Broken World

Dante is sitting down with her and she is facing him as he watches every movement and reads her body as he nods. "It started to happen after the attack in which I lost control." she nods as she holds the cup in her hands "Sometimes, it feels like I just relax and am lighter."

She thinks and looks around a little worried they are outside of the wall having such a discussion. "I understand you may wish to keep this a secret but do we need to be out here?"

Dante looks to her and smiles as he laughs some. "You danced with someone with snake slit eyes in a snake mating dance and are worried about being out here?"

She looks to him and opens her mouth before she closes it shaking her head starting to laugh about how absurd this all sounds. "Okay given, you have a point." she looks around sighing hearing the birds and such in the distance wasn't that bad but over her projector it is safer "So what was your hunter ranking rated at?"

Dante smiles as she seems calmer and nods. "I was ranked as an Intermediate rank three." she jerks and looks to him as that's higher than Gregory "However I am more interested in something else."

She swallows and looks to him feeling her heart skip a beat. "Would you be willing to teach me your style of fighting? I am willing to teach you how I moved in exchange and with both of us we might be able to create a truly new dance."

She looks to him and thinks as she nods her head. "I feel something, I don't know what." she looks to him and looks to the side "Something about you, it draws me in."

Dante looks to her and nods as he thinks. "I have a thought, you can laugh if you want, that in the past during the City Wars people mixed animal genes with humans." she looks to him and thinks nodding as she can understand it and the timing over a millennia ago would bury all traces of their actions "I think you may have recessive or dormant genes that react on a primal level to me."

She gets a smile and thinks about it and looks to him. "Why do you think that?" she thinks as he moves close her heart starts quicker then he moves more and she tilts without thought as her lips part but he stops just short "Why stop?"

He softly rubs her lips with his finger as he leans by her ear. "Are you even thinking or acting alone? You are hard to resist too." He leans back as she is panting and it isn't until he moves back tossing a piece of raw meat in his mouth does she relax. Her eyes open wide as he nods then speaks. "We synced up in our fight and I think that is why my eyes shifted."

She is fighting with her thoughts since if he is right. She lusts for a beast and not only that is part one too! Looking to him she blinks as he holds out a small cube of warm, bloody meat. She watches him putting it in her mouth and starts to chew as she finds it has some resistance but overall, she is upset she likes it.

"You know I lived for several weeks outside of the city with beasts. I fought every day just survive and one day I came across a Titan classed snake. I call him old man mostly but dad at times. For some reason he didn't hiss and blow me away but instead fed me then took me to the nest. I lived at that nest for a long time and that is where I met my companions, siblings, the nestlings, and mother."

She looks up and thinks a moment before she swallows. "Dante, are we humans or animals if what you say is true?" Dante looks to her and sighs as she is caught up on the wrong thing "Oh don't look like I am missing something this is important to me."

Dante stops than nods as he smiles softly as he thinks of her feelings. "Forgive me I wasn't thinking enough about your feelings on this." she looks to him as he moves and gives her a hug "My stance is I am me. People can call me whatever they want but all that matters is what I think inside. I feel I honestly am an animal."

She looks up and shakes her head. "But if you are an animal than why kill and protect the city? How can you say you are an animal and do all that? It doesn't make sense."

Dante smiles standing as he holds a hand down she takes it. "Let me ask you a question." she nods "Don't animals kill to eat and guard locations for various reasons?" she blinks and nods "I simply am guarding an area because in that area are things I like and want to keep safe. I kill because I hunger and desire food. I don't kill wantonly and never have, to the point I have caused those top families confusion."

She is thinking and after a few moments looks to him. "I, I want to be more like you." Dante looks to her and after a few moments smiles "Why are you smiling or do you know a way?"

"You want to know a secret?" she nods "I can speak with snakes as well as my wolf." she gasps looking to him "First was the snakes, I am not sure what the trigger was but one day while I lived with them. We just suddenly could speak with each other and someone I trusted tested my genetics. I have extra links, for whatever the hell that means."

She thinks and looks up as they are walking. "You think perhaps something about that is what makes it possible?" he nods as she tilts her head down and thinks "Would it be possible to test if others are also capable to do it?" He seems lost in thought as she falls into thought herself.

Thinking as she follows him she looks up gasping as she sees a large Forest Tiger eating a boar and looks to him as he leads her out. She wants to stop this but can't help but follow and as the tiger lifts its head he speaks softly. "Hello beautiful. It has been some time since we last shared a meal. How are you doing?"

She looks as the sound is familiar however the scents and looks don't match. She goes to get aggressive then he changes and her eyes widen as it looks like the male from before just more, interesting. She is now watching curiously as it comes closer and moves facing it standing up fully as they are eye to eye.

Dante is going forward and she seems to relax as he takes his canine look once more. He knows how smart they are and hoped his voice was enough but it wasn't. "How have you been beautiful?" he smiles and keeps going forward as he lets go of her hand and she stops happily "I haven't seen you for far too long. Perhaps this time I can pet you properly?"

She sees it walking up and leaves the other as it advances on its own. It had a few others with it last time so which of those creatures was that one? Ignoring that other one for now as this one coming towards her while not making aggressive sounds she doesn't know what it says, dumb canine.

She moves forward and starts to circle it as he comes to a stop now allowing her to sniff. She doesn't scent another female so this male wasn't with that other one recently so what is it to him? Ignoring the other one it keeps moving and moves like an attack to test him seeing if this was a brave male.

Dante is relaxed as she isn't aggressive while she sniffs at him as she circles and finds her acting rather cute thus fighting hard to not pet her. He catches her doing a quick lunge at him but doesn't flinch away instead he just turns to face her and reaches up. "Boop."

She stops in place and looks to her nose as he just poked it making a sound. Looking to him she blinks confused. Now what in the hell was that? She leans towards him lifting a paw and pushes on his nose as she growls some in return.

She stands there watching confused but seeing this live is a transcendence sort of feeling. She was thinking until the tiger goes to eat him and of all things. He looks over and boops her nose in which the tiger stops and then the world breaks. The damned tiger boops him back! She is shaking her head as something was truly and unquestionable wrong in the world.

Dante smiles turning to face her fully now as she was just beyond adorable and he wants to cuddle with her here and now. He moves and puts a hand on the side of her neck rubbing a few times. He watches her tilting her head and decides to try it. "Hello my friend."

She finds what she did embarrassing and puts her paw down. What was that even for? Now watching him he reaches up starting to rub plus scratch and oh, that feels good. She tilts her head and starts to purr as she hears a voice however right now it best not interrupt. "You interrupt and I eat you."

Dante gets a quirk of a smile as she is purring more and getting closer as he realizes she didn't know he spoke so threatened someone to not stop it. Shaking his head he feels he has grasped some of the truth. He has to have a connection to start it and once started it can grow. "Beautiful are you able to come with me to see a world you haven't and live a life of spoiled fun plus hunting?"

She purrs and tilts her head realizing who must be talking. "How can I understand a canine?" after his response she looks to him "You would take me even though I lost my child to those bears?" when he offers to kill them she shakes and agrees as she nuzzles him "I will follow you."
