*Fast forward a couple of hours into the future! All the trick or treaters have been safely tucked away in bed for the nice. Elise’s little dark cave water sprite was no different. At 3:00 am in the morning, also known as the witching hour and all was still and calm. Jackolantern lights had long since been blown out for the year. A long night of shuffling from door to door and picking up candy had likely tuckered out each of the Schmitz*

*Except for Bastian who...is...not here..cus he had to do..imporant garou. Not here things...*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:05:44 PM)
*is sound asleep, having taken up the whole bed since Bastian was gone, sprawled across it without care*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:09:33 PM)
*Tick tick tick, the clock above the kitchen seemed to be the only thing that made any sort of noise. A soft light breeze blowing through the house, giving a chilling effect that was not normally present. The sound that shatter this peaceful night came in the form of howls singing a song to the night. Howls that were closer than comfort. One howl came first, the lowest of them all, followed by a second and third till all were in unison. A howl of introduction perhaps? Do anyone else it might not have sounded like anything but a pack of wild dogs calling out to moon.*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:10:48 PM)
*her eyes fly open, without moving on the bed, listening, breath caught in her throat*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:16:09 PM)
*The howl paused only for a moment, as if to listen for a call back. Once again there was silence for nearly of full minute. Then just as before the howl came again, in a nearly identical fashion as it had before. It didn’t sound ferocious, but more long a song sang in harmony with one’s own brothers. Only when she awoke would she notice just how cold it was in the house. Down on the floor beneath her danced a few dried leafs that looked to have been carried in on the wind. The question was how*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:17:33 PM)
*she sits up and looks down at the leaves on the floor, then towards the window as she gets up, even though she was sure she hadn't had it open*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:20:40 PM)
*The window isn’t open, but the curtains still move, the breeze coming more so from the door and the hall way than anything else. From what little bit Elise can see out the window it would appear that the waxing crescent moon was strikingly bright. No other noises within in the house stirred not even a peep from Emma’s room*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:21:27 PM)
*she turns on the light by her bed, getting up, needing to go and check anyway....some door or window was open*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:23:50 PM)
*A door was indeed open. The back door to the house to be exact, left wide open in the middle of the night, debris collecting near the entrance and scattered about. It must have been that way a couple of course for that much to have blown in. The door to Emma’s room was also open.*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:26:34 PM)
*she hurries to Emma's room to see if she's all right, flipping the light switch on before she can even get her head in the door to look*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:29:52 PM)
*Much to her horror Emma was not safely tucked away in her bed. Her pink and purple bedcover had been pulled kicked to the side and pushed away like any time she had gotten out of bed. Her bed had gone cold, leaving behind the impression she had not been there for a while. Yet nothing was missing. Her coat was still draped against the back of her hair and her shoes lay near the door undisturbed*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:30:31 PM)
Emma! *spinning and running out of the room, through the little living room towards the back door* EMMA!
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:34:59 PM)
*The moment she stepped out the back door Elise would lay eyes on something she had seen before. What she saw before her now was nearly identical to drawing Emma had shown her no more than two weeks ago. In the center of the back yard in bare feet and her night gown there stood Emma looking towards the woods. Long hair flowing in the breeze as she just stared off into the distance unblinking. Never once did she look back at Elise when her name was called, as if she didn’t hear her.*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:36:30 PM)
*she sighs a bit with relief that she's still there and seeming in one piece, she she glances around to see if more of the picture's manifested itself...there had been a wolf in it at least....*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:42:27 PM)
*At first Elise could see nothing but two sets of glowing yellow eyes forming at the tree line. One set disappearing till there was but one set. A beautiful white wolf who resembled more of a husky thanks to a nifty gift came into view first. He lifted his muzzle to the sky and howled once more now seeing Elise in his sights. It was as if he was asking permission to approach. Mean while Emma just stood there unmoving as she had for so long. Her feet coved in dirt, and her fingers and toes like ice*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:45:55 PM)
*her eyes narrow, but with the instructions she'd been getting from Bastian with understanding wolf communication better nonverbal-wise, she gives a very small, but perceptible nod that the form can approach, but stays on her guard....wolves had been in her house a long time ago and they weren't welcomed ones....she knew things could turn easily, and in a second, thinking in her head about the quickest route for her to get to the rifle in the closet by the front door...cursing herself for not keeping something closer to the back, in case...that was going to change....a nice new rack for Remy on the wall might be just the thing after tonight, whether it all went well or no*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:51:04 PM)
*The wolf dipped his head, once he got the small nod from Elise, he cast a look to his left and then to his right, soft subtle body language to those near him. Slowly he made his approach, soon followed to his left was another wolf, who by the light of moon could be seen as not having his eyes opened at all, he seemed to use his nose to guide him along. Lastly a small woman emerged no more than 20 years old, dressed in a jeans and a white t-shirt. Blonde hair and a kind smile each of them bearing the breeding of Children of Gaia, even if just a touch. *
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 7:52:48 PM)
*noting their heritage, and the fact that one was at least in homid, she relaxed--a touch--watching closely as the followers of Unicorn came to check out the Schmitz's own ward of the spirit*
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 7:58:06 PM)
*All eyes, and well nose was on Emma as they approached the blind wolf was even on target. The trio came to a stop with about 10 feet away from Emma and Elise. It was the Alpha Wolf in the middle who was closets and he sat promptly on is rump, followed by the blind wolf, who both looked to the young woman, then looked to Elise. Nodding her head once she began to speak* My name is Anya deeded, Ushers in the New Faith, Fostern to the Nation born on two legs under the crescent moon. my alpha would like to take his homid form to speak to you. Would this be acceptable or do you wish to wait for your mate?
