An Apocalypse for the Damned

chp 4."who is she?"

The brisk air of the blacken night settled upon this quiet side of the earth. Leaves and dust blew around outside of the groups temporary home for the night; the three hadn't spoken since they arrived there. A small campfire in the middle of the living room crackled,and popped sending Sparks floating into the muggy air of Pennsylvania.
The three then looked around at each other before they all gazed at the female asleep on the bed- God it had been years since they seen a female, about 3 for them? They couldn't quiet remember them selves when the, explosions happened in their evolving world.
The female mumbled in her self and shifted A bit before stretching soon sitting up and yawning. She froze as she stared at the other furry faces placed around her.
"U-uh, h- hello?"She would ask, her voice was scratchy and rough;
The three glanced at each other before giving her some water;they all then stared at her ripped clothing.
The fox then blushed and stared before covering her self with a blanket noticing the ripped attire she had on. she then glanced around before looking down at the fire; her eyes glowed from the reflection of the warm light, a small flicker in her soul.

hunter watched before getting up and grabbing a spare coat he had in his bag- for the winter even though he never used it. the mix then walked over and handed it to his cousin species. the fox took it and watched the male sit back down on the other side of the warm fire between her and the group of the other sex.

the question was lingering in the air even though no know had spoke yet. miles perked up as he stretched a bit, his blue eyes locking onto the female, as if she was prey.

" so girl, whats your name? and what happened to you?" the wolf spoke gently as he asked the K-9 a question.

the fox spoke after the she had taken a sip, the cold liquid sliding down her throat felt good- since she had water in hours, it felt as if her throat was filled with dust. her purple eyes scanned the males before she licked her lips to dampen them. " i'm lyric.." she spoke, her voice small and adorable she sounded in her early teen years but she wasn't. lyric pulled on the jacket before rubbing her eyes, she then yawned showing her sharp k-9's- along with the strings of saliva from the top of her jaw to the bottom.

the males let out a small purr slightly before they nodded and watched her.

Jake spoke up with a soft purr of excitement " i'm Jake and this is hunter and miles" he said simply " we're all about 19, we're only a few months apart" he said smiling as his mane moved around his shoulders with the movement of his head. he then stretched a little before he got up and set his back off in the corner before the loin glanced out the boarded up windows. lyric watched them get comfortable before she sat up holding the jacket close to her body.

"i'm 17.¨ the fox said before she got up to go see if there was any old clothing left in the house they were staying at, she doubted she would leave the group and she knew that; the males would most like let a female just walk away when it might be the last one they would see.

she sighed and took off the jacket before she slipped on the t-shirt and jeans she found in the closet of what would be the master bed room. lyric then pulled on a hoodie before looking for a bag to put her supplies in;good for her she found an old school back pack.

the fox stuck the jacket in side of it and left the rest of the room in the backpack open for what ever they found along there way of the journey she still needed to ask where the group of friends were heading to. she then found and old note book and box of color pencils and different colored pens, she then smiled and continued to look around the space; the person who lived here first must of been a artist.

the fox then headed down the stairs, her tail swaying gently as it scattered dust and rubble around on the stairs. she then yelped in pain and stumbled down the rest of the stairs, she had stepped on an old nail that was sticking up through the boards. hunter stared before quickly catching the female before anymore damage could be done to her.

the two looked at each other before hunter carried her over to the counter to check out her paw.

" how did this happen?" he asked before as he began to clean up the wound, lyric winced before biting her lip, looking at hunter with this spark in her eyes.

" i stepped on a nail, i didn't see it and i couldn't find shoes..." the K-9 said looking away as they has made eye contact
" i don't think if you has shoes on it wouldn't stop either way," he said shrugging before he wrapped her foot up good, he then looked in his bag to see if he had a spare pair of boots, sadly he couldn't find any.

"darn..sorry lyric i guess we'll have to be careful till we find some shoes" he said before he froze and blushed madly as he felt the female kiss his cheek

"..i don't think i can walk though " she said as her white and brown cheeks turned a tinted red from her flustered state she couldn't help her self anymore.

" well if one of the boys carry my bag i could probably carry you around." he said before grinning and kissing the female for a second after he had pulled down his gas mask.

lyric blushed even more from the kiss and now she saw his face, covering her eyes with her hands she giggled with excitement.

another minute or two passes and the two began to flirt with each other endlessly before jake walked in wondering what they were doing for almost an hour.

jake laughed and watched before he left as hunter picked up lyric bringing her back to the couch by the fire. the group then sighed and relaxed, lyric leaning on hunter as she had wanted him to stay with her on the couch. the other two males laughed and watched amused before they began to make dinner, they has estimated it was around 8-ish aclock. it always had gotten dark around six pm in the winter months of P.A.

lyric didn't wait till dinner to make use of the warm body beside her, she ended falling asleep on hunter, making him blush and his friends chuckle at his reaction to the female.

  The group then all followed,sleeping peacefully as the winter began to progress into the world like every year. The whole group knew they would need to find a place to stay for the winter months as it would probably be to cold for the cold days an nights to travel at all. They had to find a home and find a home fast.
    As the cold night progressed and their fire began to dwindle, the four would sleep peacefully as the cold began to creep up on them.
