  "writing": "[b]Chapter Three\n[/b]\nSeveral wilds sit in silence in the back of pitch black truck, all of them quiet, many of them sleeping as to pass the time. For a week now they had been trapped in this small enclosed space, the only sign of light they would get when a hatch on the doors opened, these little doors large enough only to give them food to keep them from starving, and then promptly closing and locking once the food had been given, returning the back of the truck to its constant dark state once more.\n\nA grey wolf with a scar over his right eye who shared many of the same features as Dolly is among these wilds, he one of the many that had taken to sleeping through the trip in an attempt to have the time go by faster, the days very long when trapped in the back of a dark truck by an enemy deeming to use you for some unknown purpose.\n\n“Hey, Teddy wake up.”\n\nTeddy opens his eyes, he hardly able to see anything around him, this a typical sight to meet in the last week. He sits up trying to make out the other wilds around him, other wilds from tribes all over the place that had come to take part in or watch Iuana’s trials, all of them ending up in here with him.\n\nOver the course of the week they had been stuck with one another the wilds had begun to learn each other’s names, among other things and stories about themselves that they would tell to pass the time on the days spent in the darkness that felt years long.\n\nThe wild that had woken Teddy begins to inform him of the situation. “Something different is happening. We’re not moving anymore, and strange noises can be heard from outside.”\n\nTeddy frowns, what the other wild had said was indeed the truth, the trucks were no longer moving, and though they were known to come to a stop when the drivers and military personal that had captured them needed rest they were never accompanied by the sounds that Teddy and the other wilds could right now hear.\n\nTeddy gets to his feet, his whole body stiff and aching from being crammed inside the back of a truck hardly able to move for one week, he placing his ear against the side of the truck as he begins to listen. Accompanying the voices of their captors he could hear other vehicles, as well as the sounds of machines and hydraulics. “I think we may be at our destination.”\n\nThe sound of a heavy lock being opened sounds as the back of the truck they are in is unlocked and the doors thrown open, the wilds in the back of the truck all lifting their arms to shield their eyes from the bright light of outside, it having been a long time since they had seen any light at all, none of them used to it anymore.\n\nThe furless soldiers with strange ears and flat faces stand at the exit with weapons drawn, one of them motioning for the wilds to step out. “Keep your hands behind your head and exit in an orderly fashion. Don’t cause any trouble and you won’t get hurt.”\n\nTeddy and the other wilds do as they are told, there no way they could fight their captors even if they wanted to, their bodies all sore from the journey and starved from the small amounts of food they were given to keep them alive.\n\nTeddy keeps his hands behind his head as he begins to look at his surroundings, there were several trucks like the one he had been in being unloaded, each one just as packed with wilds as his happened to be.\n\nHe looks from the trucks and to his surroundings, he in a strange and unfamiliar place, the ground, walls, and everything that could be seen made out of a cold black metal. Even when you looked up you saw the same, the cold metal blocking out any traces of the sky.\n\nClearly they were in a building of some sort, it was much larger than any building that Teddy had ever seen before in his life, nor was it crafted like any building he had ever seen.\n\nHis mind wanders from the soldiers giving him and his group instructions when he sees an exceptionally large group of soldiers that had gathered around a single unopened truck, none of the other trucks that the wilds were being unloaded from gathering near as much attention as this one, it possibly having more guards than all the other trucks did put together. There even military members with emblems on their uniforms displaying high rankings gathered there.\n\nTeddy’s attention is taken off the truck when one of the soldiers leading him and his group along startles him. “Keep moving! And keep your eyes in front of you!”\n\nTeddy continues moving forward, having not realized that he had come to a stop when staring at the scene, Teddy trying to glace over to the scene without moving his head too much as to get yelled at by the guard again.\n\nOne of the soldiers approaches the unopened truck, unlocking the back and opening it, the other soldiers that had gathered there drawing their weapons as they wait in anticipation as if expecting something to happen.\n\nSure enough several voices begin to raise as commands are given, this shortly followed by a gun shoot, all the wilds that were being herded away stopping and looking around them upon hearing this noise, the guards having a difficult time to get them to ignore it and keep moving.\n\nTeddy takes this moment of confusion to look back in the direction of the truck, several soldiers on the ground while others move quickly into action to chase after the figure that had managed to get through them, Teddy’s eyes moving quickly around the area before he spots him, the figure that was right now running from the men he had managed to get through as he franticly looks for a way to escape.\n\nTeddy’s eyes widen, he recognizing the skunk that was dressed in the uniform of the domestic military, the escapee right now searched for a way out. “Magellan…?” It was amazing that Zack could still move let alone attack the soldiers that had surrounded him, Teddy himself could hardly stand up. Teddy raises his voice calling out to the skunk. “Hey! Magellan! Is that you?”\n\nZack turns in the direction that he had heard his name, he recognizing Teddy in return. “Conner…” Teddy stares back at him, there no doubt about it after seeing his face and hearing his voice to confirm it, that was Zack.\n\nAn odd expression fills Teddy’s face as he stares at Zack, Zack’s chest was rising and falling noticeably, his heart racing and whole body shaking as his eyes darted from side to side searching for a way out of this place he was in. There was no doubt about it, Zack was absolutely terrified of what was going on and of where he was.\n\nThe guard that had been leading Teddy’s group along notices that Teddy’s attention is elsewhere, he grabbing onto Teddy’s shoulder and forcefully moving him forward. “Keep moving!” The soldier lets out a painful shriek when Zack attacks him bringing him to the ground and disarming him of his weapon.\n\nTeddy stares at Zack in shock as he watches the skunk sets up the weapon to use, it not a weapon type or style that Teddy was familiar with at all. “Do you know how to use that thing?”\n\nZack looks back to Teddy. “Have you seen your sister anywhere?”\n\nTeddy seems worried to be asked this question. “Dolly…? No, I haven’t. Was she caught too?”\n\nZack nods his head, that having been the situation last he had been aware of the fighting. “Then let’s hope that she managed to escape before being brought here like you and me.” Zack grabs onto Teddy’s arm pulling him along as he turns to run, the soldiers all right now headed in their direction.\n\nTeddy looks over to Zack as he begins to question him. “Where are we? What’s going on?” Sirens begin to blare as a red light flashes within the large open room they are in, Zack quickly turning a corner finding a corridor leading out of the room and running through it.\n\nTeddy pants for breath as he struggles to keep up, he having never had to work so hard to keep up with Zack’s pace before. “How are you able to still move?”\n\nZack doesn’t answer him as he continues to drag Teddy along with him, turning corners and entering doorways, the two running through corridor after corridor, the place they were in like a maze.\n\nZack turns another corner, he coming to an abrupt stop when he finds that this one lead to another overly spacious room. Teddy looks the room over, it looking very similar to the one they had escaped from. “Did we run in a circle?”\n\nZack shakes his head no as he moves forward, this room being much bigger than the one they were in before, he making his way forward toward a railed edge where the walk way they were upon ended, the large room overlooking a massive stone cavern that seemed to glow with light, at strange energy throbbing through the air around them as sparks of jolts of energy and electricity thunder loudly while running through the air along the walls of the cave.\n\nTeddy looks the spectacle over, this like everything else around him unlike anything he had ever seen in his life. “What do you think this is all about…?”\n\nHe looks back to Zack when Zack lets out a frightened gasp and takes several steps back from the ledge that overlooked the caverns, one of the thundering flashes of electricity having startled him. “Hey are you ok?”\n\nZack looks back to Teddy, his whole body right now tense. “You have no idea how much I don’t like getting shocked by electricity.”\n\nThe sound of moving mechanics and hydraulics can be heard, Zack quickly looking back towards the door they had come through just to see it slide shut and lock, every other door in the room doing the same and trapping the two of them inside.\n\nZack curses to himself, the reality that they were once again trapped sinking in, he looks back to Teddy it only a matter of time before the soldiers reached this area subdued them. Now a good a time as any to answer Teddy’s constant stream of questions and explain what was going on. “We’re in a True Blood colony. The same one I was created in.”