"You have no clue." Hawk shook his head. "Don't you have any companion like people? Or are you all alone in this dangerous world?" He felt he had to ask, since he had talked about Breaker and Megan all this time.

Kyo slouched a little and looked at the ground. "Not really," she admitted, "I have companions, but I don't see them often. I usually work a lot and I spend a lot of my time alone. I'd love to see my friends more, but they're often busy too." Her left hand rested in her crossed legged lap as the other drew tribal/Celtic designs in the semi-dirt ground.

Hawk had never been a very empathetic person but he felt like maybe Kyo might need a little comfort. He put one of his wings over her back, positioned so that it would feel like a massive feathery blanket.

At that point Kyo relaxed and listened to the nature around them. The crickets were for sure the loudest, but she also heard the whispers of the wind and the music from the trees. Everything seemed so peaceful; she almost wanted to sleep, but there was too much on her mind to even do so. Kyo then decided to rest close her eyes and listen more.

"Watch this." Hawk used the feathers on his other wings like fingers. They fiddled with the grass and started tieing blades of grass together into cone shapes. He closed his eyes, the wind concentrated around them. They began playing music that sounded reminicent to a flute. It had a defined tone and pattern but nothing recognizable. "Wind is fun."

Kyo smiled and placed her hands together; a flame grew between the palms and pushed them away from each other. A modern, metallic flute was summoned, so she listened longer, then joined in the melody, playing in tune. It was a nicely considerable way to pass time.

Hawk put his hand on the flute. His wind stopped. He shook his head out. "Sorry Kyo." He took his hand off the flute. "Too much soft music. They say it soothes the beast. I am no exception. And in a world like this I can't afford to be lulled to sleep."

A combustion reaction occurred and the flute was no more. Kyo smiled as she giggled one, "Oh but surely you're better than a beast? Why do you think such of yourself?" Her smile faded as her eyes twinkled in the moon and star light, "I know. You're part human with some sort of animal DNA. Unless I'm totally wrong."

"Its actually a lot more accurate to say I'm a hawk with some human DNA." Hawk said with a slight grin. "You see, when my mother had first gotten pregnant with me. She was visited by a spirit in her dreams, a large silver bird. It told her that for the sake of many that she would give birth to a boy, who would be a half bird. My mother dismissed it as just a dream cause by the hormones, but when the doctors did the first ultrasound, he noticed that I had extremely large shoulder blades. My mother never got another ultrasound. She knew what I was, especially because before she gave birth, she said she could feel what felt like metal bars inside her, the strong edge of my wings."
He folded them behind him. "My parents thought I was a miracle but kept me hidden for my own safety. My uncle is a brilliant cosmetic surgeon and a dentist, I had a whole facial reconstruction done to shape my mouth from a beak, so great that to this day unless I tell someone they would have never known."
He chuckled. "These teeth are real because under my beak I still had teeth. I wish I still had baby pictures, aside from the wings, I look nothing like I do now. So thats what I am, the human you see is majority artificial. So truely I am a beast."

When Hawk spoke, she nodded and smiled, but when he was finished with his explanation, Kyo snorted. It was nothing out of rudeness, but rather amusement. "By that logic," her laugh subsided, "I guess I'm a beast as well." Kyo subconsciously used her hands as she spoke, "I'm half cat demon, and half fire spirit. Vyo, my dead conjoined twin, and I were funny when we were little." She rolled her left pant leg up and turned her leg enough for Hawk to see the large scar that remained, "That was where we were connected." Kyo then rolled her pant leg back down and sat normally again. She smiled, "Though just by looking, I can't tell what you might have once looked like."

"Well, again, my uncle is a brilliant cosmetic surgeon, it wasn't fun though, I spent at least a year and a half to two years in a hospital." Hawk shook his head. "Infact, all I ever did was take a four minute way twice a day to prevent bed sores. The rest of the time I slept, I was in way too much pain to move much so I was kept asleep with meds. Kinda sorry I missed those years. Its really no fun to just fly by, no pun intended, through years that were there but you weren't, only to return in such a different place."

