You finally arrived at the library from New Dawn. You were selected by the researchers there to find any information you can find on alternative power sources, be it nuclear, solar, wind power, or hydrolic power. Many of the books were destroyed upon p-day when ferals ran rampant from the beginning. Shredded peices of books and journals scattered everywhere. The smell of urine and mating in the air.

Harbringer cocks her fragmentation gun, looking around and taking in a deep breath, noting at the heavy smells "Whew, that's a smell i can all too sadly relate too." she murrs out, standing ready. The vixen lifts her firearm and begins scanning the area, making sure the place is secure.

Kendrakkin walks in behind Harbringer her Halberd held in a tight nervous grip her ears pricked listening intensly for any movments her black cloak draggin lightly on the ground behind her, "dang. my tails closed and i can still taste the air... discusting." she shakes her head lightly

Kattie draws her laser pistol and takes a cautious step as she surveys the area, her senses tingling as she waits for something to jump out, "Yep, all too relatable...though compared to some libraries, not that different from before...just...messier."

a purplish puddle moves around the perimiter of the room observing its surroundings before taking form in a secluded corner of the room. A Goo Girl take form of a young lady in the corner with a veluptuous body and cold blue eyes that seem empty of emotion. No material items can be seen on this person. The Goo Girl yawns, and peers at the other beings in the room, keeping a close eye on their movments, but not moving or speaking.

One of the bookshelves rattles, some old, shredded book covers falling from the shelves. A creeking from the wood floorboards indicates movement nearby. Or perhaps the floor was settling with your entry into the seemingly abandoned building.

Harbringer yelps, jumping back and cocking her frag weapon. "Keep quiet..." she whispers, suddenly crouching low and holstering it to pull up her crossbow "Not a sound, from anyone..." she explains "Or we're feral meat."

Kendrakkin lowers her ears and lightly steps a bit further from the group just enough to be able to weild her Pole-arm without lopping of a friendly's arm or something. she looks to Harbringer with a light nod before slipping her hood on for added protection the cloth of her cloak reflecting light gently in a uncharacteristic way

Kattie turns her head to the sound and halting her movement, her eyes locked on the rattling bookcases. Quietly nodding to the vixen as she takes moves to take aim on the first signs of hostility, hoping that they can get a few shots on any ferals before things get out of hand.

"For a 'civil' person, that was pretty offencive hun," The goo girl speaks as she is clearly offended by the shadow vixens words. She moves over to the bookshelf and starts to pick up the books anaylsingthe books that she can as she as she pushes them aside. "How about some help?" she asks.

The air becomes still around you, the scurrying of feet having quietened. You feel eyes on you from all directions. Even the passage you came from seems to feel uneasy as if something was close, and growing closer.

Harbringer lowers her crossbow to talk to Youshou "Miss, please wait until there's not a feral wanting to devour or rape you before pulling up those books..." she whispers, ears twitching like mad, rotating to the sounds of the locations of scuffling "Ready up, i think they're on us!"

Kendrakkin stands up taller legs spread in a steady stance her halberds head closer to the ground ready to strike at a moments notice. she seems to have her eyes closed her ears are pricked and the tip of her tail shows from underneath the robe its opened lightly tasting and smelling the air around her

Kattie cocks a brow as she listens to the goo girl and chuckles, "I suppose so.", she replies before slowly walking towards the liquid woman

Kattie cocks a brow as she listens to the goo girl and chuckles, "I suppose so.", she replies before slowly walking towards the liquid woman her pace stopping again as the things suddenly become tense, as she finds herself wishing for her other senses. "Huh, well that isn't good. Guess, it's time to have some fun"

"Well, Im not concerned at all, you see, im not the one waving a gun about, with fear in their eyes in a hostile stance. THAT is what will get you into trouble in these parts," Youshou explains. While se is talking she continues to pick up the books and place them on the shelves.

A door slams from the back corner of the library, a scream for help being heard as it sounds like someone stumbles into a bookshelf, which falls over against something with a loud crash " He.... Help me... Please.. Somebody! Anybody!" birds flutter from some of the bookshelves and out the skylight above.

Harbringer raises her crossbow "Go time. That person needs help, we all can hear that...." she murrs, padding off to go check and see who needs help. The vixen motins for the others to come as she yips "Do not worry, sir or maddam....both...neither, We are here to help!"

