Ceon smiled softly when he saw Eden next to him, "I'm glad you stayed. I didn't think you would." Ceon stroked a finger against her leg and looked up at her, "How many times....did you try to kill Veroen before you fell in love with him?"

The massive black wolf wagged his tail at Sibyls exuberance and brought himself back up to his feet before he shrank back down to his more-or-less human form. Scratching one of his wolf ears he smiled at the multi-colored wolf, revealing his fangs. Though he could have remained in his Lycan form the size imposed limitations upon him, as well as the fact that he was still wounded.
"Come over here." he said to her, still wagging the tail that refused to ever leave him. "I need your help on something since you're in the best shape of us here. I need a pair of pants and someone to get my jacket from the second floor."

Eden looked slightly offended by Ceon's nonexistent faith in her though that was because she was an honest person and if she made a promise she'd die to keep it for the most part. She hated being dishonest because if she couldn't be honest with others then it would get to the point where she wouldn't know if she could trust herself either. Personally she liked being able to rely on at least herself so she tended to be honest since she was raised that way and believed all out in honesty. Karma was in there too and being a Christian also meant hell was in it as well but she also believed in forgiveness so there were quite a few things that came into play when it came to Edith's beliefs. "I promised I would still be here when you woke up and I don't generally go back on my word unless I'm given a damned good reason to. Even then ... But yeah I'm here. Your friends are awake too so they can defend themselves if I happen to go bonkers so whenever you're ready I suppose. Then again, you can't get up and defend yourself so maybe you should wait still."
It made her angry that Ceon's smile made her want to smile as well but she kept that thought to herself and made sure that she didn't give him the satisfaction of being overly friendly with him. After all, he was the one who said he didn't want to have anything to do with her or her kid so that was his problem along with the other things he tried to do. When he stroked her leg she almost jumped from the unexpected contact and considered hitting him for it but he seemed busted up enough and it wouldn't be a fair hit if she were to hit him when he could barely defend himself. Instead she looked off into a corner, glared, grumbled to herself inside her mind and turned back to him when she realized he was asking her a question.
The question that came from the lycan's lips caught her off guard and it was quite evident when she paused for a long time. She was considering the answer but mostly it'd caught her off guard and she had no idea why he'd ask a question like that or if it'd be dangerous to answer it. Eventually, after weighing the pros and cons, though, she decided it couldn't hurt to answer him since the question seemed harmless enough. "I never really attempted to kill him since he never gave me a reason to. I'm a hunter with a code: I only attack if I'm provoked. Provocations include any innocent being targeted, another hunter being targeted or myself. It's pretty damned simple. Oh and if anyone's being overly destructive in general I tend to quell whatever it is they're destroying. However, he seemed way too friendly for a vampire so at first I just figured he wanted my blood or something so I played it very paranoid. Then he eventually did almost kill me but I guess things just worked out and fell into place. Why do you ask anyhow?" The closing question was uttered with suspicion and was defensive.

"Eden...I want your forgiveness for what I've done to you. Getting you pregnant, trying to kill you, everything. I was just mad because you left before giving me a chance....as you can tell I take offence easily.." Ceon cringed as the bone shrapnel in his legs began plastering themselves together, as well as the nerves reattaching themselves.

Clearly Eden wasn't amused by this display as her hazel eyes instantly narrowed when he bagan blabbering about wanting to be forgiven. How many knobs had she listened to and just bought their bullshit stories because she felt bad for them? Too many. "Let me ask you this. Is there anything you've even done that's worth reconsidering my opinion of you? Have you even done anything that's worth forgiving you for? From what I can see you're the same old hot head that justifies your temper for doing horrible things to people. I don't care if you take offense easily or not, the point is that you got viscious, that's beyond just being upset, you were angry and you wanted to hurt me. Yeah I didn't really give you much of a chance but your temper was enough of a turn off and by doing what you did you only proved me right so I don't know. Should I? If you can tell me why I should then maybe I'll consider it."
When the lycan cringed she became slightly concerned but she used her anger to mask the fact and pretended to be absolutely indifferent to his suffering and simply sat there. She wasn't prepared to forgive him just out of the blue because he asked or at least she wasn't going to let him think that. Yeah she was still pretty pissed at him and yet she'd already pretty much forgiven him for what he'd done to her even though he'd purposely tried to hurt her. Even though he'd purposely tried to kill their child. The being pregnant thing was something she'd come to live with and it wasn't entirely his fault since it did take two to tango as he'd said but for the other things after that, she wasn't sure she was ready to let those go just yet especially when he seemed to be the exact same as he'd been before.

The wolf was pleased to see that Jaden's tail was wagging his tail at the display and she was proud of herself that she'd managed to make him happy and not upset as he'd seemed to be lately. His smile only confirmed his happiness for the time being and the wolf happily reflected her own gratefulness by running at a wall and just before crashing head-on into it she flipped herself into the air and planted her feet against the wall for a brief instant and then pushed off the wall, shooting toward where ever it was she was heading to. She gleefully ran in circles and growled and chased her tail until Jaden told her to come, which caused her sensitive ears to twitch in response to his command.
Happy to obey her alpha's command the young, excited wolf bounded toward him with the finesse and energy of one as youthful as she. She came over to him and excitedly licked his hand as she listened to him tell her that he wished to have his jacket and that he wanted a pair of pants. The wolf was off within an instant, having backed up to the far end of the building and she then took a running jump at the hole in the floor and launched herself into the second floor apartment. She easily located Jaden's jacket and simply decided to get a pair of Ceon's pants for the time being so that Jaden would be comfy.
The wolf returned to her alpha and gently nudged him in the leg with her wet nose and then raised her muzzle, which held the clothes he'd requested in them. She then raised herself onto her hind legs, her massive front paws 'wrapping' around his shoulders in what could only be interpreted as a hug from wolf to human-shaped Jaden. One quick flash and she'd licked his cheek and laid Jaden's jacket and Ceon's pants on his shoulder and bounded off, clearly rejuvinated and needing to burn off some steam.