\n\n“A True Blood colony?” Teddy isn’t really clear on what this was, he not really knowing what a True Blood was.\n\nZack begins to look the room over for any means of escape. “I don’t know why they’ve brought me or you and the wilds here, but it’s most defiantly not good. But that hardly matters right now, the only thing we need to worry about is getting out of this place.”\n\n“How do you intend to do that?”\n\nZack moves his hand across the wall, looking for a break, a leaver, a door, anything that might help them out. “I don’t know… I’ve been here before but I’ve never once been able to escape.”\n\nAn angered voice over the loud speakers in the room begins to sound, catching their attention. “Number Twenty Six!”\n\nZack looks over toward the speaker the voice has come from, he recognizing the sound of it. “General Zephyr.”\n\n“I told you, it’s Commander General now.” The voice over the loud speakers begins to question Zack. “What are you doing?”\n\nZack continues to look over the walls around him. “Trying to find a way out of here.” He stops talking upon realizing that he had told his captor what he was doing.\n\nA laugh plays over the speakers, Zephyr clearly amused that Zack seemed to think that such a thing could even be attempted. “Trying to find a way out, how cute, the antics of you animals are always so entertaining.”\n\nZack yells back at the speakers that Zephyr was communicating to him through. “Don’t belittle me!”\n\n“I see you have a friend with you, I have to admit this is a little unexpected as your batch was not a very social bunch.”\n\nZack seems concerned with this comment, he now quickly beginning to scan the room around him, Zephyr having said that he could ‘see’ that he had a friend, meaning that he was watching him, either through a machine recording a visual feed or by actually being nearby. He spotting a camera nearby and lifting the weapon he right now held towards it and firing, a strange bullet of light hitting and destroying the weapon.\n\nTeddy stares at the weapon that Zack is holding. “Just what kind of gun is that?”\n\nThe voice continues to harass Zack. “Nice shot, but you’re going to have to do better than that.”\n\nZack continues to scan the room he is in, firing at and destroying every camera that he could find until he was sure that there were no more left. “Well done Twenty Six, but still not good enough, as I can still see you just fine.”\n\nAnother loud thunder and flash of lightening sounds, the noise startling Zack and causing him to pin his back against the wall he was standing near while facing the direction the sound had come from.\n\nTeddy looks up toward the high ceiling of the room spotting something, he reaching back and tapping Zack on the shoulder to get his attention as he points up toward it. “Hey, Magellan, look up there.”\n\nZack turns his head up looking in the direction that Teddy was telling him too, spotting a large room with glass windows that looked over this one as an observatory. Zephyr standing behind the glass with a microphone in hand, this what he was using to communicate to Zack through.\n\nZack raises the weapon he held, pointing it at and firing at the glass the bullet of light hitting it but not destroying its target, it instead looking to disperse and disintegrate on the surface of it.\n\nZephyr continues to stare down at Zack. “Interesting… it seems the failsafe encoded into your DNA that is supposed to keep you from attacking me is not working. Though I can’t say I’m all that surprised, you and the other super soldiers that were at the wild trials were able to attack the True Bloods that approached you, something else that particular failsafe should have prevented you from doing.”\n\nZephyr’s eyes move from Zack to Teddy. “So who is your little friend? And why is he important enough for you to try and save?”\n\nZack keeps his eyes fixed on Zephyr as he answers. “Teddy Conner, former soldier of the Domestic Military, twin brother of my partner Dolly Conner, the reason he’s important to me is because he’s important to my partner, if I let him get hurt or killed I’d never be able to look her in the face again.”\n\nTeddy quickly looks over to Zack horrified that he was telling this man that was clearly their enemy that kind of information. “Magellan what is wrong with you?! Why would you tell him all of that?!”\n\nZack looks back to Teddy having not porously blurted all of that out. “Sorry…”\n\nZephyr laughs at the two of them. “Now, now Mr. Conner, no need to look so betrayed, Twenty Six can’t help but answer any question I ask him. That’s just the way that he was built.”\n\nZack shudders as another flash and loud thunder of lightening sounds, Teddy looking back to him rather concerned with how badly he was taking the sound and sight of the strange phenomenon in this cave. “Are you going to be alright?”\n\nZephyr continues to question Zack. “I was surprised to find you at a wild’s suitor’s trials. There were actually a small number of domestics there, what were you all doing there?”\n\nZack looks up to Zephyr as he answers. “We were trying to capture Raven Wolf’s leader, who knows about and is able to use one of the Six Sources.”\n\nZephyr frowns at that information. “So then the domestics know about the Sources and have even located one of them… this is not good.”\n\nTeddy questions Zack about this. “The Six Sources…? What is that supposed to mean?” He frowns, he slightly recalling hearing a story regarding something of that. “Like in those stories my parents told me when I was a pup… the world’s six sources of power?”\n\nThe doors to the room begin to open as armed True Blood soldiers begin to swarm into the room and surround Zack and Teddy, interrupting the conversation before any more could be said. “Hands behind your heads now!”\n\nZack drops his weapon as he and Teddy do as they are told, he knowing better than to try and take on this many people at one time when cornered like this in a room.\n\nZephyr’s voice still plays in the speakers as he talks to Zack. “It looks like we’ll have to continue our enlightening little conversation later.” He now speaks to the soldiers. “I want that wild kept separate from the others, give him higher security and twenty four hour surveillance. Twenty Six deems him as important, so if he manages to escape again he’ll most likely head towards him, giving us a second chance at getting him under control.”\n\nThe soldiers subdue Zack, capturing him once again and leading him out of the room, they about to do the same with Teddy when a loud thunder and blinding flash fill the room, the sound more booming and light brighter than it had ever been before, Teddy looking back to see a flashing bolt of lightning approaching him.\n\n[center]*******[/center]\n\nThe female skunk known as Eleven sits alone in a forest of ice as she keeps her watch, there’s not a sign of life or even a sound in the cold forest.\n\n[i]Zack and Dolly are standing across from Eleven, the two soldiers of the Domestic Military who having come with the request to talk to Teddy, who was at the moment not there. Eleven right now questioning Zack on why he was listening to the orders of such a group. “You live your life locked away, only allowed out to see the light of day when you can be of use, being given the missions that no one else wants because it would pull too much upon their conscience and cause them to lose sleep. Just how many horrible things have you carried out just so that another member of the military could get a few more hours rest?”\n\nDolly looks back to Zack, her partner of course looking bothered by this accusation, but at the same time not denying it, Zack pausing for a moment to think over what Eleven had said before answering. “What choice do I have? There is no other way for someone like me to live, I was trained to fight my enemies and kill without hesitation nor remorse. Even you though on an opposing side cannot live in any other way, else you would not be a warrior of the Raven Wolf tribe like you are.”\n\nEleven frowns at him. “That is true enough for now, but not for much longer... I am learning how to live the way I was meant to and not exist only as a weapon.”\n\nZack argues back that not making sense at all. “A weapon can be nothing more than a weapon, it’s what it was intended to be when being crafted and it is the only roll it can possibly carry out.”\n\nEleven looks the two that had approached her over, refusing to continue with the conversation. “I will tell you a second time. Your brother is not here, so it is best you leave. If you do not then I will see your persistence as hostile and be forced to attack.”\n\nZack stares at her for a moment longer. “I’ll be back.” He looks to Dolly the two of them turning to leave.\n[/i]\nEleven continues to stare out around her, ever since then she had come here not only to patrol her territory, but in wait of her companion, she having believed his words when he had said that he would return, she even happy to hear them, wanting to see him again.\n\nUnfortunately though that moment never came to pass, Twenty Six never came back, and though Eleven continued to wait and expect him to this very day there were still no signs of him anywhere.\n\n“Eleven…”\n\nEleven turns her gaze behind her, spotting Kitchi approaching her. “Eleven… are you alright… I can’t help but notice how depressed you seem when you come out here.”\n\nEleven looks away from him, turning her attention to her surroundings, she getting down to business instead of choosing to talk to him about any of her personal feelings. “What have you come here for?”