Kendrakkin shakes her head lightly before following at an even pace finding the bookshelves and what not a bit to close together for her long weapon so she sheaths it and pulls the sleaves of her cloak back a bit showing of jagged lightly translucent obsidian gauntlets tipped with sharp black claws and small spikes on the knuckles, she calls after the reckless vixen just loud enough for her to hear, "you dont think it could be a trap or something? you know feral tend to talk to you know..."

Kattie gives a sarcastic nod, "And that's why we have guns...because you can't go ten feet without something happening. Let's hope it's a simple problem.", she says with a sigh before dashing off after to help whomever it is, though truly hoping the problem is as simple as nearly being crushed and not a bunch of a lustful ferals. "I doubt it's a trap, though if it is...ehh, I've been through worse.", she says catching up to the others.

Youshou looks up, but not really concerned nor caring about the request for help, yet curious. "Suppose I have nothing better to do, best hope these people don't do anything stupid." she mutters to herself. The makes her way towards them, following behind the group about 10 feet, observing.

Around the corner there is what appears to be a hermaphrodite wolf in lab clothes. Hir groin completely exposed from the shreds of hir clothing, as well as hir coat in complete desiray, exposing hir. Hir fur soaked. Shi smelled of urine and sex. Shi could be seen pushing a large bookcase in front of the door she seemed to have came from, turning to you " S.. Someones here?... F.. Finaly.. Some help! Please.. Help me get this bookcase in front of the door! They are right behind me!"

Harbringer pads slowly over to the hermaphrodite wolf, lowering her weapon before holstering it. The vixen lowers herself gently and offers to help the lupine with her work. "Come on, it will work better if more help." she yips reassuringly before looking to the others "Someone cover us while we get this thing moving!" she chirps "Either get to pushing or defending.."

Kendrakkin nods softly and shrugs pulls her halberd back out sticking the spear like tip into the ground leaving it standing straigh upside down before standing at the ready, "ill gaurd you move it. at this point they would be on us in a matter of seconds and guns are going to be pretty useless that close to much friendly fire." she turns her attention back to watching just about everywhere

Kattie continuse running up behind the others as the wolf asks for aid. Pausing for moment, she takes stock of the situation and holsters her pistol...then chuckles as she decides to take advantage of the gladiator body the nanites have gifted her at the moment and pushes against the bookcase with all her might, muscles rippling as she hopes to end this soon. "I think I've got this"

Youshou sighs as she enters the room, "Move please," as she move over to the shelf and with an outstretched hand she extenders her arm to cover the side of the book case for leverage and forces it over with one push. "Seems like you angered some natives did you?"

The wolf steps back from the bookcase as it is moved, falling to hir knees and panting havily " I... I came.. Researching... What I could from... The fragments of the books here. When I got ambushed and draged into the basement... They.. Smelled I was in heat... I couldn't stop them... I knew I should not have come here alone..." hir ears flatten atop hir head as shi shakes it " They used me.... Both ways.. I could hardly move.. I barely got out of there!..."

Harbringer leans down and decides to comfort the herm to the best of your abilities "Well, be glad you're fine now. None of us will hurt you, despite what we may say..." she murrs calmly, placing a paw gently on hir shoulder "Now, once this is all over, we can all have a brew on me.." she exclaims, slowly standing and offering a paw to the depressed wolf.

Kendrakkin scratchs her head and looks at Harbringer with a shake of her head, "guess you were right. wasnt a trap good job. hurry and get her travel capable so we can get out of here. a bookshelf wont really hold off a group of ferals for very long.."she leans her halberd against it like a kickstand leaving her tail wrapped tightly around it so she has no chance of loseing it if a sedden retreat is needed, "so anyone going to question her on what shes found out? or is interogation for a later time?"

Kattie frowns upon hearing the sad tale, though knowing that most of them had likely had a similar moment. Smiling lightly at the vixen as she comforts the herm wolf, she nods quietly and retrieves her medkit before kneeling down next to hir. "Let's get you patched up...and maybe, you can let us in on what you were researching. We were coming to do some ourselves, but didn't get all that far."

Youshou ignores the commotion between the other people in the room and keeps and eye on the door and the bookcase being blocked.

