(My apologizes for the increased wait; I wasn't able to be on long yesterday. Also wish I could've added more...)
Keith and Naomi didn't comment much on what was going on, the words sinking in from the others. As the wisp began to move once more, Keith hastily forced himself up the other side of the ditch and went after it. "Keith! Hold on! You wouldn't be able to understand it!" With that, Naomi dashed after him. ~~~ Charlie raised a brow at Zoey's actions. Indeed, there was something quite odd with her. The German Shepherd didn't bother to doubt Aric's wolf lineage and went with it. "Alright then, I'll see what I can scrounge up. Probably'd have problems getting the chicken though. And Itchy, chill out while I'm gone, okay?" With that, Charlie padded back over to where Sasha was, calling to her, "Hey, Sasha, can ya spare some food? Zoey and a friend are here".

Soapy watched Poppy run off after the wisp and kept digging. The rain suddenly felt harder on her already soaking wet fur and she wondered if the storm was getting worse. She quickly dug and then stopped, looking at Britney. "I think its big enough for you to fit under Britney", Soapy said, sliding a little on the sludge by the edge. "Keith and Naomi, you guys try too". Before the words had even left her mouth she saw Keith force himself under the gate then soon after Naomi. They were going so fast Soapy almost got knocked back down into the ditch. She quickly leaped out of the way as Naomi dashed after Keith then slid back over to Britney. "Guess it's big enough", Soapy smiled to her friend. "Come on Brits, maybe Poppy found something out." Soapy waited for Britney to reach the other side before she dashed after the others. She slid to a stop on the wet grass next to Poppy and stared up at the wisp. "Well?", Soapy asked, panting and looking at Poppy. "Did you find out what kind of animal it was? Is it dangerous? What is it?" Soapy watched as the wisp flew in circles a loud whistling noise coming from it. That made Soapy think. It moved like a fish but sounded like a bird when it whistled. Was it a fish? Soapy shook her head. Why would a fish be haunting them? And a bird just didn't sound right. She sniffed about the area the wisp was under but couldn't catch anything. It was then a question flew into her mind. "Why did you bring us here?", Soapy asked the wisp. "There's nothing here but a grave that's blank." Once again the wisp dived into the ground then came back up. "I don't understand", said Soapy. "Poppy, what's it trying to tell us?"
(OOC-Again, not my best. Bleh. And welcome back KT. I was worried. And sure Wonder, we can make it a fox. Foxes are my boyfriend's favorite animal. Preferably kitsunes but he loves foxes too)

(OOC- Oh lord, that "Why would a fish be haunting them" made me laugh. On the inside I mean, but it got a smile out of me ) Britney slipped under the gate and into the graveyard. Being in it felt creepy. All too creepy. Things were creeping up her back and tingles were going down her spine... "This is a miserable place, isn't it? Then again, it is a graveyard." And with that, she raced after Soapy to see what Poppy found out about the wisp. She found Poppy looking at it, making a conversation with it. Britney grimaced at the sight of her sister being bizarre, as usual. "What's going on, what did you find out?" Britney asked. "It's a fox" Poppy answered Soapys question. "I doubt it's dangerous but only Lord knows what it's doing." She watched what it was doing. "Oh, if only I had my book with me, I would be able to tell what it's doing, but Jimmy has it..." "Why the heck does Jimmy ha- oh, never mind! You two are just strange anyway!" Britney snarled. Poppy rolled her eyes and watched the wisp. "Indeed, why have you taken to us to this place?" Poppy asked it. She watched it's actions. She nodded slowly. "It is saying something about the Storm of Souls... Storm of Souls? What on Earth is that?" Poppy asked. "I've never heard of it." "Maybe Jimmy knows" Britney taunted, with a slight smirk. "Oh shut it!" Poppy snapped. "Now isn't the time!" ~*~*~*~*~* Sasha turned her head and looked at Charlie approaching her. Great, just what she needed. More distraction from work. "What do you need, slick?" she asked, through a sigh. Charlie asked her top spare some food for Zoey. Zoey? Her considered competition? Sasha sighed and rolled her eyes. "What does she want?" Sasha inquired. "And I'll see if we have it." ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Jumping off the truck, a black and white dog tumbled onto the street of San Fransisco. "Ow... ooooh... I'll never do that again" he muttered, standing up. He shook off his fur and looked around. he could barely see through the pouring rain. He picked up the small black book he had in his jaws and trotted down the street. My God, what weather we're having here... he thought, walking through the wind and rain. he shook off his fur impatiently, snarling. He looked ahead to see the graveyard. the same graveyard Britney, Poppy and the rest were. And he could smell Poppy. "Ah, there you are, lovely" he said, through the book in his mouth, which ended up sounding like "fare oo are lufly". He trotted to wards it and knocked the gate of it's hinges, using only his strength. Dropping the book he yelled "KNOCK KNOCK!" He scanned the creepy place with great interest. Picking up the book again, he walking down, to wards the scent. He turned his head to see a collection of dogs, examining a flying... thing. He walked down, and sat beside Soapy. Dropping the book he yelled, over the wind and thunder "WHAT THE HECK IS THAT THING?!" Britney screamed in startlement and Poppy turned her head sharply. "Jimmy!" Britney exclaimed. "What are you doing here?!" "Hitched a ride" Jimmy smirked. "So, what is the party 'bout?" He looked at Soapy. "Oh, hello lovely" he crooned, sarcastically. He always greeted females by calling them "lovely". Unless he hated them. He looked at Kieth and narrowed his eyes in curiosity. "Only guy?" he asked. "Yikes." Then he looked at the wisp. "Oh God, it's the end of the world!" "Don't be an idiot!" Britney snapped. "Of course it's not!" "I know it ain't, beautiful!" Jimmy sneered. "I was kidding, weren't I?" (OOC- Sorry, I couldn't hold back the urge to rp as Jimmy

Soapy thingyed her head as Poppy explained that the wisp was a fox's soul. "A fox?", Soapy asked. "And I don't think it is dangerous. When it was talking to me before it swirled around me and I got this calming feeling. A feeling like it wouldn't hurt me. I think it just needs help". Soapy heard Poppy bring up a book, someone named Jimmy. Must be a friend of hers, Soapy thought. She looked at Poppy when she brought up something called the 'storm of souls' or at least that's what the fox had told her. Soapy tilted her head. "Storm of souls", Soapy repeated. "Sounds like.....hmmm.....maybe it has something to do with the wisps. Maybe within the raindrops are souls who are stuck on this earth?" She gave it some more thought but was suddenly interrupted by a loud rattle coming from the front gate was was just in time to see a black and white mutt walk through the now broken gate. Guess that's our way out, Soapy thought, sighing. The dog yelled 'knock knock' which made Soapy giggle a little. "That was....more than a knock I believe", said Soapy. She saw him walk over to them and sit next to her. Soapy saw the dog look at the wisp and she smiled. "Its called a-", Soapy started who was then cut off by Britney who called the mutt Jimmy. So THIS was Jimmy.... Britney asked him what he was doing here and Jimmy explained that he hitched a ride. When he looked at Soapy he called her lovely. Soapy didn't know whether to snarl at his statement or smile so she just sat there. "Hello", she said softly. "You must be Jimmy. Well, I mean you are. Poppy was just talking about you." Soapy saw him eye Keith and Soapy gave Keith a look that said, 'Don't start a fight now'. Jimmy commented that Keith was the only guy around and Soapy couldn't help but feel slightly uncomfortable around Jimmy. Hopefully he didn't think Keith was their pimp or something and try to take one of them away. Soapy wasn't in the mood to be dragged away or fight or even WATCH a fight right now. There were other important matters. When Jimmy looked at the wisp he yelled that it was the end of the world to which Britney sneered then Jimmy said he was kidding. Soapy tilted her head at him. He was a little strange and gave off a 'tough, street dog' vibe. Much like that of Dante's vibe, or Scott's. Soapy looked at Jimmy and tried to smile. "Its actually a wisp Jimmy", said Soapy, trying to be nice. "A soul of the dead. Poppy was able to figure out it was a fox and now we're trying to figure out why it lead us here. Don't worry though, its harmless. Just upset and angry. We don't know why." Soapy noticed the black book. "Hey", said Soapy. "Poppy said you borrowed a book from her and that she could understand the wisp using that book. Was that the one?" Soapy bent her head and gave it a sniff and prodded her paw against the cover like it was an explosive.
(OOC-Lol. Wow it's Jimmy! And Wonder, the only reason Soapy thought it was a fish was because of the way it moved. The way it 'swam' in the air made her think of fish. And idk how but I think I'm gonna throw Dante in here in a few posts. Eh, we'll see.)