\n\nKitchi looks down toward the ground, Eleven always ignoring him whenever he would show concern for her. “You shouldn’t be out here, you know that don’t you? The task of patrolling the forest has been handed to me, as first warrior you should be in the village with our leader, Iuana.”\n\nEleven frowns as she remains in her spot unmoving. “I know that.”\n\nKitchi stares at her. “Then why are you here?”\n\nEleven stares out toward the freezing forest, though she knew exactly why she still chose to come here every night she was not about to tell him or anyone why. “That’s none of your concern.”\n\n“Well… are you going to go back to the village?”\n\n“I will when I want to.”\n\nKitchi lets out a sigh, though Eleven had always been rather distant to others it was worse now than it ever was before, and arguing with her about it would probably make it even worse yet. The situation was hard for everyone in the village, Tahki has after all been practically the only one that Eleven would ever choose to confide in, with her gone Eleven had no one to talk to when it came to getting things off of her chest.\n\nKitchi walks up next to the tree that Eleven standing under, he sitting on the ground next to her and staring out into the ice cold woods, even if Eleven was going to stay here it was still his job to patrol this area.\n\nHe glances over to Eleven. “I don’t mean to sound like I’m telling you what to do… I’m just worried about you that’s all. Coming out here every once and while is fine, but you really shouldn’t be ignoring your new duties. Being the first warrior is a very important job, if you’re not doing it properly then someone else will be given the position… if that happens it’ll look very bad no Tahki, since she is the one that hand chose you… not to mention that she’ll ‘rip you a new one’ when she gets back.”\n\nEleven looks down toward Kitchi, that not something he was known for saying. “Where did you hear that phrase?”\n\n“I heard Teddy say it once.”\n\nThe corners of Eleven’s mouth ever so slightly show a hint of a smile, it for some reason amusing for her to hear someone like Kitchi say something like that. She turns away from him as she continues to stare out at her surroundings. “Don’t worry, I am not ignoring my duties as first warrior. Iuana knows that I am out here, and she allows me to do so.”\n\nKitchi looks over to her. “Does she know why you come here all the time?”\n\n“No.”\n\n“You haven’t even told her?”\n\nEleven shakes her head no. “I never told Shiya or even Tahki.” She continues to stare ahead of her. “I’m waiting for someone… he said that he would be back… so I’m waiting…”\n\nKitchi frowns at the information, it a little disappointing for him to hear, as he happened to have quite a big crush on Eleven, so to hearing that she was doing this all to meet up with some guy was a little disheartening.  “Oh… I guess he must be really important to you then…”\n\n“He’s the most important thing in the world to me…”\n\n“Oh…” He lets out a heavy and disappointed sigh. “I see…” He looks back to Eleven. “So how come you’re telling me? Even after you said you’ve never told anyone else?”\n\nEleven takes a moment to look back to Kitchi. “You’re special.”\n\n“Special…? More so then our leaders and Tahki?”\n\n“Yes.”\n\nKitchi quickly looks away from her, not wanting Eleven to see the flustered look he had on his face right now. “Oh… well… I’m flattered… I guess…”\n\n[center]*******[/center]\n\nYula lays down in his bed, his eyes wide open as he stares at the roof of his hut, he still finding it hard to believe that he had gone and blurted out a lie like that to Iuana. He hadn’t planned on saying such things originally… it just kind of turned out that way, after all he couldn’t stand to see poor Iuana take things so hard while at the same time getting berated by the elders.\n\nHe sighs to himself, the whole situation nerve wreaking to him, though he had indeed made Iuana feel better and help restore her confidence in her title, this little lie was making him so worried and jumpy, what if one of them didn’t come back, or what if neither of them did? Everyone would realized that he had lied to them and then what would they think? Would they stop trusting him, would they kick him out?? What exactly was the punishment for an oracle that lies to his tribe?\n\nYula starts to become even more nervous the more he thought about it, perhaps the fate of a liar was even worse, what if the penalty for telling a lie was death or something?\n\nAchak enters the hut, he making his way to Yula’s bed and stopping next to it, calling out to him when he realizes that Yula is awake. “Yula”\n\nYula lets out a scream of surprise as he jumps up in shock, the wolf tumbling off of his bed and hitting the ground, he having been so preoccupied while dazing off that he hadn’t even seen Achak come in.\n\nAchak frowns as he stares down at Yula. “Jumpy today?”\n\nYula quickly pushes himself back to his feet. “Oh! No of course not! What would- I mean why would I be jumpy?” He looks back to Achak with a forced grin. “Just what are you implying saying I’m jumpy?”\n\nAchak stares at Yula a moment longer before shaking his head and humming to himself. “And everyone thinks I’m the weird one…”\n\n“Well… you kind of are…”\n\nAchak clears his throat, hardly amused with the direction this conversation was going, he returning it what he had originally come here for. “Eleven told me that you had a dream recently, one where you saw Shiya and Teddy returning unharmed. I would like to ask you a few things about it.”\n\nYula tries not to gulp. “Oh… that dream… I uhh… yeah okay, what do you want to know?”\n\n“I was just curious and slightly confused, you see, visions of the future, which I assume is what this vision was… are well, the most important thing about them is that they are always warnings, but this ‘vision of the future’ you had… it doesn’t sound like a warning at all…”\n\nYula begins to grow more nervous as he tries to think of something to explain that. “Oh… yeah I do remember you telling me something like that…”\n\nAchak continues. “Now Yula, why exactly would your vision be ‘warning’ us of their return? You would think that such a thing would be a happy occasion and not one that we would need to be warned of.”\n\nYula stares at Achak, he honestly the last one that Yula would ever think to be able to catch onto his vision being a lie, Achak always acting so spacey and eccentric, so much so that he couldn’t even do his own job and make the simplest of remedies without someone helping him out. “I guess you were wrong about visions of the future always being warnings. I mean… you’re always wrong about a lot of things so I guess it’s no surprise.”\n\nAchak narrows his eyes as he glares at Yula while letting out a low offended growl. “I am incorrect a lot of times but I am not ALWAYS wrong.”\n\nYula refuses to admit to anything, he not wanting to face the unknown punishment he would have to face for lying. “Yeah well you’re wrong about this! I mean, why would I lie about something like that?”\n\n“Do you know what happens when you lie Yula?”\n\nYula cringes as he slinks closer to the ground. “D- d- d- death…?”\n\nAchak stares at Yula for a moment before shaking his head now. “No not death! Why would you think that?” He sighs before explaining. “You lose people’s trust, a tribes relationship with its oracle is built on that foundation. If we start doubting you than we will start to doubt your visions and may one day ignore a warning of yours that should have been followed.”\n\nYula looks to the side. “Well… yeah I guess… but I didn’t-”\n\nAchak interrupts him before he could say anything further. “Have you ever heard the story of the wolf who cried man?”\n\n“The… what…?”\n\n“Long ago when animals were beasts and man still human, there was a young wolf who lived with his pack, he would often get bored and one day decided to pass the time by playing a trick on his pack members. ‘A man a man! I saw him, he had guns and traps and means to kill us all for our fur! We should run before he gets here!’ Everyone in his pack panicked, and prepared for the worst, but no hunters came. The pack became angry at the young wolf and tried to lecture him, but their warnings fell upon deaf ears for the young wolf was too busy laughing at their foolishness of believing him that he could not hear what they had to say.\n\nSometime later the young wolf decided to do it again. ‘A man a man! I saw a hunter coming this way! He’s come to skin us and take our fur’ once again his pack prepared for the worst only to have nothing come. The young wolf thought himself rather witty, as he was able to fool his pack twice now with the same prank.\n\nThen one day when the young wolf was out he saw some hunters with guns and traps, he returns to his pack to warn them. ‘Men! Men! I saw them, the smell of their guns is terrible and their traps as so frightening! We need to get as far away from them as we can!’ But because his warning was so similar to his pranks he had been playing no one believed him, and not a single wolf did anything about it.\n\nThe young wolf went off on his own running as far as he could, hoping that his pack would follow after realizing that he was gone, but they never did. When he returned to see if they were all right all he found were their bloody skinned remains, all of them having been killed by the humans that he had tried to warn them of.”\n\nYula is sickened to hear this. “What!? Why would they take their fur? What is the point to that! What a stupid story! No one would kill anyone else just to take their fur.”\n\nAchak seems rather frustrated. “The moral of that story just went right over your head didn’t it?”\n\nYula lets out a shudder, the whole scenario weird. “I mean! Why would you do that? That’s just… ew…”\n\nAchak lets out an annoyed groan as he tries to explain. “It was a human! A human did it! Humans don’t have fur of their own so they steal it from those that have it so that they can stay warm to survive.”