Bastet heard the knock and put the letter down on the her bed. She looked for the most part the same, minus the cat features and with her hair touseled. Raking a hand through her hair she put some order to it.
Kepi grabbed a random dress using his mouth and dragged it back to Bastet's room, where outside there stood an elf. He growled lightly upon approaching the elf and pawed at the door.
Now there was a pawwing, great. Kepi and someone else at the door. Without her cat senses she could hear nothing extra, or smell who it might be, "Oh well." With the sheet still around her, she opened the door and Kepi ran in with her dress, watching the elf the whole time with his ears back. "Kepi, stand down." With an uncertain smile, she turned to her Nelphean. "Hello... Everytime you see me I just keep changing."

"Something's up." He twitched an ear, keen on the shouting. But ignored it for the most part, for it didn't seem to pose threat really. Seeing his daughter well entertained he walked over, and nudged her from Aurahkah's grip. "Go sit with Nelphean... and you "I" and "me"..." Then he laid down next to Aurahkah and rested his head in her lap. "Where are you now Aurahkah?"
"Jackals..."
Ecara obliged her father and moved over to Nelphean. She plopped in his lap, he probably didn't mind the personal space invasion anyway and smiled up at him. "If it makes Nelphean happy."

He didn't even hear her. he moved to teh nearest table and flung it agasint the wall, lost in a rage that was bordering on releasing the Beast. grabbing some of the patrons and throwing them through windows or into the bar or through tables.
"We SAW you're actions, Debtor! We told you if you treated her wrong we would come, and we WILL find you! Or maybe someone else!"
He sense of smell focused in on a female. he knew she was his family, he knew the scent..and gripped her neck, lifting her off the ground like she was nothing, and squeezed hard. of course the first one that tried to save her was fed his lower intestine, and had his spine removed. his eyes focused on the girl and he kept his grip squeezing down.
"Call for him. beg him to come save you. plead. whimper. you wretched, disgusting human filth."
His fangs dripped with venom and his eyes glowed with anger...

"I know, you just can't decide which outfit to wear." Nelphean said, "May I come in, or stay out?"
"Then let us sing, princess." The elf smiled, and wraped his arms loosely around Ecara in a hug.
"The night may fall upon us, but we shall always stand, forever united by our love, never to be alone, only to know eachother..."

Nailah watched in horror as Cymarron went insane. She saw him pick up Dobb's daughter and squeeze her. She shook her head though she felt it wasn't a great loss. The girl had been a b***h to her anyway. "Cymarron! Stop it! I'm fine."
Dobbs heard the bellow down below and scrambled to his secret hiding place. He wasn't stupid. He had the secret chamber installed just in case and had never told anyone. He'd be fine. He listened to the sound of glass breaking and wondered how many would die. He wasn't worried. All of their belongings would become his and he'd finally get a break. He worked too damn hard.
Niah grabbed the back of a chair and said "Cymarron...I need you to calm dow-" She fell to her knees and clutched her head. His anger was overwhelming her and she could feel herself losing it. Excruciating pain hit her and she began tearing at her hair. Anything to get the pain to stop. She whimpered once and swayed. Her whole body felt weighted and combined with her near exhaustion it was a bad equation. She refused to faint though and called out once again. "Cym...please....stop...."

Her head lulled forward slightly, her posture slumping a little as one hand found it's way to Eclipse's fur. Among her dark thoughts on the inside, she could hear those on the outside. Such soothing sounds. Another exhale of break and she continued on the shadowed road of her mind.
Eclipse closed his eyes and sighed. He wanted to help, he always did. But this time he couldn't all he could be was support.
Ecara hummed along again with Nelphean, slightly going limp. The little wolf featured girl curled up in his lap against his chest, one hand gripping at his shirt. Her humming soon started to become less coherent and able to keep up, as she started to drift off.
((Checking out early tonight. Night guys.))

Her anger was showing some, though hopefully it would shrink soon. "More like I can not figure out what skin to wear. You stay out a moment." She frankly closed the door in his face, yanked the dress off the floor and put it on. It was a medium blue dress outlined in dark blue, with a moderate neckline, higher than she was used to. There was a slit only going to her knee, and the sleeves were small withe see through veils connected that fell almost to the ground. After a few moments, she rubbed her ears trying to get used to the shrunken sound of everything, and opened the door again to face her elf as a full human, living on human years. "Now you can come in."
Kepi stayed low and growled at Nelphean only to receive a look from Bastet.
"Stop Kepi, go find Tyler, look in Nailah's room. Leave your kittens there if you wish." She sighed and watched the pissy cat leave with his kittens. He was more protective of them than most father cats were. Not able to hide her slight unbalance, she leaned against the wall to think. She turned her head to Nelphean, "Is there anything else catostrophic I should just know about now?"

