Rory squealed slightly as Ryna started nearing her, but as she heard what the woman said about water, the Unai quickly started splashing her more. At that point she held her down and that was also when Reno attacked. She let the blonde take over tickling her sister, but stayed nearby laughing at the scene.

It was fun watching the two interact, especially like this when Ryna always seemed very standoffish. Rory chuckled as she said, "Minnow, you may want to release the Shark before you suffocate her." Of course, the blonde wasn't done just yet and continued to tickle the woman until she would indeed give up.

Though she was trying to not think of her so much, Rory did wonder if when Faline acted like this, she seemed more approachable. Granted, it was a bit more difficult to get the woman to let loose like that and when you did, it was usually when they were in their natural forms rather than human. She was really one to rather be on all fours than a 'pale blood'.

Even the way she retreated once free read very much like her older half; perhaps that was just how twins were! It was then that Rory caught the look in Reno's eye as her attention shifted to her. Before she could move away in the water, the short haired woman had managed to wrap herself around the Unai and if it weren't for the fact that the water was nearly up to her chest, Rory was sure she would have fallen.

She did stumble though as she regained her footing from the weight of the woman. Laughing she said, "Well, fortunately Minnows aren't known for their ability to feast on Seals." She then leaned backwards, pulling them both into the water. Using that as a change, she shifted into her hound form and wriggled away from the woman, swimming towards the other end of the beach a little bit.

Poking her head out of the water, a sound that almost seemed like laughter came from the creature as she looked back to where she had gone under yet. She knew Reno should be fine and was more than likely already plotting another attack.

Abi studied Zero; out of all of them, he and Ryna seemed to be the most withheld and at that point he seemed to be a fountain of information. While he didn't tell her everything, the Forest Unai didn't care to know it all either, she was learning what she wanted to know and that was that.

So this being he was in contract with was truly Akina, the description the male used of him matter not and as he started to describe the other, he sounded more like he was in love with him than anything else. She shifted her weight to one side as she merely listened as he reassured that Akina would not harm herself, Rory or Faline. A smirk came across her face as he brought up a reason why he was keeping to himself so much. "Perhaps if you had listened, you would know that we are more of a trustworthy species than many others you have run into. Though, my main concern is indeed if your companion will pose a problem to our mission. You say he will not and I am happy with that, I care of little else at this point."

When he brought up creatures of darkness and the underworld, the woman barked out a laugh that probably seemed out of nature for her. She turned and started to walk towards him, pausing near him enough to say, "Sweety, we're called Hell Hounds by the humans, such things are more familiar to us than you would think." She then continued on, planning to join the others back at the water.

Zero had given her the information she wanted and knowing they may have yet another on their side was a more welcoming thought than she had expected. It made her feel a bit better about them starting the search for Faline as well for if Rory were with her, Reno would probably want to tag along and Abi had a feeling Zero wouldn't let his sister wander in the woods without protection.
