Catori stretched out, nearly blocking off the hallway from where she lay. It would be hard to step over her without stepping on her.
Aurora shook her head to Ferra's question, "No, you've done enough." Whether this was spoken out of gratitude or irritation was unclear. Perhaps a bit of both.

Despite the circumstances, Ferra grinned at Kiba's remark. She turned away from Aurora, and headed out into the hall. Without answering his question, she patted his head. "Come on, let's leave Aurora be for a little while."

Damocles then rolled over from his back and onto art of Catoris paws.

(Awesome then!)
Chase looked up at her when she spoke his name and frowned as she winced. He placed a hand carefully on her arm closest to him, her right one, and nodded slowly. "Yes it's me. Just relax, your safe in the infirmary." He said softly with a sigh. Why did she have to try and help? They were obviously much bigger then her in the eagle form, and stronger. Now she had a broken wing because of it.

Kiba looked up at Ferra and with a whine said," But I want to see Aurora and make sure she is okay." Kiba's tail then got tucked back between his legs.

Catori pulled her paws out from underneath Damocles and rolled over onto her back.
After locking the door, Aurora undressed and tended to the most severe of her injuries. She had a few scratches along her back, some small ones across her nose and cheek, and another along her collarbone. The worst scratches were across her stomach. Those were deep and would more than likely leave scars. With another breathy sigh, Aurora cleaned and bandaged what she could reach and retrieved a clean gown from her closet. Once dressed again, she lay across her bed and pulled the cover around her shoulders, What a night...
Sometime during the night, Marcy had gotten up for a midnight snack. She had a strong sense of smell, and almost immediately noticed the acrid scent of blood as she stepped into the hallway. Panic momentarily gripped her. It was obvious that someone was hurt, but who did it, and were they still lurking? Marcy glanced around the corridor nervously.

Damocles whined when she pulled her paws away from him and inched closer to her until he was right next to her.

"Wh... what happened?" Delilah murmured. She couldn't move her arm--no, her wing, and the pain was almost too much. She squinted up at him.
"She's fine, no worries," Ferra patted the chimera's head and started downstairs. She needed to find this new resident and ensure he wasn't a problem before he was welcomed in.
An unseen force suddenly gripped Marcy from behind, and let out a ghostly shriek.
Alfonse sat on one of the benches in the great hall, alongside Peter. He had been watching the doors with contempt, and hoping that Pandora kept her distance. He wasn't happy about having his suit torn to shreds, and certainly wasn't happy that Aurora had gotten caught in the crossfire. He could only hope, now, that she would refuse to let the child stay any longer.
Ferra managed to step over Catori, nearly losing her balance again, and headed downstairs. She emerged in the great hall, and spotted Alfonse and Peter.

(Marcy is free, Cloud)
Catori snuggled up closer to him in her sleep.
When the first rays of dawn broke through the clouds, the demonic panther suddenly flipped over onto the ground and convulsed. Its body seemed to turn into writhing shadows, which then contracted and condensed into a smaller shape. Once the darkness cleared, Pandora lay unconscious, like an innocent little girl that had fallen asleep after playing too long outside.
Marcy's eyes went wide and she shuddered violently from the scare. Her mouth opened in a silent scream, but the only sound was a voiceless gasp.
Peter had been uncharacteristically quiet, but suddenly sat upright when he spotted Ferra, "Is Aurora alright?" He suddenly blurted, nearly dropping Aura out of his lap. The pup had finally began to calm down, and was nearly asleep until Peter moved.

Kiba sighed and said," Fine I will go with you but I want to see her later Fera." As Kiba passed Damocles and Catori Kiba smiled and then intentionally stepped on Damocles's tail. Damocles then shot up and yipped in fear and looked around for who stepped on his tail. Damocles would have seen Kiba if he hadn't had ran and gotten right next to Ferra.

Chase looked at her sympathetically and took a deep breath. "You tried to help, and broke your wing. It didn't change back when you did." He explained to her, looking at her eyes. They looked foggy with the pain from her injuries. It seemed bad things always happen to good people.

Delilah stared at the broken wing. Her eyes began to water, and she quickly blinked the tears away. "Thank you for setting it..." On top of the pain she felt from her injuries, she was also exceedingly embarrassed at the thought of Chase having seen her. "I guess I'll have to wait for it to heal before I can change it back. I'll be useless the next few weeks..." She lowered her gaze.
"Keep your voice down," Ferra approached the two, and lifted Aura from Peter's lap. "She's fine. As for anyone who asks and didn't directly see the altercation, that wasn't Aurora. Aurora tried to help the werewolf, and got hurt in the process. It's evidently a really sensitive thing for her, judging by the way I could tell she was feeling, so don't go blurting out to everyone who shows up that our leader is a werewolf." She sat down on the floor in front of the boys, and stroked Kiba's coat. "That goes for you too."
Alfonse stroked his chin. This whole situation struck him as odd, and completely unrealistic.
Esra, after having witnessed the panther's transformation, scowled, almost in disbelief. He turned towards the forest, having done his part, and resolved to leave.
(If anyone wants to stop him, feel free.)

