"That's alright. I don't mind going alittle slower. They didn't give us a time limit. What kind of animal are you interested in? I don't think I'll be able to find mine here so I was thinking that might have to travel abit. If that's the case we can start with the closest and work towards he animals that are further away. I have my VW bus. I can probably comfortable seat six of us. So anyone who wants to can come with me."Katherin explained.

Alex had been walking for a while now and the forest looked even darker and ominous he stepped on a branch making him jump at the sudden noise and a large shadow sped among the bushes he crouched reading himself to escape or tame the potential animal companion he heard a growl and quickly turn around and saw nothing assuming that the animal was a predator he readied himself to either run or try to fend it off if the option one was not doable.

Katherin headed towards her VW bus. She hoped that some people would follow her. She had a feeling that this would be a lot easier if they worked together. But she wouldn't be surprised if the others wanted to work alone. What kind of future god or goddess admitted that they needed help? One who believed they had to prove their strength. She didn't feel like she had to prove that. Atleast not yet.

Alex had been slowly been backing up to where he thought he came from he was worried he didn't like the feeling of something hunting him. his back suddenly hit a tree "oh no" he thought suddenly a tiger jumped out from a near by bush, Alex dived out of the way the tiger making contact with the tree Alex began sweating "What do I do" his mind raced the Tiger began circling him assessing him. The animal must have come from a near by zoo or something Alex was sure that their was no wild tigers in America his eyes scanned for a chance to escape.

Ashley followed the redhead to her van, sneaking glances at the other attendees. He was uncomfortable to say the least, being thrown into a strange situation with no prior information. However that was the least of his concerns, considering the fact that he was apparently hallucinating. Everywhere around him he saw ghosts that no one else seemed to see. He could see old people in hospital gowns, malnourished children, camouflaged soldiers with bullet holes in their chests, and countless other specters haunted his vision. Ignoring them the best he could, he climbed into the car with the unknown girl.

Aeon sat and continued watching everyonbe through the boy's eyes. It only would take some time till a owl came to him. He sat back and simply waited. He tried to get in contact with the other gods. He chuckled to himself watching the mortals compete. Once this boy one, he will take over his body.
David said to the group. "Its nce you meet you all. I..I cant believe this is happening."

Catch an animal? Kyle thought. What animal represents freedom? Then it dawned on him, an eagle. Sure, it could just be because it was the symbol of America, AKA, "the land of the free.", but the just seemed so free to him, not having to care about the rest of the world's problems while they soared through the skies. Yes, they would make the perfect animal. Unfortunately, in the US Eagles, at least bald Eagles, are an endangered species which meant that there were strict rules about owning them. Getting the proper permits would take to long. He'd have to just befriend one and have it follow him long enough to pass the test, then let it go free. At least that way, he wouldn't risk hurting it or its species survival chances.

Checking the internet on his phone, he found that they were actually on the border of their breeding areas. Seeing that they liked to breed and live around large lakes he got in his car and set his GPS to look for the nearest one. Luckily, they were within a few miles, so he cracked the car and headed there, stopping just to pick up some fresh fish at a store near the lake.

"What kind of animal do you want? I am trying for the goddess of winter so I need a winter animal. We will have to go up north to get mine. I think Alaska maybe. I am thinking a Snow fox." Katherin asked as she climbed into her van. She opened the passenger door for the man who decided to join her.

Ashley shrugged at the question. "Truthfully, I don't know. My meeting was a bit... strange, to say the least. I think that i should pursue the domain's of Death and War, but I'm not sure." Ashley replied, wincing as more specters began gathering around the van. They didn't seem to be doing anything aggressive, nor did the woman seem to notice them. Sighing, Ashley strapped himself in, and tried to make himself comfortable as the hollow eyes of the dead burrowed into him.

I was hoping to get the God of Time. That would mean I would need to find a owl. That should be so hard to find." David said to everyone. "I wonder why the gods vanished. Its just weird powerful beingslike them can vanish."
Aeon closed his eyes, and let out his aura to the boy. It would be invisible to all humans, but not animals. The owl should come to the boy soon.

"I dont know what animal symbolizes war. Maybe a horse? But for death all I can think of is a vulture. You will have to pick something I think but I guess we can start with mine."Katherin offered as she pulled onto the road. She didnt know where she needed to go except north. She was thinking an artic fox would make a good symbol for her. She wanted something from a winter area. But nothing too big.

"Perhaps, though I doubt we'll find any vultures this far north." Realizing he hadn't introduced himself yet, Ashley quickly cleared his throat, "Formal Sergeant Ashley Royce at your service." the man finished as he continue to watch the dead drift by the moving van.

David nods and said "My name is David Markova. Just a normal college student, who decided to try and help people." David said smiling at everyone, feeling nervous around them too. He wondered what they were all thinking.
Aeon sat waiting for a owl to come sense the energy coming off the boy.

Katherin laughed. "Your right. Do you want to get your vulture first?" His introduction reminded her that she hadn't introduced herself. That wasn't like her. She was usually better mannered then that. "I apologize. I guess this whole thing has made me forget my manners. I am very excited for an opportunity to do something with my life. My name is Katherin Winter. It is nice to met you."

All this time Blackmist had been standing in the back not asking a single question, Blackmist just waited and stood there with the Boy who also waited, Blackmist was heavily Cowled so his face was hidden his eyes were Grey ovals and his face pale, blackmist waited until he heard cawing of a Raven and then he looked up and saw the Raven perched in the tree he cooed to the Raven and it cooed back he extened his fingure and he put some seed in his palm and it flew to his shoulder.

"Your turn Boy!"

Blackmist rasped at the boy in a deep hallow tone.
