Things that go bump (Caits and Crawkid)

She chuckled at his responce but quieted down, though did not stop smiling, when he mentioned Bessie. "Yeah...won't she be surprised? And your old partner won't have to worry about maybe having to kill me."

She sat back, and relaxed for the rest of the ride, though she did keep her eyes on the rear view mirror, just incase. She was glad to be going back, no matter what danger was following them or waiting for them at their destination.

Well, his first plan was to enter quickly as the door opened, but he realized he would be noticed as the kid bowed. So, the ferret spirit was shut out again as the door closed, prompting the little guy to sigh. How was he going to get in now? He came out of the tuft of grass and looked the house over. It wasn't long after that the kid let off a gust of wind, and blew a piece of paper out the window.

He looked at it before smiling to himself. The boy didn't have windows? running over and gathering the paper, he gave it a little scan. it was about his kind, and some old historical notes at that. Was he studying the old ways? That would explain a few things.

After waiting a moment, Allendrois heard the activity die down. Taking his chance, he climbed up and peeked through the window. the place was organized again, he imagined it was a pretty bad mess before, judging by the gust that went through earlier. But he still stayed, at least until Jin left the room.

He took his chance and quickly climbed through the window, jumped down onto the floor, and found a place to hide just in case he was heard. After a moment of nothing, he slowly started to snoop around, making his way over to the documents. Shifting human, he returned the piece of paper to the piles of similar papers, sat down, and used his powers to bend the moonlight just enough to have some light to read through the papers.

He was up a good portion of the night, looking through what appeared to be hand written notes. Eventually both the lack of sleep and the use of his magic took their toll on him and he yawned. Lazily stacking the notes back into what he thought was probably their place, he shifted back into ferret mode and wandered around, until he found Jin's pile of clothes. Tired enough to not be picky, and not quite be aware of how things will go down in the morning, he made himself a bed, covered himself, and went to sleep.

Once he was sure the human had gone far enough to not be seen or heard, Allendrois popped out of the bush again. And for the first time in a long time, he reverted to hi other form - that of a human. The golden bangles on his wrist jangled quietly and melodiously as he drew his fingers through his long hair in order to make sure it wasn't too messy.

Once he was satisfied, he bent down and grabbed the package, being mildly annoyed how he had to drag such a thing as a rodent. But he remembered a lesson that the elder woman had taught him, and in her memory he sighed and relaxed a little. Be grateful for what you have, he could hear her gently reminding him, at least you weren't born as a mouse spirit. Or a frog spirit even, he sneered. How unlucky he would have been to be such a small creature with his abilities. He would never get anything done outside of his human form.

Speaking of his abilities, he could just feel the outside wisps of the boy's power, and it felt like excitement. He smiled slightly. Even if this doesn't turn out to be the one, Allen will at least have fun with him.

Now, back to business, Allen carefully opened the package the rest of the way, letting the wrapping fall to the ground. With a sigh on contentment, he bit into the first acorn cake. "Mmm...haven't had one of these since the councilwoman made them for us.."
Holding it his his mouth, he grabbed the next one in the stack and began ripping it up and dropping it on the ground for the other animals to enjoy it. He smiled more as all sorts of critters slowly began to ease their way into the clearing, picking up the food. "There you go...have a treat guys. It only comes around once a year, right?"

With the cake scattered, he finished his own and then the last one. I wonder who normally handles the package at the shrine...

Shrugging off his curiousity, but at the same time making a note to look into it if he has the chance, he slowly followed the path the boy took, his wooden sandles making their distinctive sound as he walked on the stone path - only to be silenced as he came to grass. Calmly, he followed both the trail, and the boy's scent back to the house. As he came within sight of his destination, he went back to ferret form and climbed into the nearest hiding spot he could find.

He watched for hours, and even though he found it interesting that he was reading some seriously old books, he quickly became bored of watching someone do nothing but read. At one point he got hungry and just rolled around a bit, groaning to himself. Kid...do something other than read books...please...I don't know how much longer I can sta-oh, he moved.

Shifting his position to get a better look, he can see than he had gone to make food...the smell of which was enticing to the poor hungry ferret. He groaned slightly again, but quickly shut up as the guy came out with a plate and set it in the tree. Suddenly grateful for this human's presence, his body tensed itself in wait for him to leave. As soon as the door was shut, he ran and skittered up the tree and climbed up into the hollow. He sniffed it a bit, exploring it and seeing what was on the plate. It all smelled good to him. He climbed out and onto the nearest branch, turned back into human form, and reached back down to the plate, pulling it back up to him.

