 Some time after the group had left, Envy remained where he had fallen. He had little strength, and thus couldn't move, let alone change back into his preferred form. He had no choice but to rest and grumble to himself on occassion. Those stupid brats would pay for what they did to him... both of them. But it would be awhile before he'd be back to full strength again. Luckily.. his stones were still intact after that selfish transmutation of Alphonse's. The dragon's sides moved as he breathed, purple eyes closed, but an ear occasionally turning, which signaled that he was conscious and awake.  Charity had gotten news about her father, and she was angry. But she would deal with that anger later, first they needed to find her father and make sure he was alright, and get him somewhere safe. She went and gathered up any family member she could find to search for him. She was given a general location, but it was out in the woods, and finding him might prove difficult. Jade had come along with her, mother and daughter running alongside each other as they passed through the woods with haste.

Nessa soon ghosted beside Charity. "I heard." was all she said, and all that needed to be said. Chastity soon appeared behind them, her sides heaving as she ran to keep up with everyone.

 Of course he was going. Mother was worried about granddad. His sister was going. Faith didn't understand what had happened or what was going on -what could hurt granddad anyway?- but he'd go with his family. It was kind of like an adventure... he wished it had more the feel of fun to it. Worrying about granddad wasn't very fun. Not at all.
Faith flicked his tails in greeting to his grandmom, and *sniiiiiiiiif* aunt?

Hmm, now what was this? Nyhility raised a bored brow at the scene below her. She had just caught sight of her mother dashing through the woods, along with the too clean pelt of her sister. What were they up to? Blinking for some moments, the female gave a yawn and stretched. Seemed her nap would be cut short. Leaping off her branch, the blood daughter trailed after the others, no rush in her pace. Head tilted slightly when two other kitsus appeared. Hmm. They were rushing as if lead on by a bloodlust, but what was the source, she wondered. A smirk rose as her brother entered the chase, and only then did her step increase in speed.

 On some distant wind, Zeal had heard news of his father and had decided that, perhaps, he should attempt to make some... measure of contact with this family of his. So he wandered and meandered and sort of shuffled along in that bored way of his, before finding the gathering of those who were like him. "I hate to be a bother," he drawled as he padded into view, gaze scanning over those present and finding both familiar and unfamiliar faces, "but could someone please explain the reasoning behind this surely joyous family reunion?"

Charity noticed as others joined her, nodding towards her mother and those that fell in alongside her and Jade. Charity led the pack through the forest, and they seemed to be going the right way for she managed to pick up the familiar scent of her father. And really.. once they were in a relatively close distance, a big dragon kitsu wasn't easy to miss. Infact, Charity skidded to a stop once she caught sight of him, lifting a brow. Was that him? She'd never seen his true form though, but surely it was.
"Dad!" she called out, running to Envy's side and looking him over for any obvious injuries. Charity then looked up as she heard a voice, blinking once, "Zeal?" She hadn't seen either of her brothers since they were all little. How... very odd... she hadn't even been sure if they were still alive. "Its our father... he seems to be hurt." She jerked her chin in the direction of the green dragon that was Envy, before padding to him again. "Dad... who did this to you?" Jade stood next to her mother, and glanced behind her, noticing her brother and did she catch a glimpse of her sister back there? Perhaps.
Envy opened an eye and looked to those standing around. Heh. There hadn't been a family congregation like this before, and under normal circumstances, he would have been amused. Instead he bared his teeth and growled deeply in angry remembrance at what had transpired, "Stupid brats" he hissed, but that's all he said, for doing too much was difficult in his current state. His tongue lolled out of his mouth and eyes closed again.

Nessa stood still for a moment then went closer a little more cautiously. She knew that wounded predators sometimes snapped at those closest to them, even if they were family or friends. Keeping her distance from the teeth, she got as close as she dared to his head. "Some children did this to you?" she asked, not understanding. Typically brats meant young, and she was rather confused as to how kids could possibly have hurt him.
Chastity sniffed the air, unsure of the details. Pretty sure that her father would explain but she was already mad that someone had even attacked him. Sure, she knew he wasn't the nicest kitsu out there, but if someone had come looking for trouble... she hoped they were at least wounded from the encounter.