Kyo frowned, "I guess it's nice to look more socially acceptable, but I'm sorry two years of your life went by without pleasant memories." She rhythmically tapped her long claws against her knee, "Though that's no good. Have you at least made up for the years that you lost?" For meeting Hawk for the first time, she was awfully concerned about him; Kyo tended to have sympathy for creatures with animal parts.

"Ya in the years following, I taught a friend how not to destroy the planet, and one how not to cause herself to sufficate. My friends have some insanely strange powers. One of them is a witch, though her strongest spells lies in creating shields and magical fields, her name is Megan, and I call her Shields. My best friend, her boyfriend, his name is Brian, but I call him Breaker. He can deattach and reattach atoms of non-living things. I also taught him how to weild a scythe as a weapon." Hawk says, "I call it a community service."

Kyo's smile looked like she was mildly amused, but she was merely pleased that a young beast had a place in the world. "Well," she happily purred, "That's a relief." "Though," thought Kyo with a pleasing smile, "I still don't understand why he's not with his friends if they're that close." A gentle breeze broke her of thought and Kyo spoke again, "So is this what you do in your spare time, usually?"

"No, basically I am just walking because my friends are....well lets just say, as I said they are boyfriend and girlfriend, and they get quite involved. And well, my hearing is well above par....she can be quite loud." Hawk shivered. "They are like siblings to me, so the thought of either of them doing anything is slightly disturbing."

Kyo's ears went as flat to her head as she could have made them; she was, again, confused. "I'm going to admin," she began, "Your terms and friends confuse me. Are they close to human or something?"

"Okay, I'll be blunt." Hawk sighed. "They are very human with powers. And well, they are a couple. And they like to..." He whispered in her ear the very exact thing they were doing. "And she becomes very loud, and my good hearing doesn't help."

Kyo lifted her ear up long enough to hear the dirty explanation. She quickly retracted her ear back to it's original position; her face was screwed up in a way that made her cringe, "Humans are disgusting. Blech!" One of her eyes opened enough to make a fuzzy picture, "And you mean to tell me that normal humans do that a lot?" The eye shut again as she shuddered. "How do they keep from reproducing," Kyo inquired, seeing as she was more related to a cat than anything close to a human.

"Eh, piece of rubber. Or a pill. It becomes quite enjoyable from my understanding." Hawk shrugged. "But I have no interest in it right now. I'm pretty monogomous. I'm not going to go around to random women."

Kyo twitched and was back to normal, "But you said that they were boyfriend and girlfriend. Doesn't that usually mean a close relationship that is happy?" At this point I'd like to point out that Kyo wasn't too smart in human terms and was very naive in that world. She twitched again, "My dislike for humans is even greater now."

"Of course it does. They don't stray. According to Breaker shes perfect in everyway, so he couldn't leave her if he tried." Hawk said, "Its just that I haven't found anyone is the reason why. I'd love to have that fun. But hey, I'm patient."

Kyo shrugged and smiled, "I guess that's a positive way of looking at it. That kind of companionship is special." She began to fiddle with the ends of her hair; they were by her ankles, "It's the best time you can have with anyone, yet the best way to describe it is spending time with the best friend you can ever have."
She blushed in the very thought of her ex. husband. "Not to mention that the legal and/or spiritual is part of the best years of you life," said Kyo glowing. The motion of her fingers began to retard.
"Emotional attachment is never bad," she mumbled, and then the motion stopped. Kyo smiled what seemed to be false, "But when the magic dies against your will, then things melt and your left as a mindless puppet. Though I'm sorry, I guess I'm rambling."

Hawk chuckled. "Nah, its fine, I enjoy your rambling." He rested his wing on her again so that the feathers felt very soft and silky. "So fire, I bet that must have been quite a journey to conquer that ability."

