The Meeting

I raised my hands to the large wolf that was now lying on top of me finding it so cute and started to rub its face with its tongue lolling out in enjoyment. "Well hello cutie what's your name? You are too cute, and friendly and fluffy!" Spazz chuckled loudly and watched me, and the wolf, he then said in a cheerful tone. "That is Falling Star las, he is another garu but he refuses to take on his Hamid form. Alright Star, you overgrown mutt let her get up. She will be living here from now on so you will get plenty of chances to tackle her." 

I kept petting Star I couldn't help myself he was so cute and to fluff up his fur I looked at Spazz, and smiled widely, "Sorry I can't help it he is so cute! Can I keep him?" Spazz only laughed and slapped his knee. "Looks like someone else wants to be your owner Star." Star only made a few yips and half howling before he plopped down fully on top of me and started to give me a lot of licks. Tina laughed and said, "Looks like you made a friend Crystal." 

I whispered into Star's ear and said, "Go lick Tina and give her lots of love." I pet him one more time before he got up. He looked at Tina weirdly like she had something weird on her and Spazz said, " Reaction is because of the wyrm taint on her for being a Black Spiral Dancer but he won't hurt her if that's what you thinking las." As Spazz said this Star ran towards her Tina's eyes went wide as she was tackled and her face was licked all over by Star, she laughed and squealed while saying. "Mercy! Mercy!! I give, thank you for the kisses."

Star finally after a minute stopped assaulting Tina with his love and walked back to Spazz looking so proud of himself, Spazz just shook his head laughing softly before asking. "Anything I need to know about today Star?" Star tilted his head, it was obvious he was more intelligent than he normally showed, it was also funny hearing him communicate through yips, barks, and growls with a few howels here and there. and Spazz seemed to understand it all, though I guess that was not a real surprise he is a garu as well.

After a while, Spazz nodded and tilted his head slightly, as if deep in thought. I wondered what the inside of this mansion looked like, it was so big, it had at least three upper levels, and was so wide. It looked as if this place could at least hold about a thousand people inside it. " Alright las, let's show you around, first stop the main hall," he said helping me and Tina back to our feet before leading us up to the front door, upon opening it we were greeted with a wide open entrance into the main hall of the mansion, in the middle of the main hall was a statue of a man in a suit but this one looked different from the one out in the fountain, that one seemed to look like A'kreath but something was off about it, it had a gentler look to it. this one however depicted a man who had a slim build in a suit but his facial features appeared more on the stronger side and he had more of a stoic expression and was holding a book in his left hand. " who is that?" was all that came out of my mouth almost as if it was an uncontrolled question.

Spazz looked at the statue with a saddened expression and with a sad smile he walked up to the statue touching the base of it. " This was my best friend las, this was Tracer. the one who started the Alliance with me. he was a good man... for a kindred." he chuckled softly but it was as if he forced it. " This man is also A'kreaths mentor," he said softly before turning back to us. " Alright let's save some of the questions for later on. If you look to your right you will see the kitchen and to your left, you will see the offices, one of which is A'kreaths, do not barge in knock on the door please," he said before leading us to the kitchen. "we have fully stalked fridges and walk-in freezers we have almost everyone's diets including vegan." 

As we entered the kitchen I could smell something being made on the stove. the kitchen was huge I saw three different stoves and five fridges, and there were so many tables and chairs it looked almost like a cafeteria. " wow.... it is so big." Tina's jaw dropped and her mouth salivated at the smell of the food being prepared. " is that steak?" she asked as Spazz laughed and nodded. " Aye it is las made by my wife Kitty, look," he said pointing over to Kitty, as we all looked at Kitty we saw a woman with tanned skin and long black hair coming down to just past the back of her knees, she was in a white gown and had gold arm bands and bracelets, she turned around and we saw gold eyes that almost seemed to glow and a cat like smile as she saw Spazz, she also was visibly pregnant, she walked up to him slowly. " Hello Darling, and who are these three young ladies?" she asked the first one she reached out to was Tina who seemingly shivered as her hand grazed over her cheek. " T...Tina, ma'am." Tina stammered out and Kitty giggled lightly.

Niki stared at Kitty seemingly enamored, nervous, and trying to figure her out, Kitty looked over to Niki as Spazz whispered into her ear, she walked over to Niki making her swallow hard as she looked up to Kitty who was about Six feet tall. " your name is Niki yes?" she asked and all Niki did was nod unable to speak for some reason as Kitty gently took her hand and pulled her into a hug." it is okay, little one, I know what you have been through, you are not alone." She seemed so gentle but you could tell if you messed with her or those she cared about she would not hold back. Kitty just held Niki and rubbed her back now whispering in her ear and comforting her it seemed. I could see tears streaming done both hers and Niki's cheeks.

Spazz looked to me and Tina, motioning us to come with him. " let's leave those two to talk, I should show you to your room first Crystal, then I need to send Tina to the forge." he said leading us upstairs to the rooms.
