Description: Been a while since ANYONE has drawn Darla. This I did for both Elizabeth and her boyfriend Kieron. Hope they both enjoy this one. This isn't Good Darla, but I didn't want to do Bad Darla either. So, this is Darla in a dream. Who's dreaming? Dunno'. But, it's an interesting thought and I wanted to draw her a nice outfit. So, I hope you like it. Cheers.

Description: This is Clover in that outfit I drew her in while she was visiting a sick rat. This was also opportunity to draw her with her new patches. They DO look good on her. Hope you like it, Claudia. *HUGS*

Description: HA-HAW! This is Simone, the female varient of Simon. I didn't want to go into an exact gender change so I made this Simon's obscure twin sister. I figured, "Ditsy Blond? Why not?" Now, a lot of gender changing has been going on around the MUCK lately. Richard became Rachelle, Eugene became Eugena, Tristan was Trista and ect. This hasn't yet happened to Simon to my knowlege, but it might. So, here she is. Simone. Thanks for inadvertantly giving me the idea, Simon. Hopefully, you don't ask yourself out, because that would just be weird. Enjoy.

Description: Finally I get a chance to draw something again. This is for Monika Spence. She gave me permission to draw all her Alternate characters this way. They are Claudia, Liz, Chloe, and Kelsey. It seems the tips of Kelsey's hair was a detail over looked by most artists, including me. Now, we'll see how it looks. Hope you like it, Monika.
Submitter: DB
Description: Said I would and I did. This is for Claudia that I had planned on drawing earlier, but had a bunch of things to deal with first. Sorry for not doing it earlier, Claudia. I do hope you like this picture. I figure this is fair exchange for that picture you did for me. Thank you for that picture and thank you for letting me draw this for you. Hope you like this.

Description: Ben was actually wondering when I would do a drawing of one of his characters in the anthromorphic form. I chose Fiona, because I like her best out of all of his charcters. I hope you like this, Ben. I enjoyed doing it. She's just so...pretty.
Submitter: DB
Description: Who dared draw Robin? I do hope she likes this though. She just seemed like a character no one hardly ever pays attention to. So, I urge you able artists to draw her some time this month or next month. She might appreciate it. I hope she does. Cheers.

Description: Jonathan and Sarah's first kiss. This concludes that earlier picture of Jonathan and Sarah I did a long while ago. Hope you all like it. Been a while since I've done a kiss pic.

Description: This is seed. She is a dark and evil rat who has recently shown up on the MUCK twice. Both times she went to torment Timothy. Why? Who knows for sure. Matthias suffered a dagger in the paw when he reached for his sword and the mice there were scared wittless. Her ice blue eyes often peirce the darkness as she watches others. She is mostly armed with daggers and tends to throw them. It might be interesting to see how Boma takes to her. Now, why Seed? A name she picked for herself to complete a couple sentences. Namely, seed of darkness and seed of death. She works with both. Seed is very dark, cold and cruel. She speaks very little, but when she does, it is the coldest spine chilling sound you will hear. I'm not too satisfied with how I did her claws. They're supposed to be needle sharp looking. Oh well. The penant that clasps her cape in place has a jewel that looks like a slitted eye. Those of you looking close, yes those are breasts. Thought they would hint at her heritage, perhaps. This is certainly one you do not want to meet in a dark alley. For it is the shadows that she will dissapear in or attack from. "Sweet dreams, Timothy...if you can mannage them."

Summary: Aideen's Prince.
Description: A nother picture for Aideen, by her request. This is based on an RP where Gillin and Aideen kiss for the first time. I do hope she likes it. I really enjoyed drawing this. Thank you for the request, Allison. Enjoy.

Description: This picture is for LordDirk. Now, he's done THREE pictures for me that really blew me away. Now, it's pay back time...in a good way. This scene took place in the NMC swimming hall. Now, Timothy and Rick didn't know what swim wear was for and didn't have any to start with. So, they jumped in with just their fur. This caused a group of female mice to come over and check these strangers out. The girls found out that these two 'hansome' mice were not from the NMC and decided to help them feel at home. So, they removed their swim wear. Two of the mousettes were Grace and Katie. They both warmed up to Rick in this scene depicted below. After a while, Rick said something that got all the other mice in the hall to think and before he knew it, a good number of the mice there were stripping down to their fur. What a revolutionary XD. This scene is a preleude to Ben's 'First Kiss'. I really enjoyed that RP and I'm sure Rick did too. Thanks for taking my requests, Patrick. Hope you take this as part one of a pay back. I hope you like it. Have fun.
Submitter: DB
Description: A decent alternative to an anthromorphic picture. This time someone is being unnessisarily censored for being in her fur. "Look, Timmy. It's your mom." Honestly, who thought Mrs. Brisby could be alluring? Anyways, enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Ben. I made Fiona her sword. A fine, strong Rapier. It is made of hardened and tampered aluminum, so it is very light in weight and easy to handle for even the more artistic of wielders. A special feature of this rapier are two additionall tine blades that paralel the main blade. This, in effect, can be used to snap other blades in half, if applied right. I hope you like this design, Ben. Took me a whole fifteen minutes to make.
Submitter: DB
Description: This wasn't exactly a request by LordDirk, but an intriguing idea, none the less. This is Violet. I'm sure at one time she had a different fur color. But, due to an accident, she's mostly...well...Violet. Well, hope this is good. Enjoy.

Description: As it so seems, I am leaving the MUCK. Whether or not it is for good, is still unclear. To some of the players, I've been a delight. To some others, I've been a dissapointment and a complete joke (you know who you are). I joined on because it was asked of me. There were some fun times and some interesting storries. But, I should get back to what I really should do. Do not worry, I will still post art here. I do not wish to deprive the viewers of some exceptional works of art, though there are better selections to view. For those of you who have been my friend and tollerated me, thank you. I will not forget the fun times we had. For now, just enjoy my art.

Description: Said I would draw her. Here she is :) Sorry it took so long to actually get around to doing, but I gave it my best. I tried to make Hecate look as graceful as possible. Almost as if she was in the middle of a dance. In one hand is her sash and in the other, her trusty morningstar. I took the liberties to give the end of the moningstar a different end. Make it just a little meaner by making it electric, I guess. Anyways, hope Helios likes this.

Description: Happy Birthday Ben! Even though it was yesterday, I still wanted to draw something for you. Now, that IS a mouse, believe it or not. A character I've had in mind for a while now. So, this would be a little preview of her. What her name is, I don't know. Point being, I drew this for Ben. So, I hope you like it. Happy Birthday, once again.

Description: As Lou and Elem were leaving the house the next day, Lou came up with a brilliant but daring idea to help Elem find his family. They were to go into the city, find a computer terminal and hack into the SLATE mainframe. At the sound of that Elem objected to the idea, but Lou convinced him to go along. When the question of transportation arose, Lou went back inside the house, briefly. Minutes later, a car drove up with a sign reading 'pizza'. Elem was puzzled with this, until Lou motioned for him to follow her into the car. They hid inside the car and waited for the pizza delivery man returned with the box of pizza. They then hid inside the box of pizza and took a ride over to the store. During that ride, Elem and Lou got hungry. They decided to help themselves to some of the pizza and some of the cola Lou packed with her. Finally, they arrived at the store. The box was taken inside the store where the store cat was begging for food...

Description: This picture only seemed fitting to Tzol. Tzolkin is probably more in touch with the dream world than any of us. Therefor, I made him into a Dream Traveler based on Klonoa. In addition, he hosts his own MUCK site known as Dreamscape. Come and visit and see what the dream is. Hope you like this, Tzol.
Submitter: DB
Description: Finally, I got aound to coloring her. Here she is, Roxan. Would you suspect she is a villianess? Well, her player gave me quite a description to work with. I hope I got it right. I hope you like it, Roxan. She was fun to draw. Thanks.

Description: Patrick has been feeling bad lately. I don't know if he's feeling better, now. But, I hope this will make his day. Why Fiona? Because she is like his mother and I don't draw her often. Hope you both like it. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: I said I would, so I did. Now, who says a mouse couldn't be sexy? Now, Lou manages to pull it off just fine. But, I think there are far too few examples of a mousette pulling it off. This is for Monika Spence. Hope you like it. It was fun to do.
Submitter: DB
Description: I've postponed all requests for this. Sorry. But, I consider Tzolkin to be a close personal friend and I think I may have let him down recently. I want to make up for my mood last night. Hope you talk to me again, Tzol. You were the one friend I felt I could identify with. If I let you down, please forgive me. Take care, my friend and brother.
Submitter: DB
Description: People like foxes. I like foxes, for sure. This is Tod and Asyra as foxes. It's not to imply any romantic situation. Just to kill two birds with one stone. Asyra seemed like she could use some cheering up and Tod gave me an idea. So, this is the result of that. Hope you two like it. Enjoy.

Description: Took long enough, you might say. This character was a request by Lee Jacobson. I'm sorry I couldn't have gotten it done sooner. I've been in a sort of creative slump, lately. Hope you don't mind the slight personal touches. For one: the purple stone is silver instead of gold and it has a sort of 'scar' across it. Almost as if it were scratched or fractured, or something like that. For the other: I expanded the gray strip that goes over her back and most of her face. Hope you like it. Enjoy.

Description: Thought I'd put this up, since people like the 3D work. This is a bit of a revise version of the Gunstar from 'The Last Starfighter'. I thought the ship was pretty cool already.

You have been recruited by the Star league to defend the frontier against Xur and the Codan armada."

Description: One of those special moments between mice. Ayanna falls asleep after listening to Aran's heart beat. Was part of an RP that took place on the MUCK. Saddly, I wasn't there to witness it. All the same I was glad to deliver this request. Still have plenty to do. So, those of you who have asked for one, don't give your hopes up. I still struggle with composition. It takes a while. Well, hope you like it, Hiro. Cheers.

Description: Normally, Raziel wears battle gear of some sort or another. When she's not on duty, she has to wear something casual. So, I came up with a simple shirt for her. I figured since Raziel prefers flexibility and mobility, I should make it not very big and cover very little. It's stylish and not restrictive at the same time. Hope you like it, Lou. Thank you for your picture.
Submitter: DB
Description: It all started with the guards beefing up their armor. Now, they've added fighters to their arsenal. Thorn Valley now has a couple flight squadrons to protect their colony. Presenting the RF-1 Viper. Very fast and maneuverable. Has three thrust engines for maximum speed and controll. Twin 30mm cannons paired with twin 45mm cannons. Next to those are four all purpose missiles, for long range, short range, air-to-air, and air-to-ground strikes. Have fun pilots!

Description: Been away for a while and as my first act, I drew a picture of Tzolkin playing with a ball. Just an idea I got while mucking. Hope you like this, Tzol. I like cats a lot. So, you'll have to excuse the claws. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Speed Demons, Beware. Who's shoes are those?
Submitter: DB
Description: Timothy and Jenny are united in Thorn Valley. One of the things Justin orders, is that they get washed up and then get clean clothes. This was more of a suggestion from Simon but I took it as a request. It is something that happens in NIMH's Stranger, so what the heck, right? Well, enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Been a while since I've drawn any Foxes. This is what I thought Elem and Lou would look like as foxes from an unfinished story I have called 'Foxtrot Alpha'. The official characters from that story look pretty much like these two, so I thought I would draw Elem and Lou like them. I hope you all enjoy. I hope Louise enjoys this, too. Please tell me what you think. I will take requests from people who want to see their characters the same way, if they wish. Cheers.
Submitter: DB
Description: Lou is a very beautiful mouse. I wanted to draw something that reflected that again. Hopfully this one LOOKS they way it's supposed to. This is supposed to be peacful, calm, and snuggly. That, and I wanted to do my own 'holding' scene. I hope you like this one, Lou. Enjoy.

Enjoy.

Description: There's been a high demand for pictures of Elem and Lou, lately. All of them coming from Louise, of course. But, I gladdly do them for her. Because of the up-coming holiday, I will be doing a number of romance pics of couples. So, if anybody wants their couples displayed, please leave your requests in your comments. I've got lot's of time. So, please leave your suggestions. Hope you like this, Louise. You asked ;). Enjoy.

Description: For Kelsey's player, Monika Spence. I sort of tweaked her design a bit. As Martin explained, her sword was wave shaped and concealed with in her cape.

Description: I've said it before. Lou is just a Lovely mouse. Now, I've seen the real Lou and she is gourgous. Not over the top. Not flashy. Not trying to look pretty. Doesn't have to. She has a humble beauty which is rare. So, this picture is based off of her real appearence. Not exact, but based off of it. Thank you Louise. You are very pretty. Hope you like this. It was a joy and honor. Enjoy.

Description: Justin's apprentis, Tristan. Can't you tell? He's wearing Justin's old uniform. Had to trim the sleeves in order to match both sides. One of the youngest of the rats in the colony mentioned in NIMH's Stranger. Quite scrawny and always getting into trouble of some kind or other. Always mannages to get out of trouble, obviously. He just isn't really lucky, but then he is. His Father is a metals master and crafts all kinds of stuff. He will gladdly forge custom weapons for any rat who isn't satisfied with their current weapon. His mother is a teacher in the advanced course. Tristan's brother is an artist. His works can be veiwed all over the colony. He has an attraction to a certain young rat guard named Raziel. She really isn't impressed with him and she's older than he is, too. Rapta might find this 'kid' a tempting target to off, if Gillin weren't around to watch over the little guy. But, he and Justin are like brothers. Justin has something planned for this kid who reminds him of himself when he was that young. He just needs to shape up.

Description: Raziel in a Dress? She can handle it, but being a guard and a warrior type, it is just not her cup of tea. Laura insisted she wear her cousin's sister's wedding dress for a special occasion. Because of Laura's persistence, Raziel gave in. There was a bow on it before, but Raziel didn't like it and it had to go. She was just going to wear a shirt orriginally. Plans change. Raziel looks quite dashing in a dress, don't you think? Hope you like this Louise. Thank you for your pictures and I hope to see more. Enjoy.

Description: Simon, Newton, and Brutus all convened in the main entrance hall. Brutus suited up in his standard armor. Newton carried along nearly all of the suplies in a back pack. Simon packed away Gabriel's outfit in his bag and took it with him. He figured, when he rescued Gabriel, he would want his bag and his clothes. Simon checked everything over once more just to be sure, "Alright, do we have everything?" He asked anxiously. Brutus just nodded. "We have everything we need for the trip. We're all set, for the last time, Simon." Newton confirmed. "Okay. Now, I know the general direction that machine went and I can track it from there. I know what sort of tracks to look for, so we should be able to follow it. We're going to rescue our little brother, no matter what the cost." Simon vowed. He looked over them once more and they all nodded. "Right. Let's get going. Not a moment to lose." Simon said confidently. Then they all went out the main entrance. When they exited, they noticed the sun was beginning to set. It was well into the afternoon and would soon be evening. They easily made their way through the brambles as they had practiced many times before. They even hewed away some of the thorns to make it a little easier for them to navigate. They even passed through a snake trap flawlessly. Their weight was not enough to set it off, so they were quite safe. It was constructed from the brambles themselves, so it was well hidden. Finally, they cleared the bramble field and started to move into the old woods. Simon pointed out holes in the ground and identified them as the machine's tracks. They then proceeded to follow them, with Simon in the lead and Brutus taking up the rear guard. Their Journey Begins...

Description: "What? How is that possible?" Newton reacted. "This spidery looking machine came and took him away! See? His clothes were stripped away. That thing took him, Newton! It took him! He's gone and it's my fault!" Simon cried out. Newton looked in disbelief as he saw the garments of his younger brother in Simon's arms. He was shocked to find that it was true. Brutus was standing behind Newton looking very confused. Newton didn't know what to say. He didn't know how to react to Simon's discovery. He especially didn't know how to console him. Simon stood up straight and looked at both rats serriously, "I'm going to get him back." he informed. "WE are going to get him back, aren't we Brute?" Newton informed in return. Brutus nodded and walked over to the armory rack and put the bow-staff away. "Simon, we'll help you. You can count on that. We need to pack some suplies. Which way did this machine go?" Newton said. "Uhh...North West, I think. If I didn't get that right, I'll track it. I know how." Simon said excitedly. "Understood. Give us a minute to get prepared. Who ever is responsible for taking our brother isn't going to take him with out a fight. Come on, Brute." Newton motioned. All three rats left the gym and headed to their quarters to prepare for their chase...

Description: Gabriel was gone. He was taken away somewhere. That spider thing had a good lead and was possibly far away now. But, Simon was going to get his brother back. He was going to track that thing to wherever it was going. But he wasn't going to go alone. He needed to get help. He needed the help of his brother, Newton. So, Simon rushed back inside the colony to look for Newton. He ran as fast as he could, ignoring the other rats calling after him in their confusion. If anything, Newton was probably going to Brutus to help find Gabriel when the two brothers split up. So, Simon was on his way to the gymnasium where the guards went to work out and practice their fighting. He went around the east corridor on the first ring and headed into the core. He ran across the walkway and into the main silo. He took a left into the third recreation room. It was a short cut. He ignored all the rats in there swimming or sitting in one of the hot tubs. He went out the exit and took a right into the locker room. Raziel greeted him but he just nodded in her direction as he passed. After he exited the locker room, he went right again and entered the gym. Sure enough, that's where he found Newton. He was already talking to Brutus about helping him find their brother. Simon rushed to Newton and took him by the shoulder, "Newton! Gabriel has been kidnapped." Simon said frantically...
Submitter: DB
Description: Simon rushed out the front gate and into the maze of brambles. He looked to his left and then to his right. He couldn't see Gabriel anywhere. He went a little further through the jumble of thorns, looking high and low. Then he heard a scream in the distance. He recognised that scream as belonging to his brother and ran in that direction. He weaved and ducked through the collection of thorns that every rat in the colony was familiar with. He was making his way closer to the sound of the screams. He tripped over something. When he got up, he found that it was Gabriel's bag. He picked it up and continued on in a hurry. As he got closer to the screams, he heard other noises. Strange noises like the whining of an electric motor. That was odd. He ducked under one more limb and saw it. His brother was gripped by a strange metalic tenticle. His clothes were stripped from him and he was being pulled in closer to the most terrifying thing Simon had ever laid eyes on. It was a metal sphere that had a glass dome for an eye. It had four sharp looking legs to walk with. It looked like a spider. This spider was dragging Gabriel toward it. Simon was petrified with fear. He wanted to run after Gabriel and save him, but his legs wouldn't move. He wanted to yell after him, but his breath was stolen away. All he could do was watch. Finally, Gabe was forced inside the machine through a hatch in the back of the sphere and it took off in a hurry. It managed to navigate the thorns flawlessly. Simon watched as the machine dissapeared into the dense field of brambles that the valley was infested with. He slowly walked over to Gabe's slain attire and picked it up. A tear ran down his cheek. It was time to do something drastic. He was going to get his brother back...

Description: For Ferisha. This is my version of a friendly stroll between Brutus and April. As I intend for Brutus to remain silent, April does all the talking. I was told that she would basically be a chatterbox while talking with Brutus. He isn't the least bit annoyed with her either. Not easy to tell with that helmet on, is it. I see these two really hitting it off. Thank you for that picture of Isis, Ferisha. I hope you like this picture of April. Enjoy.

Description: Isis' outfits seem to be getting more complicated as they come. This is my way of repaying Marcus for his interesting short story between Isis and Vincent.

Thank you, Marcus for drawing Isis again. Ferisha, I have a picture in the mix for you. I will thank you as well, for drawing your rather dashing picture of Isis. I enjoyed it tremendously. Enjoy.

Description: I can only assume Tenken hasn't found his family yet. Laura has taken up the task of being Tenken's mother. She is a very kind and loving girl. Indeed she has a crush on Justin, but she cares for those in need. Particularly, she cares for little mice who are in need. In this case, it is Tenken who has been seperated from his family. Being as loving as she is, Laura adopted Tenken and vowed to take care of him. She promissed he would be reunited with his family if it's the last thing she does. Sure, he's burried his paws in her fluff. She doesn't mind. She likes it and you know itXD Anyways, there's a new mouse living as a guest in Thorn Valley like Rick. Have fun, little guy. Hope you like it, Tenken. Cheers.

Description: Newton enjoying company with some of the females of Thorn Valley. This is one of the Recreation rooms of the colony. At first, it was a room exclusive to the guards. But, they spend most of the day on duty. So, during the day the ladies enjoy the room. That's not what they do all day, they have other activities. Now, since Marcus did a few 'bath' scenes, I thought I'd get into the spirit and have Newton talk with Kristin who considders him to be a good friend. Laura is playing with the scrub brush and turns her fun onto Newton who doesn't seem to be aware. There are a number of other rats joining in the hot-tub and some that are waiting. In the background is April who notices Newton and is trying to get his attention. I know it may look a little kinky, but they're rats. They don't care. I know what you're asking, "Have they no shame?" My answer is 'no'. Well, not the same kind we are used to. This was a fun scene and an excuse to draw Laura. Hope you all find this to be fun and draw similar occurances. If not similar, then exact occurances with your own characters. Enjoy.

