[E-PRP] Terrors in the Night [Moon Whisper x Farvardin] FIN!

[Bluedemonwolf]

Farvardin looked up at the sky as night fell and wondered how she had managed to get herself so terribly lost once again. "See I said I should have stuck to the path. I had been on it so many times before and managed to get to point A to point B with no issue." The head in the middle said.

"But the shiny thing! It was just there in the grass off the path! I needed it!" The head on the left replied with a whine. The head on the right sighed as the other two began to bicker. It was always like this for her. While she was really just one mind and really just one personality, her other heads like to voice different opinions or options or she used them to talk to herself. She's gotten some odd looks from others before because of it but she didn't mind it. It was what she was used to and really the expression two heads are better than one was really true when there were three heads.

Looking back down to the tree filled land she was lost in she looked around trying to find some point of interest to help direct her. As she was looking she noticed something off in the distance. It was faint but there was a light in the darkness. Was it a fire from one of those strange two legged creatures? Or another animal that glowed? It moved faintly and she began to think it was another animal. Perhaps they would know where she was and how she could get home.

She began to run in the direction of the glow making no effort to be quiet. Thus she crashed noisily through the woods, twigs and small branches snapping as she stepped on them or ran into them without care. Her tail dragged behind her catching on fallen leaves, brush, and any undergrowth. It added an odd noise that would only be heard when she wasn't stepping on anything that make a noise from breaking. As she drew closer to the light she saw it wasn't a big light at all and hung above the ground. It disappeared at one point (as Moon Whisper turned to head back to the cave) and she despaired for a moment thinking it was gone forever. It came partially back so she began to run faster.

The noise she was making could be heard growing louder and louder until it stopped entirely when she reached the edge of the tree line and stopped to catch her breath. All three heads were down with the eyes closed as she heavily panted to get her breath back. It was a rather creepy noise and sight as one set of eyes opened to shine red irises from with the tree line. Then another set opened followed by the third set, all three close together without giving any idea of what creature it was that was now looking at Moon Whisper from the darkness.

It took a solid minute for Farvardin to catch her breath. Once she did she noticed that the light had moved and wasn't as visible anymore. It looked like there was a cave or something up ahead and the light was faintly glowing from inside of it. She tilted one of her heads wondering where the creature who had the light had gone. Were they still nearby or did they go away, perhaps deeper into whatever it was up ahead that was obscuring the light?

Deciding that just pondering it wasn't going to answer her question she stepped out from the shadows and trees and into the more clear area. She opened her mouth on her middle head to call out to whoever was out there but stopped short when a sharp pain tugged on her tail. "OUCH!" She yelped turning around to growl at whatever had her tail. There was nothing there but plants... in fact it looked like since she dragged her tail on the ground that it got stuck in a prickly bush. "Ow ow ow ow ow oooooowwwww." She whined moving to work on getting her tail unstuck. It took her a minute to try and carefully remove her tail, two heads focused on the task and the third keeping a lookout.

As Farvardin worked on freeing her tail, her third head noticed the stranger step out from behind a fallen tree staring down at her. "Uh.. hey... um... heads? Uh.. there's.... there's...." The head stammered trying to notify the other heads of the stranger but was ignored by the other heads as they both snapped 'not now!' before they began to mutter about what a pain this was.

Tail finally free she turned around making sure to hold the tail up high so it wouldn't get caught on anything else. As she did she finally noticed Moon Whisper who was trying to look intimidating. "Why didn't you say there was someone there Din head!?" The middle head angry whispered towards the left head. "I tried but you yelled at me not now." The left head sobbed. It wasn't actually crying but it did look like it was going to. "Never mind that. Let's see if they know where we are!" The right head replied before facing forward towards the stranger, "Why hello there! Um... do you know where this is?"

As she talked she began to walk towards Moon Whisper. She was pretty eager to find out if this stranger knew where they were at and possibly get directions home so she was moving rather quickly. The distance was quickly closing and she wasn't paying attention to where she was going. Instead she was taking details of this fierce looking Soquili. It looked like she had paws and tail like her and under the cloak it looked like she was wearing something else. What she had noticed was the telltale sign of a shifter but Farvardin had never encountered one before so common sense about shifters did not apply to her.

