Crynime: Encryption

Chapter 33: The Woods

(O.D.D.- Can you see 'him' in the picture above? (~>_>)~)

<<(In the Real World)>>

"Aw man!  This isn't funny."

A brunet with a fluffy beard peaked into Cry's dark house.

"F********k, it's like one of those haunted games...."

He huffed and tugged his bear, mitten-hat down.

He pushed the unlocked door open further.

"Pewds?  Cry?" 'It's not like Cry to leave his door unlocked--even though he invited us over for games...'

The brunet entered the house before closing the door behind him.

It was currently noon, and orange rays of light poured into the living room from the windows.

The brunet scratched his beard and darted to a wall, hiding behind it; he wrapped the mitten parts of his hat over his mouth before making a ninja hand sign.

"Nin, nin..."

Meow.

"ASDFGHJKL!"

The brunet jumped, dropped his little act and spun around.

He sighed in relief when he caught sight of a familiar feline.

"Geez, Kat!  You scared me!"

The brown cat mewled forlornly, causing the brunet to blink in confusion.

"Hey, hey...what's up?"

Kat merely went to Cry's room; the door was open and the computer was still on.

The brunet shivered slightly at the eerie sight, but he followed the small feline to the room.

When he got there, he saw Cry, who had his back facing him.

"Cry--"

"A-Another one....how a-annoying..."

The other brunet froze and gazed at 'Cry' with shock.

'Cry' sighed as he got up from his seat and walked over to the brunet.

"You l-lot are j-just going to m-make him d-disappear faster and faster..."

The darker-haired brunet jumped when 'Cry'--now Virus--lifted his head to look at the other.

"Farewell."

A sea-green light surrounded the newcomer.

<<(With Cry and the Others)>>

"We're in another swamp..."

Cry lifted his feet to try get the muck off; he shivered slightly.

'Ah, that's right...'

The brunet glanced at his back, where his jacket and t-shirt underneath was torn.

Sup hopped out of his hoodie and onto his shoulder, looking at Cry's current problem.

There was a white glow and his jacket was fixed; a Cry blinked in surprise and looked at the white creature with amazement.

"Cool!  You can fix almost everything!"

Sup giggled and danced around Cry's shoulder before stiffening; the brunet blinked in confusion at the other's reaction until he too felt a chill go up his spine when he saw something.

Russ noticed Cry's frozen form; he raised an eyebrow.

"Cry?  What's up?"

The brunet didn't respond to the other as he walked up to a pine tree not too far from the group.