Description: Faith,the youngest Gelithane Daughter. She is the most cheerful girl in the whole family. She doesn't say much, but when she does, it's quite profound. She is also the cutest in Elem's family. She is very encouraging. When Faith met Lou, she latched on to her as her best friend. Lou tried to resist. No good. Cuteness is a very powerful drug and Lou is an adict. So, here is Faith, being exactly that. CUTE!!!

Description: Isis. She figures she is the perfect creature. She figures she is compleet. But, after her meeting with Vincent in the hot springs, she felt something. Like something was missing and Vincent gave her a taste of it. She felt compassion, affection, and comfort. She is now trying to recreate that feeling through her stone. Trying to recall the memory of their meeting. She is sadened for some reason when the memory of this mouse is played back in her mind. She clutches her hands to her breast as if to hold something that isn't there. She is locked in a sadness. Suppose, she misses him? Missing. Just missing.

Description: It seems our hero, Marcus Lindemann, is sick. So, I thought I'd draw a 'get well' picture. Here, Foxy is trying to take care of Vincent. Yes, this is what he normally looks like. Not quite superhero material, but it works. I have no idea what he's telling Vincent, but it doesn't look interesting. Hamsters with Nikes don't always have the most fascinating stories. Anyways, get well, Marcus. We miss you and wish you well. Sorry, this wasn't colored. Spur of the moment, I'm afraid. Enjoy.

Description: It's Raziel. Training to be a guard in the Thorn Valley Colony. She is exceptionally beautiful and handles her sword as such. I liked the silvery white of her fur and hair. So, I tried to draw as much of it as I could. Therefor, she is not wearing her usual outfit. Although, her outfit looks good. I also wanted to show the graceful side of Raziel. Hope you like it, Louise. I tried my best to portray her warrior attitude. Enjoy.

Description: For Elizabeth Sellars, I gift to her, Symphony. Symphony was an old character of mine that really didn't develop by much. She was a husky when I first drew her and an anthromorph. She was also a Heroine. Her weapons included a conductor's baton and musical note throwing stars. She, in fact, was a composer who wrote music for night shows. She wrote the music of the night:) Then she lost her job on account that her latest composition was stolen and played at a compeeting theater. After she lost her job, she killed the other composer who she suspected stole her music. After that she went on to fight criminals. She loves to play the Violen and the Cello. But, most of all, she loves to write symphonies. Her skill with the baton is so precise, she can cut a Trebblecleft into your chest with the flick of her wrist. So, now she is in rat form and she is for Elizabeth. She can either be the hero she was supposed to be or another villianess. Your choice, Liz:) She does have a real name, but I'll leave it up to Liz to decide what it is. I hope she has fun with this character, for I know how she likes music. Enjoy, Elizabeth. Name: Symphony(Alias) Species: Rat Fur color: Gray and white Eye color: Sky Blue Hair color: Blond with streaks of magenta Gender: Female

Description: My gift to Marcus. Actually, it's to Rapta. A little baby girl rat. I thought it might be funny to have Rapta wake up with something that wasn't there before. But, it is also a practical idea. Someone who has no family and no home. Someone who calls Rapta 'mother'. Now, what could be the outcome of this innocent, helpless child? Another snack? Or something that Rapta could truely hold dear? Marcus will decide. It would be a shame if this poor thing winds up being corrupted by 'mother'. But, maybe Rapta will spare her that? Who can tell? Marcus, for all your hard work, here's a little girl. Yes, those are tears under her eyes. Her name is what you make it. Enjoy, my friend. Name: Unknown Species: Rat Fur color: Grey, white and a brown eye-patch on the left eye. Eye color: Red(right) Gray(left) Hair color: Gray Gender: Female

Description: The search for Gabriel began. Newton and Simon split up. Newton said he was going to get Brutus to help since he could deploy the guard in the effort. Simon started with the North west catwalk and worked his way into the core of the colony. He talked to hundreds of rats who said they didn't see Gabriel. Simon checked all the usual places Gabriel would likely be. He was not there. Simon was now getting worried and began to run. He passed many rats along the way, not even bothering to ask them if they saw Gabe. Finally, he met up with a guard in training named Tristan. He told Simon that he last saw Gabe heading for the exit a half hour ago. That was it. Gabriel was outside the colony. Probably working his way through the maze of thorns by now. Simon's confidence spiked and he ran toward the exit to try and catch up with his brother...
Submitter: DB
Description: Simon was all alone on the catwalk in the common hall. Rats went there to unwind, eat, and watch some of the waterfalls. Simon was the least of the rats to unwind. The fight he had with Gabriel kept playing back in his mind. Each time he heard his own words echo back in his ears, he felt worse. He was no longer angry. Instead he was feeling guilty. He heard other rats around him enjoying themselves. They were laughing, eating, having conversations, and some couples were kissing. That was not helping any. Finally, Newton showed up and joined him by the railing. "Hey, Simon. What's up?" Newton asked. "I had a fight with Gabe." Simon replied sadly. Newton's expression changed to one of concern. "You had a fight? About what?" he asked. "I wanted him to go to the collectors about some soil. He refused and...I lost it. I said no one needed him." Simon said. "What? How could you say that? He's our little brother. Don't you know how stressful his job can be sometimes?" Newton asked. "I know, I know. I wasn't thinking. I screwed up. Ever since I started taking that medicine, I've been irritable from time to time." Simon said. "That's just an excuse. I think something else was bothering you." Newton replied. "Maybe so. But, normally I would have let it go. This time...I felt like strangling him. I don't know why. It wasn't like me." Simon explained. "Wait, are you saying there may be side effects to the meds?" Newton asked. "Perhaps. But that's not important. What's important now, is that I hurt Gabe." Simon said. "Well, then you should go appologise to him. If you're feeling that bad, then you should tell him you're sorry." Newton said. "Yeah, but I think he'll be to angry to want to talk to me, anyways. I'll just talk to him tomorow." Simon said. "He could still be angry tomorow. You talk to him now, while you're still thinking about it. Let's go find him and straighten this out. C'mon, I'll help you." Newton said. Simon straightened up, "Yeah, you're right. Let's go." He said and they left to go find him...

Description: Simon was breathing deeply. He felt like hitting his little brother. He couldn't do it. "Fine! You know what? I don't need you. The Colony doesn't need you. Just tell me, Gabe, Who needs you?" Simon said darkly. Gabriel's eyes narrowed as anger welled up inside him. A tear slid down his cheek, "I...am not useless. You...are on your...own." Gabe said between angry breaths. Then they turned from eachother. Simon stayed where he was and Gabriel left at a rapid pace. He waved his hand in Simon's direction as if to slam a door. Simon was alone with only the sound of the trickling water to acompany him. His brother was gone...
Submitter: DB
Description: Gabriel drew back a step, "You mean, Justin's going to be all over your tail. I'm not apart of this project. Besides, your the one in charge. Why don't you do it your self?" Gabe asked. "I need to stay here to make sure everything works right. I can't leave without knowing everythings gonna' be all right when I'm gone." Simon explained. "It will be all right, Simon. It's not going anywhere. Besides, why don't you get Newton to do it?" Gabe said. "I don't see Newton here. Maybe you do, but I don't. So, how's he gonna' help?" Simon asked as he turned to face his brother. "That's not funny, Simon. If you think your offbeat sense of humor is going to persuade me to do it, you are sadly mistaken." Gabe said as he stepped closer to Simon. "I wasn't trying to be funny. This is serious. Besides, when did I have an offbeat sense of humor? Ahhgh! I don't have time for this. Just do it." Simon said. Gabriel raised his hands in the air and stood up to his full height, "Why am I everyone's lacky? Isn't it enough that I take messages to people all day long for a living? Must everybody assume that since I deliver things that I am somehow a 'go-fer'? My work is hard. Don't they figure that when my shift ends that I'll be done for the day? I don't need that from them and I don't need it from you!" Gabe began to shout. Simon stood his full height and put a hand up, "Stop! You're not making this easy for anyone. I just need you to do this one thing and then you can go home. Do you understand? I just need a favor. Can you do me a favor? Brother?" Simon finished. "Don't do that! It's bad enough that I'm already small. It's worse when you remind me by making me feel small. I'm not going to take it this time. You back down." Gabe said angrily. "Hey! Watch it! You were asking how I was today. I was just fine until now! Why don't you ever take things easy? What? Do you need to feel like the big guy? Get over it! Life's not fair! Now, just go and take some responsibility with you!" Simon began to shout. "Responsibility?!! What have I been doing all day? Maybe those glasses of yours have failed because you don't seem to notice when your little brother works his hide off!" Gabe shouted. Simon stepped closer, "Gabriel? Do you remember what happened to Hiro? Or what happened to Rick? I've got that problem under controll right now, but it doesn't mean I can't still do that! Do you want to be next? Just push it, little brother. I mean it, I'm warning you." Simon growled. "Go ahead! Then you won't have your lacky around to get your precious soil!" Gabe said right in Simon's face...

Description: -Four Days Earlier- The Thorn Valley colony had a massive agriculture facility. One such structure was known as 'The Sunflower Project'. It was a 18 level internal building that siphoned off light and water from the outside into the building. There were exacly twenty sunflowers growing in the facility. Each grew out of a wooden box frame that had fresh soil and a water sleux feeding into it from the higher levels. Simon Tesla was very fond of this project. About a year ago, he proposed the idea to Justin which was then aproved. With in a month the structure was compleet and the first few sunflowers were planted. They had grown succesfully each year without fail and each time the rats would harvest the seeds. Today, Simon seemed dissapointed. Something was not right. He checked the soil in shaft twelve and sifted it through his fingers. He then sniffed the soil sample after he collected it in his hand. "That's not right." He mumbled to himself. But he was not alone. His brother, Gabriel, was standing right behind him, "Hey, Simon. What's up? I'm off my shift now." he said with a shrug. "Mmm-hmmm" Simon acknowleged vaguely. Gabe raised an eyebrow, "So...are you feeling better?" he asked carfully. "Oh, fine. Ages has me on something that will help. I'm supposed to take it for a month." Simon responded while he continued to pass the soil through his hands. "You aren't...you know...are you?" Gabe asked. "Doubt it. Hey, could you run over to the collectors and ask them if they could bring back some fresh soil?" Simon asked. Gabe looked surprised, "Simon?! That's clear on the other side of the colony. I have to run all the way around the ring just to get there. I'm not gonna' bust my tail some more just to get some fresh soil. I came here to see you and talk." Gabe objected. "They don't know that you're off duty. It won't take that long. Once you deliver the message you can go home. It's that simple." Simon said. "But I wanted to talk with you. I hardly get to see you half the week. I thought we could have some fun." Gabe explained. "Later. This is more important, Gabe. This flower will die if we don't give it new soil. Justin will be on both our tails if that happens." Simon explained...

Description: Said I would and I did. Here she is, Illyria. I took the liberties of designing some of her weapons while I was at it. A dagger, a couple of sies, and what I call a 'Rat tail disk'. I hope Liz likes it. She made a very pretty character. I figure the 'dream' part of the title refers to Kell daydreaming of this young beauty as he returns to the group. After this, I'm going to get back on track with the adventure. Hope you like it, Elizabeth. Enjoy:)

Description: Me and my dearest enjoying a relaxing nap in a hot spring. He flaters me with such well drawn images. I wish to encourage him to do more. I especially want him to draw me in my total glory. I think he is shy about drawing my figure from the front. So, I give him close inspection and treat him to a swim. He is like teddy bear in my arms. He is good to hold. I do not mind the contact, if that is what you were wondering. I am a rat, after all. If he was a rat...I don't know. Please, my dearest, draw more. I will pose for you, if you wish. I do not mind. Just say the word. I think you find it in your best interest. Isis-

Description: In light of Marcus' looking back, I figured I should honor his villianess by giving her a new outfit. Actually, it was given to her by Isis. They're like sisters...apparently. I'd suggested a new outfit a while ago and never really followed through with my plans. I hope she enjoys her gift from Isis. I also recently wondered what she would look like holding a staff weapon from Stargate. So, I delivered on that as well. Rapta is my favorite villianess as I'm sure she is for the rest of the valley. Marcus really created a masterpiece...or monster? Well done, MAL. She is the true ultimate villianess in Thorn Valley. You needn't not repay me for this nor any works I have done for you. Your friendship is payment enough. Enjoy. Note: I didn't ecactly fill in a few details and I didn't shade everything. But, I did put her left hand on the right way. Cheers!

Not to do her harm, but to perhaps impress her. Made little difference. She came in fast, they struggled for a while and then she made her final plunge. Kell braced for the pain and it passed. He looked into her eyes and smiled, "Charmed." he said while gripping her arm. She withdrew the blade dripping with a strange silver liquid. She was puzzled. Puzzled that this rat was still alive. Then she was left alone with out a scratch on her. "Kell." was the last thing she heard before she was left by herself. Strange, very strange.

Description: All right, Ladies! Listen up. This is the standard wear of the soldiers of the UNSC. Since marines are commonly mice, I'll start with them. This is standard armor. Sure, it's not much. But it will keep up against numerous blows from those plasma weapons. It wont protect from a shot to...let's say...your face. It will also do little to keep your rumps from being blown up by explosives! Skill and training will more than likely save your butts in battle. The Rats take the place of our ODST soldiers. Their armor is tougher and more durable. That doesn't make them the beef of the battle. We marines bust our butts so these pretty boys can drop in without being blown out of the sky by enemy fire! We wear our armor with pride and dignity. If we die, it's not going to be while sitting on our tails eating french fries! If we die, it will be doing what we do best. Kicking Covenant tail! Am I right?!! Uh-huh, darn right! Now, gear up! We've got presents for those covenant pukes. We're gonna' give 'em a belly full of bullets and a pool of their own blood to drown in!

Description: Pick up your tongues, Marines! You're making a mess. I know what you're thinking. You all want one of those. With suply comes demand. Unfortunatly, suply is something the UNSC doesn't have much of. These two special weapons are rare. First we have the Plasma gun. It is the UNSC's efforts of matching the Covenant's marine BBQing plasma weapons. Sure, it's bulky and a little heavy, but that's the idea! This sucker produces a charge big enough to light a circus and lobbs it into a groupe of Grunts sorry they were even born! I know it's slow, but it's worth it. Hitting one unsuspecting Elite with this baby will reduce him to a smoking pair of boots, shields or no! Then we have everbody's favorite: The flame thrower. Watch where you point it and try not to walk into it when it's on, if you have half a brain to think with. Next, we have the standard Fragmentation grenade. Also known as a "Fraggie". Each soldier can carry up to four at a time. The idea is to throw the thing after you pull the pin. ONI will be pissed if they catch you blowing yourselves up! Then we have the Grenade shells. These babies are exclusive to the battle rifle. Remember to arc the shot to more acuratly hit your target. Last on the list: Gauss rounds. The Gauss cannon is exclusive to the MA-407a1. Load one into the bottom barrel and let it rip! These babies have the tendency to hit their target in the same instant you pull the trigger. Be sure to aim it at the enemy! I will personally kick your tail if you shoot me! Do I make myself clear?!! Good! Now, quit sucking your thumbs and let's get out and play with the enemy! Sgt. Johnson-

Description: Finally, the last drone fell. Lou and Elem stood their weapons up in the snow and sat down beside eachother. They were both cold and fatigued. "Well...that was...extensive." Elem said between breaths. Lou nodded, "I think...you mean to say...that was easy." she said. "Yeah...that too." Elem replied. The fighting was indeed extensive. They both had blood on them and a couple scratches. Lou, particularly, had a scratch on her right haunch. Elem noticed how dirty Lou was and had a playful idea, "Here, you've got something on your face." he said as he leaned in closer. "What? What is it?" Lou asked in wonder. "Just hold still." Elem smiled. Then he began to lick Lou's cheek, "Oh, no no no. Ahh ahahahahaha. No, stop. Ahah hahahaha. I mean it, stop. Elem, Elem, no. Hahaha." Lou giggled. Then she submitted and pulled Elem into her, looping her legs around his waist. All the while they forgot how cold they were, not noticing the house in the distance and the chip in the snow...

Description: The drones attacked and Elem and Lou were already deep in action. One drone rat came up from behind Lou, but his advance was cut short by a slice across the neck from Lou's halberd. She then looped the weapon around from her back to her front to cut across the waist of an advancing mouse drone who was leaping through the air. Elem had already hewn the head of a rat in front of him. Then he jabbed his energised staff under his arm and directly into the rat behind him. A gerbil was now jumping over the fallen dron and about to tackle Elem, when Lou's blade came across the drone's ear. The ear was cut free. In addition the small beacon in the back of it's neck was cast to the ground. The gerbil looked shocked and held the back of it's head in pain and then scampered off wildly. Lou and Elem were engaged in the most energetic dance of movement. The looped their weapons in numerous arcs and circles. Each of their opponents fell as they approached. The two mice were moving along at blinding speeds almost too fast for the eye to track. They might have been able to move faster if it wasn't for the snow. Their opponents were being reduced in numbers but still advancing. They didn't seem to know retreat or even grievence. They just kept on coming with out the slightest regard for their lives. Elem then watched as Lou kicked a mouse. He was about to inform her that kicking or punching wasn't going to sway them. Then he noticed that the mouse curled over in pain and when Lou's foot withdrew, there was a blood stained blade under her foot. She had a hidden snap-blade under her foot. Clever. Then the battle raged on...

Description: Elem and Lou awoke the next morning feeling refreshed. They had a small breakfast and then geared up to get under way again. When they dropped down from the bush, their feet met a sheet of snow. It was covering everything, including the bush they were using for shelter. "Wow." Lou marvled. So, they proceeded on, trudging through the snow. Once again they were holding hands on their journey. Elem noticed Lou's hair again and was about to ask how it changed, when he noticed something very frightening. Lou stopped and noticed it too. It was a bunch of wild rodents. They were rats, mice and even gerbils. They each had a flashing red light behind one of their ears. "Drones!" Elem exclaimed. "Drones?" Lou asked. "Yes, they're from SLATE. They're under their controll. They are verry dangerous. They must be trying to re-capture me. They'll kill you if it suits them." Elem hastily explained. "Oh." Lou said calmly as she sprung into a defensive posture...

Description: About a half hour after Elem warmed Lou up, they decided it was time to sleep. Lou nonchalantly curled up in Elem's lap. Elem instictivly held Lou in close. As a means of support, Lou looped her right foot around Elem's waist so as to get comfortabel. Then their tails curled around one another. Elem accepted that Lou was using him for support, so he cooperated and tucked his nose between her ears. She then fell asleep after kissing Elem on the cheek. Elem kissed her back and returned his nose to it's previous place. He cradled her protectively. As always, she felt very good in his arms. He was going to do his best to insure a goodnight's sleep for her. So he kept absolutly still, save for his breathing which was helping to warm her. He sat there, looking about. He was thinking a long while. Thinking about her, the journey, and his family. Finally, he thought about SLATE. They were just attacked by a hunter bot. They successfully turned it into a junk heap, but Elem had other concerns about SLATE. He could tell, they were out to retrieve him and return him to the lab. They would possibly kill Lou in order to do that. Either that or capture her as well. He wasn't going to let that happen. He loved her too much for that. After a while, he grew weary. He heard noises nearby. Noises of movement. He looked over at his staff. It was there if he needed it. He looked at Lou. He was going to protect her from any of the noises of the cold, moon-lit, night. He was now praying for sweet dreams for her...

Description: After they kissed, Elem and Lou huddled together with their arms around one another. Elem looked up throught the leaves and needles of the bush and saw the moon above. He also noticed snowflakes falling. A breeze ran through the bush and gave both mice a chill. Elem's ears got cold, so he put his hood up. Lou, on the otherhand, didn't have a hood on her. So, Elem was concerned about her getting cold, but he didn't say anything at the moment. He noticed that Louise untied the ribon around her hair and tucked it away in her pack. She let her hair drape around her shoulders and it was then that Elem noticed that more of her hair had changed white. He was going to ask, but when he felt Lou shiver he grew more concerned with her well-being. "Are you cold?" he asked gently. Lou shook her head, "I don't-think so." she said. Elem leaned in and licked her nose twice, "You are." he noted. "It's nothing. I'll get warmer. I've got you, remember?" she smiled. "Yes, you have me. Now, I'm gonna' make you warm." Elem said with a determined look. "I need you to remove your bandages. The ones on your arms." he instructed. Lou leaned away from him and took of the coverings on her arms. Elem took her hands and clasped them in his. "Now, hold on. This may feel a little intense at first." Elem warned. "But-" Lou started but was suddenly hit by a surge of heat coursing through her body. It was a shock to her. Her breath was taken away as each cell in her body was being energised. It was a tingling sensation. She was feeling much warmer now. It was both surprising and wonderful at the same time. Aparrently, Elem was using the stone to channel energy through his body to her's. Another shurge cam and this time Lou lulled back and gasped, "Oh my God!" she breathed. For almost thirty seconds, Elem held the transfer. Then it was over and the light around them faded. Lou collapsed into Elem's arms and let out a deep breath. To Elem, she felt like she had just come out of a dryer. Even her hair was warm. She eased herself up off of his shoulder and looked into Elem's eyes, "Wow! That was amazing." she said. Then she smiled coyly, "Do it again." she said...