(OOC: Going to play as other characters for this post as well as Charlie and my OCs... also, Wonder, check your PMs. Also, Charmyte, sorry for the delay on saying this but it's good to see you're doing better. Finally, I'm hoping the addition of another character will not make the scene overly chaotic...)
Keith stared up at the will o' wisp, watching its movements in the sky. For whatever reason, he too felt a strange sense of calm watching it. Once more he wondered if it was the same wisp he saw earlier that day.
Meanwhile, Naomi began to walk back and speak to the group, "I actually think I know", she said, "What the fox ghost is talking about. A Storm of Souls is an uncommon but possible phenomenon in the fabric of reality. It is said that the barriers that keep the dead in the spiritual worlds is blurred and that spirits can easily make their way into the mortal world due to this blurring. This storm is said to furthermore attract supernatural and paranormal beings like bees to honey..."
As Jimmy appeared, Naomi blinked and, twirling her cap's brim forward, tipped it in greeting before returning it to its former reverse. He wondered how this aforementioned book could allow the group to understand a wisp of all things, and as such she let her words get the better of her judgment. "Bah, who needs some lousy book when you've got me?" She shrugged, closed her eyes, and sent a message out to the wisp using her mind. Hey there, fox. What is wrong? Do not be afraid that I can speak with you without talking aloud; this is a power of my mind, and trust me, I will not hurt you unless given a reason to... ~~~ Charlie couldn't help but catch Sasha's eye roll. He wasn't much of a swinger; he had feelings for Sasha and wasn't planning on leaving her for some other dog any time soon. Still, he doubted she would believe him if he said so, hence why he merely said, "I'll need a ham sandwich, and wolf boy back there wants a chicken..."
Soon enough, though, an image began to show up on a nearby glass mug. Oh no, thought Charlie, having become used to this by now but dreading it nevertheless, Here we go again...
The swirling image of pink soon appeared as the face of the angel known as Annabelle. "Charles?", she asked.
Charlie groaned audibly. "What is it now, Annabelle?" he asked in a monotone voice.
"Charles, I'll need Itchiford over here as well. Have him tell Zoey and Aric to get far from the door, as well... something wicked this way comes..."
Charlie slowly turned his head, and only now did he see the unusual green fog coming in. "Itch! Zoey!" he called out in surprise. "Get away from the door!" ~~~ Despite the eerie calm the storm produced, all was not well. In an alleyway a good distance from the pet cemetery, none other than Carface and Killer were approaching, carrying some strange-looking equipment made from a greenish-tinged metal, a similar-colored mist being produced by it... ~~~ Further in the pet cemetery, a black lab peered left and right. Clenched in her teeth was a bullwhip with a plus-shaped cross built into the end of the handle. Around the dog's neck was a silver Catholic crucifix. All seemed quiet for now, but the dog could sense danger was nearby. She suddenly saw a shadow shift, and knew her quarry was near. She dashed after it as silently as she could, her dark pelt helping her to blend in with the shade produced by the trees.
The shadow slunk nearer and nearer to the group, currently in the form of a circle on the ground. No sooner did it come into sight would it stop, hearing the snarling of the Labrador. In one fluid motion the dog would sit back on her haunches, grip the handle of her whip, and throw the length of the whip at the shadow. A loud whip-crack would resonate in the air from her strike, and she knew she'd be detected soon enough, but nevertheless her goal was performed: exorcise the shadow before it could harm the group. The shadow in question sunk away and vanished, leaving the black lab alone.
"Uhm..." she said nervously, dropping her weapon. "...hello there".