Huh? Another new scent? Someone close to mother... her brother? Why had Faith not met him before now?
And ahead... granddad's scent. Only... *blink* Granddad could turn into that too? Why wasn't granddad moving? What stupid brats? What had happened?

Nyh had finally caught up to the rest of the blood relatives, raising a brow to the sight. What was Charity babbling about? So what, it was a dead dragon. Or...
The mint green kitsu leaned her head to the side with a smirk. An almost dead dragon? Brows narrowed as she finally heard the term father. Had they all ate bad mushrooms? Or was that monsterous kitsu her actual grandpa? "Hph." The daughter sat back, one hind leg lifting to scratch harshly behind her ear. What did she care? If that male was anything like her mother and herself, then what was the big worry? An amused glance was giving to the red eyed male. "Indeed." She wouldn't say anymore to it. She didn't care, stranger or family what her tongue lashed out. But with her own mother nearby, chances of her spatting to the beat up kitsu would leave her being chased on her flanks. Sigh, what a bother.

How very strange... according to the way his siblings were acting, and his mother, this was his father... this strange... dragon-like being. He sighed softly and sat down heavily, watching the creature with a curious, calculating gaze. "Mother, my sweet, I think he may be referring to brats in general... Not exactly children, perhaps. Unless they are small, crunchy little things, eh, Father?"

Charity was unsure what her father meant as well, but she had an idea. "Perhaps he means that puny little alchemist... my mate's brother, Edward" she said to her brother. At that name, Envy's eyes opened again and he snarled, which pretty much confirmed what Charity had said. Jade just stood nearby, looking as confused as everyone else.
Charity frowned, "Can you get up, father?" she assumed he would have changed by now if he could. Rumbling irritably, Envy put his paws underneath him and with great effort, started to push himself up. However, he was weak and nearly fell again before he managed to get all the way up. "We'll just take things slow" Charity said, looking him over and seeing no visible injuries. It was then that Charity changed, her figure turning into a dragon much like Envy.. minus the stones on his horns and a bit smaller. Using her body for her father to lean against. This was a severe blow to Envy's pride, but he had little choice in the matter at the moment. It was then that Charity caught sight of her feathered daughter, "Nyhility! You'll help with the rest of us!"

Nessa frowned, her scarf fluttering about her head with worry of it's own. She made her way to the other side of the Dragon form of Envy and her daughter. She was a bit jealous that now her daughter could transmutate as well... but she had more concern at the moment than to be annoyed with the transforming mate and daughter. "Lean on us, we will support you." she told him, glaring at him when he hissed at her. "Don't you use that tone with me, just deal with it right now." she snapped back.
Chastity worried and paced near her sister and parents. She was surprised with all the others around. She had forgotten that they had young and the young had grown up. "I want to help.... just tell me what to do." she said softly. Unfortunately, she was not a very good at figuring out what to do in a situation like this.

Help... granddad? That was something Faith had never anticipated would be a situation. But... The decently large male padded over to put his weight into helping. He was not nearly as strong as those of his kin with the ouroboros, but he was much stronger than the average kitsusgi. He would help as he could.
But what was this about an Edward? An alchemist? Hadn't Cedrella & Sonmi often talked bout an alchemist named Edward that grew even slower than they did, who was close -very close or mated or something- to one of their housemates, practically living with them? This wasn't... it couldn't be the same kitsu... could it? And if it was... why would he hurt Faith's granddad?

Ears pinned down as Nyh scowled to the direct order. What did she give a crap about her grandpop and uncles and whatever. She should have just stayed in her branch to nap. A brow raised to her mother's transformation, and with a bored sigh, Nyh flicked her own tails. With a crackle, her form altered into a minty dragon. Though much smaller than Envy, and without the detailed fins. She gave a toothy grin while blowing a false kiss. "Fine fine." She weaved her longer body over her brother and under her sister, making her way beside Charity. Once there, she could only snicker and wonder how else to help drag the male dragon. What a bother.