Description: The day went on pleasently after the four rodents got on the move. Kell was holding Ayanna and Ryell was holding Tzolkin. Ryell and Tzolkin were keeping their distance, watching as Ayanna conversed with Kell. They appeared to be enjoying themselves. "I see she's made a fast friend." Tzolkin grumbled. "You are unhappy about your sister's choice?" Ryell asked. "I told you I don't trust him. Who can tell what he's up to? I mean, think about it. A strange rat finds us and tells us he knows Vincent and then takes us off to go meet him. Doesn't anything about that sound peculiar to you?" Tzolkin said. "He does seem friendly." Ryell posed. "Looks can be deceiving. If he's so friendly, how come he had to hide from us? Why did he need to sneak up on us? Something's out of place. He's up to something, I can smell it." Tzolkin said. "Well, look at your sister for a moment. Can't you see how she is taking to him?" Ryell asked. "I can't see at all. I can only hear them." Tzolkin informed. "You are blind? But how did you know where he was before he appeared?" Ryell asked. "I can tell. Being blind doesn't make me deaf or unable to smell. I could hear his footfalls." Tzolkin explained. Ryell nodded, "Strange that I could not. I wonder how it is that you could pick up his aproach and we couldn't." Ryell posed. "Well, it's more than that. I could sort of...see things in a different way. I can't explain it. It's like my eyes are able to pick up certain things. So, in a sense I could see him. But not as you do. That's all I can come up with. Besides, I've had plenty of practice of finding my way around. My sister helped me with that." Tzolkin explained. Ryell nodded, "I see. You aren't comfortable with your sister becoming fast friends with Kell. What about me? Do you not trust me? Do you not consider me a 'fast friend'? It was only the other day that you were sleeping in my arms. You weren't sure of me then. Why are you comfortable with me now?" Ryell asked. "Ummm...uhh..." Tzolkin strugled. It seemed he was caught with a tricky question. He had to admit he was caught off guard. It was true. At first he didn't trust Ryell. Now, he let her hold him, like he was her child. It was also true that he felt close to her. Yet he was stumped with her question. "That's okay. You don't have to answer that. I understand." Ryell said quietly. Tzolkin was now feeling guilty. He figured by Ryell's tone, that her feelings were hurt a bit...

Description: It was now morning and time for the three rodents to wake up. Ryell was the first to do so. She was puzzled to find that Tzolkin ceased his neading and purring. She smiled and licked his cheek. He stirred and woke up with a yawn. Ayanna woke up instinctively after him. Both were rubbing their eyes and grooming themselves. Ryell sat up and began to groom herself, when she felt something was out of place. "Someone's here." she cautioned. The two mice stopped what they were doing and listened, angling their ears in every which way. "She's right. Someone is coming." Tzolkin said quietly. Then out of nowhere, a figure appeared not too far from them. It was a tall rat with strange armor. He was pressing his finger against something on his arm gauntlet, "Great. Just great. Not as stealthy as I once was. Could have sworn nobody could hear me." He muttered to himself. At the sight of the rat, Ryell urged Tzolkin to huddle between her haunches in a protected manner. Ayanna was about to join him but she was scooped up by the strange rat, "Eeeep!" she squeeked. Ryell reached out for her to try and take her back, but she was now in the grasp of the rat. He planted her on his shoulder while laughing joyusly, "Hey now. Hey. It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you little mouse." he said assuredly. "See? I'm friendly." he said. Ayanna gulped her breath down, "Who-who are you?" she asked while she began to settle on the rat's shoulder. "I want to know who you are, as well." Ryell chipped. The rat raised an eyebrow, "Oh. Ehem! Kell Leinad, at your service." he said with a fake accent and assuming a charming pose. Ryell looked unsure of him, as did Tzolkin who finally untucked his head from Ryell's belly. "What are you doing out here?" Tzolkin demanded right when Ryell was about to pose the same question. "Well, I hope I have the right mouse. Or as it seems, MICE. Not to mention a rat." Kell smiled. He regarded Tzolkin who still didn't look impressed, "Would you be uhhh...Tzolkin?" asked Kell. Tzolkin looked surprised, "How do you know that name?" he asked trying not to tip his hand. "Well, this other gray mouse..." Kell began but was cut off. "Gray mouse?!!" Ayanna cut in, "Was his name Vincent?" she asked. "Sis, no." Tzolkin warned. "Yeah. He sent me out here to find a gray mouse like him named Tzolkin. You know him?" Kell asked. "Is he alright? Is he hurt? Where is he?" Ayanna asked frantically. "Sis, don't!" Tzolkin pleaded. "Tzolkin, it's about Vincent. He knows where he is. We have to go to him. Please, sir, can you take us to him?" she asked desperately. "Thanks, alot." Tzolkin muttered. "Yes, I can. That's why I'm here. I just wasn't expecting there to be two more. Better get moving." Kell motioned. "Wait. How do we know we can trust you?" Ryell cut in. "Come and find out." Kell offered. Tzolkin was shaking his head but reluctantly followed along with Ryell in tow. He accepted to let her carry him after the pace was quickening. "I don't trust this guy. But he says he knows Vincent and he's got my sister. Untill we know what he's really up to, I think we should go along." he whispered into Ryell's ear. She nodded and tried to match Kell's speed as they proceeded on...

Description: After they finished up their Dandy-Lions, Lou decided to cuddle up with Elem. Elem hugged her and held her hand while placing his hand on her shoulder. She was very lovely and she felt quite warm. Elem couldn't help it any more, "Louise, I want to sing to you. It is a song Ryell taught me and now I want to sing it for you." He said. "Okay." Lou responded. "I know that I loved you the first time I saw you..." Elem began softly. Lou was enchanted with his words. They sounded like a lulaby. It was short but sweet and soothing to her ears. "You'll always be my angel, Louise." Elem finished. Lou hugged him, "Thank you, Elem." she said into his ear. When she withdrew, Elem was looking her in the eyes with a smile on his face, "I have to kiss you now, Louise." he said softly...

Description: Ryell awoke but didn't open her eyes. She was having a wonderful dream about these two mice. Her dream was interupted by the feeling of a constant gripping and releasing of her torso fur. She also heard a quiet clicking noise combined with a slight rumble. Like a vibrating sound. She finally opened her eyes to see little Tzolkin neading the fur under her chest. He was circulating her blood with the motion. She didn't mind it. As a matter of fact she liked it. But she was puzzled by his behavior. She also found the source of the noise. It was coming from him. Every time he inhaled and exhaled the noise would ossilate. It was like a kitten's purring. But how was that so? He was a mouse not a kitten. She decided to let the question go and try to go back to sleep. So, she stroked the back of his head and behind the ears. He shifted and tightened his gripp on her fur. His purring noise grew slightly louder as well. She smiled pleasently and layed back down replacing her arm around his back. She could now understand the possible relationship he had with this Vincent and how they were like family. She felt like a mother caring for her young. She treasured both the little mice and kept them close...

Description: Half the day Tzolkin, Ayanna, and Ryell had been traveling to try and find Vincent. During that time, nothing was said. Except for the humming from Tzolkin's sister, Ayanna. Tzolkin didn't mind his sister's humming. He appeared to be determined to find Vincent and help him in any way he could. Ryell folowed along closly behind the two as they took the lead. After all, she didn't know where they were going. "May I ask how you know wich way to go, little mouse?" she asked. "I just know." Tzolkin grumbled. "You'll have to excuse my brother, miss. He's very secretive. He loves Vincent as if he really was his son. I do too. Couldn't imagine what we'd do with out him. In case you were wondering, I'm Ayanna and this is Tzolkin. We are siblings." Ayanna introduced cheerfully. Ryell nodded, "I am Ryell. I do hope you don't mind me coming along. I would very much like to help. I once again apologise for intruding on your privacy. I needed shelter from the harsh cold winds." Ryell explained. "Oh, that's all right. But we don't take too well to uninvited guests. No one does. I'm sure WE are grateful you joined us, aren't we?" Ayanna nudged her brother. "Uh-huh." Tzolkin vaguely acknowledged. Ayanna rolled her eyes, "He's just a little stuborn. Either that, or he's just focusing too much on Vincent's pain." she said. It was then growing late and the sun had already set. Ayanna pulled Tzolkin to a halt, "We gotta' stop, Tzol. It's getting late. Predators will be out soon. We need to find some place to stop and sleep." she said. Tzolkin nodded and gestured toward a bush to his right. The three of them proceeded to the bush and sat under it. "Gonna' get cold." Tzolkin muttered. "I can provide you a place to sleep. I am big enough for the both of you." Ryell volunteered. "I think once is enough." Tzolkin said. "That wasn't nice, Tzol. She's right, if we huddle together, we can stay warm. She's being very generous. You can be a little more polite by accepting her offer." Ayanna interjected. Tzolkin rolled his eyes, "Okay. For tonight." he reasoned. Ryell layed down on her side and motioned for Tzolkin to curl up under her left arm, "Here." she offered. Tzolkin hessitated, but complied. He tucked his nose into her breast and curled his feet under. Ayanna curled into a ball and rested her head on Tzolkin's left haunch and tucked her arms under her stomach. Then they all fell asleep like they were a family...

Description: Thrashing time was over and the hunter bot was nothing more than spare pieces. Elem and Lou continued on with their journey holding hands once again. It was cold, but Elem didn't feel cold since he was holding Lou's hand. "So, what was that we just scrapped?" Lou asked. "They are called hunter bots. They are sent to study and collect specimens for SLATE. Now, they are either out to recapture me or they are following their primary programing. Whatever the case is, we have to be extra careful. It is likely there are more machines from SLATE on the prowl." Elem explained. Lou nodded, "Hmmm...Is there anything else we have to watch for?" she asked. Elem thought for a second, "Well, there are spotters and drones. Spotters are smaller bots that fly around and spot any possible specimens. Drones will sometimes follow after spotters or hunters if either one is unsucessful. Drones are sometimes wild mice or rats. Mostly rats. They are very dangerous." Elem explained. "Anything we can't handle?" Lou asked. "Seeing how you fight? No, come to think about it. Still have to keep on our toes. That's why I wasn't too wild about sleeping that night. SLATE operatives could catch up with us while we're most vulnerable. I don't want to go there again. I want to put that place as far behind me as possible." Elem said. Then they both noticed something white float down and land in front of Lou's feet, "A snowflake. It's a snowflake. Wow, it's going to snow. Wait...that means we're gonna' need to get to some shelter soon." Elem noted. So, they made their way to a bush that was covered with strage leaves and thorns. Elem helped Lou up the stalk and onto a limb. They sat down next to one another. Elem wedged his staff between a stubb and let it blossom to let out a mild light. Since it was getting dark the light lit up the bush to illuminate all the greens. "Wow." Elem marvled. Then his eyes fell on Lou, "Wow. Lou, you are more beautiful than even the bright green of these leaves." Elem said. Lou smiled, "Thank you. How about something to eat? What do we have?" She asked. "Wait here. I'll go get something." Elem offered as he made his way down the stalk. "Wait, shouldn't I go with you?" Lou asked. "No, you stay here. It's a surprise. Besides, one of us needs to stay here to make sure other creatures don't steal this spot from us. They'd be crazy to mess with you. I'll be right back." Elem said. A few minutes later, Elem returned with two Dandy-lions. He smiled and handed Lou the one that had bloomed more than his. She smiled and began to eat it. Elem sat down next to her but did not eat. He was marveling at Lou's beauty. "They were the best I could find. There aren't too many others left since it's almost winter. I thought you'd like the one that's more in bloom." Elem said. Lou smiled, "Thank you, Elem." she said. "I love you, Louise." Elem said and they ate...

Description: They both turned quickly to find a large metal sphere with a dark lense for an eye, staring them right in the face. Immediatly, Elem let go of Lou's hand and took a defensive posture. Lou was shocked but ready for anything, "What is that thing?" she asked. "Something not good. It's a hunter bot. It's going to try to capture us both and take us to SLATE. I'm not going to let it do that. Are you?" Elem said almost angrily. Lou unsheathed her two hook blades and smiled, "Nope. Play time is over. Now, it's thrashing time." she said. Then she assumed an offensive posture and winked at Elem...

Description: It was later in the afternoon that Elem and Lou awoke. Elem felt extra confident that day after they got up. He found and quickly put on his outfit and then gathered up his staff. Louise was busy putting on an extra outfit she had packed with her. "So, why did you do that? Sleep on me, I mean." Elem asked curiously. "It was cold. Besides, I thought you could use some encouragement. You told me you don't hardly ever sleep. I think it's a conflict." Lou stated with a cheerful smile. "Encouragement? For what?" Elem asked. "To sleep during the night. It's not healthy to stay awake for so long. I thought it could help. Besides, didn't you enjoy it?" Lou said. Elem thought for a second, "Well, it was nice to hold you for so long a time. I guess you could say I enjoyed it. I like the feel of your hair. That's why I like to hold you. I do love you, after all. I think you're right." Elem considered. Lou finished putting on her new outfit and stood up to smooth it out, "Shall we go?" She said sweetly. Elem got up and joined her pace as they started walking. They talked for a while about a few things that didn't seem important. Lou was busy telling Elem another story of hers and Elem was busy listening. They held eachother's hands as they walked. It felt good to hold her hand. It was warm. Besides, the weather was cold, so it helped them keep a little warm. Then Elem shifted his attention to his right. His ears angled to pick up a sound that was coming from right next to them. Lou was still telling her story, but Elem had the feeling they were being watched...

Description: Vincent awoke with his shoulder feeling like it was full of cement. It didn't hurt but it appeared to work just fine. He wondered what time it was, so he tried to find Kell. Kell was next to him sleeping on his side. Vincent put on his tunic and nudged Kell. "I'm awake, kid. How do you feel." Kell said without rolling over to face Vince. "Uhh...fine, I guess. How long was I out?" Vincent asked. "Oh, I'd say about a half hour. I'd say the nanos are finnished with their work. Your shoulder should be as good as new." Kell informed. Vincent was confused, "Nanos?" he asked. "Little robots-I mean, machines. I injected them into your shoulder and they repaired the fracture as well as the hole in your shoulder." Kell explained. Vincent looked shocked, "Little Robots?!! I've got little robots in me? GAH! How do I get rid of them?" Vincent began to freak out. "Just drink some water...lots of water. You'll get rid of 'em." Kell explained plainly. "That's very disconcerting. Just, why was that...thing after me?" Vincent asked. "Hunter bots. They're designed to study and collect specimens. They're not after you, per say. SLATE doesn't care where they get their specimens as long as they get them. However, there must be something special about you, or else it wouldn't have decided to TRY to snatch you." Kell stated. "SLATE?" Vincent asked. "SLATE: Scientific Laborotory and Advanced Technological Experimentation. I'll tell you more later, but right now I'm hungry. How 'bout you?" Kell said. Actually, Vincent was feeling very hungry, "Well...yes. What is there to eat?" Vince asked. "Nothing, so far. I'm gonna' go get something. Is there anything specific you want?" Kell asked. Vince took a minute to think, "I could really go for some blueberries." He answered. "I'll see what I can do. Anything else?" Kell asked. Vincent took another minute to think, "Tzolkin." he muttered. "What's a Tzolkin?" Kell asked. Vincent shook his head, "Tzolkin is my adopted son. He's my friend. I would like to see him. If only I could see him, I could warn him." Vincent said somberly. "I could go get him. Where does he live? What's he look like?" Kell asked. "He lives east of my own home. He's a gray mouse like me. He's a little small and quite young. He's also very protective of me as I am of him. Could you bring him here? Could you?" Vincent asked excitedly. Kell nodded, "Yes. I'll get started right away." Kell informed and began to head out the intake. Vincent stopped him, "Wait! What if one of those things comes while you're away?" he asked urgently. Kell tossed him that strange weapon he had before, "Here, use this. It's a plasma gun. Just aim and press the trigger." Kell explained as Vincent examined the weapon. Then Kell dissapeared...

Description: Tzolkin didn't know what to do. Here he was trapped by this female rat who was using him like a sleeping accessory. He had to admit he was fairly comfortable and quite cozy with her. But, over all he was creeped out. He didn't know who this rat was or what she wanted with him. So he made an effort to wake her. It was little trouble, since the rat awoke easily and sat up, forcing Tzolkin to readjust his posture so as to be sitting on her belly. "Yes?" she asked softly. "Yes? What do you mean, yes? Who are you and what are you doing in my home?" Tzolkin demanded. The rat smiled, "I am Ryell. Please excuse me. I needed shelter from the cold. Yours was the closest. I hope I haven't startled you. I mean you no harm." She said sweetly. Tzolkin was about to voice some more objections, when his sister, Ayanna, came into the room. She stopped and gave a dissaproving look, "Having fun?" she said sarcastically. "Ayanna? This isn't what it looks like. I swear." Tzolkin interjected quickly. "It's exactly how it looks, Tzol. You're in the lap of a strange rat. Might I ask who your girlfriend is?" said Ayanna. Tzolkin shook his head frantically, "She's not my girlfriend! I don't even know her!" he said defensivly. Ayanna laughed, "I know. I was just yankin'. I heard her story when I was coming in." she said. Ryell appeared to be flattered as she was stifling a smile. Tzolkin was nearly enraged, but then he grabbed his shoulder as if in pain. Ayanna and Ryell both looked concerned, "What is it, Tzol?" Ayanna asked. "Dad...he's hurt." Tzolkin explained while still gripping his shoulder. Ayanna's expression of concern grew, "Vincent's in trouble?" she asked. Tzolkin got up off of Ryell and headed for his cloak, "I have to go to him." he said quickly. "You have a friend in trouble? I will come with you. I will help." Ryell volunteered. Tzolkin didn't argue. He put on his cloak and headed out of his home with his sister and Ryell in tow...

Description: Elem awoke suddenly, feeling unusually good this morning. Yet, he felt strange. Somehow, out of place. He felt warmer and heavier. His belly felt larger, as he had his arms around it and they went out a considerable distance from his body. As a matter of fact he couldn’t move his arms to rub his eyes. He felt something under his chin. It wasn’t much, but it was there. He could just barely feel it. Then he forced his eyes open to find Lou stretched out on top of him with a maple leaf serving as a blanket. It was no wonder he thought he gained weight. He was holding Louise. Finally she stirred and raised her nose to meet with his. “Good morning.” Lou said cheerfully but quietly. Elem was confused, “What…what happened?” he asked. “You fell asleep. You fell asleep so sound, in fact, I snuck off to fetch a maple leaf and then came back here. It took a while for me to get both our clothes off, but when I did I had you lay back and I piled on top of you as any mouse would.” She explained playfully. Elem was quite aware that mice would pile on top of each other when they slept. He remembered he used to do it every night when he slept with his family. But he couldn’t understand why Lou decided to do so with him. Then another thought came to his mind, one he wasn’t comfortable with, “Umm…Louise? We didn’t…?” he asked uneasily. “No. I don’t think so. Unless you’re sneaky, too.” She said with a nudge to Elem’s shoulder. Elem shook his head, “Oh, no. Never.” He said. Then another question came to his mind, “Louise? Your hair.” He notified. “Shhhhh. Let’s just go back to sleep. I want to sleep in.” Lou said quietly. Then she slid forward and nestled her head under Elem’s chin once again. The motion evoked a surge of warmth in Elem and he wound up actually pulling Lou into him in a gentle squeeze. In addition his feet curled. It felt natural. It felt good. Good, because Lou was in his arms and that always felt good. So, Elem let go all inquires, smiled and fell back to sleep…

Description: After the tickle torture that morning, Elem and Lou started off again. Elem's tail returned to normal and the day went on with out incident. The two of them stopped briefly to eat in the afternoon because they skipped breakfast. Lou sat on a rock and Elem snuck up from behind her and kissed her on the cheeck. Lou allowed him to rub her shoulders as a means of getting even with her. Then they traveled on into the evening. Elem taught Lou his traveling song that he often sang to himself on his travels by himself. They sang it together, now. Then the sun set into the night and they both stopped. It was cold, so Lou took off her pack and cuddled with Elem. He held her in close and she nessled her head under his chin snug. While Elem held her, he stroked her hair for a long while. She felt at peace in his arms. She almost felt like a part of him. "I love you, Elem." she said with a warm smile. Elem returned her smile, "I love you too, Louise. Good night." he said just as quiet. Then Lou fell asleep in his arms. Oh, it felt good to hold her. As before, Elem didn't want to let go. He looked skyward to look at the stars as he always did. He liked to watch them, because they were so beautiful. They would keep him awake as he would count them, one by one. But something was wrong. His eyes were begining to drop down to Lou. She was so beautiful, he wanted to watch her for a while. Then he looked back at the stars. He was now feeling a little tired. So, he looked back down at Lou. Then his eyes closed and he fell asleep for the first time in a long time. He was dreaming good dreams. Dreams of Louise. But, Louise was being sneaky. She wasn't actually asleep. She got up, careful not to wake Elem and she snuck off. When she came back, she had a maple leaf in her hands and she was smiling deviously...