Misty burst into a fit of maniacal laughter. "I got you so good you couldn't even scream!" She would have been rolling on the floor laughing, if it weren't for the fact that she would simply phase through it. She began to drip tears on the floor; the ghost was simply hysterical with laughter.

Kiba walked up next to Fera and asked," I don't understand what the big deal is from what I could tell she was like me and Damocles."

"There's more to it than that." Ferra turned her gaze towards the chimera. "Werewolves aren't liked by a lot of people. Elves, especially. And from what I can tell, if Aurora is anything like me, she's also half elf." She removed a lock of hair to showcase her mildly pointed ear. "It's likely that's why she's been living here on her own all this time. The elves didn't want her because she was half werewolf, and the wolves didn't want her because she was half elf."

Peter's face flushed with chagrin, "Gee... I wish someone would have told me that a lot sooner." He muttered, hanging his head with guilt. While it was true that he sometimes annoyed Aurora, he did truly care about her. She was almost like an older sister.
Aura appeared tired and listless as she settled into Ferra's lap, blinking sleepily.
Marcy stared in utter disbelief at Misty, jaw slack as the ghost giggled hysterically. Times like this made her really wish she could talk. Boy, would some people get an earful.

Kiba looked at the ground and said," Well and here I thought my life had been hard." Kiba then looked up and turned his attention to where Aurora's room was and said," I am going to go talk to her." Kiba then turned towards where he was looking and readied to run up to Auroras room.

Damocles looked at Catori and with a very saddened voice asked," Big sis Catori someone stepped on my tail and it didn't fell good."

Aurora's door was locked.
(forgot about Catori) Catori barely moved when Damocles' tail had been stepped on, and upon hearing his complaint, the wolf groaned sleepily but didn't say much of anything. She figured that was the price paid when napping out in the open.

"Oh, no you don't." Ferra grabbed Kiba's back leg before he could run too far and pulled him back. "Leave her alone right now. She needs to rest. She'll come around when she's ready, don't worry." She turned back to Peter, one arm around Kiba so as to prevent him from making another break for it. "It's not your fault you didn't know. It's just... elves sort of see werewolves as animals. For one to actually fall in love with a werewolf is borderline bestiality in their book. Of course, they're just as much human as anyone else, but the elves have a history of despising half-bloods." Her stomach twisted at the term. She herself was a half-blood, and she wondered now, just as she had a thousand times before, if that meant her father would not accept her.
Alfonse frowned. Had he just heard Ferra say something about elves? Well, no matter. He was beginning to grow used to the whole ordeal. Still, elves... he shook his head roughly.

"Can't have scared you that badly!" Misty folded her arms across her chest in a rather indignant manner. "Say something! Are you broken?!"

Damocles looked down at Catori and then just sighed and laid back down next to her. This time however he tucked his tail in between him and Catori.
Kiba looked at Fera and said," But, but, but." Kiba then sighed and sat down next to Fera and said," Fine but can you let me go I am not a puppy who will run off as soon as he see a chance." He said this but that was exactly what he planed on doing.

Peter shook his head, "Was Pandora, er, I mean, the panther still out there earlier?" He hoped the transformation was temporary, and they wouldn't have to hole up in the castle for a while.
Marcy glowered angrily at the ghost, but knew striking her would do not good. She didn't know about the castle's limitations, but she did see the absurdity of trying to punch a ghost.
Catori rolled over until she was on her side, with her back up against Damocles. It was a cool, even inside the castle, and she appreciated the warmth.

Ferra, sensing some mischief in Kiba's tone, kept her arm wrapped tightly around his shoulder. "Can't let you go right now." She turned to Peter, who seemed to be overridden with guilt. "Yes, I believe so. Call her by her name, the little brat. What'd you do to set her off, Alfonae?"
Alfonse raised his head sleepily. "She kicked Peter, and I happened to lose my temper."

Misty floated around the silent girl once, twice, three times, before coming to a stop. "Can't you speak at all?"

Damocles smiled and then rubbed up next to Catori and then feel into a deep sleep.
Kiba sighed and said," Oh come on Ferra I am not a little puppy." KIba may not have noticed but he was sounding a lot like a puppy at the moment.
