The door opened and a young man stepped in. He was a classic nerd. He stood maybe 5'8 with mousy brown hair. He had think black glasses. "Hello everyone." He greeted them in a nasally voice. "My name is Sean. I...um...am Vlad's assistant. He will not be rejoining you for a couple of days. Umm...during that time I will be in charge. Now...ummm...I know you and Vlad got off to a bad start. He isn't the most likeable man. But he had a good idea here. Today we are going to do a practice mission."

Lucifer crosses his arms which are seemingly covered with scars of varying lengths and sizes. Some seem as concise as the autopsy scars others seem more like knife wounds. He looks rather unamused as he waits for this new 'boss' to continue. His expression though seems more bored. He can smell isa in here and hopes the guy doesn't cause more problems. After all, harming team mates is generally frowned upon.

@KatherinWinter@BlackPanther@Tracyarmav
Savannah listened to Sean speak in a voice that annoyed her to no end. The guy sounded as if he hadn't blown his nose in 30 years. She looked around the room and saw the uninterested expressions of the others, particularly one scary looking man with tons of scars. She wondered what those were from. . .
She wanted Isa to show himself in his tiger form so she could learn from him. She didn't really know much about that side of her but she figured that she had to learn from someone and who better to learn from than someone who had the same half? She wondered what this "mission" was about but whatever it was, she hoped she didn't get stuck with people who didn't know what they were doing.

@BlackPanther@Alina13@HaleyTheRandom@Tracyarmav
"You must learn to work together in both human and animal forms. Sometimes one or more of you will be in animal form while the others remain human. You will learn how to control your transformations. You will need to figure out a way o communicate with though who are in those who are in the opposite form you're in." Sean explained to them. "Today you will ork on that with Isa in Altight form you will use your skills to find Roxy. She has been hidden in the facility."

@Tracyarmav@KatherinWinter@BlackPanther
Savannah looked on in amazement when she saw the full grown Siberian Tiger, just like her, pad up to the group and sit so majestically in front of them. Suddenly, she found herself changing into her tiger form as well. She locked eyes with Isa as she changed and felt her whole body rush full of exhilaration. She was going to win this competition and find Roxy if it was the last thing she did. She wanted to earn Isa's respect and show the others that she wasn't just a fragile little girl.
When she was fully changed, she sat down in front of Isa facing him and wondered what he though of her. .

Lucifer looks at the two tigers and groans. "I hate cats" the snarl rips through him and he stands storming off. Screw them he can track rich on his own with his own nose and his own tracking abilities. He inhales deeply and pauses before crouching down and following what he thinks is roxy'a scent.

Savannah looked on after Isa, being very thankful to have another cat in her presence. If she could be any animal in the world, she wouldn't pick anything else. She loved being a cat. As she looked after Isa, she could tell he was very focused and she was almost tempted to follow him. She decided that it wasn't a good idea because she didn't know how he would take teamwork.
She exited the doors of the Jungle Room and took a left, making sure to open her mouth wide to test the air for any new scents. Out of her peripheral vision, she glimpsed Lucifer a small distance away with his nose to the ground attempting to track Roxy as well. Dogs really are inferior to cats. Maybe it wont be me, but some other animal will find her long before he will. That's what happens to ones with such a big ego. . . Savannah thought. She never had liked dogs, as a human or in her animal form. She had owned one dog she had loved, a border collie. And she figured that was because she acted like a cat.
She scanned the area around her and noticed that Isa had disappeared. Then she had a thought. The others were all moving around trying to track Roxy's scent but that wouldn't work because she would always be in a different place. They would never be able to catch her in one place. Savannah decided to be smarter than that. She would find a tree with a decent amount of foliage and hide there to wait for Roxy and ambush her.
Feeling confident in her new found plan, Savannah padded off to find a worthy tree.

@BlackPanther
Roxy scent was everywhere. It was like the guards had waled he around the facility to add to the difficulty of the quest. It would be hard to figure out which trais were newer because the trails laid over one another. Finding her this way woukd be hard.
@Tracyarmav
While the guard said Roxy was with Vlad he didn't indicate if that was her current location. After all there would e little hallenge if Roxy was that easy to find. In the medbwy Vlad would be sitting in a semi-reclined position. He grinned at them. "Looking for something?"

