A Call to Meet

[dark]

Sylar was silent for a long period of time before he lifted his head and looked over at her "So what I have to go running into the woods and kill things like every day or something?" he asked frowning "I only ever changed once though I don't even know how, I mean like I don't even really remember it was all..." he paused as blood came to mind "All kind of a blur...how do I know I could again?" he asked softly

"There's a problem though." he suddenly remembered and looked up at her his face the picture of guilt "Please don't kill me but...but um...m-my father kinda sent me to live here right? Didn't want me around the family no more....and well...I wasn't expecting to meet people like...you...well he um, kinda, he kills your species for sport and well..." Sylar paused frowning a little "If, or anyone who's like, you know, changes and his on one of those surprise visits, which I'm not saying are often but...I could have just endangered people here, especially if he's having me watched, to which theres a fifty fifty chance."

"I don't even know if that's true or not I could be keeping this place safe from hunters equally cause he might see that its good I'm around you or whatever though." Sylar finished quickly and gave a nervous smile "Better hope for the latter. Lets just say the 'Blacks' are kinda legendary in the underworld of more then just the U.S. Can't hurt to have people like that on your side." he smirked

"Ugh! Why couldn't I have been a vampire?" He pouted albet a little playfully "There so much simpler, I know just about everything about them as a whole, I used to work for a good few" he smirked

[Twilight Black]

Twilight laughed.

”No,no. Not every day. It depends on the individual…but I usually hunt once a month, and that’s good enough for me. Since your new…you might need to hunt more often though. You’ll be able to recognize when you need to hunt after a month or two. But about getting you to change again…hmmm, I have a couple ideas that might work.” Twilight said. This was going much smoother now. He seemed to be over the initial shock. It would be more difficult to teach him to change, but that would become easier with time and practice. New werewolves did the most changing in their first month.I wonder how he will come out of that epic first month, how he will change.
Problem? It seemed like there was always a problem, no matter what task it is. The news that Sylar’s father hunted werewolves was grim. In just a few moments Twilight had an image of their life here being destroyed, her pack being hurt. She would not allow that to happen. Twilight’s mouth was get in a grim line as she thought about her options while Sylar explained. I knew he was a little rich kid! Twilight thought triumphantly. It seemed that Sylars father would find them out sooner or later, and their chance that he wouldn’t try to totally annihilate them was 50/50. It was an interesting situation. Twilight chuckled to herself.

”Like I’m a good influence or something?” A wicked grin formed on her face. Well… if she was keeping him from attacking and killing humans at random, then she was a good influence. It was a funny thought though. Another interesting piece of information though… their last names were incredibly similar. Black and Blakk. Odd. Twilight tucked that useless trivia back into her mind. Blacks- underground werewolf hunters. Blakk- family with a werewolf daughter. Odd.

”Hehe, vampires are cool and all, but… I’m more of a werewolf person myself.” Twilight chuckled at his playful pout. It looked like he was finally starting to open up a bit.

[dark]

"Every month huh?" Sylar smirked thinking of a number of crude jokes but keeping his mouth shut "So other then that I can like, completely forget about it?" he asked feeling a bit happier not even knowing they were actually immortal
"Cool." He smiled"Oh god please tell me these ideas dont involve like eating me, or attacking me or nothing, I've a look to uphold you know, how else will I be able to pull strange men in bars?" he laughed

"I wouldn't say that, not after the number you did on my hair." Sylar smirked "I'm still annoyed at you for that, but you know if your nice to me I might be able to persuade him" he smirked
"Granted I know how ruthless that man can get...I-I don't think he'd kill me but the rest of you...." Sylar stopped and just have her a guilty glance "Have you seriously never heard the family name, were pretty famous. I guess I shouldn't be telling you but you know...I don't really feel like keeping the family secrets after they 'disowned' me" he smirked, but there was hurt in his eyes

"Well those vamps hated the family but I don't think they hated me" he shrugged "Hey am I going to die sooner or later cause I'm a wolf thingy?" he asked "Hmm I'd kill for a stiff drink right now"

[Twilight Black]

Twilight saw the smirk and knew what he was thinking. Lips pulled back from her teeth, exposing wicked canines.