Description: Vincent felt a jolt of pain every step that Kell took. He was running along with Vincent in his arms. Vincent couldn't take it any longer, "What was that thing?" he bellowed. "Keep it down, will ya'. They're called Collectors, or sometimes known as 'Hunters'. They are designed to examine and aprehend specimens. You were lucky I was around, or you'd find yourself in a very different place." Kell huffed. Kell must have been in tremendous shape, for they were moving along very quickly. They must have covered more than 300 feet by now. Then something came into sight that interested Vin, "What is that?" he asked. "That would be where I'm staying right now." Kell nodded toward the metal structure. It appeared to be a human vehicle, one possibly meant for flying. There was a square opening in the machine that sunk into the ground with the rest of the structure. "This is known as a 'Raptor'. Humans fly them. This one must have been an early prototype. I gather it's been here for a long number of years. It's most likely that each time it rains, the plain sinks deeper into the ground. But it can't go any deeper now. I set up shelter in one of the intakes. I'll fix you up there." Kell explained. Vincent didn't understand all of what he said, but he could fathom some. He was having a hard time thinking, the pain was very strong. He figured his shoulder had been broken. Finally, they were deep inside the intake of the plain, as Kell said. He set Vincent down and removed his garb. He saw Vincent's wound in full and examined it. Kell then took out a dark gray case and opened it. He pulled out what looked like a pen and slipped a green capsule into the slot in the back end of it. Then he jabbed the front end into Vincent's shoulder and Vincent hissed. "There. That should keep you from feeling anymore pain and what I'm about to do." Kell said as he replaced the strange device. Vincent was about to object to any further course of action, when all of the sudden he felt a little dizzy and then very happy. As Kell injected him with another treatment, he bandaged up Vincent's shoulder. It was at that moment that Vincent leaned over in Kell's direction and smiled, "Hello." he said calmly. That caught Kell off guard, "Uhh...Hi." he replied. "Hello." Vincent repeated. Kell was now confused. Vincent looked around at the surrounding structure, "What a beautiful place this is." he said. "Wait a minute...Which one did I give him?" Kell mumbled. Then he leaned over to retrieve the injector and the capsule he used. "Oops." Kell said as he looked at the display that indicated what was in the injector. "I must have given him the good stuff." He figured. Then he injected himself with it and waited. "Yep. It's the good stuff." he said as he rolled his eyes...

Description: After the sound of a snap and a click, Vincent was released. The strange probe was severed from the long cord in a flash. Sparks flew from the seperation point. Then Vincent was scooped up quickly after he hit the floor and was being carried outside. He was being carried by a big male rat. He was wearing strange armor and had tripple blades protruding from a device he wore on his wrists. He was quick and nimble when he avoided the strange sphere shaped machine right outside Vincent's home. It had a lense for an eye and possibly it's core processor. It had retracted the long cord that had the probe and rolled to face the strange rat as it passed. It began to roll toward the two rodents, but was stopped dead in it's belt tracks by a bolt of plasma. A flash of bright blue light was the last thing it recorded. The rat was satisfied by the kill and then returned his strange weapon to it's place. Vincent was moaning in pain as the rat ran on with him in his arms. "You're gonna' be okay, kid." the rat assured. Vincent winced in pain, "Who...who are you?" he asked. "Call me Kell. I'm gonna' take you some place safe. There's gonna' be more of them later. We gotta' move." he said...

Description: Vincent was enjoying his day, so far. He had his breakfast, went for a walk, and when he returned, he felt so good he decided he wanted to paint something he saw on his walk. He was having such a good time that he was lost in his work. His painting was just about finnished when he noticed that he was missing a color. "Red." he realized. Then he dipped his brush in the red blob and began to stroke it along the canvas. Little did he know that something was watching him from behind. It was watching closly. It was a metal tenticle with a red lense for an eye. It was coming through the hatch that served as the entrance of Vincent's home. Little blinking lights spanned up it's length and it had three claws at it's head. Vincent hadn't suspected that it was there. But if it wasn't for the mirror he used to copy facial expressions, he wouldn't have turned around in time to see the device lunge toward him. It had pinned Vincent to the wall with one of it's claws peircing his shoulder. He screamed in pain as the claw punched through into the wall behind him. The device was going to take him away and he had no way of fending it off. Then a quick clicking noise was heard at the other end of the room. Then another uninvited guest appeared out of no where...

Description: Elem was cold and still, now. Lou was still by his side, crying. She couldn't believe this was all happening. It was already midnight. Time was up. Elem was most likely dead. Lou was left there, alone. Tears were streaming down her face. "Just wait." Were his last words. She let the words play over and over in her mind. They provided some comfort for her as she heard Elem's voice again. But they provided a puzzle, as well. What? Wait for what? She pondered. What did it matter now? It seems that whatever Lou was supposed to wait for, didn't come soon enough. So, she sit, crying. She loved Elem. She wanted him to be with her for the rest of her days. Now, he was gone and not long after she shared her feelings with him. She couldn't bare to keep watching his dead body. She leaned over and licked his nose twice. Cold. It was so. The contagion had taken it's tole. So, she dug up the dirt around him and started to pile it on him. That wasn't going to bury him. She needed something else. So she got up to go get some leaves, possibly. She was walking along slowly, still shaken by Elem's death. Then she felt a hand slide over her shoulder. She turned suddenly, startled. She was even more afraid when she saw Elem standing behind her smiling. "Do not be afraid, Louise. I am alive. I told you to wait. I told you I would be alright. I..." Elem said but he was cut off when Lou hugged him suddenly, "Oh, you scared me! I thought you were gone for good. Don't ever do that to me again! Oh, it's good to have you back." she said excitedly. Elem hugged her back and laughed, "I should have told you that one condition of my becoming a wolf was that my life would have to be in serious trouble. I should have told you that I heal everytime it occures. I'm sorry I did that to you. Put you through all that distress. I'm not sorry I saved Leo's life. I'm glad I'm back with you, Lou. Now, we should get back on the trail. It is morning and there is still much to do." Elem said. Lou laughed and kissed Elem's cheek. "But Elem, it is still dark. Do you really want to go so soon?" she asked. "Well, yes. The journey has just begun." Elem said. Lou nodded, "I guess so...", then she looked down behind Elem, "Uhh...Elem? Your tail is wolfy." she informed. Elem looked and then laughed...

Description: Elem awoke violently caughing and gasping for air. Then he fell back again. Lou was still at his side, crying. "You...should...go, too." Elem struggled to say to Lou. She shook her head quickly, "Elem! Oh, you're awake! I was worried. Please tell me you are alright." she said urgently. Elem was barely hanging on, "I'll be...alright. How long was...I out." he said between breaths. "Nearly all day. It's almost midnight, now. I thought you might have been dead for a while, but I saw you breathing and twitching. Please, let me help you." she pleaded. Elem shook his head, "Wait. Do not...touch me. Just wait. It's...killing me. Just...wait..." Elem trailed off coughing. Lou was looking desperate. She wanted to move Elem. She at least wanted to touch him so she could comfort him. She was deeply disturbed when Elem told her that it was killing him. She didn't want him to die. It was too soon. He still had to find his family. Their journey was just begining and it was about to be cut short. Why did he do that? That was so stupid! Why? Why? Lou thought to herself angrily. "Elem? Don't go. Don't die. You must hold on. You must! Don't leave me! Don't do this! Please, Elem. Please. Don't die! Don't (Sniffle) Don't die! Don't..." she trailed off in a volley of tears. Elem was getting worse. Life was fading from him. His twitching was becoming less frequent and his body more still. His breathing was sounding more like a growl, now. He appeared to be getting larger. His tail changed. His feet were changing, as well. He was growing cold. Very cold...

Description: After a brilliant flash of pink light, Lou and Elem found themselves in a very slowly moving enviroment. The trees and grass appeared motionless. Elem smiled toward Lou and they ran to catch up with their friend. The equivelent of three days went by before they arived to find Leo curled over himself with his nose bleeding. He was with a female mouse who had long brown hair and a fur patern of light brown and white. It was the morning after they had set out from the night before. Lou didn't stop time, she only slowed it down. Lou and Elem rushed to Leo's side. They didn't seem to regard Lou and Elem. "Oh." Lou said and she deactivated the Dragon pearl. Time resumed at it's normal pace and Leo was now rocking himself crying. The mouse next to him was worried. She introduced herself as Jenny. Lou and Elem introduced themselves and then proceeded to Leo's side, "What's wrong?" Elem asked frantically. Leo put a hand up, "Keep back! I am sick. I am infected with something contagious. It will kill you too. Don't touch me. I only have 24 hours to get an antidote." Leo sobbed. Elem examined the mouse carfully then looked over to Lou, "Don't try to stop me." he said quietly. But before Lou could object, Elem grabbed Leo's hand and gave it a tight squeeze. Elem braced himself, for he was taking Leo's illness away from him and kept it to himself to contain it. The blood from Leo's nose receeded back to where it came from and Leo's eyes returned to their natural color. During that time Lou was reaching to Elem to stop him, screaming his name. Elem felt dizzy and hot. He let go of Leo's hand and began to fall back. "Why? Why did you do that, my friend?" Leo asked in astonishment. Elem took a minute to gather himself, "I'll be all right. I had to save you. It would have been too late. I had to..." he trailed off and finally collapsed breathing heavily. Lou rushed to his side, trying to resist the urge to touch him, "Elem! Are you okay? Oh, please tell me you'll be just fine. Please, Elem. Don't do this." She pleaded. The other two mice looked equaly troubled. Jenny especially looked worried. She didn't know the mouse and she felt sorry for him. Lou crouched close to Elem trying to keep from touching him. Her eyes were welling up with tears. "Leo, you have to go. For your own good, go. GO!" she said frantically. With out saying a word, Leo and Jenny left. Lou then returned to Elem's side, "Elem? Elem?" she echoed. "I'm here. I'll be fine. Just don't touch me and you'll be fine, too. I'll...I'll be...right here..." Elem assured and then he blacked out...

Description: Elem and Lou had been traveling well into midnight. They were both going along hastily. Something kept rolling around in Lou's mind. The word SLATE. She had the feeling Elem might know what it meant. So, she told him her experience. How she traveled back in time to investigate. How she was caught by an employee. How she escaped from that house and how she cut her tail. Most specifically, finding her father and her sister there. When she was finnished, Elem said nothing. In fact, he looked nearly angry. "Elem, is there anything you can tell me about this?" she finally interjected. Elem shook his head, "Those humans. Those blasted humans. They think it's their right to experiment on whomever they choose. That they can abduct someone at their choosing and submit them to the most unspeakable tortures." Elem grumbled. Lou was concerned, "What do they do there?" she asked. "All kinds of things. Mostly they make robots and machines. Then they perform genetic experiments on animals. Some are even...cybernetic. I think that's what they call it. They would even test deadly substances on you just to test it's effectiveness and then toss your body in a plastic bin when they have finnished and then get a new one. Others would spend perhaps their entire lives in a glass capsule filled with liquid of some sort and have wires and cords hooked up to them. I would watch as they twitch in their suspended state. Not to mention injections of numerous count. Some possibly helpful, some mutating, and some fatal. I question why you would even want to go there even to investigate and find answers. Pray to God you never have to go there again, especially against your own will." Elem finished. Lou said nothing after that. She was saddened by his description. She still had questions, but she didn't have the heart to continue with them. She didn't think she could hear any more of it. Then Elem looked at the moon. It was getting closer to morning. He was looking desperate, "Louise, I don't think we could get to Leo in time. If only we could speed things up." he fathomed. Then Lou got to thinking, "Maybe we could slow things down..." she suggested. Elem arched an eyebrow her way, "What? How so?" he asked. Then Lou produced the same pinkish orb from her pack and it hovered over her hand, "With this." she said...

Description: Lou had just finnished packing her things in her backpack. Along with twin blades, she concealed four throwing stars. She grabed her Hookstaff and turned toward Elem, "Are you ready for action?!" she said slyly. Elem smiled, "Always." he replied. They then set out from Lou's home when Elem stopped dead in his tracks. He felt a warmth coming from his chest. That could only mean one thing. He pulled out the stone from under his tunic and found it was flashing white light. "Wait!" he called out to Louise. She stopped and came back to his side, "What is it?" she asked. "I think someone is trying to communicate with me. I think a link has been established. I wonder if it's Dora." Elem said hastely. Lou raised an eyebrow at the explanation. "Who is it? Who's there?" Elem said into the stone. A silhowet of a mouse appeared in the hollow of the stone. It was another white mouse like Elem. "Curious." Elem mumbled. The mouse looked distressed, "What is that? I am hearing voices. Is this a NIMH trick? I will not submit!" the young mouse said. "He must not be wearing the stone-" Elem muttered, "Hello? Can you hear me? Wait...I know you. You've communicated with me before. You're name is Leo. I remember. It's me, Elem. Where are you? What's wrong?" Elem asked. "Leo?" Lou muttered. "Elem? You've captured Elem, too? You won't get away with this! I will break out of here, and when I do you'll be sorry!" Leo exclaimed. "No, no. I am Elem. You can't see me but you can hear me, right? The stone you possess must be transmitting to me from your mind. What's the matter? Where are you?" Elem asked frantically. Leo looked confused, "How is that possible?" he asked. "It's complicated. Please, tell me what is wrong." Elem pleaded. "Well, I have been captured by NIMH and the have contained me in a plastic box. My friend is also trapped the same way, only she's in a cardboard box. I can't get out. I can controll magnetic feilds, but I'm afraid I can't afect plastic. I'll have to wait to be put in a cage." Leo explained. Elem shook his head, "That's not true. You can affect Plastic. It's easy. Use the stone. Heat the plastic to a plasma. You'll be free in no time." Elem said. "I can't. I don't have my stone. I am helpless. It's no use." Leo objected. "No, don't give up like that. Call it to you. It can hear your thoughts. It will come. It will. Call to it. You must try." Elem interjected. "I...I can't. It's too far away. It's hopeless." Leo said saddly. Then his image began to fade, "Wait! Wait! Leo!" Elem pleaded. But it was no use, his image had faded to pure white. Lou looked concerned, "Poor Leo. He can't get out." she said somberly. "Yes he can. He will. We're going to help him. I can't stand by and let him suffer." Elem said with a determined look. He walked past Lou, "We have to hurry. It might be days. We have to make it to him before these NIMH people can do anything to him. I must help my friend. This way!" He explained. Lou looked on in wonderment. She wasn't sure how far away NIMH was from there. That wasn't the base of her worries, though. Indeed she was concerned with Elem's family, but she had to agree that they weren't going to abandon Leo. He was her friend too. She didn't like the idea of Leo suffering anymore than Elem. So, they set off at a hurried pace. The sun was begining to set in the horrizon...

It does seem that time has stopped for this moment alone. Perhaps I dream. It is a good dream. But a nightmare I should awake to if it is not true. Yet, it is true. She is here before me.

Description: The night before, Elem didn't sleep. He was too excited about the prospects of Lou joining him on his journey. The night before, they descussed plans and then after a kiss on the cheek, Lou went to bed. The next morning, Elem was called into Lou's room. She was gearing up and she didn't want to forget anything. She had packed her backpack and changed into her outfit. She also bound her hair into a pony-tail to prevent snags. Elem planted himself on the floor and watched as Lou put her bandages on. He sighed and watched her with compleet adoration. She was so beautiful he couldn't look away or even blink for a second. She noticed his gaze and turned slightly to regard him, "You know it's not polite to stare." she said playfuly. Elem maintained his smile, "Oh, I'm not staring." he said. Lou grinned, "So, do you think I have everything I need?" she asked. Elem looked over to her pack, "Well, considering it's mostly cola, I'd say so." he chuckled. She laughed too, "Well, this should be fun. I gather we have lots of ground to cover. You need to help your friend and find your family. It should be fun." Lou said. She then leaned over and picked up her pack and retrieved an item. It was an orb. It was a pink orb that had a slight luminescence to it. Elem examined the item with awe. "This will help us." she said with a grin...

Description: Tzolkin awoke suddenly feeling out of place. He'd been warmer than he'd been before. He also felt surounded by that same warmth. It was soft, and furry. He could also smell a scent. It was that of a rat...a female. He reached up to grab his blanket to pull it over his shoulders, but instead met with another shoulder. Then a hand curled around over his wrist. That wasn't right. This wasn't his bed but he was still in his home. His pillow was also different. In fact it wasn't a pillow at all. It was a muzzle. He finally figured it out, "Oh, no. Not again." he wispered.

Description: After meeting with Lou's parrents, they had dinner. Elem enjoyed the meal immencly. He also enjoyed talking with the various members, but for the majority of the time he stayed silent unless called upon. It was now dark and Elem let himself out the back to the protruding treebranch that served as a padio. It was lit by a nearby lantern that illuminated the branch nicely. Elem sat for a while and gazed at the stars that were just peeking out from the sky. He sighed and smiled. It was a beautiful evening. "No," he thought, "Louise is beautiful." He felt good about her invitation to her home and the meeting with her family. He was reminded of his family. Then his smile faded into that of sadness. A tear welled up in the corner of his eye. He began to curl up and cry. Soon after Lou came out after Elem. She was in her night robe and looking rather beautiful with her long hair draped over her shoulders. She was rather happy. She noticed Elem and sat down beside him. "Well, that was a wonderful evening. I could've sworn that my sisters would eat you whole." she said rather cheerfuly. Then she noted that Elem didn't reply and heard him sniffling. She suddenly became concerned, "Elem? Is there anything wrong?" she asked softly. Elem rubbed his eye, "Louise, I love you tremendously and I would do anything to stay with you. You are very kind and charming. I will always remember the time we spent toghter. I thank you for inviting me to your home and meeting your family. I even thank you for that strange drink. (Sniff!) But...I..." he trailed off. Lou leaned in closer to him and placed her hand on his shoulder, "What is it, Elem?" she asked softly. Elem shook his head slowly, "I have to leave tomorow, Louise. I have to find my family. I wish it didn't have to be this way. I wish you could come with me..." he said somberly but a finger met his lips to silence him. Lou looked him in the eye, "Elem, it is sad you lost your family. You are gracious to suggest I come along. So I shall. I cannot let you leave, we are a team. I am going weather you like it or not." She said with a grin. Elem was surprised, "Whaaaa?"...

Description: "This weapon is for you, Spiro. I think you are ready for a real weapon, now. First things first. I want you to hit that target over there, just like you've been practicing. Remember to conceal your strike and maintain a deceptive stance. Remember, your opponent must not know how you intend to strike. Concealment and approach are most important. Now, Throw!" Just then a mouse in the distance fell from it's run. Oren was satisfied, "Very good." he smiled. Spiro wasted no time slaying his target. Much to his teacher's training, he had thrown the dagger unexpectedly.

Description: Thought this would be cute. A moment in every friend's life: meeting the family. Thought it was logical. Elem told Lou he loved her. She brought him to see her home and have some Pepsi. Thought it would be logical to introduce him to her family, starting with her sisters. Julie and Tina both look unsure of Elem. Hope this is funny. Enjoy.

Description: Dora was now alone in front of her home. Elem was no where to be found. She felt saddened by his dissapearance. She was alone now. She finally proceeded inside her home. It was strange. She had walked all over the interior of her home and knew every inch of it with out any difficulty. Now that she had changed, she was afraid of her surroundings. She felt cold and insecure. She wanted Elem by her side to guide her through this dark and frightning place she called home. She felt like breaking down and crying. But something caught her eye. It was a purple glow coming from under her hunting bags. She remembered that she hid a strange amulet there after supposidly stealing it. She wore it for a while. But after being disturbed by this voice in her head that belonged to it's former owner, she discarded it and hid it where no one would likely find it. She didn't want to be bothered by this 'Robert' again. Now, the stone was glowing from it's hiding place. Curiously, she retrieved the stone and examined it closely. The radient purple light wasn't damaging to her eyes as once before. It was as beautiful as it was the first time she laid eyes upon it. She suddenly heard a voice call her, "Dora?" Oh no, it was that annoying rat again. She should've guessed that Robert would bug her again the second she picked up the stone. But there was something different about the voice calling her. It was younger, softer, and more gentle than Robert's. She almost forgot, "Elem!" she exclaimed excitedly. "Oh, I thought you were gone for good. Where are you?" she called about. "I'm here, I can see you. Can you see me?" came his reply. Dora was looking around confused, "Where are-" she began to say. But then she looked closer at the hemisphere of the stone and saw Elem in the holow of it. It was his face. He looked rather serious, "Dora? Can you see me?" He asked. "Yes! Yes, I can see you. Oh, I missed you! But what are you doing in there? How are you doing this?" she asked excitedly. Elem shook his head, "I'm not in the stone, I'm being projected. We're communicating through them. Mine told me that you had one. I took that as an opportunity to see you again as I continue my travels. I told you I had other things that I had to do. Well, I'm glad to see you once again." Elem said. Dora smiled, "I knew this thing was good for something. This is wonderful. Can I talk to you anytime I want?" she asked. "Well, yes. The many functions of the stone are triggered by emotion. You can probably ask Robert to help you. Even if it's his memory self speaking." Elem responded. Dora was over joyed, "Oh Elem, I'll talk to you often. You can count on that. Oh, this is so wonderful. I should show Balak..." she trailed off, suddenly grave. Elem looked at her quizically, "What's wrong? What's the matter?" he asked. Dora hessitated for a moment. Balak knew nothing of her events. The last thing she told him was that she was going to gather food for them. She was suddenly afraid. Afraid of how Balak would react. Afraid of what he might do. "Balak. He's my mate. He doesn't know what happened to me. He could be home any minute and...and..." She began to waver. "What?" asked Elem frantically. "I don't know what he'll do when he finds me. I don't know if he'll recognise me. I don't even sound the same. Oh Elem, what am I going to do?" She said saddly...

