As Sachi was set free, she started to realize how she would immediately be caught if seen parading around in this form. Not only would she be caged, she could also get this guy in trouble too. Recalling the previous wolves, she knew her only way of escaping flawlessly was to find her inner human... If that made sense. And as the two ran along, she tried hard and the illusion came to be. She now looked like a convincing young woman with nearly white hair. That should do it.
As the two continued making their way through the market, she couldn't help but feel exposed. She had only tried the illusion once before in her younger days, but was always found out by other animals. Sachi began to wear the look of anxiety as this thought lingered, and tripped. She couldn't afford this now, and just as quickly as she had fallen, she got right back up and anxiously ran to Etsuko's side once more.
"We should really hurry.." she whimpered quietly, feeling vulnerable once again. And she couldn't wait to see the outside world once more.

The brothers were through with their wrestling, and were bored once more. While Hahaku took his brother's place by the wall, Kohaku paced around, finally deciding to approach a fountain nearby. It was hot out here, so might as well sneak a drink as he so desired. As he approached the fountain, a child quickly bolted across his path, and the spooked twin would scream slightly, nearly howling in rage afterwards. "What's the matter?" Hahaku chuckled nearby. Kohaku just rolled his eyes and finally arrived at the old fountain. He dipped his hands in the cold water, cupped them, and took a drink.
But he couldn't help but look at his reflection. He could see his true form hiding within him. A sigh was emitted from his lungs.
Quite frankly, he was tired of hiding. He was a wolf and was proud of that. So why was he hiding within the figure of a monster? Remembering the rumors of the holding center, we found himself wanting to help his kin there.
"Stop dreaming. One day, we'll be free," he mumbled to himself and continued to glare at the water.
(crap post. Better than nothing. ;u;)
