After sorting things out with Emilia, Karena sat in her office, and dropped her head into her hands. With the way things were… Karena knew that she had a decision to make. And as always, it seemed to revolve around Cleo. Her niece wasn’t one for peace… she was typically chaos, always getting into trouble, but she had a big heart. She’d want to help her classmates, her friends, but… Karena believed that Zoe wouldn’t want that, at least not yet, and Karena herself didn’t want it. Life had changed, and Cleo… deserved normalcy, and she didn’t believe that Klamath Falls would have that, in the  next few months. The teenagers were attacked, and so many of them were changed… that Karena couldn’t believe anything god was going to happen. 

It would be wise to get Cleo out of town… Emilia could go with her… With that in mind, Karena began to make preparations for that, her heart heavy. She couldn’t go with them, not when she was needed here, no matter how much she wanted to. Two plane tickets, and a place to stay… It took Karena some time to organise, but in the end, she was satisfied that both her girls would be safe, and that Emilia could handle anything that they might come across. 

That sorted, she spoke with both girls a time, making sure they understood what she had done, and that they would be leaving soon. And then she just sat at her desk, dropping her head into her hands and sighing heavily, closing her eyes tight. Tired, and heartsick, Karena sat there for another few moments, before sitting back, and opening her eyes, beginning to plan everything she needed to do. [i]… talk with Zoe… go to the site of the attack, after talking… check on the attacked teenagers…[/i]. The last bit was perhaps the most important to Karena. 

She would not have out of control, vicious pups running around her town. She knew that Zoe was more than capable of handling the pups, but… She shifted, hand going for a hidden knife nearby as a young woman stepped in her doorway. The young woman was, in a word, sleek. Beautiful. And to Karena, a warrior. Wary, Karena watched her a moment. [color=plum]”Who, and what are you?”[/color]. 

The woman smiled, a smile that sent a shiver up Karena’s spine, it had an almost predator look to it. [color=firebrick]”My name is Selena, and my father recommended I come to you, if I needed a little bit of extra help. Abraham. As for what i am… I am a werecat. A panther, to be exact.”[/color] she said with a little bit of amusement. 

Which did nothing to ease Karena’s wariness. She narrowed her gaze, calmly sitting back, knife at the ready. [color=plum]”Show me your eyes”[/color]. This seemed to cause the girl to falter, appearing slightly uneasy, and Karena shifted slightly, ready for an attack. But the girl didn’t attack, instead she looked away, seeming to think on her words a moment. 

[color=firebrick]”They’re blue. I’ve taken an innocent life, against my will. I wasn’t fast.. No, I was too fast, i couldn’t change my movement, and they… they used her as a shield”[/color] She said softly, her voice full of emotion and regret, which gave Karena pause. She supposed that it was possible, and for a moment, her heart went out for the woman. 

Her voice was hard and flat however when she said [color=plum]”Show me”[/color]. It was simply not something that she could ignore. Selina grimaced, and looked away once more, before looking back to Karena, who was ready for the sight before her. The young woman had, it seemed, good control, only allowing her eyes to change, and nothing else, her eyes glowing a blue that simply couldn’t be described. Despite knowing where they came from, Karena couldn’t doubt that they were beautiful. 

The woman blinked, and her eyes returned to their human shade. [color=firebrick]:Satisfied?”[/color] The girl said, some annoyance in her voice, and Karena nodded, [color=plum]”For now”[/color]
