The Night World {RP}

[Miranda_]

Since both victims' injuries were consistant with an animal attack, the police were to make a search of the town for any clues leading to a savage pet dog, but found nothing. Just in case, both were given a rabies shot.

No one seemed to believe Emily and Mia about the giant wolf that had attacked their mother. Eventually, Emily told Mia to stop telling people about it.

Ooc: have to get off now; going somewhere with dad, bye!

[Miranda_]

A few people mentioned the legend of the demon dogs, and muttered darkly about people their brother's friend's cousin had known who'd been attacked by them, too.

[spirit_queen]

There were even some highly religious who made the sign of the cross at the mention of the "hellhounds".

Eventually, Emily and Mia were allowed to go home; Emily still had homework to do, after all, and both girls had school.

[Miranda_]

The police arranged for a social worker to check on the girls once a day to see if everything was alright, but there wasn't any problem about them staying in the house while their parents were in hospital.

[spirit_queen]

After all, Emily was almost seventeen, and more than capable of looking after her younger sister.

After helping her with her homework, Emily sent a still-shocked Mia off to bed. Of course, Emily herself was still shocked by events, but, unlike Mia, she was going to take advantage of the situation.

After all, the town thought those things were Hellhounds; who's to say that she didn't summon them through some ritual? She didn't, of course, but it wasn't like her parents dind't need to know that.

[Miranda_]

Lupe and Dolph had gone out to hunt in the forest, well pleased with the night's work. Dolph could hardly wait to see Emily the next day, tho he'd have to of course claim ignorance of the night's events til she told him.

*next day*

After escorting Mia to school, Emily went to school herself. She had dressed in a gorgeous red sweater dress and gray leggings so thick they were more like pants and her black boots. The red wonderfully set off her black hair, she knew, she she fel great; nevermind that she'd found the whole outfit at the thrift store on their Half-Price Wednesdays for under $5.

Today, she'd woke up feeling, well, free, and this was her way to celebrate; the world was a wonderful place for the moment, free of horrid parents. She felt a strong need to express that in some way, and, well, this was the easiest.

[Miranda_]

Dolph yawned a bit as he went to school; he hadn't got much sleep the night before.

[spirit_queen]

"Hey there, Sleeping Beauty," she said when she saw him.