\n\nYula seems even more horrified. “What? That’s just… No! That’s just gross no one would really do that. Who would willingly kill someone, skin them and then wear their fur around, that’s just! No! No one would do that’s just disgusting!”\n\nAchak raises his voice, getting straight to the point. “Lies do more harm than good Yula!!  And they have terrible consequences when they are brought to light! Even more so for an Oracle!”\n\nYula jumps back from Achak. “Yeah… I… ok…” He looks down toward the ground. “But… I didn’t lie.”\n\nAchak lets out a frustrated sigh, clearly continuing to press Yula on the subject wasn’t going to get him anywhere even if he knew that he wasn’t telling the truth. “Yula… Iuana has lost her father, her suitor and Tahki, who even though she did not get along with, was the strongest support she had to lean on when it came to controlling the tribes warriors in the way that her father wanted to… she is more vulnerable now than ever before so please, don’t blurt out things like that so needlessly. Even if you have nothing but the best intentions on your mind it will not turn out good.”\n\n[center]*******[/center]\n\nShiya lets out a sigh as he holds the remote for Dolly’s television in his hands, he slowly switching through channels while trying to find something to entertain him, he never having this problem when with his tribe, there always more than enough things for him to be trying to get done in a day. “I haven’t had this much free time since…” He pauses thinking this over. “Just when was the last time I had so much free time I didn’t know what to do with it… long before becoming Raven Wolf’s chieftain, heck, even long before joining when they were still known as Laughing Meadow.”\n\nHe falls back in the sofa as he thinks this over, something having occurred to him. “I can’t believe how old I am!” He frowns as he continues to both think and talk to himself. “Though, I guess that’s normal considering the circumstances…”\n\nA girly laughter from the television fills the air, Shiya looking up to find that he had landed on a variety talk show television program, the host talking to a very pretty equestrian actress, the white horse with a long flowing blond mane having let out an embarrassing giggle after being asked a question by the host. “No, honestly I didn’t think when taking the roll as the character that the series would have so many fans well outside the targeted age and gender range, when Shera Pegasus of Power was first pitched it was intended to be a show with a strong female lead that young girls could use as a positive and empowering role model. Don’t get me wrong though I’m so happy with and appreciate all the fans of the show!”\n\nShiya perks his right ear towards the screen, he recognizing that actress from the show that Kit, a boy that he had taken care of for a short time, had always watched and most always talked about every chance he got. “That’s the young woman that plays that character Kit keeps pronouncing my name as.”\n\nThe host of the talk show begins to wrap up the program. “As much as I would like to continue that’s all the time I have for today.”\n\n“Oh? How unfortunate, I had an absolutely lovely time talking with you.”\n\n“Is there anything you would like to say to our viewers before we go?”\n\nThe actress shakes her head no. “Oh no, no worries.” She stops smiling for a moment. “Oh! Wait I do have something to say.” She smiles as she turns towards the camera. “A long time friend of mine was wounded recently, I don’t know if he’s watching the program or not, but I would still like to wish him a healthy return and hope him the best.” She waves her hand at the camera in a friendly manner. “So get better soon alright!”\n\nShiya stares at the screen, though by all logic it was clear she wasn’t referring to him it still for some reason felt like her well wishes had been meant for him, possibly because he found himself in this unfortunate situation. “Yeah… I’ll get better as quickly as possible.”\n\nThe front door to the apartment opens and Dolly comes storming in, Shiya instinctively moving back from her when she fixes him with a glare upon entering, Dolly starting to vent her frustration out on him shortly after coming home. “I can’t believe I’m doing this! I should just turn you in and then I wouldn’t have to worry so much about my companions like this!” She lets out a heavy sigh as she takes a seat at her table, laying her head down on it and letting an aggravated moan. “Then again… if I turned you in it would only help out Alistair… and I can’t stand him… Chase, Kane and Vaan would all still be in trouble…”\n\nShiya seems afraid to question her on what she was talking about, he eventually going against his better judgement and asking. “Did something happen?”\n\nDolly nods her head yes. “The super soldiers were all appointed targets and then given two weeks to capture them… if they can’t do it then General Dmitri is going to have them destroyed.”\n\nShiya looks to the side, though that was unfortunate he knew that the targets the super soldiers were seeking we either him or his friends and family. “I see…”\n\nDolly looks back to Shiya. “Just what is so important about you!?”\n\nShiya turns away from her opting to remain silent, Dolly pushes further, though this was a constant question she had been berating Shiya about it was more important now than ever before that he spoke up. “The lives of my comrades are in danger and I want to know why! What is it the military sees about you that I don’t? I know it has something to do with that ice thing you do but what exactly is it?” She raises her voice even louder the situation serious. “If you don’t start saying something then I’m going to make sure that Yula’s vision of me severally hurting you and possibly killing you comes true!”\n\nShiya lets out a heavy sigh as he looks toward Dolly finally giving in, Dolly much more heated than usual now that the lives of her friends were at stake, and honestly Shiya couldn’t blame her for that. “I am one of the six sources.”\n",
  "writing_bbcode_parsed": "<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'><strong>Chapter Three<br /></strong><br />Several wilds sit in silence in the back of pitch black truck, all of them quiet, many of them sleeping as to pass the time. For a week now they had been trapped in this small enclosed space, the only sign of light they would get when a hatch on the doors opened, these little doors large enough only to give them food to keep them from starving, and then promptly closing and locking once the food had been given, returning the back of the truck to its constant dark state once more.<br /><br />A grey wolf with a scar over his right eye who shared many of the same features as Dolly is among these wilds, he one of the many that had taken to sleeping through the trip in an attempt to have the time go by faster, the days very long when trapped in the back of a dark truck by an enemy deeming to use you for some unknown purpose.<br /><br />&ldquo;Hey, Teddy wake up.&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy opens his eyes, he hardly able to see anything around him, this a typical sight to meet in the last week. He sits up trying to make out the other wilds around him, other wilds from tribes all over the place that had come to take part in or watch Iuana&rsquo;s trials, all of them ending up in here with him.<br /><br />Over the course of the week they had been stuck with one another the wilds had begun to learn each other&rsquo;s names, among other things and stories about themselves that they would tell to pass the time on the days spent in the darkness that felt years long.<br /><br />The wild that had woken Teddy begins to inform him of the situation. &ldquo;Something different is happening. We&rsquo;re not moving anymore, and strange noises can be heard from outside.&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy frowns, what the other wild had said was indeed the truth, the trucks were no longer moving, and though they were known to come to a stop when the drivers and military personal that had captured them needed rest they were never accompanied by the sounds that Teddy and the other wilds could right now hear.<br /><br />Teddy gets to his feet, his whole body stiff and aching from being crammed inside the back of a truck hardly able to move for one week, he placing his ear against the side of the truck as he begins to listen. Accompanying the voices of their captors he could hear other vehicles, as well as the sounds of machines and hydraulics. &ldquo;I think we may be at our destination.&rdquo;<br /><br />The sound of a heavy lock being opened sounds as the back of the truck they are in is unlocked and the doors thrown open, the wilds in the back of the truck all lifting their arms to shield their eyes from the bright light of outside, it having been a long time since they had seen any light at all, none of them used to it anymore.<br /><br />The furless soldiers with strange ears and flat faces stand at the exit with weapons drawn, one of them motioning for the wilds to step out. &ldquo;Keep your hands behind your head and exit in an orderly fashion. Don&rsquo;t cause any trouble and you won&rsquo;t get hurt.&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy and the other wilds do as they are told, there no way they could fight their captors even if they wanted to, their bodies all sore from the journey and starved from the small amounts of food they were given to keep them alive.