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 8:00:50 PM)
*she shakes her head once* He may. I don't know when Sir Anvil-rhya will return.
scarybunnie (Oct 31, 2011 8:10:31 PM)
As you wish. *She bowed her head respectfully, only to take a step back. Not as disciplined as the other two in her pack Anya had a very hard time keeping her eyes from the child standing next to Elise. Funny Emma seemed to be watching them just the same, just without of any other outside recognition. Before both their eyes the husky looking wolf slowly morphed into a man in his late 30’s powerful and impressive looking but at the same time there was strange clam about him.* “I am Protects the Innocent, Alpha of Seekers of Gaia’s Hope, guided by black unicorn, born a wolf, under a full moon. Is she yours?” *He asks turning to look at Emma*
Elise Schmitz (Oct 31, 2011 8:11:49 PM)
*nodding politely to the man now standing before them* Emma is the adopted daughter of Sir Anvil-rhya and myself.

*When the alpha wolf shifted, Emma tilted her head to the side slightly like it was something she had not expected really but it was interesting none the less. Still she had not blinked, nothing outside of calm almost memorized like state. The Alpha wolf turning to look at the blind wolf who, took one step forward the air near her then took a step back. *
She may be, Protects-the-Innocent-rhya. She is not kin, so I have not asked her. *an honest, simple answer of an aetling careful to protect the veil* But she has visions that suggest she may know of Unicorn and Fenris, even of my mate's totem, Wysp. And she has survived a powerful bane possession. *she pauses* I would think surviving that shows she's something more than a human child.
*The PTI seems to consider Elise’s words very carefully, mulling over each of her words. Though it sounded like what he was looking for. He was not completely sure yet. So a test was in order. He turned to the blind wolf nodding his head once in an unspoken gesture. It was then that the blind wolf stood, and within the blink of an eye had shifted to his war form. That caught Emma’s attention right away. For 30 long seconds she was completely aware, blinking with a child like wonder* Momma…Who…is…that? *It was as if for that small amount of time, she was able to fend of delirium. Most than most any mortal would be able to do. It didn’t last forever. As if she could no long hold out the blond girl was no longer able to hold herself up, fainting into her mothers arms*
*her eyes wide that she'd lasted that long, she catches Emma easily before looking back towards the three garou*
*The Crinos metis looked to his alpha, grunted something in warform tongue, then shrunk back down to his less offensive lupus form. PTI, seemed pleased enough with his simple yet some might say crude test. Then in a most nonchalant he nods his head once* That answers that question. She seems to be one of the faithful ones. She probably wont wake up for a couple of minutes and it is cold out for those that don’t have a fur coat. Would you like to take her inside? I don’t suppose you understand much of what I am going on about.
*she nods, picking Emma up completely, nodding towards the house* Please come in. *leading the way into the living room, waiting on them to come inside* Should I put her to bed, or will you want to speak with her, PTI-rhya?
You may put her to bed. She is likely to have questions when she awakes. In my experience…they tend to remember what was seen just before going down, which as you know is unusual in and of its self. *The trio follows Elise into the house all in a orderly ranking fashion, with the small homid one being the last in closing the door behind her.* I will be your choice, and that of your mate’s as to what happens from here on. Though…you must know that I will try to persuade you in a certain way, for the betterment of us all.
(( it will be your choice ^))
*she nods* And know that I, at least, would listen to your counsel. Please have a seat. I'll be right back. *she carries her daughter into her room and tucks her back in snuggly, smoothing the blond hair back from her face and kissing her forehead before moving back to the living room* Can I offer you something to eat? Or drink maybe?
