Eris trudged down the dirty street her apron held tightly in one hand. It was just another day, one more set of hours she would work through.

Staring up at the restraunts dim sign she sighed approaching the glass doors.

Inside was as always, regulars sipped coffee reading magazines or newspapers. A couple rangled their kid in a booth. Mort was behind the window cooking up the newesr order with a small smile.

Aerith was already inside checking her pockets for all the necessities, Straws, pens, extra napkins. Eris pushed open the doors and braced herself for the greetings.

Vishous' heart pounded in his chest. He could smell fear not far ahead of him. He didnt want to spook the wolf, but if approached slowly, he knew she would run. He dematerialized a few feet infront of her and instantly got down onto his knee.

"Dont run." He said, looking into her almost silver eyes. "I mean no harm. Im am here to help."

Aerith tried to hide her horror when Rhage appeared. She hadnt figured he would dematerialize directly into her room. She was in the same wrinkled clothes as lastnight. She was so exhausted when she got home she crashed without thinking. What did her hair look like?

Aerith shook her head trying to clear her head. She shouldnt worry about what she looked like. Rhage couldnt care.

Regardless, she ran her fingers through her hair. "I was actually hoping that you could help me find her." She said.

She caught scent of her breath and winced. "Im so sorry. I need a moment."

Aerith didnt wait a second before launching herself off the bed and into the bathroom. She wanted to screech at the woman looking back at her in the mirror. She ran her brush through her dark tangels and gargled some mouthwash before stepping back into her room.

Eris could hardly open her eyes as she woke from what seemed like an eternal sleep.

Pulling herself from the damp earth she tried to shake the dew that had settled in her fur. It forest was dark now, and it was time to move it before something found her.

Rhage dematerialized to the addy with the phone in his hand still. Snapping his phone shut he smiled as Aerith jumped.

"I need to ask about your friend."

Once she had turned to face him he tried to not look as big and an intimidating as he was usually.

"We need to locate her, make sure there aren't more of her around." Rhage felt a little guilty making the wolf sound so...violent.

Vishous decided to not spend his night off at his penthouse like he usually would. He would start his search for the wolf, instead.

But he had no clue where to look. He didnt even know what form she would be in. He strapped in his holsters and loaded up his weapons. When he stepped into the main room in the pit, butch stopped him.

"Whats doing?" He asked. "I didnt see you at all this morning."

Vishous wasnt sure he should tell butch about the wolf. He would just press to come along. "Nothing, man." He shrugged. "Im going hunting tonight, though. So Ill see you later, true?"

He walked out before his best friend could ask anymore questions.

When he was outside he dematerialized to the edge of the forest that ran along 20.

Aerith let out the breath the didnt realize she was holding. She gave him her address without thinking. She could trust him right? He was apart of the brotherhood.