<br /><br />Teddy keeps his hands behind his head as he begins to look at his surroundings, there were several trucks like the one he had been in being unloaded, each one just as packed with wilds as his happened to be.<br /><br />He looks from the trucks and to his surroundings, he in a strange and unfamiliar place, the ground, walls, and everything that could be seen made out of a cold black metal. Even when you looked up you saw the same, the cold metal blocking out any traces of the sky.<br /><br />Clearly they were in a building of some sort, it was much larger than any building that Teddy had ever seen before in his life, nor was it crafted like any building he had ever seen.<br /><br />His mind wanders from the soldiers giving him and his group instructions when he sees an exceptionally large group of soldiers that had gathered around a single unopened truck, none of the other trucks that the wilds were being unloaded from gathering near as much attention as this one, it possibly having more guards than all the other trucks did put together. There even military members with emblems on their uniforms displaying high rankings gathered there.<br /><br />Teddy&rsquo;s attention is taken off the truck when one of the soldiers leading him and his group along startles him. &ldquo;Keep moving! And keep your eyes in front of you!&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy continues moving forward, having not realized that he had come to a stop when staring at the scene, Teddy trying to glace over to the scene without moving his head too much as to get yelled at by the guard again.<br /><br />One of the soldiers approaches the unopened truck, unlocking the back and opening it, the other soldiers that had gathered there drawing their weapons as they wait in anticipation as if expecting something to happen.<br /><br />Sure enough several voices begin to raise as commands are given, this shortly followed by a gun shoot, all the wilds that were being herded away stopping and looking around them upon hearing this noise, the guards having a difficult time to get them to ignore it and keep moving.<br /><br />Teddy takes this moment of confusion to look back in the direction of the truck, several soldiers on the ground while others move quickly into action to chase after the figure that had managed to get through them, Teddy&rsquo;s eyes moving quickly around the area before he spots him, the figure that was right now running from the men he had managed to get through as he franticly looks for a way to escape.<br /><br />Teddy&rsquo;s eyes widen, he recognizing the skunk that was dressed in the uniform of the domestic military, the escapee right now searched for a way out. &ldquo;Magellan&hellip;?&rdquo; It was amazing that Zack could still move let alone attack the soldiers that had surrounded him, Teddy himself could hardly stand up. Teddy raises his voice calling out to the skunk. &ldquo;Hey! Magellan! Is that you?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack turns in the direction that he had heard his name, he recognizing Teddy in return. &ldquo;Conner&hellip;&rdquo; Teddy stares back at him, there no doubt about it after seeing his face and hearing his voice to confirm it, that was Zack.<br /><br />An odd expression fills Teddy&rsquo;s face as he stares at Zack, Zack&rsquo;s chest was rising and falling noticeably, his heart racing and whole body shaking as his eyes darted from side to side searching for a way out of this place he was in. There was no doubt about it, Zack was absolutely terrified of what was going on and of where he was.<br /><br />The guard that had been leading Teddy&rsquo;s group along notices that Teddy&rsquo;s attention is elsewhere, he grabbing onto Teddy&rsquo;s shoulder and forcefully moving him forward. &ldquo;Keep moving!&rdquo; The soldier lets out a painful shriek when Zack attacks him bringing him to the ground and disarming him of his weapon.<br /><br />Teddy stares at Zack in shock as he watches the skunk sets up the weapon to use, it not a weapon type or style that Teddy was familiar with at all. &ldquo;Do you know how to use that thing?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack looks back to Teddy. &ldquo;Have you seen your sister anywhere?&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy seems worried to be asked this question. &ldquo;Dolly&hellip;? No, I haven&rsquo;t. Was she caught too?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack nods his head, that having been the situation last he had been aware of the fighting. &ldquo;Then let&rsquo;s hope that she managed to escape before being brought here like you and me.&rdquo; Zack grabs onto Teddy&rsquo;s arm pulling him along as he turns to run, the soldiers all right now headed in their direction.<br /><br />Teddy looks over to Zack as he begins to question him. &ldquo;Where are we? What&rsquo;s going on?&rdquo; Sirens begin to blare as a red light flashes within the large open room they are in, Zack quickly turning a corner finding a corridor leading out of the room and running through it.<br /><br />Teddy pants for breath as he struggles to keep up, he having never had to work so hard to keep up with Zack&rsquo;s pace before. &ldquo;How are you able to still move?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack doesn&rsquo;t answer him as he continues to drag Teddy along with him, turning corners and entering doorways, the two running through corridor after corridor, the place they were in like a maze.<br /><br />Zack turns another corner, he coming to an abrupt stop when he finds that this one lead to another overly spacious room. Teddy looks the room over, it looking very similar to the one they had escaped from. &ldquo;Did we run in a circle?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack shakes his head no as he moves forward, this room being much bigger than the one they were in before, he making his way forward toward a railed edge where the walk way they were upon ended, the large room overlooking a massive stone cavern that seemed to glow with light, at strange energy throbbing through the air around them as sparks of jolts of energy and electricity thunder loudly while running through the air along the walls of the cave.<br /><br />Teddy looks the spectacle over, this like everything else around him unlike anything he had ever seen in his life. &ldquo;What do you think this is all about&hellip;?&rdquo;<br /><br />He looks back to Zack when Zack lets out a frightened gasp and takes several steps back from the ledge that overlooked the caverns, one of the thundering flashes of electricity having startled him. &ldquo;Hey are you ok?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack looks back to Teddy, his whole body right now tense. &ldquo;You have no idea how much I don&rsquo;t like getting shocked by electricity.&rdquo;<br /><br />The sound of moving mechanics and hydraulics can be heard, Zack quickly looking back towards the door they had come through just to see it slide shut and lock, every other door in the room doing the same and trapping the two of them inside.<br /><br />Zack curses to himself, the reality that they were once again trapped sinking in, he looks back to Teddy it only a matter of time before the soldiers reached this area subdued them. Now a good a time as any to answer Teddy&rsquo;s constant stream of questions and explain what was going on. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re in a True Blood colony. The same one I was created in.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;A True Blood colony?&rdquo; Teddy isn&rsquo;t really clear on what this was, he not really knowing what a True Blood was.<br /><br />Zack begins to look the room over for any means of escape. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know why they&rsquo;ve brought me or you and the wilds here, but it&rsquo;s most defiantly not good. But that hardly matters right now, the only thing we need to worry about is getting out of this place.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;How do you intend to do that?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack moves his hand across the wall, looking for a break, a leaver, a door, anything that might help them out. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know&hellip; I&rsquo;ve been here before but I&rsquo;ve never once been able to escape.&rdquo;<br /><br />An angered voice over the loud speakers in the room begins to sound, catching their attention. &ldquo;Number Twenty Six!&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack looks over toward the speaker the voice has come from, he recognizing the sound of it. &ldquo;General Zephyr.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I told you, it&rsquo;s Commander General now.&rdquo; The voice over the loud speakers begins to question Zack. &ldquo;What are you doing?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack continues to look over the walls around him. &ldquo;Trying to find a way out of here.&rdquo; He stops talking upon realizing that he had told his captor what he was doing.<br /><br />A laugh plays over the speakers, Zephyr clearly amused that Zack seemed to think that such a thing could even be attempted. &ldquo;Trying to find a way out, how cute, the antics of you animals are always so entertaining.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack yells back at the speakers that Zephyr was communicating to him through. &ldquo;Don&rsquo;t belittle me!&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I see you have a friend with you, I have to admit this is a little unexpected as your batch was not a very social bunch.