Takei followed Crys through the twists and turns of the forest. The walk had been quiet, though it might have been uncomfortable she found it comfortable to be finally away from the Camp. It was like prison during the lockdown and it made her bored, following Dani had been worth the small freedom she had and the taste of adrenaline. A few steps behind Crys she stopped when Crys stopped, "The Wolfpack doesn't function the way most clans do. Reason why we survive. To be accepted as active you should have qualities other than pure talent, which I must admit... You do have. Above everything... You must be reliable. Which, at the moment you are not. Loyal, maybe... But not reliable. Your previous instructor failed remarkably in graduating you. You have not grown as a member of the clan, and so my mother wants me to... Make up for that mistake."

She sighed, and added. "The most important things you must remember while we have to work together: First, never lie to me. Second, always do exactly as I say, specially if that means doing nothing. Third, I will never feel sorry for you, so do not dare whine... Ever. Any questions?"
The news sunk in Takei as she played the words over in her head again, they emphasized when Crys told her of the rules. Takei put a palm to the nearest tree and leaned into it, her arm still stretched out. She groaned, the freedom she wanted so much was gone in a blink of an eye. To make situations more troublesome she had to report to Crys, she didn't have any personal problems. But it was the first impression she had on Crys, and it seemed demanding. Still leaning on the tree she got another hand and rubbed her temple, "No."