*He and the others all took a seat on the floor in the living room. Though he spoke well the alpha was most certainly lupus, as was seeing his preference for seating* “Your hospitality is most welcome. Just water would be nice. My pack and I have a special mission to find the faithful ones for either good or bad. It would seem that human sometimes discover within themselves a way of believing in something so completely that the unthinkable happens.
*she nods a little, motioning she'll be another moment, moving to the ktichen and soon returning with three glasses and a pitcher of water, pouring them and passing them out to PTI, the metis and the girl in order before taking a seat on the floor as well, a bit back from their circle, out of reverence*
*The alpha bows his head, taking the glass to look at it for a moment before taking a sip*My pack and I have seen visions of what the times will be like, but the end is not set in stone. We believe that the side, Gaian or Wyrm that has the faithful ones on their side will be the victor in the coming nights. It is believe and faith that will destroy the Gaia world or rebuild it.
And how does our Emma fit into that, PTI-rhya? If she could see a Garou in Crinos....*she shakes her head, trailing off, not really sure what that's all going to amount to*
*He seemed to smile at her question and nod* The trouble is…the faithful ones are born without prejudice to one side or the other. They can be nurtured to love and serve Gaia and her cause, or molded into being a driving and terrifying force for the wyrm. Agents of the wyrm have in the passed tired to possess and control your daughter. Yet she resisted. How? I am not certain. It could have been anything. But it seems she had chosen her side. *He pauses for a moment, then leans forward* But she is human, so how can she aid and know of us? She is not kinfolk. But, what if she –could- be. What would you think of this?
*her eyes widen some* If she could be kinfolk, she'd be raised as a proper aetling should be. To revere Gaia and all the spirits. To protect the Veil and keep the Litany. *she nods resolutely* You have my word.
*He smiled a little some, even as his other packmates peered over his shoulder and smiled as well. This may have been what they had been wanting to hear* It was our hope that you might see it this way. You and your mate will play a very big part in her life. It is up to you to see that she knows and understands the importance of our plight. Though…I have a strange feeling she already has an idea. My pack know of a way to let those humans who turely love Gaia to be able to be swept up and embraced in her arms. The vial would be parted to let her through. Make no mistake her responsibility would be great in her life time.
She's a tough kid. She could do it. *she nods* And she'll be raised as I was. She can handle it and I know I can speak for my mate in saying we'll do all we can to make sure she's ready for what Gaia has in store for her.
Then it will be so. My pack and I will give you some time so that you might speak with your daughter and explain to her what will happen. You may, if you wish tell a few others whom you trust deeply to join you and Emma for the rite. It will be painless, but could take awhile. Do you have any questions for me or my pack now?
*she nods* Yes....what's the ritual involve? And how do I go about telling Emma what she needs to know? *she shakes her head* I don't want to overwhelm her. Do you have guidelined, PTI-rhya?
We have...had but one other faithful one that belongs to Gaia know. Though the rite is often performed for mate of kin or garou of my tribe. I am believe you as her mother would be the best to tell her. You know her best. I sense that she loves and trusts you. The rite with out going into to much detail, is simply a welcoming song sang while garou shift to their breed form. I would like you to participate in the chanting being there to comfort her so that she is not frighten. There are a few other...pieces but you need not worry of them.
*she nods some, waiting to see if he has more to share about what she ought to be telling her specifically*
Tell her...that she will soon be a part of new and even bigger family. Tell her...what to expect, most importantly tell her she is safe and loved. *He said finnaly with a nod of his head*
*she pauses a moment, before nodding a little* And when will this take place?
Do you think that you and she will be ready within three or four risings of the moon?
*she nods her head* Yes, PTI-rhya. I'll make sure she's ready in that time.
My pack and I will stay guard outside till your Mate has arrived home. *He stood but even as he did stand he was shifting to his lupus form, again with that very husky like appearance that made it easier for CoG lupus to be seen as more dog and wolf, easing their interations with humans. The rest of his pack followed his lead*
*she looks after them* Y'all could stay in here. She's a heavy sleeper?
*The Alpha looked around the living room for a moment, nodded once before huffing in agreement . A slow circle traced before he settled down, the floor in front of Emma's door*
(( You need anything? Have any questions before I call it a scene?))
*once they seem settled* Y'all just help yourselves to whatever's around. And...*she thumbs towards her room* Just get me if you need anything. ( no questions. if i think of some, i'll fpm or skype you? sound ok?)
(( sounds perfect! Thanks for playing))
(thanks!)