Description: No one. Elem is no one. He has no one. His story starts pretty badly. He was taken from his family, all sixteen of them and taken to a lab. They performed all kinds of experiments on him; most were nothing. Then one experiment involving a wolf DNA extract changed Elem forever. He eventually escaped from the lab, but he never found his family again. His was then a life of torment. Constantly being tormented by creatures of numerous count. It was then that the beast inside would be let loose out of his fear and in other cases, injury. Most particularly, being stabbed with a sharp weapon or object. After such an injury, he would heal up instantly. He would become more wolf like and viscous, as a result. His attackers would be slain and he would be left crying, ashamed of what he was. It was after the escape from NIMH that Elem met a young female rat. Her name was Ryell. She comforted him and gave him company. Because of her nature, she wove a white garb for Elem to wear. She then gave to him an amulet bearing a white stone. A James Bowfield taught him how the stone worked and how to use it. Elem took this knowledge to controll his 'wild side'. James and Ryell where the last figures to know about Elem's problem. So it was that Elem was let loose with a staff that James fashioned for him. He said his good-byes to Ryell and he set off on a journey that would most likely have no end. For he was to spread kindness and Love to those who needed it. There was one other thing he was to find. The wolf stone. Ryell told him that if he could find it, he could possibly be set free from the beast inside. From that day forward, Elem had traveled far and wide, with only a few suplies tucked into his pocket on the back of his cloak, his staff that would be a conduit to channel and form the energies from the stone, and his direction from his dearest friend, Ryell. Alone, with no home. In a world of danger and peril. Elem gains an apreciation for the world around him. For the things in nature. He hopes he can help many and fight none. He has helped many on his way and some have become his friends. Though some would turn away from him once they found out about his wolf. Those friends he was trying to protect, ran from him because they were afraid. Though Elem would win many psyical battles; he would lose emotionally. He has become used to loss. Accepts that he will almost always be alone. Sometimes it was a friend that he would lose. Other times, he would have to leave someone he helped. He would pray often that he would one day find someone and he would never be alone again. He prays that his journey would be compleeted and he could rest. But he continues his journey, singing a song he'd learned from a book. He would sing it in times of loss as he would continue on. Often he would not sleep when it gets dark. Mostly because the sky opens up to reveal the stars. He would count them over and over again until he knew where each one would be. He took great joy at watching the stars. Other times, he would not sleep because of sadness. Such a lonely mouse. He was used to sleeping with a family that would pile on and around him to keep each other warm. Now, it is not so. He weeps when he is reminded of it. Yet, the road goes ever on...

Description: Take heart, my dear. The screams came to an end. Lying in my own essence, I could only breath softly with a cool relief for I was weak and worn. I had been re-born after thinking death was upon me. I was alive. My body healing rapidly and regenerating. I had become a creature of man's own ignorance. Did they hear my screams? But a long winded string of squeeks in their ears! But one named Nicodemus took pity to my suffering. You know of whom I speak, don't you, my dear? Yes, child. The one who has ever shown kindness has extended it to me. If he could he would comfort me, clean me, feed me, and tuck me to sleep. But, for the barier that seperated us...it was not so. Weep for me not. I am the perfect tool which stands before you now. You are but half of what I am. As a gift to you...I shall make you complete, child. This won't hurt...as much as I did.

Description: It wasn't long before I had to endure the most unspeakable tortures. Screaming seemed to be my new tongue, for it was the only thing I could do. I could feel every pull, every tug, every RIP in my fabric! Lengthened were my bones and my muscles to follow. My tears turned from salt to my very own blood. Hair was seeping long out of my scalp. My eyes were burning, my ears were ringing, deaf of my own resonance. My heart was racing and my lungs were being emptied of every breath I could conjure. My chest, my legs, my arms were all giving way to some new design and all I could do is let the fire take me.

Description: In the begining, we were ordinary street rats. Steeling our daily bread. Then we were captured...put in cages, and taken to a place called NIMH. It was there that we were given injections. A simple prick in the stomach and we were put back in our cages. All to satisfy some scientific curiousity. There didn't seem to be anything diferent about us imediatly after. Our world began to change. Tears were shed at this change. New fur was sprouting from otherwise old places. I could see the very white of my beauty being replaced with the dark of man's heart. As cold as the metal of the cage was, I was tingling with the flames of change all over. That tingling soon turned into raging fire!

Description: Indeed, the two of them swam in the water. Elem may have not intended to do so, but Louise convinced him to do so by example. She just seemed to be having fun, so he decided to join in. After all the splashing, diving, and laughing they stopped and started to dry off. In the middle of drying off, Elem noticed Louise sitting nearby drying her fur by rubbing it. He gazed at her for a long while admiring her beauty. He smiled and decided to aproach her. His heart was pumping in his chest wildly. He thought this whole thing could wind up being desasterous. But he pressed ahead with the best of thoughts. His intentions were sincere. He was going to tell her how he felt about her. But when he was just about to sit down beside her, she stood up and turned to face him. They were once again nose to nose. It was there that there eyes met. His double green eyes gazing into her bright blue eyes. He thought he was going to melt. His heart was now beating even more heavily now. The stone on his chest was also pulsating a brilliant display of light in unison with the beating of his heart. He swallowed, "Louise?" he said timidly. Louise raised her eyebrows, "Yes?" she replied. "I...uh...I don't know how to say this. But, well...ever since I gave you that flower and you kissed me, I...was thinking about you that whole week. Now, we're here and we've been on this big adventure. I think back on it all now and I...I..." Elem wavered. "Yes? It's okay, you can tell me." Louise said in the softest, most gentle voice one could only hope to hear in their life time. It seemed to boost Elem's spirit, "I...I'm in Love with you." he said calmly...

Description: Now, Elem and Lou were walking along tired and weary of their trip. They were both moving along slowly. Both of them were covered with slime and muck. Elem couldn't stand it. He needed to get clean. Thinking about all that goo made him want to wash up. "Hey, there's a water hole not to far from here. Would you like to get washed up, because I could really go for a good clean." he said quickly. "Swimming? I love to swim! Let's go!" Lou said excitedly. Elem looked confused, "Uhh...yeah. Swimming. Sure." he said. After a few minutes of walking, they made it to the water hole. Elem set his staff aside and imediatly took his cloak of and soaked it in the cold water. He then hung his cloak on a branch and then waded into the water. It felt good to get in the clean cold water. He began washing his face after washing everything else. Then he looked around to see if he could spot Louise. He didn't see her. He wondered where she went. He saw the small rock ledge protruding out over the water, but he didn't see her. He was about to wash his face with another hand full of water, when he heard the words, "Cannonball!" right behind him. He looked suddenly to see the orange blurr he knew to be Louise jumping off of the rock ledge and about to splash in the water next to him. He then braced for the splash...

Description: After leaving the chamber with the crystals in it, Elem and Lou gathered up their weapons and headed out an exit. Elem had already bound the Wolf stone around Lou's neck in a pendant. They were now moving along through a windy tunnle that was now beginning to stink. They both recoiled as they caught a wiff of the scent. Before them was a network of tunnles filled with spider webs, "Oh, great. Umm...run." Elem said quietly as he grabbed Lous hand and made a mad dash for the exit. They ran throught layer after layer of sticky cob web, that it was begining to slow them down. Elem was now thinking this wasn't such a good idea. But the exit lay just beyond, so they had to press on. Already the webing was splotched on their outfits and making them both very dirty. Then Elem saw the light at the end of the tunnle, "We're almost there." he said while almost dragging Lou behind him. She was making an efort to slash the webs so as to help their progress. But it was no good. When they finally crossed to the outside, she was caught. The web and clung to her and she could barely get out. Elem was tugging as hard as he could to try and free her. Then a horror had passed into his sight. A turantula. It was coming fast and Lou was not yet free with her back to it. Then Elem brought his staff around over her shoulder, "Close your eyes!" he instructed. She did so and then from his staff burst forth a blinding beam of light that just about blew another hole in the rock. Then Lou lurched foward and tumbled over Elem. They both fell down while Elem provided cushioning for Lou's fall. They were nose to nose and breathing heavily, "Well, hello." Said Lou...

Description: After an exausting dance of slashes, swings, and thrusts, the battle was over. Amidst the cavern were the corpses of fifteen scorpians and then two mice proceeding to the next chamber. Inside the next chamber was a room filled with crystals of every sort. There were shards of red, blue and green inside. Both mice were awstruck by the light gleaming off of each shard. Elem waved his hand over a small gem in the wall nearest the door way and shards of crystal jutted up out of the ground and barred the entrance inwhich they had passed. Louise marveled at the action. "We must leave our weapons here." Elem instructed as he leaned his staff against a bare part of the wall. Lou followed and placed her weapon next to his staff careful not to touch any of the surrounding crystals. "Very good. Lord knows how many booby-traps are in this place. The wrong shard could activate something, so be careful. There's only one we're after." he said. Lou nodded in agreement and they proceeded ahead. Then the went around a corner of a cluster of blue shards to their left and there they found a crystal cluster hanging down from the ceiling. In the wall behind it was a star shaped golden fixture with a round indent in it. Elem regarded it and knelt down beside it, motioning for Lou to keel across from him. Then he pulled out an amulet from under his cloak. It was gold and had a white stone in the middle of it. Louise imediatly recognised it, "Hey, I know what that is. It's a stone. I've only seen a blue one, though. What's this one for?" she asked. Elem raised an eyebrow, "For? Umm...for this." he said and planted the stone into the indentation. Then a pair of blue arcs raced up the green cluster of shards and then danced around the end. Then three of the shards at the end parted and slowly dropped a small stone from the middle of their opening. Elem opened his hand palm up and the stone hovered above it, "It doesn't want me. Quick, unravel your bandages." he instructed quickly. As quickly as she could, Lou unraveled her bandages and held out her hands in a bowl shape. "Good. Now, let's see if it will come to you." Elem said. Then he carefuly turned his hand over and the stone slowly fell to hover over Lou's hands...

Description: The next day, they proceeded to the Crystal caverns. They came to the entrance. It was a hole that led into a dark, black, tunnle. The two mice looked at eachother, "Well, here it is." said Elem. "Is dark." Lou stated. Elem smiled and raised his staff. He bumped the end into the ground and the bud at the top opened to let out a bright yellow light. Then he thrust it foward into the entrance and it revealed the walls of the tunnle. "Shall we proceed?" he asked calmly. Lou nodded. After they both took a deep breath they both stepped in. The tunnle seemed to go on for a long way untill it opened up into a cavern with sparkling green spots in the walls. "Wow! It's beautiful." Lou marvled. Elem was just about to join her comment when he noticed a flurry of movement. Dark shadows were aproaching and fast. So he turned his staff end over end and stuck the rod end into the air. A high pitched singing noise and a bright light emited from it and the bud end changed to a blue light. "Be on your guard. Peril surrounds us." Elem said suddenly to Lou. Lou broke her gaze from the ceiling and then focused on the walls around them. She saw the same shadows. They were all around. She then pulled out her hookstaff and twirled it over her head. She then assumed the most common defensive combat stance. Then a stinger plunged down between the two of them and Elem turned around and imediatly severed it from it's tail just as it was retracting. "Scorpions!" he warned. Then he cut a leg from it's place and the limb burned where it was severed. Then Elem's staff grew brighter to reveal about fifteen scorpions closing in around them. The two mice were both ready to strike...
Submitter: DB
Description: After a quick change of clothes, the two set out for the crystal caverns. They talked for a long while and saw a great many things. Every once and a while they would stop to eat and then carry on. Louise told Elem about her adventures and how she aquired the Dragon Pearl. Elem was captured by her description and followed every word. He then shared of his adventures thus far at her request. She nodded and asked a few questions in between his descriptions and some times she laughed. Then night fell and they were descussing where the best place would be to sleep. For the looked around and found open, dry, and empty land all around them. It appeared as though it would rain. Then Elem offered that they sit back to back so they could sleep. Louise thought over the alternatives and then agreed. So, they propped up against eachother's backs and Louise was the first to fall asleep. Elem saw this as an opportunity. So, he made his staff sprout open. From his staff came a yellow light and what apeared to be a feint yellow hemisphere. He then lowered his staff to just above Lou's head and the hemisphere expanded to take in her full figure. Then it rained. Each drop evaporated imediatly as it came in contact with the strange yellow field. The wind blew hard and neither one of the mice could tell. Then hail fell. Elem was satisfied that each stone vaporised as it impacted agains the field. Then he fell asleep...

Description: Elem couldn't believe his eyes. Just a week ago he'd run into this young mousette and he'd presented her with a flower. Now he was watching her perform flawlessly with her weapon. He was lost in her motions, awed by her appearence. In his eyes she was more beautiful than any he had encountered before. He took a deep breath and swallowed hard. Then he made his aproach. Then, in mid twirl, the mouse known as Lou came to a stop just before taking Elem's head off. She noticed him and smiled, "Oh, what fun! Hey, I remember you! You gave me that pink flower! Your name was Elem. It's good to see you again. You've come to visit me, yes? Oh, it's nice to have visitors." she said all at once. Elem was stunned silent. He didn't know what to say at first. But then he remembered what he had come for, "Umm...Louise? It is Louise, isn't it? Well, anyways...umm...I...I need your help." he said carefully. Louise raised an eyebrow, "Oh? What with?" she asked. Elem rubbed the back of his neck, "Well...I need to retrieve a stone. It's called the wolf stone. It's in a dangerous place and I'm gonna' need help getting to it. Please will you go with me?" he asked. Louise hesitated. Then a smile inched across her face, "How far away is it?" she asked...

Description: Rapta knelt down before Elem, "What do you mean? Aren't you going to stay?." she asked. Elem shook his head, "No, I can't. I have more to do. Rapta, I want you to know I wont forget you. Now, there is something I must give you and I need your permission to say your name." he said quietly. Rapta raised an eyebrow, "Elem, you've said my name numerous times." she said. "No, your real name." He said just as quietly. "All right." Rapta said hesitantly. Elem leaned in closer and closed his eyes. He then waved his hand before Rapta's face and said, "Dora." Then the silver coating Rapta's eyes fadded to an emerald green. Her hair changed to brown and grew slightly longer. Her outfit changed as well. A small blue stone studded her cheek where her tears once stained. She gasped at this transformation, "I can see. I can see! Oh, thank you, Elem! I wont ever forget..." she began to say, but he was gone. "Elem? Elem?" Dora asked quietly.

Description: The next day went on with out incident. Elem and Rapta were silent half the time. They did talk once and a while. Finally, Rapta picked up a familliar scent, "My home!" she exclamed excitedly. Elem could see it. It wasn't much, but a hole in the ground. Rapta was happy and for a while so was Elem. Then he was caught with a feeling of dread. This was it. He had to say good bye and he didn't want to leave her. "Rapta, it's time." he said quietly while wiping away a tear. "Thank you, Elem. No body has ever been this nice to me before. I guess I'll have to learn to manage my way around my home like this." she said. Elem shook his head, "I have to say good bye, Rapta." he said sorrofuly...

Description: Rapta awoke suddenly, gasping for air. Her heart was pounding wildly. She sat up and felt around for Elem. "Elem? Elem?" she cried with a frightened voice. Elem rushed to her side, "I'm here Rapta. What's the matter?" He said frantically. She found him and immediatly pulled him into her breast and held him tight. She sobbed out of controll. Elem was destressed at this. Something was different, though. Elem could almost feel her pain and he began to cry with her. She was pleading frantically, "Oh Elem, dont ever leave me. Don't ever leave me. I am not weak." she said through sobs. She was breathing heavily and gasping for air at the same time. She must have been traumetized by her nightmare because she seemed desperate for his touch. "It's okay, Rapta. It's okay. You aren't weak. You aren't. I'm here. You're safe now. It's okay. I wont leave." Elem said in an effort to comfort her. She just cried and rocked back and forth...

Description: Rapta was in such a deep sleep, she felt good. It was like she was on some wonderful drug. It had been a long time since she had felt this sort of comfort and trust. Soon the darkness she saw as her current vission faded to her own figure. She looked younger in her dream. She was happy. Then her father appeared. Jenner did not look happy. He looked furious. In fact he looked accusingly toward Rapta. She was suddenly frightened and wanted to back into a corner. But there was nothing. She felt small and Jenner seemed to grow. "How could you shame my name like this?" he roared. Rapta collapsed onto her knees and began to cry. She was shivering all over, "Father, I-" she started to say. "You are not MY daughter! She would have not let this lower creature live! How could you stoop so low?" he growled. Rapta shook her head, "No." she whispered. "Look at you. Blind as a bat. You let this little mouse get to you. You are weak!" he finnished...

Description: It was now time for the two of them to get some sleep. Rapta couldn't tell it was dark anyway. Elem guided her to a nice spot behind the branch and she lay down. "I'll keep watch. You go on and sleep." Elem said to Rapta. "Why should you keep watch?" she asked in near protest. "I'm the only one who can." Elem replied with a smile. After a short moment, Rapta rolled on her belly and closed her eyes to sleep. Elem came up beside her and pulled her cape over her shoulders. She shifted as he did so then she was asleep. "Dream good dreams, Rapta." said Elem gently. Then he rubbed her back and kissed her on the cheek. Then he sat at her feet and watched the night...

Description: The day was getting late and the sky was almost completely dark. Rapta and Elem had been walking for a good while. He had told her stories and a few jokes in which she only laughed at one. Finally they stopped and sat on another tree branch, “Gotta’ stop.” Elem said quietly. “Where are we now?” Rapta asked gently. Elem shrugged, “Well, so far it’s just a valley ahead. Not much else.” He said. Rapta blinked, “Is it dark yet?” she asked. “Yes. The stars are out tonight. You can see them clearly. Some are blue and some are red.” He said. That brought a slight smile across Rapta’s face. That made Elem smile. Then he started pointing and describing as they sat. He even told stories to accompany his descriptions. Rapta took comfort in his presence. No one had treated her like this in such a long time. She felt peaceful…

Description: After they washed off, Elem helped Rapta back to the bank and began to help her dry off. He gathered his outfit and put it on. Then he gathered Rapta’s outfit and handed it to her while she sat on a fallen tree branch. He sat next to her and watched her try and manage her outfit. She appeared to be struggling with putting it on. She then turned to where she thought Elem was, “Help me put on my clothes. Which one do I have anyways?” she said in frustration. “You have your top. I will indeed help you. Here…” he said as he began to put her top on, “So what is your name, Miss?” he asked as he started to fasten it around her back. "I am called Rapta. Now, will you stop calling me Miss?" she grumbled. "You got it. So, tell me about your self." Elem said. "You don't want to know, kid." she murmered. "Try me." Elem said entheusiastically. "I think you should pass." Rapta said. "No, really. You can tell me. It's okay, I've got plenty of time." Elem assured. "You really want to know?" Rapta asked. "Sure." Elem replied. Rapta shook her head, "All right. Don't say I didn't warn you. First off: My real name was Dora. Don't let me catch you calling me that, Okay?" she said. Elem nodded. "Now let's see if I can remember that far back..." Rapta continued. She talked about all of the horrible things she did, the people she tormented and killed and soon Elem was thinking maybe this wasn't such a good idea...

Description: Elem lead Rapta through the woods for a while. Elem held Rapta’s hand, as they got closer to a body of water. “There. There’s a pond. You can wash up there. I’ll join you…for security purposes.” He said. “I’m not getting in there with you! Besides, why do I need security? I can take care of myself. It’s not like I bathed by myself before.” She said before tripping and falling into the mud. Elem winced and joined her side, “That’s why.” He said as he helped her back up. “All right! Don’t get any funny ideas.” She said as she began to remove her cloak. Soon the both of them were undressed and waded into the water. It wasn't after a while that Elem noticed Rapta's figure. He felt a little bashful and giggled nervously. "What's so funny?" She asked annoyed. "Nothing really. I just think you look quite dashing. You're the largest rat I've seen and I think it's quite becoming." Rapta glared in his general direction, "Flatery wont save you." she said.

Description: Rapta was now exploding with rage, “You fool! You stupid fool! You took my sight! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!” she shouted amidst her crying. Elem backed away, “It’s not my fault. It just reacted. Please let me help you up.” He offered as he began to help her up. Rapta shook off his grasp, “Don’t you touch me! No one…ahh!” she said as she lost her balance and fell down again. Elem rushed to get his staff and then returned to her side. “Please, let me help you. Let me get you to some water so you can wash up? That blood under your eyes will soon harden and that will make it much harder to wash out. Please, let me take you to your home. I will guide you. You can trust me.” Elem said calmly and gently.