Lucifer gets frusterated and pauses. If he wanted to do this alone he would need stronger senses. This would require his wolf form...however his trigger seems to be anger. He pauses then sighs. He lets out a short frusterated woof and starts pacing. The new girl and isa seemed able to shift so easily and all he could do is have extreme senses and claws. He growls and stops pacing. He snaps his fingers and willingly forces himself into a memory. Bones start to audible break and crack as he forces himself to get angry... To change. Of course, he takes a bit longer then the others to change.
About half an hour give or take, lucifer stands in his large dire wolf form. He snorts and starts flexing everything as if checking to make sure he was fully shifted. Once satisfied he starts sniffing again. In his wolf form it is slightly easier for him to pick out fresher scents. Once he finds what he thinks is the freshest he woofs and starts following that.

@KatherinWinter@Tracyarmav
As Savannah searched for the perfect tree to rest in, she realized that she had never met Roxy before. All she could do was make sure to have her pallet wide open for any new scent, no matter who's it was. As she scanned her surrounding area, she found a tree that she thought would suffice for her plan. This was her favorite part.
She unsheathed her claws, gathered her strength in her hindquarters and sprang off the ground a good 13 feet in the air to the nearest branch and clawed her way up. She loved looking down on the world below her. Maybe she would catch something. . .

@Tracyarmav
This idea could either make me look really smart or really stupid. I could be sitting here forever if everyone else has already found her and make myself look ridiculous when I come strolling up. Or, I could be the first one to catch her moving and ambush her on the spot! That would make me look like a pro. I bet no one else would suspect her to come to the place where we all started. I hope this pays off. . .
She heard Isa snarling a little ways away and wondered what he was so upset about. She bet it was because of that wolf boy. He didn't seem right, in a rather unnerving way. He constantly looked as if his best friend had betrayed him or someone ran over his cat. Wait, He didn't like cats. Savannah thought in a mocking tone. Who in their right mind wouldn't like cats? How is that even possible?
Just then, as she broke out of her thoughts, she saw something move in the brush in the corner of her eye. She hopped up a couple more branches to try and get a better view but the leaves would not budge. She did not want to leave her post but she couldn't help but wonder what that noise was. Was it Roxy?

@BlackPanther
The trial Lucifer found was one of the fresher ones. It would lead him down the hall towards the med bay. The scent trails crossed each other several times. But finally he found two rooms filled with cages. The cages were empty. But the scent was strong in this room as if Roxy had spent a lot of time here. The trail would lead to the far wall of the room.

@Tracyarmav
Vlad smiles as he saw Isa head off. He knew that they would not have an easy time accomplishing this mission. They were too independent. They would refuse to work together. Already three of them had shifted. Technically they had failed the mission by not practicing communicating. Still it was early and they had only just started.

@Alina13
The sound that Savannah heard was a sun bear. One of the many natural animals that Vlad had brought in to make his environments as real as possible. There would be many jungle sounds around her.

@KatherinWinter
Lucifer cautiously follows the trail his ears back as he sniffs. He feels like this is a trap but hopefully it is not. His steps are slow as he walks forward. He eyes the cages wearily as he walks past them. He figures that they have probably failed the mission but if he finds roxy he can try howling for the others. If it is a trap then he can still try howling.

@KatherinWinter
Savannah caught a glimpse of a small body with matted brown fur and assumed it was a bear of some sorts. Because she was not having much luck being up in this tree, she thought about coming down but she wasn't sure if it would increase her chances or not. She had a feeling that she needed to start prowling the premises in order to find anything. She slowly crawled down the tree and she could feel her claws shredding the bark of the tree on her way down. She loved that feeling. When her pads met the grass of the Jungle Room, she padded over to the door and peeked out cautiously. She saw no one and heard nothing.
I wonder how long we have to find her. . . Savannah thought. Hopefully she had a little longer. She didn't want to be the one who wasted the entire period in a tree and found nothing. She opened her mouth wide so her pallet was exposed to the air and egan padding around the hallway in search of a new scent. She sensed something but she wasn't sure what it was. She decided to follow it, so she continued down the left side of the hallway, tail twitching excitedly.

@BlackPanther
If Lucifer walked around alittle he might find more then scent. In the far corner of the room there was a small button. He wouldn't be able to reach it is current form. It would be just out of his reach. This button could lead him to something. But he would need to find a way to reach it. It might be the key to completing their task.

@Alina13@Tracyarmav
"You are far far from what you seek. You aren't going to find her by wondering the halls." Vlad taunted over the PA system. He loved that they were screw this up. It should have been a simple task. He hadn't hide Roxy that hard. If they had worked together they would have worked together they should have been able to find her in a couple of hours. But none of them had listened or worked together.