"Hitched a ride?! Here?! How?!" Poppy asked, a little bewildered Jimmy was here. "Truck, m'darlin'" he replied, shaking rain off his scruffy black and white coat. "Wasn't a very good truck, mind ya. Too cluttered with useless stuff like furniture." Poppy giggled slightly. She always laughed at Jimmy's jokes. Britney rolled her eyes. "And Scott let you?" Britney asked. "Baby, ya know he would do anything to get ridd'a me" Jimmy said, his eyes wearing a smirk. Jimmy wasn't flirting. He just called everyone something different. Unfortunately, these weren't the most colorful ones in Jimmy's vocabulary. Britney scoffed loudly and looked away, haughtily. When Soapy greeted him, Jimmy smirked and tilted his head to wards her. "Nice to meet you." He could feel her uneasiness, which egged Jimmy on. Like once said, Jimmy had no feelings for emotions. In fact, he couldn't care about anyone else to save his life. Except for a very scarce variety. When he was finished taking in the only male to the group, he looked at Naomi. "Oh-ho, slick!" when she greeted him with a tip of her hat. "I like that, lovely." He smirked out a grin before looking at Soapy again. "So, I'm guessing your Soapy?" "She is" Britney responded for her, before thinking. She smiled Soapy an apology. "Yea, I hear things" Jimmy continued. "Heard your story, yikes. Bad." He grimaced on her behalf. "I was ditched by a couple of mangy mutts when I was young. Now, look at me." He leaned in closer. His breath often smelled stale. Sometimes of tobacco, other times it smelt blood. "Just call me the Big Bad Wolf." "Ignore him, Soapy" Britney said, airily, glaring at her out-of-order friend. "I'm messin' ya, Soaps!" Jimmy laughed. "I know you gotta mutt on ya paws. Got the looks and everything." Britney rolled her emerald green eyes. "Jimmy, just shut up" she warned him. "Well, I can check now" Poppy said, speaking up since Jimmy's arrival. It was only then Naomi interrupted her. Britney grimaced and Jimmy inhaled sharply through his teeth. "Oooooh... shouldn't have done that, beautiful" he said, shaking his head slowly. Poppy stared at Naomi for a long length of time. Poppy had... mental issues. And easy little things could knock her off the hanger... Suddenly, the arrival of a new dog disturbed Poppy's thoughts on how to slaughter Naomi. Jimmy's tune changed at the sounded sound from behind him. Barking a loud snarl, he swirled around and leaped forward, so he could see who it was. Just a black lab. Armed. "What you playin' at?" he snarled. "Jimmy! Calm!" Britney yelled. Jimmy raised himself from his attack position slowly, chilling out. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Sasha was taking it all absent mindedly, writing it down on a piece of paper until Charlie cut himself off. "What is it, Zoey here asking for something more... exciting?" she asked, teasingly and coldly before looking up to notice Annabelle. "... oh." Sasha listened in and was a little shocked to hear what Annabelle said. "What on earth does she mean, Charlie?" she asked. She glanced over at the door and saw the green fog and gasped dramatically. "WHAT IS THAT?!" (OOC- Ah, player Jimmy and evil Jimmy, all in one post. Two for one I guess

Aric was curious of how Zoey was acting. Strange chic, I expected her to be more mellow.
"Zoey, that doesn't even begin to make sense." Itchy questioned. "As juxtaposed....what does that even mean?"
"Ah, Itchy." Zoey laughed. "You just need to relax."
But Itchy had no time to relax. He heard Charlie yelling from the kitchen. Itchy couldn't hear all of it, but he got the gist of it: stay away from the door. He turned to where Zoey and Aric had once entered, and now a mysterious green mist was making a move into cafe.
"Oh my! Zoey! Aric! Look!" He screamed at the top of his little lungs. Aric, being the fraught filled wolf he was, lunged for the safety of the kitchen, but Zoey, still laughing on, was more reluctant. Realizing that she wouldn't move, Itchy hopped over to her and tried to pull her away from the oncoming smoke. "Move! Move!" But Zoey didn't budge, not even in the little.
"What is the matter Itchy?" Zoey said, reverting back to a calm, normal tone. Itchy, scared to the undercoat, would only point behind her, saying nothing but irrelevant gibberish. "That still doesn't..." Zoey slowly whispered as she turned around. When she saw the trail of green mist moving toward her. Zoey let out a yelp, and on cue, the green smoke spontaneously dashed toward her, entering her heart. Zoey let out a blood curdling cry and flashed with light as the fog shot into her. Itchy tried again desperately to drag Zoey out of the line of fire, but merely touching her sent a spark of pain down Itchy's spine.
"Itchy! Get away from there!" Aric yelled from a distance. Itchy didn't want to abandon her, but he realized that he had no choice. He slowly backed away from Zoey, but as he did, he could see a spiritual figure leaving Zoey's body. It wandered over to Itchy.
"You could have saved me..." it spoke in a ghastly voice before dissipating. Itchy then dashed for the kitchen, and watched the last of the green smoke enter Zoey's body. In one final blast of light, the smoke was gone, and Zoey was lying on the floor - motionless.
Itchy moved over slowly to the body of the singer. "Is she?" He hovered (as much as a dachshund could) above her head. But, as quick as a lightening strike, her eye opened, now a deep shade of hazel. Without warning, Zoey got back on her feet, and grabbed Itchy around the neck - holding him high.
