[color=gainsboro]"And yeah, Link is perfectly fine."[/COLOR] He added in response to Eilidh's question regarding his name. [color=gainsboro]"When I was sixteen, I was a bit of a [i]rapscallion[/i] and after an unfortunate incident with a girl found myself face to face with the vengeful wrath of the Triple Goddess. I was a privileged rich kid, I had my share of women, but I found one that didn't want me. I couldn't have that so I made her fall in love with me, showered her in affection, gifts, everything a person needed to feel wanted and safe. When the time came to 'seal the deal',"[/COLOR] A long inhale echoed around the kitchen, as Lincoln gathered his thoughts. He hadn't ever explained this next part to anyone, not even Kennedy. [color=gainsboro]"I hid a webcam in the room that broadcast the entire event as I used a permanent marker to outline every perceived physical flaw on her naked body. In her utter humiliation, the girl became a vessel to the Virgin Aspect of the Triple Goddess. She cursed me, turned me into what I am now and ever since I've been trying to find redemption for that night. Found a way to use my curse for good, even found a home in the Titans Academy before its door closed."[/COLOR] He began to pace, his tone becoming more urgent. [color=gainsboro]"Somewhere out there though, there's another [i]beast[/i] like me. I saw the body, I saw the blood. The local police back in Midway had already seen me in action as a probationary Titan. They didn't want to do the legwork, they wanted to close a case. Hauled me in, said the claws fit. It was a damn kangaroo court. Even my own father, Senator Thorpe, didn't want to prove his own son innocent. Too busy appealing to his voters, too eager to hold onto his power."[/COLOR] The Wolf growled bitterly. Link's ear suddenly twitched as his icy blue gaze moved first toward the wall, but his eyes pivoted skyward, all the while his head remained perfectly still. [color=gainsboro]"Wait,"[/COLOR] Link paused taking a quick sniff. [color=gainsboro]"There's someone-"[/COLOR] He began before pausing just as suddenly. The Wolf's nostrils flared as the cold iris suddenly flared red. [color=gainsboro]"No, there's [i]something[/i] in the walls."[/COLOR] Link growled, the top of his ears suddenly began to shift into a pointed shape whilst his fingernails grew long, curling into razor-sharp points.[/INDENT][/INDENT][/COLOR]