Kyo's tail rolled form side to side, "Well, it was for Vyo. For some strange reason, conjoined twins always are divided between good and evil. Unfortunately, I was the evil twin, but I slowly began to change after she died. So I guess it wasn't that hard for me; it was second nature." She laughed, "Though I'll admit that putting out the fires was really hard." Her yellow eyes changed to a mellow grey. The memory Kyo had of her dead sister began to play in her mind like a reel of tape; it was all so vivid. Kyo's breathing began to slow, like in sleep, but she was still wildly awake.
"Vyo didn't deserve that fate," she said in a low but audible voice. "We were very young in human years, and I was a wild child. I went around town and committed crime that made the town mad! I became so bad that it became an everyday occurrence, and then one day I crossed their little red line," Kyo cleared her throat. "There was a bounty for my arrest so that they could kill me in town. Vyo knew of this and hid me; I was powerless to stop her, she hog tied me," she then smiled. "She was the good one, and she was very noble. I changed for her, even though it I knew it was going to be tough."
Kyo looked at Hawk, "So I guess we all have our own little tragedies." Although her eyes were grey, she kept smiling, for there was nothing to stop her. After all of those years, she could finally smile in the memory of her dead sister.

Hawk shook his head. "Your stories make mine look like fairytales. Flying, wind, a little pain." He looked at a cloud about to cover the moon, already it was getting darker as a result. He glared at the cloud and it began to disperse as if it knew he didn't want it to exist. "So the winds of change are truely blowing in your direction then."

Kyo looked slightly worried, but she managed to keep her great smile. "I'm sorry Hawk, I didn't mean to over shadow you," said Kyo, "What you've been through is still amazing. I could never, as you'd guess, sit in a coma-like state for two years. You're a handsome young man, and I'm still questioning whether you really looked like a bird or not." All of her facial expression became mellow joy. Unless of course she read him wrong, Kyo had made a new friend, and that was always a nice experience. She smiled again, trying to reassure that she was happy, even though some sadness stayed because of her memory. There was nothing wrong with that.

"Thats the beauty of wind. M'dear." Hawk said. "You learn a lot of that physics stuff, how particles distort light. Air is full of those particles. I can probably bend the moon light enough to make an image for you." Hawk stood infront of Kyo toward the moon, he towered over her but completely in line with the moon. The wind started to blow and Hawk looked like he was concentrating. He nodded. "Ok, look directly at the center of the moon."
Here Kyo would be able to see his young self. A very young child, but where his mouth and nose should be, a beak. Small wings, underdeveloped. Lined talons for hands and feet. Extremely broad shoulders.
"That was me."

Kyo worried her brow and bit her lower lip, and what she saw was what Hawk was. A sensation that felt like slimy, little lizards were creeping down her spine, starting from her neck, and it made Kyo twitch once. "No offense Hawk," she said in a low voice, "But I'm going to tell you that your younger image is a little creepy." There was a slight chill in the air; What she said was getting to her and Kyo quickly apologized, "I'm sorry Hawk, it's just-I...have never seen some one like that. I'm so sorry if I hurt your feelings. Please don't be upset!" Kyo frowned and her eyes were a sad, deep blue.

"My parents took one picture of me when I was that young and got rid of the mirrors in our house. They didn't want me to see that because they thought I would scare myself and go suicidal as a kid. It wasn't until I was about twelve that I saw that picture. But that is who I was." Hawk said, he smiled. "And this is who I am now. Its almost as if I was never that because I have little memory of it. So don't worry. I had just about the same reaction you did." He chuckled.

She sighed in deep relief, "Oh, thank you." Kyo gazed back up and smiled with yellow eyes, "You had me panic for a second." Her tail began to spring back in action as is flickered from side to side; her ears began to twitch again, "You know, I can do something similar to that, only I use fire." Kyo stood up and turned away from the moon, looking for a darker spot, then a flame began to grow. Eventually details were formed and what appeared was a cat girl in a robed outfit, but her right leg was out to show the scar; the image looked exactly like Kyo, but there was a softer sense about the image that made it different. "That was what Vyo looked like many years ago," said Kyo, concentrating severely on the image shown, "She was a lot prettier than I; she didn't have the grand amount of scars that I have."