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack seems concerned with this comment, he now quickly beginning to scan the room around him, Zephyr having said that he could &lsquo;see&rsquo; that he had a friend, meaning that he was watching him, either through a machine recording a visual feed or by actually being nearby. He spotting a camera nearby and lifting the weapon he right now held towards it and firing, a strange bullet of light hitting and destroying the weapon.<br /><br />Teddy stares at the weapon that Zack is holding. &ldquo;Just what kind of gun is that?&rdquo;<br /><br />The voice continues to harass Zack. &ldquo;Nice shot, but you&rsquo;re going to have to do better than that.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack continues to scan the room he is in, firing at and destroying every camera that he could find until he was sure that there were no more left. &ldquo;Well done Twenty Six, but still not good enough, as I can still see you just fine.&rdquo;<br /><br />Another loud thunder and flash of lightening sounds, the noise startling Zack and causing him to pin his back against the wall he was standing near while facing the direction the sound had come from.<br /><br />Teddy looks up toward the high ceiling of the room spotting something, he reaching back and tapping Zack on the shoulder to get his attention as he points up toward it. &ldquo;Hey, Magellan, look up there.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack turns his head up looking in the direction that Teddy was telling him too, spotting a large room with glass windows that looked over this one as an observatory. Zephyr standing behind the glass with a microphone in hand, this what he was using to communicate to Zack through.<br /><br />Zack raises the weapon he held, pointing it at and firing at the glass the bullet of light hitting it but not destroying its target, it instead looking to disperse and disintegrate on the surface of it.<br /><br />Zephyr continues to stare down at Zack. &ldquo;Interesting&hellip; it seems the failsafe encoded into your DNA that is supposed to keep you from attacking me is not working. Though I can&rsquo;t say I&rsquo;m all that surprised, you and the other super soldiers that were at the wild trials were able to attack the True Bloods that approached you, something else that particular failsafe should have prevented you from doing.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zephyr&rsquo;s eyes move from Zack to Teddy. &ldquo;So who is your little friend? And why is he important enough for you to try and save?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack keeps his eyes fixed on Zephyr as he answers. &ldquo;Teddy Conner, former soldier of the Domestic Military, twin brother of my partner Dolly Conner, the reason he&rsquo;s important to me is because he&rsquo;s important to my partner, if I let him get hurt or killed I&rsquo;d never be able to look her in the face again.&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy quickly looks over to Zack horrified that he was telling this man that was clearly their enemy that kind of information. &ldquo;Magellan what is wrong with you?! Why would you tell him all of that?!&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack looks back to Teddy having not porously blurted all of that out. &ldquo;Sorry&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Zephyr laughs at the two of them. &ldquo;Now, now Mr. Conner, no need to look so betrayed, Twenty Six can&rsquo;t help but answer any question I ask him. That&rsquo;s just the way that he was built.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack shudders as another flash and loud thunder of lightening sounds, Teddy looking back to him rather concerned with how badly he was taking the sound and sight of the strange phenomenon in this cave. &ldquo;Are you going to be alright?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zephyr continues to question Zack. &ldquo;I was surprised to find you at a wild&rsquo;s suitor&rsquo;s trials. There were actually a small number of domestics there, what were you all doing there?&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack looks up to Zephyr as he answers. &ldquo;We were trying to capture Raven Wolf&rsquo;s leader, who knows about and is able to use one of the Six Sources.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zephyr frowns at that information. &ldquo;So then the domestics know about the Sources and have even located one of them&hellip; this is not good.&rdquo;<br /><br />Teddy questions Zack about this. &ldquo;The Six Sources&hellip;? What is that supposed to mean?&rdquo; He frowns, he slightly recalling hearing a story regarding something of that. &ldquo;Like in those stories my parents told me when I was a pup&hellip; the world&rsquo;s six sources of power?&rdquo;<br /><br />The doors to the room begin to open as armed True Blood soldiers begin to swarm into the room and surround Zack and Teddy, interrupting the conversation before any more could be said. &ldquo;Hands behind your heads now!&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack drops his weapon as he and Teddy do as they are told, he knowing better than to try and take on this many people at one time when cornered like this in a room.<br /><br />Zephyr&rsquo;s voice still plays in the speakers as he talks to Zack. &ldquo;It looks like we&rsquo;ll have to continue our enlightening little conversation later.&rdquo; He now speaks to the soldiers. &ldquo;I want that wild kept separate from the others, give him higher security and twenty four hour surveillance. Twenty Six deems him as important, so if he manages to escape again he&rsquo;ll most likely head towards him, giving us a second chance at getting him under control.&rdquo;<br /><br />The soldiers subdue Zack, capturing him once again and leading him out of the room, they about to do the same with Teddy when a loud thunder and blinding flash fill the room, the sound more booming and light brighter than it had ever been before, Teddy looking back to see a flashing bolt of lightning approaching him.<br /><br /><div class='align_center'>*******</div><br /><br />The female skunk known as Eleven sits alone in a forest of ice as she keeps her watch, there&rsquo;s not a sign of life or even a sound in the cold forest.<br /><br /><em>Zack and Dolly are standing across from Eleven, the two soldiers of the Domestic Military who having come with the request to talk to Teddy, who was at the moment not there. Eleven right now questioning Zack on why he was listening to the orders of such a group. &ldquo;You live your life locked away, only allowed out to see the light of day when you can be of use, being given the missions that no one else wants because it would pull too much upon their conscience and cause them to lose sleep. Just how many horrible things have you carried out just so that another member of the military could get a few more hours rest?&rdquo;<br /><br />Dolly looks back to Zack, her partner of course looking bothered by this accusation, but at the same time not denying it, Zack pausing for a moment to think over what Eleven had said before answering. &ldquo;What choice do I have? There is no other way for someone like me to live, I was trained to fight my enemies and kill without hesitation nor remorse. Even you though on an opposing side cannot live in any other way, else you would not be a warrior of the Raven Wolf tribe like you are.&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven frowns at him. &ldquo;That is true enough for now, but not for much longer... I am learning how to live the way I was meant to and not exist only as a weapon.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack argues back that not making sense at all. &ldquo;A weapon can be nothing more than a weapon, it&rsquo;s what it was intended to be when being crafted and it is the only roll it can possibly carry out.&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven looks the two that had approached her over, refusing to continue with the conversation. &ldquo;I will tell you a second time. Your brother is not here, so it is best you leave. If you do not then I will see your persistence as hostile and be forced to attack.&rdquo;<br /><br />Zack stares at her for a moment longer. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ll be back.&rdquo; He looks to Dolly the two of them turning to leave.<br /></em><br />Eleven continues to stare out around her, ever since then she had come here not only to patrol her territory, but in wait of her companion, she having believed his words when he had said that he would return, she even happy to hear them, wanting to see him again.<br /><br />Unfortunately though that moment never came to pass, Twenty Six never came back, and though Eleven continued to wait and expect him to this very day there were still no signs of him anywhere.<br /><br />&ldquo;Eleven&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven turns her gaze behind her, spotting Kitchi approaching her. &ldquo;Eleven&hellip; are you alright&hellip; I can&rsquo;t help but notice how depressed you seem when you come out here.&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven looks away from him, turning her attention to her surroundings, she getting down to business instead of choosing to talk to him about any of her personal feelings. &ldquo;What have you come here for?&rdquo;<br /><br />Kitchi looks down toward the ground, Eleven always ignoring him whenever he would show concern for her. &ldquo;You shouldn&rsquo;t be out here, you know that don&rsquo;t you? The task of patrolling the forest has been handed to me, as first warrior you should be in the village with our leader, Iuana.&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven frowns as she remains in her spot unmoving. &ldquo;I know that.