"My wolf form," Yoruichi said, lifting her head again and cocking it slightly to one side. "She isn't just a shape I take. She has a mind of her own."

[The Kingpin]

"Ah" responded Gaara. "Any guesses as to what it might be?"..

[Hopeflower]

"I don't know," Yoruichi said truthfully with a small half-shrug. "And I'm not about to try and press Ira for answers."

There was fluttering as JoJo let his pressence known, flapping his bat like wings before folding them against his sides once more. His head was tilted to the side. Once again he had walked in on strange conversation. Apperantly, his adopted owner wasnt only a pyro mutant... she was also a shape shifter...

There was a low droning as the disguised ship slipped in and out of stealth mode. It was just at the boarder of New York city when the cloaking generator ran out of power. Galaak mumbled to himself in his native language, shaking his head. The craft sped over the city, Galaak scanning his navigations for a landing space where he could land and hide his ship. That would be his base of operations in his symbiote hunt...

[The Kingpin]

"Hmm..." responded Gaara somewhat absent-mindedly as he saw the ink dog enter the room. "What about your inky friend here? what's his story?"...

[Hopeflower]

A smile flickered over Yoruichi's lips, the young demon following Gaara's gaze to Jojo. "His owner was an animator who somehow mutated so that anything he drew came to life, or so Jojo told me when we met." In a quick movement born of habit, she tucked her hair behind her ears to keep it out of her face for the moment.

"Anything he touched" JoJo barked. He didnt mind what Blake had done to him. He took a lowly stray and created a new, limitless form for it. If he wanted to, he could send chunks of his body flying every which way just to get a scare. Maybe he would. Suddenly, the ink dog's body began to tremble. Seconds later, in what looked like an explosion, his body blew apart, splattering across the floor and walls, leaving a small puddle where he once stood....

[Hopeflower]

Yoruichi's eyes widened in surprise, her pupils contracting to slits, nearly invisible in the crimson irises. "Okaaay...that was random..." she muttered, eying the puddle and splatters that used to be the ink hound a bit warily.

[C S]

Some ink dripped from the ceiling every now and again, while splotches on the walls began running along the surface. From above a somewhat recognizable slab fell into the puddle, sending tiny droplets about. In said slab was one green eye that stared blankly away from the two mutants, part of his tongue hanging from it...

Scaletail stood in his lab, staring intently through the thick glass at his creation. Seth, now fully grown at thirty feet long, reared up on the other side of the glass, waving his head back and forth to match Scaletail's movements. "Good... good. Still as obedient as always." He tapped a switch on the side of the cage, and a door seemed to appear out of nowhere, opening to allow Seth to slither out, his wide body barely fitting. As he coiled up and flicked his tongue at Scaletail, the scientist grinned. "Yes, you are perfect... Like my own son..." He turned away and headed towards the lift back to Nebblestrix's own lab, Seth following...

Inside Havenbrook Highschool....

Kevin sat at a cream colored table with his head laying on his arms. The seat was able to swivel around and was also cream, with a black back rest. Around him were the chattering kids in the cafeteria. The floors were tiled alternating red and white, and four large columns were in the center of the room with posters and memos pasted about them. The boy, who was wearing a thin black hoodie with a red vest inside, blue jeans and red and black sneakers, heard a clatter at his table. He raised his head slightly, enough to see that his friends had put their trays down. "Wow man" Said Carter as he sat down. "You look...battered..and stuff..." He had a white T-shirt on with black jeans on.
"We heard about what happened last night, about the mutants...everyone ok?" Carmen asked as she sat down too. She had a blue long sleaved shirt with fluffs at the ends of the leaves and bright blue pants on.
"Yeah, no one was hurt, luckilly" Kevin said, sitting up. "I reached home after the chaos... my parents were worried as hell-"
"Well duh!" Carmen said suddenly. "After you were caught up with that other mutant, we've been worried too y'know!" She braced back in her chair and crossed her arms. Kevin shook his head. Secret identities suck He thought. "...Sorry" He said. She sighed. "Well atleast you didnt get hurt this time" She said, relaxing.
Says you Kevin said, resisting the urge to wince at the dull pain around his body. "Im pretty tired though" He said out loud.
"Want me to buy you lunch?" Carter offered with his mouth semi full, already eating the pizza that was served. "No thanks..." Kevin replied. "Already ate and stuff."
"K, then" Carter said, before starting to snicker. "I didnt have any extra lunch money anyway"
"... Its the thought that counts" Kevin said, trying to smile. He began to yawn, putting a hand to cover his mouth.
"You gonna make it through the day?" Carmen said, looking intently at her child hood companion.
"Ill manage." Kevin said. "Though Im gonna try to catch a few Z's now..wake me if theres a food fight, K?"
"We always will" Carter said, getting back to eating his slice.

