Introduction
It has been a month since the monsters have been taken from their homes and they are anxious and starting to lose their heads being cramped up. Some of them have been broken submitting to life as an exhibit while others are plotting to escape the facility and somehow return home where they can live in peace. Some of the scientist's children have heard their fear and sorrow of staying inside the cage so some have decided to help the creatures...
The Races
Humans
The main race which inhabits most of the Earth. They are the most intellectual making cities and machines out rocks and weather. They are average out of the groups having no true physical attributes that help them out. They like-wise have no true weakness that hurts them in a true one hit kill. They are clear survivors and adapters able to cling to life and build to survive and thrive which has caused them to travel away from the islands never to return and colonize the rest of the planet. They have grown somewhat spoiled as a species needing unimaginable luxuries compared to the others.
Vampires
These creatures are extremely stereotyped in the human world. They are viewed as vicious bloodsucker who like nothing more than to feed on the blood of humans. More of which in reality they feed more of which on bloody meat which much be freshly killed. They do have a taste for blood although the much rather prefer the meat than the blood. They are slightly taller than the average size of humans but much faster but their upper body strength lacks extremely. They do have the ability to grow a pair of bat wings out of their shoulder blades which allow them to fly short distances. They are significantly faster than humans and can easily be labled as the fastest of the monster group. Their weakness is the vegetable garlic, the smell of it pierces their sense and if ingested can shut down their nervous system and cause them to stop breathing.
Werewolves
Werewolves are able to change their forms from human form to large wolves the size of horses. They are a calm species unless threatened then they will turn into savages. They are loyal to their allies and can be tamed easily making them a very easy species to break emotionally. They have a diet very similar to the vampires and will often try to steal some scraps of food if needed. They like to be with other and hate to be alone and will try to get into a group if separated. Their weakness is silver. Their skin is extremely sensitive to it and if touched by it their skin will start to deteriorate causing them to bleed to death.
Elves
Possibly the most humanoid of the monsters the only thing that separates them and humans are the strange diet of bugs and leaves, the large pointed ears used for hearing their prey and finally their enhanced ability for feeling vibrations. They use these combined talents for hunting large prey such as deer and boar a meat favored by the Vampires and Werewolves. The Elves are a noble race ,slightly taller than the average human but still taller than the Vampires. The Elf is a very kind creature but also very craft and capable of talking someone into a trap. Their weakness is cold. If the get even slightly cold they will instantly freeze up and die.
Dwarfs
Dwarfs are a small proud race standing at a mere four to five feet they are the smallest of the races but extremely strong. They are sometimes referred to as the opposite vampire. Where most of them are short ,slow,and strong compared to the tall,fast,and weak vampires. Their diet is very strange consisting of mead and cooked rocks with the occasional pork brought to them by some of the more generous tribes. Their immune system makes them invulnerable to most diseases. Their weakness is a small knot on their bodies. Where it is varies with the dwarf, if it is struck the dwarf will drop down dead to the ground.
Orc
Orcs are the brutes of the monsters with amazing strength and power with little to no brain mass. They are largest out of the five towering over humans and standing a few feet over the elves. Their skin is a light green to match their swampy habitats. They have no true home being completely nomadic finding their meals by conquering and trading. They are large and very sturdy capable of taking out a whole tribe of Werewolves by themselves with little casualties. They wear more of which lion cloths and speak very little to other species and will speak in rough english when they do. Their weakness lies in their feet, if you can manage to break one of their toes they will become blinded with rage attacking anyone whose close to them which is often their own.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 9 authors
"As far as exercise goes...this place is a little cramped..." Delta pursed her lips slightly, hand perching on her hip. Her eyes slid toward the werewolf enclosure across from theirs. "But you could always do what that werewolf is doing." She looked back at the other girl, her expression brightening noticeably. "And as for fun, I'm an awesome conversation partner if I do say so myself." She boasted, a broad smile splitting her face.