As she rushed over, preoccupied by trying to figure out what else Moon Whisper was wearing, she missed seeing a small dip in the ground, not quite a hole but a depression in the ground. Since she missed it she stepped down wrong, one leg going down further than expected making her fall. She landed on the ground with a large thud, one of her skulls flying off her head. She laid there for a moment, embarrassed beyond belief with her cheeks turning red. (wc: 374)

Farvardin closed her eyes while laying on the ground doing her best to fight the embarrassment she was feeling. A soft noise made her open one set of eyes. She opened them just in time to see the stranger dropping off her helmet a few feet away from her. Noticing the skittering movement as Moon Whisper moved back to her original spot made a light bulb click on. Those were movements of someone scared. She thought back about how she got here and her limited interactions and inwardly groaned. She couldn't blame the stranger for being scared, not with the way she came crashing out of the forest.

Rolling over she settled her legs underneath herself choosing to remain in a laying position on the ground. Smaller things were less scary, right? She reached out one her heads to snag her helmet to drag it closer to her. She'd put it back on when she stood up. "Ah... ah...." She paused to clear her throat unsure of how exactly to proceed now, "Ah... thank you for bringing my helmet back. And I'm... I'm sorry. I probably frightened you with how I approached. I was just so excited to find someone who might be able to help me." She paused to look sheepishly at Moon Whisper for a moment before looking back at the ground. "You see... I've lost my way. I'm trying to find the wolf rock fork so I can go home. I should have stayed on the path but I got distracted and now I can't find the path again." (wc: 262)

Farvardin wasn't sure how to take the silence. Was the stranger still scared, scared speechless perhaps? The two outer heads tilted in different directions as she watched the stranger look up to the sky. She also looked up wondering if there was something going on up there. She didn't see anything but the moon with some clouds. She looked back down to see Moon Whisper move to go grab something. She wondered what the other was doing but it was quickly solved when she came back with a lantern in her mouth.

She smiled when Moon approached her, her own tail wagging happily. She cocked her head when Moon pawed the ground and then turned towards the cave. She wasn't quite sure what she wanted but seeing the slight tail wag and the glance back to her she thought that maybe the stranger wanted her to follow her.

Standing up slowly she grabbed her helmet and worked on getting it back on her head. "So I take it you don't know where wolf rock fork is? It's a rock in the shape of a wolf in a fork in the path. It's what I call it at least. Don't know if it goes by anything else." She said slowly following Moon. She didn't want to spook her again after all. "Oh! I never introduced myself! So sorry." She said, "I'm Far... Var.... Din!" The right head started followed quickly by the middle and left heads. The right head shot a deadpan look at the other two at the left head at least had the decency to look sheepish. "Farvardin. Sorry... I guess my other heads get too excited and just feel the need to chip in." (wc: 286)

Farvardin tilted one of her heads at the soft wuff, clearly recognizing it as a laugh. She smiled softly a little confused as to what was so funny but more than happy to go with it. She followed Moon to the cave not too pressed to get an answer on if Moon knew how to get her home, or really to even go home. She had a potential new friend right here after all!

She stopped, making sure to keep several feet away from Moon, when Moon sat down. She watched at Moon pointed up towards the moon and then huffed softly. She tilted her head confused. Why wasn't she speaking? Did she take a vow of silence? Did she not speak to strangers? Did they still count as strangers since Farvardin had introduced herself? Introduce herself.... wait! Maybe this was how she introduced herself! She thought back to what Moon had done. Pointed the moon and huffed softly. Moon....light? quiet? Quiet Moon? "Oh! Yeah that makes sense! Quiet Moon! It's a nice name. Nice to meet you Quiet Moon." She said with such confidence and pride that she had figured out the name.

She had been so busy trying to figure out the name that she missed the charm and scars being revealed. She did note the other scars that showed from the cloak not reaching them but didn't say anything about them. She found out the hard way that some take offense to scars being pointed out. "So.... um.... We're waiting for day? I can stay here and sleep or if you want I can sleep out there." She offered not wanting to make Moon uncomfortable, granted she'd much rather stay close and get to know her new friend better. (wc: 292)

Farvardin watched Quiet Moon (who was really Moon Whisper) point to the back of the cave and nod. Oh so she could go sleep back there! "Thanks! I'll go to the back and settle there for the night." She said taking a few steps in that direction, "I'm not usually an early riser so feel free to wake me up if you wake before me and want to get going." She made no mention of the fact that she could be a little hard to wake up since she's never really had anyone to try and wake her before. Reaching the back of the cave she looked around for a good spot before circling around and then laying down. She tucked her heads in as best as she could and closed her eyes to go to sleep. A smile was on all of her heads as she thought about her new friend and that how in the morning she'd be on her way home, never expecting that she'd get to meet someone new as well. (wc: 175)
