(ooc: May 23, same time as Raging Tempest and Blackout. For anyone not in the forest or Amaterasu's castle.)
"THIS AIN'T MA DAY!" Ray yelped. The wind had become noticeably stronger since he had first noticed the storm, and it was proceeding to literally whip him around without a care in the world. Thunder clapped once more as another strong gust caught a hold of Ray and sent him straight toward a wall of the citadel. Ray wished he could stop himself. He seriously wished he could. Things just weren't going well for the poor little firefly. The sheer fact that the rain was coming down as hard as it was didn't make things any better. At last, though, the wind seemed to have lost interest in him as it decided to let him drop to the ground in a rather unceremonious fashion.
Ray didn't bother to try and get up. It was pointless. The wind was only going to pick him up again and he would be forced to endure the whims of the wind all over again. He could only hope that someone else happened to be in the citadel. Someone else who he could ride the storm out with. Someone he could at least get a grip on so that maybe he wouldn't risk being tossed around by the wind. Ray didn't care who it was at this point. He needed someone. Anyone! "Why can't dis storm just end?" he wondered.

Things had taken a turn for the worst for the cocker spaniel. She simply went out to scour the place for any stray dogs in place of Jenna, and before she knew it, a huge storm had come in, with unbelievable winds and rain that felt like hail. The poor little dog was soaked to the bone and in this rain she did not know which way to go to get back to her tower. her pack was waiting for her! What would she do now...? She heard a heavily accented voice cry out through the gale and lady's long ears perked hopefully. "Hello? Hello! Who's there?!" she barked, hoping her voice carried over the storm to the owner of the voice.

A voice... there was someone else there! Ray was definitely grateful for that. He would have hated to be caught out in the storm all on his own. Fortunately his light was still shining, even if it had dimmed just a bit from being tossed around as much as he had. Praying that the wind would leave him alone for the time being, Ray flitted upward again and tried to make out just in what direction the voice had come from. Through the thick rain, Ray thought he could make out the form of a little dog. That was more than comforting to him.
"Over here!" Ray called. He was about to flit toward Lady when, once again, the wind picked up and instead sent him in her direction anyway. Another yelp escaped the tiny firefly and before he knew it he had unintentionally collided with Lady. Well, he had wanted to go in that direction anyway. He just wished he had done it of his own will. "...Ah guess it's right here, now." Ray said sheepishly.

"Oh my! Are you all right, little firefly?" Lady asked Ray, leaning her head down to look him in the eye. "I guess we're both quite lost out here..."

"Other than bein' tossed around by de wind, ah think ah'll manage." Ray replied. Oh, was he ever glad to have someone else with him. Now he wouldn't be at risk of being blown away, and he had company as well. "Sorry 'bout dat, by de way. De wind seems ta think ah'm some kinda plaything." he said. Fortunately for him, the wind seemed to have stopped taunting him for the moment. Now they would just have to endure the heavy rain and the occasional thunder claps.

"Good lord almighty! What a storm!" Another thickaccented voice shouted and it turned out to be silver. Silver too had the pleasure of being trapped outside. It was too far at the castle and the forest was even farther so silver had to run here. Then Silver saw a cocker spaniel and a firefly and feeling friendly despite being wet and quite frankly afraid silver replied "Well hello there. Name's silver who're you lads... er I mean lad and lassie"

"Lady?"
Jenna closed her eyes against the lashing rain as she entered the courtyard. The husky's red fur was windswept and sticking up at numerous odd angles that even the pelting rain was having difficulty flattening, and her sodden bandana hung at an angle around her neck. This storm was even worse that the one she'd been caught in when she'd met the cocker. And speaking of whom...
"Lady!" she called again. When the pack leader hadn't returned soon after the tempest had begun to rage, the larger dog had left the pups back in the tower while she went out alone to see if she could find the cocker. The rain seemingly blowing in her eyes no matter which way she looked only served to make the situation more difficult for Jenna, who had to rely on sound and smell alone to locate her fellow canine.

Blue eyes blinked. It was Jenna. The fur bristled as he hid behind the building he had been rooting through. Jenna. The dog couldn't believe it.
He grinned slickly, growling low enough for no one to hear him but his scent may have given him away as it was windy where he was. He didn't mind.
Tail swishing back and forth he stared at Lady and Jenna and just stared, rain and wind blowing furiously around him.

All of a sudden, Lady's scent was accompanied by another, much more familiar and equally unwelcome. The husky turned her head, squinting through the blinding rain but failing to see any evidence other than what her nose told her.
The rumours had been true - Steele was here. And he couldn't have picked a worse time to make his presence known.
Jenna's eyes narrowed. As much as she despised Steele, now wasn't the time to make a point of locating him. The storm looked like getting worse, and both she and Lady needed to be safely back at the tower before that happened. If the larger husky got caught out on it, so much the better. Futiley shaking excess water out of her red fur, Jenna pressed onwards, trying not to dwell on what Steel's appearance here might mean for her family.
Hearing voices coming from up ahead, Jenna broke into a sprint towards them. Maybe Lady was there... or if not, they might have seen the cocker, at least.

Galen walked through the town, the repeated visions of Juno and his Master Darth Vader flashed through his mind, his head throbbed in pain, he couldn't stand it, he needed some way of blocking Vader from his thoughts. Galen resisted the visions as found a shady spot and sat cross-legged in some grass, the Force flowed through him as he calmed his mind. The pain in his head ceased a little, but still it ached.....

Kari had noticed the bad storm coming, looking around for shelter, the rain drops seemed to pour down on them "We better find shelter soon Gatomon." Kari spoke to her digimon partner
Gatomon nodded her head. "Yeah, nothing worse than wet cat fur" She grumbled

Even through the heavy rain and wind, Ray could hear a few other voices at least somewhere nearby. The most obvious thing he could think of to do was call out. At least, he could hope that they could somehow get together. "Hey! If anybody else can hear me, follow ma voice! Ah think we oughta try an' find some place ta take shelter, or at least stick together!" Ray called out.