The sound of the door that lead into the cage unlatching once again interrupted the interractions of the residents of the vampire enclosure. Delta swiveled around to see a scientist enter. In a flash Alex was behind him, pushing the door shut before lunging at him, putting an arm around him to hold him in place, all the while hissing and screaching.
"W-what do you want?" The scientist stammered, a look of horror on his face.
"Get me your leader in the next five minutes or I will not hesitate to kill you." Alex threatened. Delta's eyes flashed with excitement the moment the word 'kill' found its way into the sentence.
"Ooh! This just got really exciting!" She beamed. "Oh, oh! Can I help kill him?"
"C-certainly, Mr. vampire." The scientist agreed. Out of the corner of her eye Delta saw the door to the enclosure re-open and another human leaned in, firing a tranquilizer directly into Alex's neck. As Alex grabebd for his neck both of the humans fleed.
"Come back and fight like a maa..." Before the blonde haired vampire could finish his sentence he wilted into the ground. Delta watched, putting on a look of dissapointment.
"Aw, dammit."
Hailee flew in the blink of an eye she was at the scary hatch clawing at it angrily glaring and hissing at the humans behind it on the other side. She stood at the doorway with her wings spread out high an wide to make herself look bigger even though she was a small girl. She stood guarding the door so no one else could come in without her attacking them. "you assholes leave us be! I swear if I get out of here I'll rip you all to shreds!!" she enunciated the last sentence and the humans who attacked Alex ran off to another part o the zoo like the cowards they all are and always will be.
Benjamin nodded, stretching a little and retreating further into the shade. He felt Logan's eyes on him, ears trained over there. "The male has the ability to get into the cages. He's the new woman's pup. They're going to go meet the elf. They're going into the elf enclosure," he explained, his ears remaining trained on the humans. "He trains animals. To do something. Not sure what."
Hailee wandered aoumd and sat facing the werewolf exhibit. She then noticed two humans a boy and girl making their way to it. Sat on her knees and looked sadly miserable at them. She knew the wolves would be set free and not her and everyone else in the terrible zoo. She began to cry softly tears streaming down her face but no sound or whimpering coming out of her mouth. Only tears. Soon a crowd began to crowd around her staring at her and hooting and hollering probably mean things to make her give them more emotion an actual show for them. But fortunately she couldn't hear their insults, the only thing she did see was five guys crowded squatting in the front of the line making gross and sexual things that they wanted her to do. She hissed and cryed more no being able to move from the sorrow and pitifulness she felt for herself.
Nadelin's eyes hardened, a determined look on her face. "I'm going to break them out of here. I've got to do it- I just have to! My dad has the keys to all the enclosers. I'm going to steal them and break all of these semi-humans out of here. Then I'm gonna take them back to where they belong and get rid of all the files on their location! Dad hasn't installed any trackers on any of them yet, they no one could find them again! Then they'd all be safe and free, like they were before we came in the captured them." Nadelin chewed her bottom lip again, which she usually did when she was worried. "But I'll have to do it soon. There aren't any guards at night, just cameras, for now. And I don't think the werewolf is going to stop anytime soon... I'm afriad that if I don't break them out tonight, I'll never be able to help them get home. They'd be trapped here until they die! Or worse..."
He sighed, squeezing her arm. "I'm with you. They need to be free. But we need to spent a little bit of time figuring out their personalities and learning about them. I also have keys. We don't need to steal them. Just give it 'til the end of the week so the defenses aren't as high, okay? We need to get to know them all, too. They're still dangerous creatures. I trust they wouldn't hurt us if they knew we were helping but at this point they probably hate all humans unconditionally. Okay? Patience is the key in this situation.
“Oh hex no! I am not going to let this happen! Doesn’t anyone get that they’re suffering enough without all the profanity! C’mon Logan!” Nadelin fumed, furious that they would be doing something so vulgar at the expense of the poor vampires. Grabbing the boy’s hand, Nadelin marched over the five guys. Nadelin’s heart melted at the sight of the vampires who had been reduced to tears, confined in a clear prison and trapped in a strange place with wretch people like those boys. “Please… hang in there just a little bit longer…” Nadelin plead quietly to the vampiress, as if she could hear Nad’s voice. “I promise, I’m gonna get you out of here. Please hang on…” Then she turned her burning gaze to the idiots tormenting the poor girl.
