and hoped that she could follow it properly while keeping a careful mind to the other scents around her.
The flight was tiring and it took up a lot of energy, especially in this heat. So the hybrid resulted in taking on a higher altitude, figuring that it would be energy conserving while giving her a wider eyesight range in order to see from a bird's eye view. As she flew, she started to focus more on her thoughts rather than focusing on her senses. Pondering on the thought of home, she believed that the desert was located near her home, but she probably wasn't exactly in Arizona. The fact disappointed her, but it was nice to at least believe that she was somewhat home. The only difference was that her "home" was in a rough environment, one could easily perish in this desert. Tiring out after what felt like half an hour, she came to a stop, hovering in midair. Panting rather heavily, she slowly flew aimlessly towards the ground.
Settling down on the firm, solid sand, Ophelia tried to catch the scent of any other possible hybrids around her, but everything was mixed and lost in the dry air. Although she could've sworn that there was the faint scent of possibly another hybrid, but she couldn't depict which direction it came from. Sitting down on the hot sand, she inhaled and strained a bit to find it's direction. She came to the conclusion that it was coming somewhere that happened to head east, so she stood up wiped the sweat from her brow and began to walk in the direction that's she concluded the scent came from, still hoping that the scent was taking her to Marc or anyone that knew where he was.
(Ophelia is open for anyone, so anyone can have their character spot her in the distance or so. There isn't any particular group that she is headed in, so feel free to interact with her as she searches.)

Alex stayed silent as Domo and Ash spoke about shelter, he didn't care what Domo said he needed water. He has to live off water, why do you think his last home was set up right next to a river ? Then when Ash said he smelt something weird he soon noticed it, then he smelled something familiar. It took him a moment before he realized who it was, it was Blake. And the only reason he would be out with another hybrid is if they are looking for group one hybrids. And Alex was from Group one, looking over at Serena he said quietly "it's B-Blake with another d-domestic, they're going to t-t-take in the first group. I-I'm the first g-group" his head snapped back at Domo when she called Serena cheetah girl and him invisible boy. He couldn't help but to growl loudly and hiss at her. "we have names !" he hissed at her, his ears pinned to his head. Looking back at Serena and Ash he said "c'mon, l-let's hurry and g-go" he didn't fancy someone else trying to take charge, alex knew more about these domestics and the lab. even though it's a new dome he was still the one that was more educated on things and he definitely wasn't going to take orders from someone he just met.

Alysha chuckled at Blake's comment "yeah that would be nice. But when all the group one domie's are in the lab we will be able to stay in there" she said, not getting anxious as they neared the hybrids. the faster they got them in the closer they would be to staying in the lab while they where being tested on."I can kinda see them, it looks like they are moving around, we might want to hurry" she told Blake. "It might be easier if you got there first to hold them off, or at least see if there's a group one there. I won't be that far behind you so if there is i can help" She told Blake, that seemed like the best thing right now, "well i guess you can't see" she added quietly coming to the realization that he might not be able to tell if there is a group on there "But try to keep them all there, and i'll be there shortly" she told him, looking away from the hybrids and at Blake

Blake listened closely when Alysha said she could sort of see the group. If what she said was true, one or more of them must have either seen or smelled them coming. They had to move quickly if they wanted to catch up with them before they bolted. "They must have sensed us. I'll fly ahead and try to keep them all there, although I might be chasing one down later." he said as he snapped open his open. With a few flaps he was in the air, flying as fast as he could until the waves coming back at him started changing direction. He could hear voices now, of which he immediately recognized Alex. With all the time he had spent with Alex and Serena in the last dome, it didn't take him hard to identify the boy's voice. He heard another male voice and also a female voice, although it took him a bit longer to put names to them. However, thanks to his MP3 player the scientists gave him, he identified them as Ash and Dominique. Which left two hybrids, but he had already confirmed two group one hybrids so he decided to land on the other side of the group so that Alysha and him would essentially sandwich their group. "Woah, woah, woah. What's the rush, Alex? You know, I walked all the way out here, in the heat, to come see you guys. It's only fair you stick around for a minute."

Dorak listened to Gwen, just happy to hear her voice. Although when she said she was going to find other hybrids and shelter, he felt a bit saddened. He knew it was the best though. They couldn't get any closer, and him just talking to her wasn't going to help her. Unfortunately, some other hybrid would have to do that. "Okay. Good luck Gwen. I guess you know where to find me if you ever just want to talk or something. Hopefully we can figure a way to get these anklets off soon!" he called out to her before collecting his cacti and hopping back towards his camp. He needed just a few more things before it would be ready, but they were just weapons. He didn't know what the scientists did with his last boomerang, but he needed a new one if he was going to hunt. And a spear, although, the raw materials in this environment would make it tough. He needed some good reliable wood and a sharp rock. He'd have to go looking for that stuff later. Right now, he needed to stay out of the heat, so he crawled into his makeshift tent, and laid down in the shade.

"Yea.. I thought I might've seen some other people why trying to get away from where I woke up, so I believe we'll be safe for awhile.." Alice explained shortly, before looking back where she flew from. Obviously no one was tailing her, or them, now, but hopefully it won't happen sooner rather then later. "Well, now though, I think we should try to get something set up before night comes. I heard it gets insanely cold." Alice looked up to the sky, it wasn't becoming that late, but it'd be nice to have something in case of an emergency.