”Full moon once a month. I have a thing for cliché’s.” Twilight rarely tolerated such an attitude from males. He was new though. She would let it slide. Her lips relaxed to normal sliding back over her teeth. At least they were making progress. Twilight wouldn’t put it past him to decide to play the part of moody teenager. I’ve got to get away from these kids for a while. She thought to herself. Twilight smiled darkly. Sylar had hit the dot on one of her ideas to get him to change. The first idea that had popped into her head was to lunge at him, attack him for real, then let his new instincts take over. That would probably send him into another asthma attack… but it would be fun. Twilight quickly advanced a few steps, almost jumped.

”I guess you’ll find out…” Twilight trailed off.

She lightened up quickly though, not wanting to scare him… too bad. A small chuckle tumbled out. His hair was in a frightful state. At least she didn’t forcefully remove any of it though. Human hair didn’t taste good though, she knew from experience. He probably wouldn’t appreciate her way of fixing it either. An image of a big, wolfy tongue rasping over his locks popped into her head. Hehe. Nice to him. Nice wasn’t the exact word to describe Twilight. She shook her head though.

”Nope. Never heard of them. My last name is Blakk, no ‘c’ and two ‘k’s… but that’s the only Black name I know of.” Twilight added thoughtfully. She racked her brain again for a memory of Blacks. Nope, nothing.

”Oh, no… You wont die. Ever. Unless someone kills you.” Twilight added seriously. Her face was straight, with no hint of humor at all.

”But, you need to hunt. And find out how to change. I have an idea…that doesn’t include attacking you. Ready to try?” Twilight was getting impatient. If she couldn’t do patrols, she could at least hunt. Oh crap… Nix… He was supposed to come. Well, maybe he didn’t hear her. Let’s hope not. If he does show up, he can track their scent. The male’s pungent odor will be easy to track at least.

[dark]

"We're not forced to change though are we?" Sylar asked cocking his head to the side and brought him inhalor to his mouth again taking a deep breat of the chemical within "Ugh, bloody ashma." he sighed "Better not be too bad" he sighed a little worried

"What?" he asked stupidly laughing a little thinking for a moment she was joking then frowned "Wait does that mean I'm gonna be like, seventeen for the rest of my li-" he broke off as his voice broke, reaching an uncanny high pitch and couldn't help blushing and shook his head before repeting the last word again "Life?"
"Ah who'd kill me? I'm too cute to kill!" he grinned childishly

"Um, no." he said honestly "But then again I don't think I'm ever going to be ready, um, wait don't I need a spare change of clothes?" he asked cocking his head to the side again with a small, brave smile

[Twilight Black]

"Not forced...but the littlest thing can trigger it if you aren't in control. Even against your will, but that all comes down to feeding too. It's much easier to control when you're feeding regularly. And don’t worry. You won’t have to worry about asthma in wolf form. You’ll be as healthy as a….well, wolf.” That was usually were normal people would replace ‘wolf’ with ‘ox’, but comparing something like a werewolf with a ox was preposterous.
She laughed uproariously at the break in his voice.
”No. You will age normally until maturity… Then stop. I was turned when I was five…” She added with a shrug. Twilight had no wish to give a little history lesson about herself, but she thought that was a good example. She chuckled once more at his mini-panic-attack. Twilight sighed. She would have to watch him until he got the werewolf part of him under control. She would better rest at ease if he would at least hunt. Twilight motioned to her own naked, except the jacket he had given her, body. Nope, no change of clothes required.

”Does it look like I brought a change of clothes.” A slightly crooked smile was on her face as she said that.

