"Weeell, my human name's Feliciano," Italy said thoughtfully to Axl. "But Italy's my real name. Italy Veneziano actually. Romano is my big brother. He's not here now though. You know, I'm hungry--"
Austria shot him a glare. "However does Germany put up with you, I wonder?" he said. "Do be quiet." After cordially introducing himself to Larissa and Zelos, he crossed his arms and looked around. "This place doesn't seem to provide much cover. I agree; we should find shelter. Perhaps in one of the more defensible-looking buildings..." He frowned. "I wonder if anyone actually lives here, or if all of the people in this town have been transported here against their will, like us."
Hungary shivered. "Austria," she said softly. "I really don't like the look of this, now that I think about it. Who could possibly have kidnapped us? A human couldn't..."
"I think there's a lot here we don't understand," Austria responded, glancing at their companions - Rank, Axl, and Cinnamon with their odd, not-quite-human appearances, and Larissa and Zelos with their startling method of fighting. He took his wife's arm. "We'll work it out once we're someplace safer."

((@pfa: Well, he does kind of flirt with young girls a little. Just not as much, and in a different way. Thanks for telling me, I'll keep that in mind next time. ^^"))
Zelos smiled generously. "Well then, my cute princess, you may have the privilege of calling me just Zelos. Wouldn't want to hurt that pretty little head of yours."
He turned to Austria and nodded respectfully in response to his introduction, wondering what that man's relation to the blond woman was. Speaking of which... "I'm sorry, my cool beauty, but I don't seem to have caught your name."
Turning back to Austria, he said, "The alley I came here from led to a small dirt yard with a tall gate around it. Wouldn't keep out humans, but it should be enough to keep us safe from those dogs."

"I'm sorry, my cool beauty, but I don't seem to have caught your name."
Hungary opened her mouth to answer, but Austria beat her to it. "Oh, yes - may I introduce Hungary, my wife." There was a slight chilliness to his tone, and Hungary smirked. It wasn't as if she couldn't take care of herself, but he handled irritating people so much better than she did. He didn't have her temper, for one thing, and his calm could be even more infuriating to others than her rage.
(Unless it was Prussia, of course. Dear Austria had never quite been able to manage him, and she had always prided herself on being able to do it herself. Good thing he wasn't here - that was one good thing at least.)

Zelos's face went blank for a second, almost completely taken aback. He recovered quickly, straightened his posture again, and elegantly swept his loose strands of hair behind one ear.
"Then, madame, I apologize for my... discourteous behavior toward you. I must say, though," he continued, grinning slightly, "it's such a pity for a pretty thing like you to be tied down."
He turned to face the rest of the group. "Well then, shall we be going?"

((Salah- Eh, you're fine. XDDD I just thought it was kinda amusing was all. *ponders whether she should add ages to her character descriptions, since she's thinking she was a bit vague in that department anyways*))
"Oh, okay," Larissa said in response to Zelos. "Zelos is easier to remember!"
"Well then, shall we be going?"
Rank, though deciding not to comment on anything else Zelos had been saying, nodded in response to this. "That would probably be a good idea, yes."

"Weeell, my human name's Feliciano…"
Wait… Human name? Axl thought. That kid certainly looked human. What did he mean by that?
"The alley I came here from led to a small dirt yard with a tall gate around it. Wouldn't keep out humans, but it should be enough to keep us safe from those dogs."
"I wasn't being chased by dogs; that gate won't be enough. I passed plenty of buildings while I was running, just pick one. I don't remember any 'defensible' ones though, sorry. Besides, that might be an obvious hiding place."
"Well then, shall we be going?"
"Let's!" Without even waiting for the others, Axl started back toward the alley area.

"Okay!" Italy ran forward happily. "Are you human? You sort of look like a human, but sort of not. That's really neat armor! Where did you get it? I don't wear armor much, but my grandpa--"
"Italy," Austria said sharply, following behind with Hungary. "Keep your voice down. Remember that we don't know where we are or who might be listening." Italy fell silent, looking chastened.
((Sorry for the shortness. ^^; ))

