Searching

[.:Yami:.]

OMG! I'm SO sorry! I have been so busy! I've had computer problems, it crashed, and I've been out of town. But I have not forgotten you guys!

I, Nami, stood there, looking. The water swirled where Honoo had disappeared. I was genetly given to Avaron. Blinking I gathered all my energy I had left. Then I started screaming like a maniac. Come on! We have to go! We have to save him! I tried to dive down, but the waves pushed me back each time. Tears started streaming down my face. He can't be gone. I whispered, This is all my fault. We have to figure out who this wolf is and save him, it's what Honoo wanted. It's not you! It was my stupid fault he's gone......

I was weaking I could tell. Bubbles seeped out of the corner of my mouth, and I was being bashed againist rocks. My eyes started to close but I kept trying to open them. No no I have to make it! I thought as I tried to move, but my strength was spent and I was exhaused. I let the waves continue to carry me but I felt it! A break in the current! I could feel adrenaline pumping in my veins as I made my battered busied body work. I manged somehow to get out, but as I got out I felt sand under my paws. I could think no more as I collapsed on the sand.

I felt her lauch violently out of my mouth but I did nothing as she slowly swam around. I saw Akebono look around like a zombie and she slowly started swimming after the manen's scent. She knew what Honoo wuld have wanted and she was going to do it. I said to Nami, "It is no one's fault Honoo was caught in the current. He chose to save you instead of letting you fall."

I slowly followed the phantom's scent trail but then I felt something in me just snap. I just could not take it. I felt like something was wrong but I didn't know what. I shouted to the phantom manen, "Hey we need your help! Honoo needs help and we need to follow the current and find him! Help him please." The last sentance was whispered as I continued following the manen.

+ooc: A little late, but not too much. Hope you don't mind?+

I turned my head around and glared at them. "Don't you think I would've done that if I could already? If you wanted me to help, you shouldn't have caused me to drain all my energy! Or better yet, stayed away when I first told you to!"
I looked back forward and swam harder.
""Besides, it would probably happen right when I'd grabbed him back."

[Yami]

I ish to lazy to log in.


Calming down I realized that Avaron was right. Honoo had decided to save me instead of let me die, that just made my pain all the worse. It felt like part of my heart had been torn out and thrown in the ocean to drown, sinking to the bottom with Honoo. "Your right. But I want to help. But right now I just feel so useless." Sighing I watched as Akebono slowly swam away. "What do we do now?"

[Xiao]

I lay there like a dead dog as I tried to wake up but I could feel myself fading. My candle flame was almost going out. The water in my chest was keeping me from breathing yet I wanted to breath so badly I felt like I was on fire. It felt like there were heavy sharp rocks on top of me. I had to get the water out yet I could do nothing but just lay there.

I saw the look in Akebono' face and knew this Phatom guy was going to get a serious chewing out. She knew we could find Honoo on our own but it wold take awhile. I think I knew why we needed to get Phatom to help and I decided to aid her. I flew close to her as she got ready to shout at the figure of Phatom.

I took one look at him swiming away and I shouted so loudly Avaron winced "Hey you I'm not done talking yet! Do you know how freaking rude it is to run away when someone is talking to you? I don't care that you say we should not have followed you because I sure would have still gone after you. God can you get it though your thick skull we are not leaving you alone? We needed your help to help us find and follow the current. If you really want to change help us out! Honoo is trying hard to help you and this is how you help him? I'm sorry for yelling but I happen to be very upset that my brother is gone!" With my speech done I clamped my mouth shut and swam under the water trying to find the current. The water was pulling me down and soon I felt a tug at me paw and I swam up fast and started following the phatom. I had to follow him or else Honoo would be mad.

+ooc: If Yami gets to not log in I get to too. And, you know, I'm sort of enjoying making this hard for you. It's fun. :P+

I turned back and growled.
"Don't you get it? Me being able to change is not the problem. If it was just changing I would've gotten rid of this problem a long time ago! It's like a side effect or symptom - you can' t get rid of it unless you get rid of everything else, and I can't do that either!"
I was thoroughly wet, miserable, and these annoying wolves weren't helping at all.
"Rude? Possibly, but I seriously don't care! As for the current, you can feel it, can't you? When are you going to get through your thick skull to leave me alone?"
I grumbled to myself and pawed the water, then moved forward, hoping they wouldn't follow me. The shouting might not help, but it made me feel good.

