LUCIEN ------------------------------- Crouched low to the sand, his eyes torn to the sky, his focus on nothing but the moon. A low groan escaped Lucien as he then stood tall, his back began to shift, snap an pop as he then took the muscle shirt off his shoulders. The small flakes of white in his ebony eyes seemed to reflect off the moon as his skin began to turn black and his body mirphed form. Uncovering his now canine face, Lucien let a low growl escape him as the black jeans slightly ripped in the thighs as he stood up tall, his original hieght of 6'5 was now about 6'7. Raising his head to let loose a bone chilling howl, The muscles tensing in his sides as he then let loose a small grunt, slowly brining himself to put his paws in the water, his toes digging into the damp sand. A single, large hand with claws raised up to scratch his bare chest. Lucien sighed softly as his fingers ran over the silver chain that hung around his neck. Lucien had never felt so alone until he had discovered his "gift" so they call it. Lucien believed it to be a curse. Lucien had had all the people at the orphanage and here he had pretty much no one besides the few counsellors that talk to you.

That cheater! She thought racing through the forest. She knew he was going to fly. Oh well, can't say she didn't try. Heck if she had that ability she would've flown too. She looked up. Now where did her little bird friend go? He usually followed her around so he probably wasn't to far away. A whistle and a few clicks announced his arrival. "Wheeew Danger!" he squawked. "Change course! Change course" "Huh?" she said looking at him and making a face. What was he talking about? "Vib I need you to get something." "Change course!" "Change course from what?!" Olivia found out when she suddenly burst into the clearing and ran straight into what felt like a giant furry brick wall. She had been too busy looking at her stupid bird to watch where she was going. Falling backwards on the wet sand she rubbed her head. "Owch! Mansk when did you get sooooooooouu're not Mansk." She said voice becoming as small as she felt. No, this was a wolf, a really really big one. "Impact! Wheeew." Vib clicked and perched on her head. "Uuuhhhh, Hi?" She said under a forced smile trying to appear relaxed. Becoolbecoolbecool.

LUCIEN ---------------------------- The water seemed to wrap itself around his paws as he stood quietly, one hand on his hip while the other hung at his side. Just as he had begun to relax a little something charged almost full force into his large, furry back. A loud growl erupted from inside Lucien's throat and he quickly whirled around, crouching low, one hand in the sand to steady himself and he then let his lips uncurl and his large fang like teeth be hidden once more. Lucien steadied his gaze and let his eyes become soft, the deep pools of black seemed to reach out to her as Lucien recognized who she was. Olivia was a non-social being and prefered to be left on her own and not to many people seemed to try an get to know her. Standing back to his full height he then held out a large hand "Forgive me .. You startled me.. I am Lucien" The large wolf let his tail sway back an forth as he waited for her to either reject or accept his assistance. Glancing at the metal bird, Lucien snorted. He was no danger to anyone.

Olivia hesitated a great deal before warily taking his paw, it dwarfed her hand. And she thought only Mansk could make her feel miniature in size. With Lucien's help she hoisted herself up. Lucien. Hadn't she heard that name before? She was pretty sure that if she had met a giant wolf man she would remember his name. "Olivia." She said trying to formally introduce herself without quivering. It was a little hard since she was still trying to wrap her head around the fact that she just ran into a werewolf. Miles of beach, and she ran into what was probably the only werewolf for miles in either direction. Nice going 'Liv. She couldn't help but notice a glint coming from his neck, that was definitely silver. "So I guess that thing about werewolves and silver isn't true eh?" She spoke awkwardly before regretting it immediately. Stupid, stupid! Why would you say that? Vib noticed the chain too. "Shine!" He crowed before flapping up and perching up on Lucien's shoulder. Beginning to pecking at the chain trying to pick it up. "Vib! Cut that-" "Intelligent!" the mechanical bird squawked at her cutting her off. She planted a palm over her face and growled lowly under her breath.

