Lex heard the front door open and a towering male wolf walked in, probably the man that was either Yumi's father or brother, but he seemed too young to be her father. Regardless, he took one look at Lex and freaked out, just as Yumi thought he would. This was why she kept him a secret from him.<br/><br/>Yumi jumped between them and thankfully so. The man raged and looked like he would rip Lex apart. His heart jumped to his throat and he backed away, stumbling to fall back on the couch. With a snap of her fingers, Yumi summoned her pet and was pulling Jessica and himself into the kitchen while he heard barks and snarls behind him. When it died down. Lex dared to look behind him.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Yumi what is this?! your protecting them now?! there bad remember?!!!" he said standing up and using the wall to keep himself standing. "Jess I think its time for you to head home...Yumi I want this human out of my house now! or I will take matters in my own hands" he said as he staggered to the couch.</span><br/><br/>Lex turned to Jess. She looked terrified, yet she suddenly grabbed his hand and glared at Yumi's brother.<br/><br/>"What the hell do you know about Humans, Jey?! It's only TV and Movies that portray them as being evil! You didn't even bother to ask him! He just got here and already you've scared the shit out of him! He has no idea what's going on or where he is and you come in wanting to kill him just because Hollywood picked their race to be the 'bad guys'?!" She growled briefly then yanked on Lex's arm towards the stairs, "Come on, Lex. My parents aren't home. You can hide out over at my place until we can figure something out. It looks like you're not welcome here now that the 'master of the house' is home. Yumi, you can come over anytime."<br/><br/>Lex simply nodded and allowed himself to be dragged for a moment, but stopped to turn to the towering man in the living room.<br/><br/>"I'm sorry I caused you people so much trouble. I'll leave now." he said, then continued on upstairs after the fox girl.<br/><br/>He had to be helped across the roof of the garage, the stairs taking alot out of him. Now in pain again he nearly fell into her room through the window. With Jessica's help, he was able to make it to the lower bunk of her bunk bed which she cleared of plush toys for him to lie down. With him comfortable she sat backwards on her computer chair and sighed as she leaned on the backrest, putting her chin on her folded arms.<br/><br/>"Sorry about that. We didn't think he would come back like that. He must have forgotten something." Jess said, "Still, he didn't have to freak out like that. He's just very overprotective of his sister."<br/><br/>"I don't blame him. If I came home to find my sister in the same room as a monster I'd flip out too." he said, then he went silent, turning to look at the wall.<br/><br/>"You have a sister?" Jess asked, "How is she?"<br/><br/>"She died a few years ago." He muttered, "All I have left is a picture on my phone..." He began patting his pockets and panic struck when he couldn't find it, "Where is it?! I lost it!" Jess jumped up and fished it out of her pocket, handing it to him quickly.<br/><br/>"Here! Calm down! It's here!" she said. Lex breathed a sigh of relief.<br/><br/>"Thanks." he said, flipping it open. He noticed the picture album was left open, "You were looking at the pictures?"<br/><br/>"Sorry. We were curious." She said, embarrassed, "You are an Alien after all."<br/><br/>"Am I?" he asked, "Well I suppose its all a matter of perspective." It took a moment for Jessica to understand what he was saying.<br/><br/>"You've never seen a Feral before, have you?" She asked, surprised, "I see. So we're both in the same boat."<br/><br/>"Is that what you're called?" Lex asked, pushing his phone in his jeans pocket, "I've never heard of a Feral before. As far as I know, there are no planets close to Earth that support life, let alone a planet full of Ferals."<br/><br/>"Wait, what?" she asked, "You're from Earth?"<br/><br/>"Yeah. You've heard of it?" he asked.<br/><br/>"Lex, this is Earth." She said, "You're from this planet."<br/><br/>"This is Earth?" He asked, confused, "It can't be. I mean it's very similar to what Earth should be, but everyone is a Feral. You said Hollywood is where movies are made here? Its the same as my Earth."<br/><br/>"There are no Humans here. I'm sure of that." she said, deep in thought, "How were you sent here if not by space ship?" Lex had to think. It was that girl who sent him here, but how? She pushed him, he fell near two stories and landed on a pile of boxes. He was standing firmly on the ground when he was pushed, but then again, he didn't see what he fell on behind him. Only one explanation came up in his thoughts. She was telling people she was a Witch of sorts.<br/><br/>"I think it was Magic." Lex said. There was a short pause as she stared at him in disbelief, then started laughing. When he didn't laugh with her, she slowly stopped seeing the seriousness on his face.<br/><br/>"Magic? Seriously? Is that even real?" she asked.<br/><br/>"It's the only explanation. I went to see a classmate who wanted to talk to me. We talked then she pushed be backwards. I fell through the ground, down two stories, and landed on boxes. Yumi found me after that." he said, "She told people she was a Witch. Everyone ignored her and she basically was shunned."<br/><br/>"A Witch sent you here?" She asked, "Why?"<br/><br/>"She was going on about how I never socialize and keep to myself. She told me I wanted to be different inside and to stand out from everyone else to be noticed. She said I didn't have the courage to make myself heard or something." he said, "It was weird, but thinking about it now I think she was right."<br/><br/>"Well you are certainly different than everyone else now." Jessica said, "Maybe she sent you here to teach you a lession? Maybe you need to gain more self confidence?"<br/><br/>"Great place to send me for that! The people here want to kill me or are afraid of me."<br/><br/>"I'm not afraid of you or want to hurt you. Yumi feels the same way. We want to help." she said shyly. With her sensitive large ears she could hear the shouts and arguments next door. It sounded like the front door was open slightly, probably because Jey didn't get a chance to close it. Lex heard some of it too, but pretended not to. He smiled and nodded, closing his eyes for a moment. Lying down was making him sleepy again.<br/><br/>"Thank's Jess." he said.
