"GEMS~ GEMS FOR A POOR BLIND WOMAN, NYEHEHEEE"
Well, this is what her life had become. It was somewhat degrading. Somehow it was perfectly suited for Creeper.
There she sat, on some road corner in an underpopulated villiage, a dusty mat underneath her tensed body. She looked as monsterly as always. At this moment she seemed practically snake-like, her tail coiled around the rest of her body and her head swiveling from side to side. She was attempting to pick up the sounds of a gullible wayfarer, calling out loudly every once in a while in her raspy voice.
"GEMS~ GEMS FOR THE POOR. PUT A LITTLE LOVE IN YER HEART~"
Still nobody. Come to think of it, Creeper was likely to have gotten the directions wrong. For all she knew, she could be in the middle of nowhere. Winter was just as likely to have given her the wrong directions for a laugh or two. Then again, it was her idea to beg for gems in the first place. She figured it would be wisest to send Creeper, as she was the most pitiful-looking of the three. It kinda sucked having to share your money with two other people. This had better mean Creeper would be getting a fiero soon. Or an extra hunk of meat.
... Wow. Actually, she was pretty hungry too. Was this what feeling homeless felt like?
"GEMS~ NYEHEHE~ YOUR GOD LOVES YOU FOR FEEDING THE POOR."

The common fiero was having a blast, as always. She was currently running as as fast she possibly could, her tongue hanging out of her mouth. She had no idea where idea she was going, but the destination didn't matter it's the journey that counts. Xander was going to kill Doodles when he caught up to her, IF he caught up to her, which was really doubtful. She had sprinted out of his house as soon as he had opened the door, which she usually did, but this time she didn't prance around the house, she started running as fast as she could away from the house. Xander has dashed after her, screaming at her, but had soon lost her. He was currently running after her, feeling like he was going to pass out. He stopped and double over, taking sharp breathes. "She.. Is.... Going... To... Die..." Xander panted. Doodles caught sight of something interesting so stopped. It was a weird looking thing that was howling about gems and gods. She went over to it and stuck her nose in it's face, sniffing it. She then withdrew, and tilted her head at it. Interesting. By some miracle, Xander stumbled towards Doodles, out of breathe. Then he caught sight of Creeper. He let out a little squeak, being caught of guard by... that thing. It was that thing again, from before. "Uh.... Doodles!" he said angrily, trying to forget the thing. Doodles wasn't paying attention, she was too busy staring in awe at the creature. (3.3) (254)

"Nyehehe-uh?"
Creeper's yowling was interrupted by a wet nose to the face. In confusion, she sat up on her haunches and pawed the air in front of her.
"Who'sis? We're kinda jumping the gun, aren't we? I'd wait 'till after the first date, nyehehe~!"
It was then that she heard the pitterpatter of unfamiliar feet. Finally, a passerby! Maybe they'd have some money to spare. Creeper was about to ask in an obnoxiously loud voice when the person spoke. Doodles? Well, first of all, that sounded like a kid. There was no way he'd have a respectable amount of gems on him. Plus he'd probably go running to his parents about the weirdo on the street corner and get her kicked out. Furthermore, he sounded somewhat familiar. Had they met before?
Wet-nose had stopped nosing about. Creeper gave her best smile and spoke up.
"I sure as hay dunno who Doodles is. I think ya got the wrong person, kid~" She followed up with another insane laugh. "But what're ya here for? Y'need something?"
Creeper was about to stand up at her full height again when she heard another sound. It was distant, and coming from further down the path. Somebody was calling for something. She'd ignore it, for now.

"Great, she is insane." Xander thought, looking her over.
"I know you're not Doodles, that's Doodles, the fiero that was sniffing you?" Xander said, pointed to Doodles who was prancing around Creeper very interested by this thing.
"I was chasing after Doodles, she can run really fast. Now I've found her, and she found you. I think she likes you." Xander babbled. This thing was interesting and would probably be fun to play with.
"Why are you here?" Xander asked curiously, "It's kind of in the middle of no where."
Doodles stopped her prancing and stuck her nose back in Creeper's face, as she had liked the reaction that had gotten her before. She gave a little yip, before licking Creeper's face and bounding away happily.
"That was Doodles." Xander informed Creeper, watching Doodles carefully. It seemed she had no sense of caution or fear around strangers. She also was a big puppy but Xander already knew that.
"Since you know Doodles' name it's only fair she knows your name. My name is Alexander in case you're wondering, but don't call me that, call me Xander." Xander chattered, hoping to learn this thing's name. (194) (3.4)

Creeper didn't know what the kid meant by "that's Doodles," but since she was apparently a fiero, she could make an educated guess that Doodles and Wetnose were one in the same.
"Likes me, eh?" Creeper replied, as she was nuzzled once more and then licked. This got a giggle out of the monster, and her tail twitched curiously. "n' I suppose I shoulda checked thoroughly before I chose a place to squat. Didn't think I heard anybody 'round. Yer the first one. I'm supposed ta be lookin' for dough, nyehehehe."
She licked her lips, aware that she probably wasn't facing the kid head-on. At the sound of his voice she turned to him as squarely as she could. "Y'can call me Creeper, Alexander. Nyehe!"
She held out a paw to shake, but as she did, a yell sounded from nearby-
"CREEPER! There you are! I've been looking all over for-"
The voice paused. At first, it wouldn't be clear where it was coming from- it's owner was so small. A bug-sized boy was hovering over the path with his dusty moth wings, glancing between the monster, kid, and fiero.
"Uh... I know it's lunchtime and all, but I think you could find something better to eat."

