.Lake. Lake's eyes narrowed further, and he made his way nimbly over to the fallen beast. His fingers raked through the fur atop its head, tilting it upward so he could gaze intently into the pair of large blue eyes there.
"I can't help you if you don't tell me what I need to do, kiddo." He shook his head. "You know your name, don't you? Kira. That's a pretty name. You're a pretty girl. But I gotta say, I'm not digging the teeth...neither is my dog buddy. Tell me how you can change mack. What I'm supposed to do. Kira!"

Agro was a statue behind that door, he could hear her in the room and the sounds she was making were concerning. Was it some kind of trick? No the panther didn't seem like the devious kind, just the angry kind. He listened carefully and it sounded like she was having some trouble, genuine too. However she was now, there was a person in there somewhere, so he risked a peek. It looked like she was out for the count, did she smash into the wall and in his panic did he not notice? He slipped out from behind the door and watched her carefully. " Looks like she's outa juice or somethin'." he commented.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓Kira flinched under Lake's touch, startled by it. She flailed a little in confusion, body jolting and tensing up, only to slump back down again as she realized who it was. She stared up at him, looking confused, the blue eyes widening and then darting over his form in alarm. Had she hurt him?! The last several minutes, or however long it'd been, were just a flash of images blurring together, and it was hard to distinguish what had really happened.
She didn't remember the wolf.
She'd been staring up at Lake, her head pounding again, trying to process his words. He kept saying her name... and it sounded strange. He was also calling her pretty... He probably just wanted her human form because it was weird to hit on a panther.
Then the wolf interrupted, and she jolted again, flattening into the wall as it spoke. A large paw clamped over her head, pitifully hiding herself away. Wait a second... it'd spoken. Had it.. spoken to her before?
"...I don't.. know how to change back..." she started nervously, the voice this time sounding shaky and younger than the last. Of course, to Lake it was just an odd mix of whimpers and growls that sounded too small to come from such a large creature. "D-did I hurt anyone..?" ♥ ☓  ♥

It seemed like she was back to normal, sorta. " You sure as hell tried kid." He was still being careful, but he let his guard down a little more. As to why he didn't have it up in the first place, he was going to blame that one whatever he was sure he was drugged with to end up in a place like this. " But no, everyone is looking alright. You didn't get anyone." Change back? Well that confirmed that she wasn't a panther all the time then, which was good news for him. He doubted her animal side would ever be too pleased to see him if it ever came out again.

.Lake. Lake quirked his eyebrows, watching the apparent exchange between wolf and panther - he didn't understand any of it, and was more or less aware of how dangerous his current position was. He supposed squatting in front of a vicious panther with his hand on its head wasn't the best idea in the world,but he had acted more on instinct than anything else - and in his experience, his instincts usually turned out to be right.
"Are...you talking to her?" he asked blankly, looking toward Agro again as the wolf made himself known. "What uh...what did she say?"
Damnit, where did that other kid go...?

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓Kira snorted out a sigh and slumped back down again, laying upon her side with her back against the wall. Part of her didn't want to change back, and she figured that was probably playing a role in why she couldn't. She knew that her clothes were gone, and the wolf sounded distinctly male. Then there was Lake, who had his hand on her head. She was sure she'd never hear the end of the comments that'd result from a shift.
"I, um..." It was strange, being able to talk to someone like this. "I'm sorry... I'm fine now, but I.. can't change back yet."
She left it as that, falling silent and letting a couple seconds tick past before she shifted. Slowly, she began pushing herself back to her feet, or paws rather, swaying a little before steadying herself.
No sooner had she risen, than she'd ducked down again, tensing as her head jerked toward the direction they'd come from.
Becca's head peeked around the corner, spying upon the little group that'd gathered around the fallen panther. She spoke only when she realized she'd been noticed. "Oh... did you tame it or hurt it?" she asked, blinking. She glanced around, hesitating, and then slowly creeped around and started moving toward them to get a better look. "Or both..? Is it a friend too?" ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake. "Hey, stay back there," Lake called, turning and holding his hand up in a stopping motion as he caught sight of Becca peeking at them. "Don't come any closer, kiddo."
He frowned. I didn't hurt her...did I? I didn't even touch her...she'd be a tough one to take down.
"...She's not my friend," he found himself saying, his hand still atop the panther's head. "I just..." He shook his head.
...I don't know.
Is any of this even real? Or...have I finally lost it...?