While Jin dove back into his research, his research subject sat on a branch and let his legs dangle down as he shoved food into his face. Thank you, elders who made the rituals...it had been so long since I had a hot meal.

And he enjoyed every bite of it. When he was done, he looked at the empty plate. It was a shame that it was over already, but also, what was he going to do with the plate? It took some thinking, but he eventually smirked mischeviously to himself. It was time to have a bit more fun with the human. Jumping out of the tree, he ran over to the front step and, giving the plate one last clean licking, set it on his front step and left. He would watch from some tufted grass next to his door to see his reaction...maybe even try and sneak inside, he thought later on. That would be great.

Allen kept watching the human, even as they were watching back. Eventually they scooted back and bowed to him, and asked if he was a spirit. His little spark of hope showed up again, but was quickly squashed. There was still the chance to back out, not let him know by answering forth-wright.

He remained still for quite a while before he turned back to look at the shrine. He had only one chance to give humanity, and while this appeared to be a child of the elements who still knew and seemingly worshiped his people like it was described to him, the little spirit could not bring himself to trust that this was going to be the right choice.

It seemed that he was at a standstill in his mind, so he took a mental step back. Because this was the official ceremony, he had a job to do before he decided anything else. So, he decided to ignore the boy's question and get started. First he licked the egg whites and rose petals off of the outside, and nibbled away some of the basket- enough to get inside and eat the crickets. After the first couple, he peeked out and looked back at the bowing human. He finished the cricket he had in his mouth and began to think again. His mark was certainly very prominent, the biggest one he's seen so far on his travels. Seraas and their elemental were supposed to become a team, but Allen wasn't entirely sure how that would work because he was pretty sure this human had stronger magic than he did...not to mention he wasn't sure about his true nature.

He turned back to the package, finished off the crickets, and nibbled at a couple of the rose petals. Floral, but not his favorite. In his own mind, he came to a decision. He wouldn't outright answer this kid...but he would claim the package for the forest and follow him back to his home. With that, he grabbed the edge of the box and slowly drug it into the shrubs. Curse his small size for this.

Allendrois was about to ditch the place when he felt a strange wind, and heard the hurried whispering of the forest's inhabitants below.

"Smell him? Here he comes."

"Oh, its the wind kid."

"He can be a nuisance, with all that sudden wind."

"Damn, got sand in my eye."

"Hey, is that the spirit package?"

"I wanna watch, come on."

"Hurry, hurry!"

"Hush now..."

There was a spirit package?

Curious, and with a trace of hope so miniscule even he wasn't fully aware of, Allendrois sat back and and watched in the direction the wind was coming from. It wasn't long that he saw someone walking down the path. His ire was almost about to be risen, but the wind cut out suddenly and he watched as the male started sweeping silently, and with some form of precision and practice. His little ferret hackles were at rest as he watched the entire ceremony and offering be played out, and was relaxed by the humming. For a single moment, he was actually happy.

But this moment could not last. The ferret spirit was faced with an important choice. Did he answer? If he answered, the truth would be found. This would probably change their world views. They might start actually seeking out his kind, or expecting things from him. On the other hand, time was running out. This shrine was by far the best he'd seen, in terms of having been taken care of. He groaned a little ferret groan. He might not end up being worthy, but Allendrois had to try to get someone to help.

He skittered down the tree and sat at the base of it, before humming back in answer to him. It was meant to be short and meaningful, just a quick answer back was all they had needed in the past after all. Once he was done, he ran over to the package, fully intending to sit on it and give the young man a good look over. The young wind child might be the key to the future of his kind, after all.

"It's how you're acting too.." she said, kicking the seat back a bit. "Looking about is obvious, try using casualty." she smiled at him, and casually leaned on the door, looking in the mirror. "Anyways, it feels good to be going home right? Even if it might be chaos central?"

In the back of her mind, she was going over all the Deady Sins, and what it might be like if they were all going to roam about and allowed to gather their strength. The only thing she imagined though, was a collapse of society, a bunch of gangs, and too many deaths for people to handle.
