From a shadow behind the bed raises a six foot pitch black she wolf with human hair on her head. Her golden eyes gleam at Trinity with a cold fury. A low rumble raises from the throat of the she wolf as she drops to all fours and approaches Trinity slowly.
Freya continues her vigil from the shadows. The wolf was in fact her other half made real. A trick she had learned a while ago if she needed a partner in a pinch. They had discussed it earlier. If Trinity tries to run, she would pounce and start licking her madly while giving her prey a great big hug. If she shadow slid, Freya would find her wherever she went, then punish Trinity for running by allowing the wolf to (once again) give Trinity a great big hug and lick her like crazy.
Okami, the she wolf, is Freya's were-side. During her entire life, whenever there was a new moon, she was sheltered by her mother and father. Fed, cared for, domesticated. This led to her becoming nothing more than a giant six foot puppy with claws and fangs. Although she looks dangerous, deep down she just wants to play and have fun all the time. Okami is the reason for Freya's erratic and often immature behavior.

"YIPES! Nu-nu-n-nice doggy?" her eyes were wide and glowing, unaware of the wolf's true nature she wasn't sure what to do. If she rushes out it would chase her. She backs up slowly.
In the back of her head she thought they let people keep pets here?
Then her mind darted to a different direction, Wait a minute! What if this is Freya? She had ears and a tail ealier. Maybe this is her full form. If that's the case she would not let this go and laugh her tail off at that thought she stopped backing up. "I don't want to hurt you Freya but I will defend myself." at least I hope I can she didn't realize it but she took a defensive stance. Even if she didn't know what she was doing her instincts seem to know exactly what to do.

Okami can't help it anymore. She is by far too much enamored by how cute she finds Trinity. Freya chuckles from within the shadows, knowing what is about to happen.
The wolf sits up and brings her arms up to her chest, squealing like a little girl that had just seen a puppy in a little red wagon, "Kawaii! I like you very much already!" She bounds with her hind legs with her tongue hanging out of the side of her mouth. She wraps her arms around Trinity and squeezes her tightly. "I'm Okami, let's be friends!"

It was all too much for her. Starting off by being intimidated by how tall she was on her hign legs. Startled and weirded out when she started talking in a young girls voice. Then finding out that it wasn't Freya then hugged uncomfortably tight (and since she doesn't usually hug with an introduction unless if it was family this REALLY made her feel uncomfotable). She goes into the darkness between them and imediatly pops up from behind.
If this isn't Freya then this must have done something to her. "Where's Freya!? What have you done to her!?" still seeing the wolf as a threat, it very well may have tried to lull her Into thinking that she's just a playful puppy. She continues her defensive stance. She was seriously hoping she would not answer 'she was delicious'

Okami's ears tip in confusion. She points one of her claws over Trinity's shoulder. "What are you talking about? She's right behind you hiding in the shadow. You didn't see her when you shadow slid?"
The cat being out of the bag, Freya steps out of the shadows. Her tone of voice is a bit more mature and even. "That's enough Okami. I think Trinity has had enough puppy love for to last her at least a month."
She bows to Trinity apologetically, "Sorry about that Trinity, but such surprise attacks are going to be commonplace as you learn how to defend yourself. Be fortunate that it was my big fluffy alter ego that I decided to send after you. My father was ironic enough to actually hide a very much pissed off and hungry wild wolf in my bathroom when I was eight."
She walks past Trinity and pets Okami's head. The she wolf's tail wags uncontrollably while her tongue pants heavily. Freya smiles and looks back up at Trinity. "This is Okami. You will see her at least 7 nights of the month during the period of the new moon. She can be extremely childish, but you'll learn to get used to her. She will also be your sparring partner when you need someone larger than myself or Teshou for a lesson."
Okami bows respectfully and smiles, her head of human hair (which upon closer inspection looks exactly like Freya's) frames her furry face. "Sorry about squeezing you so tight. I sometimes forget my own strength, and I love to meet new friends."

Trinity looks to where the she wolf was pointing, she guess she didn't detect Freya when shadow sliding because she was doing it too fast and was focused on getting out of the beast's grip. She sees Freya come out and was glad that she wasn't in her position when she was eight.
She watches as Freya pets the big wolf as if she was a domesticated dog. She was glad she took the she wolf seriously especially since she now learned that she was going to be a sparing partner from time to time.
Finding it a little awkward talking to a wolf she responds, "It's okay... no harm done..." she looks to Freya,"Does sensei have one as well?"