“Hey you!” The boys stopped a moment to turn to the new arrival, the sick grins still on their faces. “Hey! Just what the hex do you five think you’re doing?” “Just looking at the blood-suckers.” One of them replied, and to the side another boy made a sexual gesture, triggering laughs from the rest of the group. “Do you think you’re funny?” Nad fumed, “You’re really going being stupid If you’re going to be retarded, do it somewhere less humiliating to yourself!” “Better watch that mouth chick. You don’t wanna get in trouble with it.” One of the guys sneered and another stepped foreward, gripping Nad’s wrist. “Stop it! Ow! Let me go!” Nad cried, angry and in pain from how tightly he was squeezing her wrist. Jerking her wrist from his grip she stamped on his foot and he yowled in pain whist another boy grabbed her wrists. He gripped tightly, practically crushing them in his hands and making her yelp. “Let go you jerk-offs!” The gang of boys laughed in response to Nadelin’s pain.
She watched the girl go to the boys and talk to them, narrowing her eyes as the scene got a bit violent. She went into her tree house, pulling out a plank she had been saving for forever. She dragged it to her glass casing, growling as she began swinging it and hitting the glass. She glared at the boys, getting angrier and angrier at the fact that they were bullying her new friend. She kept swinging the large, heavy plank at the glass, not caring who was staring. She kept her focus on the group of boys that were torturing the girl, them fueling her anger as she hit the glass harder and harder with the plank. She didn't bother yelling, knowing that it would be useless.
"Are you quite all right, Nadelin?" he asked, adjusting his glasses. He smiled softly at her. "I'm sorry that my gender tend to be a bit lewd. Did they hurt you at all?"
Suddenly as the girl was yelling at the boys that turned on her and were starting to beat her up and other stuff. Hailee's eyes turned from fear and sadness, blue and green, to the darkness of black in the night. She was enraged by the vulgar males. Hailee stood up hissing an grew her wings big menacingly to try and scare the boys but that seemed to egg them on or something. She scratched at the glass helplessly from the inside begging to be let outside to help the girl. Suddenly the other boy tht was with the caring girl came over and did in a much nicer way than hailee woul have, beat them all up and sent them running like the pathetic losers they were.
Hailee stood glaring at them as they ran. She stood behind the glass right in front of the girlabd now boy. She put her hand up on the glass and two long tears fell down her face. Her eyes turned an unnatural electrifying green in sadness that she felt she had caused the girl. "I'm sorry. Please forgive me." she said to the girl through the glass.
Sivian snarled at her paws and forced herself to run harder. ''Run...'' she panted, ''Run... keep... running...'' the ivory wolf panted. She growled and felt tears forming in her eyes because of the pain but she forced them back. She shook her head and kept running, she wasn't going to give in, not even if her paws would fall off.
Sivian fell and growled. She stayed down for a few seconds before forcing herself back up. She started running again, hardly getting enough breath, but stayed running. Nothing would get her to stop running. She had to run, she had to get out, and she would get out, just to run. She would do anything to get out, and she knew that if she worried the scientists to much she would eventually.
Sivian felt light headed and she felt her paws burning more than ever. She felt her eyes wanting to close but she kept going. ''Not... yet...'' she mumbled to herself and forced herself to run just slightly harder. And than, the wolf's eyes closed and she collapsed again, her paws bleeding even worse than the first time. Her breathing was fast and the wolf was unconscious again, just like before.
