       Re: Wandering the Wilderness
       By: Belle Date: January 21, 2016, 1:38 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Belle looked to her side as Warren came up along.  No rush came,
       however.  The grey lapine was all too interested in them.
       Smile-Frown had questions, and started a conversation.
       "Well then, if we're going to be all friendly-like...."  She
       spoke with a blunt tone, "How's about I get a triple of sweet
       cactus juice, some more fried yucca, and we take this out on the
       front porch?" This would get them outside, in the open, and not
       cornered.
       Eyes slipped back to Miss May, a single, slow nod given.  This
       would give the staff a chance to take cover if things turned
       worse, and at the same time provide a small snack for the trio
       if things remained peaceful.  Belle waved at the two rabbits, an
       invite to follow.  "I know ya'll said yinz are tired," said to
       Smile-Frown, "but come on out for a chit-chat.  I got some
       things to say about myself for you, if you're willing to listen
       while I have a smoke."
       Her eyes then gave glance to Warren.  "Sounds good, right?"  She
       nodded her head enthusiastically with the hope that Warren would
       understand.  Belle made her way to the front porch of the
       tavern, fetched a cigarette from her satchel, gave it a light,
       and took a slow long draw - even if nobody followed. What a
       stressful day.

       The grey hare turned his gaze full time to Warren as he was
       asked to explain himself, conscious of the other rabbit looking
       him over which was making him wary. His tired eyes swung around
       to Belle as she proposed they take the conversation outside
       before he pointed his left hand towards the door, the assortment
       of metal buckles dangling from the end of his sleeve jingling
       softly with his movement. "She's right, let's take this
       conversation outside from prying ears." he stated flatly as he
       followed the monkey to the porch. He settled about a body's
       width and a half from Belle's right, waiting for Warren to join
       before he spoke once more. "I mean exactly what I say. This is
       an opportunity." the rabbit began, the gentle afternoon breeze
       softly slipping through his bangs as he looked out onto the
       landscape, staring out towards the long tail of smoke that
       slowly spread and faded through the sky.
       "I imagine you all are looking for ways to strike back at
       Robotnik, or Eggman as this incarnation seems to favor..." a
       slow snarl momentarily formed on his lips before fading out with
       a short outward breath. "I could offer my hand in helping you on
       one very simple condition." The grey rabbit turned his face to
       the others as his bangs blocked the oncoming light of the
       setting sun, his face blanketed in shadows, all but that single
       pink iris visible as his eye opened up slightly wider, his pupil
       dilating in an almost cat-like manner before his words came out
       clear and steady... "I end the Robotnik legacy once and for
       all." his tone was laced with killer intent, but delivered with
       calm premeditated composure.

       Warren followed behind, leaning against one of the posts as he
       listened to the stranger. He had been cautious at first but
       years of performing had attuned him to pick up on other people's
       'stage faces'. There was genuine hatred behind gray rabbit's
       words towards the tyrant. "Get in line, darling." he flipped his
       bangs, relaxing a bit around the other lapine. "In my line of
       work, I am used to working with other people, but there is
       usually an element of trust involved when executing something of
       this magnitude. Do you follow?" He tilted his head to the side,
       he glanced at Belle, wondering if she would get in on this
       action as well. If not, he'd wish her the best of luck; his
       mission took priority over making new friends.

       Happy with the other two out on the porch, Belle listened in to
       the rabbits.  After a ring of smoke passed from her lips, she
       glanced at them both.
       "I think that you're mistaken, Mr. Grey," directed to
       Smile-Frown.  "What is your name anyway?  Mine's Belle..."  She
       waited for his response, and nodded. "Ah...ha."   She leaned her
       bosom against the banister of the porch and propped her body
       upon elbows.  Another long drag pulled from the cigarette, the
       smoke curled from her nose on exhale.  "Eggman will meet me one
       day, but I am in no rush to go seek out his head.  Iffins yinz
       both want to seek out trouble, I can possibly get you in arm
       reach, but I'm not headed in any particular direction.  I got no
       interest, and have my own goals."  She flicked ash from her
       cigarette.
       Miss May came out with the three glasses of cactus juice, and
       the yucca fries with spicy, creamy dip for them.  Belle paid in
       full, at that time, and nodded the nanny goat on her way with
       thanks.
       "Yinz two help yourself to those yucca fries.  A good snack
       brings folk together,"  With that, she lifted her cup of juice
       and sipped on it.

       The rabbit looked down to his feet, he'd clearly made a
       miscalculation in his offer. He came on too directly, so eager
       to get his revenge and he hadn't so much as uttered his name. He
       crossed his arms carefully over his chest, the soft jingle of
       his buckles sounding off as his arms came to a stop. He leaned
       to his right against the banister of the porch, his left leg
       crossing his right as he bent it at the knee and placed the toe
       of his boot down. "Forgive my haste. I haven't had the chance to
       make a practical comeback since I escaped capture." he replied,
       unfolding his left arm, bent at the elbow with his palm open to
       his current company. "If trust is what I must earn, then I'll
       help you however you allow me, so long as my deal remains." he
       added, lifting his head up as those pink eyes searched the other
       two's faces for responses. His own expression however froze as
       Belle referred to him as "Mr. Grey". His mouth ever so slightly
       agape for a moment before he managed to slowly peel what looked
       almost like horror off of his expression.
       "I don't want to hear that name ever again." he said at almost a
       whisper, "My name is Frown." Was he serious? In any case the
       rabbit carefully took a yucca fry and slid it into his mouth,
       effectively silencing himself while he chewed and waited for the
       replies of the others. He seemed like he was down for talking
       business so long as he had his guns pointed at Eggman, which was
       always a plus.