"Oh, Itchy..." she spoke. "It's you. It took me decades, but now I finally found you! And now you'll die, just like I did!"
(OOC: Long post, I know. And it appears Zoey's been possessed! Oh dear! I was debating making it Aric, but I decided not too, considering I might make a future FF starring him, and I want him in prime condidtion.)

When Jimmy looked at Soapy and asked if she was indeed Soapy, she looked at him amazed. How did he know her name? Did Poppy or Britney talk about her? After all, Jimmy had said he was in Scott's gang and that Scott was happy to get rid of him. Soapy was about to answer when Britney spoke up for her, giving Soapy an apologetic look. Soapy looked at Britney and gave her an 'its okay' look back. Then she looked at Jimmy who had said he heard her story. Did Poppy tell him that much about her? She gave Poppy and Britney looks like 'what did you tell him?' She heard him say he was ditched by some mutts when he was little then lean in closer to Soapy. His muzzle was inches away from hers and she looked down, smelling his breath as he spoke. It smelled of blood. Soapy gulped as she thought who's blood that might be and thought she saw some left over blood around his muzzle. Soapy noticed something weird though. His eyes. They weren't just the eyes of a tough guy but someone who was lonely, hurt deep inside. Soapy snapped back to reality when Britney defended her, telling her to ignore Jimmy, who confessed he was just joking around and that he knew about Nicky. "Now how would you know that?", Soapy asked slyly, her eyes darting to Britney, then at Poppy. She looked over at Naomi curiously and watched her. What was she doing? "Anyone know what she's doing?", Soapy asked. "I think she's trying to reach the fox with her mind but I'm not su-" Suddenly a noise came from behind them. Soapy had whirled around when Jimmy did, her fear falling. It was just another dog, with a weapon. Soapy's heart began to race as she thought of the worst. Was this dog gonna use that weapon on them? Her heart sunk for a second before she noticed a crucifix around the black Lab's neck and her weapon, it had a cross on it. After Britney had calmed Jimmy down Soapy turned to Jimmy. "Jimmy stop!", said Soapy. "She's not here to hurt us. Look, she has a crucifix around her neck and on her weapon is a cross. She must be here to help us." It was then Soapy remembered something. She turned toward Keith. "Hey Keith?", she asked. "You still have that bottle of holy water right?"
(OOC-Okay. Feeling a little better. Still upset about me and my boyfriend's fight but I thought Id post even though I'm feeling down. Writing and rping are good fix-me-ups for when you feel sad or bored. Only one of the many reasons why I rp. So yeah, now you guys can post.)

(OOC- I'm sorry to hear things aren't going well, Soapy...)
Naomi was in the zone, completely unfazed by the crack of the whip. She was busy in conversation with the fox spirit, having entered a trance.
As he heard the whip crack of the black Labrador Keith dropped the bottle in surprise, his head darting to her. Keith didn't know what it was, but he had a feeling this dog wasn't there to hurt them even without seeing her religious symbols. At Soapy's question, Keith nodded, turning his head and poking a paw at the dropped bottle.
The black lab nodded, slowly picking up her bullwhip's handle. "Indeed, I am not here to harm you... my name is Sarai; you can call me 'Sarah' if you wish. Whatever you prefer. I doubt you'd believe me if I told you what I was doing with this here, but I mean no harm". She nodded, and added after that, "I came here because I had heard of some sort of paranormal activity, and..." She looked up, finishing, "...seems I had found it". ~~~ Charlie ran recklessly toward Zoey to try and get her out of the way, but failed to get there in time. As the green fog entered her body, Charlie stopped dead in his tracks, watching in horror at what was going on.
As soon as Zoey began to act, Charlie had the hopes she was alright. But as soon as she grabbed his friend's neck, he knew she was not there. Snarling and clenching a paw into a fist, he thrust his weight into a forceful punch aimed at Zoey's head, yelling at whatever controlled the dog's body, "Fat chance!" ~~~ Outside, Carface and Killer grinned, the green fog delivering the immortal essence of Zoey to the machine. "Well well", said the Pit Bull, "Lookit what we have here, Killer... I'm sure Belladonna will appreciate this greatly..."

Zoey, distracted by trying to kill Itchy, was hit across the head, knocking her to the floor. Itchy was dropped, and scurried over to the safety of a nearby table. While the blow was quite powerful, Zoey got back on her paws, and licked her jaws.
