[The feed starts out rather blurry, static covering over the screen now and again before it finally focuses onto one Hol Horse, who's outside and leaning against a wall, panting heavily to catch his breath.]

... okay... okay then, that's the last time I do that... fighting with this chip... is not a good idea. What... what the hell was that thing anyway--Eh?

[Hol whips around at the sound of a few low growls, and he slowly backs toward where he left the communicator. With wolves growling even louder he quickly snatches the device up and bolts.]

Aw, c'mon...!!

[During his escape, Hol unfortunately lost his hat.]

What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into now.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Just get these things away from me!!

[madwashu.livejournal.com]

[She just rolls her eyes and typing can be heard.]

Where are you.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

[Hol is still running from the wolves that would like to chew on him.]

Do you think I'm really going to stop and look??

[madwashu.livejournal.com]

If you wanted a door way away from the giant puppies that are trying to eat you, Yes.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Not so sure that's a good idea...!

[madwashu.livejournal.com]

[Washu just snorts faintly as there's the sound of more typing.]

I really shouldn't rescue you. I have other important projects I could be doing.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

[There's a sound of one obviously panicked Hol running.]


You can't be that cold...!

[cozmic-travel.livejournal.com]

Having fun, dear?

[madwashu.livejournal.com]

[Don't tempt her.]

You will find that one must never assume when it comes to dealing with another.

[More tapping before she finally stops.]

Take a left and run through the first door. It will take you to the other side of town and away from the wolves.

[The baying of wolves for a coward's blood was such a sweet euphony to accent the night. As the hat fluttered in the air, it fell at the dainty feet of a creature who was enjoying the concord... Bending at the waist to pick up the western leather hat, she hadn't expected to get a piece of swag from it.]

Mnn.. a rustic feel.

[Taking off her fuzzy Russian-box, the little vampire plopped the wide-brimmed cowboy hat on and giddily spun around in it.]

I think I'll keep it.

[spectrophobic.livejournal.com]

[Boy, does she hear you there--]

Oh shit.

[She hears those growls too.]

Run, Hol, run!!

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

[As he ran, his mind suddenly recalled something...]

Hold that door open, I need to get my hat...!

[He's not going anywhere without it.]

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Only if being chased by a pack of hungry wolves is your idea of fun...!

[madwashu.livejournal.com]

[Twitch.]

Either go through the door or not, you have five seconds Hol. I can't just 'hold the door open for you.'

[Action]

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

[During his mad dash towards a hopeful exit to safety, it was only then that Hol recalled that his hat had gone missing during the chase. Gritting his teeth, he'd have to figure out a way to backtrack. Skidding to a halt and holding holding out his hand to create the sound of a gunshot was enough of a distraction to scatter the wolves. Unfortunately there was no actual bullet... so Hol darted past the small pack and back the way he came.]

What the--

[Just up ahead, he had spotted a figure... a figure that was wearing -his- hat. Darting up to the stranger and coming to a halt, Hol placed his hands upon his knees as he panted heavily. It wouldn't be long and those darn wolves would be back.]

Hey... y'got something that belongs to me. Hand it... over.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Trust me, you don't need to tell me twice..!!

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Five seconds?! ...




...
I appreciate your offer to help, but I'm not going anywhere without that hat.

[madwashu.livejournal.com]

[There's a moment of silence before there's a soft tapping.]

Then find another exit. I don't have the energy to hold open doors while you fetch a hat.

[cozmic-travel.livejournal.com]

Not really. Where are you, may I ask?

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

That's a... well that's a very good question. I'd answer you if I could!

[cozmic-travel.livejournal.com]

Well I can't very well help you if I don't know where you are, dear.

[spectrophobic.livejournal.com]

How the hell do you get in this situation anyway?

[And where did your hat go?]

[king-no-life.livejournal.com]

[She watched him idly trot up to her like a winded race-horse on his last legs. He would make easy pray for the cute doggys she knew were sniffing him out. The scent of his horrific sweat was probably driving the wolves mad with hunger.

She blinked widely up at him as if she had no idea what he was speaking of.]

Father says I shouldn't talk to strangers.. especially ones who think I owe them something.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

I was taking a walk... stretch the legs. Fresh air, whatever... and came across this thing in the park. Really odd thing and I--

[His reply is cut short due to the need to run from vicious puppies again.]

[Action]

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

[He glared down at the girl for a moment, before offering a kind and gentle smile.]

My apologies, name's Hol Horse. Didn't mean to be rude, miss.

[He'd tip his hat if he could... if only someone else wasn't wearing it. Clearing his throat he started again.]

That hat. I lost it just seconds ago, so if you'd kindly return it?

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

You don't have yours out yet?

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

I did, at one point.

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

I thought so. That's got to be frustrating.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Only a lot.

Remind me not to take late night walks anymore.

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't go walking so late at night--without someone who has their chip out already.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

....



Very. Funny.

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

Far be it from me to suggest you might need protection!

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Would you be the one to protect me~?

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

I do have my chip out.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

So, how do long late night walks sound?

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

Better than sitting in my tiny apartment.

Then again, you did warn me that you're supposed to kill me.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

An enemy of Dio, Joestar.


If Dio's not here, then it shouldn't matter?

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

Then I have no quarrel with you either. As we have said.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Oh good!

So, when's a good time for a night time walk?

[hamonatrix.livejournal.com]

Whenever you like.
