"Hmm." He looked down in thought, all the details sounded familiar, all of them but the short straight blonde hair. he could ask for more details but that would be weird and they needed to rest for right now, He heard the not right now.
"Right right, you guys must be tired." He muttered, a bit saddened like he wanted to say more. i really hope malachin can last out while they rest..i would go but they wouldn't let me.. he sighed looking down.

Malachi could hear the aliens muttering to each other. Maybe if he stayed still and quiet, they would leave.
He could feel his fingers and toes now, and his neck felt better, but everything else still felt paralyzed. Carefully, slowly, he moved his head up to look just ahead of him. After getting over the initial fuzziness of his vision and the headache’s intense comeback, he could see the girl’s black head of hair poking through the grass, motionless.
Would he be able to call out to her? He couldn’t hear the aliens anymore, but he couldn’t let his guard down. Though it was difficult; all of a sudden his entire body felt like a TV on radio static.
Yeah, it probably only worked for the bullets.

Kali blinked open her eyes, her whole body hurt. She couldn't hear the aliens talking anymore, and tried to move her hand slightly, bitting down on her lip and internally cussing.
She knew she could move her head without pain, she sighed, hoping that the guy had made it over and wasn't dead. She turned look around the area and front of her and just decided to wait before initially just continuing to play dead until the other dude got up and walked over to her. She had burnt out her powers just a tad, so some rest was due.

Alister had been silent, awkwardly fiddling with the handles of Evan’s wheelchair and feeling like an outsider in the conversation. Noel listened as Eli explained the destroyed car (aliens had chased them and almost blew it up, and they had escaped, invisible), seeming to forget about him. Alister sighed, taking a sideways glance at Evan. He still seemed to be thinking about the girl; he didn’t even glance up at the mention of the car getting destroyed.

He was in deep thought looking down, he seemed to be staring at the ground or maybe his feet. He was thinking about the girl he had seen earlier, and the girl that been described. He couldn't place it, all the details matched but the blonde hair. it probably wasn't her, but he had a feeling it was.
what if you took away the blonde hair?
would you bald or would you find another set of hair underneath?
she could have been wearing a wig.

The humans weren’t dead. Pgavk hadn’t expected them to be. They’d learned the hard way that humans were less fragile than they looked.
Their siblings had left them to watch while they went to report to the meeting. Standing near the door, they crouched onto their dinosaur-like legs and looked between the humans on the opposite side of the fence, their eleven eyes narrowing.
Arden 0631… she might as well be left alone. She’d been a useful asset, but her spasms and seizures came at the most inconvenient times. Taranaba 0723, however… once failure, always a failure.
Pgavk cocked their gun, aiming at Taranaba’s neck.
They nearly dropped it when the song came. It sounded human, and yet…
It carried through through the trees, the lilting notes flowing like a river. What did humans call it? A lullaby? It made them scared enough to aim the gun away from Taranaba and into the trees.

(gasp, I wonder whos singing)

Kali finally moved and it didn't cause her pain, she slowly crawls over to malachi and lays a firm hand on him keeping one eye on the alien that's pointing there gun at the forest and one on the door, she shadow travels behind the tree's, then after breathing for a few seconds makes them both invisible. She separates her hand from malachi and leans against the tree, the both of them still invisible.
She takes in some heavy breathing but eventually slows to normal breathing.

(I wanted to keep alternating between the POVs, but dang it Malachi’s is too exciting!)

Chat noir, why must you keep torturing me with your nevertheless useful abilities? Malachi managed to think before blacking out again. The song had been keeping him mostly conscious ever since it reached his ears, but not even it could defend him against this girl’s weird shadow teleportation.
It was five minutes (though it felt like five hours) before he woke up again, his body aching. The singing felt… closer now.
He managed to process that he was in the forest now, with the girl panting beside him. His nerves buzzing, he softly stroked her hand to let her know he was, well, alive.
A pause. A breeze passed, making the trees whisper to each other as the song came closer.
And then a gunshot exploded in the air. The song abruptly stopped, replaced with a low rumble.
In the distance, a face peered through the trees. As it came closer, Malachi could make out the delicate, feminine features; the large, dark eyes, milky skin, small button nose, and the long, silky black hair framing it all.
What nearly made him stop breathing was everything else.
The black hair extended like a mane down the creature’s neck, which lead into the black and white striped fur of a tiger’s body, riddled with scars. Now he could see the glint of metal tubes inserted into the creature’s skull, poking through the dark hair, and connecting to the shoulders.
The creature stopped about ten feet away from them. It’s eyes flicked to the fence and beyond it, at what must be the alien that made the shot. Then it turned to the girl, somehow able to see them, and seeming keen on giving a message that Malachi couldn’t understand.
Safe. Cover your ears.

She watched as the creature noticed her somehow through her ability, how it did that she had no idea and was way to tired to defend them against it. Somehow though, she could tell it wasnt going to hurt them and relaxed
He glanced at it as well seeing the message, hidden in her eyes. That is until she heard the voice inside her headband jumped ten feet.
"My e-ears?… What about him?" She whispered out, pointing at malachi before covering her own ears. Waiting.
