Zaha had been caugh in the middle of her transformation from human to feline, and therefore was still regrowing her fur, rapid-time. 'Miaow. If you would excuse me, little human, your squeezing a bit too hard. I know I'm fluffy, but could you put me down?' The little cat squirmed out of Jonathans grasp, sniffed his knee, and proceeded to wipe away the indginity of the situation by washing.

"Oh!" SILE just noticed. "Your magical signature..." The pink cat took a closer look. "... Zari? Are you the cat we both are seeing?"
She then watched as Zari released herself from Jonathan and cleaned herself. "Do you need any help with cleansing?" She asked. "This whole event might've inflicted a bit of embarassment upon you..."

((Ah, darnit, ZAHA! *swears*))
Zaha looked up. 'In a way, we are the same person, but no. If Zari does decide to take the form of a cat, she is a brown one.' She jumped up ont Zari's Proffered hand and climbed up, balancing on her shoulder. 'I am Zahaere Emaya. Out signatures are much the same. but mine, if you see it as a colour, it'ss sorta purplish. Or if you smell it, you catch sweet rather than sharp.

((Okay, the confusion might get bigger if we stay on this for too long. I'd better change the scene))
SILE looked at Zaha with utmost curiosity. Indeed, she could sense only minimal differences between her signature and Zari's. "Amazing", she thought.
The pink cat almost forgot about Jonathan. Realizing that the boy was somehow related to the King, she turned towards him. "We should best be going back inside the castle. Our glorious king might worry about your condition", she said.

Ringo was lost in what was going on.

'Indeed, you will have given the King a heart condition. Come on, we don't want to make him worry much longer.' Zari set off towars a side door, fumbled with a key, and held the door open. 'Ringo, you come too.' she said, beckoning.

((Moving along...Minor Godmode of Ringo and SILE to get thing going))
When everyone had gone in the door, Zari shut it behind her. 'We need to find the king.' she said firmly.

SILE's eyes began to sparkle. "This castle is undeniably more elusive inside!" she exclaimed.
((Yay fillers. I fear we're the only roleplayers beside Wolf here.))

((OOC: I'm here.))
"And who're you?"
Pyro, after sizing the newcomer up and remembering seeing her with Zari--there was a slight family likeness after all--in the hallway, bent into a formal bow.
"I am Pyro, the Black Knight. Are you looking for anything in particular?" Pyro offered a slight smile. "Let me offer my assistance. Unless you're seeking Lord Wolf, as I have no idea where he may have gotten to...nor Zari, for that matter." The Black Knight tilted her head, keeping her gaze focused on Holly. "If you don't mind my asking, you said you were looking for a...dagger? Here? I can't recall seeing you here before."
Well, I think I've seen you before, but I don't know...where... Pyro struggled to keep the thoughtful look she knew she had slipped into off of her face. Maybe, if she had seen Holly before, Holly would remember, thus lending a clue to the memory loss it seemed all of the Knights shared.

'I found my sister, she was attacking this...redheaded maid...so I threw my dagger at her. Then I went back to my room at one of the local inns. My curiousity and the wish to see my sister again got the better of me. I am in no need of help. i found a title in my language, since my Anglese reading is terrible. My accent gets in the way too. I can't pronounce the other name for this tongue, hmm, Eh-ehn-en-ga-li-i-ish.' she smiled slightly, putting her hands behind her back.

Jonathan wiped his hands on his pants after the cat had jumped from his hands, then ignored whatever the others were saying. Soon enough, they began moving towards the castle, talking about finding King Wolf, but just as they had reached the doors, he heard a fine purr.
Jonathan turned around and grinned when he saw the cat. It stood a short distance away, staring directly at him. He’d studied some cats with the local professor before he’d come here, and it looked a bit like a lynx. But no linx he’d ever seen shone or shimmered like this one.
Then it turned and leapt away in arching beams of light.
Jonathan glanced back at the knights, and when they didn’t notice his pause, he darted away and followed the light. Green grass and some bushes passed him by, then he saw a rather tall tree with a wide rim of leaves. A group of five or six people were gathered around it, as well as a rather peculiar-looking black cat.
Jonathan approached the person nearest the cat—she looked a lot like a night herself, decked in lustrous bronze armor—and asked, “Is this your cat?”
* * *
Wolf finally stopped running. His heart was racing, he’d run circles around all the halls he’d been in with Jonathan, and yet he still hadn’t found the boy.
“Calm down,” he told himself and closed his eyes. “Just listen, see if you can sense him anywhere…” The hall was silent, but the silence helped him to concentrate. Since the coronation, he’d been able to sense the presence of his Knights nearby, and maybe one of them had seen Jonathan, too.
A faint green glow expanded around him in his mind’s eye and the walls, the expanding empty halls came into focus: The way he felt their presence in his mind seemed like something between actually seeing them and just being aware of their being there.
Then the castle grew black, his senses dulled.
His eyes flew open and he swore, shaking his fist in the air.
A few moments passed before he could calm himself again. Then he sent out his senses once more, and this time he pushed himself to see outwards when the world fell black in his mind. Slowly, his radius of perception seemed to expand, but still there was only emptiness amid the castle around him. But then there was a light. A bright crimson light, then two others behind it. These were faint, and he couldn’t recognize their colors yet, but they felt like Knights as much as the crimson one did.
And he felt a strain of thought from the red light, a thought with his name on it. A thought calling towards him.
Lightning tore through his mind and he was on his knees. Wolf opened his eyes, his vision blurry, and wasn’t quite sure what had just happened to him. Had he pushed himself too far? Had someone tried to attack him?
No matter the cause, he knew he was needed, and maybe, maybe the one who needed him would be able to lead him to Jonathan.
He began running.((Yep, Jonathan has approached Shade, and the crimson light is Zari. :) ))

"Fine," Shade said to the cat. "Act like a cat so that I can't catch you acting otherwise. You're still suspicious, you know."
“Is this your cat?”
Shade looked up from the cat, turning towards the voice. A young boy was standing near her, one unfamiliar to her. "No, that's not my cat," she said. "I don't know whose it is, either. That cat probably owns itself." She smiled, offering her hand. "I don't think I've seen you around before. I'm Shade, the bronze knight. And you are?"

Zari, sensitive as she was, felt something swoop over her. She whirled around to find Jonathan gone. She swore. 'Yinen! The child has gone and lost himself. Zaha, can you find him?' Zaha nodded and leapt off Zari's shoulder, following the scent. She skidded to a stop. 'Salve, Shade. Young man, you gave Zari a heart attack, don't wander off like that. You've probably given King Wolf a heart attack too, running off like that. Stay here, no more running off, okay? Otherwise I will have to follow you again, and that isn't fun for either of us.'
#He's here!#
#Thank Sky he is. I'm coming.# 'Zari grabbed bth SILE and Ringo by the wrists and teleported, feeling breif heat then she was standing, disorientated, in the courtyard. 'There you are. That's the third time you've got me.' Rubbingher forehead, she looked at Shade and smiled apologetically. 'Sorry there, this fellow is in King Wolfs care and he went walkabot, so now me, these two, and Wolf are running about like Maniacs trying to keep him in sight.'

((SILE looked as Zari grabbed her wrist. The scene around them then changed, hinting the pink cat that a teleportation spell took effect. She was surprised to see Jonathan with Zaha and another female knight.
"Oh, Jonathan!" she exclaimed, rushing towards Jonathan like a worried sister. "How swift your disappearance occurred! Please do not wander off like before again..."
SILE then raised her head towards the knight beside him. "And who might you be?" she asked. "I reckon you are a Knight as well."
