Kira and Harper both stopped, Harper a mere second before Kira. They looked back at Kasce and Sylvia and then looked back at each other. "Hey, uh, Kasce...? Is she ok...?" Harper asked. Kira took a step forward in case she needed to help with anything. Ryker looked back as well, and then looked at Lyra. "Lyra, wait up a minute. I think something's wrong with Sylvia..." He turned his attention back to their other travel companion.

Sylvia:a
"My heads... Killing me..." She groaned through clenched teeth. It only got worse over time, and she began to think she ws dying or something. She let out a pained scream as the pain continued to worsen, making her fall to the side and onto her back. She curled into the fetal position position while still clutching her head. The grass around her began to wither and die as whispering entered Sylvia's head. "Oh god, MAKE IT STOP!" She screamed, her head now feeling as if it were going to explode. She began to feel sick to, maybe it was just the pain...

Kasce & Lyra:
"Huh?" Lyra remarked as she turned around. She moved to join the others around Sylvia. Kasce jumped back slightly as the grass around Sylvia died. He stood back listening to Sylvia's cries, trying to figure out what to do. He didn't want to risk getting to close seeing as the grass had died, and whatever did that might do the same to him. If he knew he could help than it would be worth a shot. "we need a fire." Kasce said finally.

Kira's eyes widened a bit as Sylvia screamed and she looked at Ryker. "Ryker, what's-?!" She turned back to Sylvia, not even finishing her question. Harper placed a hand on Kira's shoulder, looking as troubled and distraught as she did. "Kira, calm down. We can't do anything..." Ryker's face hardened a bit. At Kasce's demand for a fire, Kira looked at him. "How big of a fire do you need?" She removed her gloves, and flexed her fingers. The piece of steel on the pad of her right palm glinted in the light, contrasting harshly with the piece of flint on her left. The steel and flint were imbedded in her palms, with enough on the surface to spark. Kira had found it quicker to have this done, than to fumble for a lighter. She was, after all, a bit klutzy.

Kasce:
Kasce looked over at Kira, noting the steel and fire in her hands. "Don't get too excited, we only a fire that's large enough to keep everyone warm. There's nothing we can do right now that's safe. So for now we need to get everything ready for when whatever is happening is done." Kasce replied "If everything goes the way I think it will than we're going to have to make camp here."Kasce sighed slightly and set down his bag before turning around. "I personally think that you, Harper and Lyra should stay here and get the fire going, Ryker and I can go get material to put together a shelter."

Sylvia:
Sylvia laid on the ground, shuddering as she endured the pain. The whispers did not help either. She groaned in pain as another ripple of pain was sent down her spine. 'Whats happening to me...' She thought. After another few minutes, the pain all stopped. Cautiously, she sat up slowly. As her vision cleared a faded image of a person was sitting right in front of her. It spoke to her, but the words were fuzzy sounding and she couldn't understand. The faded figure stood up and lunged into her, causing a massive wave of pain. She let out a scream, that was cut off shortly as she fell backwards. She lay in the grass, staring up at the sky, unable to move. Her breathing slowed to the point where it didn't show, and eventually, darkness clouded her vision until she was conscious no more.

Kira nearly found her eyes welling up with the amount of pain Sylvia appeared to be in, but when her breathing seemed to stop, an entirely new fear settled in. "Oh my god... No..." She made a move towards her and Ryker grabbed her. "Ryker, LET ME GO!" She struggled against his hold for awhile, and finally stopped. Her head hung and her shoulders shook. Harper looked away from the scene. "How the hell...?" She frowned. 'What an awesome way to start everything...'

Kasce:
At the sound of Kira's screams, Kasce turned around. He could see that the screams were warranted. Silently he walked over to Sylvia and knelt next to her and placed his index and middle finger on her neck. Greeted with the feel of a pulse, Kasce turned to Kira. "Please calm down and make a fire, than get some sleep. Lyra can you please take Ryker's place and help Kira calm down. Ryker I'm still going to need your help with getting material for a shelter."He said, while standing up.

Kira growled low in her throat, and her eyes narrowed a bit as she shrugged Ryker off of her. She moved over to where Harper had set up a makeshift fire pit. She quickly slid her hands together, creating a spark which she quickly grew into a flame and set in the pit. "There." Kira set her eyes to stone and sat by the fire, bringing a bit of wind up and fanning the flames. Harper looked over at Ryker and Kasce. "I'll help you guys. I know these woods pretty well, and there are a few really good spots to gather supplies." Ryker nodded. "That's fine. We'll get it done faster this way, anyway." He glanced at Kira, before sighing. "Let's go." He stuffed his hands in his pockets and set off through the woods. Harper jogged after him with a swish of her tail.

Kasce:
He found himself following behind Harper and Ryker into the forest. "So exactly how far off are these areas that good for gathering materials?" Kasce asked keeping an eye out for anything that could be used.
Lyra:
Lyra looked on as she was left with Kira and the unconscious Sylvia. She easily moved Sylvia closer to the fire. Sitting down next to Sylvia, Lyra looked over at Kira. "So what's wrong?" she asked, guessing something was from the way she seemed to be upset about the plans that had just been made.

Harper nodded her head a bit. "Not far. There's a good spot right up here. There's a river not too far from here that a small clan of beavers calls home during winter. They should be gone by now. Their dam however, should still be there." Ryker nodded a bit. "That should do the trick." Harper nodded in response and glanced around the woods.
Kira glanced over at Lyra before staring back into the fire. "...I don't like the way he acted about Sylvia. I mean, she literally just dropped like a rock. What happened to her wasn't shock. I think something is legitimately wrong with her... I'm worried. And it seems like he just doesn't care in the least." Her eyes narrowed a bit. "And the idea that he doesn't care just pisses me off." Kira hadn't known their little group long, well, except for Ryker of course; but she cared about everyone unless given strong reason not to. She could even sympathize with her enemies. Though, that got her into trouble sometimes, she'd admit. She simply couldn't help it.

