Tahra "Jay"

Jay watched carefully as Dani looked around the room and he grinned as he saw her look at the last boy and then turn to look back at Jay.
"That's him, huh?" Jay grinned wider, if that was even possible, and then reached out to take the bucket of acid from Dani and carefully set it down on the ground.
Grabbing the Dani's hand as well as the boy's, he forced their hands together. Retreating behind them, he pushed them gently toward the door. "Go on you two lovebirds! Fly, fly! You were made for each other, after all." he grinned and turned to look at the rest of the humans. "Well, if it isn't your lucky day, kiddos! Dani-chan here found her human, so I suppose I shouldn't scar him by killing y'all, so that means good news for you; you get to live! If you'll just step this way, I shall kindly take you back to your world."

Fennec

Fennec was startled when the girl that had come in suddenly turned around with an astonished look on her face. "Wha-" the boy, he supposed his name was Jay, grabbed his hand and shoved it into the girl's so that they were holding hands.
Fennec was too astonished and confused to do anything as Jay began talking about him and Dani being made for each other. "Made for each other? What are you talking about? Who is this girl? Where am I? What are you going to do to me? What's going on?" his questions went unanswered as the boy had already turned around to talk to the other humans in the room.
Not sure what to do, Fennec just stood there confused.

Kayu "Husky"

Husky was in a bad mood. He was stalking a particularly young girl that was out jogging. She couldn't have been more than twelve. Husky grinned. A menacing, malicious smile as he slipped through the city under the cover of darkness. Turning into an alleyway he figured would make a good shortcut, he walked into a boy on accident. The impact knocked Husky over, since he was much smaller, and he went sprawling on the filthy ground. Feeling that his fedora had fallen from his head, Husky frowned.
"You made me lose my fedora. That was my favorite fedora." his words portrayed annoyed astonishment, though his face was blank besides for his frown.

Pushing himself lightly to his feet, Husky turned to get a look at the boy who had knocked him over. Not bothering to brush away the dirt that had clung to his dark clothing, Husky stared at the boy for a moment. A streetlamp just outside the alley flickered on timidly, casting just enough light to remove the shroud of darkness from Husky's face. His dark brown eyes seemed especially black in the dim light, giving him a more demonic look. However, his tousled hair and the depression in it from his hat gave an especially contradicting idea. Not to mentioned his fine-boned, moderately feminine facial structure and the fleur de lis tattooed beneath his right eye. His black T-shirt and gray jeans blended into the shadows, but the red collar on his shirt did not, although the collar had slid down to reveal one of the tattoos on Husky's collarbones. It had also revealed the red ribbon that hung loosely around his neck and the bell that hung from it.

As he moved to shift his shirt back into its normal position and fix the neckline to hide the ribbon and bell, the engraved ornament jingled. If one were to think about it, the ribbon and bell were much like the collar one might put on a dog or cat.

"Well? What do you have to say for yourself?" Husky stared up at the boy with a challenging gaze, daring him to try something.

The boy he had bumped into was only an inch taller than him, but Husky wouldn't care if the guy was two feet taller; the guy had made him lose his fedora. It was probably filthy from the ground, and there was no way that Fennec was going to let that slide. Carefully sliding his backpack off, he unzipped the top pocket and reached in. Retrieving a plain black fedora, he slipped it on his head casually and zipped the small backpack back up before he pulled it back over his shoulders.