"You want money? Are you broke or something?" Xander asked innocently.
Doodles happily yipped as she pranced around Creeper, deciding she liked this thing.
Xander squeaked as Creeper turned to face him. He had to admit, she looked very frightening, and she could probably eat him if she felt like it. Hopefully she didn't feel like it.
Xander stared at her paw, wanting to punch her in the face. She did not just call him Alexander. He wanted to convince her her life was meaningless she was ugly and no one loved her, and convince her to jump of a cliff and end it all, but instead he just answered with an irritated, "I told you not to call me Alexander!"
He crossed his arms and glared, "Nice to meet you Cree, I guess."
Both Doodles and Xander jumped at the voice form no where. Doodles bounced everywhere trying to find the source. Xander stared at the relative area of the noise.
"I doubt Doodles would taste very good." Xander said to the voice, then added quickly, "I'd probably taste really bad too, and I've been told I give people diabetes."
"Are you invisible?" Xander finally asked after failing to find the source of the voice.

Oooh, she was broke all right. Not her problem, though- she was beginning to like this hobo thing. The only problem would be all the crap she'd get from Chess and Winter about it. But they could just deal.
"You guess? Nyehehe, I can live with it... Alex?"
Her ear flicked at the other voice, which was instantly recognizable. It wasn't one she exactly wanted to hear. Nonetheless, she gave him one of her widest, creepiest grins.
"Ehehey, Chessy!" She waved enthusiastically. "I was just about to dig in! Care to join?" she ignored Xander's last few comments, but bent down to whisper to him. "Careful with this 'n, he's kinda sensitive, nyehehe.[/i]"
At this, the other visitor piped up. You may not have been able to see it, but you could probably hear the scowl in his voice. In fact, he sounded offended. "I heard that! And I'm hardly invisible- you need glasses or something?" Chess flew closer, obnoxiously close to Xander's face. His hands were on his hips, and he leaned forward in his hovering. "See me now?
Creeper stood back, looking slightly blank-faced. She gave a slight giggle. "See, Xan? Don't mind Chess. Just squash him if he gives you any trouble."

"Xander." Xander said firmly, glaring at Creeper. He blinked as Creeper addressed the voice as Chessy. Someone she knew then? He then shuddered a bit about eating him again. More for her benefit than his, he wasn't that afraid of Creeper, she seemed relatively harmless, but best to create the illusion that she did frighten him a bit.
Xander noticed Creeper bending down, and he sighed. "Whatever she just said about me it isn't true."
Xander was startled as the small moth thing flew right in his face, looking ticked. His eyes widened and a smile suddenly covered his face.
"You are so tiny! That's... amazing! You are smaller than me, really smaller than me, I always thought I was tiny, but not compared to you~ I'm finally bigger than someone~" Xander gushed, giggling. He was as pleased as punch to discover someone was finally smaller than him.
"I don't think I'll squash him, that wouldn't be very nice anyway. Nice to meet you Che-Che." Xander said, still smiling widely.
Doodles was bouncing around, ignoring what was going on around her. She had lost interest in Creeper and Chess. Doodles was having much more fun just derping around.

"Where in the world am I...?"
A woman muttered under her breath as she made her way over the ground. Her red curly hair shone in the sunlight as she looked from side to side. The truth of the matter was she really had little to no clue where in the hell she was. She had just woke up, not too far from where she had wandered, a bag of her things by her, which now swung from her hand as she walked. Not that she felt like she was in danger or anything; the surroundings were so bright and nature was all around her. She loved it in the back of her mind but she would like it more if she knew how she got there. When she had first woke up and became conscious of all around her, she had thought someone might have drugged her.
Suddenly she could hear voices, maybe three people talking. People; she could get some answers. "Hello-?" She asked as she started to jog forward toward them.

Chess rolled his teeny-tiny eyes at Xander's gushing. He'd heard the entire "OMG YOU'RE SO SMALL" spiel before from Winter. And then from Creeper, who needed a bit of explaining to first. He pretended that the whole thing didn't get on his nerves. Immensely so.
"Yeah, yeah, thanks for the whole 'not squishing me' thing."
Creeper's giggling started up again. Apparently she was finding this really funny. Chess whipped around and scowled at the beast.
"By the way, WHERE THE HEY WERE YOU. Winter told me you'd be sitting around in the village, not a mile down the road from it. What happened?"
Creeper shrugged in reply.
"Well, have you made any money?"
No response. Her smile became slightly more stupid, and Chess groaned. He really had no idea why he expected any more from her. He looked back at Xander. "So, where do you come in to all this?"
While Chess' focus was on Xander, Creeper's smile fell a bit and she relaxed. As she did, she heard yet another noise- somebody calling, and jogging feet. She turned her head towards the source.

