The stars aren't right!(Helena/Courage Wolf)

"6 days after today. The caravan doesn't move very quickly." Cindy answers, shrugging. "Riding or walking would be faster, but few monsters will attack a caravan."

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena groans loudly at the idea of having to spend another week in a wagon, but something in her gut tells her she has even less time then that to finish things up. The state of the moon was getting to her a little more each day as the massive silver orb in the sky only grew larger.

"6 more days... How long... How long until the full moon..." She asked haltingly after a moment, as if asking that particular question was more then a little difficult for her to put to voice.

"A few more days." Jasmine answers curtly, studying Cindy. The girl's face becomes unreadable as she answers Jasmine's gaze.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Cindy's unreadable visage made Helena a little nervous for some reason, wondering what she was thinking... Regardless, it made little difference at this point. Closing her eyes and forcing herself to not think about it, Helena hopped out of the wagon and took another walk, staying in touch with Jasmine.

*Anything I should know about Cindy?* She asked after a moment, enjoying stretching her legs in the open air.

The sun has yet to reach its peak, but the weather is already getting warmer, though rainclouds are approaching from the north. The hilly forest is starting to turn into plains in the distance as the wagons rattle on along the road, even though the drivers seem to be paying more attention to Helena than the road.

*She hasn't told me much more than she has to you. I think she grew up in the streets, and she's had a hard life.*

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena smiles and waves and calls out friendly hellos to the drivers, wondering why she was the center of attention, she was dressed and wasn't too much of a mess... Didn't stop her from making sure though...

*That's regrettable. Most we can do is be friendly and accepting I suppose. I think I'll join her for her little walk tonight, see if I can get her to open up a little more.*

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

*That sounds like a good idea.*

It's not long until the caravan stops for lunch once again, and Jasmine starts cooking with Cindy helping her, grilling chicken legs on the fire.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

The smell of Chicken starts to drive Helena insane, and in response, she wanders off, prodding Strike and showering her in attention and questions since her friend seemed to enjoy it. She wondered if the spider would come down for bedtime snuggles again, that had been nice.

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

The giant spider has been following the wagons through the forest, and Helena finds her near the wagons, though far enough to be out of sight, immediately glomping Helena as she appears.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena laughs and hugs the Spider, giving her a quick peck on the head. "Hello!" She says happily, continuing to follow the path of the wagons with her bestest 8 legged friend ever.

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

As Helena and Strike continue down the path, Helena sees a flock of ravens fly by, each of their heads turning to look at her in turn before disappearing into the forest.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena ponders the Ravens for a moment, never having seen a Corvid that large before. Watching them go by, she turns to give Strike another big hug before heading back, now getting rather hungry...

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

When Helena gets back to the wagons, the others are already eating, and Jasmine is sitting near the fire with Cindy, with a bowl of chicken nearby for Helena.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena takes the bowl, waving at the others, and destroys the food before she has a chance to smell it any more, finding the odd problem even more annoying then the itching! It took enough self control to not scratch herself constantly without having to worry about drooling over every piece of meat she came across. Still, she enjoyed the meal immensely and belched cheerfully, staring into the flames when she was done per usual.

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

After everyone has finished eating, the campfire is soon put out and the caravan starts rolling forward again. As the trio gets in their wagon again, Cindy pulls out a deck of cards from her pack, starting to deal cards for the now-familiar game.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena still can't win, because the now familiar thoughts of her current predicament keep her fairly distracted. Regardless she sticks with the game, getting better at it as she goes, still mulling over the number 7, although now that things had apparently gone back to normal, she wondered about that particular problem a little less.

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

The day goes by slowly, but finally the night starts to fall and the caravan stops near a small village, with wooden houses and thatched roofs. Some of the people from the village come to talk with the drivers, and a couple drivers head to the village tavern.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Watching some of the drivers head into the small town, Helena just gets the fire started and sits in front of it for a moment. *I don't know what you may be planning, But the more Help I can get the better. Still, if you must go in there and terrorise the villagers...*

 

[Hentaispider]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Jasmine seems to consider her options for a moment. *I suppose I'll help you. I doubt there's anything interesting in there, anyway.*

Cindy has somehow managed to disappear, while campfires are being made, and the remaining drivers seem to be making their dinners.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

*Appreciate it, I know you'd rather be out having a little fun...*

Looking around for Cindy, Helena curses, not believing she hadn't noticed her slipping off again, and shrugs. This came before her curiosity sadly and she closed her eyes dutifully and sought out the flame...