Freya shakes her head. "In a manner of speaking yes. However, Teshoumaru is someone who likes to be in control. I'm not in full control of myself because I share my body with Okami. When Teshoumaru was faced with the beast, he actually took complete control of it. This led to a bit of a problem though. Because he had locked the beast within himself to use it's power, it's ki became massive and malignant. That seal on his back is to keep it locked away for good."
Freya sits down on the bed while Okami hops up onto an office chair and starts to spin around in it. "It all goes back to our father. He attacked a pack of shadow stalkers, werewolves that can hide in a shadow, without any form of provocation with the rest of his clan. They thought the wolves as nothing more than monsters. My father killed a mother and her pup, and the father cursed him. This curse was passed to my brother and I. While Teshou's lay dormant until a terrible event that took place years ago, I was born with the ears of a wolf. When I reached adolescence, I grew my tail. I am still bound by the rules of the curse, but my brother is in complete control of the wolf."

"So, if Okami comes when the new moon hits... does this mean sensei becomes the beast on the night of the full moon? Since you say he locked the beast inside himself, that's what I guessed would happen or does it work differently?"
Werewolves...never thought I'd run into one... or at least someone that was cursed by one. They're twins yet they were both affected by the curse differently and are completely different in personality. Trinity sits next to Freya on her bed. Speaking of sensei, I wonder if he's okay...he's been gone a long time...

Still spinning around in the chair Okami decides to add in her two cents, "Nope, Teshou-niisan doesn't change during the dark moon. He's only succumb to the beast once, and that was when he was on death's doorstep. The seal keeps that from happening."
"Even then it isn't the wolves that give us our power, it was something else. Teshou and I were both trapped in the shadow realm for nearly ten years. In that time the dark ki of the realm invaded and twisted our wolves. The seal around my neck is more for Okami then for me. Whereas the seal for Teshou is to suppress both the wolf and the shadow beast. Here let me show you."
Freya scoots out a little bit and places her foot on in a shadow on the floor. It wiggles and bends, then becomes a small figure of Okami. The real Okami looks away from the demonstration, having lived it and not really wanting to be reminded of it.
Freya makes the small Okami sit on her rear and scratch her right ear with her hind leg. "This is the wolf, Okami...but this." The small Okami pantomimes howling in pain. Something that looks like smoke begins pouring out of her mouth and fingernails, enveloping the wolf who is now on the ground writhing in immense pain. One the smoke has covered her it stands. Only yellow eyes pierce the smoke, and a gaping black maw where her mouth would be. Wisps of the smoke move more like tendrils, eager to snag it's prey. Freya says solemnly, "This is the beast, Shin-Okami. It exists only to feed, dragging people within itself to be fed. The entire body of the creature is a door into the shadow realm. Any creature that dies in the shadow realm only serves to enhance it's power. The seal around my neck, and the one on Teshou's back not only keeps the beasts at bay, but it also allows us to use it's power. This is a power that comes at a price however. The seal allows some of the beast's ki to leak out and combine with ours. This not only enhances our ki reserve, but it gives us our power to use the shadows. However, if we expend all of our own ki, even the seal wont be enough to keep the beast chained. That is why, with time and training, you will be stronger than either Teshou or I."
The show melts back into the shadows. Freya pats Trinity's hand in a sisterly manner. "Do you have any other question's before we get started?"

Eros smiled, looking down at his feet. He was always verbally shy, even in this oblivion of a paradise, the endless plains seeming to drift for miles in his seamless eyes. "Eros is my name." He kicked at a flower, destroying it completely with his foot.
His leg had been a blur.
"So if I'm crazy, and your crazy.." Eros laughed, "Then we must obviously be asleep."
With that, Eros grabbed up Lily, hugging her to his chest, face to face.
Eros was shy, but contact with another was something he found natural, his eyes smiling directly into Lily's. "Grab my waist tight," his breath smelled of peppermint toothpaste and old memories, Eros then adding, "If were not actually dead, we should date." Eros winked.
With that, Eros shot off at at least Mach One, suddenly shattering the atmosphere of the dream world, firing into the universe.
Then Eros woke up.
---
Eros shot up, suddenly knowing everything that he needed to know. He would need Lily..
And a another..
"Gid?...Gid something.."
Eros shook his head, beginning to float. His leg was swollen around the break, and Eros groaned, beginning toward the hospital.
He had to save Lily Stinson.

