Arden seemed to consider what Denny said, before sighing. "Fine" she told him, toddling towards the back door. Finding it shut, the young homocidal girl growled slightly, placing her knife on the floor and trying to pull open the sliding glass door.
Nikolai walked over to Denny, pausing when he saw his twin attempting to open the door. "What?" he asked, pulling on Denny's shirt and pointing at Arden.
"Listen, Havoc, do you think you can close up for tonight? I have something I need to do" Martel said, glancing from the cigarette loving man, to JD who had paused in pouring drinks in order to flirt with a young hooker. Well, at least he seemed to be holding himself back slightly. He wasn't being as perverted as usual.

Barry looked around curiously. He didn't know exactly why, but he had a feeling that something wasn't right. He was behind some kind of house, though it seemed strangely foreign to him. He could hear cars speeding past somewhere, but at the din they were making he suspected that they were either driving much faster than normal cars, or they were just very old.
He kneeled onto the sparse amount of grass and ripped up a handful along with the dirt covered roots. He sniffed it cautiously, and being a country boy at heart, he easily detected some kind of foreign substance that was slowly poisoning the soil. The dirt in Amestris had never smelt like that, unless they were right in the heart of factory grounds or the like. The pollution was never this severe at home... he thought confused. Wherever he was, it definitely was not Amestris.
He sighed and pushed himself up again, painfully aware of the coarse fur rubbing against his skin and making it itch. He wondered what he should do. He needed some clothes, and probably some food too. After all, it had been at least three years since he last had a bite to eat. He could try asking the inhabitants of this house, and if they asked him about his appearance he would just have to come up with some reason, maybe he could say that he had gotten drunk at a fancy dress party, and then lost his way and half of his costume. He wasn't sure if they would buy it, but it was worth a try.
He cautiously edged to wards the front of the house, and knocked on the door.

Denny looked down at the tug, following the boy's indication. "Here." He picked Nikolai up before walking over to tug the door open, having it half the way when he heard a knock. "Stay in the yard. OUR yard." He told the girl before heading towards the front door. hitching Nikolai up a bit, he pulled open the front door and noticed the attire before the face. "Uh, do I know you?" He squinted slightly, that little voice nagging in the back of his head.
Jean paused mid drag, nodding to Martel before finishing his action. Amidst the blown out smoke, he patted his pockets down with a frown. "You gotta lend me your keys though, I think I left mine either in the car or at home."

((DOES he know Barry? Well, he did meet him in the manga but I can't ever remember him meeting him in the anime )) Barry was surprised that the door was opened so quickly, the house had seemed relatively quiet from the outside. The man in front of him seemed to recognize him, which took him completely by surprise. "Uh-well...I dunno, have we met before? Well, I was wanting to ask-" he paused as he tried to find the words. "...Where I am really. I seem to have gotten lost and I can't remember how." He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly, hitching up in the much too large fur. He must have looked like an idiot.

Nikolai stared at Barry, clinging to Denny in slight fear. He smiled slightly, showing off his sharp, fang-like teeth.
His sister, having seen the newcomer, decided to abandon her mole-killing activity to greet him. Arden toddled over, holding the knife in her hand. She jabbed in towards him in what seemed to be greeting. "Hi".
"Thanks" Martel said, sounding sincerely grateful. Reaching into her pocket, she pulled out a key and threw it to Havoc. "I'll see you later" she told him, before heading out of the nightclub.

Barry grinned nervously at the child. It was slightly unsettling for a youngster like that to have such sharp teeth. Once again he wondered where the heck he was.
As the other child toddled over and jabbed the knife at him, he carefully pushed the tip of the knife down wards, so that it no longer was facing him, and looked quizzically at the guy who was supposedly responsible for them "You the father? Ain't it a little risky to let kids that age play with stuff like that?"

Arden looked at Denny, rolling her green eyes before looking back at Barry. "Not my daddy" she told him, pointing back at the man holding her brother. "Who you?" she demanded, sticking the tip of the knife into his shin. Just the very tip went in, so it probably didn't hurt him much.

