Lions, Tigers, and Bears. Oh my., open

[Anna Renton]

Anna was streched out on her back, stairing at the predawn sky. The zoo was just starting to get ready for opening. Anna had been there all night of course, she hadn't broken in, she'd simply pushed open the frount gate. Doors and Gates where never locked for her, not that she could remember anyway.

A deep purring reached her ears and she reached back to pet the black panther that she was reclined against. It purred again and she snuggled against it. How she'd gotten down into the ten foot hole that was the panther exhibit, not even she could say.

Anna gazed up at the fence where the people would be able to see down into the exhibit and she saw a sercerity gaurd walk by. He didn't see her.

[Faust]

Faust needed to clear his head. The appearance of the strange boy at the junkyard rattled him, as well as meeting the vampire, Hu'ron. He was strange and gave Faust a bad feeling, but nonetheless was not a current threat to him.
Faust sighed and stopped at the panther pit. He had always been fond of big cats, even as a human he could remember this. He leaned against the rail and rested his head on his arms, looking down. He was weary, not being able to rest recently. After a few minutes of staring blankly at the panther, he realized there was a girl down there. He panicked at first, in his head, hundreds of thoughts racing in his head as why there was a girl in a pit. After a few moments of just looking at her, he realized she was not harmed and got the strange feeling that she would not be harmed by the panther.
However, the human side of him told him it was usually frowned upon to be hanging out with animals such as the black panther. He looked around to make sure there was no one in his close vicinity, spotting a security guard a little more than 20 feet away. He called softly down to the girl in the pit.
"Hey, girl," he said. "Are you, um, alright down there?" He looked back to the guard, hoping he wasn't heard.

[Anna Renton]

Anna's quick eye flicked towards the voice and she smiled sweetly up at the white haired man. "I'm just fine, thank you." she called back uo to him, reaching back and scratching the big cats ears. Anna was crazy, a crazy 15 year old girl that could open anything with a lock. "are you alright?" she asked back, her voice soft but bright.

[Faust]

Faust was taken aback, as he watched her pet the panther.
"Um...I'm fine, I'm not really the one in a panther pit right now." he called, glancing at the guard some distance away.
"Don't you want to come out of there? Er, people might start panicking or something, and you don't seem like the person to attract attention to herself," he said uneasily.

[Anna Renton]

She shrugged her slim shoulders. "I don't really care what other people do, and i'm very confortable... but maybe your right..?" she delibrated, truely undsided as to weather or not she want to move. Anna looked back up at the guy, calling, "what do you think?" The gaurd looked up at thesound of the girls voice, it wasn't uncommon to have a few people here in the early morning, the zoo paths were open to runner and jooggers, it was just the attrctions weren't open yet. The man saw fuast and no female, frowning and garud started walking over.






(((OOC: you can take control of the gaurd if you want.)))

[Faust]

(( >.< great. ))

Faust looked up to see the guard walking over and casually stood up so he wasn't leaning against the railing anymore.
"S'someone down der?" the guard said with a heavy Brooklyn accent. Faust grimaced at the accent, he wasn't particularly fond of it.
"Uh, there's no one down there, what are you talking about?" Faust said, turning around to face the guard and block the pit from view.

[Anna Renton]

The big cat streched and yawned, pressing itself against the little girls body for a moment, his whiskers tickeled her ear and as laughed. "Hey, stop it! That tickels."

[Faust]

The guard heard the voice and frowned, continuing to walk over.
"Who wazzat? I hoyd someone," he said.
"What? Oh, that was me," Faust laughed. "That tickles!" he squealed in a high voice, imitating the girl in the pit, and he pointed to the railing behind him. "It was poking my ribs, so..yeah. It tickled."
The guard looked at him dumbfounded for a second, then turned and walked away.
Faust heaved a sigh and turned around to look into the pit. "He didn't see you," Faust told her.
"But you might want to get out of there soon. The guards here aren't so nice and I won't be around all day to cover for you."
