Comments on En Litari II All Comments

Wraith walked with En in the direction of where the white haired males friends had been camping. They had spent sometime in the festival of the city and had some food whilst they were there, in addition to carrying a bag of extra food with them for En's companions. As the campsite was getting closer, Wraith looked down at the ground, his thoughts running through his mind about the underground arena and how those involved had seen En's face, as well as seeing the pair of them work together. He knew he had to do something. The shifters footsteps stopped causing the prince to look back at him. 

"This is as far as I'll go, I don't think it's wise for your friends to see me again, not after their first reaction." Wraith said looking directly into En's eyes. The camp was in clear sight of the two of them and was only 200m or so in front. "Here." He said handing En the bag of food. "You'll need that for you and your group." 

After Wraith reached into one of the pockets of his bulletproof vest and wrapped a necklace around the golden eyed males neck. The design was a black stone encased in metal wire, the stone itself had a iridescent shine to it when the light hit it. "This is an enchanted Labradorite crystal, I want you to take it. It will allow you to shapeshift twice a day, if you see anyone who looks like they are from the underground or those who we saw before, transform and run." The worry on Wraith's face was as plain as day. "And if you think they are around, don't go into any large bodies of water."

     The farther the two walked from the festival, the heavier the tension from before weighed over them. Safety in numbers was gone now, and even then there was no telling if people that vicious would care about harming innocent people to get to them. Those memories, as much as En didn't want them around, surfaced once again. He was grateful for the cold this time, it was able to mask his shiver.
     As the campsite came into view, En perked slightly. He opened his mouth to say something, but then noticed the lack of footsteps he could hear. Slowing to a stop himself, he turned to look at the concerned yet stoic look on Wraith's face. "What's wrong?" En asked. His expression softened at the mention of his friends. "Don't worry about them! I think this might be good, actually. If they get to talk to you again then--"
     His words were cut off by the necklace put over him. The prince blinked, then looked down at it. It was a beautiful stone, and one that radiated a strange power. He looked back up at Wraith, his own expression getting more and more concerned. "H-Hey," he started lowly. "This is helpful and all, but what about you? They wanted you more. What if you end up facing them alone?" He took a step forward and put a hand on the shifter's arm. "You should stay with me and my friends! They're a lot stronger than they look. W-We can help!" There was a twinge of desperation in his voice.

Wraith watch En as he took a step forward and placed a hand on his arm, explaining that his friends could help them. The shifter locked eyes with En, his face showing that he wasn't going to budge on this but when heard the desperation in his voice, the mask began to crack. He knew En had a point but.....Wraith looked back to the city, back to his territory, his home. He sighed deeply "Alright." He said begrudgingly before turning back to the white haired male and gave another, but softer, sigh. "Let's head to the camp." He said. 

The pair of them walked into the campsite, Wraith observing the entire layout, looking for blind spots or vantage points. As they did so he could hear the sound of footsteps and voices, he faintly recognised them as En's friends. His first instincts were to transform and vanish up a nearby tree, he turned and saw En give him an encouraging look, and fought down the urge to transform and waited to see what the reaction to him would be.
