<div align="center"><strong>Janet</strong></div><br/>"Wine?" Janet asked, thoughtfully. She'd never been much of a gambler. She also still thought Oren might be a little daft in the head, but she was beginning to feel a bit more comfortable around him.<br/><br/>"I'll do you one better," she proclaimed. "I still have whiskey in Pa's old liquor cabinet. Home made too." She'd never been much of a liquor drinker. She only had a beer every once in awhile on special occassions. But she was willing to make a wager with this man. Other worlds just simply did not exist. Everyone knows that.<br/><br/>As she drove the massive truck, bumping and rocking over the dirt road beneath, she saw the sun peak over the horizon. It must be much later than she'd thought! Stephanie must be scared to death, wondering where Janet was and when she was going to pick her up!<br/><br/>She barreled toward the road into town and was met with a security road block. She saw it in the distance but was afraid to approach. The road block scared her and only served to make her want to find her sister that much more. But with Oren in the car, she didn't want to chance a delay with police questioning. So, instead, she made the executive decision to find a short cut.<br/><br/>After awhile of driving around, Janet began to get nervous. "I - I think I'm lost," she finally admitted. About that time, a weird concrete driveway came into view. "There! Maybe someone there can point us back on the right path." Janet veared the monster of a truck up the subsequent gravel pathway.<br/><br/><div align="center"><strong>Phaerbryn</strong></div><br/>Watching the fight, impressed at the skill of both involved, Phaerbryn momentarily wishes for some popcorn - or at least her half eaten vanilla ice cream. All of a sudden a huge panther jumped out of nowhere!<br/><br/>"Holy shit!" Bryn exclaimed, nearly choked, and withdrew her Browning within seconds, aiming for the cat. She had just gotten the cat'd head in her sights when it bent his head and merely licked Kyle. Bryn breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her weapon, still keeping it out and ready just in case.<br/><br/>Bryn started walking over to Kyle after the fight but stopped, dumbfounded, mouth hanging wide open as Kyle's armor just disappeared. This down to earth, highly logical and rational woman had seen just about the most fantastical, illogical, and irrational events that she could possibly handle for one day.<br/><br/><div align="center"><strong>Viviana</strong></div><br/>Viviana watched the fight with fascination. She had heard much about the Drow and their fighting abilities. The spoon of strawberry ice cream absently reached her lips over and over again as she studied every move of each warrior. She concentrated on sizing each up. Their strengths and weaknesses. These fighters put her in a state of awe.<br/><br/>A state of awe, that is, until the giant cat leapt out of nowhere. Viviana sprang to her feet, suddenly much more fascinated with this new emergence. The spoon met her mouth once more, but sadly, was empty. She looked down at her cup and realized she'd finished the last of her iced cream. She frowned but quickly placed the cup at her feet and rushed over to the cat. It now rested at Giselle's feet and nothing made her happier than inspecting this wonderous beast. The fur was silkenly soft and it smelled of forests and deer. It's heavily strengthened muscles were coiled, showing brightly under its black well groomed coat. Viviana's hands slid in wonderment over this creature, petting and scartching and cooing at it.<br/><br/>Her frown creased her face as the cat disappeared at the Drow's orders. She looked up in confusion as she had not bee listening to the conversation.