His head turned to Nailah...and his ears dropped. she was suffering..empath. he'd forgotten his emotions strong enough to overwhelm her, or cause her pain. the female in his grip however, made his blood boil. evne more so that her father did not bother to come even look at her. but Nailah was more important..and he flung her aside, hard. hoping she broke her neck against something.
"What is wrong, Merre? Are you alright?"
At least he'd remembered her alias here. he shot the males around a very dangerous look.
"Any of you see anything like that happen again, and do not stop it...not even Merre's word will spare you. she is under OUR protection, and we take that charge VERY seriously."
He turned his attention back to Nailah, and picked her up, setting her on the bar after wiping away any glass that may have been scattered on it.
"You are alright now, Merre?"

"Tyler... Yes... He's not in Nailah's room." Nelphean said as he watched Bastet. He was confused, he wasn't sure how he felt about her human form, it was beautiful of course, but Bastet would never be comfortable as a full human. "Nelphean's eyes wandered about Bastet's form, and he smiled, "Well, I thought you were a cute cat, but still, that dress looks amazing on you." His smiled turned to a normal relaxed face, and he closed the distance bewteen the two, "Are you?" Nelphean wasn't sure how to phrase the question, he would hate beign human, and he would hate to be anything less than himself.
Nelphean smiled at the child and craddled her in his arms, he felt somehow whole holding the child. He continued to sing for a while, until he too fell asleep. He continued to sing in his dreams, and the devils andthe torture did not come, the sound of Rakka's screams didn't polute his dreams... He relaxed, and sleeped well... He opened d his eyes a few minutes later, smiling brightly, and started to sing another song. A sleepish tune, one that he used to sing to Rakka every night.

Nailah looked at Cymarron for a moment her eyes glazed over in pain. His anger was a force to be reckoned with. The destruction around her was amazing and she barely heard anything. Everything sounded far away and she heard Cymarron talking to someone named Merre. Who's Merre? Her vision was going fuzzy and her head hurt. She closed her eyes tightly and tried to block out any remains of his wrath. She shook her head and whispered "Cymarron...why?" Then she felt exhaustion mix with pain and her body went limp. She fell forward as the blackness consumed her.
((No I'm not leaving but Niah is done for the night. Do with me what you wish Cymarron but do not take my body back to the manor.))

Her look became weary very quickly, "Where is he? I have already sent off my cat, and he will only track so far."
Bastet watched him watch her and did not move as he closed the distance between them. She sighed, "This is the hag's doing. Yes, I am a human." Her hands felt the top of her head again as if to make sure and as she was doing so she caught sight of her nails. "What kind of claws are these? They are not even sharp." She played with them, fully aware that they were normal nails, but not wanting to believe it. "These humans, there eyesight, hearing, and sense of smell are horrible. Every sound is dull upon my ears accept your voice maybe." Examining herself again, the loss of her tail made her pout lightly. "The hag will change me back, no matter what... I should not have trusted her." Her emerald eyes gazed at him, "Thank you, but what else have you been thinking as I change so much? And how are you my elf, all of you is there the way you want it I hope?"
Kepi wandered back into Nailah's room, even though he had not seen the boy earlier. He picked up the boy's scent and left the room again.

Cymarron caught her, and looked at her, sniffing the air about her. she was exhausted. and the stress of his emotions had overdone it. he laid her gently on the bartop, and grabbed the nearest person and lifted them off the ground and pulled them right up agasint his jowls.
"You. You get good sheets, and bedding."
Tossing him down, he grabbed someone else.
"and You. Get decent clothing. nice clothing."
That one was tossed away as well.
"And the rest of you...your turn to be cleaning and setting this building in order again. and you best do it before Cymarron becomes impatient and decides that he'll have a human all you can eat dinner."
Then his eyes turned to Dobb's daughter. and a very nasty thought came to mind.
"and see if that one is still alive..and if so...take her to a room. We'll deal with her."

Nelphean smiled at Bastet, he closed the distance between the two, and pressed his body up against hers. "Now Bastet, I have held you in my arms when you were a cat, a woman and both." Nelphean kissed her forehead softly, "Tyler... Is... Sleeping... And... Aurora wont surrender him easily. She has taken to him rather well. But she'll-"
"Come when she is called." The woman form of Aurora was still being used, she looked at Bastet, and smiled. "Can't keep your hands of her, can ya elf." Aurora held a bundle in her arms, and she rocked it back and forth much like a mother would. "Nelphean thought if Tyler thought this was a dream, he would take this better..."

Tyler was having a horrible nightmare. Nailah had left him and she wasn't coming back. He had been carried to some place where she was and he couldn't reach her. She acted like he wasn't even there. He felt arms around him and he was held softly and rocked and he stirred. Was it his mother? Or had Miss Niah not left at all? He peeked out of the blankets and looked at the woman who held him. His heart dropped when he saw it wasn't Miss Niah after all. Then he had the horrible feeling that it hadn't been a dream. It was all very very real. He began to cry, big tears rolling down his cheeks. "Miss Niah..."

Aurora looked at Nelphean, Way to go, you made it cry... She tried to hush the tears, calling soothing words, but her voice seemed to fall on deaf ears... "Nailah had to go on a trip, she was compelled to go without you." Aurora rocked the child, secretly cursing Nelphean.