Lily nodded at his name, though she doubted it was real, after all who would be named Ero's? she shook her head, the though quickly vanishing as the man suddenly hugged her, insisting that she held onto his waist. Her eyes widen at the phsycial contact, it had been a while since anyone, even her own mother, had touched her let alone hug her. Baffled by the movement, her arms reluctently found their way around his waist.
Needless to say, as soon as her fingers locked around the small of Ero's back, they shot into the air in such a speed Lily felt the adrinlin rush through her vains like snake venom. The feeling was more then welcome, she hadn't had such a rush since she last topped out her bike at speeds close to 120 mph.
Suddenly however, Lily felt as if the line of exestiance had been shattered. Her mind suddenly being flooded with memories that did not belong to her. Lily and Ero's minds had linked. She knew all he knew, as he knew all she did. At least what was on the surface of the mind.
***
Lily awoke in a cold sweat, panting and still feeling like she'd sky dived out of a chopper. "Ero's!" she screamed, suddenly realizing that he was right, they where asleep.. And he had mananged to wake them both from their coma. The dark haired girl bit her lip, slumping back against the wall for a moment, going over all the recent knowlage she with held in her mind.
Finally, she rose to her feet, running her hand through her sweat soaked hair. Wiping the rolling beads from her brow. She looked at the card that Shane had given her, sighing. Sorry Shane.. I hope you can forgive me... But I think my help is withen myself. Lily then took out a pen and wrote on the card for someone to find. "Sorry, Shane Morris." she knew the note would find him, after all.. It was wrighten to him, and all knew his name. She was sure he'd know who it came from, after all he had graded countless papers of hers to begin with, he would no doubt know her hand wrighting.
Then Lily began to make her way through the exit, having memorized her way from when they first entered Vahalla. She had to find Ero's, she had to see if he was real, or if he was just a figment of her imagination, which ment... she had to go back to the hospital...
....
Lily arrived at the hospital in no time, seeing it was located a few blocks away from the university, she was glad to see that she was able to arrive without any difficulty, and that her bike was still safe and sound where she had last left it. She kicked the stand down in front of the hospital, taking a few steps towards the building. She had to find Ero's.

Rikki Tikki Travi Freya pats Trinity's hand in a sisterly manner. "Do you have any other question's before we get started?" "I think I'm beginning to understand your's and sensei's predicament. It makes me wonder about my own power a bit...but I can save those questions for another day. Heh I think we'd spend the res of the day talking at the rate I'm going. Or talking until sensei comes back, heh heh" she rubs the back of her head as she laughs. "I'm ready to start training now." she stands up wearing her big hoody jacket a tee shirt flared jeans that were long enough to be a bit baggy and a pair of sneakers.

Freya stands, "Glad to hear it, but first..." She turns and faces her lupine counterpart. "Alright you, it's time to go back to sleep now."
Okami pouts, her ears folding downwards. "Aww, do I have to. I just got to come out. Why don't we hit up a club or something. I wanna get laid!"
Freya blushes deeply as she stammers out, "I can't believe you just said that! Now you really need a time out." Freya makes a sign with her right hand and mutters something in Japanese. Okami seems to almost melt as her body breaks down and returns to Freya's shadow. The woman turns and faces Trinity. Already it is apparent the kind of influence having the wolf inside of her is having on her personality.
"Alrighty then, I hope you're ready to work! Before we begin though, I need to know what kind of lifestyle you have. Y'know, so that way I know how hard I need to work ya physically so that you can improve and...y'know, not die or anything."

Trinity swallows hard as she casually mentioned the phrase 'improve and...y'know not die or anything'.
She thought a moment before she answered the question, "My lifestyle, before I didn't exercise, maybe just riding my bike to wherever I needed to go, just more focused on my studies then played a video game and then go to bed not long before the meteor came I was part of a play, was practicing them outside when it all happened. After the meteor riding the bike was easier on me I wouldn't be as tired. In PE I was the best student there, the teams wanted to recruit me instead of having me try out first. I declined them all, it wouldn't be fair to the other students and I also quit the play. I kept myself isolated as I searched all over for other people who were hit by meteors. It was rather difficult. There was only the one that I found in the newspaper but she died. So there you have it I guess..."

Standing up Alix shook his head, he didn't remember what happened, the last he remembered was that person holding a sword squaring off against him. Then, everything went dark, he must have passed out. Looking around he saw that the tin woodsman was back, and this time he was facing off against the swordsman.
Everyone should probably get inside. he heard a woman say as he looked around, upon seeing her he raised his eyebrows. She looked strange, but, then he'd never seen her before. For all he knew she could have always looked like that. "No need to tell me twice girl... I just came here for my property. But, since she's gone..." He began to mutter to himself as he headed towards the hospitals doors.
Stepping inside he kept walking. It wasn't his problem that those idiots decided to get themselves embroiled in an all out death match. He just wanted what was rightly his, Lily. She'd left because of that b*****d, Shane, he believed she called him. "You'll regret taking her from me you idiot." He spoke softly, his voice barely above a whisper.
With the fact he'd spent more than enough time in hospitals he knew the basic layout of them pretty well. Making a beeline towards the stockroom, the locked room they kept their medical supplies he groaned. From what he could see it required a fingerprint to allow entrance . Since his wasn't on file he'd have to do things the hard way. "Just my God damn luck..." He exclaimed as he turned away from the door, looking for a member of the hospital staff.
((Sorry for the delay... Computer problems, video game and lack of motivation.))