" Well take your time or something. I have no idea about transforming so I guess just don't pull anything." That would be one hell of an ache. Some 'American Werewolf in London' kinda pain. Something tearing while bones change shape, ugh, he didn't want to think about it. He turned to Lake then sat before speaking. " She says she can't change back right now, but seems like she's back in the mindset of her old self." She sounded a lot younger too, definitely in her teens now. More importantly she wasn't going to tear him a new one. " Which is a relief." he added dryly.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓"She's not?" Becca asked, pausing as she was told to stand still. "It doesn't look dangerous anymore though. You're hand's on it." Maybe he didn't realize? It looked somewhat friendly to her though. She glanced between the trio, and then decided to ignore the warning and start moving toward them as if he hadn't spoken. "I'm not gonna miss out on all the fun just 'cause you wanna keep it for yourself."
Kira glanced up, staring from Becca and back to Lake again. So while she'd been lost, he'd picked up another girl? Apparently they weren't friends either... Then why hadn't he just left instead of keep following after her? He must've known it was dangerous so what had his reason been?
She nudged her head away from his touch, glancing grumpily off to the side for a moment. She didn't understand him, and she refused to change back as long as he was around. Yet, in this state, she almost felt even more reluctant to be alone than before. He had played a large part in bringing her back, and if she encountered a threat and lost herself again, if she remained alone she was afraid she'd never get herself back.
Her ears drooped, tail slumping a little behind her as she glanced toward the wolf again, looking apologetic. She didn't know who he was, but.. at least she had some means of communication. ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake. "Wha? She's got a hot chick brain again?" Lake looked from the wolf down to the panther, withdrawing his hand slightly as she turned her head away. "Heh heh. Good to know." He looked up at Becca, lopsided grin back in place. "She's a girl too," he explained. "I mean, she was. Then she got all pissed off." He quirked an eyebrow and looked down at Kira again. "So she tried to eat me, and then ran off." He shook his head. "Remind me not to take a nap around you again, huh? Or piss you off..." He touched the clawmarks in his shoulders - they were hardly noticeable, with his chest still searing agonizingly beneath his trench coat, but Kira had drawn blood from him. "Turns out somebody's not a morning person..."

" So what now? Go back to looking for food or do we rest up? I'm all for either so..." Though from the looks of this place he doubted that he'd find much. There might be a vending machine or something, he'd rather not eat from a trash can or something. He started stretching some more and bit at an itch on his backside. it wasn't very sophisticated, but it was a step above scooting, which no-one wants to see ever. It sounded like Kira's transformations come from her being pissed off, which from the behavior of the panther seemed pretty likely. He also made a note not to be too rough on her ever.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓"Oh... so you were sleeping together?" Becca asked innocently, her lips curling into a pleasant smile. "And you met in here, or did you know each other before? Either way, it sounds nice. Good for you." Maybe he'd said they weren't friends because they were more than that? She was kind of jealous.
Kira tensed at the girl's words, her head jerking toward Lake again in a blank stare. But, as soon as he touched his shoulders, she lowered her head again, staring at the floor. So she had hurt someone. She knew he smelled like blood, but she hadn't been able to tell if it was from his chest or something new.
...why did everyone keep targeting him? Including herself now, it seemed. But from the flashes she could piece together, he had been insistent on following her around. She'd told him to stay away.
As the wolf asked what they were doing next, she glanced toward him, hesitated, and then sniffed the air. "..I have to go get something," she announced, and with that she simply started off, back in the direction of the padded cell. ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake. "Yeah...sleeping together..." Lake sighed, trailing off wistfully and then shaking his head, gaze focusing onto Agro. "Hey, I'm all for finding food. You said you smelled something, right? Lead the way..." He trailed off, pausing as Kira began to walk away.
...Her choice. If she wants to wander off on her own...
He grimaced a little before allowing himself to call after her anyway. "Hey, where are you going? If you think those clothes you left behind are gonna cover anything, you're sorely mistaken...!"

Agro looked up to Becca. "I doubt that's the case there Red. Doesn't seem like his type. Either way, do we wait or soemthing?" He also remembered Lake referring to Kira as 'C-cup' which wouldn't be winning him any points. Speaking of Kira, it looked like she was off to get her clothes, which made sense, you can't really take them with you when you're an animal like this. Maybe a t-shirt but pants would be impossible. This was looking to be another long and annoying adventure where he'd probably have to stick his neck out for a bunch of dumb kids.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓"Oh..." Becca's expression fell slightly as she heard Agro, and watched the panther start off. "So she needs clothes now?" She asked, glancing down at herself and abundant attire. Well.. not really. It was more that she had a lot of accessories than actual helpful clothes to spare. "Hm..."
She glanced up as Lake started following, and found herself soon trailing after in turn. "Hey, why're you following her if you aren't sleeping together? Or even friends?"
Kira cringed a little as Lake reminded her of the status of her clothes. She knew they'd been torn to shreds, leaving her with nothing. Luckily, his warning not to let the door close had led her to block it with her sweatshirt. That would still be there.
So she turned, snarling in words Lake couldn't understand. "Don't think you'll get to see anything! I'm looking for more than clothing!" She quickly faced forward again, trotting silently down the hallway as she followed her own scent back. ♥ ☓ ♥
