 Sohrab had absolutely no freaking idea how he suddenly grew balls only to have them to shrink right off three-fourths of the way there. Meaning he had straight out sprinted the last bit in order to not just wuss out and go back to the Mountain. He didn't tell anyone he was going, not that it mattered because he 'was a full grown boy now and can take care of himself and doesn't need Daddy to take him places' but really he was sure that Daddy was actually still asleep and just saying anything. But still after probably an hour of staring down the path he had 'grown some balls' and went.
So there the little yellow frazzled ball of fur was. Finally in the Realm, panting like a madman and his fur in not so great of a condition after running through all the brush and such. He moved himself where he deemed 'safe enough' and flopped down to rest.
Only then did he remember why he actually came here. It had been a long while since he had last seen Youou-kun. He missed him for he was quite certain that the younger kit was his only friend in the world. But now he was tired and was actually too frazzled to get up and look for the kitsu.

Youou on the other hand, was slowing padding through the forest, nothing much different about him aside from his now adult form and the blind fold covering his eyes. He had grown since he had last seen Sohrab, but that currently wasn't on his mind. What was on his mind, though, was what he had gotten himself into when agreeing to train with his father. Sure it had earned a proud smirk from his father, one he was always happy to see, but then it was soon followed by him being left alone in the forest with a blindfold on and being told to find his way home without taking it off.
A tired sigh escaped the kitsu's maw as he bumped into yet another tree. He was getting sick and tired of this training exercise, and was afraid of what he may look like once the bruises finally settled. He had a right mind to some how con his sister into leading him home without having to take off the blindfold, but this thought was cut short as the kitsu stumbled over something, and fell to the ground with a yelp and a curse. " WHAT THE HELL!?"

Sohrab squealed when something collided with him. He was under attack! The male immediately curled into a ball, his outer being trembling in fear that whatever it was would get seconds, then thirds, then fourths, and so on until he was no more!
Though...voice kinda sorta sounded familiar. If only it was a little...squeakier. The male peered out between his tails, tilting his head at the 'thing'. Which was a kitsu. A rather familiar colored kitsu. With a coat. And black hair. He only knew one kit with a coat a black hair. "Youou...........-kun?????????"

Youou rolled to his feet, an low mumble about his clothes and hair getting messed up being said as he went to dusting himself off. " Oy! Dumb a**, next time you feel like camping out in the middle of the damned forest, try not to get in my way!" But the obsessive dusting and ranting stopped short as he heard his name being voiced from what he assumed to be said 'dumb a**,' apparently he knew him. He tilted his ears toward the voice and arched a brow in question, similar to the way his father would. Had he not been so young at the time he had last met this kitsu, he probably would have caught on much quicker. "Eh? Who're you?" He wanted to take the blindfold off, especially since he was faced with a possible enemy.
With a flick of his tails, he turned toward the stranger, acting as if he didn't even have his eyes covered. He would try his best not to fail his training exercise.

Sohrab gave a small whimper. Youou-kun didn't remember him. Or recognize him. He was pretty sure that he didn't change much. Still, it didn't explain the sudden heavy and sad feeling the male had in his chest. Was he that forgettable?
The male slowly got up, thinking that maybe he could possibly remind the other. But...he was wearing a blindfold and he was nowhere near skilled enough to even take off one of those. He didn't know how, nor did he trust himself to do so. He slowly approached the other doing the only thing that came to his mind and lightly put his jaws around the other's head to the best of his ability since the other had grown quite a bit since he had last seen him.

Youou stiffened as he felt the other move, his eyes blindly following his movements by mere sound. He could have sworn there was something familiar about this other kitsu, and perhaps that is why he held so still as the other got closer. The usual brow arch was in place and a frown that only screamed " I really wish I weren't here now." He had his father's mannerisms down pact, or at least he liked to think so. And that was at least until he felt the other put his jaws around his head.
The younger kitsu's first thought was to panic and escape, but something seemed to stop him, and he couldn't help the chuckle that escaped his maw, and then the memory seemed to catch right up to it. He knew this kitsu, and knew him well, but his long absence had made him forget or rather, had made it harder for him to remember as easily, especially while blind.
" Sohrab...I told you I wasn't food!" Another chuckle escaped the younger kitsu as he shook his head slightly, feigning escape. "And I'm still not!"

A sigh of relief escaped him as he let go of the other. He very well couldn't just out weigh him anymore because quite simply Youou-kun could very well beat the stuffing out of him. The elder chuckled before giving the other a long (desperate) nuzzle. "But Youou-kun still tastes good." To emphasize he gave the other a long wet lick from neck up to the other's ear, which he immediately started to nibble on.
As he was nearly devouring the other, Sohrab couldn't help but give the other another once over. He had definitely grown up to be extremely handsome. And more so. FANGS! Oh he loved those fangs already.

