Where did the turkey go? (Everyones welcome to join); Or What a young thief does on a Holiday

Micha

Micha hums happily to herself, as she dances lightly in the snow on he way though the city streets. The bright red scarf she wore wrapped around her as she twirls and twists, and contrasts with the dark blue coat she was wearing as well. It was the sort of scene that happened fairly often for the young snow leopard. A concerned citizen would report to the authorities that there was a young girl living out on the streets, The police or some sort of outreach worker would come talk to her. She personally liked the outreach workers better, since the police would handcuff her when she wouldn't go to the shelter, or whatever place they thought was "appropriate" for a girl her age. She didn't stay arrested for long, One of the benefits of being able to turn into light.

But that was for another time. As she slowly made her way to her destination. It was the home she'd shared with her family at one time. There was a white picket fence around the yard, but you could hardly distinguish it from the snow, but the house itself was painted a cheery yellow. She could hear the sounds of a happy family even from the porch, and the girl smiled. Of course this wasn't her family, as her father and mother had been forced to move some time ago. Micha knew this, and still she ended up coming to this cheery little house every holiday. Silently she walked around to the back of the house, and climbed up onto the garbage can to peak into the kitchen window.

Micha couldn't care less about her family most days, but on the holidays it was a different story. So if the young snow leopard couldn't be with her family on Harvest Day, she could at least disrupt the holiday of the people who'd taken over the house where her family should be.

The Young leopard waited until the kitchen was clear of Mothers, Grandmothers, and aunts. Then she almost seemed to melt though the glass as she tumbled though the window into the kitchen. Seeing what she wanted, Micha grabs the apple pie and wraps it in a clean dish towel, before sliding it into her messenger's bag for latter. The turkey was almost as big as Micha herself, and the girl had to wonder what sort of mutant turkey it had been. Just as she finally managed to lift it, the platter and carving knife fell to the floor, creating a large clatter. When the father came into the kitchen to investigate, he was blinded for a second by a flash of light, and when he's vision clears, he can only see half the holiday dinner was gone..

"Good job stealing from a bunch of old folks and some kids." Jasmine commented as Micha appeared in the street carrying part of a turkey dinner with the trimmings. "So hows it hanging little girl? Micha right?"

Micha

Turkey juice drips down an otherwise clean jacket, and Micha was like a deer in headlights. The young snow leopard didn't get caught, it was just one of those things that didn't happen. She vaguely remembered this woman from the farmhouse, and the whole experience had left a sour taste for the snow leopard.

"Fine." Micha says in response, knowing that... Jasmine was it, wouldn't understand why it wasn't right for that particular family to have a satisfying holiday. At least not one from the point of view of Micha. She tore off a leg from the turkey and began to eat it. Glancing at the street signs, she nods and starts to waddle down the street, since the roasted bird was almost as large as the petite snow leopard.

Jasmine

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Jasmine grinned and in a flash of light appeared in front of Micha. "Geez girl you really need to lighten up some. How would you like to come to a really swank dinner party with me and Sabs?" The snow curled around the lizard like a mini-tornado for a split second and made her appear like a snow queen. Jasmine wore a huge over coat, thick pants, snug and electrically warmed trooper hat, not unlike the Russian styled ones with the flaps over the ears, which kept her nice and toasty on wintry days like these.

"Well?" She crossed her arms and tapped her foot impatiently.

Micha

((OOC: Sorry got confused, Thought I needed to be in present tense ))

Micha actually growled at Jasmine when the other woman copied her powers. She was lucky that the young girl was already carrying a humongous ill gotten turkey or she would have been treated to some of the nastier things that Micha was able to do with her light powers.

"Why? Last time I associated with you and yours, my freedom was taken away." She replied crossly, as she recalled the fight with Adam and his mind domination powers. Her personal freedom was very important to Micha, and to have that taken away by any means was almost as bad as being physically violated.

Jasmine

Jasmine smiled coyly; "Cuz maybe we would like to make it up to you with possible friendship? Come on I've seen you around the city off and on for the past couple of months now. I mean sure your getting by but wouldn't it be nice to ...oh I don't know...live somewhere aside from the streets? Besides what could it hurt? Not a single of my friends or our allies will harm you. If they try I'd hurt them right back." She held up her fist in a shaking manner to prove she was serious.

"And we got more food then that turkey according to Kalinda. She's that tall girl you saw Mr. Creepy knock out last time we saw you in the flesh remember her? Tall, white, and strong. To bad you missed the after-party for that whole mess." She smiled again and then crossed her arms and waited Micha's answer.

Micha

Micha continued to walk down the street. Frankly she wasn't interested in what the other woman had to say, After all she was living on the street by choice, since she left her parents to be on her own years before. Finally she just dropped the Turkey into a recycler, and turn to face Jasmine

"Last time, I associated with you people. Control of my own body was taken from me. I was was plagued by weirdos, which included, a skanky skunk that was gibbering in a language i didn't understand. A fashion accident waiting to happen. Coutl, the dragon, and the perverted panda that started it all." The young snow leopard sighed, "And explain how dealing with that is better then just minding my own business on the street?"

"Come with me and find out. I already told you tho, I won't let anyone hurt you, you have that on my honor as a friend to be and since I already made a promise. Besides, if I'm around I got everyone's powers so no one could even hurt you." She winked and began walking to the closest Mag-Lev stop. "If you decide to come....you can come with me now or come later, its the old Apple-Bingo Hall way up north, last stop on Route C. Not hard to find." She just kept walking and hoped Micha would join here.

Being the Willful, and indepedant person that Micha was, She didn't follow Jasmine to the Mag-lev. The public transportation required money, that the girl had precious little of. And she wouldn't be surprised if Jasmine would have been willing to pay for her, but that would have been cooperating.

But now with her dinner in the trash, The snow leopard played around in the freshly fallen snow, as she made her way to the bingo hall on her own, Teleporting when it suited her. Needless to say, she was probably waiting impatiently on the steps when Jasmine arrived there herself.
