"Hell if I know," Lycanthra said, taking some of the irritability out of his voice, he half smiled at Elvira, "what do you want to do?" He looked around, and then back at her, "I suppose that we could head on to this adventure thing, or we could hang around and wait for others."
"You know, the others could catch up later, if there are any others," Voice said.
"Yeah, I suppose that you're right," Lycanthra said aloud. Quickly realizing that he did, he blushed slightly and turned away. "Sorry," he said quickly, "It's a thing."

Elvira wasn't sure which surprised her more, the fact the Lycanthra had just smiled at her or that he had blushed. So there is something interesting under there, she mused. Elizabeth chuckled knowingly, "Come little Elvira, " she murmured, "the adventure will start soon enough, you might as well enjoy yourself until it does." Elvira smiled, Elizabeth wasn't so bad, she decided. "All right," Elvira glanced around, and noticed a path that led into the busier center of the Capitol City. Elizabeth stirred slightly, excited about something. Elvira shrugged, "Why not?" she muttered and then turned back toward Lycanthra to suggest going farther in and looking around when her shoe caught on a root sticking up out of the ground. She fell with a loud splash into a puddle of muck. Feeling her face heat up Elvira sighed angrily as Elizabeth burst into hysterical laughter.

Lycanthra barely had time to react as Elvira somehow managed to hurl herself into a nearby puddle. In a blink, he was crouching atop a roof a few buildings over. Once again, he was halfway smiling.
"Man, you really like her," Voice laughed.
"She's funny," Lycanthra stated flatly, "I enjoy watching funny people abuse themselves without meaning to,"
"Whatever you say," voice snickered. Lycanthra flitted to another rooftop, this one directly overlooking Elvira's landing point. He smiled inwardly, teleportation was so useful. Leaning over to get a better view of Elvira's watery predicament.
"Hey, you mind trying not to get me wet?" Lycanthra asked sarcastically

Elvira grumbled as she pulled herself up, and then groaned loudly in annoyance. She was drenched from head to foot and she knew the muck would never come out. "Sure, no problem!" she yelled back up at Lycanthra who was still standing on top of the roof, probably laughing his head off. She sheilded her eye's and glanced up at him, shrugging, she swept her hand toward the center of the Capitol City and it's many stores. "I have something we can do now!" She shouted up at him, grinning for reasons even she didn't understand. Elizabeth was gasping for breath laughing so hard.

Lycanthra stared vacantly down at her, he really had no idea what she was talking about, but something in the back of his head told him that it was only going to end in tears, metaphorically of course. Still something is better than nothing, and right now they had nothing to do. So with a heavy sigh, he flitted down beside her. "What did you have in mind?"

Elvira stared at him, her eyebrows arched in disbelief, and then down at herself. "I need to grab some new clothes real quick...You can go kill some more merchants while I do if you'd like." She grinned, "Not that my opinion matters, you'd do whatever you wanted anyways."

Lycanthra thought for a minute, smirking at her sarcasm, "You catch on fast," his smirk faded and he frowned slightly, "no, I'll come in with you if you want, just don't take all day, okay?" In the back of his head, he could almost hear Voice's jaw drop.

Elvira's grin widened, "Me? Take all day? No way! There's still to much havoc to do in this city for me to waste my time trying to look pretty." She snorted at the thought of actually trying on a dress (yuck) and then laughed at her own rhyme. Elizabeth was silent, and she could feel Elizabeth's surprise at the menace in Elvira's words. "What?" she murmured low enough that Lycanthra hopefully couldn't hear, "Can't I have a little fun to? Druid's don't have to be perfect."
She beckoned for Lycanthra to lead the way into a nearby store so they could get this over with. "I promise to watch out for any more puddles." She teased.

Lycanthra smiled inwardly, but let no such emotion be shown on his face. She wasn't all that bad, really. He glanced at her, looking her over for the first time. She was attractive, just slightly taller than him with long curly black hair. Her eyes were icey blue, the kind that could stare directly into the soul, it seemed, and her skin was delicate and near white.
Ly turned away and examined a nearby shelf and the items being stored upon it. He nonchalauntly picked up a pair of gloves and quietly placedthem within his jacket pocket. He smiled, old habits really do reappear.

Elvira watched as Lycanthra slipped something into his pocket but left it alone. Looking around the store she grabbed a belled long sleeved shirt and a pair of pants, both a shade of grayish black. Then on second thought she also grabbed a pair of black gloves from over where Lycanthra was standing and took them over to the counter.
The merchant, a small, beady eye'd woman watched them shrewdly, and the way she was staring at Lycanthra gave Elvira the feeling that the woman knew what he was up to. As Elvira placed her items in front of her she noticed the woman grab a knife from behind her back but never had the chance to throw it because at that moment, anger flaring, Elvira felt her power burst like a fire and without thinking she made a huge tree sprout out of the ground right over a table holding a expensive looking vase. Then she shot a vine from the tree at the woman and whipped the knife out of her hand. Elvira threw some money onto the counter, ignoring the hag's screams of pain and fury, and then picked up her items and left the store. Her anger began to simmer down, but she was still seeing red so she sat down in a small alcove.