Lyra:
"Ah, so that's it." Lyra chuckled slightly in realization. It was a usual problem that really had no solution that Lyra could think of, except to explain. "Don't take his reaction as apathy, or a sign of him not caring. That's just how he is. I share at least some of the blame for sending him out to get things, but he's just learned to get what he needs to get done what needs to be done at the moment."

Kira's frown lessened a bit, but she remained a bit pouty. "Well, that makes sense..." She stared into the flames and glanced at Sylvia. "...I just hope she's ok...."

Lyra:
"I think everyone of us hopes the same thing." Lyra responded as she leaned back, sprawling out on the ground.

Kira sighed and stared into the fire. "I suppose you're right."
Harper huffed. She had wandered away from Ryker and Kasce after showing them to a great spot for supplies. Now she was pretty bored and she'd managed to ram her forehead into a low branch, scraping her face a bit. She normally wouldn't care, only now, she had a pounding headache. She bent down and picked up another few sticks. She sighed. 'Same old thing, I guess...'

Name: Ghiir
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Species: Werewolf
Affiliation: Civilian
Personality: Extremely loyal to friends, as he wants to protect the ones he's close to. Friendly, though due to the recent deaths of all he knew he has become a little detached.
Appearance: 6"2'. Has slightly long black hair with silver tips. (Long as in it goes down to his jaw line) Very slightly tanned. Hazel eyes (Werewolf: 8"3'. Black fur with a silver stripe down his back and to the tip of his tail.
Other: He wants to be a part of a group again, so he can fill the void his dead pack left.
(And that, is my recreation of Ghiir.)
Ghiir:
The sound he heard may have come from something downwind, but he heard it none the less. As he stalked towards in his werewolf form, he noticed something different about the sounds of his prey. But he paid no mind to the difference as he was pretty hungry. Once he was at the edge of some bushes he heard the prey make a sound against the tree he thought his presence was known, so instead of letting it go he leaped from the bushes and pounced on top of his pray. To his confusion, he looked down and saw a girl. The better side of him told him not to kill her, so he got up off her and sighed before shifting to his human form. "Sorry about that..." He apologized, rubbing the back of his neck.

Harper nearly screamed, but instead she settled for glaring. She stood and dusted herself off, her tail slightly bristled. "Damn right you are! Jumping out at people, and scaring the shit out of them... You're lucky I don't have my knife with me." Her ears laid back and she crossed her arms. "Apology accepted, I guess. I'm Harper. Who are you?"

Ghiir:
Ghiir cleared his throat a bit before speaking. "Uh, it's Ghiir. Nice to meet you Harper." He smiled, trying to be friendly to the person he had just jumped on. "Again, sorry. I was just hunting and, well you were downwind and you weren't talking. I thought you were prey or something." He explained, with a sigh.

Harper rolled her eyes and raised an eyebrow. "Well, when was the last time you ate?" She was a bit intrigued by this guy. She hadn't seen a male werewolf in years, and even then, it had been her biological father.

Ghiir:
"A day ago... Seems the attack on... Old Town I think it was, scared off all the prey in this area. I've seen barely any signs of life here today." Replied Ghiir, looking towards the smoke coming over the horizon in the direction of Old Town. "And now, that bomb made prey even more scarce. I think I'm probably going to move on today, see if I can't find a better place to live." He added, shifting his gaze back to Harper. She was pretty, now that he looked at her. He wouldn't deny that he enjoyed the sight.

Harper bit her lip a bit as her nicer nature reared its head. She turned and looked in the direction of Kasce and Ryker, and then sighed. She took her ponytail down, and shook her hair out as she thought. "Well.... Maybe my buddies'll let you travel with us. I don't think Kira and Ryker will care, but Kasce might... I'm not sure." She looked back at Ghiir as she pulled her hair back up into a ponytail. "I'm sure they'd at least let you eat with us. I think I'm in charge of food. I was just gonna go catch some fish. If you want, you can tag along." Harper didn't really know why, but oddly enough, she didn't get a bad vibe from this guy. That was a tad odd considering he had just pounced her.

Ghiir:
"Well, that sounds like an offer I can't refuse." He smiled, sliding his hands into his pockets. "I'm okay with catching fish I guess, but I don't know of a place to get them. Kind of new to this area, since I'm only passing through." He added, looking around. "So, who's in your group?" He asked, liking to know more about them.

Harper shrugged. "There's a river nearby. Follow me." She turned and started walking, with Ghiir walking with her. "There's me, another werewolf girl named Sylvia, a woman named Lyra, a guy named Kasce, another guy named Ryker, and this chick named Kira." She chuckled a bit. "There's quite a few of us..."

Ghiir:
Ghiir nodded, thinking he could get used to traveling with others again. It might be hard for him at first, due to his losses, but in the end Ghiir really wanted to be part of a group again. "Well, I'm fine with a group... In fact, the more the better, really." He smiled, following Harper to the river.

Harper shrugged and removed her shoes once they were at the edge of the water. She was very thankful she had shorts on as she waded into the water. She shifted partially, only enough to lengthen her nails to claws. "Well, I suppose that's a good thing then..." She watched the water closely, and as she noticed something, she grabbed at it claws first. Harper couldn't help but grin as she pulled up a plump looking salmon. "Now we're talking..."