"Lovely," Yoruichi said, pulling a face. She nodded to Gaara, closed her eyes and willed herself to morph. As always, there was that feeling of detachment - she wasn't a wolf in shape yet, but she wasn't quite human either. The usual crack and crunch of bones was audible as her skeleton adjusted to that of her animal form, making the change seem more painful than it actually was. Her eyes, though closed, were changing as well, the pupil becoming less catlike, the irises darkening to an orange that was almost the color of flame. Her face was elongating, shaping itself into a muzzle, her fangs lengthening. For the hell of it, she let out a snarl, baring her new teeth. She fell forward, unable to balance on her legs any longer, and caught herself on large paws, not hands and knees, her fingers having shrunk and been replaced with claws. Her clothes melted into a shaggy pelt that was as dark as her hair, the scars on her back partly covered by the fur but still visible. Her ears, wolf ears, twitched and swiveled as she opened her eyes. She let out a bark and gave a wolf grin, tail swishing lightly by her hind legs.

The eye in the slab shifted, turning to look at the wolf, who seconds ago was the girl he swore to himself to protect. It suddenly clicked. "So thats why..." He thought, now realizing what made him seek the girl out to begin with. Back then, he was only interested in the pressence that accompanied her own... but that was replaced with genuine care as he got to know her. The ink that was scattered about suddenly writhed, patches and splatters pooling together and converging on the puddle, which had began spiralling about, reforming. As they neared, the seperate bodies of ink shot out tendrils into the twisting mass, being pulled in, and at the same tiem changing shape as well, the dog's body and features becomming recognizable and shortly after, the ink dog- though lacking his wings was standing as he was before, looking at the wolf...

[Hopeflower]

The black wolf turned her head as Jojo reformed, nodding to the ink dog as well. She set a brisk pace for the stairs, starting down them with the intent to find Ira and just sit with her for a while.

Ira was nearing the end of her book, her head propped on one hand and her muscles relaxed. As she'd thought - the killer had been the one she'd least expected to be the killer. Strange how it still surprised her every time when she was familiar with the twists things usually took in murder mysteries...

[The Kingpin]

as the ink had splattered, a stray blob was stopped from hitting Gaara by a barrier of sand, acting like a sentient umbrella, blocking the mess. "Lovely" sighed the young man as he looked at the wolf and dog in front of him. "Maybe i should buy you two some chew toys to amuse yourselves with?"...

[C S]

JoJo's gaze turned to the sandman, nodding no. He opened his mouth, ink streams flowing into his mouth and swirling about, reforming into a dog bone. He closed his mouth and started after the wolf. Maybe this was the chance he had, to actually speak to someone other than himself...

[Hopeflower]

Yoruichi barked a negative, standing at the top of the stairs with her front paws on the one below her. She gave the man a look and a growl that said, Do it and I'll jam them down your throat, friend or not.

[The Kingpin]

Gaara smirked. "With a mood like that maybe you NEED a chew toy to let your frustrations out on......better than blowing up a house....no clean up needed" he commented, responding generally to the mood he was met with at the suggestion...

[C S]

JoJo, at the bottom of the stairs widened an eye. He understood what she said! The dog bone dissapeared, reabsorbed into his body. Once his maw was clear, he barked "Harsh. You know they are quite fun...not that I would know" His gaze shot to the side, somewhat nervous...

[Hopeflower]

Yoruichi growled a little louder, narrowing her eyes and curling her lip to expose sharp teeth. She turned away from the stairs, prowling closer to Gaara with a predator's nearly silent steps.
