Volk hauled himelf across the cliffs trying to find the scent of a Lycan. He had come across several scents but none were Lycan.
"shit this isn't going to last. I hope that I get to sit on my ass for the final trial", he moaned. "Alright so where's this final Lycan hiding at."
He sniffed around a bit more and found a Lycan scent... but it was familiar.
"No that can't be right. It can't be her, not here. The Packleader would never let her leave the territory without permission, means she's out on official business", he said taking in another large whiff. "No doubt it's her, Kris."

A long, sharp yawn suddenly interjected Volk's outer monolgue, and a familiar voice stated,
"Ahh.... expected it to be you... didn't hear about any new Pack hopefuls -besides- you... ah well. About time you got here."
Several dozen feet away was none other than Lora, sitting on a large rock with a smirk, someone standing several feet behind her, concealed in the shadows. She gave Volk a toothy smirk before reaching back and swatting whoever it was behind her. A single, blood-red eye glowed into existance, and the mechanical voice of Tenkyanon's commander muttered,
"So that's him, eh? Finally got here... inefficient fleshy b*stard..."
Lora swatted the entity again, causing an audible 'ping!' from the action, and Lora bit her lip, giving a slight groan as she clutched her hand.
"Ow... damned hard-exterior robot..." She muttered.
Both parties gave a barking laugh in response to that, then Lora tilted her head back at Volk, asking,
"By the way... I hate to intrude, but it's bugging me. Who's this 'Kris' person you just mentioned?"

"Nice to see you again Lora. Nice to meet you... Lora's friend. Kris was an old pack member from the Nightpeak. She has unbelievable stealth even for a Lycan. She was pushed outside of the group much like I was. I took pity on her and began to protect her before I was imprisoned due to a prophecy one of our Elder's had She was the closest thing I actually had to family", he said. "The fact that her scent is outside the pack territory means that she has been given some form of task by the packleader and elders."
He continued to investigate the direction her scent went off in. He looked towards the river.
"Seems she already has my scent too. I hope that she knows not to go into your pack's territory. With her intentions she will be invading for a long while I bet and depending on how fast she moves she may reach the grounds of the trials. So how have you been Lora and do introduce me to your friend there who seems so fond of 'squishies'", he finished.

The ebony droid muttered something under his breath before Lora shoved him back further into the trees, iliciting a surprised grunt from the machine.
"That's just O'Malley. He's kind of a big-wig around Nightshade, and he's a damned-good technician. You need anything, and I'm sure he can build it for you. He and I are also good friends, heh." Lora replied, smiling at the end.
O'Malley staggered back out of the trees, protective eye-plates clicking together in his sort of 'blink', then looked at Lora as she sighed,
"And about your friend... I'm sorry to hear that, Volk, and I -really- hope she doesn't get into trouble with us. Maybe.... when you get into the pack, you'll have a better chance of getting her out of trouble, if she just so happens to get in any with Darkwood. Sound good, hmm?"
She paused, then gritted her teeth and promptly smacked herself in the forehead.
"Oh! I almost forgot! Sorry, that's the whole reason you're here. Allow me to get you on your way!"
With surprising speed, Lora was already in Gauru form before she threw her head back... and issued one of the most hauntingly beautiful howls one could hear around Nightshade. She sighed, head still titled upwards, before looking back at Volk and smiling, giving a nod.
"That should do it! Sorry for holding you up like this... blame O'Malley! It's easier that way!" She replied, biting her tongue with a smirk.
O'Malley flinched away from her in a sort of horrified look as he barked,
"Oh sure! Blame the one who had -nothing- to do with the situation!"
The droid stumbled back once more as Lora gave him a push, her current strength being enough to send him off his feet with a 'thud'. Lora winced, then muttered,
"Sorry... anyway Volk, you should get going. You've got one more trial to do, and it's kind of a doozy."

"Thank you Lora. You've been a good person to me. I truly enjoy our encounters. Take care and good luck with that Aspect of yours", he said shifting into his own Gauru form.
He turned to her before he left.
"Oh and you remember those creatures we fought at the lake, keep an eye out for them. A group of 5 came looking for revenge at the first site", he warned.
He then left bounding into the trees with no further words.

Lora waved Volk off gleefully, shouting,
"You too! Good luck!"
As Volk dissapeared from sight, she slowly turned back towards O'Malley, of whom had gotten off the ground and was dusting himself off. He'd been staring at her before asking,
"'Those things at the lake'? Mind elaborating...?"
Lora sighed, shaking her head.
"Dunno, some humanoid insect-things... don't worry though, we took care of them." She replied.
O'Malley had frozen when he heard her say what they were, and his pupil slowly swiveled to the side. She noticed, and hesitantly asked,
"O'Malley...? Do you know what they are?"
He looked skyward, muttering,
"No... they couldn't... they were destroyed..."
He shook his head before stepping forward and swiveling around in one fluent motion, suddenly standing next to Lora with an arm around her waist.
"Probably not, I'd have to see them for myself to know. Setting that topic aside, you're done with your job for the night, and I'm feeling pretty good about yesterday's triumph. Anything you wanna do?"
She smirked, rubbing up against him as one of her canine teeth poked out from between her lips.
"I can think of something..."
O'Malley 'blinked' again, then tilted his head back and issued a mechanical sigh.
"You just don't give up, do you...? ... alright, fine... I'm curious as to see what it's like anyway, and why everyone around here KEEPS DOING IT..."
Lora giggled before the machine radioed in for a dropship, muttering,
"One sec... gotta go get my squishy self."
