Room 244: Lone wolf

[Sean Hall]

There was a small animated origami wolf sitting outside of Tala's room. It was pacing back and forth and howling silently.

[Tala Davis]

Tala smiled and picked up the small paper creation, she shouldered her gym bag and brought everything in with her.

[Sean Hall]

The wolf struggled free before running up Tala's arm. She could see it was actually a note.

[Tala Davis]

"I'm thinking Sean has a few secrets that he didn't share the other day." She moved over to her bed and sat down, remembering the dragonfly and that Sean didn't mention anything about being able to control paper in anyway.

"He smells of thunderstorms." Ren stood on hind legs and a batted at the wolf.

"He reeks of human male..." Aolani corrected her.

"He is a human male, numb nose, besides, I'm surprised you could smell anything from up there on your throne. I was closer to him, he smells of a coming storm."


"I didn't inspect him so closely, but they all keep secrets now and then, it's a human trait, they don't tell everyone everything right away. When he feels safe and trusts us, he'll tell us. Just like you, Cloud. It just takes time."

She unfolded the note.

[Sean Hall]

The note read:

I may not have been completely truthful when talking to you before, and would like an opportunity to explain myself. If you aren't too angry with me for having lied and are willing to hear me out come to the roof tonight at midnight. I'll explain as best I can. The wolf is yours to keep, he should be animated for a few more days.

-Sean

When Tala was done reading the note it actually refolded itself into a "irritated" looking wolf.

[Tala Davis]

She patted the wolf with her index finger and set him on her desk.

"I suppose he does trust us. We shall go see what he has to say, do you both want to come?"

"I will, I liked him, he likes caves."

"Why should I go, you never take me out unless it is to hunt."

"Well, you tried the other day and offered to let Cassie pet you, think of it as a reward."

"All the good that did me, the creature poked me...fine, I will go...and I WILL be good."

"Thank you." Tala actually stood and moved over and petted Aolani.
