"So... what does that mean? Really...?" She asked, obviously very worried about the consequences of this operation. Was this to blame for why they felt so distant? She'd stopped herself from getting close again and he'd been stopped. Lake gasped slightly, unsure of how to really react. But you could tell she wasn't happy about the matter in the slightest as the tears in her eyes stung.
Lake quickly snapped her giant jaws at the struggling vampire. She was going to enjoy this battle, and play with her prey.
Hermia gently wiped what tears had fallen away from his face. It was a lot of information to take in a once. But one phrase stuck out most in her mind, being in a relationship with a werewolf was always going to involve death but this was different. "You had your emotions taken away...?" She asked, her voice trembling slightly. "You're kidding me...?"
Lake pressed her paw down harder and harder onto her throat. It was almost as though she was toying with her pray before destroying it.
Hermia sighed and sat down near his head. "You're AWOL?" She asked quietly, trying to sound as understanding as possible. "And what happened...?" "H-He's... He's what?" Lake said, her eyes widening and looking at him in utter disbelief. "Maybe he had to kill those people, like they were bad people who needed to be stopped."
Hermia barked dangerously at the vampire girl, as though telling her to shut up.
"I think you're getting a bit big for throwing yourself onto that poor bed." Hermia laughed weakly as she wandered into the room, shutting the door behind her. "What happened...?" She asked, sounding slight apprehensive. "What people do for their jobs isn't always a reflection of who they are you know." Ocean said, trying her best to find a way to calm her little sister down. Lake appeared in the back garden just in time to narrowly miss being kicked in the head by Jacob's feet. She jumped forwards quickly and saw Mickey. She wandered over to him, the look on his face concerning her deeply.
As Blaise and River faced down Hermia charged up behind him. She sprung off of a log and crashed straight onto Blaise. She snarled darkly, the venomous hatred in her eyes visible even in wolf form.
"I really don't know what to believe." Ocean sighed, putting her arm around her sister to try and comfort her. "He did join an army after all..." "Sounds like someone had a bad day..." Lake sighed, moving to get up to go see what River was so upset about. But she stopped just as she was about to rise from her seat. "I'll go check on him Lake..." Hermia said, jumping to her feet. "Maybe you should go and ask the other's what happened?" She suggested as she headed up the stairs. "Good idea." Lake nodded, promptly disappearing with a loud crack as she disapperated.
OOC- Yay for Hermia XD The she-wolf took off straight after him, her speed just a slight slower then his. Speed had never been her strongest point, and her legs couldn't carry her quite as far between steps. The fight was on, the final battle. The deciding moment. Ocean took off into the woods after them, her bag slung around her back and her wand ready for action. As she was the only one who really had an expertise in healing she figured she'd been needed more up on the front line then anywhere else.
"Well..." Ocean didn't really know what to say, she'd never even told her sister about her job. Sure she was a healer, but she was a healer in a tactical force unit for the Auror office. She'd handled her fair share of kills in the last year or two that she'd been there. "I don't really know..." She settled on, chickening out. Meanwhile back at home Hermia and Lake were sat around in the living chatting about typical girly things such as hair and make up. Lake was trying her hardest to keep Hermia's mind off of more serious matters, like the state of her relationship. In Lake's mind Hermia was far too depressed, even considering everything. So she was going to do whatever she could to keep her occupied.
OOC- I don't mind, I think she'd enjoy it though XD Hermia's hackles rose futher, her growl deepening. This was the first time any of them would of seen her fight to her full potential.
"Bye River." Jacob said, not looking towards the man whom he was addressing in fear of seeing the angry faces of the family. "You okay Elly...?" Ocean asked, walking over to her sister.
Hermia quickly rose to her feet and leapt over to River's side. Her upper lip pulled upwards in a dark snarl. Ocean scrambled to her feet and disappeared into the tent quickly, grabbing a bag and her wand from the porch-like section of it. There was the sound of ripping fabric as Lake transformed straight into her large golden wolf form. She wasn't letting this fight go by when she could help.
"Maybe you should go home..." Ocean suggested quietly. "The drive will give you time to calm down..."
Hermia's head snapped over to where River was looking, her hackles rising slightly.
Ocean sighed slightly, well the emotion thing certainly explained an awful lot about his behaviour. And it suddenly called a lot of new problems into focus. "River..." She said quietly, almost as though she couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"It's just a waiting game, unfortunately." Ocean sighed as she sat down besides Hermia, patting her head gently. Hermia wagged her tail slightly, she didn't mind the odd pat. And seeing as she'd spent so long as a wolf recently it'd become almost like a pat on the back. Just so long as there was no belly rubs she was fine.
Jacob continued to swing, humming slightly to try and drown out the noise of the argument.
Hermia nodded at Cadey's point, making a small whine in agreement. This military correctness and effectiveness was somehow even worse then the wild animal she'd been worried he'd turn into. At least that would of been interesting. This had been over a week of boring strategy and barking orders.
