Finbar walked in amazement through the abandoned streets, this ghost town that he'd stumbled across fascinated him. He wondered about its history - where had all the people gone and why? Perhaps it had been the work of the Fay ... no surely not they were pranksters but not necasarily cruel. Yet it couldnt have been to fear of demons or other dark creatures, as there wasnt enough decay or destruction here. But then where was everybody ... surely he couldnt be the only one here. |

This had to be a joke, sending her out to a ghost town like this. Clare was beginning to suspect that even though her employers could bind spirits and put them to work, they were otherwise inept. She was an overworked employee working for incompetent bosses. it made her seek out an escape even harder now, get her own soul freed from slavery and just ... go. Clare didn't know what would happen afterward, but even death was better than this. Walking through the dead streets, she couldn't find a single sign of life or death. Well except for a few rats ducking in and out of corners to eat the bugs and who knew what else. She sighed as she turned a corner exiting into a street. |

A figure up ahead caught his attention, at first he wasnt sure if his eyes were playing tricks on him, the mysterious figure didnt seem csolid enough to be real. Cautiously he advanced a little closer - she was real alright. Finbar watched her a moment, "Hey!" he called out to her, curious to find out if she was a local or like himself only passing through. Perhaps this place wasnt as deserted as he'd previously thought. Raising his hands in a gesture of goodwill, he moved a little closer. Pip who'd been contently curled up in Finbar's bag, poked his fuzzy little head out. His masters voice had woken him, curious little animals are ferrets. |

She jumped as a voice rang out across the empty street. Turning quickly to the sound of it, her hands fell to her weapon, but stopped seen an unarmed man sanding there. She waited a moment, making sure he wasn't playing some kind of trick. But at last decided he was of no harm to her. And if he was, well, he didn't have a weapon, and hers had quite a reach. She could handle it if things went ... bad. Lowering her hands away from her weapon, she nodded in understanding. "Hello." |

Pip chittered excitedly, and scrambled out of the bag and up Finbar's arm so that he was perched on his master's shoulder. Finbar smiled at his ferrets antics, nosy creature. "Im Finbar and this is Pip" the girl was quite striking with her blue hair streaked with black and those khaki eyes, but mostly it was how pale she was that intrigued him. But what was she doing out her all alone, he eyed the scythe warily, not sure if he really wanted to know the answer. "So then ... what brings you here?" |

Ah, a ferret. She was familiar with the beasts. Clare just hoped that the people she encountered this time was not like the lady she'd met at the beach just weeks ago. How one could travel with a whole army of big cats and wolves was beyond her. She watched the little animal and its antics with a brief smile. "Clare." Noticing the wary glance to her weapon, she brought her hands far away from it. "I was just investigating but it seems there is nothing to study here." |

Hopping around on the building roofs, exploring the city for a sign of life, Kangaroo is stealthily scanning the area. Suddenly a voice is heard, shouting Hey! Startled, Kangaroo falls of the building and lands harshly on the ground. Luckily, nobody was close enough to hear, but with his heightened sense of hearing, he could still pinpoint the exact location of the two people and their exact words. He slowly sneaks around the buildings and is now within about ten feet of the two people. Kangaroo then thinks to himself; The man, with a ferret; and although he is muscularly built, he doesn't look too combat worthy should trouble arise. And the other, a female, with a scythe, doesn't look to be... how can i put it... doesn't look natural, but how i can't quite put my finger on it. I guess i just sit and wait to see what unfolds.... |

Finbar relaxed a little as she took a more neutral stance. "Investigating anything interesting?" he glanced around, "like why this place is so deserted?" he'd heard the stories about this place, but until arriving here he'd always dismissed them as being rumours, but now Finbar wasnt so sure. Pip figeted on his masters shoulder, torn between wanting to sniff and examine the stranger, or to go and investigate a slight sound it'd heard earlier. A scent in the breeze alerts him to another presence. Chittering and squeaking loudly, the fuzzy little creature makes a dash towards the unknown presence. |

She sighed, looking somewhat disappointed. "No. Nothing. Just rats." Though it was her 'job' so to speak, she hated traveling all the way to a place only to hit a dead end. And she wasn't that good at conversation, so benefited little from meeting people. "I don't know. And there seems to be no text or history surrounding it." Mysterious as they come, this town was. Well, there was no point dwelling on it. She turned as the ferret ran off. "Um .... is he supposed to do that?" |

As the ferret got within reach Kangaroo lunged at it and picked it up. Stepping out from around the corner he walks up to the two people and offers it to the man. I believe this is yours sir? I'm sorry for startling him, but I was alone out here and heard your voice. Just happens to be the first voice I've heard in a couple days. And if i may ask, what brings you two out here in the first place? he says, also gesturing to the woman standing with them as well. Oh! And by the way, the name is Roo. |

For a moment Finbar just stared at him, taking in the golden eyes and silver hair, but Pip's unhappy squeaking shifted Fin's attention back to the furry creature. "Thanks" he took the chittering little creature back, which promptly ran back up to its usual position on his sholder. "Roo, well I'm Finbar - and this is Pip" he indicated to his ferret, "well I'm just passing through," he smiled and relaxed a little, sure Roo was different, but he seemed friendly enough, and besides Finbar himself wasnt as human as he seemed. He didnt introduce Clare or give an explanation for her - it just wasnt his place, if she wanted to share her business then she would do so. OOc - sorry for the delay Edited by Finbar, Jun 10 2009, 08:47 PM.

She wasn't used to people just randomly appearing out of nowhere. But it seemed to be common in Avalon. Sometimes she did wish she could go back to the old life of a simple village girl.... But, that was hard when you were -ahem- dead. "Um... Clare. And I was just investigating this place because I heard there were ghosts here. But I found nothing but rats and bugs." |

OOC - Im assuming Kangaroo has left the topic - apologies if he hasnt, by all means rejoin if you return. But im going to edit him out for the moment. Finbar watched Roo's reaction, and listened to the stranger as he gave his reasons for continuing on his way. "Goodbye then Roo" he smiled and nodded at him, before turning his attention back to Clare. "So you were ghost hunting?" he asked, an eyebrow raised quizingly, and a smirk on his lips. A cold breeze blew by them, making Pip shiver and squeak in protest. "Are you cold? You can borrow my coat if you are" He looked about him, so what now? |