"Well, if it isn't Charlie. I'm surprised." Zoey's voice slowly changed from her usual feminine voice to a gruff and manly one. "I thought you went down with the ship. I guess I'll do myself a favor and take you out too!" She clenched her fists and showed her sharp teeth.
Aric debated how to help the German Shepard. He sneaked around the tables to get behind Zoey. He, without thinking, lunged for Zoey. Without breaking a sweat, Zoey grabbed Aric by the snout as he got behind her. She swiveled around and took a bite at Aric's neck, before tossing him away.
Itchy crawled over to Aric's body. He was beginning to bleed where he'd been bit. "Just...stay here." Itchy panicked. He ran back into the kitchen, trying to find a way to help the wolf.
"With those...distractions out of the way, you are going down, Mr. Barkin!" Zoey yelled before charging towards the German Shepard.
(OOC - Same here, Soapy. Just keep your spirits up, and RPing does appear to be very calming. Ish. But it is true that my real Zoey bit the neck of another dog - Mickey. He was fine later, after the bleeding stopped, but it gave us all a scare.)

"Well, you ain't none of 'em police dogs, are ya? God, I hate them kissy two-shoes... keepin' the law..." Jimmy snarled. He had plenty of encounters with police dogs before, and Jimmy had a hatred so deep for them... Even if he did always win. Britney shifted uncomfortably. She had told Jimmy about Nicky, but didn't DARE tell him about his status as a police dog... shecould only imangine the encounter... and she was almost certain it wouldn't be pleasant. "Oh, be wise Jimmy! Of course she isn't!" Britney hissed. "And she's no murderer either!" She was now adressing Poppy, who edged away from the newcomer. "Well, good... 'bout the police thing anyway. It would be pretty dang awesome if ya murdered someone though!" Jimmy grinned evilly. "Rebel against society." "Sarai? That's an interesting name" Britney said, kindly. "We never thought you did... DID we, Jimmy?" "Well, you just cracked it and I thought you were out to get us for a second... or me..." Jimmy spaced out for a second, to overcome what was looking like a rage rant. "God, I hate 'em police dogs. God Almighty, if I ever get my paws on one of 'em again, I'll tear the guy to shreds, leaving him to BEG in my mercy and...!" Jimmy reared up and slammed his fore paws on the ground, letting out a blood curtling snarl. "JIMMY!" "WHAT?!" "CALM!" Jimmy calmed himself, taking a deep breath. "Right... yea... calm..." "Forgive him" Britney explained. "He's got anger issues... and... other issues we're all bound to find out sooner or later... I'm Britney." She waved a paw over at Poppy. "That's my sister, Poppy. And this is, obviously, Jimmy." "Yea, you got the name, so don't go askin' for it" Jimmy snapped, with a ever-so-slight smirk.

When Jimmy brought up the fact that he hated police dogs she almost snarled. Nicky was a police dog. She ignored the other in defiance and listened to the newcomer as she introduced herself as Sarai. "Nice to meet you Sarai", said Soapy, putting on a grin. "My name is Soapy." Britney suddenly spoke up about the cracking noise the whip made, Jimmy adding that he thought he was after him. If only, Soapy thought. She was already starting to dislike this Jimmy character. Suddenly she was jerked out of her thoughts when Jimmy started screaming and raging and ranting about police dogs and if he ever met another one he would rip him to shreds. Soapy didn't know whether to be scared for Nicky or to stand up for him. She went with the second after Britney had calmed him down. Anger issues?, Soapy thought. Duh. And I'd bet money that he has other issues. Soapy glared at Jimmy as he smirked then made her move. She leaped in front of him and started growling. "Look Jimmy!", Soapy snarled, spatting out his name like it was a horrible tasting kind of food. "I don't know what your problem is but if you so much as THINK of hurting Nicky I have a friend named Dante who's a doberman and who will put you in your place. Yea, Nicky's a police dog, what of it? I swear if you touch him or look at him, even THINK abut doing any of those things, you're kibble! You understand?! At least police dogs have jobs and families. What do you have? Nothing! And what have you done that was so GREAT?! Let me answer that! NOTHING!" Soapy got in his face and snarled one more time then started panting. She had never snapped at anyone like that and deep down she knew this mutt deserved every insult coming to him. How dare he speak about her boyfriend like that. He better wise up, Soapy thought, walking past him, smacking his nose with her tail as she went. She let out a 'hmph!' and held her head and tail high as she trotted over to Keith and Naomi. She saw the bottle of holy water and sighed. "I thought you may have lost it Keith", said Soapy, picking it up in her jaws before placing it down between her paws as she sat. She looked toward Naomi, completely oblivious to Jimmy, Britney, and Poppy. "Find anything out Naomi?", Soapy asked, pawing at the ground impatiently.