Lycanthra blinked as Elvira bound the sales clerk with her magical vines. "Didn't see that coming..." Voice speculated, "This ones almost as spontaneous as you."
"Yes, but she seems to have more of a temper about her," Lycanthra mused.
"True, you're more of a calm and cold person when you become angered," Voice said.
"So are you," Ly shot back, "which is probably why I am."
"Touche," Voice laughed and then was silent.
Lycanthra pocketed some more items of interest from the store and walked over to the lady enthralled by the Druid's vines.
"You'll never get away with this," she spat, "When I get out I'll contact the authorities and the'll find and kill you and your friend," she smiled darkly at that, waiting for Ly to respond. Lycanthra just smiled and put his hand to her cheek, stroking it lightly as his smile slowly bacame more sinister in appearance.
"No, I don't think that you will," he all but whispered as he tensed the muscles in his hand and extened his claws to thier full length of about two feet. The sharp bone sliced through the clerk's head like a knife through a pumpkin. Her body imeidiatley went completly limp as he slid her skull off of his talons. Wiping the blood off of them with a nearby shirt, he proceded to walk outside. His claws glinted black as he retracted them back into his fingers.
Strolling outside, he located Elvira and tossed some coins to the ground in front of her, "Got your money back," he smirked.

"Thank you." Elvira answered, her anger nearly gone. She smiled up at him, but it was a slightly twisted smile. "Sorry about that, she had a knife..." Elvira stood up, frowning, for once Elizabeth was just quietly watching her instead of doing anything annoying. "I'll be back," Elvira murmured as she picked up the money and walked the short distance over to the bathrooms. Once inside she quickly changed clothes and re-strapped on her armor and went back out to join Lycanthra. People were beginning to converge on the shop keepers store and Elvira could hear shouts. "So..." She glanced around, at a loss as to what they should do, " what now?"

Lycanthra shrugged, "To be honest, I really don't know," he smirked, "there's not much of a script to this story," he said, looking up slightly as he did.
"Hey, I'm doing the best that I can," Voice mumbled.
"Yeah, well that's not saying much..." Ly snorted under his breath.
Just then, a frightened looking peasant came running down the street. Ly caught him by the arm as he tried to dash past them.
"Hey, what's the rush?" Ly demanded.
"There's some sort of monster attacking the city!" the man exclaimed.
"Now that's more like it," Ly smiled darkly, "Where is it?"
The man, too shakin for words pointed towards the southern entrance of the city and, shaking his arm loose, continued to run away.
"Now that was fortunate," Ly smiled, lending a hand to help Elvira up.
"You're welcome," Voice huffed.

"Thanks." Elvira took his hand and stood up then turned to the southern entrance, suddenly interested. More people were running now and she could hear screaming in the direction the peasant had pointed. Elvira let her power trickle through her and laughed happily at the feeling of exhileration that it left behind. Elizabeth arched an eyebrow behind Elvira's eye's but she was smiling, pleased with how untroubled Elvira was beginning to be. Elvira grinned at Lycanthra, " This is the most fun I've ever had." and Elizabeth laughed out right, a slight mock in her voice, "That's because you've never allowed yourself to use so much power." Elvira felt a slight frown twitch on her mouth, not understanding. Elizabeth explained, "Everytime you use your magic you grow stronger and that feeling always brings one pleasure." the frown disappeared but she still felt that what Elizabeth said wasn't completely true, still there was no time to dwell on it. Something interesting was finally happening and she wasn't going to miss out on it. Grabbing Lycanthra's arm she tugged lightly on it, teasingly pulling him forward and laughing as she did. "Come on, let's have some fun!"

Lycanthra stopped himself from being pulled further, a wild look flashed in his eyes, "You are so slow," he grinned, "the creature will have died of old age by the time we get there," he smiled and moved in front of her. Grasping her wrist so that it wouldnt break, he began to run, moderatly at first, and then cut into a sprint. The speed is what Ly lived for, the rush was who he was. He narrowly dodged oncoming civilians as easily as if he were wlaking slowley. A wall up ahead posed as an obstruction in their path. He heard Elvira grunt in suprise as he lept upon the building with ease, landing smoothly, he then proceded to jump from rooftop to rooftop. The city was a colored blur, flying past everything like a bullet, they stopped as quikly as they had been moving. Ly carefully put Elvira down on the roof beside him, the monster was visible below, a few meters ahead of them, "What did you think of that?" he asked her.
