Sean wished desperately that could could provide Nova with answers, but all he could do was stand there, arms hung limp at his sides, and his eyes closed. "I'm sorry Nova" He muttered as he stepped towards her and knelt at her side. He felt presumptuous for his urges here but slowly, with unpracticed caution Sean brought his hand to softly stroke against the white fur of the wolf beside him. Sean lowered his eyes to the water for the first time himself and let his mind wander as he absent mindedly pet Nova hoping to provide even a little comfort.
What stared back was no human, no face that Sean could have recognized, it was as though the face of the jester he'd donned the night before had changed him entirely. His lips were thin, his flesh still a pale tone as it had been, but his eyes, unlike their normal blue color, were a piercing... golden color with the slightest black slit that looked almost draconic in nature. He was surprised that he hadn't terrified Nova when first she'd seen him. Sean brought his free hand through his hair, and found that it had grown several inches in a night. His hand felt warm almost hot as he touched his scalp, and then lowered it to look. indents of lizard like scales imprinted his body all over, and red symbols... images he couldn't quite figure out were printed across his flesh in odd places. His face had a similar red in the shape of crescents that went around his eyes and over his cheeks... Sean raised a hand to touch the marks and found they were just as much a part of his flesh as the rest. "What the hell happened." He questioned under his breath then turned back towards the forest.
A sigh parted his lips as he felt the wolf next to him shiver. Nothing about this was right, it was strange and they didn't understand, but someone had to stand up here.... and that meant for now... he had to put his biggest worry aside... Sean remembered the woman Fate was her name.. the nurse and what she'd said to him... His heart hurt as he remembered Hailey's body, the way she lay there.... how he'd held her cold hand in his... and then.. this.. his vow, the choice he'd made.... It was then.. that everything changed.. and strangely that gave Sean a crazy kind of hope... and the will that he needed to do what he must.
"Red will be returning soon I'm sure. When he gets back we will see what changes have happened to him too..." He stopped petting Nova as he stood up from the ground and walked over to a large plant, cupping a thick and leathery looking leaf in his hands. Sean crouched next to the water and dipped the leaf. "I can't give you any answers.. Nova.. but im happy that your here with me regardless of what you've become... or what I'v become.. We can't afford to break down here... Not until we know more about where we are, and what happened last night..." Sean pulled the leaf from the water and cupped it tight in his hands so that no water could escape. "Let me see your paw Nova... " he knew it would hurt the girl to hear him say that, but it was better they accepted this than tried to run from it... something wasn't right.. and they had to figure that out before anything could be done. "It is going to sting a bit.. but bare with me, I'm going to scrub the wound out so that it doesn't infect as easily... When Red gets back we will see what we can do from here..." Sean smiled to her as he might normally but it wasn't the same.. Fangs protuded from behind his lips, but even with deep golden eyes.. He was still Sean. Nova hadn't known him for long, but He was Sean, a silly little jester she'd met at the dance.
"If it helps any, Wolves are my favorite animals... and its somewhat exciting to be so close to one.. your coat it beautiful."