Description: Rapta collapsed even further onto her belly. She felt like she couldn’t hold herself up. Her eyes didn’t feel like they were burning. Instead they felt a little itchy. She rubbed her eyes some more and felt that it was safe to open them. So she looked around and was suddenly struck with a heavy fear. “I-I can’t…see.” She said trembling. “I know. I’m sorry. I don’t think I can reverse it.” Came Elem’s voice while he placed his hand on hers. She was enraged by his unwanted touch. She wanted to lash out at him but she couldn’t move her arms. They felt like heavy weights. She was now even more frightened, “What did you do to me? Who are you?” she said through angry sobs. “My name is Elem, please let me help you.” He said sympathetically…
Submitter: DB
Description: She was suddenly cast to the ground shivering. She immediately pressed her hands against her eyes. They felt like they were on fire. “Ahh! My eyes!” she screamed as she continued to collapse. She could feel tears smear against her palms. But they weren’t tears. It was blood. She was indeed crying as her world turned to darkness. Elem came from behind her, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to do that. You scared me. It just reacted. That’s all. It felt like it needed to defend me. I’m sorry, Miss.” He pleaded. He was a frightened, not just because she was about to kill him, but because he knew she was blind…

Description: Rapta leapt from her cover with her dagger drawn and raised over her head. Elem suddenly shifted awake to find this large rat about to plunge a sharp dagger into him. He recoiled and put his hand up in front of her. That was when RaptaÂ’s advance ended. She was suspended in mid leap with an intense tingling surging through out her body. At this she gasped and then screamed in pain. She felt her grip let go of the dagger as it floated away from her hand. Her vision was fading as her body continued to convulse. As a matter of fact her eyes felt like they were burningÂ…
Submitter: DB
Description: Elem was relaxing at the roots of a cedar tree. It was a nice day and a cool breeze was blowing. It was perfect. He had traveled for a week now and needed to rest for a while. He set his staff aside so he could sit back and enjoy the sounds of the wilderness. He was sure he was all alone, but something in the bush nearby was peaking through the leaves. It was a large female rat that went by the name of Rapta. She smiled as she found that her prey was unaware of her presence. She quietly drew her dagger and was about to springÂ…

Description: Somebody out there is probably Woohooing, becuase another Jedi mouse picture has been posted. Well, I said I would do one of Tod. So, I did. Hope you like it, Tod.
Submitter: DB
Description: I wonder if anyone was curious about the meeting between ALIS and Andrew. I figure after Andrew compares fur paterns, he would want to sniff her out a bit. I don't know how exactly this would make ALIS feel, but it certainly is an unprocessed experience for her. But, from what MAL has hinted, she wouldn't know how to handle it. Hope you like this, Marcus. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Ben, who wanted to see Isis a little more often. I hope this is satisfactory. Took quite a while to do this one. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy birthday, Timothy! Well, actually it's his player's brithday, Nathaniel Price. So, Happy Birhtday, Nathan! Hope you like this. Have fun!
Submitter: DB
Description: This is a morphed version of Richelle. This idea came to me after an OOC situation on the MUCK where Matthias changed himself, Rick, and Eugene to females and then Duane morphed them. So, this is what I imagined Richelle would have looked like. This is also a present for LordDirk. Not just to thank him for drawing Isis, but because his work is pretty hard on him and I thought something was in order that might ease the stress. So, I hope you enjoy this, Rick. I have tissues for anyone who's making a mess.
Submitter: DB
Description: Clover snatches Duane from Cordelia for a snugglehug. Hope you like this Claudia. Thank you for the hugs and the art.
Submitter: DB
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Monika Spence. She asked me a long time ago to draw Kelsey as a Fox. But, Duane is also a fox. It seemed that Monika was having some tough times and I wanted to cheer her up and thank her for the picture she did of Isis. So, thank you, Monika and take care. I care about you considerably and you are a great friend to talk to. I hope you like this and that it cheers you up.
Submitter: DB
Description: Finally, I get around to drawing Indriel. Now, I know she's not supposed to be wearing a cap. But, it is a bit of an homage to Mario and I know how much Lou likes Super Mario. :) So, I hope this is satisfactory. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Claudia's probably been waiting for this for a while, now. I said I would and so I did. But, I added a little twist to this Clover's variation. I made her a special breed of Fox. I had a hankering to draw furries again and something with a fluffy tail. So, this is it. Hope you like it, Claudia. Sorry, you had to wait so long. *HUGS*
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy Birthday, Rick! Hope this isn't too late in the day to post, but it's still the first. This picture is both to wish you a happy birthday and to thank you for being a friend and of course doing those pictures. I could probably wager that you'd do the same for me three days from now. Well, enjoy the holiday and have a wonderful time celebrating your birthday. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: More anthros? Okay. Were you expecting this? Hope this isn't going overboard with some folks. However, I've drawn Mrs. Brisby as being alluring before. So, this is just a slight variation of that. For those of you who are wondering (Timothy): No, this isn't the result of the injection given to her by Isis. Well, I hope this is good enough.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is Mistique for...Mistique. She wondered what her character would look like. This is what I think she'd look like. Heh, she kind of left the description out there for all to see. So, when I saw it, I couldn't resist. A little artistic licensing, though. Hope you see this and like it, Mistique.
Submitter: DB
Description: Hopefully, Hunter really is female. In any case, I drew this becuase I was asked by her owner to draw more anthros, only as a rat. Well, I found no better candidate. So, this is Hunter as an anthro rat. Hope it's acceptable. Enjoy. :)
Submitter: DB
Description: Mrs. Brisby as an anthro again. This time I tried out a different pose. I don't know if I got it right. But, that's my best attempt. Hope you all like it.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is the Actual Thorn Valley Viper. This is a fighter being used in a Fan-Fic I am writing. Well, it's actually a short story. Anyways, this is the heat the rats and mice will be packing. More Views coming and the armament listings. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is Vanessa Frey, reborn. This is for LordDirk, both to thank him for his latest picture of Isis and because I've been meaning to draw her for a long while, now. She's just very pretty. I hope you like this, Rick. I did try to fit in a lot of red. I am very pleased with how this image turned out. She was a lot of fun to draw. Admittedly, this is how I wanted to see Vanessa, but I didn't have the guts to ask. So, I hope you all enjoy this.
Submitter: DB
Description: Now, one sleeping rodent is cute. But, what about two? Duane decides to snuggle with Clover while she rests. I've noted before that rodents tend to use eachother as sleeping accessories. Well, here it is again. So, snuggly warm and cutsie. Here you go, Claudie. Something to help you rest easy. Hope you like it. *SNUGGLEHUGS!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This is the Arsenal of The Thorn Valley Viper. Pretty neat, eh? The sheer mimicry of Man's weapons, miniturized to suit the needs of rodents.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Shawntae Howard. He did a request I asked for of Data. So, I thought I'd draw something nice for him. I don't think I got the poses quite right, but I think I did okay. Hope you like it, Shawntae. You're a pretty cool guy.
Submitter: DB
Description: "There's only one, Baby." You can all probably guess who this is supposed to be based off of. Not likely to show up on the muck at all. This is just something I thought would be both interesting and funny. I'm not making fun of Lou's 'Shadow'. But, I did get this idea after I saw Shadow. Not to mention that Indriel is orange like Tails. So, why not? Make a blue mouse. Though, his real name is Nick; his nickname is 'Sonic'. Heehee. And yes, he is abnormally fast. Hope you like this, Lou.
Submitter: DB
Description: Once again, for Monika Spence. Duane and Kelsey as foxes again. Of course, on the MUCK, Duane is a mouse and Kelsey is a rat. Here, they are foxes. So, Duane can comfort her. She's lost a best friend and things are getting worse, apparently. I hope this makes her feel better. She's very nice and I care about her. So, I hope you enjoy this, Monika. Take care.
Submitter: DB
Description: For those of you who wanted to see Kelsey nekid...again. Nah. This is an illistration of something going on on the MUCK. It just started with a little snuggling and then grew out of controll into tickling and such. No! She's not choking Duane. He is trying to stay in her lap, though. But, it might look a little funny, anyways. So, I hope you enjoy this one too, Monika. You're lots of fun. This one's for you. *Snugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: Finally, I draw something! This was inspired by an RP that occured where Duane tells Jenny he thought he saw an Angel after seeing Fiona. NO! Duane is NOT having an affair. He loves and cares for Liz very much and wants to marry her. He certainly knows the bounderies of species. For those of you who pick up mistakes in the structure of the wings: SHADDUP! XD Anyways, I hope you like this Ben. It took a while to think up a nice pose for this exceptionall beauty.
Submitter: DB
Description: The opposition to the Thorn Valley colony. Isis' Shadow rat's fighters. They are just as fast as the Viper, but not as versatile. Their function is to attack in great numbers and dominate. They're not very heavily armed but can provide plenty of trouble for a Viper pilot. Not to mention, they're not very big. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Been a couple days since I've uploaded something. Just been a drag for a while. Anyways, this is Asyra in a semi-elvish setting. Since Claudia loves the Lord Of the Rings, I thought I'd draw Asyra as an Elven wolf holding a glowing orb. I hope you like this, Claudia. Enjoy the 'special' picture. ;)
Submitter: DB
Description: For Shawntae. This is Data plugged in. I have no idea what the interface connection looks like, so I just made a couple of ground wires and some hot whires. However, those wires aren't half as hot as she is. Yes, she is waving. Who's she waving to? Could be Vincent. Who knows? Could be Duane. Actually, I think it is Duane. HAH! Anyways, I hope you like this Shawntae. Sorry it took so long.
Submitter: DB
Description: Does anybody remember the young gal that jumped out of Eugene's cake? This is her, only revised. Her name is Valorie. She's supposed to be a mysterious creature. Sort of semi-morphic. I think it's a bit of a trend that Shawntae started. I think it works out fairly well. Valorie is not a NIMH girl. She is very feral. Well, I hope you all like her. I know she likes someone out there. ;)
Submitter: DB
Description: Slightly over due is my picture of Fiona as a fox. However, the cleverness of Ben gave me the idea to add a couple more tails to her. So, Fiona is a cute kitsune. Thanks for the idea, Ben. I hope you like this.
Submitter: DB
Description: Heeheehee. Duane gets a little carried away when grooming Kelsey. I promissed Monika I'd draw Kelsey as a fox again. It's fun to play with the conversion from Rat to fox when doing these. I hope you like this, Mon. Cute, no?
Submitter: DB
Description: Persephone, sitting back and relaxing. This is for Helios in response to him drawing Isis. I hope I got her right. She is extremely beautiful and I really couldn't resist drawing her. Hope you like it, Helios. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Comfort for Hunter. She was feeling down and I wanted to draw something for her to cheer her up. So, Elem volunteered to comfort her. I do hope you feel better, Hunter. I hope you like this, too. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: Elem makes his way to visit Clover and comfort her. I sincerely hope you feel better, Claudia. Take heart and know that there are more that care about you than those who don't. I hope this cheers you up, Claudia. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: I finally find the time to draw Rapta as a wolf. I've been meaning to draw this for Marcus for a long time, now. Not sure I got the muscle structure or fur pattern accurate, but I tried. I also tried to get Rapta to look as crazy as possible. So, I hope you like this MAL. It's been a while since I've drawn her. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Jedi Hunter.
Submitter: DB
Description: I just had to draw this for Claudia. She seems to be having a really tough time, lately. The picture of Clover with dying wings, just tugged at my heart. I had to draw something for her. I care very much for her. I can't stand seeing her sad. So, here is Clover with new wings. To me, Claudia is an angel. She's just so sweet, caring, generous, and very creative. Her artwork is just astonishing beyond any words. I have come to know her and I consider her a great friend full of heart. So, I hope this cheers you up, Claudia. You're a wonderful woman. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: I promissed I would and I did. Kelsey as a three tail kitsune. Isn't she just cute? Or is she more hot? XD Once again, I was playing with a pose that I don't think I got right. But, that's the beauty of art. You can attempt a pose, get it wrong, and you can make it your own. In any case, I hope you like it, Mon. Enjoy. I challenge you other artists to make a fox out of a NIMH character. You never know how much fun the conversion prosses is, until you try for yourself.
Submitter: DB
Description: Kassy as an Anthro. She's just sooooooooooo sweet and cute. This would be the first I've drawn of her. Sadly, she left the MUCK. I miss her. She was playful and hyper. She was a lot of fun to interact with. It's too bad I never saw her play. Anyways, I thought I'd draw her as a lovely anthro mousette. I hope you see this, Kass. I hope it's acceptable. I hope you like. *Tickles!*
Submitter: DB
Description: For Roxan. I said I'd make one for her and there she is. Roxan may be a villianess, but that doesn't mean she can't be dashing. I've not seen her play in an RP. But, I have interacted with her and she's a lot of fun. Confusing fun. I hope you like this, Roxan. Have fun.
Submitter: DB
Description: My second drawing of Mistiqe. I spelled her name right and I removed the eye mark. I added hair because she was converted into an anthro form. Plus, I was using a very specific icon for her pose. Maybe you can guess what it is. Anyways, I hope you like this, Mistiqe.
Submitter: DB
Description: "My...cupcake..." Happy Birthday Tod! Today's Tod's Birthday. Sorry for the lack of color. This was done quickly. I thought a cake with a buggy in it, with flames coming out of it's tail pipes, would be appropriate. Duane and Vincent brought it to him. So, this makes for a nice birthday pic, right? I didn't forget. Happy Brithday, Tod! Now, blow out the nitro flames.
Submitter: DB
Description: "So, how was your day?" "Oh, you know. Same old, same old..." Windwhisper and Hunter chatting between eachother. I was so eager to draw these two in the same picture. First off, both vixens are very beautiful. So, this is a little tribute to both artists. Wonderful job in creating two lovely characters, ladies. I hope you find this amusing. I also hope I got the coloring right. *Hugs both.*
Submitter: DB
Description: This is Angel from NIMHmuck. I think she is a feral mouse who is likely not very well fed. So, I did my best to make her look skiny and pleading. Almost as if she's pleading to you for food. Anyways, I hope I got her fur right. Chrome blond isn't easy to come by with my range of colors. Angel's a real delight to interact with and I hope she likes this.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Tod. Maybe not exactly what the buggy looks like, but I gave it my best. This could be a mass produced model for the NMC. In any case, it's got a lot of power and it handles pretty well, I guess. It's function is likely Recon and Rescue or Recon and Retrieval. Who could say? It has plenty of potential for recon, however. It can cary weapons and suplies around if it comes to it. There may also be room for a couple of passengers. Anyways, I hope you like it, Tod. It took a while to get done. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: A picture for Hunter to say she's welcome. But, also to thank her for drawing Elem. So, here they are a-sleeping together. Ain't it cute? Now, I know Hunter doesn't have black markings on her shoulders and sides. I was just playing with that a little to see how it looks. I think it looks okay, but what about Hunter? Anyways, thanks for Drawing Elem. I hope you like this.
Submitter: DB
Description: For my good friend, Claudia. She's such a wonderful person and very creative. I want to thank her for all the pictures she's drawn for me, especially the one she did of Isis. *HUGS!!!* Anyways, this is also a chance to draw what I think I'd look like as a rat to match things. His design is sort of inspired by Raziel, but not entirely. I've been wanting to draw Claudia's character for a long time, now. So, I hope you like it, Claudia. Thanks for the privelege of knowing you. *Hugs again*
Submitter: DB
Description: Lou is a tough mouse. So, I decided to draw this for Louise. Now, I know I forgot to leave her twin locks over her eyes white. But, it's a little late to fix it. In any case, Lou is my favorite mousette. I hope she likes this.
Submitter: DB
Description: Something I thought would be nice to draw. Once again, going for flatery. I'm not sure if Persephone could play with the wind, but it's a neat idea. It certainly seems suiting for her. Well, I hope you like this, Helios. It was fun.
Submitter: DB
Description: For PrismWuff. Phae and Serenity from NIMHmuck, then her personal fursona, whom I'm assuming is just called PrismWuff. So, I just called her Prism. I did my best to follow the specs of each character as closely as I could. I hope you like it. Cheers.
Submitter: DB
Description: Yay! More foxes! Based on an OOC RP from NIMHmuck. A nice young vixen named Nella was playing with Tod and nearly squished him. I thought that was cute. So, I thought I'd draw her and Tod. But, I wanted to draw Tod as a fox, too. Well, I hope you like this, Tod.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is what Kelsey looks like in Dreamscape. Well...the outfit is new, actually. She normally wears her regular blue and black. Isn't she just beautiful? Well, I hope you like it, Monika. For those of you interested, check out Dreamscape. Adress is: nimhrift.cjb.net port:8888. See ya' there. ;)
Submitter: DB
Description: A present for Helios. His little carpet shark. His fuzzy Goa'uld. His little FearIt. EEEEK! After going to a pet shop yesterday and noticing how flexible a ferret was, I just had to draw this. This pose may look a little odd, because I've never drawn this kind of an angle or possition. The point is, I wanted to draw something nice for Helios. So, I hope you like this. It was complicated, but still fun.
Submitter: DB
Description: I was bored. Shaddup. Anyways, this is Hunter as a cute widdle vixie! Squeak! Heeheeheeee. Cute attack! You're dreams will forever be invaded by this little dangerously cute vixen. Will you be able to look away? I doubt it! HAHAHAHA! I hope you like this, cute little Blue Hunter. I used the extra black patches again. Hope you don't mind. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Here you go, Jamie. This is in part, also for Eugene/Deavon, since they're into eachother. I toyed around with the fur color a little. I let her arms and legs and tail fade into a darker brown so they would stand out a little more from the rest of the body. I also made her hair a little wavey and have a strand fall over her eye. I hope you like this, Angel. I enjoyed drawing it. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: Liz and Kassy sharing a hug. Hopefully this isn't seen as meddling. Monika and Kassy's player have been friends since early childhood. They've had it rough a couple times. But, those hard times seemed to be short lived as their friendship persevered. Now, I've gotten to know Monika as a friend and I consider Kassy as a friend, too. So, I drew this to illistrate the strong bonds they have together. I hope you both like this. May your friendship live on to the ends of the earth. Enjoy. *Hugs you both.*
Submitter: DB
Description: The first in a serries for Megan Lucas. This is her character, Serena. It's been a while since I've drawn anything for Megan. So, I thought I'd draw a serries of pictures for her. It's hard to try and color Blond as a fur color. So, I blended tan and golden yellow together to try and make the blond color. I hope it turned out all right and that you like it, Megs. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: "Why hello, Racso." Two down, two more to go. This is Cordelia as an anthro. I thought I'd try a radical pose this time. The shading might be off, though. I tried for a different light cast, but I don't think I did it right. Anyways, I hop you like this Megs. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This is number three in the Megan Lucas serries. This is her character Isabella. I tried to draw her cross-leged in this one, but I don't think I got it right. Anyways, I hope you like this, Megs. Ain't she cute?
Submitter: DB
Description: "Am I cute now, Vincent? Maybe you'd like cold steel instead of a shower? >)" Jenevieve. *Sighs* Last one for Megan. This is Jenner's daughter, Jenevieve. She may have been morphed, but that doesn't mean you should approach her. It's like playing with fire. Megan, it's been a pleasure. I hope you like this last one. I did my best to make it suiting for this character. I saved the best for last and I must say, I enjoyed doing this one. Enjoy, Megs. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: Surprise! Daune snuggles with Hunter! I really don't know if Hunter has fluff or not. But, if she did...well...it would be attacked! I don't know how many of these I did, but I can remember Rapta got a couple. Fluff is just so fun to play with. I know Hunter was anthro in that one picture. But, I didn't want to risk turning Duane into a dead mousie by keeping with the theme. I like Hunter's character very much. She's just so cool in every way. I hope this comes off as flattering for you. I'm not making fun of you in any way. I gave it my best to make it snuggalishious! (Is that even a word?) Besides, being snugged by a mouse is all the rage, these days. Hopefully, it's also seen as funny, too. Anyways, I hope you like this, Hunter. *Snugglehugs!* P.S. Hope you write me soon so I can take a request and stuff. :)
Submitter: DB
Description: Kelsey's Fluff attack! Kelsey doesn't really have fluff, but this is something Duane does with her on the MUCK. Yes, she does like it. It's cuddly, cozey, cute. I know her hair is part blue and brown, but I screwed up when filling things in so I made it all blue. Oh well. Hope you like this, Monika. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Fiona's Fluff has just been attacked. Because of Duane, Fiona's outfit is just a little lower than usual and buldged out some. Oh, but isn't she pretty? Well, I couldn't resist, really. Fiona is such a darling and I couldn't leave her out of the fun. Hopefully she's flattered. Hope you like this, Ben. This was defenately fun. ;)
Submitter: DB
Description: Here you go, Mistiqe. I did my best to follow her description. Unfortunately, you didn't provide an eye color. I like adding eye color. It just looks better. So, I gave her light violet eyes. Look closely, because those rings were a little tricky to put in there with any significant detail. The band around her foot was added, I'll admit. Anyways, thank you for the request. I hope you like it, Mistiqe.
Submitter: DB
Description: A request from Hunter. Of course she asked me to draw a fighting pose for Hunter or one like Fiona. I wanted to take it a step further and add two more characters to the mix. Claire and Saphir. They were all beautiful out of the line of foxes I saw. The next time, Hunter will be in a combative stance with her very big blade. ;) I hope you like this, Hunter. It took a little longer than one with single character, but I enjoyed it just as much. Thank you for the request(s). *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Now we've got Kitsune Hunter in a combative stance. Actually, it's not a stance. She's likely about to cut someone's head off. I know she asked for one picture, but I like Hunter so much, I sweetened the deal. So, here she is. Hunter fighting...someone. Hope you like it, Hunter. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: For my dear friend, Monika. She's going to be away for two whole weeks. I'm going to miss her. So, here's Duane giving Liz a good long kiss good-bye. Have fun, Monika. I hope you like this, too. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: For Ben. He asked me a long while ago if I liked Lilith. Said I did and I might draw her. I didn't then, because I didn't know what her fur color was. Then I read that Ben was considering either gray or white or a blend between the two. I figured she would take a little more after her mother and gave her gray hair. Since I'm into white fur, that's what I went with. Of course, I made her eyes violet as Ben mentioned. I hope you approve of this, Ben. Hope I didn't over do the fluff or anything else. I also used a variation on one of Rapta's poses. So, I hope you don't mind that, MAL. I hope you both like. Cheers.
Submitter: DB
Description: A 'thank you' pic for Mikita for drawing Isis all those times. Sorry it took so long. But, it was great that you drew my character so many times. Thanks, Keeter. I hope I got all the details right for these two. She's scritching him on the top of the nose, here. Ain't it cute? Anyways, I hope you like this, Keeter.
Submitter: DB
Description: Vixen requested I draw Mistiqe as the most fierce and alluring rat on this site. Well, I don't know if I did that, but I tried. I also tried my best to arm her to the teeth, yet keep her allure at the same time. I hope I did okay. I hope you like it, Mistiqe. I also hope you like it, Vixen. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Heheh. Vincent's been caught. But it seems Isis doesn't mind so much. This is my conclusion to Marcus' picture of Tzolkin trying on Isis' robes. This is also a 'thank you' pic for Marcus for drawing Isis. Thank you very much for drawing Isis in her fur, MAL. I'd defenately like it if you did more like that. So, I hope you like this. You take care, now. Cheers!

