Eventually, Riyu happened upon Axel, though she only appeared as a bat. Of course, a bat during daylight hours could only ever be a vampire. She flew down, making bat sounds.
"You didn't find him?" She guessed, voice soft and worried, she looked tired from wandering the forest that whole time, but she was focused on finding Riyu's friend
She frowned but lowered her hand. "We should head back. Search when there's more light out. It's already... it's already getting dark..." Riyu's tone darkened and the girl turned away from Axel. It was a half moon- a dangerous time for vampires.
"Yeah, fine." Riyu replied, not looking at Axel. She began making her way towards the pack, and by extention towards her house. The house wasn't a home by any means, but it kept her away from the greater population on nihts like these.
Riyu heard Axel fall and turned, going back for the other girl. She knelt and offered her a hand. "It's settled. I'm carrying you," she retracted her hand before axel could take it and turned into her wolf form. This time, the transformation hurt but she did not cry out or flinch.