LUCIEN ---------------------- After what seemed like ages Olivia had finally accepted his asisstance and lifted herself to her feet. A small smile twitched on his face as she made the dig about werwolves an silver "Hah that is complete myth.. I don' t really have anything that weakens me to much besides the sunlight" As the small metal bird perched itself on his shoulder,Lucien glanced at it from the corner of his eye. He couldnt help but laugh when it inturupted Olivia and told her that It was indeed intelligent. With a grin, Lucien put up his hand to try and persuade the bird to go back to Olivia. " No need to worry, The bird is quite the character I must admit" Lucien then turned to take a few small steps into the water and the looked back to Olivia "So why were you in such a rush?"

She was still finding it difficult to relax. Was he smiling or baring his teeth? It was probably the same thing either way you looked at it the only difference was the sound right? Laughing was a good sign. Still, she was waiting for him to crush that bird. A part of her almost wanted him to. "I was racing someone to meet them here." Olivia looked in either direction. Mansk was no where in sight. "It looks like I was a bit off course though." This wouldn't have been a problem if he ran instead of flying. He was probably standing somewhere with his wings flopped on his sides waiting for her. The bird was still pecking at the chain. "Okay, Vib cut-" "Intelligent!" "Pecking at shinny objects around someone's neck is not a matter of intelligence! You're being a bully. If you want something intelligent to do would you please go find Mansk and let him know where I am?" He paused to stare at her unblinkingly. Then with one last crow of intelligent he took off. "Some days I swear." She spoke shaking her head. She looked back up at Lucien and then came to the realization that she was completely alone with him. Not that Vib offered much company. She glanced around the beach again and started to tap at her collar bone nervously. "What are you doing out here alone? I thought being a loner was my job."

LUCIEN --------------------------- The water felt soothing around his legs as he stood in the shallow part of the lake. Silently listening to her story, Lucien nodded and chuckled " Well then you must have really gotten off course" Lucien then watched as Olivia and the bird she called 'vib' get into a slightly heated arguement. As he gave a final crow and took flight he watched it until it was no longer visible. As Olivia tarted going off about the contraption Lucien couldnt help but let a grin play on his face. Now this question tore at his heart strings 'what are you doing out here alone? I thought being a loner was my job' Lucien sighed and glanced up at the moon "Its a full moon.. When the full moon is out I am forced to be this way.. I came out here to be alone until the sun comes up to change me back.. Also being a loner isn't your job... People don't know what they are missing unless they give it a chance.. Not many people seem to try that for you .. Although they dont usually with me either" Lucien slowly made his way back to the sand an gave Olivia a glance before looking toward the forests edge.

Oh, so that thing about werewolves and the moon was true she thought. But who was this guy? Lucien. Again she would probably remember a giant wolf if she met one. And she couldn't put a face to his name but she knew she had definitely heard it before. He sounded so alone it was starting to tear at her a little. She could see why no one would approach a big harry wolf. When she first saw him he was terrifying, he still sort of was, but as a human he couldn't have been so bad. He was probably a big teddy bear. What did she tell herself earlier tonight? There wasn't a better time to make friends then now or something. Maybe she could give this guy a chance. Wait was he going to leave? She saw him looking out into the forest. No no he couldn't leave yet! But what the heck was her game plan? How does one 'make friends?' You're over thinking it Liv she thought to herself. Smiling, she shook her head. "No, I'm alone because I chose to be. I'm not that great and making friends. It's easier to just push everyone away and not have to think about it you know?" She looked out to the water. "So I guess you're right, being a loner isn't my job but I've made it that way. At least you sound like you want friends."

LUCIEN --------------------- A hint of compassion twitched within Luciens eyes, looking down at olivia, Lucien crouched so he wasnt as tall " Friends would be nice but there is also so many problems with friends as well" Lucien perked his ears as the wind picked up, his nostrils flared as he frowned slightly. Something was in the air but it was too faint to be inside the camp grounds. Lucien had never really tried to make friends he had just spent time on his own and conversed with few.Lucien's ears twitched and flickered as he listened quietly although he couldnt detect anything Look .. I try to keep people from seeing me this way .. usually it scares many away, Im surprised you are still standing here Lucien would have to warn one of the counsellors in morning at his small pick up on a strange scent, right now it wasnt close enough to be such a worry.