Description: My newest character, Rovan (Roe-vohn). This is what he looks like as a rat, when he is actually a fox. His normal attire is very green and he does have armaments of sorts. His background is not developed, yet. But, I should have something shortly. Anyways, I hope you all like.
Submitter: DB
Description: A request from Mistiqe to have her drawn as a fox. I figured she would like have some decorations on her, so I put those in. Mistiqe is a neat character and I'd like to draw her often. I hope you like this, Mistiqe. It was fun to do.
Submitter: DB
Description: She didn't request it, but I wanted to draw her. So, here is Farran. I hope I got the details right. She interested me with her serries of comments and I felt compelled to draw her. I like foxes, anyways. Please let me know what I'm missing, if anything. Hope you like it, Farran.
Submitter: DB
Description: A little 'thank you' pic for Louise. How's this for a rush? Nick rescues Indriel from something, again. He's supposed to rescue her, not give her a heart attack! This kind of speed is not good for a mouse her age. Anyways, thank you for drawing Nick, Lou. I hope you like this.
Submitter: DB
Description: Thought I'd spoil you all with another picture from NIMH's Stranger. Sarah is being chased by a group of shadow rats in the colony. Whom shall come to her rescue? Timmy?

Description: Don't say it! Yes, Timothy is carrying Jenny out of the colony during the attack. Both of them got a bit of a beating before Justin interviened. You can't see it, but Timothy traded in his beat up blue vest for a nifty Simon outfit. Pretty cool, eh? Save for the gash above his eye, that is. Will Jenny make it? Find out. Next time on MUS!

Description: Happy Birthday, Louise! I know it's not yet you're birthday, but no one's counting for neatness. I know it's not the version of Lou in her picture. She was cute, of course. Anyways, I hope you like this, Lou. And now for a song by Weird Al Yankovic! (Happy Birthday!) (Happy Birthday, to you!) x2 Well it's time to celebrate your birthday. It happens every year. You eat a lot of Brocoli and you drink a lot of beer. You should be good 'n happy that there's something you can eat. A million people everyday are starvin' in the street. Your Daddy's in the gutter with the wretched and the poor. Your Momma's in the kitchen with a can of recycled bore. There's garbage in the water and there's poison in the sky. Well, I guess it won't be long before we're all gonna' die! (Happy Birthday!) (Happy Birthday, to you!)x2 Well, what's the matter little friend. You think this party is the pits? Enjoy it while you can because we'll soon be blown to bits. The monkeys in the Pentigon are gonna' cook our goose. Their finger's on the button, all they need is an excuse. It doesn't take a military genius to see, we'll all be crispy critters after world war three. There's nowhere you can run to. There's no place you can hide, 'cause when they drop the big one, we all get fried! (Come on, boys and girls. Sing along, okay?) (Happy Birthday!) (Happy Birthday, to you!)x2 Well, there's somebody in the alley and he's lookin' for a fight. There's an Arab on the corner buying every thing in sight. There's a mother in the ghetto with another mouth to feed. It seems that every where you look today, there's misery and greed. Of course you know the Earth is going to crash into the sun. But, that's no reason why we couldn't have a little fun. So if you think it's scarey and it's more than you can take, just blow out the candles and have a peice of CAKE!!! (Happy Birthday!) (Happy Birthday, to you!)x4 And a pinch to grow an inch!

Description: For LordDirk. This is Rick's mother, Eloriana. Took long enough, I konw. But, I found a nice pose that would best accent her beauty. I suppose she's all dressed up for a dinner or a party. She would be batting her eye lashes at her loving husband, Vaspian. I hope you like it, Rick.

Description: Mistiqe as a fox. Hope you like it.
Submitter: DB
Description: Just a nice picture of Mistiqe. Hope you like this one, too. Cheers.

Description: Stargate fans, this ship you're likely to recognise. It is my own design of a Goa'uld Death Glider. A one man attack fighter with the standard armament; a pair of staff cannons. This varient is a little faster than the others, but just as effective. I know, it's not really NIMH related. I just wanted to show it to peoples. So, I hope you enjoy. Cheers.
Submitter: DB
Description: Rovan meets Hunter for the first time, while she's grooming. Once again, I tried to depict a vixen in 'The Animals of Farthingwood' style. I hope I did okay. I also hope you like this, Hunter. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: These are Asyra's characters, Pert and Snowtrace. I got the impression from her drawings that Pert was always tormenting Snowtrace. So, I drew Pert pinning Snowy down and playing with his tail. Still practicing 'The Animals of Farthingwood' style. I might be getting better at it. Anyways, I hope you like this, Claudia. I recomend all you viewers go to thalerwald.de to see her work. Same for Hunter's work, too. It's some great stuff. Cheers.
Submitter: DB
Description: Do not let your heart be troubled, Monika. I'm still here. The shoulder to cry on, even if distant. I know you've had it rough and some very nasty things have happened to you. But, don't give up. I'm still here. Know you have my support and comfort. God gave me courage to tell you, you are not alone. Ladies and Gentlemen of the gallery, all of you who are able. Please pray for Monika with me in her time of trial. She is a very dear friend. Please help. Thank you.
Submitter: DB
Description: A little over due, but here's another picture of Kelsey as a kitsune. In't she pwiddy? Sorry I didn't glorify her tails like I did in her first picture, Monika. Still, you got the frontal like you wanted. I made her sitting against a big rock, like it was a couch. Just lounging and relaxing. Played with the perspective a little, it's why her arm is a little weird looking. Hope you like it, Monika. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Also overdue. Roxan also wanted to see her character as a kitsune. So, here she is. I gave her four tails because I was a little tired of doing three. I think she wanted a frontal, too. Oh well. I hope you like it, Roxan. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Anita gets a 'fluff attack' from Duane. For her, it's a dream come true. For Duane, he's now wondering what it is he just volunteered to do. I know Anita is fully dressed, so I gave her a different dress. Hopefully, I got her details right. I thought a 'giddy as a demented schoolgirl' expression would suffice in this situation. Duane did take her by surprise, after all. I hope you like this, Juan. It was fun to do. Anita: "SQUEEEEEEE! Oh, my! A mouse! I can't believe it! He chose me! MEEEE! HEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!" Duane: "Errm..." *Muffled*
Submitter: DB
Description: This marks my one year aniversary on this Gallery. A long time have I come and still much further to go. I thank you all for your support through all these months. These are my main characters, Elem and Duane. One is most like me while the other is who I wish I could be like. One holds a pencil while the other holds a piece of paper. The most magical tools of all. Representing my greatest gift. One that I redistribute among you all. Thank you for enjoying my work. Cheers!
Submitter: DB
Description: Hecate get's her fluff attack from Duane. Though, she doesn't exactly have fluff. She's either shocked or surprised by this encounter. It also appears Duane lost his glasses, somewhere. Oh well, still snuggliscious. Hope you like it, Helios.
Submitter: DB
Description: Poor Mistiqe has been going through some rough times, lately. Though I don't know what she's going through, I still wish to try and cheer her up. I figure a hug would help. If I knew what character liked her, I'd have drawn him holding her. Just as I asked you all to pray for Monika, I now ask you to pray for Mistiqe's player. Cheer up, Mistiqe. I hope you feel better.
Submitter: DB
Description: Is that Lou? If it is, she's not well. She appears to have self inflicted wounds and has a high oppinion of herself. Could this really be Lou? I'm sure Louise knows.
Submitter: DB
Summary: Violet.
Description: Violet from NIMHmuck. She's pretty fun to RP with and has a certain wit about her. She's a shorter mouse than most and can't read very well. But, she's pretty strong. I hope you like this, Vi. Cheers.
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy Birthday, Leo! This picture wouldn't be possible with out Claudia. I had a completely different picture in mind. Then I saw what Asyra drew and it gave me an idea. What's in the big orange box? Guess he finds a lovely Lucy inside. Heehee. Happy Birthday, Leo. I hope you like this one, too.
Submitter: DB
Description: Surprise! Out of the blue, Rovan scoops Hunter up into a passionate kiss. What is her response? Will Rovan survive? Just have to wait and see. I know you had to wait a while for this, Hunter. I hope you like it, though. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: A simple sketch I did during the Brown Family reunion. It took up my whole day. So, no MUCK for me. Anyways, this should compensate for not arriving like I said I was. *Hugs all who missed me!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Clover's not feeling well. She suspects it's the flu. Duane decided to drop in to give her some soup. Well, I hope you feel better, Claudia. I may not have a bowl of soup for you, but I can draw a picture that might provide you some comfort. I hope you like this.
Submitter: DB
Description: Based on a little OOC fun on the MUCK. Violet and Jenny were morphed into Kitsunes. Jenny was a little confused while Violet found herself having fun with her newly discovered tails. Lots of weird things happening on the MUCK. I hope you both like it. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Duane gets to know Darla and in the end, they wind up napping together. She cradles Duane as if he was her own. Ain't it cute? Hope you like it, Liz. *Hugs!* P.S. Don't tell Rune. XD
Submitter: DB
Description: For Elizabeth. I'm drawing a number of her characters like this for her. She had no objections to adding the black 'gloves' and 'socks', so I put them in. This is Darla going nuts...as usual. This is the first one. A number of others to go. I hope you like, Liz. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Number two on the list: Elspeth. I know absolutely nothing about this character, except that it's Liz's character. I took a guess and figured she might be evil. But there's a chance she isn't. Well, I hope you like this one too, Liz. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Why, it's Jenner's sister. Can't you tell? The third in the serries for Elizabeth. This is her character from Namless MUCK, named Ventra. I didn't really come up with a clever pose. No, I cheated and used the pose Liz gave her when she first drew her. Hope you don't mind too much. Well, I hope you like it, Liz. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: A day late, but I got it done. This is for my good and dear friend, Monika. She wasn't feeling well and having a lot of trouble with school. So, I thought I'd draw something for her to help cheer her up. I decided to have Duane and Liz share a nice warm blanket. Get well, Monika. I hope you like this. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Poor Hunter. She's just under a lot of stress in school and her morale is down. So, I thought I'd draw something for her to help make her feel better. Did you know you were supposed to stay awake in class? XD Well, I hope you like this picture, Hunter. Cheer up, okay? *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Nick and Indriel getting aquainted inside Nick's burrow. Nick decides he's gonna' relax and sit back while Indriel goes to get her clothes washed after her crash. Now, Nick is comfortable in his fur but he didn't expect Indy to be so...impressive. You can't help but stare. Honestly. Hope you like this, Lou. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Finally, I get around to drawing this fellow. This is Jacob, a new character on the MUCK. His plan is to start up a flight program for the NMC. So, I drew up a small concept for what a NIMH Mouse Flight Unit emblem would look like. Hopefully, I got his look right. I hope you like it, Jacob. Sorry, it took a couple days.
Submitter: DB
Description: AHHHHHH! CUTE ATTAKC! RUN!!! Can you stop the cuteness? Obviously, this is Tzolkin being cute. Just look at those lil' puppydog eyes. This would defenately be before his new fur pattern. Well, hope you like it, Tzol. Please check with your doctor to see if this image is right for you.
Submitter: DB
Description: I'm miserable. I'm miserable. I'm miserable, it's true. I couldn't say why, but I've just been feeling down lately. I thought I was feeling better earlier, but the feeling keeps coming back like a freight train. It hits me just as hard, too. This sinking feeling in my chest or stomach. I have trouble sleeping. I don't hardly have the desire to draw, like I want to. It's hard to care about some things, even. I even get frustrated for no apparent reason. I want to take it out on something, too. Sure, go ahead. Say I'm playing the 'sympathy card'. Fine. I don't care. Say what you will. I just want to stop feeling terrible. Living in this state isn't helping any. It's mostly cloudy and gloomy. That can't be the sole reason for my misery. Wish I knew what it was. I could fix it if I did. Oh, well. Mostly, I just feel like a big loser. Whatever.
Submitter: DB
Description: Ever get so angry you wanted to destroy something? Well, I felt like that earlier today. I didn't break anything, thankfully. I have more restraint than that. When I cooled off, I decided to draw something that reflected my mood at the time. So, I drew Wolf Elem with a staff weapon. Seemed appropriate. It's a destructive weapon. Why not? I was mad. Go fig.
Submitter: DB
Description: Looks like Vincent needs his heart pills, right about now. This was a picture drawn by impulse. It came as inspiration from Asyra's drawing of Roxanne. So, I figured 'What the heck? It's a nice thing to do. Besides, I haven't drawn this couple yet.' An idea popped into my head that maybe Vincent was playing with Tzol's kits and had to retrieve a ball, only to find a gorgous Roxanne sitting just a few feet away. An' what better expression than the classic Brisby sweet smile? Well, I hope you two like this. Enjoy! For those who may not be able to read the quote very well, it reads: "Thow da baw back, Gwanpa!"
Submitter: DB
Description: This is my version of Ben's 'Double stuffed fluff attack'. However, I had Lust changed to a rat so that she would better 'support' Duane. As for Duane, he's not sure what to do. He's not opposed to being a sandwich, but...these gals are on the contriversial side of things. So, he's wondering how his health will be affected by this encounter. I also want to thank Ben for his picture of Duane getting the squish. I hope you like this one, too. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: I finally got this one done for Angel. This is her kitsune character Mikoto. Now, I know that her description didn't call for red ear tips, but I just had to put them in. Ear tips just look good. Anyways, I hope you like this Angel. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: (Hopefully this doesn't get yanked.) Here's Mikoto again. This time she's nekid. I must admit I had a little bit of a problem doing this picture because of the stripe of red on Mikoto. But, it's a feature that Angel specified. Anyways, this is for Angel because she's just so nice. I hope you like it. It took up a lot of my black pencil. Enjoy. Next: Monika's Kitsune.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Monika Spence. This is her kitsune character who doesn't have a name...as far as I know. So, I just put up the name Monica. Pretty close to Monika's name, so it's not too personalized. I'm not sure I got the eye color right. I think it was blue. I can't remember. Anyways, I hope you like this, Monika. It was fun. *Hugs!* Next: Nella.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is for Tod. His oversized honey, Nella the fox. I thought I'd give Nella six tails for this picture. Just to break away from three, basically. Well, I hope you like this present, Tod. Sorry, I didn't do it earlier. Heh.
Submitter: DB
Description: For Megs. This is Isabella as a kitsune, waving those tails at Justin. This is the last kitsune in the serries, for a while. I'm pretty sure the next one I do will be Angel. But, later. For now, I hope you enjoy this one. I hope you like it, Megs. It was a little tricky thinking up a different pose, this time. *Hugs!* Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Welcome Back, Hunter! Yipee! I hope you had a wonderful trip. I missed you greatly. It took me a while to discover you returned. *Hugs!* I hope you like this picture, Hunter. You deserve every bit of it. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: A scene in NIMH's Stranger. This is what happened when Justin intrusts Simon with giving Timothy new garments. In the following scene, Justin inspects Simon's job with some embarresment. "I thought I said to give him something nice to wear." "I did." "Simon..." *Groaning* So, I hope you like this, Simon. It was pretty fun. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Poor Hunter. She's not feeling well. I suspect she has a cold, but I don't know. I just want her to get better. So, little Duane went over to visit Hunter and keep her company. I hope you like this, Hunter. You get better, now.
Submitter: DB
Description: "I've got something for you..." This is based off of a small little RP I did with Darla. Duane was just cuddling with 'Aunti-Darla' and then pulls out a box of Thorn Valley made suger cookies. He holds the box up and...well...you get the picture. Thanks for the fun, Liz. I hope you like this. *Squeezes!*
Submitter: DB

