Cody smacked his palm against the floor and cursed, "Sonofabitch, while we were here arguing I forgot about the urgency of finding those two kids!"

Cody pushes himself up and turned to Blaze, "Help if you want but if you don't I can't promise anything will help you anymore. "

Blaze and Jinxx watch as Cody dashes out of the door and to the left, to the entrance. Jinxx grabbed onto Blaze's hand to yank him along, his strength was greater and he pulled her against him. Her back against his chest, his arms around his waist. Blaze dipped his head down to Jinxx's shoulder. His lips brushed against her skin as he spoke, "I'm sorry, baby."

Jinxx rolled her eyes and grinned, "It's alright. I wasn't mad."

Blaze smiled and lifted his head and allowed his lips to meet hers. They stood there for a few moments, lips locked in a kiss. Jinxx's hands traveled up Blaze's arms and up to his neck. Blaze's hands traveled down Jinxx's sides to rest on her hips.

One pair of gray eyes peered from behind a tree. The gray wolf stepped out and peered around Blaze's body. Blaze's lips curled, "Penny, where's your troublemaker brother?"

The gray wolf's gray eyes glanced up at Blaze before barking out a reply. Blaze reached out to pet Penny's head. Penny didn't cower or back away, she leaped forward. Her front paws on the seat of the Impala, eyes gazing right at Jinxx.

Blaze reached for her scruff to pull her back, "Get your brother and get hom-"
