"Yes, I mean it" Jay says, looking into Xander's eyes "I'm not going to betray you"

Xander pulls Jay to him and kisses her softly on the lips.
"That's all I needed to hear." He cries softly.

Jay kisses Xander and hugs him tightly "I love you"

Xander cries softly into Jay's shoulder and hugs her close.
"I love you too. So much that if you left me I would probably die of heartbreak." He sniffs.

"Well, I'm not leaving you. So don't go dying on me" Jay says as she hugs Xander

Aldrich entered, "Are you two done?" he asked.

Xander laughs quietly.
"I won't." He looks at Aldrich and flops on his back on his bed, fatigued from fever. "I think we are. You know, it's quite rude to eavesdrop."

Jay looks to Aldrich "Yes, it is very rude." Jay says as she stands up. "Hey Xander, I'm going to go return Kadaj's jacket then go for a walk. I'll be back soon. You just rest up" Jay says with a smile as she exits the room

Xander struggles to his feet and runs after Jay, collapsing at one point from exhaustion.
"I'm...coming...with." He pants. "The last time you left me you got hit by a sniper."

"I'm sorry...I'll leave now." he said, closing the door.

Jay picks Xander up and walks back to his room. She sets him down on his bed "I'll be fine. You need rest. At worst I'll be attacked by an enemy clan." Jay says as she walks out the door.

"Jay please. Don't. I can see the clan mark on your neck. You're in danger and I don't want you to go alone." Xander pleads.

"You should listen to Xander, Jay. He's right. Astrian was ambushed as soon as he stepped outside.*cough*" Kadaj appears in the doorway, covering his mouth with his elbow as he's racked with a coughing bout.

Jay looks at both guys. "I'll be fine. I'll howl if I need help, but I got it. I'm not that weak" Jay says. She quickly walks out of the home before anyone is able to stop her. She morphs into wolf form and runs in the direction of the Plains.

Kadaj sits beside Xander as Jay runs off.
"She's stubborn. You got a lot to deal with."

"That's great to know." Xander snaps, still upset with Kadaj.

"Hey, no harsh feelings. I'm not going to touch her. She's yours. I liked her a long time ago. She's meant for you, sure of it." Kadaj says, coughing.

"Really? That means a lot." Xander says and Kadaj smiles, slapping Xander on the back.

A group of muscular wolves hide in the bushes of the Plains. They had been in wait for any of the wolves from Kadaj's clan, and spot the mark on Jay's ear. Without warning, they attack, circling and trapping Jay in.

"Hmm. Why is it, that whenever I go out, the worst case scenarios seem to happen" Jay remarks with a chuckle. She begins to move towards one wolf in front of her with her muzzle open, but quickly turns to her right and bites one wolf's neck.

The wolves snarl, these ones being much fiercer than the first party, as well as much stronger. They pin Jay down in quick seconds.

"Um, Mr. Wolf-that's-on-top-of-me. Can I just ask a quick question before you kill me? ... Why do you want to kill me?" Jay asks nonchalantly

"Because your clan executed mine a long time ago. You wouldn't remember. You and Kadaj were little newborns then. Your clan took rule over all the other clans and showed no mercy." Snarled a dark charcoal grey wolf with a long scar over a clouded left eye as it pads from the bushes.

"Uh huh.. yes I see... Um, follow-up question, If my clan was so bad and mean, then what the heck are you accomplishing by being just like them?" Jay asks

OOC: Jay just likes being a smart-alac doesn't she? Gonna get herself killed REAL quickly.

"Being like them? Ha! As if. We're eliminating your clan so as to free the other clans so we can live in peace. We do not rule mercilessly as your clan did. In fact, we don't rule at all." The wolf barks.

OOC: Yeah. She's great at that

"Yeah.. kay. Got it. I'm done asking questions. Just one last thing..." Jay finishes her statement by howling loudly.

Both boys hear the howl and look at each other.
"Jay." They gasp and morph forms in seconds, taking off towards the Plains.