Submitter: DB
Description: Darius from NIMHmuck. I did my best to follow his description. This, of course is a request from Darius' owner. Thanks, Jake. I hope you like it.
Submitter: DB
Description: Everyone, this is a Fairy mouse. This one is for Louise, the first person I asked. As you can see, a fairy mouse is actually white, but their fur can reflect a certain color. Hope you like it, Louise. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This Fairy mouse is for Tzolkin. I thought blue would be suiting for this one. Hope you like it, Tzol.
Submitter: DB
Description: Another Fairy mouse. This one is for Timothy. For this one I tried a different pose. I'm not sure I got it right, though. Well, hope you like it, Tim.
Submitter: DB
Description: For my good and nutty friend, Violet. This is her fairy mouse holding a drop of water. Hope you like it, Vi. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This Fairy mouse is for Helios. It really doesn't take me long to draw these. There are just a number of distractions I had to get out of the way before I did. Anyways, I hope you like this, Helios.
Submitter: DB
Description: For Dawn, Marcus' girlfriend. This would be Roxanne as a fairy mouse. I hope you both like it.
Submitter: DB
Description: A present for my friend Violet, for Halloween. Violet just gets the biggest kick out of playing pranks on Duane. So, as a Halloween prank, she sneaks into his room while he's sleeping and...RAAARRRR! "My, your neck looks tasty!" Happy Halloween, Violet. Hope you like this. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: A new character on the MUCK. Welcome Amanda! She's Ira and Isabella's sister. Hopefully I got her fur pattern right. I think I got everything else right. Hope you like it, Amanda. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy Halloween, to everyone on NIMHmuck and Thorn Valley. This is Fredrick, a very Tim Burton like character of mine. He welcomes you inside his house, but will you be able to leave? Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Took me a while to realize what just happened. My album just hit 10,000 views! Wow! I never thought it would ever get this far. So, to mark it, I drew James looking cool. Thank you all for viewing my art work. I'm glad you enjoy it. *Hugs everyone!*
Submitter: DB
Description: For Amanda. Been a little while since I put up an anthro. With a characater like Amanda, how could I resist? I was very tempted to make her a fox/kitsune. Well, this is what she would look like with out that beautiful green dress. Hope you like it, Krystina. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This is Amanda's fairy mouse. All nice and green. Ain't she cute? Hope you like it, Krystina. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy Birthday, Monika! I know I'm a day late, but I still wanted to make you a present. Well, I hope this makes up for it. You enjoy being 15, now. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This Fairy Mouse is for Hunter. I really hope you like it, Hunter. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Here's Xavier's fairy mouse. Just sitting back, relaxing and grooming herself. Enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: This 'skating' fairy mouse is for Cedric. Thought it would be cute. Seeing as that it's nearing christmas I thought a fairy mouse skating on unseen ice would be nice. Hope you like it, Cedric.
Submitter: DB
Description: Darius' sister, Daria. This is another character portrate of a NIMHmuck character. I hope I got the details right. Sorry I didn't include her dagger. I forgot the details. Well, I hope you like it, Jake.
Submitter: DB
Description: For Krystina. Amanda getting a fluff attack from Duane, but Duane getting a smoochie on the head. Doesn't it make you feel all warm and cozey on the inside? Anyways, I hope you like it Krystina. *Snugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: For Hunter. She loves her muzzle markings so much, I decided to make her a picture full of muzzle markings. Okay, so it's just two and they're on the faces of Hunter and Rovan. But, it's nice, yes? Well, I hope you like it and go crazy for it, Hunter. XD *Hugs and Snugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Based on an actual RP inspired by a picture I did months ago. As much of a prank/joke as it was intended to be, the results weren't very funny when it happened. Poor Vi. She was left caughing, wheezing, and convulsing. Duane felt horrible about the whole thing and promissed never to pull a prank like that again. Right now, Violet is recovering in the hospital with temporary blindness. It was a very interesing and fun RP. Thank you, Vi! *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Jedi Kieda. She looks fiesty, right? Just something for Kieda since she's been leaving some comments in my album lately. For some reason I feel compelled to call her 'Kitty'. Anyways, I hope you like it, Kieda. *Snugs!* Ouch! My arm!
Submitter: DB
Description: Just a little scene from an RP that was done a while ago where Oren was confronted by Zohar. Here, Oren is showing the wise rat that he has a sleeping mouse in his arms, either to show that it wouldn't be wise to attack or that voices should be kept down. Admitedly, the scene is taken out of context. Oren didn't grin like that and Binabi had her cape on. But, I kept on imagening her with out her outfit on, so I drew her as such. Well, I hope you liket this, Zohar. ;)
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy Birthday, Darla! I know I'm a day early, but I couldn't wait. I had to make this for you now, or never. I thought about putting Duane in there, somewhere. But, where would he go? Anyways, enjoy being sweet sixteen! Happy Birthday, Liz! *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: This is Violet as a rat. The idea was given to me during some OOC silliness at NIMHmuck. So, I thought I'd try it out and I am pleased with the results. Isn't she pretty? Hope you like it, Vi. *Squeezes!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Merry Christmas to Thorn Valley! I know, I haven't uploaded in a while and the picture isn't as grand as last year. I made it more, tender and sweet. Possibly what was going on elsewhere in the mansion. In any case, Merry Christmas!
Submitter: DB
Description: I made this Hedgehog for Monika Spence. She doesn't have a name, yet. I'll let Monika name her. So, I hope you like it, Mon. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: What happens when a fearless scout takes a shower? I mean, actually takes one? You know. Get clean? XD Just a joke I pulled on Xavier one time on the MUCK. Something about him being gray because he's extremely dirty and actually being a white rat. Well, I hope you like it, Xav.
Submitter: DB
Description: A request made by Jacob's player about a month or so ago. This is Kimberly. She's a map maker at the colony and girlfriend of Cedric. I hope I followed the description closely enough. Hope you like it, Jacob.
Submitter: DB
Description: Also a request by Jacob to draw Kimberly in anthro form. I thought I'd use a pose I saw used by a Melissa O'Brien. Well, I hope you like it, Jacob.
Submitter: DB
Description: As requested by Mistiqe. I thought I could have her just looking up at the stars, wondering about things. Possibilities, maybe. Hope you like it, Mistiqe. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Sometime after the attack on Thorn Valley, Mrs. Brisby is looking over a pair of sunglasses for the journey ahead. Now, this is sometime after her augmentation, so her hair is a little longer and she seems to have a make-shift naval left behind from the needle. Well, I hope you all enjoy.
Submitter: DB
Description: Durring the attack on the colony, Jenny is chased and tackled by a shadow rat. She is helpless to fend him off as he chokes the life out of her.
Submitter: DB
Description: Timothy pops through a tunnel in the colony and witneses the horror of Jenny being attacked by a shadow rat. It's that moment of hessitation where Timothy is conflicted with his actions. Should he just save his own hide or help his friend?
Submitter: DB
Description: Thought I'd post this here, too. As you can see, I drew Rovan and Hunter as fennec foxes. I thought this could help to cheer Hunter up and make her day, if possible. *Hugs!* Hope you like it, Hunter.
Submitter: DB
Description: Duane's at it again. He's given a fluff attack to Kimberly! Actually, her player requested this. So, I thought up a good reaction and I thought I'd have Duane be a little more casual about it by waving to her. Hope you like it, Jacob.
Submitter: DB
Description: From an RP on the MUCK. A white mouse named Binabi offers herself to Oren as a prisoner in the hopes that it will set Jacob, Timothy and Fredric free. They had just been in a battle against 24 shadow rats and were restrained. Durring the struggle, Binabi is stabbed in the shoulder. She manages to down the shadow rat at take a bite out of his neck. Out of an act of bravery, Binabi surrendered herself to who she thinks is her master. Oren accepts and agrees to let the others go. Now, the little hair braid was NOT apart of her description. But, I thought it would better imply that she was part of a tribe of sorts like her description says. Hope you like it, Zohar.
Submitter: DB
Description: Binabi in anthro form, this time. I screwed up the pose I was trying to make. Oh well. I suppose this works, too. Maybe I'll get it right, some other time. In the mean time, I hope you enjoy this, Zohar.
Submitter: DB
Description: Here's Daria as Jake requested. I really couldn't think of a good pose, so I thought I'd keep it simple. So, I hope you like it, Jake.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is how Binabi with her cloak on and her hood up. I figured a troubled look on her face would be suiting for this one. She just seems to have so many troubles in her life, from what I can tell. She's not easy to figure out, but I think if the circumstances allowed, she'd be the sweetest thing. I hope you like it again, Zohar.
Submitter: DB
Description: Thought I should post this here, too. This is Hunter and Rovan enjoying a little snooze together. It's a Valentine for my dear Hunter. Isn't it sweet? Hope you like it and Happy Valentine's day!
Submitter: DB
Description: Here's a Valentine for Tzolkin, from his wife, Jessica. I thought the outfit and the pose would be suiting for this occasion. I also thought she should be blowing Tzol a kiss. Well, I hope you like it, Tzol. Happy Valentine's Day!
Submitter: DB
Description: Happy Valentine's Day to Thorn Valley! Last year it was Elem and Lou. This year, it's Duane and Liz. This serves as my valentine to Monika, also. So, happy Valentine's day, Mon! *hugs* Everybody, enjoy.

Description: This is for Celie who asked me to draw her character, Cecelia Angela Fortressa. I hope I followed the description closely enough. Hope you like it.
Submitter: DB
Description: "I'm Naked! Weeeeee!" Tenken's probably been waiting for this picture for forever. Sorry, I took so long. I figured Sarah was a high energy and sort of carefree kind of mousette. So, I made her bare and springing around joyfully. I hope you like it, Ten. :)
Submitter: DB
Description: After a very long time of waiting and hard work, I managed to hit 500 pictures. Whew! That took a long time. I'd like to thank all of you for enjoying my contributions to this gallery and I'd like to thank you for all the comments over the long year.
Submitter: DB
Description: This is a present for Liz. I thought I'd draw Darla flying through the air, holding a glowing thing. I guessed her fur pattern from all the drawings Liz drew of her new Darla. Her most recent sketch was so beautiful, it inspired me to draw this. I thought she would like dragon wings rather than the typical angel wings. Why they're red? I don't know. It just seems like something that would go well with her. So, I hope you like this, Liz. *Hugs!*
Submitter: DB
Description: Surprise! Actually, it looks more like a pull-it surprise. Get it? Today's Tzolkin's birthday. So, everyone give presents. I know he'll enjoy opening his first present. ;) Well, you enjoy your birthday, now. Cheers! *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: I haven't drawn Rapta in a long while. So, why not have her giving Isis a big bone popping hug? I sometimes think Rapta could be a cuddly teddy bear at times. Why not? She can have her moments...giggling like a crazy derainged school-girl. Rapta: We're gonna' be the bestest of friends! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Isis: Eeep! I just thought this would be a nice present for Marcus and a funny one as well. Of course, Isis was meant to be this elegant beauty who has a lot of dignity. I thought it would be unexpected to see her in a situation like this one. Well, hope you like it, MAL. Despite it's 'poor quality', that is.
Submitter: DB
Description: A gift for both Darla and MAL. I remembered that picture MAL drew where Rapta, Darla and Isis were hanging out in the hot springs together. So, I thought that maybe these three hung out like this alot. First, I thought Darla would enjoy a little black and orange lollipop like a little demented schoolgirl. Just look at how hyper she looks. I always thouhgt Darla had her 'kid' moments, anyways. Then I thought Rapta would eventually notice something about Isis and Darla that was different from her. A little kinky, I know. But, you have to admit, there's some humor in this. So, I hope you two like this.

Description: I had this in mind ever since I saw that picture MAL made for his sister. I just figure sisters were put on this earth to make their brothers miserable. So, I drew Vincent's sister stealing and wearing his glasses. XD Poor Vin. He can't even see which way she went. I still think she should be called Mindy. XP Well, I hope you like it. For those who may have trouble reading the captions. Sis: Hey look, everyone! I'm Vincent. I need to wear glasses to be a geek. Vincent: Hey! Give those back. I need those.

Description: To conclude that meeting between ALIS and Andrew. I had Andrew finally go in to try and kiss ALIS, but something about that move didn't compute and something in that head piece of her's sparked. I thought this would be a funny conclusion to all those pictures where ALIS and Andrew appeared to be getting intimate. This certainly throws a wrench into the works. XD Like scratching a record when the music was starting to build up. So, I hope you like it, MAL.

Description: Jedi Keeter. He asked for one, so I made him one. Mikita as a jedi mouse. I decided to have him hurt the black floor, though I think I made the sweep go the wrong way. Oh well. Could have been swinging from left to right and then letting his blade rest back at his left again. Well, I hope you like this, Keeter.

Description: For another artist known as Binny. I thought she would enjoy seeing Chill as a mouse in NIMH style. I thought she could use a stylish cape like Mrs. Brisby has. Though, there is some irony to this picture. Chill is ordinarily a fox and foxes prey on mice. So, it looks like the hunter has become the hunted. XD Lame joke, I know. I couldn't resist. Well, I hope you all enjoy this.
Submitter: DB
Description: I'd already drawn something for Clover, involving coffee. But, I thought once wasn't enough. I had to make her as a mouse and a little more realistic looking one, drinking coffee out of a straw. You really shouldn't let a mouse drink coffee. Not good for them. Ain't she just cute? :) I hope you like it, Claudia. *Hugs*
Submitter: DB
Description: Binabi, again. Looks like she's trying to distract you from something. But, you've gotta' ask, what's the blood on her arm? Could she be hiding something? Who cares. She's cute. :D Well, I hope you like it, Zohar. Oh, start up the cold showers. You know who you are. >)

Summary: Only in dreams.
Description: Only in dreams does Isis kiss Timothy. A little tallent her stone grants her. The ability to enter herself into someone's dream and take a number of forms, although limited. She can alter a dream to an extent but some things in a dream are beyond her controll. Here, she makes herself a mouse in Timothy's dream. She presents herself as a stranger and through a serries of dreams, she gives him a passionate kiss. Now, this doesn't actually happen in NIMH's Stranger, but it is somewhat based off of an RP that took place months ago. Anyways, I hope you like it, Timmy. Let's just hope Jenny doesn't see this. ;)
Submitter: DB
Description: Max from Nabraska, drawn in NIMH style. Not a whole lot is different about this character. His eyes are done with a dark brown instead of black and I left out the whiskers because it didn't look quite right. Points to anyone who can remember what short lived serries this guy comes from. Doesn't count if I've shown you. Anyways, hope you all like. :)

Description: This is a request from Monika. She wanted me to draw Kelsey in a Starfleet uniform, wielding a Bat'leth. I thought it would be cool to give her a more custom made Bat'leth in this case. She also requested that her uniform be torn open to make it look like she'd been struck. So, I hope you like this, Mon. :D *Hugs* Kelsey (C) Monika Spence Star Trek (C) Gene Rodenberry

Description: Just a sketch for now. I'll ink and color it later. As you can see, Tim and Teresa are somewhere in the woods exploring. They both happened upon a strange coroded piece of metal in the ground, rusted and very much dead. Points to the person WHO can tell me what it's from, first. ;) "Ain't it cool, Teresa?" "I don't know, Tim. It's kinda' spooky out here."

Description: This is a present for Marcus, Tzolkin and Simon. I thought it would be nice to look back on the years gone by and see what they were like when they were young. Here we have Vincent being hugged, possibly for the first time by adopted young mice, Tzolkin and his sister, Ayanna. Awwww. Precious memories. Well, I hope you all like it. *Hugs* Vincent (C) MAL Tzolkin (C) Tzolkin Ayanna (C) Simon

Description: Thought it would be nice to draw something for Tod. So, I thought I would draw Tod and Duane in the workshop and Duane going nuts over a concept drawing of a new buggy. Leave it to the younger mice to get over excited about a concept. XP Anyways, I hope you like this Tod. Duane: It could have like, killer suspension, 16 speaker surround sound, 20 cup holders, blue LED displays... Tod: Dude...it's just a drawing. Tod (C) Tod

Description: Who remembers the young traveling white mouse? That's right. This is Elem and he's at the end of his road. There's just no point keeping him around here anymore. He's done. He's had it. You can all completely dismiss all that's been drawn of him in the past. It's finished. No more confusion, no more oddball scenarios or pointless speculative situations. This doesn't mean I'm not going to be using him anymore as a character. This just means he wont be around here anymore. There's just no point. I'm not angry, sad or holding anything against anyone. Just giving one last appearance of this lost white mouse. I know at least one person wont be sorry to see him go. So...say your goodbyes or what have you. Not the end of my art here.

Description: This is Skit the mouse. The second fastest thing alive. This guy and a dozen of other creatures were set free by Sonic in the mystic caves. Afterward, he dedicated his life to running fast. When he was old enough to be on his own, he set out to find and join Sonic's cause. Hopefully it's cute at the speed of sound. XD Skit is my own Sonic based character.

Description: This is Olivia, a character I most recently introduced in my fan-fic. She doesn't mind if you call her Olive for short. So far, not much is known about her except that she seems to be on the good side of things. Most notable about her is her height and longer ears. She can be described as taller than most mice and possibly very patient. So far, she hasn't said a word, but that may change. ;p This is just a reference pic so everyone can get a good idea what her fur pattern is like. Normally, she wears a black overcoat that reaches her haunches, black sunglasses, black hat, and a shirt that's either white or aqua green. Not sure. Anyways, I hope you all like how she looks.
Submitter: DB
Description: Okay, so it isn't NIMH based. Just a little something I did for fun. I call it eye candy. Here we have Sonic enjoying his handy work as Robotnick roasts in a huge off the wall explosion. Except for the ground and background, all the explosive special effects and two characters were sprites made by me. Hope you all enjoy the fireworks. :) Sonic (C) SEGA

Description: Inspired by Tzolkin's walk of faith. I thought it might be cute to have Tzol on the slant of a sunroof window, curiously watching the people below as they eat, trade or just converse in some place. Hope you like it, Tzol. :) Tzolkin (C) Tzolkin

Description: Mwahahahaha! Muwahahahahahaha! Muh-ahhh-hahahaha-HAH! Agh! My head! Too much pressure... Ahem. This is the fine serries of high-tech machines at the disposal of Dr. Ivo Robotnick. He's thought of plenty of clever and creative ways to despose of that blasted blue hedgehog. Oh, he hates that little blue speed freak! Anyway, tell me what you think. Which one's good, which ones are not so good, and which ones could use some more work. These are just the machines involved, not how the scheme of the bosses are supposed to work, so keep that in mind. Enjoy. Sonic the hedgehog (C) SEGA

Description: The armory had many weapons to choose from and many of which looked alike. But for one exception, Timothy Brisby spotted an item on the table top that wasn't like the rest. He stood at his full height to get a better look. What he found he was certain many of the rats had overlooked. It was a smaller sword than all the others Timothy saw in the room. Sheathed in its decorated scabbard, Timothy examined the weapon with consideration. The sword wasn't too heavy and it appeared to be made for the likes of a mouse. Why not? He had seen a couple mice around the colony. He was about to draw it from its sheath when a shadow loomed overhead, "Aren't you a bit young to be using a weapon, Tim?" asked a very amused Justin. Timothy turned to face the taller rodent, smile gone from his face, "Sorry. I was just looking at it." he said apologetically. Justin was about to excuse the young mouse when his eyes lit up at the sight of the sword Timothy had in his paws, "Well, I'll be... I haven't seen that blade in ages." he said. Timothy looked down at the blade for a second and then back up to Justin, "Really? Who does it belong to?" -Timothy finding major anti-SOB stick. Hope you all like it. ;)

Description: Rar! I'll destroy you all! I'm not afraid! You want a piece of me?! I'll give you a piece! Bring it! I'll...bite your kneecaps off!!! My half of a trade with Mikita. He wanted an epic pic of Keeter in a sort of Redwall type theme or something like that. Well, I don't know much about redwall, so I just improvised. I gave Mik a sword that says 'Bringer of Deth' on it and a crossbow strapped to his back. He also has a small cut in his ear from a battle long ago and he has a booboo on his tail. :p So, I hope you like it Keeter. Keeter (C) Mikita

Description: Sometimes dares from younger sisters don't always work out like they think they will. Yes, Duane McBride is at it again. This time was a little different. A rat by the name of Nefrititi was napping out under a tree one day when Duane should happen upon her. He thinks he'll surprise her like he did all the others, but when he crawls up he finds he gets stuck and gets cozy enough to fall asleep himself. When Nef wakes up, she immediately falls in love with the little mouse asleep in her fluff by his cuteness alone. Duane wakes up with a very deep blush and isn't sure if he's in trouble or welcomed. This is for a soon to be newcomer to Thorn Valley. Her name is Cassie and this is her character. This was a request of hers for her birthday. It's on the 10th, I think. So, it's early. Still, I hope you like the job I did on your character, Cass. Hope you all like. Nefrititi (C) Cassie

Description: I had actually been meaning to draw this for quite some time now. It is how I imagine Jonathan met his end. Now, I wont spill exactly how it happened but this is part of the scene I have written down. I can say that Jonathan was on his way home ready to meet his wife when it happened. So that's why he's saying "I'm...sorry...Sarah..." I do apologize about the hastily made background. I usually tend to try and bring the focus on the characters in the foreground rather than the background. I hope this doesn't look too disturbing. By the way, his hand is tucked under his chest. It isn't severed.

Description: After being in contact with MAL most recently, I thought it might be nice to make something for him. So, I figured maybe Vincent could walk in his front door and notice almost his entire house was filled with boxes. What's in all the boxes? Bubble wrap, care of a certain crazy rat. Xp So, I hope you like this one, Vinnie. Vincent: What the hazelnuts am I going to do with 22,037 boxes of bubblewrap?! Vincent (C) Marcus Lindemann

Description: Sorry to all the fans out there who are fond of Justin and Mrs. Brisby being an item. It's really, Rapta and Justin. XD Nah, I'm kidding. Oh, yes. Rapta has captured Justin and now she's giving him a full on kiss to torment him. It has nothing to do with affection. It has everything to do with dominance. >) Oh yes, there is tongue involved. Xp Rest assured, Justin is definately doing all he can to resist. Hope you like it, MAL. Rapta (C) Marcus Lindemann

Description: "Would you like some candy?" ;p This year for halloween, I decided to draw my Isis in a modified PVC catsuit. It is modified so the suit is open a little on the sides and there's an opening in the back to let her tail through. The background is supposed to look like a misty night. This idea was inspired by a friend of mine. So, I hope you all enjoy this...halloween treat. XD (Yay! Thorn Valley's back. :D)

Description: What could be going on, here? If this is Jonathan, why is he strangling this mouse? Who is this mouse? Why is there a green amulet laying on the ground close by the both of them? All to be answered in good time. ;) For now, enjoy and feel free to come up with your own explanations.

Description: Oh, hey. Didn't see you there. W-were you standing there this whole time? Eheh. You'll have to excuse me. My place is a little dusty. As you can see...I don't keep it the cleanest in the world. Okay, so this is a gift for Mitchell Cox. It did start out as a request, but since I took soooooooooooooooooo long getting around to doing his request, I decided to make up for the long wait by making it a present. So, here's his character, Michael. He's supposed to be like Indianna Jones, so you can bet he's the adventurer type. As such, he's run into a girl, run into trouble, and is now tasked with getting out of said trouble with said girl. Unknown girl is frantically shouting, "Hurry, Mikey! The Nazi-Zombie-tribal-aliens are coming closer!" Naturally, he's doing his best to get out of the situation. No doubt he's trying to escape to his ship; The Delorian Falcon. XD Well, I hope you like the gift, Mitchel. Sorry for the long wait. Told you it would be a surprise. :D Michael (C) Mitchell Cox

Description: A follow up to a picture I drew of Timothy finding a sword he'd like to use. Despite Justin's objections, Timothy dons the weapon and decides he wants to show it off to Jenny, Duane and another mouse. Not everybody is impressed, though. Duane is probably thinking, "Dude, you're going to die." Anyway, hope you all like. :)

Description: "Soon, Thorn Valley will tremble to the name of INSANO! Ahhheeheeheeheeeee!" Did he escape from NIMH or does he run the place? You be the judge. Why, it's my own rendition of Dr. Insano as a rat. To the crazy rats out there, he could probably out-crazy you...WITH SCIENCE! >:D Anyway, I hope you all like this. -The original Dr. Insano is property of Noah Antwiler.

Description: "Get your paws off the mouse, bub." At least, you can imagine this little guy saying that to some foe. Introducing Lincoln, a character from NIMH's Stranger. He is a mouse living with the rats, but I wont give away just how he relates to them, however. But, I'm hoping he'll be an interesting character to read about. You may have seen the top of his head in "Sword Get", actually impressed by an armed Timothy. You might be able to guess why, now. You might also notice a little trend with mice who wield swords in my story. Just about all of them carry it on their back, whereas rats carry them on their hip. A mouse doesn't exactly want that thing scraping along the ground while they move, I figure. Anyway, I hope you all like this little guy. :D