Nadelin could feel her heart breaking as the tears steamed down the girl's face. Knowing she couldn't hear her, Nad instead got out her notebook and wrote something in it, then pressed it to the glass. "Please don't cry," it read, "We're going to get you out of here as soon as we can. Just hold on a little longer." Nadelin gave a sympathetic smile of reassurance to the girl. Then she took Logan's hand and held it up, level to their shoulders, to prove they were both going to help her and the others escape. Hearing the loud BANG BANG BANG noises, Nad's attention was turned to the elf exibit where she saw the elf slamming on the glass with a board. Where had she gotten a board from? "Oh cripes! Logan, we'd better get over there!"
He knocked on the glass with his fist, trying to get the two humans' attention. He was so bored. He desperately wanted someone to talk to. He knew he wouldn't be able to speak through the glass anyway, but maybe they could sign. Or something. Anything! Honestly, he had come here voluntarily, he let the scientists do their little tests on him, he helped them with their problems, and they still kept him in this little glass box. Why? Hadn't he proved that he loved them? Ah, well it was useless. Maybe these humans could help him. But they seemed interested in the elf, who was banging against the glass with a piece of lumber. So Lurbuk walked back to his tree and sat on the ground, leaning against the tree. Maybe some other time. He closed his eyes and tried to think about nothing, but ended up thinking about the fact that one can't think about nothing, because then they'd be thinking about something. Then he got confused, so he growled and stood up, pacing. There was nothing to do here. He wanted some humans to come around so that he could entertain them. But noone seemed to like the orc exhibit very much. Too scary, perhaps? Whatever it was that caused the human skittishness, Lurbuk cursed it. He was so lonely until they came around!
The dark haired vampiress shuffled to the other side of the enclosure and leaned against the glass, sliding into a sitting position. From where she sat she could see the orc exhibit. There was only one resident of the cage. A towering being who now sat against a tree. She watched him, her interest piquing slightly. She had never witnessed an orc in its natural habitat, but she could recall her mother's warnings about how they were vicious, mindless killing machines. With a neighbor like that, maybe things didn't have to be such a drag...

The second was when Delta grinned at another enclosure. It was an orc habitat. He looked down at his boots and clicked his heels and a small blade popped out. He was more if kicking than punching so he had a pair of boots made to have a blade hidden in them. Luckily for him it was kept hidden enough for the humans not to notice. He sighed and clicked them back retracting them ,then walked to Hailee. He could at least try " Hailee you okay there " he knelt down beside her.
"Hailee you okay there?" Alex asked in a soft voice and knelt beside her. Hailee quickly hugged him, holding onto him tightly and buried her face into his neck. She didn't want him to think she wasn't strong and she definitely didn't want him to see her like this. She needed someone to give her a hug after everything that had happened to her within the last two days. She couldn't stand being without any comfort or affection from someone for even a day. It was just who she was.
"No, I hate confined spaces. I don't like to be treated like that." She said in a shaky voice pointing in the direction that the guys who were teasing her ran from before.
" All I need you to do is to stay calm ,okay. If you can keep your cool , you won't go insane. If you don't go insane I'll have someone to talk to besides Delta and all she wants to talk about is death. " he laughed a bit then sighed knowing it was true. " Well just be calm okay. " he lifted her head off his shoulder for a moment " You have very pretty eyes you know that " he smiled again then realized they were extremely green now as he realized she had mood eyes a strange trait unique to the vampires. He snapped back into reality and wiped a dew tears from her face. " Just please stay calm its gonna be okay, I promise. "
When Alex mentioned that he'll have someone to actually have conversations with a small smile crept onto her face at the tiny joke. she giggled softly as he lifted her head off of him and held her face gently in front of him. He looked at her eyes and gave her a compliment on them. He even wiped her tears away for her. He was being very nice and sweet to her which she liked a lot. She didnt feel so alone anymore. She blushed giving him a big smile and her right eyes turned yellow and the other pink. The two emotions of happiness and love.
"ok I will Alex. Thank you. That made me feel so much better." she smiled and gave him a small kiss on the cheek in thanks. She sat back and looked at him.
'HELLO! I'M A BIG FAN OF YOUR WORK!' it read.
'Hay their! Thanks, but wut work?'
