I'm Damaged as I'm sure you know (Active / semi-closed?)
Characters: Vincent and Lucrecia, later Loz (and possibly anyone who wants to battle crabs?)
Content: A search for someone turns into a crazy battle with crabs
Location: On Madison Avenue, near the park (if that works)
Time of day: Late Afternoon
Warnings: angst, crab violence
Lucrecia wasn't quite sure how long it had been since she had noticed that Vincent was gone. Moreover, she didn't know how long he actually had been gone and the realization had started to gnaw at her. So, after a while of worrying, she'd finally given up on letting him come back to her and went out into the crab-infested streets to find him herself.
Of course, she hadn't taken into account that the streets really were filled with crabs. She'd made it a good distance, up to Madison Avenue, close to the park, when she'd heard the first skittering sound that raised the hair on the back of her neck. Turning around, she spotted something in the distance, something that nearly made her heart stop.
A crab... two crabs...
Feeling her heart leap into her throat, the scientist started running, looking desperately for any kind of shelter. Of course she wasn't nearly fast enough. Heels didn't make good running shoes. The crabs made it to her in only a few seconds, knocking her over from behind. She landed badly, scraping hands and knees. One of the crabs reared up as she lay there and she became acutely aware of the fact that she wasn't going to live through this if someone didn't find her now.
