Immediately Shadow and Sorrel disappeared into Jex's hood, chirping with terror. A chill wind brushed through the tent, and Nix calmed down for a moment. She didn't seem human anymore. Her and Ghost - fought. Jex always thought they were too close to fight.
As Lux held his sister protectively, Jex sat, shaking violently. He was scared to his souls. He knew he shouldn't be. But seeing that wild gleam in Nix's eyes... reminded him of his past. How some humans were brutal. Monsters.

Nix lifted her head and sniffed at the gal between two bits of bark and then she turned to ghost, the two needed to only share a look before they both knew what they wanted. Nix turned back to the others and she flicked her eyes from the gap bark to the doorway and then back again ,she couldn't speak with her mind as a wolven child but she knew that humans sometimes understood her simply from her body language.
nix loved being in her wolven mind though, it reminded her if her childhood in the mountains and in the rivers with the pack, the times hunting and playing and fighting and such like. She loved it when her eyes blurred and her sense tightened up and her clawed hands and teeth seemed sharper even though they knew they weren't, she loved her childhood and she loved this side of her ,no matter what others thought of her in this state. And she knew their thoughts ,animal senses and all that gave her the power to sense their feelings a little

Lux whipped his knife from his sheath, but didn't use it just yet. He turned to Jex.
"Did you know about this?" he demanded, but his face went softer when he saw Jex's. Still terrified. Like a child.
Something horrible must have happened to him in the past for this to happen. Something haunting - something that scarred him for life.
Fingers flexing on the knife, he turned to Nix.

Nix rolled her eyes as her message simply rolled off the humans, she wanted to leave the tent and find the smell that smelt like the plants her mother would bring to her and the pups when they were ill or sad but all the humans did was pull out claws and hold them at her. And claws were no match for nix with claws on her hands and bare feet and bone sharpened teeth, she would leave the tent one way or another no matter what the humans did or said now

*im leaving her to blast at what happens next here, I was working with a response of nix being allowed of the tent or not and if you guys go with her or not and stuff like that, leaving the tent and wandering around the tribe a bit*

*OK, but Jex can't really go anywhere with his leg. I'll make a long enough post as I can:*
With Jex being the one who seemed to know Nix the most, and him being frozen, Lux's hand fixed on the knife. He stood protective of Pandia, not sure what Nix would do. Her fingernails and toenails had grown into claws, and her teeth looked like they could kill someone with one bite. He knew his knife would do nothing, but he couldn't take any risks. He didn't know wolves. Having never really seen them up close, or never encountering one, he had no idea what one was telling him.

Nix rolled her eyes as nothing happened and has she had a tail she would have flicked it in anger but she didn't so she couldn't. She dug her clawed fingers in to the ground and then pushed off on her legs, ghost copied her at her side and the two used their powerful legs to spring over the humans and land beside the door way, with a short hiss nix pushed the bark flap aside and padded outside on all fours and sniffed at the air again and caught the scent she knew and then she nodded her head and started to walk along outside the many tents and shelters with ghost beside her
*nix has grown her hands and feet in to claws naturally, she can't grow them when she changes she just becomes more aware of being able to use them*

*right, sorry.*
All Lux could do was let his jaw drop. What in the name of the Sea was Nix doing? She was on all fours. Like a wolf. It confused him. He didn't think people were really able to change like that. He'd heard tales of such people when he was little.
Raising an eyebrow, he looked at his sister.
"What do we do?" he muttered.

Nix walked through the tents and earned herself lot of looks and a few gasps and points as well, she ignored all the humans and then her nosed twitched as the smell of her mother and the pups and her pack hit her nose again. She heard movement from the tent she had been in and ghost gave a slight bark of warning to nix and she hissed back at him not to worry and he sniggered before trotting over to her side as she came up to a camp fire the was surrounded by young children and babies. A few of the children looked at her and a small boy even walked over to her and looked at her closed and nix sniffed at his jerkin and caught her smell again as the laughed at the attention

Lux sighed. So his sister wasn't listening to him. He let go and shook Jex by the shoulders.
"Come on mate." Their eyes met, but not like last time. Jex's pupils were huge so hardly any iris could be seen. Lux hadn't ever seen anyone so shaken up.
Eventually, he came to - but barely. "What?"
"We're following your friend."
Jex's eyes widened once more and he backed away. "No. Not after what I saw."
Biting down on a snarl, Lux yanked Jex to his feet - forgetting his wounded leg in the process. Jex cried with the pain and Lux had to throw his arm around his shoulders again.
"My sister's not listening to me, I don't know wolves and you know her best! Whether you like it, we're following her."
So they made their way back out into the camp, through a collection of tents, stopping not far from where Nix was.

The toddler seemed to be very interested in this new wolf like girl and while she padded round the children's fire catching the smells from all their clothes he walked after her. Ghost was aware of their follower after a moment and he stopped and looked down at the child, the boy had bright blonde hair and dark green eyes and ghost couldn't help bit smiled at the human cub, he bent over and picked the toddler up by his jerkin and then turned and walked up beside nix and placed the child on her back as she walked and she sniggered at his soft heart before smiling at her brother

"Did you know that she could do that?" Lux murmured, watching the commotion between the wolf, Nix and the toddler.
"No," Jex said, just as dumbfounded as he was. He wasn't as scared anymore, just confused. But he kept seeing that wild look in Nix's eye over and over.
He blinked it away, focusing on Ghost, who was lifting the toddler up by the jerkin and for some reason, placing it on Nix's back.

Nix felt the toddler tug on her hair and she muttered in slight anger before she started walking again, the toddler giggled on her back and nix found herself smiling at him as ghost walked up to her side. Nix looked at him and then grinned before they all rounded another row of tents and then stopped dead. A old man was standing in the middle of the path way ,he had wild grey hair and bright green eyes and a kind smile on his face and he was holding a hand out to her as well as smelling of the pack