"GAAARGH!!" Barry nearly toppled back wards as the child dug her knife into his leg. "Geez-stick that thing somewhere else will ya!" But it was still strangely comforting that it was at least possible for him to feel pain now, unlike before. He couldn't help smiling slightly. What a cute kid. He kneeled down so he was at eye level with the girl and said. "Well, as long as you warn me before you do something like that, I'll tell ya. My names Barry." He held out his hand in a friendly gesture.

Arden stared at Barry's hand, smiling slightly before grabbing one of his fingers. "Poke" she introduced herself, using the nickname her boyfriend had given her.
"Arden" Nikolai corrected for Barry, turning his head to look down at his sister.
The young murder frowned slightly before saying, "Bastard". The sharp-toothed boy responded by simply calling her a bitch.

Barry smiled slightly. "Does your mommy know that you two are using such strong language?"

"Bite me" Arden said, smiling and nodding slightly. Having gotten bored with the man, she walked away, picking up a stuffed monkey as she did. She walked over to a nearby corner where a couple of plastic wooden blocks were set up like a cross, along with some toy nails and hammers. Arden then proceeded to place the monkey in a crufixian position before jabbing the nails into its hands and feet and hammering it to the blocks.

Barry watched curously as the girl proceeded to molest the stuffed animal. "She's quite the kid. So...er, as I was asking, where am I?" He said, turning his attention on the man again.

"Nowhere, Earth" Nikolai answered, nodding slightly in response to Barry's question. If Denny wasn't gonna answer, the sharp-toothed tot may as well.

Earth?! He looked at the kid slightly amused. Well...could be some play-world they have. He turned to the man again.

Denny scratched his chin with his free hand "I used to work for the State." He informed him in a way to explain how he'd seen him before. Wincing slightly as Arden stabbed him, rather glad that Barry hadn't retaliated, he managed a wry smile "Sorry about that, she's hard to control, in fact, trying to control her would probably result in people getting killed." He sent a glance to the girl crucifying her bear.
"But yeah, this is Earth, a different world. To keep things short, people from Aemestris somehow ended up here and sort of ended up inhabiting this house. Worse part is, our old lives are part of some show they watch or read. It's disturbing." He frowned emphasizing his point. "So, you gonna come in?" He stood to the side so the man could enter "I'll see if I can find some clothes for you as well."
Jean caught the keys with a bye to his employer, before pocketing them and turning his eye back to JD, glad to see that he was still acting legally. "Hey, think I can get a cola?" He asked, walking over to the bar.

"Douche" Arden muttered slightly, glancing over at Denny with a frown. Apparently she didn't like people making fun of her murdering.
JD nodded slightly, handing Jean a diet coke. As soon he had done this he turned back to the girl. "So, you doing anything tonight?" he asked the skinny blonde girl who was wearing about three tons of make-up.

Barry stiffened at the mention of the State. Shit. Just my luck to run into the guys that caught me. He wondered frantically if he would be able to somehow knock this guy out, but stopped at the mans next remark. "WHAT?!" He whispered in shock. "You mean-this place here-?" He ran a hand through his hair, staring at the ground. He looked up again and swallowed slightly. "-is not Amestris? Its some other world entirely?" He frowned. "Even if it is, that won't change who I am. I could easily kill you with no trouble at all, and yet you invite me in. How am I to know that this is not somekind of trap? I'm a condemned man, not the type you want to mess with."

Denny curtly ignored the insult from the child, being used to it by now, which was actually a rather sad fact. "Well, put it this way, we have an Alchemist killing Ishballan, a few Homonculi and their evil leader and let's not forget a few chimera." He ticked them off on his fingers "So I doubt it'll be much of a bother if you come in. And if you try to kill someone, well, let's just say it's not a very good idea, what with our resident murderer."He motioned to the little girl.
Jean took the coke and sipped it, frowning slightly at the lack of extra sugar. Still he couldn't complain. It was free after all. He listened with interest as JD pulled out his less-drunken-flirt tactics on a girl that seemed to be able to save the entire mae-up industry on her own.