(My computer isn't letting me log on for some odd reason, but I think I can still keep posting this way. ^^) <a href="http://s17.photobucket.com/albums/b89/Blehing/Axis%20Powers%20Hetalia/Germany/?action=view¤t=1229304686802.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b89/Blehing/Axis%20Powers%20Hetalia/Germany/1229304686802.jpg" border="0" alt="Germany"></a> Name: Germany or Ludwig From: Axis Powers Hetalia Race: Nation (or, human personification of one) Gender: Male Main weapon: pistol Other weapons, abilities, etc: very military minded Description: tall, blonde, blue eyed, very confident in everything that he does [/spoiler]
******
Ludwig woke up on a hard and bumpy surface. He sat up slowly. Looking around, he noticed that he was in the middle of a cobblestone street of a very quiet town. The buildings around him didn't look like any in Berlin, where he had been with his friend Italy, nor any other place he had been in all his travels. It took him a minute before he had cleared his head long enough to stand up and deside to figure out where he was.
Everywhere he walked, it all seemed deserted. No one was in sight. He did hear some things that sounded like a fight, but whenever he started for the sound, it stopped and the town would fall silent again. He started wandering where everyone was when some kind of dog animal walked out of an alleyway in front of him. Ludwig pulled out his trusty pistol and fired off a shot. The beast looked at the wound, surprised. It bellowed and ran towards the german man.
Ludwig did the only thing he could think of. He fired off a shot, which didn't seem to faze the dog-beast, turned, and ran for his life. He had a lot of stamina and his long legs were quite fast, but the beast seemed to be faster. Ludwig kept running.

(sorry about the shortness and lateness, I've been away)
Jack snorted, still unable to raise his Webley. He shot an annoyed look at Gwen.
"Perhaps you're thinking of a different person...?" Tosh said. Jack looked at her.
"Yeah, that must be it!" exclaimed Gwen. She looked expectantly at the strange metallic woman who was still pointing her weapon at them. The sounds of fighting had faded away and everyone wanted to find out what was going on. Ianto and Owen could hear voices close by and they could also hear something that sounded a little like barking and someone running. It was all very confusing.
They were all thinking the same thing. Where is this place and how did we get here?
"Listen Curly Brace," reasoned Jack, "the Doctor I know is a good man, the Doctor you know is an evil man so they must be different people. We've been pulled here by someone for some reason and I for one want to know what the hell is going on. Can't we just put this aside for now."
"Curly, you don't happen to know where here is do you?" asked Gwen.

Curly frowned. "Fine," she said seriously, lowering her gun. "No, I don't know where we are." She looked behind her slightly, with a bit of a cautious air. "But I hear fighting... We have to help whoever's there."
((Ugh, you think your post was short.... Dx))

"We have to help whoevers there,"
"Thank you," said Gwen who was very relieaved. Jack might be able to recover or return from a bullet wound but the rest of the team were as vulnerable as any other. She knew what it was like to be shot once and didn't fancy coming up against that machine gun.
"Well, Curly, I guess we had better be off," said Tosh, indicating that they should start down one of the streets, if it could be called that.
They left the alleyway and Ianto, who had good ears, listened and pointed to a left turning a little to their right. "That way," he told them.
"So Curly, how did you come to be here?" asked Owen. He was very interested in the strangeness of Curly.

Curly frowned deeply. "I'm not sure. I'd just got thrown in the Labyrinth by Misery, and then suddenly I was here." She curled one hand into a fist. "It must have been more of her work. Where is this, anyway?"
"Oh, look, there they are!" She gestured down an alley, where a small group was moving at a fairly hasty speed. "Let's catch up to them," she suggested, breaking into a slight run to meet the group.

Owen squinted at the group ahead of them. It appeared to consist of an odd assortment of people of vaguely humanoid form but some of them had odd features like Curly Brace.
The Torchwood team followed after Curly and caught up with her as she rounded another corner. Jack's wriststrap began to beep quietly. It had not made any noise since the Doctor had disabled it for the second time and Jack wasn't sure why it's teleport sensor was suddenly working again. He frowned over the puzzle.
"Who is Misery?" asked Tosh, "the name is strange, a bit like you," she chanced a glance at Curly as they fell into step with each other.

"Are you human? You sort of look like a human, but sort of not. That's really neat armor! Where did you get it? I don't wear armor much, but my grandpa--"
Italy was interrupted by his friend… Or at least Axl was pretty sure she was Italy's friend. "She has a point. I'll tell you when we're somewhere less… open."
Cinnamon decided to continue talking, however. "You have armor? I didn't know humans used armor. I guess it makes sense…"
Axl looked at a building, wondering how good of a hiding spot it would be. He decided to open the door and take a look at what was inside. However, the door didn't want to open. He tried putting his weight into it, but the door was stubborn. After a few shoves, he eventually used his dash to get it open. The force disconnected the door from the wall.
"Okay, probably not here."
----------
Meanwhile, in a dark room, a character was brooding. Not much could be seen about him other than his eyes and a round, red, glowing object on his forehead.
"I told you a bunch of dogs would not be enough! They are small, they lack intelligence, and they don't even have something to reduce damage!"
