The Summoning Grounds

[Astra]

"Its breakfast. I'm a cult member, though from being forced to be one" Jason said

[Astra]

Richard led Nakato away from the cult and into the forest nearby

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"Are you going to murder me and rape me? Because if you do please just kill me quickly first," Nakato said coming to a complete stop and looking at her guide with slit eyes her ears standing up completely straight and her tails lashing. "At least just off me out of pity please," she sighed quietly hoping not to go back to that cult ever again.

[Ilsa]

"Is that it? Everyone they have is forced to join them? How?" she asked, dividing the breakfast in half, albeit hesitantly. "You only get one breakfast, don't you?" she asked. "You can't feed me forever."

[Astra]

Richard lay down and whined. He was starting to hurt a bit

[Astra]

"I don't need to eat food, just feed which I'm waiting for Richard for" Jason said. "not everyone here is forced"

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

Nakato raised and eye stepping forward cautiously. "Are you dying? I'm sorry but I can't help you. I do Alchemy, illusions, and I'm a flying freak of a cast out so if you need something that's my stupid little skill set that got me taken in by Leo and kept me here against my will," she huffed letting out all her spite and anger.

[Astra]

Richard wanted to talk to her, though he couldn't yet. He lay there in pain as the transformation from wolf to human happened.

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

Nakato looked at him with confusion trying to gauge how she should respond. Was she going to have to clean up a wolf corpse? This was not in her job description. Then again everything Leo made her do wasn't in her job description.

[Ilsa]

She shook her head. "Then I'll take what I need. If I eat too much, I'm likely to waste it in vomit. They don't feed their captives what they need to stay strong."

[Astra]

from the looks, the transformation was painful. his bones were literally reshaping them selves. Once it was done he lay there panting for a moment, glad to be in human form again.

[Astra]

"Eat whatever you'd like." Jason said. He frowned slightly. He needed to feed soon to control his bloodlust

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

Nakato cringed swearing she could hear bones not just reshapeing but cracking and the noise made her sick. "Are you okay?" She asked honestly a little confused. Nakato had never met a werewolf. Did she even know what a werewolf was? God, the only other creatures she met were on her home world and what Leo introduced her to. Which was to say Kitsune, then nothing but animals for a very long time, and them Kree. She didn't really know what everything else was.

[Ilsa]

She didn't know what he was because Ilsa couldn't find his character sheet. She ate what she could, pacing herself so she wouldn't be nauseous, and stopped halfway through the plate. "Thank you.... Jason, was it? I'm sorry, I'm not at my best right now."

[Astra]

Richard gave her two thumbs up. "just going through the nightly routine" he said sitting up after a momemt

[Astra]

"yeah, its Jason, or Jay" Jason said. He rubbed his jaw a bit. a bad habitat that he developed partially because he was a moon dancer aka vampire

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"And... uh... what are you and why is this normal for whatever you are?" Nakato said completely clueless as to what she had just been dragged into. She slowly backed away slightly her ears flattening against her head.

[Ilsa]

She nodded, stifling a yawn. "Breakfast, you say? Did we plan that long or sleep that long? I thought it was just a moment's rest I'd gotten."

[Astra]

"I'm a werewolf. my kind usually lives in the Zuni region." Richard said. "but enough about me. I know you want away from the cult"

[Astra]

"I eat breakfast, when I eat, really early" Jason shrugged slightly

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"Oh? And what of it?" She asked becoming instantly cautious. Leo had been known now and again to test the members of the cult like this to see if they were truly loyal. She would have to make sure this wasn't any kind of test. If it was and she slipped up she would have to go to extremes to make sure she didn't get ratted out. She could feel fear for her life like icey blood in her veins.

[Astra]

"My brother is in a similar situation as you when it comes to being forced to be part of the cult. You and I are going to set up everything outside of the cult for when everything goes down. please, help us" Richard said

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"Why do I trust you? And why involve me?" She asked her eyes narrowed slits. She moved carefully lowering her body slightly in a fox like way. She moved in a defensive way ready to protect herself.

[Astra]

"Because in a sense we're the same, and just want to be free... please...." Richard said

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"How do I know you aren't tricking me?" She asked looking him right in the eyes and trying to decide what to do. "Besides, what's actually in it for me? Leo will find me no matter where I go. I don't know how but he will he always does. Not to mention where would I even go? Its not like I can go back to the Kitsune..." She said glancing off to the side.

[Ilsa]

"Then," she said, "We should rest until high noon, then move in. Do you think you can get me one of their uniforms by then? I could do it then, get in and try to free them."

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

.

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

((HELLO!!!))

[Astra]

"I could protect you in the Zuni region. No one goes there anyways" Richard said

Jason nodded

[Ilsa]

She sighed. "Thank you. You should rest as well. They may go on high alert when they find I've escaped."

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

Nakato opened her mouth and paused for a moment. "Are you sure?" She asked narrowing her eyes fearfully.

[Astra]

"I'll be fine" Jason said

"I'm positive" Richard said

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"Fine. What do you want me to do?" She said sighing. Oh was Nakato ever facing down her death with this decision.

[Astra]

"Follow me" Richard siad

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"Okay..." Nakato said once again following along on what seemed to be a crazy goose chase.

[Ilsa]

She reclined on the stone again. "Wake me when it's time, please," she said, "I could do this alone. I don't want you in trouble."

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

?

[Astra]

"Don't worry about it" Jason said

Richard walked for a while before stopping. "We need to mark this tree" He said pointing to a tree

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"Alright. How?" Nakato asked tilting her head to the side.

[Astra]

"Anything that is subtle but notacible if you are looking for it" Richard said

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

Nakato knelled down pulling out her chalk. She made a small white symbol at the base of the tree. "There," she said.

[Ilsa]

She nodded and curled up to sleep again. It was almost time to stage their coup!

[Astra]

"Alright" Richard said walking to another tree.

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

"What exactly are we doing?" Nakato asked confused as to what in the heck was even going on.

[Astra]

"We're marking a path for the other's" Richard said pointing t another tree

[Night ~People Sometimes Scare Me~]

Nakato sighed knelling down again to put another similar mark on the tree.

[Astra]

"Thank you for helping" RIchard said as they moved to the next spot