(OOC-Eh, again not my best but WOAH! Soapy! Chill out! Seriously guys, if you mess with any of Soapy's friends she can become a little bizznotchy. That's an understatement. She's very protective of her friends and loved ones and this side of her is rarely, almost ever shown. Jimmy crossed the line though and Soapy had to tell him like it is. I actually very much like that in real life. Dunno why she's mad at Poppy and Britney though, probably because they know Jimmy and didn't stand up for her or Nicky. Also, thanks guys, I'm still upset but I feel a little better than I did yesterday)

Keith was more than a bit aggravated with Jimmy's speech of hatred toward police dogs as well, the dog beginning to growl lowly as he heard such words. His father was a brave dog, and to hear Jimmy speak in such ways was as if he was talking smack about Jake Wiles right in Keith's face. Luckily for Keith Soapy had already acted, hence why the German Shepherd-mix kept his maw shut. Had it not been this way, chances are the dog's jaws would have clamped around Jimmy's neck.
Sarai sighed to herself. She hated to see bickering and anger, especially when it, to her, was over nothing. "Look", she said, "I am not here to try and 'make waves'. I am only here to try and protect any who comes to this cemetery. If you must know, I cracked my whip because I was striking a shadow person, believe me or not..."
Naomi nodded to Soapy as Sarai explained herself, snapping out of her trance as quick as opening her eyes. "Well, here's what I had learned", she said softly. "...this fox spirit has heard rumors of bad dogs stealing and capturing souls, and not just earthbound spirits, but even the souls of the living, using this strange machine. Their boss intends to use the innate psychokinetic energy of the spirits to do something really, really bad. As in, make animals go wild and humans grow suddenly violent throughout the entire San Francisco area..." ~~~ Charlie grit his fangs as he stared at the being possessing Zoey. He had no idea who or what it was, but he was dying to know. He could not ID the voice at all, nor its mannerisms. "Mind giving me a name", he threatened, "Before I beat your face in?!"
He was enraged that a friend of Zoey's had been hurt for trying to help him, as well as for taking advantage of Zoey. He was unsure what would happen if he caused too much damage to Zoey's body, so as much as he wanted to find a weapon, he did not. Snarling like a starved wolf before its prey, Charlie ran on all fours toward 'Zoey' and leapt at her body, attempting to tackle her to follow up with a ground-and-pound assault.

Zoey shuffled to the left, but still was hit slightly by Charlie's attack, and was unsteady.
"Well pardon me, Charlie. It seems your old man memory has already forgotten about me. After all those years. Those 71 years." Zoey tried to position herself for an attack: getting behind the Sheppard to catch him off guard. "Just call me Jimael. From Carface's gang. If I recall, I gave you quite a bite on the leg that night so long ago. The same night I nearly drowned trying to get away from that sinking ship! The same night that you should've died!" Zoey made a lunge for Charlie's legs, snout ready to bite.
Meanwhile, Itchy was searching the kitchen for some large, gauze bandages. Aric seemed like a jerk, but he did not deserve to die trying to help Charlie. Itchy scrambled through the cabinets. Food. Food. Drinks. Food. Cobwebs. More food. Was there none in the entire joint? He noticed some paper towels sitting by the sink. That'll due.
Aric watched Charlie and Zoey duel, and he feared for Charlie's life. She's stronger than she looks. Be careful Charlie. Just as he thought he was to pass out from blood loss, Itchy came running back to him.
"Here, these'll at the very least slow the bleeding." Itchy whispered as he wrapped the towels around Aric's neck.
(OOC: Eh, I could have done better. And I've always thought that the dog who bites Charlie's leg in the climax of the first film, the one who's spirit has possessed Zoey, looked a lot like Otto from the Series.)