&rdquo;<br /><br />Kitchi stares at her. &ldquo;Then why are you here?&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven stares out toward the freezing forest, though she knew exactly why she still chose to come here every night she was not about to tell him or anyone why. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s none of your concern.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Well&hellip; are you going to go back to the village?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I will when I want to.&rdquo;<br /><br />Kitchi lets out a sigh, though Eleven had always been rather distant to others it was worse now than it ever was before, and arguing with her about it would probably make it even worse yet. The situation was hard for everyone in the village, Tahki has after all been practically the only one that Eleven would ever choose to confide in, with her gone Eleven had no one to talk to when it came to getting things off of her chest.<br /><br />Kitchi walks up next to the tree that Eleven standing under, he sitting on the ground next to her and staring out into the ice cold woods, even if Eleven was going to stay here it was still his job to patrol this area.<br /><br />He glances over to Eleven. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t mean to sound like I&rsquo;m telling you what to do&hellip; I&rsquo;m just worried about you that&rsquo;s all. Coming out here every once and while is fine, but you really shouldn&rsquo;t be ignoring your new duties. Being the first warrior is a very important job, if you&rsquo;re not doing it properly then someone else will be given the position&hellip; if that happens it&rsquo;ll look very bad no Tahki, since she is the one that hand chose you&hellip; not to mention that she&rsquo;ll &lsquo;rip you a new one&rsquo; when she gets back.&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven looks down toward Kitchi, that not something he was known for saying. &ldquo;Where did you hear that phrase?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I heard Teddy say it once.&rdquo;<br /><br />The corners of Eleven&rsquo;s mouth ever so slightly show a hint of a smile, it for some reason amusing for her to hear someone like Kitchi say something like that. She turns away from him as she continues to stare out at her surroundings. &ldquo;Don&rsquo;t worry, I am not ignoring my duties as first warrior. Iuana knows that I am out here, and she allows me to do so.&rdquo;<br /><br />Kitchi looks over to her. &ldquo;Does she know why you come here all the time?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;No.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;You haven&rsquo;t even told her?&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven shakes her head no. &ldquo;I never told Shiya or even Tahki.&rdquo; She continues to stare ahead of her. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m waiting for someone&hellip; he said that he would be back&hellip; so I&rsquo;m waiting&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Kitchi frowns at the information, it a little disappointing for him to hear, as he happened to have quite a big crush on Eleven, so to hearing that she was doing this all to meet up with some guy was a little disheartening.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Oh&hellip; I guess he must be really important to you then&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;He&rsquo;s the most important thing in the world to me&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Oh&hellip;&rdquo; He lets out a heavy and disappointed sigh. &ldquo;I see&hellip;&rdquo; He looks back to Eleven. &ldquo;So how come you&rsquo;re telling me? Even after you said you&rsquo;ve never told anyone else?&rdquo;<br /><br />Eleven takes a moment to look back to Kitchi. &ldquo;You&rsquo;re special.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Special&hellip;? More so then our leaders and Tahki?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Yes.&rdquo;<br /><br />Kitchi quickly looks away from her, not wanting Eleven to see the flustered look he had on his face right now. &ldquo;Oh&hellip; well&hellip; I&rsquo;m flattered&hellip; I guess&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br /><div class='align_center'>*******</div><br /><br />Yula lays down in his bed, his eyes wide open as he stares at the roof of his hut, he still finding it hard to believe that he had gone and blurted out a lie like that to Iuana. He hadn&rsquo;t planned on saying such things originally&hellip; it just kind of turned out that way, after all he couldn&rsquo;t stand to see poor Iuana take things so hard while at the same time getting berated by the elders.<br /><br />He sighs to himself, the whole situation nerve wreaking to him, though he had indeed made Iuana feel better and help restore her confidence in her title, this little lie was making him so worried and jumpy, what if one of them didn&rsquo;t come back, or what if neither of them did? Everyone would realized that he had lied to them and then what would they think? Would they stop trusting him, would they kick him out?? What exactly was the punishment for an oracle that lies to his tribe?<br /><br />Yula starts to become even more nervous the more he thought about it, perhaps the fate of a liar was even worse, what if the penalty for telling a lie was death or something?<br /><br />Achak enters the hut, he making his way to Yula&rsquo;s bed and stopping next to it, calling out to him when he realizes that Yula is awake. &ldquo;Yula&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula lets out a scream of surprise as he jumps up in shock, the wolf tumbling off of his bed and hitting the ground, he having been so preoccupied while dazing off that he hadn&rsquo;t even seen Achak come in.<br /><br />Achak frowns as he stares down at Yula. &ldquo;Jumpy today?&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula quickly pushes himself back to his feet. &ldquo;Oh! No of course not! What would- I mean why would I be jumpy?&rdquo; He looks back to Achak with a forced grin. &ldquo;Just what are you implying saying I&rsquo;m jumpy?&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak stares at Yula a moment longer before shaking his head and humming to himself. &ldquo;And everyone thinks I&rsquo;m the weird one&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Well&hellip; you kind of are&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak clears his throat, hardly amused with the direction this conversation was going, he returning it what he had originally come here for. &ldquo;Eleven told me that you had a dream recently, one where you saw Shiya and Teddy returning unharmed. I would like to ask you a few things about it.&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula tries not to gulp. &ldquo;Oh&hellip; that dream&hellip; I uhh&hellip; yeah okay, what do you want to know?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I was just curious and slightly confused, you see, visions of the future, which I assume is what this vision was&hellip; are well, the most important thing about them is that they are always warnings, but this &lsquo;vision of the future&rsquo; you had&hellip; it doesn&rsquo;t sound like a warning at all&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula begins to grow more nervous as he tries to think of something to explain that. &ldquo;Oh&hellip; yeah I do remember you telling me something like that&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak continues. &ldquo;Now Yula, why exactly would your vision be &lsquo;warning&rsquo; us of their return? You would think that such a thing would be a happy occasion and not one that we would need to be warned of.&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula stares at Achak, he honestly the last one that Yula would ever think to be able to catch onto his vision being a lie, Achak always acting so spacey and eccentric, so much so that he couldn&rsquo;t even do his own job and make the simplest of remedies without someone helping him out. &ldquo;I guess you were wrong about visions of the future always being warnings. I mean&hellip; you&rsquo;re always wrong about a lot of things so I guess it&rsquo;s no surprise.&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak narrows his eyes as he glares at Yula while letting out a low offended growl. &ldquo;I am incorrect a lot of times but I am not ALWAYS wrong.&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula refuses to admit to anything, he not wanting to face the unknown punishment he would have to face for lying. &ldquo;Yeah well you&rsquo;re wrong about this! I mean, why would I lie about something like that?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Do you know what happens when you lie Yula?&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula cringes as he slinks closer to the ground. &ldquo;D- d- d- death&hellip;?&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak stares at Yula for a moment before shaking his head now. &ldquo;No not death! Why would you think that?&rdquo; He sighs before explaining. &ldquo;You lose people&rsquo;s trust, a tribes relationship with its oracle is built on that foundation. If we start doubting you than we will start to doubt your visions and may one day ignore a warning of yours that should have been followed.&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula looks to the side. &ldquo;Well&hellip; yeah I guess&hellip; but I didn&rsquo;t-&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak interrupts him before he could say anything further. &ldquo;Have you ever heard the story of the wolf who cried man?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;The&hellip; what&hellip;?