Aura shoved Eclipse off of her and stood, letting her hair loose from it's braid so that it fell nicely around her shoulders. Opening her door she stepped into the hallway, as normal there was limited activity on the hallway she stayed, they were night people.
Eclipse followed after her, slowing his steps to match Aurahkah's strides. He was humming a familiar song, one you could often catch Aurahkah humming to herself, as he followed. Every once and a while he would twitch a wing.

"Grrrr.... hurk!"
Kasis snapped awake, a stream of drool on the side of his mouth and down his arm. His vision was blurred and it took a moment before he remembered where he was.
"Grrrr.... hurk!!!"
Kasis looked around the room and found it empty. The house seemed empty despite the lively group from last night. He sighed and scratched behind his cat ears. Suddenly his nose picked up a rancid smell. He cringed and tried to find the source. Finally looking at himself he could feel the stentch emenating from himself. He rolled his eyes and looked for his duffel bag. I did leave it in here didn't I? Finally spying it against the wall he ran up to go pick it up.
"Grrr... Hurk i say!!!" (This was his stomach.)
Finally giving in, he raided the fridge one last time and took a small chunk of trout and helped himself to a plate of pasta. With food in hand and his stomach finally satisfied he picked up his duffel bag and made his way out the door. A few steps out, he re entered the kitchen and picked up his cargo hat on the ground then went to the courtyard.
"Well since no one's around, i hope they won't mind if i bathe outside X3"

Eclipse split off from Aurahkah's side and detoured into the courtyard. He glanced the apparent cat boy from the other night, gave him no mind and continued on into dense foliage. It was still before dusk and to the winged wolf knowledge, vampires didn't come out before then. Slipping to his secret spot, Eclipse grabbed the glowing orb him and Saradin often played with.
Aura had continued on her way, gotten a plate of leftovers from the kitchen, and heating the meal, she was now sitting at the table, eating her supposed late lunch but actually breakfast for her.

Kasis set his duffel bag next to his beloved boulder. He took out some clothes and laid it on the grass next to the lake's shore. He stripped his own clothes and hat and tested the water. It was cold but bearable. Kasis filled his lungs with the warm afternoon air and plunged into the pond. He felt his lungs contract slightly and the oxygen was used up quickly. He breached the surface and took a lungful of air. Another reason why he was strange. A cat liking to swim?

A ball of light rolled out from the dense foliage in the back of the courtyard into the open area. It sat there for a moment, glowing brightly. Seconds later it was pounced upon by the dark wolf, who pawed at it and batted it around. Making it roll every which way, the wolf barking at it as it rolled.
Inside the manor, specifically the kitchen Aura's laugh could be heard. In her mind Eclipse was going on about things again. Specifically about this little ball and how he had triumphantly chased down Saradin and retrieved it from his fellow shadow.

After a few more minutes of mindless swimming, he scanned the surrondings for any movement and finding none he quickly jumped out of the pool to his boulder where a towel and clothes awaited him. It would be embarassing to be caught naked. Kasis wrapped the towel around his waist and looked up at the sky. It was such a nice day. He could just sit out here and sleep. But he had some questions on his mind, and a pang of guilt from something. He quickly threw on his clothes and stuffed the dirty ones into his bag. Grabbing his had and leaving his bag by the boulder he ran inside. Upon entering the manor, he heard laughing. He ran toward it.

Eclipse came into view of the manor, the glowing orb in his jaws. He noticed that the at boy was gone, what was his name again? Kasis? Yes, Kasis that was it. Fluffing his wings once and shaking out his fur he proceeded inside, hoping to con some attention out of someone.
Aura had finished up her meal, and had washed the dishes she had used. Now she moved on to a glass of wine. She laughed at the thought. If it wasn't coffee, it was wine.

Kasis slowed his pace as he neared the kitchen door. He put the hat back upon his head snuggly and opened it to Aura laughing at something.
"Um, good afternoon Lady Aura." He seated himself down into a chair. "I, uh wanted to apolgize for my behavior last night. From some info from Saradin though, it seems to be normal. But i feel horrible for disrupting such a fantastic dinner."

Aura looked over her shoulder to see Kasis and turned to him, giving him a warm smile."Afternoon Kasis." She went to the table, sitting down across from the boy and waved a hand in dismissal of his other statement as she sipped from her glass for a moment. "No need to apologize. Saradin's right, outbursts and such are fairly common." She smiled again at him. "AS for dinner," She shrugged, "pay that no mind. It happens."
Eclipse came bounding into the kitchen, dropping the orb on the floor, letting it roll slightly before he trotted to Aura, nuzzling her arm in an attempt to gain attention. When he got her scratching his ears he looked to Kasai, and even though his muzzle never moved, words could be heard coming from the wolf. "I see he's calmed down considerably."

eek "Ohmigoodness! A talking canine!!!" He jumped out his chair and slammed his hands down onto the table making Aura's cup jump a bit. Kasis stared at the angelic canine and couldn't believe his eyes. He had heard something talking last night but wasn't sure who was exactly talking.
"Wha-what exactly are you? sweatdrop "

Eclipse's laughter became mixed with Aura's at the outburst from Kasis. He looked to his master, speaking through their mind link since he couldn't get the words out.
Aura sobered her self and motioned for Kasis to sit back down. "Maybe I should start warning people about my dear Eclipse's talking from now on.Let me explain Kasis. Eclipse here is not a true wolf, that's why he has wings, he's created from a sort of shadow magic. The reason that he can talk is that he is spirit bound to me, making his thoughts audible to others.
Eclipse walked over to Kasis some, three and a half feet of wold looking up at him. "Come on, I'm not that scary."

Scary wasn't the word that Kasis had in mind. It was more like....
"AWESOME!!!" Kasis quickly got on the floor and started to pet Eclipse, scatching behind the ears his head, stroking his wings and everything he could do! He had never seen a canine up so close. Coming from a felinius clan, they were sworn enemies. Only did Kasis not see what was so terrible with these creatures.
"Wow! A real life canine, what did you say it was? Wolf? And these wings. Like angel's wings in the human folk lore!"

Eclipse laughed once and was quickly falling victim to the scratching. He sat back on his haunches for Kasis and splayed his wings, to their full span of eight feet, so he could get a better look. "Now this is attention." He gave a bark, despite his ability to use words.
Aura let out another laugh. "Eclipse dear, your fan club is growing." Kasis enthusiasm was refreshing to say the least. She sipped at her drink some more as she watched Kasis inspect her friend.

"Wow, look at these wings..." He stared at them in awe, his hands scratching Eclipse's neck. He turned back to Aura.
"Lady Aura, you said he was created from magic. Are you a sorceress? Or a witch?" If she was then she didn't look like one, or at least a very beautiful one.

Aura laughed again. "I guess I could be considered somewhat of a sorceress, seeing as I have a very good knowledge and manipulation of magic and did create Eclipse, but I've never been called by that title. It's not what I grew up as."
Eclipse drew in his raven colored feathered wings in slightly, occupying less space but still giving Kasis enough room to inspect. He was throughly enjoying himself. "Aurahkah...I think I attract cats, and cat like things."
"You attract everything under the sun my friend."