       Warren watched the other rabbit and his body language. For what
       was probably just humility, Warren took it as the other being
       timid, it was kind of cute. The rabbit shook his head as he
       listened, taking a yucca fry and nibbled on the end. He nodded
       in acceptance to the gray rabbit's chance of earning his trust,
       as the albino one would like to give it. "I'm sure we can work
       something out."
       When the matter of the names came up, he raised an eyebrow at
       the other male's name. 'Frown? What kind of name was that?'
       Warren shrugged and introduced himself. "I am Warren Lapin."
       There had been a slight hesitation as he almost used his real
       name, but he managed to stop himself. "I too, have a bone to
       pick with the doctor... as well as a leather clad boot to shove
       up his a**." He growled the last part under his breath and shook
       his head. "But there are things I need to do before that
       happens, places to go, people to find." He was being vague, and
       with good reason.

       Frown, as he came to be known, struck Belle as the type of young
       man who was in the need of guidance.  She could not say much,
       especially as Frown mentioned being captured.  Stoic nod offered
       up to Frown's request that Mr. Grey not be used again.  No
       guilt, no upset, she simply accepted his request with respect.
       "Escape?  Sugar, do you need some fresh cloth-..."  A pause when
       she remembered how much cash the rabbit has given to Miss May,
       "Rather, why haven't you got yourself some new slacks?"  Shrug
       of her shoulders, and shake of her head, she offered a passive
       dismissal with her hand.  "Sorry I asked, sugar.  You wear what
       you like.  Just pains me that you wear something like that to
       remind you - or is that exactly why?"
       Belle was happy to see the two of them eating, and she took seat
       upon porch swing after proper disposal of her finished
       cigarette.  She blew out one final line of smoke and leaned
       back, arms sprawled over the back of that hanging bench.
       "Iffins you're looking to just be around somebody because yinz
       are lonely, then I've no qualms about it, Frown.  Keep yer
       trouble out of my trouble, and we'll be fine."  A solid laugh
       came from her as Warren mentioned kicking Eggman 'where the sun
       don't shine.'  "You got spunk there, Warren, be careful handling
       it."

       Frown nodded once to Warren, that tired and stone expression had
       returned to his face as he looked out towards the direction of
       the site of the crash that had yet to be explored, it certainly
       had his curiosity, but he had priorities. "Just tell me were to
       point my guns, and I'll show what I've got to offer." he said as
       he tugged one of his pistols free with his right hand, his
       finger slipping into the loop of the trigger guard as he quickly
       and smoothly twirled it in rapid cycles towards himself before
       flinging it off of his finger and thrusting his left hand out to
       catch the weapon, his fingers wrapping around the grip as he
       caught it in perfect time, quickly spinning it away from himself
       now before closing his hand once more and extending his arm
       fully, his finger squeezing the trigger as the gun let out an
       empty but slightly alarming *Clank!* as the slide locked back.
       It hadn't been loaded. Finally he tapped the slide release with
       his thumb as the top half of the weapon locked back into place
       with a shrill metal hiss and a blunt *clunk* before spinning it
       backwards once more, catching it by the barrel and tucking it
       away with its matching partner again, giving the strap on his
       chest that was holding the weapons a quick tug to make sure they
       stayed put, causing his outfit to jingle once more.
       "I'll keep my ties loose, but if you're offering to get me were
       I want, I want in on it. I'm not in any rush, as long as I get
       there." he answered, pausing slightly before adding "You could
       say that I need a constant reminder. Lest some other part of me
       forgets..." Frown's face darkened after saying that. He took
       another fry and started to pass it between his fingers almost
       like a coin as he wrapped up his thoughts "I just need to know
       you both won't vanish before sunrise." he mentioned. He did pay
       for a room after all, and with that said he swung the fry back
       around to his forefinger and thumb before sticking it in his
       mouth.

       Warren took another yucca and tried it with the dip as he
       watched the gun display. It was impressive, though he himself
       didn't use those kinds of weapons, he could appreciate talent.
       He replied. "I'm not leaving this town till I rest for the
       night, but I plan to leave tomorrow morning, as soon as
       possible." He looked towards the direction of the meteor crash
       and then turned to Belle. "Would you like to still check out
       that meteor?"

       What a gun display!  Belle applauded.  "You have skilled hands
       there, Frown.  Glad t'see I'm not the only one quick on the
       draw."  She patted the holsters at the top of her boots with a
       grin.  "You should teach me some of those fancy finger tricks.
       Both of us would benefit in the end."  Belle then gestured to
       her motorcycle.  "I'd need ta hook up a side buggy to that real
       quick, but sure I can find something to make a bucket seat outta
       for the two of yinz - or borrow somebody's old jalopy for a
       quick trip into the desert.  Heck, could hitch a wagon to the
       back of that bike.  Yeah, I'll think I'll do that."  She grinned
       to Warren.  "Still going out."
       Once the group had their fill of food and drink, Belle smiled to
       Frown,  "Naw, not gonna disappear before morning.  Once we get a
       look out there, we'll come right back and get our rest.
       Alrigh'?"
