Cat walked alongside Zev into the massive forest. She indicated her little hut, which was in the heart of the forest in a clearing. She smiled slightly over at him. "This is where you'll be staying for the training...it might be awhile, so there's food and supplies." She would be outside, in demon form, to sleep.

Zev simply nodded. He missed his Mom, and Dad, Ajax and Myra even Willow! He would be so different by the time he got back, they probably wouldn't want anything to do with him.

Cat sensed his longing to be with his family. "It'll be soon enough...there aren't many people around here, and I'm not always the best company...I would have given you the training at your own home, but your mother was afraid that if your demon side took over, that you might do something terrible and not realize it."

Zev did not say anything. He just looked at her, his eyes showed something, not that he understood, and not that he was confused. It was unexplainable what they showed.

Cat could not figure out for the life of her what he was feeling, so she didn't try to understand him. She flicked her tail, cocking an ear.

Zev sat beside the river, he was fifteen now, and hadent seen anyone he grew up with in over a year. He watched it flow by, he had rarely spoken sense he had gone to live with his Aunt, and when he did speak, his voice was low and calm, not like him at all.

Cat was in demon form when she emerged from the trees. She sank down on her haunches beside him, and looked over. "You're finished your training now, it's time for you to go home." She smiled, her black lip twitching upwards. "Let's go." She murmured, then stood, got a drink of water, and waited for him.

Zev stood up and started walking, his hands in his pockets and he leaned forward slightly as he did so. The birthmarks he had on his face were still there, only they were slightly redder then black, his brown ears twitched, and instead of a stub in the one, he had a gold cuff down the whole side of that ear. He had been ripped badly, and that kept his each from going deaf.

Cat walked beside him. Three hours later, they were almost to his home. "Well, I s'pose this is it, then...you're a good, strong kid, Zev, and you learn fast." She smiled, glancing up at him, still in full demon form.

Zev had been walking with his eyes closed, and he still said nothing. Cat had gotten used to this by now, she would talk, and he would ACT like he was listening, but his mind was always elsewhere.

Now they were in sight of the house. Cat smirked at him, her golden eyes glinting with mischief. "I'm betting your friends are going to be waiting for you." She remarked, then changed to halfway form, and knocked on the door.

Zev stood sideways, looking away from the door. The sun often caught the gold cap on the one side of his ear, he also now had visable muscles. He wore baggy black jeans and combat boots, he had a black shirt that buckled around his neck and a leather vest on as well. He had two leather straps tied around each upper arm, and he had a fingerless black glove on his sword hand, its knuckles were metal capped. Still he said nothing.

"OI! OPEN THE DOOR WILLYA!" Cat yelled, losing her patience, then just opening it anyway. She glanced back at him, he never said anything. She moved behind him, and gave him a slight push to go inside.
"Hey! You're finally back, man!" Ajax exclaimed, grinning, and standing up. "Watch out for My, she's a torpedo now."
"Shut up, Jax." Myra smiled, standing, then pulling Willow up after her.

Zev just looked at them. His eyes were a dark maroon, and still he said nothing.
Willow ran up and hugged Zev. "ZEVY!!!" She laughed then looked at his ear and touched the cap it had on one side. "Wow."

Myra walked up to him, and poked his arm, then looked at the glinting gold on his ear. She smiled slightly. "You've changed a lot..." She murmured, her large green eyes inquisitive.
Cat smiled, then shifted into full demon form, turned, and began the long walk back.

Zev finally raised his eyes, looking into Myra's. "And you havent." His voice was deep and more harsh. He turned and walked out of the house, looking at the ground. He did not walk in the direction Cat and him came from, he walked toward the village.
Willow looked over at Myra. "Whats with him?" She turned to Ajax. "Come on guys, lets go." She grabbed both their wrists and tore out the door after Zev.

"Ow, Will!" Myra exclaimed, being dragged after her friend. She shook her head, and pulled back, trying to stop Willow, then pulling her wrist free. "I'll see him later!" She called, then turned, and disappeared into the trees. He hates me...doesn't he? She reached the river, and stood on its bank, looking down into the rushing waters. She sank down, and dangled her legs in it, staring silently into the current.
Ajax shrugged, then took off after Willow, running beside her. "Wonder what's up with him?" He wondered out loud, then concentrated on running.

Willow caught up to Zev. "HEY!" She was about to poke him when he turned around and grabbed her hand. She stared wide eyed at his hand around hers then looked up, his eyes their dark maroon. "Whats wrong with your eyes?!"
Zev stared down at her. "She doesn't like being dragged, don't do that." He let go of her hand and took off at a fast run, but not using his demon strength.

Ajax knew that he and Willow couldn't keep up with Zev. He gently held her back. "Woah...what has gotten into him!?" He looked over at her, bewilderment crossing his face.
Myra didn't hear anyone back the way she had come. She sighed softly, and looked down into the water, one elbow resting on her knee, her chin resting in that hand. In the other hand she held a stick, and was trailing its end in the water.

Zev slowed to a walk. He was now walking beside the river, soon he saw Myra and stopped, he was about to turn when the sun caught his ear cuff anf it shone.

Myra whirled around, catching the glint out of the corner of her eye. Her eyes widened, now she had no clue what to do. She hesitated for a moment, uncertain, then stood, and slowly walked over. Then she just hugged him, speechless. She had missed him so much...

Zev smiled and hugged her back. "I love you Myra." He pulled her close, he had missed her, and not being able to see her for a year had almost killed him.

Myra smiled, and hugged him as close as she could, closing her eyes. "I love you too, Zev." She murmured softly. She hadn't realized she was this much in love, it amazed her exactly how much she had missed him. He was the only one who had ever managed to see the soft, gentle side of her, and that was just now.

Zev had grown, he was no longer a five foot eight inches weakling, he was now five foot ten and he was strong. He smiled and lifted her chin up gently with his hand and kissed her lovingly.

Myra opened her eyes, and they widened in surprise, then she closed her eyes again and kissed him back, leaning up on her toes. She was five foot six and a half now, but that wasn't much of a height gain. It didn't matter, though. She smiled inwardly, and kissed him lovingly. "I missed you so much..." She murmured once they broke.

Zev didn't say anything, though he felt the same way. He smiled down at her and hugged her close when there was a rustling in the bushes and Willow came out with Ajax. Zev didn't care, he didn't break away, he held her in his arms.

Myra leaned her head against his shoulder, and shot Ajax a warning glance, which he took and didn't say anything about it. She closed her eyes, both hands on his chest so that she was closer to him. She had never realized how good love felt, not up until now.
Ajax looked at Willow, and smiled, but didn't say anything about the two.

Willow smiled then grabbed Ajax and walked through the clearing the two were soon gone, out of earshot. "Were you expecting that?"
Zev looked down at her and smiled, then rested his head ontop of hers. "I didn't mean what I said in a bad way."

"No way in Hell." Ajax responded, his eyes wide. "I did not think that I would ever see My being held by anyone, not even Zev."
"I know...you just sounded different, that's all." She smiled up at him, closing her eyes. She was wearing the same clothes as ever, her camouflage shirt and baggy black jeans, along with her dark combat boots.

Willow nodded. "They make a good couple." She smiled. "Zev has changed so much!"
Zev smiled. "Sounded yes, feel not really." His strong arms were tight around her thin body. "You still smell the same as when I left."
