Lairya sheathed her sword and looked up to the fox demon and smiled a short thankyou. she walked over to an unoccupied corner and sat down drawing the tatters of her cloak around her.She kept her eyes on Bycema if anyone decided her fate it would be her.

"Keep her under control and make sure she stay out of my way. I don't need anything else to worry about." Bycema said with the same icy tone, basically ignoring all that the panther demon said before.
Akil look at the panther demon then transformed back to his cat form and jump back up on the sill and return to looking out the window. Disappointed that he's not allowed to kill her, though he did not show it.
Akila turn her head some and look at the ground when Bycema said '...more things to worry about...' She knows that Bycema is helping her and her friend and there doesn't seem like she could help. Uselessness is all that she is feeling, she wasn't able to help Edan or Akil or Bycema and who knows where Kasi is, she could be dead...

Lairya lets her breath out in quasirelief.She could stay! She closed her eyes letting herself drift to sleep but her instincts were still humming from everything. she let her memories drift back of her as a cub caught in a hhuman trap, as her shifting form for the first time and being kicked out of the village that had kept her as a pet, As learning how to hunt after her parents both the demon and human ones died, as being hunted down by the kids of the same village that had adopted her, the same ones who she had tumbled with in the grass before she shifted to human form, by being called a freak and abomination by the girl who had treated hr wounds from the trap, the girl who had become her closest human friend again before she could shift froms. Tears glistened in her eyes but she just forced herself to sleep.

The fox demon sat back down, though this time keeping his eyes on Lairya. He knew how it felt to be alone. He was an orphan, abandoned by whatever parents he had had. Bycema, the one who found him, was like his mother. The pack was his family. Pete was, in his eyes, a father figure. Maybe I can teach her something about weilding the sword...I may not know anything about it, but I should be able to help somewhat... He thought to himself.

The puppy wolf Edan look up at the newcomer, though usually joyful at meeting new people, he just sat there in Akila's lap and whined softly. Upon hearing the whine, Akila lightly pet him on the head wishing that he could make the pain for losing his mother, again, go away.

Lairya moaned in the throes of a nightmare, the metal was cutting her foot, the claw that had snapped the bone in two after she had tried to go after a piece of meat. It was going to cut her foot in two at this rate but she had to get away, humans were coming, she could smell them,they were coming to hunt her, even the little grl who had at one time treated her wounds. The pain was unbearable, they were crashing through the bush, anymoment and they would see her would kill her for being a hanyou, she had to protect herself.. Lairya surged to her feet her eyes glowing sword in hand, she was gasping and in a cold sweat... she looked around, "a dream.." She slid her sword back into the sheath and fell back against the wall. trying to force herslef back to sleep.

The demon walked over to Lairya. "You okay?" He asked, voice not cold, but not completely kind either.

Bycema glanced with annoyence over at her. "Maybe you should leave the sword at the door until you leave," Bycema told her making it clear that she doesn't and probably will not trust her.
Bevin look over at her, unsure, like always, on what to think. He could tell that the others don't really like her but why he can't really understand. Though she did spook him when she just entered the room.
Akila stood but, now holding the wolf puppy that was curl up in her lap. "Can someone watch Edan? I'm going to try to find Kasi," she said, her tone was sadly though she try to hide her expression. Edan cling tightly on to Akila, not wanting to have her leave.
Akil jumped down from the window sill and transform again. "If you are going to go look for her then I'll do with you. So would Bevin. Edan would be safe him, especial when Pete comes back," Akil told Akila, though expression was basically blank, his tone was full of stubborness

Lairya opened her eyes, she looked up at the fox demon, tears still making her eyes glassy, "the girl who treated my wounds, back before I knew I was part human,kept me as a pet, before then I thought I was a panther, not panther demon just panther, My mom had gotten killed shortly after having me, and I never had known my dad at first. A Panther femme adopted and raised me, fore I had gotten trapped, I played fetch wrestled with the kids of the village, obeyed certain commands, stuff like that, then one day I found I could transform into a human. I thought she would be the best to understand,ya know? so I transformed back to my panther shape and showed her. Next thing I know everyone is chasing me, so I run away. Couple of years later I go back thinking maybe it was safe and she saw and reconised me. She called me an abomination a freak of nature and tried to shoot me, she was the closest thing to a friend I had ever had and she tried to kill me."Lairya whispered, she stood up and set her sword by the door then sat back down.she wrapped her arms around her knees, she was too wound up now to go back to sleep.

"That's horrible..." The demon said, thinking back to his own past. He never knew his mother or father, didn't know if they were alive or not. The only family he knew was Bycema and the rest of Pete's pack. They'd raised him. "...That village must not know much about what's happening in the world. It has to be isolated...Killing anything is considered murder. Demon hunters have always been killers, but now they are serial killers. What they do is now illegal." He explained. The world had become a much safer place for demons, though most demon hunters still went on with their business, only hunting the demons that were never in many very public places, usually hunting them at night in dark forests... "By the way...My name's Oroku." He said.

The albino panther transforms into a male panther demon. His attention is now split between Akila leaving and Oroku and that panther demon. By the look on his face you can tell that he is confuse with what's going on.
"You sure you want to leave?" Bycema asked Akila, not paying attention to Oroku or the panther's demon's short conversation. Unlike when she spoke to the panther demon, she's not using an icy tone though her tone was annoyed.
Akila nodded and hand Akil the wolf puppy, forcing him to let go. "I'll go by myself, they'll be looking for you Akil. You need to lay low." The wolf puppy let out a lot of whins, wanting to be with Akila.

"I never knew that, the village I was kept as a pet is 4 days hard run north from here kinda inbetween two mountains. I guess they are kinda cut off from everyone else.they still think demons, hanyou's, and stuff like that are evil and they still kill them.My name is Lairya. I was kept as a sort of novelty I guess cause I was young enough to be trained and all. For a hunting cat I guess." Lairya hddles deeper in her cloak."So when I showed Eavy that I could be human like her I thought she would be happy, instead she was just scared, she ran to her father and he went and tried to kill me but I got away. For a long while after that I though all humans were like that, but I also liked the way that with a house, you didn't get wet when it rained. but that,"she nodded toward her blade,"is kinda hard to cut wood with, so I just tried to find an abandoned house to curl up in for the night, after three days of this weather, this is heaven." Lairya looked up at Oroku not quite sure what his deal was, but not stupid enough to ask.

"You're just lucky this house you found wasn't the home of one of those few left demon hunters..." He mumbled, the tone in his voice still a little icy. He walked over to Akil, looking at the wolf pup. "What's wrong with him anyway?" His voice seemed a bit kinder to Akil, mostly because Bycema trusted him more than the panther hanyou, not because he did.

Akil look at Oroku and for the first time his expression wasn't completely blank, his expression was full of saddness. "His father killed his mother...and from what I learned also his brothers and sisters but..." There was a slight eagerness in his eyes that spark up when he said but, but it went away as soon as it appeared. "Akila I can help," Akil said, turning his attention back to Akila, his expression blank again.
"No...stay here and watch over Edan. Bycema, I'll be back later," Akila said as she left the room, pulling her cloak close to her.
"Don't get killed or hurt." Bycema said after Akila as she watch her leaving the house.

"your right, of course I was just willing to be able to get out of the rain today, panther claws are not the best for digging burrows."Lairya eye's the pup, thinking that the pup was out right adorable.
