The boy was scared when he was pulled from the ground. He gripped her tail even harder, almost to the point of breacking it, but not quite. Then when he landed bakc on the ground, he was even more scared, he saw the creature lunge for the first creatures, and followed suit.
Fear gave boy steangth no mortal should ever have, especially not in his condition, and the adrenaline rush increased his already superhuman speed to devastating speeds.
The claws that served as his hands made their way from one human hand to another, severing all 4 hands before any one of them hit the ground, Then he turned back to see the oddly-shaped creature who he felt safe with behind him, staring at him, in the same place he last saw it before his assault on the cops.

Taela felt her jaw drop when the creature attacked the cops.
NOT GOOD! NOT GOOD! Her mind screamed at her. She quickly looked around. People were starting to gather, and they didn't look happy. The two cops were screaming in pain, and people were hesitant to come to their aid.
If they realize we're mutants, we're both dead! She thought. The last thing we need is a riot when I can't fly. But as she looked at the gathering crowd, she knew they were headed for a riot. A tv store across the way was broadcasting the news, a follow-up story on a previous attack on St. Louis. One of the men, a brutish looking fellow, looked at the news, and then the two standing in the street.
"THEY'RE MUTANTS!" He shouted. When Taela heard this, she cringed. Shouts began to echo throughout the street. The crowd was very quickly turning into a riot. Taela froze, not knowing what to do.

(hmm, car might be good right about now,)
Teh boy didn't understand, teh safe one seemed to be afraid, and the others were quickly gathering closer to him. He was afraid. Very, very afraid. He crouched down low to the ground, and tried to shrink away into the safe creature. He didn't know what to do, but he knew these things were bad, very bad.
Another thing with bright lights appeared from behind a building, but this one was in the air! There were symbols on teh side of this thing, but he could not make any sense of any of them. Then the TVs turned to a different view, one of an arial view of teh two mutants, two bleeding cops running away, and two dozen other people getting angry, fast.
(hmm, any idea on how we can get out of this now? i mean, some of the older mutants should have heard this by now, so, news and all.)

(ooc: a lot's going on. We're probably on our own)
Taela noticed the creature start to crouch and start to come back to her. A helicopter roared overhead. With a glance to the TV, Taela cursed to herself.
Great. News coverage. Just what we need. She leapt back when someone threw a glass bottle at her. The bottle shattered, the shards barely missing her. She growled and swung her head back and forth, trying to see where the next attack would come from. The crowd was growing rapidly. More police cars came screeching in, lights flashing brightly.
"Mutants!" "They're gonna try and wreck this city like they did St Louis!" Shouts echoed, growing to a fever pitch.
St. Louis? Oh, no. They're rioting! Taela thought. Her tail ached, and the pain of remaining in the Demon Fox form and wanting to change to Dragon Form combined with it started to make her mind swirl. She needed to get out fast, before she blacked out.
"Leave us alone! We just want to leave." She tried shouting to the crowd. "We don't want trouble, let us leave!"

( yeah, and they just "ahh, ok, sorry about that, well, cya around then." right? lol)
The boys midn went blank, he was running on pure instinct, no thought, jsu treactions to everything.
He saw a brown, conical item flying his way, then felt a cold smoot substance in his left claw, then saw the brown object shatter on teh attackers head. It was then that he realized he ahd caught the object, and thrown it back, perfectly.
BAM!
A rain on cold shards scattered around him, some peircing into him, but not painfully, not by now. he was beyond pain,
Something yelped in pain from teh back of the riot, it took half of the blast in the back of its head.
It fell dead.
The crowd turned around, startled by this new event, and saw another creature like them, holding a long metal object in one hand, raised up to head level.
"He's a Mutie supporter!" someone yelled out, but even if the boy had been able to make sense of the words, he was too far away to hear it distincly.
A block down the road, teh freak of nature was running at what must have been 20 mpg.