[dark]

"Yeah, I almost did in the shop the other night" Sylar frowned "That was scary"
Sylar giggled at her happily, he was kinda getting to like her "Thats a relief, but human wise, if I'm gonna live forever will I be getting over it or anything, the attacks are really annoying" he sighed

"Wow, you must know everything about being one then" he said a little surprised "So do you usually help people who'd just turned or am I special? So What's full maturity, when I get gray hair or somthing?"
"how old are you then?" he asked figuring it mustn't be that big of an insult if she was going to stop ageing

"True, but if we're going to do it now I kinda like this dress" he pouted trying to pick all the dried blood off his face "So like, how should I then?"

[Twilight Black]

Twilight nodded. It was dangerous for an unfed werewolf to be around humans, especially a new-born werewolf. She stretched, well, as much as she could with only a jacket to cover up with. He didn’t seem bothered, or even affected by it, but she was still going to be modest, if only for her sake. Twilight took a deep breath through her nose, keeping tabs on the scents of the forest while he talked. She had forgotten were she was while they were talking. It would be a good idea to keep her senses alert for any prey that might come near. If he wasn’t ready to hunt, maybe he could come along for the ride. The scent of fresh blood might trigger him to change. Nothing so far though.
”Hehe. Not everything. Just gathered information, and personal experience.” Twilight shrugged.
”Your only half special. When Nix first changed, I helped him. He’s in my ‘pack’ now.” When she said ‘pack’ she made quotes with her fingers.
” And full maturity is when you stop growing. When your body starts to degenerate, instead of grow. It depends on the individual… but I’d say about 30. That’s when our brains are fully developed. There has never been tests on this sorta thing, so maybe different parts of our body stop aging before others… I’m not really sure.” Twilight ended. She had had a similar conversation the other night, except with a vampire though.
Twilight rolled her eyes. Really? I try to avoid girly acting people. Why him? Even since high school, one of Twilight’s biggest pet peeves had been really girly girls. Man, it was like a high school nightmare all over again.

”Yeah well, take it off then. But wandering around in the woods isn’t the smartest idea.” Twilight hmphed. She took another deep breath, searching for prey. A far off scent drifted to her. Prey possibly? She would keep a nose up for it.

[Phoenix]

Phoenix was fast asleep and having an exceptionally good dream when he heard Twilight's howl. He bothered only to open his eyes for length it took him to gather his breath and then shut them again knowing full well that he should have gotten up and obeyed her call. He quickly drifted back to sleep but then in his dream Twilight's howl was echoing and was blocking out all other noises so Nix woke up five minutes later. He climbed out of his window, onto the roof, jumped onto the deck, walked down the deck stairs and headed to get the 4-wheeler in the shed. He really didn't feel like morphing but knew she would expect him there in a certain time that could not be accomplished on foot. Though the ATV was noisy, Nix's rents were in the basement watching Quantum of Solace which contained alot of loud action and probable wouldn't here him drive away.
It took Phoenix just a bit longer to arrive at the meeting place than it would have if he was in his wolf form but that was the leas of his concern at that moment because Twilight wasn't at their meeting place. It was very unnatural of Twilight to leave so shortly after her call. Still in his human form, he sniffed around for her familiar scent. He found it, but he also found another werewolf scent. A male werewolf scent. He eventually found Twilights human footprint and knew that she must have morphed. He headed through the woods in the general direction of the imprints. He grabbed the towel he had brought with him from the ATV so that when he did find her she would have something to cover up in seeing as how she was probably nude.