When Soapy stood up for Nicky, Britney looked on, completely horrified. Even Poppy's pupils dilated slightly in fear for Soapy. Jimmy was silent. Eerily... silent. "Soapy..." Britney whimpered. "I think you just made the worst mistake of you life..." Poppy then screeched with hysterical laughter. And she didn't stop. Jimmy's eyes flashed. Suddenly, a loud, even more blood curdling snarl escaped his throat. He looked savage, too angry for words. His eyes, full of hatred and anger... "Jimmy...? Jimmy, don't hurt her, she doesn't kn- JIMMY!" Jimmy reared up above Soapy, ready to attack. "WHAT'D YOU SAY TO ME?!" he yelled. "YOU PREPARED TO REPEAT THAT?! GO ON, I DARE YOU!" "JIMMY!" Britney grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and dragged him back, with all the energy she could muster. Jimmy struggled in her grip, barking savagely at poor Soapy. "I'LL KILL YOU AND YOUR PRECIOUS 'LIL BOYFRIEND! LET'S BRING IT ON, LOSER!" he screamed, lunging forward. "CALM YOURSELF!" Britney yelled back. Jimmy stopped struggling but was still snarling slightly. "Now, that was just MADNESS! As if I didn't WARN you, Soapy!" Britney snapped. "And don't think YOU'RE off the hook either, wise guy!" she snarled, addressing Jimmy once more. Poppy ended her laughter with an amused giggle. "I've got nothing..." Jimmy repeated, harshly and coldly. "Have I? well, not for long, as I'll have your NECK IN MY JAWS, YOU LITTLE-!" Jimmy went for Soapy's tail when she flicked it in his face. Britney grabbed him once more and shoved him back. "CHILL... THE HECK... OUT!" Britney warned him. "ALL OF YOU!" She sighed and looked down. "AND STOP SMILING, POPPY! IT ISN'T FUNNY!" Poppy frowned immediately. "So, this Dante guy...? Let's see him take on my pack, then" Jimmy said. "No, wait, just me. I'd like to meet this guy. Mark me words, his blood will be all over my mouth, wait... just you all wait!" Jimmy threatened. Deep inside, the words you have nothing bubbled over and over again in his stomach. Because he refused to show any other emotion, it was all transferred in a violent rage instead of sorrow. "Is having nothing so bad...?" Britney spoke, after remaining quiet, noticing Soapy ignoring her. "I have nothing... nothing... nothing you have everything a dog could need... I have no food, no one loves me like they love you..." Her voice was quivering and she tried not see John in her visions. "I want to leave." "Britney..." Poppy said, softly, glaring at Soapy then at Jimmy. Only, she seemed to throw a harsher glare at Jimmy. "I can't stay here a minute longer... no, not with you people..." Britney spat. "Three people I barely know, two people I THOUGHT were my friends-!" She cut herself off. She turned and stalked off. Poppy snarled at the others. "Happy?" she hissed before racing after her sister, who didn't get very far. She was curled up by one of the gravestones. Poppy approached it slowly and sat down slowly. "We don't need them, Britney..." she said, softly. "You have me and Dale, don't you?" "Dale? He has everything, doesn't he? Him too. And you... you're just a syco!" Britney muttered. "Yea, so... I didn't stand up for the guy who wanted to tear my guts out, in fact, I hope he gets it." Britney snarled but realized how cold she was being. She was technically turning into Jimmy... or worse... Scott. Jimmy was mad, yes. But Scott... Scott was just... ugh. Never in her life did Britney want to turn out like Scott. And she knew, when Soapy was saying that, she didn't really stand a chance. Not with Scott on Jimmy's side, even though Scott was often glad to clear Jimmy off. "I dunno, maybe I'm being silly..." "No" Poppy said, quickly. "No." She did not want to lose her sister to a pack of... of... outsiders. "No, they don't deserve someone like you! Good riddance!" Britney looked at her sister and shook her head. "I dunno... I'll hang around here for a bit..." she said. "I don't think I ever want to move anyway... I don't even think I want to be alive..." Britney trailed off. "No. I'm never eating again. It's the only answer..." "... Britney, no... it'll pass. Whatever it is, it will pass..." "I'm committing a slow, painful suicide to myself." Poppy was silent before she turned to the others, who were some feet away. "Happy? Happy now? She's deciding on a long, painful suicide. All because he lost his temper and she said the wrong thing!" Jimmy snarled at the comment and smirked at Soapy. "I'll admit, most'a this is my fault but I gotta hand it to ya... ya shouldn't have said that. Yenno how she feels 'bout life. Yenno she hates her life." He tutted. "Oh... well. Your loss, really." (OOC- Sorry for the depressing post. That's what I get for watching too much dramatic soap scenes. One particular scene always brings tear to my eye, which probably explains this. Don't worry, I'm sure Britney will come to her senses Ooooooh, syco Soapy!
