Classes had ended for the day a few minutes ago. Once out of sight, he used a Dark portal (a new trick he learned that was like teleporting) to make it to his camp in the woods. He has no place b/c the apartment he was staying at got bombed while he was away, so he just lives in the woods. He looks around and sees someone has been here. He inspects the tracks.
"Saber-tooth tracks," he says. "Looks like Roxanne found my camp. At least it wasn't trashed."

Roxanne sighed.
Ryuuk had brought her here a while ago to rest, and she had been resting near a stream. She heard a voice and sat up from her position of leaning against Ryuuk's side where he lay laying down, head on his paws as he slept. she was a short distance away from the campsite.

Locnil saw Roxanne sit up a little ways off. At first he was surprised, but he mellowed quickly.
"Didn't expect you to find my camp," he says. "Regardless, you are welcome here. Catch."
He tosses her a Mountain Dew (he loves it).

Roxanne catches the pop and smiles at him. "Ryuuk found it this morning and he decided to bring me up over here I'm guessing." she said and opened the pop. "Thanks," she called over her shoulder to Locnil before pouring a bit in her hands. The tiger prred and lapped it up gingerly.

"Not at all," he says.
He goes in his tent. Then a dark cloud billows out and covers the tent. The Dark feeling from before is back, but with it this time, is a feeling of calm, like someone finding their center.

Roxas feels the darkness and sighed. "Who is he," she wondered quietly before Ryuuk nudged her for more of the drink. She smiled and obliged, not minding one bit. She heard a bark on the astral plane and barked back on their own, knowing the bark's owner could have heard.

Locnil's voice comes from the cloud.
"Sorry to restrict you, but could you tone it down a bit?" he asks. "It's hard to concentrate."
While it seems he was addressing Roxanne, he was actually addressing both her and the spirit who barked.

Roxanne nodded, and the wolf on the higher plane growled before Roxanne allowed her spirit other, Dire Wolf, to come upon. Dire was just that: a large, Dire Wolf of massive proportions. She snarled and the wolf ran off. Dire nodded and sat down near Roxanne before fading away, returning to her place.

The cloud dissipates, and Locnil rushes out just before Dire Wolf vanishes.
A familiar, he thinks. And I thought I'd seen it all. This girl is special, all right.

Roxanne sees him rush out. "Something the Matter?" he asked, hearing a hissing noise from Dire. Calm yourself! He's only human! she thought to the wolf, who snarled and snorted.

Locnil snorts regretfully at being called a human. Even he had to admit he was no longer human.
"Sorry, but I'm not as human as I used to be," he says.
It's obvious he was addressing Roxanne, but she had not said anything of the sort.

Roxanne looks at him, confusion and surprise in her eyes. She feels a shift in her and shut her eyes, allowing her to see the stone before her again. This stone had inscriptions of an old language, and each hole on the old tablet was a vial of blood. When she put her fingers to the end of the vial, an animal's head would show up in a color that represented its power and element. She saw the vials of blood of Hebra (Horse and Zebra offspring) and a bit of cheetah was out. She graced her hand against wolf and smiled as she took notice to the color: gold. She pulled it out a bit more, as all were unable to be brought out of the stone, but if one pulled enough, blood would drip more and more, reflecting into her personality. She felt a white light, then it was gone as she opened her eyes, Ryuuk was now yawning.

Locnil's head throbs, and his eyes close from the pain. He sees the same vision Roxanne does, and from the side, he ses her pulling on the wolf symbol. Then the pain in his head is gone and he opens his eyes. Ryuuk yawns.
"What the hell was that?" he asks.

Roxas stands and her knees pop. "Eh, what?" she asked. "Never see a tiger Yawn?" she tried to play it off, as most would never have seen at all. She noticed he seemed to act a bit different and nodded. "You saw the Tablet?" she asked. Ryuuk gave her a classic What the hell!? look.

Locnil nodded. His head throbbed like crazy.
"I knew I shouldn't have flaunted the Dark power," he says to himself. "As I guessed, I now have a migraine. Worse of all I'm seeing into other people's heads."

"Never is wise to use your power too much," she replied. One could feel heartbreak from her now, as her mind slipped to her ex. Ryuuk stayed where he was.

Locnil feels it.
"What happened between you and him?" he asks.

Roxanne looks at him. "He left, cheated on me, and only lusted after me. Not that much of a crime," she said with a sight pained tone. She petted Ryuuk absently.

Locnil nodded. He knew that feeling. Too many friends pawning after him with relationship problems. That one girl he knew...
He shakes his head. No, she's dead. Killed by those damn zealots, thinking they're doing a service to the Sovereign. What fools...

Roxas looked at Ryuuk and felt a shock of fire-searing pain before she breathed out a bit of a growl.