Youou leaned into the nuzzle out of habit (Celes was a very affectionate twin) his brow arching in question yet again as he felt the lick. "That may very well be true," he grinned wickedly, flashing fang, "But you can't eat me Sohrab, I'm training!" He pressed a paw against his blindfold. " Father told me not to take this off until I made my way home."

Sohrab relinquished the ear as he went to look at the other again. Indeed the other seemed a little banged up and even more brush-like than he. He pouted, though the other couldn't tell, and wondered why on earth he was actually doing this. Well, whatever his father wanted he guessed. The other was 'his father's child'. The other chuckled, nosing and pawing out all the sticks, leaves, and dirt out of the other's fur and coat. "Youou's kinda sucking at that."

Youou held still as he felt Sohrab help him clear debris from his clothes and fur, sighing tiredly."Well you tripping me didn't exactly help my condition either. But father said I should be able to sense objects without my eyesight. Therefore, I would be able to walk home without bumping into things. But its harder than he made it seem." He grumbled, flicking his tails angrily.
"The mage did tell me, though, that he had done this exact training to another kid, and that the kid had a hard time too but eventually got it." He frowned, his ears flattening against his skull,"Don't wanna disappoint Father..."
He shook himself mentally, his frown almost instantly turning into a grin," Well why are you out here anyways? Aren't you a bit far from home yourself?"

The unclothed of the two only gave a small nuzzle in apology for 'tripping' the other. But really Sohrab was just as surprised as Youou. He really wasn't great at this 'sensing' thing but since he was generally a more careful and paranoid kit he might be able to say that he would be better than his fanged friend. "I think...you're focusing too much. Youou-kun should relax and slow down, senses take a while to get used to living without one of their brothers."
Unusually wise words for the one who never got out enough. Considering most of his outings involved Youou, thus making it...two. The yellow kit nosed the other forward with a bit of encouragement, knowing that he shouldn't attempt to help him. Though he stopped in his movements when the other asked him why exactly he was there. The male blushed, thankful that the other couldn't see him. Extremely softly he muttered, "I missed Youou-kun................."

" Focusing too much?" For some reason the advice sounded familiar. Had Celes said something similar to him before he had left with father? He sighed, trying out the advice before he felt himself nudged into movement. " Oy! No pushing required, I'm going I'm going." He closed his eyes behind the blindfold and took a deep, calming breath before following the sound of Sohrab's steps.
The younger kitsu stopped in his tracks soon after he had started, however, for two reasons.
1. He was still not using his senses in order to see, and was instead using the sound of his friend's steps as a handicap and
2. what Sohrab had just said caught him a bit off guard, but he wouldn't let it show, oh nonono.
Instead he grinned, flashing fang yet again before he began to walk on his own trying to sense things around him without his sight. " Well I am easily missed. I'm sure the mage and Celes are worried sick by now."

Sohrab kept moving, just a bit slower since he was pretty sure his face was gonna burn off from saying that. It wasn't his fault that he was...ah, how was it that Amrit put it? He was....'So homo for the Youou'? He didn't understand what that meant but it involved so he guessed it had to be some sort of teasing that Amrit, Anatole, and Apoy used a lot. But he didn't get it. At all. Which is why he stopped talking about the other at home.
The other turned, watching the other fondly. Youou was just...well....he didn't know. Special? But Daddy did always say that your first friend was probably your most valuable. The other probably should've kept his eyes off the black-haired kit for a bit but even if he wanted to look ahead it wouldn't stop him from stepping on a particularly jagged rock. He let out a high pitched yowl, holding his paw up. It was stuck in there. And it hurt!!!

Youou's ears pinned back at the sudden yowl from Sohrab, yet again halting in place so as not to run into the older kitsu and make whatever had happened worse. "Oy, what did you do? You alright?"
His eyes had opened behind the blindfold again, and as he tried his best to see what wouldn't be there, he suddenly felt sick to his stomach. He frowned, pushing back the sudden feeling of illness that only seemed to happen to him when he had missed a few meals during training. But he hadn't forgotten to eat before setting off on this exercise, he had even eaten more than usual just in case. Perhaps that was it?

Sohrab settled down onto his rump, still holding his injured paw up. He whimpered and sobbed audibly, but not so loudly. He futilely attempted to pull the thing out but every time he got his teeth around it, it just hurt badly. Blood was starting to streak down the sides and drip to the forest floor. "It's stuck! It's stuck! It hurts Youou! It hu~urts." He was starting to get panic-y and since he lacked much experience he had absolutely no idea where this amount of pain measured.
