A Few Tests

Dawn was sitting on the stairs biting her nails. She felt on edge and she had paced for a while. Walking the same spot that Lucian did The floor was showing a bit of it wear and very light discoloration where they paced. She felt watched. Lucian had left a few hours ago, she didn't like it and she felt anxious like she might be sick. She rubbed her face on her shoulder, and inhaled she could still smell him on her and that calmed her a bit.

She jumped when the sound of a door opened and she stood up. Dawn backed up the stairs a bit. A few people came in and she recognized Colbalt. She didn't like this, what were they doing? Why were they in here? She felt threatened and the animal came forward, her senses sharpened and she tensed like she might strike out. Colbalt held up his hands trying to show he wasn't attempting something, but she didn't buy it. The others looked very ready.