Che-Che seemed dismissive of Xander's statements. There was something there... it was time for an experiment.
"But you are just so tiny! I could like breathe and it would blow you far away~! I mean how do you do anything? You are like ity bity! So super ity bity, I mean I thought I was ity bity, but not like that! And you can fly! You are kind of like a moth... no wait I bet you are a moth~ Like Lu Lu is a tiger... It's amazing how super tiny you are, it must be scary, cause you might get squashed at any time!" Xander rambled happily.
"Hmm...? Oh, Doodles, that's my fiero, she ran away so I chased after her and she found Cree, so I found Cree." Xander explained, still grinning widely.
Doodles had noticed the person coming towards them. She dashed to the person, giving a small bark. She ran circles around the person then sprinted back to Xander's side. She loved meeting new people and little specks of dirt and monsters too!

Mariella stopped short of what she thought could be a sort of rescue party. She had thought she heard three voices but there was only one person-that she could make out. And...What was /that/? It looked like some sort of monster looking toward her. That wasn't the major thing to deal with at the moment though. It was the large canine-creature darting toward her, barking. For a moment she was afraid it would knock her over or something; it was atleast as big as a horse! "Uhm..." she uttered, caught for a loss. It ran a few circles around her like a yippy little chihuahua her aunt had owned before running back to the one human she had made out. What was he doing, calm as a flower chatting at the monster? He was younger then her, by years even! None of the scene made sense. 'Well self we aren't in Kansas any more...'
Deciding quickly that it must be safe since the pipsqueak was alright, joyful even she continued her walk toward the small group. Her voice came out louder then she had thought of saying them. "Hey-uh, kid! What's going on...?"

The mothboy gritted his teeth. Of course Creeper went and became friends with the single most annoying kid around. Something told Chess that Xander was doing this on purpose. He waited for the kid to stop, before he could speak up again.
"Yeah, I'm a moth. Unfortunately. And I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd shu-..." He paused mid-sentence, and then blinked. "Wait. Did you say tiger?"
Great. If gigantic wolfbeasts weren't enough, now there were tigers. Come to think of it, Chess had obtained a fiero when he first arrived, but she was still a tiny puppy. And, after a small absence, it seems like she'd run off. At least he hadn't seen her since.
But back to the tiger- had Xander seriously just said it's name was Lu-Lu? So was it a girl? The name sounded familiar. He could recall Winter mentioning it before.
Wow, that was a lot of musing. Let's move on, Chess-
Hearing a voice, the bug swiveled around in mid-air- the first thing he saw was red. Bright crimson hair, on a tall frame with simple clothes. another standout was the spiked armband, giving her a rather edgy look along with the ripped jeans. Realizing what she'd said, his antennae dropped a little in annoyance.
"Hey, I'm not a ki-" He now realized she'd been talking to Xander. Had he gone unnoticed? Creeper, seeming to read his mind, snickered.
"Aw, poor Chessy, nyeheh. The girls never even lay eyes on ya." Despite being blind, Creeper had an eerie grasp of the situation. She turned in Mariella's general direction and grinned. "So, you got any money on you?"

"Shut up? Why? Am I bugging you? Get it, bugging?" Xander grinned widened, rocking on the balls of his feet. This was far too much fun, looked like Che-Che had caught on to his game, but who cared, just made it even funner. "Yeah, he's nice though, he isn't like a real tiger, just looks kinda like one, he stands up and stuff. He won't eat you... I don't think anyway... didn't eat me~!" Xander explained, thinking about Lu-Lu and Bunny. Hadn't seen them in a while.
Xander turned his head to Mariella. "Hmmm? Nothing, really. My fiero, that's Doodles" he gestured at Doodles who was still standing by him staring at Mariella happily,"got out of my house to I had to chase her then I met Cree, she is this monster thingy and she is broke and needs gems. Then I met Che-Che, that is the little bug thing, probably didn't see him cause he is so small~ We were just talking... What's your name? My name is Alexander, but don't call me that, call me Xander. It is the polite thing to do." Xander rambled cheerfully to the newcomer, enjoying Cree and Che-Che's little fight.

She stared as a voice came from somewhere but she wasn't sure where. Her attention was quickly grabbed though by the monster-thing speaking to her. Oddly enough asking for money; well atleast she-it had a feminine voice-seemed nice enough, she seemed quite content to just sit there and sWhy the hell would you even think of using this word?..Nothing wrong with that. "Uhm...no..." She said and was about to ask about the other voice, this Chessy person, but the boy she first saw talked to her. Oh god-wait what, that bug was a person? She craned her neck some closer and stared at him. For some reason the little moth dude made her think she had entered a freaky Lewis Carrol book. And the monster's name was Creeper-how fitting indeed, she couldn't help but think. The boy himself seemed sorta annoying. But eh, people were people. She didn't wanna wander around like an idiot anymore.
"Hello...The name's Mariella-but you can call me Mars. Cause it is the polite thing to do~" She said, not helping a small bit of sarcastic mocking seeping into her voice. She tilted her head as she looked to Doodles. "So...That's a fiero...?" She asked, confused.