Jaden smiled and pulled on the pants before getting up. Tearing them enough so that his tail would fit he drapped his coat over his shoulders, though the entire thing was awkward looking since Jaden didn't use his left arm for any reason.
Standing among the dust and rubble he could appreciate Sibyls desire to blow off steam, but he wasn't in the mood, Ceon was still a concern even though he was crippled. So that matter wasn't left up to him.
Happiness seemed to flicker in his eyes before dashing after the multicolored wolf. He wanted to have fun right now, as best he could with only one working arm.

As Jaden pulled on Ceon's pants, Sibyl bounded around as though she were in some grass-filled woodland as opposed to a bikeshop that belonged to someone else besides her. She wasn't treating this place as though it was a public property or store but as if it were the outdoors and the wolf continued to lope throughout the place, weaving through bikes and cars and whatever automobiles happened to be within the shop. As she ran throughout the shop she was basically having a race with herself, testing her reflexes and how capable she was of turning sharp corners and weaving through everything without knocking it over.
That, however, was when she heard Jaden fast approaching and the wolf let out a happy yip and jumped over one row of bikes to put a meaningless barricade between them since Jaden could easily jump two as she could or they could knock them over. However, once she landed she sped up with a glint of determination in her lavender eyes and stormed through the row of bikes fast enough to unsettle some of them and rock them back and forth.

This was fun. Jaden vaulted the minor barricade and force himself through the air and onto the tumbling bikes. His skills currently rested in moving through the air since he was incapable of going on all fours.
Trying to use both arms to jump off he found himself going sideways and into a car, nearly concussing himself. With a blink or two of surprise he tried to move his left arm and found he couldn't even flex his fingers. Poking the dead limb for a few moments as if it was the most fascinating thing in the world he suddenly seemed to grow bored of it and jumped onto the cars roof looking for the pretty wolf he was playing with, although at least favoring his good arm this time.

Sibyl had stopped for a moment since she realized Jaden wasn't particularly on her tail only to see him attempt to land on both arms and crash his head into a car. She snorted in slight surprise and observed as Jaden looked around in a slight daze and slight confusion only to realize he couldn't move his left arm. Or at least the was the way it seemed since he did not move it at all and he simply poked at it for a few moments, seemingly transfixed by it. The sight brought an inward smile to the wolf and she considered yipping again but she reconsidered and changed her mind.
Instead of yipping the wolf decided to take advantage of the other wolf's distraction and she slipped out of sight and gently laid herself alongside and behind a cabinet that was smothered in wood. She managed to crawl under the pile of wood resting atop the cabinet and she assured to keep her panting to a minimum so that she was almost impossible to detect. Naturally her heart was still beating so she knew it was only a matter of time before he found her but for now she laid still and laid low. This was fun indeed and quite enjoyable.

Hopping down from the ground he sniffed across the floor, continuing to wag his tail. He was tracking now, looking for his playmate. Hairs bristled on his body as he searched across the room. As a puppy his senses were underdeveloped in comparison to what his natural senses were, but it was only a block imposed upon him by his own mind. But of course, wolfen ears did not lie, and the rapid and gleeful heartbeat of a happy wolf was something he could hear.
Searching across the floor he found the bench with the cut wood. His clawed hands crashed through the bench easily even though the splinters sliced across his entire arm. Yipping gleefully at his find his tail slapped against the floor.

Upon observing from her post the gleeful puppy with underdeveloped senses drastically sniffing around for her the wolf let out a gentle sigh of amusement. The puppy quickly picked up on her excited heartbeat as she figured he would and the wolf was fully prepared for him to find her as she'd slightly thought ahead. Her own fur bristled upon hearing the jolly puppy's yip and her tail flew up and her hind legs raised while her front legs remained flat on the ground. This stance appeared more like a feline or a vixen for it was a pose that signified she was preparing to pounce.
Once the puppy began crashing his claws through the bench that was when the wolf launched herself straight toward the puppy and hit him square in the chest with her massive paws. She knocked him overbackwards with the extreme grace of a true predator and at the same time it was only fun-filled and completely unserious. One moment Sibyl was overtop of the puppy who hadn't been able to move his left arm to deflect her, licking his cheeks and the next she was bounding off elsewhere, eagerly awaiting the next chase.

Scrambling backwards along the ground Jaden licked his lips and whiped his face off before struggling back up onto his feet. The small cuts on his arms healed completely in two seconds as he gazed around looking for the wolf.
Running around in circles he kept hopping up onto cars to try and see better, maybe even find his playmate... but mostly it was just running around ignoring the others in the room.

Sibyl had distanced herself a fair ways from Jaden as he took his time scrambling along the ground and while he was wiping his face the wolf managed to leap up onto the second floor. That was where she watched the puppy and observed him until he stood still atop a single car and that was when she jumped down from the floor above. The landing was loud enough to be heard even though her padded feet made the landing pretty quiet but she quickly zipped off toward another part of the building, yipping as she went.

Jaden's ears swivled for the moment he heard the landing and then the following yips. He jumped down and followed her from the garage floor, crashing his way through the halls as he found his coordination with having a bum arm. At the very least he had left Ceon alone with Eden for the moment.
