Dakota was still looking up in the sky, when he asked his question. She nearly choked trying to hold back the laughter. It was like ringing bells, and she frowned. "Hobo's are attracted to me because they think I'm pretty and should use that fact to get off the streets. They don't think I have the talent to be a street rat," She smirked, tapping her fingers on the concrete. "Why did you have the Whitecoats bring me back to life?"

Fox chuckled at her retrot, happy he had made her laugh. "Well, your a pretty could street fighter in my book, you nearly killed me with those moves!" He said, rubbing the spots she had hit him to remind her. Fox froze when she asked him why he had revived her and grasped for words, "I-i just dont know. Maybe it was because i would fell horrible about killing such an amazing fighter as yourself. Maybe it was because of something else....." Fox said, blushing slightly at the thought. Could he have a crush on Dakota? Or something more? Him, the guy who refused to be more than friends with anyone and wouldnt resist the urge to a fight?

Dakota froze. She was a quiet for a moment. Did Fox have a... Have feelings for her? It wasn't improbable, but the fact that he stuttered for words, and his emotions were roaring, it was kind of hard to miss. She glanced towards him. "Are you trying to be fresh with me?" She acused, standing quickly, and looking down upon his sitting form.

Fox snorted, "Me? Nope." Fox said, glancing away from Dakota. Curse her and her emotion reading crap. "Why would i want to get fresh anyways?" He asked, looking up at her, "Im an eraser and your a bird-kid, its impossible for me to get fresh with you."

Dakota glared, still not convinced. "It's... Happened... Before," She replied softly, adverting her gaze over the horizon. She frowned. "Nevermind, it's stupid." She shook her head, and sat down a few feet away, lost in thought.

Fox frowned when she said its happened before, turning her gaze away from him, and sat down a few feet away from him. Fox was going to hate himself for asking this question but... "Its happened to you hasn't it?" He said, "My question is with who and when?"

Dakota sighed, and curled into a ball, resting her forhead on her knees. "When I was eleven, with this Eraser kid. I can't remember the name," Her breathing seemed staggered, as if she were fighting back tears. "It doesn't matter. It's over and done with," She said quietly, turning her back on him.
ooc: Lol, have Fox try and comfort her. xDD

Now, fox wasent used to people crying, but something told him to scoot over and wrap his arm around Dakota, "Do you want to talk about it?" Fox asked, pulling Dakota closer.

Dakota sighed, but felt Fox's arm drape itself around her shoulder. She felt the instinct urge to pull away, to run away and hide, but another feeling came up. It felt... Good. To know that somebody cared. She hadn't had that feeling in a long time. She smiled faintly, looking at him curiously. "I've already told you. He's' the reason while I was fat for nine months," She said softly, looking at the sky with pleadingly eyes. She sighed, shutting off her senses to the parts that weren't meant to be heard. She was going to go with this, without the hassle of powers.

Fox chuckled, "I thought so, and I don't think your kid would appreciate you calling him body fat." he looked down at Dakota to see her looking up at the sky with pleading in her eyes, and he shook her gently, "You sure you OK? Because you dont look it."

Dakota sighed, pulling away from the comfort he provided. It was a gentle move, but she didn't want to be in that position any longer. She sighed once more. "I'm... I'm fine," She swallowed. "He's dead though, so I don't think he'll mind," She glanced away, eyes closing.
ooc: Probably have to go soon. School. Can you get on at... 3:30?

Fox felt Dakota sift from under him and nudge away slightly. Fox pulled his arm back to himself and watched Dakota carefully, telling him she was fine. "May i ask how he died?" Fox said, watching as she closed her eyes and turned away
ooc- ill try

Dakota nodded, looking out into the distance, still looking away from him. "He was... Pushed... Over the edge of a cliff at the age of two," She stammered, shaking her head. "I could've caught him, I could've saved him, but I was so exhausted I could hardly stand. He died because of me," She continued, ranting on herself. She shook her head. "He could still be alive today," She whispered to herself, resting her forehead on her knees, and taking a deep breath. "But, it's not that bad. I would've have escaped if he didn't die."

Fox shook his head, shocked at how he had been killed, "Dont you dare blame yourself Dakota!" He growled, seeing her shake her head, "It was not your fault that he died, he was killed by someone else, not you." Fox said, looking at her, "And why was it best that he died? How did his death enable you to escape?" Fox questioned

Dakota sighed. "If he hadn't been killed, then I wouldn't have found out how that the guy who used me was just... Well... Using me," She frowned, and closed her eyes. "It just laid out that way." She sighed, still not looking up.
ooc: Sorry, bad post. Searching for muse.

Fox nodded, "I presume he was ordered to do it?" He asked watching as she bowed her head, "May I ask where this branch of the school is?"
ooc- same XD

Dakota burshed her hair out of her face, sitting up. The sun was over the horizon now, making the sky more light blue than the pastel colors it was. She shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe. But," She sighed. "I'll never know." She smirked as Fox asked his question. "Tennessee, I'd expect you to recognize this by the slight twange that I get when I talk," She laughed lightly. "Especially when you caught me in the lab," She smirked, looking back at the sky. "Why can't... Life be like when your flying. The exhilaration, the freedom, peace. You can't get that here."
ooc: I've been thinking this part over at school. I had another idea, which would be kind of a way to get them together more.

Fox mentally smacked himself, of course she was from the branch in Tennessee! He shook his head and chuckled at her last comment, "Well, ill never now. Maybe flying for you is like running for me." Fox said and shrugged, "But i understand your meaning. When i run as an eraser, i feel as if there is no one but me and the world. Stopping only for water when im thirsty, eating when hungry, sleeping when tired." Fox said, "In my opinion, thats the best way to live."
ooc- shot

Dakota smirked. "That's the way to live. Life wouldn't be half as bad if that was how it was. But it isn't." She shrugged, a slight wind playing with the loose hair around her shoulders. The suns rays were starting to produce more heat, but as it would rise, it'd be harder to descriminate the heat. Because the best heat was when it was first rising. "Life's a big board of chess. The wrong moves end up in your ultmiate doom. Sometimes you have to take out people, and sometimes your taken out early. And then, there's those times, where your the last one standing against the world," She frowned. "It's us against the world."
ooc: You mean shoot don't you? I'll PM you it.

Fox nodded, the wind blowing Dakota's hair around slightly. Fox chuckled at her description of life. "Your right." He grunted, "Some of us are pawns, others knights, and then, of course, there are the Kings." Fox said. "Your life is basically based off of what you start of as. Be it rook or pawn. If you get to the end of the board, you can become whatever you like." Fox said and chuckled, "Sorry, i kinda went philosophic here."
ooc- XP, yeah, that. And OK