"She's calling for others! Just knock her up a little until they arrive. I can smell illness from one." The wolf snarls.

The wolves obey, leaving deep gashes across Jay's flanks and muzzle.

"Idiots" Jay mumbles as she drops her head to the ground and closes her eyes

As the two reach the Plains, the charcoal wolf ambushes Xander and digs his claws into Xander's shoulder, causing Xander to cry out in pain.

"Let him*cough*go. It's me*cough*you want to kill." Kadaj barks.

Jay's head pops up at the sound of Xander. She fights the pain in her legs and runs to him.

The charcoal wolf snarls, tossing Xander aside. Turning to Kadaj, he laughs.
"Look at you! You've become sick! This will be an easy fight."

OOC: Jay gets a sister because why the heck not?

"Keep your paws off of my family." A voice snarls. It echoes around the trees, making it impossible to determine the source.

OOC: Fabulous!

Jay cocks her head quickly to the trees

OOC:

The charcoal wolf growls. "Show yourself, Kaori."

"Only since you insisted."

The world goes black and as the light returns, the wolves around are knocked out. In place is a dark furred wolf inked with the clan mark.

OOC: Jay's sister's wolf form:

"Who is she?" Jay whispers to Kadaj

Kaori turns and half smiles at Jay.
"You miss me, sis?"

"That's your sister." Kadaj says.

"Well. I didn't even know I had a sister" Jay says with a small laugh

"It's rough when you get taken away from your clan." Kadaj says.

The charcoal wolf snarls at Kaori in anger.
"How are you still alive?! We killed you years ago!"

Kaori swishes her tail smoothly.
"Did you really?"

"I'll say." Jay said as she let out a sigh

Aldrich got outside quickly, "What's going on?!" he asked before he saw thw wolves and got out his cane.

Kaori lashes her tail as the charcoal wolf retreats, defeated.

Kadaj looks at Aldrich.
"Don't hurt*cough*anyone. We're already injured*cough*enough." He looks towards Xander with wide eyes.

Xander weakly opens his eyes.
"Thanks, Kadaj." He groans. "For saving me."

"Alright then." he replied putting his cane back.

Jay plops her head down on the ground, tiredly.

Kaori runs to her sister and nudges her gently with her muzzle.
"Hey, Katherine. You okay?" She says.

"Her name is Jay." Xander growls weakly.

"I'll be fine.. And I go by Jay now" Jay says to Kaori

"So what now? Where do we go from here?" he asked.

Kaori shakes her head and laughs.
"That's right, you got taken from me. I should expect that you changed your name." She smiles and nuzzles Jay with her muzzle. "Still, missed you a lot, little sis."

"Missed you too, sister I didn't know I had. Hey, would you guys want to meet the human that took me? He's back at Ada's"

Aldrich walked back to Ada's domain, "I'll see you there then." he said.

Kaori nodded.
"I need to make sure I won't have any issues with him. I will have a chat with your boyfriend too." She says, nodding to Xander. She morphs to her human form and holds out her hand to help Jay up.

OOC: Kaori happens to look not at all like Jay

As Aldrich headed back, he pulled his coat above his cheeks to hide his blush from Kaori.

OOC: They only look alike in wolf form

"Jake's not a bad person, he's just really scared of everything." Jay says morphing to human form and taking Kaori's hand

OOC: Yep

Kaori laughs as she helps Jay up.
"Then it's a good thing I'm tagging along."

Kadaj helps Xander up and looks at Jay.
"You know, it's not fair to have the sick and injured carry each other." He jokes painfully.

"...H-hey Kaori..." Aldrich said slowly, "d-do you know where any machine parts would be h-here?"

"I'm coming. I'm not that well either, but I'll help." Jay said walking to Xander and picking him up. "Hey, Kaori, can you get Kadaj?"

"You're stuttering. Spit it out." Kaori snaps, hands on her hips.

Edit: CL you ninja once again.

Kaori turns to Jay.
"Yeah, I'll get him."

"Thanks Jay." Xander says.