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Long ago when animals were beasts and man still human, there was a young wolf who lived with his pack, he would often get bored and one day decided to pass the time by playing a trick on his pack members. &lsquo;A man a man! I saw him, he had guns and traps and means to kill us all for our fur! We should run before he gets here!&rsquo; Everyone in his pack panicked, and prepared for the worst, but no hunters came. The pack became angry at the young wolf and tried to lecture him, but their warnings fell upon deaf ears for the young wolf was too busy laughing at their foolishness of believing him that he could not hear what they had to say.<br /><br />Sometime later the young wolf decided to do it again. &lsquo;A man a man! I saw a hunter coming this way! He&rsquo;s come to skin us and take our fur&rsquo; once again his pack prepared for the worst only to have nothing come. The young wolf thought himself rather witty, as he was able to fool his pack twice now with the same prank.<br /><br />Then one day when the young wolf was out he saw some hunters with guns and traps, he returns to his pack to warn them. &lsquo;Men! Men! I saw them, the smell of their guns is terrible and their traps as so frightening! We need to get as far away from them as we can!&rsquo; But because his warning was so similar to his pranks he had been playing no one believed him, and not a single wolf did anything about it.<br /><br />The young wolf went off on his own running as far as he could, hoping that his pack would follow after realizing that he was gone, but they never did. When he returned to see if they were all right all he found were their bloody skinned remains, all of them having been killed by the humans that he had tried to warn them of.&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula is sickened to hear this. &ldquo;What!? Why would they take their fur? What is the point to that! What a stupid story! No one would kill anyone else just to take their fur.&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak seems rather frustrated. &ldquo;The moral of that story just went right over your head didn&rsquo;t it?&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula lets out a shudder, the whole scenario weird. &ldquo;I mean! Why would you do that? That&rsquo;s just&hellip; ew&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak lets out an annoyed groan as he tries to explain. &ldquo;It was a human! A human did it! Humans don&rsquo;t have fur of their own so they steal it from those that have it so that they can stay warm to survive.&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula seems even more horrified. &ldquo;What? That&rsquo;s just&hellip; No! That&rsquo;s just gross no one would really do that. Who would willingly kill someone, skin them and then wear their fur around, that&rsquo;s just! No! No one would do that&rsquo;s just disgusting!&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak raises his voice, getting straight to the point. &ldquo;Lies do more harm than good Yula!!&nbsp;&nbsp;And they have terrible consequences when they are brought to light! Even more so for an Oracle!&rdquo;<br /><br />Yula jumps back from Achak. &ldquo;Yeah&hellip; I&hellip; ok&hellip;&rdquo; He looks down toward the ground. &ldquo;But&hellip; I didn&rsquo;t lie.&rdquo;<br /><br />Achak lets out a frustrated sigh, clearly continuing to press Yula on the subject wasn&rsquo;t going to get him anywhere even if he knew that he wasn&rsquo;t telling the truth. &ldquo;Yula&hellip; Iuana has lost her father, her suitor and Tahki, who even though she did not get along with, was the strongest support she had to lean on when it came to controlling the tribes warriors in the way that her father wanted to&hellip; she is more vulnerable now than ever before so please, don&rsquo;t blurt out things like that so needlessly. Even if you have nothing but the best intentions on your mind it will not turn out good.&rdquo;<br /><br /><div class='align_center'>*******</div><br /><br />Shiya lets out a sigh as he holds the remote for Dolly&rsquo;s television in his hands, he slowly switching through channels while trying to find something to entertain him, he never having this problem when with his tribe, there always more than enough things for him to be trying to get done in a day. &ldquo;I haven&rsquo;t had this much free time since&hellip;&rdquo; He pauses thinking this over. &ldquo;Just when was the last time I had so much free time I didn&rsquo;t know what to do with it&hellip; long before becoming Raven Wolf&rsquo;s chieftain, heck, even long before joining when they were still known as Laughing Meadow.&rdquo;<br /><br />He falls back in the sofa as he thinks this over, something having occurred to him. &ldquo;I can&rsquo;t believe how old I am!&rdquo; He frowns as he continues to both think and talk to himself. &ldquo;Though, I guess that&rsquo;s normal considering the circumstances&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />A girly laughter from the television fills the air, Shiya looking up to find that he had landed on a variety talk show television program, the host talking to a very pretty equestrian actress, the white horse with a long flowing blond mane having let out an embarrassing giggle after being asked a question by the host. &ldquo;No, honestly I didn&rsquo;t think when taking the roll as the character that the series would have so many fans well outside the targeted age and gender range, when Shera Pegasus of Power was first pitched it was intended to be a show with a strong female lead that young girls could use as a positive and empowering role model. Don&rsquo;t get me wrong though I&rsquo;m so happy with and appreciate all the fans of the show!&rdquo;<br /><br />Shiya perks his right ear towards the screen, he recognizing that actress from the show that Kit, a boy that he had taken care of for a short time, had always watched and most always talked about every chance he got. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s the young woman that plays that character Kit keeps pronouncing my name as.&rdquo;<br /><br />The host of the talk show begins to wrap up the program. &ldquo;As much as I would like to continue that&rsquo;s all the time I have for today.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Oh? How unfortunate, I had an absolutely lovely time talking with you.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Is there anything you would like to say to our viewers before we go?&rdquo;<br /><br />The actress shakes her head no. &ldquo;Oh no, no worries.&rdquo; She stops smiling for a moment. &ldquo;Oh! Wait I do have something to say.&rdquo; She smiles as she turns towards the camera. &ldquo;A long time friend of mine was wounded recently, I don&rsquo;t know if he&rsquo;s watching the program or not, but I would still like to wish him a healthy return and hope him the best.&rdquo; She waves her hand at the camera in a friendly manner. &ldquo;So get better soon alright!&rdquo;<br /><br />Shiya stares at the screen, though by all logic it was clear she wasn&rsquo;t referring to him it still for some reason felt like her well wishes had been meant for him, possibly because he found himself in this unfortunate situation. &ldquo;Yeah&hellip; I&rsquo;ll get better as quickly as possible.&rdquo;<br /><br />The front door to the apartment opens and Dolly comes storming in, Shiya instinctively moving back from her when she fixes him with a glare upon entering, Dolly starting to vent her frustration out on him shortly after coming home. &ldquo;I can&rsquo;t believe I&rsquo;m doing this! I should just turn you in and then I wouldn&rsquo;t have to worry so much about my companions like this!&rdquo; She lets out a heavy sigh as she takes a seat at her table, laying her head down on it and letting an aggravated moan. &ldquo;Then again&hellip; if I turned you in it would only help out Alistair&hellip; and I can&rsquo;t stand him&hellip; Chase, Kane and Vaan would all still be in trouble&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Shiya seems afraid to question her on what she was talking about, he eventually going against his better judgement and asking. &ldquo;Did something happen?&rdquo;<br /><br />Dolly nods her head yes. &ldquo;The super soldiers were all appointed targets and then given two weeks to capture them&hellip; if they can&rsquo;t do it then General Dmitri is going to have them destroyed.&rdquo;<br /><br />Shiya looks to the side, though that was unfortunate he knew that the targets the super soldiers were seeking we either him or his friends and family. &ldquo;I see&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Dolly looks back to Shiya. &ldquo;Just what is so important about you!?&rdquo;<br /><br />Shiya turns away from her opting to remain silent, Dolly pushes further, though this was a constant question she had been berating Shiya about it was more important now than ever before that he spoke up. &ldquo;The lives of my comrades are in danger and I want to know why! What is it the military sees about you that I don&rsquo;t? I know it has something to do with that ice thing you do but what exactly is it?&rdquo; She raises her voice even louder the situation serious. &ldquo;If you don&rsquo;t start saying something then I&rsquo;m going to make sure that Yula&rsquo;s vision of me severally hurting you and possibly killing you comes true!&rdquo;<br /><br />Shiya lets out a heavy sigh as he looks toward Dolly finally giving in, Dolly much more heated than usual now that the lives of her friends were at stake, and honestly Shiya couldn&rsquo;t blame her for that. &ldquo;I am one of the six sources.&rdquo;<br /></span>",