[Yami]

{That is not fair! You are copying me! *sticks out tongue* Copier! XDDD }


Following Avaron's lead I lept in the air and glidded to where they were, landing softly with a little splash next to Avaron. We kept swimming towards him, and every time he kept swimming away. How was this to end? We couldn't swim forever. I was getting tired, and being tired made me angry. We will never get it through our heads to stop following you! Honoo sacrificed himself so that we could stop you! Doesn't that mean anything to you?! Or have you never experienced any love, or friendship? Can't you do something nice for once in your life!? This guy was really ticking me off. Why couldn't he just make everything easier, if h hadn't been so stubborn maybe none of this would have happened.

[Xiao]

I was still staying calm but the same could not be said of Akebono. I could feel the stream and anger coming off her in waves. Man even I was starting to lose my cool. I could feel myself losing it which was rare and I even felt the need to snape at Nami, "Why are we even following him? We should leave him to die a lonely death in the ocean. I think we should save Honoo." I could see Akebono's shocked look but right then I just didn't care.

I was starting to get mad at this manen but when Avaron snaped at him I truly started thinking how she was not made for this yet she still came along. I didn't want to drag her with us but I could not leave her. What she needed was rest and cure not running after a phatom. This was so cruel yet what could we do?

[Teri]

+ooc: Copier? Hmph. *logs in* Now you have to take a look at my signature with that link in it. Go on, click it!
I shall now take pity on you so you don't have to keep swimming. Or rather, you do, but I'll speed up plot so we don't do it forever.+

Phantom
Damn it! Damnitdamnitdamnit!
I turned back and glared at them.
"Could you stop shouting at me already? It's hurting my ear-drums."
"Love? Friendship? Yeah sure, before I @#!% died!"
I grumbled to myself, then added, "Well, you're obviously not going to let me alone until I help you with that other wolf of yours. Fine! Then will you leave me alone?!"
I took a deep breath and slid underwater, letting the current pull me. If I was right, it'd take me to that Honoo. If I was wrong - well, the worst thing that could happen wouldn't be able to happen to me. Die again, this time stay dead? So many @#!% times I'd tried that already, it wouldn't work...

+ooc: No, I'm not suicidal. My character is. Thank you.
Now go click that link in my siggy? Please? And tell people about it?+

[.:Yami:.]

I blinked in amazement. Did that just work? Is he really going to save Honoo? Hope fluttered in my chest, making want to do loops. I wanted Honoo to come back so badly. I paced in the water, if that was even possible. Getting excited at every little bubble or noise. Oh why was it taking so long?

[Xiao]

I thought I heard something. Could it be an animal? There was so much water. My life was like a candle flame that was on a ledge. The water was coming closer and closer to it. At least I could die happy hoping that my family would get to that phantom.

Finally I think we would have trouble causing this phantom to stop running. I was already tired of having him run away. Why does he have to keep thinking he would always hurt people? It made me so frustered that he was being this stupid!

I was starting to feel Avaron's anger like a wave. It was so big! This was so werid she was never this angry! I was starting to feel nervous about the phantom running so I said to them. "Guys we should follow above water." I started to swim away with Avaron toward Honoo.

[Teri in a rush]

+ooc: Sorry it took a while. Busy, busy, busy - good news is the technical difficulties with my computer that I've had since...October?...might finally be fixed soon, and I can play pets 5 and get more characters.
But is everybody sure they don't want a piano? Buying it will contribute to my DS fund...*chibi puppy eyes*+

Phantom

I saw a flash of red fur on the rocks and sand ahead of me, then past me. I struggled against the current to go back and managed to splash onto shore.
I'd found him - that was good. The bad news was that his lungs were obviously full of water, and I was too tired to drag him away from the approaching tide. I'd have to empty his lungs and then all I could do was wait for him to revive or for those others to get here.
I pushed a paw onto his chest and down, on a certain spot. If this worked, all - or at least most - of the water should come spewing out of his mouth.

[Teri]

+ooc: *pokepoke* Hello? Anybody?+

[Xiao is a lazy fatty]

Where oh where is Yami?

[.:Yami:.]

Right here! Sorry I'm so late.


Nami swam after her the others. Oh she hoped that Honoo could be saved. She hoped that they would soon find land. She wished for a soft bed of moss, her legs ached and her head swam. She didn't know how long she could keep this paddling up. But she would force herself to keep going until they were safe. On the bright side the strange wolf had finally listened to them. And that was about the only happy thing she could think of.