"Liv, what the hell?" Mansk dragged his wings behind him as he stalked down the beach, leaving lines in the sand with his huge wings. "Do you realize how hard it is to walk with these things? And this, what is this thing? It said something weird it....what the hell is that thing.....?" Mansk had finally actually lifted his head up. "That....that's that's, Liv maaybe you should step back?" He was rubbing his wings against the ground, prepared to take off with Liv if need be. Fighting with wings was difficult, he only had one of his feet tattooed, so he only had one foot of razor sharp talons. "shit....."

Problems? She didn't want to be a problem. What did he mean by that? He seemed distracted. Something was catching his attention but she wasn't sure what it was. It was making her uneasy. His instincts in a wolf form were probably better than hers. "Nah I've seen scarier things than you. I'm a demigod too remember? A werewolf is no problem at all." Not that she was one to talk, she knew nothing about werewolves and was just going off of her first impression. But what could be problematic about having a friend? Wasn't that the exact opposite reason you made friends? She wondered if Manask knew who Lucien was.
Speak of the devil... She was glad to see him but surprised by his reaction. Afraid of Lucien? Really? Then she remembered her first reaction. Probably the only reason she didn't run away instantly was because she was knocked to the ground. She took a few steps forward and stood between the two of them. "No he's cool. It's fine really." She said. Vib glided in and perched on her shoulder. "Intelligent!" He crowed puffing up and standing proudly. "Yes good bird, you found him." She said patting his head.

LUCIEN ------------------------ Surely he'd been surprised at her sudden interest in him although he wasnt some kind of zoo pet. A loud voice seemed to shatter the peace between him an Olivia. Pinning his ears back he raised an eye brow " Well thank you for almost splitting my ear drum .. You know we canines have excellent hearing.. The name is Lucien" The large beast was slightly flattered that even Mansk was uneasy around him. Turning to look at Olivia " So this is the friend you were racing?" As the metal contraption placed itself on her shoulder once more, Lucien couldnt help but get a small chuckle out if it. Glancing back at Mansk Lucien then spoke up " You don't need to look so alarmed" Lucien then crossed his arms an let loose a soft sigh.

Mansk
Mansk smoothed his face, he didn't remember wolf boy, but he spoke, was calm, and seemingly kind. Although he'd no idea about the noise sensitivity, Mansk took it to memory incase things ever got out if hand. Mansk could make a terrible high pitched falcon scream if needed. "My apologies," Mansk had lowered his voice to something he hoped to be more soothing. "We didn't mean to disturb you. Olivia and I were going to explode things though I suspect it will be much too loud for you." Mansk fluffed his feathers, not sure if Liv would still want a ride.

Olivia nodded and thought. He's also the friend who cheated. Look at those wings you're dragging around Mansk. Shame on you! Even when he was told that there was no reason to be afraid she could tell that Mansk was still guarded. I don't get it. What am I missing? Sure she understood that Lucien had the potential to be dangerous but he was civilized. Not just some feral animal. If that was the case she would've been dead already. Was Mansk having trouble seeing that or was there something she didn't know? 'Friends would be nice but there is also so many problems with friends as well.' What did that mean? If she pondered it further she probably could've figured it out, but it would take all night. And she already told herself that she was not going to stress herself out any further. Looking between Mansk and Lucien she was feeling stuck. Now what? Yeah she wanted to have a good night but she didn't want to just leave the guy. Maybe they could do something less loud? Maybe if she waited long enough they could sort it out between them and she could figure out why Lucien was seen as a danger. Beginning to tap at her collar bone again Vib pecked her hand to stop. "Owch! Vib!" She scolded shaking her hand. The bird just stared at her blankly. Maybe trying to tell her something but nothing she understood. "Ugh, you drew blood you brat." She grumbled gripping the small wound tightly.

