AniMagic: Halfbreed (anyone welcome)

[Bladeh Mercury]

<The tree is really different. My home is somewhat different. Come on. Let's go.>
*rubs hoof in ground and twitches tail, getting impatient*

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

Sorry.  Just...so many memories here. 
*climbs up the tree, and finds a certain branch, which I proceed to pull.  A door opens in the trunk of the tree.*

Yep.  Very large tree.  Welcome to my home.

[Bladeh Mercury]

*nods, understanding*
<I really hope this place is big. I hate enclosed spaces.>

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

Oh, it's big.

*I step into the tree.  Several people are there, and call greetings.  They all look a little different.  One, in the corner in shadows, looks rather creepy, but you can't see him very well.  Until, of course, he steps into the light.  That reveals a guy who's skin is hanging in rags off of his bones.  Almost every bone is visible, with only a few patches of skin where they should be.  Another person walks up*

Ah.  Yes.  Him over there, that's January, he has bone powers...yeah, don't really want to talk about it.  Oh, hey October!  Meet my new friends.

[Bladeh Mercury]

<Yeah. Really don't want to know. Bone powers. That sounds weird.>
*pause*
<Well, hi.>
*waves hand slightly*

[Sakki De Roxea]

...such power in this...family...kin s group...whatever you humans call it.

[Bladeh Mercury]

<I wouldn't know what it's called here.>
 *pause*
<And what do you mean by power?>

[Sakki De Roxea]

*covers eyes with hair* I mean they are strong. Almost as strong as the Roxeans.

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

Yeah.  The "normal" humans call us freaks.  We just call ourselves...well... different.  Now, why did you bring us here?

[Bladeh Mercury]

<And the humans think you're freaks. So, uh, Sakki?>

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

*looks very depressed, and sounds bitter*  Well, do you blame them?  Here we are, twelve freaks of nature.

[Bladeh Mercury]

*seems to be asking too many questions*
<Why do you look depressed? Don't call yourselves freaks.>

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

*looks up at Bladepaw*

You don't understand.  It's not our fault that we're different.  They think we're a danger.  They're trying to "weed us out."  It's like the Holocaust all over again.

[Bladeh Mercury]

(In this universe, I'm not bladepaw. I'm not a cat. I'm bladeh)

<I still feel like I'm asking too many questions. Whose fault is it? The humans? And what are we doing here again?>

[Sakki De Roxea]

To me that is lucky. *looks at horsie* There is few of my kin left. Most of my family has died. They have my child, too. And there is nothing i can do.