The wolf, as they are being bandaged, breaths heavily as shi tries to catch hir breath and shakes hir head softly " I... I lost it... My journal... It had everything in it... Book scraps.. My notes.. Everything... I lost it down there... I cant go back... I tried to keep it on me... But I tripped... I'm not even sure where I lost it.. I had to get out of there." shi curls hir tail between hir legs as shi sobs softly

Harbringer sighs, stroking the wolf gently "It's okay, let the people saving you worry about your work." she whispers before looking back to the group "I suggest we pick partners and spread out, one to search and the other to stand guard for the other." She explains, pointing to the scattered papers "I'll see if i can't comfort our poor wolfie more." The vixen looks back and wraps an arm around the wolf cautiously "You're safe now. Anything you need, just give a ding."

Kendrakkin frowns and shakes her head a bit eyeing the guns two of the group members are toting around, "bad idea. to many corners around here and to much risk of ambush i dont want any friendly fire. i think we should stick together even if its slower its safer.."

Kattie nods to the vixen before turning her gaze to the wolf, "We'll get it taken care of you. Just rest, you're safe now.", she says in a soft, soothing tone before standing up. "I am somewhat inclined to agree, even if we don't use guns...friendly fire tends to happen no matter what...probably safer to go together...or at least mostly together. Might be a good idea to leave someone to keep this place locked down the best they can."

"I'll stay here and keep an eye on her, be careful and try not to kill anyone or anything."

Youshou gurgles, "I'll stay here and keep an eye on her, be careful and try not to kill anyone or anything."

The wolf shakes hir head slowly " Please... Don't let them get me again... I can't take it anymore... It was too much... Too many.." shi whimpers softly, ears flat on hir head " E.. Especially..." shi cant seem to bring hirself to finish.

Harbringer decides to sit next to the wolf, cocking her frag launcher and causing it to hum eerily "You guys go find the journal notes. I'll stay, cover the door and keep miss wolfie here company." she yips in an authorative tone. Gently, she strokes the wolf's ears "Don't worry. I'm here for you. Those guys will collect the notes and i'll make sure you're safe....I'v had protection contracts before." she assures the wolf, giving a foxy smile "Now, how can i make this better?" she asks, leaning in with an ear for an answer.

Kendrakkin sighs shaking her head her tail unwrapping from the makeshift kickstand before she points at it, "ill go but make sure you dont lose this thing. i dont have a replacment for it" she addresses Kattie for the first time since entering the library, "guess that means your with me. stay behind me and shoot over my shoulder if you have to, if we are ambushed just worry about yourself i can hold my own against ferals" she gestures for her to follow before slowly walking of pointing at her weapon, "remember dont lose that."

Kattie blinks a few times at the authorative bark from the vixen and looks over at Kendra, "Don't worry, I've always been a good shot, so let's hope for the best...and expect the worse...that usually works for me.". Cracking her knuckles, she takes a deep breath and looks to her partner, making sure she is ready before the step into what may be a very bad situation.

The two leave through to where the wolf had apparently came from, leaving Harb and the wolf on their own. The passage is dark, and devoid of light. The sound of water dripping can be heard echoing in the distance. A strong musky smell drifting past the two, thick in the air. Meanwhile the wolf rested against a bookshelf, looking at Harb softly, ears twitching on hir head as the group split up their different ways " They.. Don't even know whats down there..."

Harbringer sighs, patting the wolf "Can you explain what you mean?" she asks in a gentle voice "W-what's down there?" she continues, looking into the wolf's eyes and trying to decipher some sort of hint "What did you run into?""

Kendrakkin leads down the hall. being part feline helping immensly with navigating the dark halls, she holds her 9 foot tail up lightly behind her bumping it on Katties hand, "if you cant see grab on. and just listen the best you can" she whispers quietly "er.. just dont squeeze id like to still be able to smell..." so far very little seems to be disturbing the silence other then the constant drip dripping of water

Kattie stays behind Kendra and lightly grips her tail while silently cursing the dark. Continuing and ensuring to step lightly as to not draw the attention of the ferals the herm was talking about earlier. Meanwhile she listens and tries to use her eyes the best she can to spot the missing journal or pages, truly hoping to find them before something worse.

The pair wanders deep into the corridor, a set of stairs leading down before them as they go deeper into the library. The smell is thicker coming from below, as well as the sound of shuffling feet. Or paws? Something was down there, and it was not small, by the sound of it.
