But the twins had no plans of turning in for the night. [color=palevioletred]"Me and my brother will be going out for a while. Get something to eat and see the town,"[/color] she dangled the room keys at the young man behind the counter. [color=palevioletred]"I'll leave this to you to keep. I don't wanna lose it while we're walking around,"[/color] she gave the man a charming smile. The young man, the son of the apartelle's owner, took one look at Claudia, swallowed and then meekly nodded as he took the keys from Claudia's slender fingers. "Brother, huh? That's good," he muttered under his breath as he tucked the keys into a cubby beneath the counter. Caius was leaning against the far wall, a few feet away from where the counter was. [color=turquoise]"What was that?"[/color] he asked the young man in an amused tone of voice. The man behind the counter blinked and glanced towards Caius. [i]Did he just hear what I said?[/i] he thought to himself and then shook his head. The man was too far away from him. It was impossible. "Uh, nothing, nothing," he replied anyway. He sneaked a glance at Claudia as she walked past him and out the door. Caius followed his sister outside. [color=turquoise]"Humans do find you attractive, don't they?"[/color] he commented in the same amused voice. Claudia shrugged. [color=palevioletred]"I know,"[/color] she said confidently. [color=palevioletred]"Works well for me. I don't need to like them back anyway,"[/color] she began making her way towards the dark alleyway behind the apartelle. Caius followed her and a few seconds later, two huge black wolves padded out. One had streaks of brown fur while the other had streaks of white fur. Unlike the usual werewolves, these two don't walk on two legs like how humans do. Despite their striking similarity to plain, wild wolves, their larger size makes all the difference. Both had no idea why they looked different from how their pack was. But because of their almost "normal" looking appearance and their immense speed as compared to everyone else in the pack, the two were almost always sent in as scouts. [color=turquoise][i]There will be no need to attack, Claudia. Keep that in mind. Survey the scene,[/i][/color] Ciaus reminded his sister. [color=palevioletred][i]Sure, sure. I don't plan on making a scene unless I need to,[/i][/color] Claudia answered. [i]You better not,[/i] came a stern male voice in both wolves' head. [color=palevioletred][i]Oh, hi, Darric. You miss hearing us in your head?[/i][/color] There was a short chuckle. [i]Yes, you can say that.[/i] [color=turquoise][i]Or you just wanna know first hand what we see.[/i][/color] [i]Yes, that too.[/i] [color=turquoise][i]You're in the edge of town,[/i][/color] It wasn't a question but a statement. [i]Sharp as ever, Caius,[/i] Darric commended. [i]Now, go.[/i] Two blurs of black blanketed by the night's darkness shot out from the apartelle's shadow. The two wolves covered a large territory at once, their sharp sense of smell, sight and hearing taking in all the information they can get, keeping in the shadows to avoid being seen. Claudia heard the rumors about the unrest, of strange vampires coming into town. She visited Mystiq and heard of a new owner. She passed by the diner where Jac was. She instantly smelled her, a curious mix of cinnamon, herbs and rum. Caius on the other hand, visited where the Originals had taken residence. Even at a distance, he could sense and smell them. Three ancient vampires. And curiously, a witch. She smelled differently from Jac but she was a witch all the same. He stopped and raised his snout to the air. As a light breeze blew, he knew that there were others who have arrived in town as well. [i]Interesting,[/i] came Darric's voice in the twins' heads.