[dark]

Sylar smirked "Well a hell of allot more then I know, all I know is what dad's told me, which is pretty much how to kill 'em." he shrugged "That and...um....I shouldn't say" he said softly blushing a little just catching himself before he blurted out saying something that she'd probably kill him for even seeing that

"I'd say that would be an interesting profession, there's bound to be someone looking into it though." Sylar smiled and stood up, he felt a little embarrassed, she was allot taller then him and it made him feel a little out of his dept
"Ugh, that's kinda old" He sighed crinkling his nose "Still I'd hate to have my voice half broken for the rest of my life" he giggled

"Um...I'll keep it on..." He said feeling a little embarrassed and bit his bottom lip nervously "So where are we going?" he asked following close behind
"Maybe I should think of going back, its getting dark and I'll never be able to find my way home in the dark....I'm far to used to cities" he smirked awkwardly not wanting to be forced to turn

[Twilight Black]

An ATV thundered on in the distance. It was probably Nix. Why he had chosen to come with that noisy machine, she would never know. Twilight pushed that away for now though. She raised one eye brow.
"You've already started. Might as well finish your sentences." Twilight said simply. Despite what he thought, she wasn't going to hurt him for finishing whatever he started saying. Twilight had heard some pretty brutal things in her life, so this couldn't be much worse. Sure, annoyed, but she probably wouldn't hurt him for it.

Twilight chuckled. She had a thing for gathering information. As Sylar stood up, Twilight looked down at him. She had a better view of him. Twilight memorized his face. It was also easier to get his sent, putting the scent memory with his face. He was already pungent enough, so this didn't necessarily think this was a good thing. It wasn't that his scent was unpleasant, just masculine. She wrinkled her nose at the strong scent.

"Yeah, well, if anyone was doing research on us wolves, they sure as hell aren't going to say anything. And thirty is not old! Would you want to look like an adult for the rest of your adult life, so some shrimp in high school?" Twilight said bluntly again.

Twilight stopped. He would need her help to get home. She was counting on that to get him to stay with her. Though...when it all comes down to it... he didn't have a choice. She could out run him. No doubt. Especially since he didn't seem to eager to turn.
"It's...a surprise. And I'm going to get ya home safe. Don't worry hun. Oh, and by the way. Nix is coming. So, if your gonna be hanging out with me for a while, your going to need to learn how to be a werewolf. Take a deep breath through your nose to see if you can catch his scent. Close your eyes if you have to." Twilight wouldn't push him. He didn't have to change now, but he would learn some skills that he could use in human form.

[dark]

"Um, put it this way, he used to eat werewolfe..." Sylar said scrunching up his face in disgust "I...um....wont tell the details but he had a business out of it...well part of a business..."

Sylar gave a little quiet yawn and looked up at her a little blirry eye'd
"Hey! I'm not a high school student!" he said indignently stomping one foot on the ground and stcking his tongue out at her playfully "I'm a college student, and am not some child relying on there parents or anything. I'm a wonderfull adult thank-you-very-much. And I am not a shrimp, just...not very tall" he grinned

"Why wouldn't they?" He asked giving her that wide eyed confused look cocking his head to one side then frowned "It is old, its like just before your mid life crisis. My mum was having my little sister, who was her forth child at the time so it's totally old."

"So like, how the hell do you manage to find your way home all the time? in the dark? Cause I dunno about you but I can't see shit in the dark" he smirked and pulled out a small pocket mirror "Aww you craicked it" he pouted
Reaching into the little pink rugsack he had he pulled out some lipstick as she spoke fixing himself as best he could without make-up wipes or anything
"Nix? Oh yeah, seriously thats his name? Everyone I've met here so far has silly names" he giggled "I almost don't feel stupid saying 'Sylar' all the time, I probably shoulda had a girlier name but I like my name" he smirked

Sylar gave her an odd look before shrugging and did as she told and winced a little as a strong scent hit the back of his nose "I think I caught it,I mean I don't go around smelling people or nothing but I'm guessing" he shrugged, granted he could have caught the smell of some creepy hobo hiding around here who had just forgot to wash making him smell like that....though probably not.