Taela looked around frantically. With all the new commotion, she was lost and confused. All she knew, was that she was hurt, the creature had gone homicidal, and she was facing a mob. Her wing hurt too much to move or shift. She heard the shout about a supporter, and turned to where the shout had come from. Her mind raced, trying to find a means of escape. Another man from the crowd drew a gun and shot at Taela. The bullet hit her right foreleg, shattering the bone and leaving a gaping hole. Taela screamed in pain, sounding more animal than human. Without thinking, she used her powers to reknit the bone, but she could do nothing for the flesh wound. She spotted a small gap in the crowd where she could get to a clear street. She tugged on the creature's wrist again with her tail, but did not grab it as she then took off for the gap, snarling to try to scare the people away from her.

(homicidal? i threw a beer bottle at him, concusion, not dead)
The boy felt teh beast touch him again, and reasured. That is, until his two other mutant powers decided to reawaken themselves.
First, he became aware of the basil smell of his own mutant speed, then the cinamon of the shapechanger next to him, and lastly, a burnt smell as his wing acted out.
Every emotion he had felt since waking up in the government lab came out at once, sending massive electrical waves out from his remaining wing and the two inch stub of the other one. Every thought the humans might have had about following died then, as half of them fell screaming to the ground, the helicopter simply faltered, and fell to crash into the street between the two and their predators, and the remainign creatures took a massive static shock through their entire bodies.
(btw, i still need at least for you to walk me to mansion, no real description needed for the way there, but, in my state, i doubt if i could find a hotdog stand if it was five feet to my left, despite however much Phat might try to push me outa the way.)

(yet. You've got a history from what I hear, dude)
Taela tripped and fell when the static shock hit her. She tumbled for a couple of feet, and landed hard on her injured leg.
"OW! What the heck....?" She lifted her head to see the helicopter crash. "Oh no." She struggled to her feet and hurried over to the wreckage. Within seconds she was pulling out the pilot of the helicopter out, being careful to aviod injuring him further. She knew the other mutant was to blame for the shock and the crash. Once she had pulled out the other occupants of the helicopter and pulled them away from the burning wreckage, she turned and angrily stalked over to the creature.
"WHAT the HECK do you think you're doing?!? You could have KILLED someone! Bloody idiot! Let's get out of here before you cause any more trouble." Taela growled. She wrapped her tail around his wrist again and pulled, a bit harder than she meant to, and began to limp towards the gap in the crowd once again.

The boy was scared now, a huge metal shreiking monster kept attacking the ground, teh safe one was making angry noises at him, and teh creatures he had just almost gotten away from were beginning to come back at him, but only a few were left.
He fell limp, a full 130 lbs of dead weight crumpled to the ground. And his wings began to rapidly flip colours, sporadically spewing light, fire, sparks, minor electrical beams along it and a few inches out from were it lay, his face finally looked almost normal, as his eyes closed to hide his disturbed brown eyes.
( a history? me! whos been talking? I only killed about 5000 people in a few seconds! whats that? how is that a record?)

(ooc: Dude, that's not good. If I did that, Taela'd be in deeeeeeeeep trouble.)
Taela slipped when she suddenly found the creature wasn't moving. Standing shakily, she turned.
"Are you coming or should I leave you?" She removed her tail for fear of being injured.
"Get up! We've got to get out of here NOW!" She nudged the creature with her snout. She looked around at the crowd, hoping that she would see a familiar face.

(oh, yay. A LITTLE HELP HERE, ANYONE???)
Taela sighed. The creature was out cold.
"Oh yay. I can barely walk and now I've got to drag HIM too? Lord, what have I done to deserve this torture?" Taela growled. Drawing in her uninjured wing to add to her tail, she wrapped it around the creature's torso and began to drag him, glad she'd taken to strength training before coming to the school. She moved slowly, but the crowd was too concerned with themselves and the helicopter to care that the two were fleeing. Despite her pain, she dragged the creature with her out of the city and into the surrounding woods.