LUCIEN ------------------------ A short breeze seemed to rustle the trees and Lucien smirked as Mansk lowered his voice. Lucien wasnt one to stay in one spot to long and people usually didnt want him around. Turning to face the forest, Lucien gave Olivia a soft glance " Thats alright I was just leaving anyway, I wouldnt want to be a bother" standing tall, Lucien then started to walk toward the forest. Olivia seemed curious, Lucien could see it bubbling in her eyes. There were many things that the urban werewolf legend had wrong. Lucien lifted his nose to the air an growled lightly, his eyes darting around the area. Werewolves had so many myths about them, NO they werent alergic to silver and they werent savage beasts. However there is a sick twist to these beings. THEY NEED BLOOD. Not all the time but atleast once a week they must consume blood it could be from raw meat or from an animal, Or even a human. These bites will not change you to a wolf but if the wolf takes too much, its gums release a certain chemical that stops them from killing the prey an also killing themselves. Too much blood can kill a wolf. However the chemical that is released can be fatal to humans if they have lost to much blood. Lucien has experienced all of these and surely isnt proud of it.

Mansk -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- He cocked his head sideways to look as Lucien moved towards the trees. He saw the interest in the lupine eyes and Mansk, recognizing the look, predator to predator immediately shook his feathers off his arms, brown gold hawk feathers fluttering around the beach. Still with feathers poking slightly from his arms he came up close behind Olivia and pressed the small cut she had in a piece of ratty tissue. There are people in this world worth protecting at great personal loss. Liv was intelligent and attractive to Mansk. "This isn't because I don't trust you," Mansk said in a firm calm voice, he'd come to stand in front of Olivia "it's just a precautionary measure, one hunter to another." He nodded politely and leveled his eyes with Lucien.

Okay, something was going on here. She could feel the tension building in the air. Vib what did you do? Olivia thought grudgingly. The bird turned his head to watch Lucien in silence. She looked at Mansk then Lucien and then Mansk again. The last thing she wanted was to cause a fight. That would tip the scale from bad day to flat out terrible. She decided that was not an option. Tentatively, she reached out and touched the back of Mansk's arm. Some feathers fell away at her finger tips. "Maybe we should go." She spoke quietly trying not to bring attention to herself. Now she understood. Maybe that little pile of scrap metal was more 'intelligent' than she gave him credit for. That is if he wasn't trying to put them in danger to show what the danger was.

LUCIEN ------------------------- Lucien was no monster an he sure as hell wasnt meaning to seem as if he'd been without blood but there was something out there. Lucien growled lightly an turned to Mansk " If you really want to leave then go .. HOWEVER I have afew tips.. one... dont fly an two.. dont go in this direction" Lucien raised a hand to point ahead of him, Into the trees. Lucien wasnt afraid but he knew something was very wrong. Pinning his ears, Lucien crouched to the ground one hand on the shore to keep hinself steady and one large hand out at the ready. This scent wasnt as far as Lucien had thought. Sure he wasnt part of the night patrol but he couldnt just stand there while he knew something was wrong.

Her shoulders relaxed when she realized that Lucien wasn't the danger here. It was whatever he was paying attention to. What was it that Lucien was catching that they weren't? Olivia went back a few moments ago when he appeared to be distracted. Was this the same thing as before? She looked down studied her finger now wrapped in a bit of cloth. Nothing bad had happened yet, did she really want to push her luck today? A feather blown by the breeze coming in got caught on her foot. Mansk always had her back but she didn't want to become more of a burden than she already felt. Don't fly and don't go this way. Well, she never was one for listening. Without a word she strode toward the forest, exactly where Lucien had pointed.

"Liv, seriously?" Mansk was startled as Olivia walked away in the exact direction not to go. "Come on Liv, the man just said not to go that way. He smelled something, I smell it too. Not nearly as well though, just a hint," but Olivia was walking swiftly away. Mansk groaned and strode quickly to keep up. "I am not a nocturnal bird," he muttered in annoyance as he caught up to Olivia in a few long legged strides. "Come on, it's probably nothing, lets go back to the beach, we can explode shit now." Great, stomping though the forest in the dark in the early hours of the morning, without a proper weapon and with his flight time still on cool down.