[Twilight Black]

Twilight raised an eye brow, but this time a slight cock of the head was added.
Eat werewolves? Interesting... Hehe, I thought it was supposed to be the other way around Twilight thought darkly. An image popped up of what Sylar's dad could look like, then Twilight ripping his throat out, blood spurting feebly from his jugular vein and... She shivered in delight. Her eyes glowed golden for a few seconds. Pure ecstasy. Mustn't let my mind get away with me like that though. Besides it's still the boys father.

Twilight rolled her eyes at his display. She sneered at him.
"How old are you, Mr. Short College Boy?" Her voice had only a slightly teasing tone to it. Twilight didn't usually play nice. A small smirk stayed in place. That question wasn't much of one. He couldn't be much older than 18, and that wasn't even a legal drinking age. Oh yeah, Mr. All-grown-up. Twilight rolled her eyes a second time, ignoring the jab about thirty being old. She sighed, slightly impatiently.

"Scent is a very useful tool... I can usually track myself back home. If not...well, the town is south west from here, if I get close enough to town, I'll be able to pick up scents from it. And... you will be able to see in the dark. Most of the changing you do...changing in human form at least... will happen within a month. So don't go changing your name yet... might regret it." The smirk was back. He would do more changing than even he realized. Sylar would probably not be much of the same kid much longer.

"And yeah, Nix...Phoenix," she corrected herself, "Probably doesn't smell too great to you. Males don't smell too good to other males." Twilight rolled her eyes. Males. She would have said it out loud, but it would be very repetitive to say the word 'male' three times in the same sentence. She kept her thoughts silent for now.

[Phoenix]

Phoenix progressed through the brush on the ground following the invisible odor and the occasional random footprint. Finally he heard the voices of Twilight and the odd intruder, obviously not a threat otherwise Twi would have properly disposed of it by now. Finally his friend and the lost intruder came into view. Nix climbed up a nearby pine tree to have a good overhead view. He was an exceptionally good tree climber when in his human form. He heard Twi tell the person to take a big sniff and see if he could smell him. The short boy said something about being able to smell him. If Nix had not been able to smell the male werewolf he wouldn't have known it was male because the boy looked like a Vegas drag queen in his opinion. Then Twilight said something of how males didn't smell none too good to other males.
Nix finally decided it was time to literally drop in. He landed ten feet from Twi and said, "Awful late at night isn't it Twilight? You look a little exposed."and he threw the towel at her. Then Nix asked Twilight, "Who's the lost sheep? He seems to be a little young to be wondering around here in unexplored territory without Mommy and Daddy to keep him safe. Not to mention that this is your territory." Phoenix studied the intruder and then spat in disgust at the way he was dressed.

[dark]

"Seventeen, if I was still at home I would be legally an adult in a few months but no America's where the rich people go, ugh" Sylar pouted he had never planned to end up in some back end town in California "Not that it ever stopped me getting shit faced granted." he smirked remembering a few things he'd ended up doing....and getting arrested for, good times.

"Creepy, well long as I can still become a doctor and pull in cute guys from seedy little bars I'm happy" he smirked

Sylar jumped as Nix landed looking at the other man startled, well he certainly beat Sylar on the cool entrance
Sylar crossed his arms regarding the other man "Well that would go for you too since you look little older, and from what I hear your still in school" Sylar smirked
It'll take hours to get my hair right after this he thought to himself before cliping his hand mirror shut and looking back over at Nix
"I'm Sylar." he said simply raising his eyebrow at the spit then smirked "Well that's not going to get you any Mr. Frindly." he sighed rolling his eyes "Territory? Hey I bought, well my dad bought that house so I reckon I can go just about anywhere." he shrugged, he hated it when other people thought they could tell him what to do or even where he could go, he'd always do the opposite, got him beaten up once or twice, granted he didn't have his big brother here to beat up Nix afterwards but Sylar doubted he'd back down anyway
"why are you being an not a very nice person anyway?" he asked cocking his head to the side "I didn't step on your puppy did I?"
