Setsuna flicked an ear in acceptance and dipped his head, though his fur only slightly flattened. The werecat rose, his slate-gray mane ruffling. //Come.\ He said, as he began to prowl forward. Setsuna's muscles and shoulders rippled with each graceful movement. //I'd rather not transform back in open forest.\ With that, Setsuna turned sharply and leapt through some brush.

"Very well Setsuna," Shiane said as she scooped up Zeek and followed the werecat into the brush. She had to decide against shapeshifting herself, wanting to avoid anything that could happen, but she turned her attention to the imp in her arms. "So what brings youto me Zeek?" she asked, now using the elven language.
Zeel looked up at her and thensaid, "Your mother would like you to make haste through this forest and find the small clan of her people that are in desperate need of you Lady Shiane." he said, omitting any other titles and names than that of Shiane.

Setsuna's tail flicked in response, a sign to them both that he was listening. The werecat wasn't an idiot. He could speak many different tongues. His slate fur brushed lightly over leaves and twigs as he made his way through the thick trees. Soon, they neared a cave, just big enough for them all to be comfortable. //Here.\ Setsuna's paws lightly touched the stone as he padded into the cave, making no sound. He curled up in the corner far left, sweeping his tail around himself. The werecat's golden-green eyes watched Shiane and the imp intently.

Going into the cave, Shiane remained near the entrance, Zeek still in her arms, though he climbed down to the ground when he sat down. He bowed to her and then disappeared in a brown mist. Once he was gone Shiane turned to Setsuna and gave a small smile. "I'm sorry for slipping into elven like that, but I've known it since I was young. And it's easier to use it most of the time." she said, switching back to the Common language.

Setsuna shrugged his lean shoulders, tail flicking in amusement. //If it's the language you're most fond of, then it will be used.\ He said in elven. It wasn't like Setsuna to get attatched to someone so quickly, but Shiane had grown on him and she was a friend. The werecat gave a purr, then looked up. The moon was completely gone.
In an instant, Setsuna was obscured by an emerald light. When it faded, in his place sat a golden-haired boy with small wings on his back. He made this form visible to Shiane too. "This is me." He said, still speaking elvish.

Surprised at both him using elven and his new form, she was speechless. She had remembered he said that he was a werecat, but she never thought it through, always thinking that she was traveling with an oversized cat. But shaking her head to clear those thoughts she also had to make sure that her mind was closed down to others, she was powerful enough that if she did't consciously put shields o her thoughts and powers, they would get away from her and she would "hear" things that she didn't want or need and magic would try to escape, never knowing what could come of it. But when she looked at him again, more clearly this time, the only thought that ran through her mind was. "He's cute." and she didn't know of she managed to block it out in time.

Setsuna's wings flicked and he brushed back his golden hair, staring at Shiane with no expression. Yes, werecats could do many unexplainable things, and yes, Setsuna heard her thoughts. He gave a little grin, and then lay back, folding his arms behind his head. "Surprise." He said with a grin.

Blinking she managed to clear her thoughts once more, "I'm sorry in advance if my powres got away from me. I may be a Master, but I am no where as sufficient as those that came before me, nor am I as sufficient as my adoptive family." she added as an afterthought, trailing her fingers over the symbol-scar on the inside of her wrist.

Setsuna laughed. "Don't worry about it." He said, climbing out of the cave to stretch. He looked back at Shiane over his shoulder. "And thanks. You're pretty cute too." Even if Setsuna wasn't straight, that didn't mean he couldn't think a girl was cute or pretty, which Shiane was. His wings fluttered lightly.

Faintly blushing she rose to ehr feet again, climbing out after him and then said, "I must cotninue on, but would...you...like to accomany me? It's always nice to have a friend to talk to." she said. It was always nice to have SOME one to talk to, even if the person was of another species....not that Shiane really cared...she had numerous friends that were of other species, though not that were as different as Setsuna.

Not as though Setsuna needed any time to think it over, he nodded and grinned. "I'd like that. But tell your imp he'd better watch it or he'll be skewered." He said, his wings fluttering. He'd enjoy traveling ith Shiane. He hadn't had a companion since...well, since a few months.

Smiling at him she replied, "You skewer him and you will have to answer to Princess Marsel'lilas." she knew what she had revealed, and didn't care. But she also needed Zeek to remain alive.

At the name, Setsuna froze, his eyes narrowed and his wings twitched. "...don't ever speak that name to me." He said cooly, fists clenching. The werecat spirit stood there silently for some time, before turning to stare at Shiane. "She's the one who killed me...and stole what was dearest to me."

Shiane froze where she stood, staring blankly at him before hotly replying with no thoughts as to what she was about to say, "Why would my mother do such a thing as kill a werecat? She has many friends among your people." then that was when she realized what just flew from her mouth and shut it. "I'm sorry, I spoke out of turn." she mumbled.

Setsuna's eyes narrowed at her words and he sort of scowled. "Not with me and...what she stole." The werecat spirit was careful with his words. His past still haunted him and he didn't want to think about it, for it would just bring him pain.
