"Hopefully she will," Phoenix said. "Something will come up."

Lazaro pulled himself to his feet. "A bruise or two." He looked over to Delfina. "Thanks." He dusted himself off. "Sooner we get moving, sooner we're home."

Delfina kept staring blankly ahead of her, as if she hadn't heard. Her eyes were a bit distant and there was an immense feeling of guilt and shock that had washed over her.
"I killed it," she muttered to herself over and over again, "I killed it..."
~~~~~
"She's with the twins now," said Ricardo, "They've always been able to calm her down and think things out rathionally. Now we just have to wait for her to decide that she wants to speak to us again."

When seeing Delfina in her catatonic state, Aron handed the straps to the packmaster and went over to her. He put his hand on her shoulder heavily to show support. "Maybe you injured it, but if you hadn't, Lazaro would be in much worse shape than it."

"But you don't get it," Delfina answered finally, "I have never killed or injured anything in my life. I have big qualms about seriously harming anybody or anything. But I'm less human now, so that doesn't matter."

"Delfina, you're no less human inside." Lazaro protested.

"Well, I'm a little tired of being a gargoyle now," Delfina replied, "I want so much to look like a human again! But that's never going to happen."

((IPD and Ebony: Sorry, I have just lost all motivation to be there.))
"The answer is in the books like Phoenix and Kathleen said." Aron put his hand over her shoulders. "Though your appearance is different, a form that allows you to protect yourself and those around, you are still human. Nothing will take that away."

Raine had now returned to her true form and was staring into space with a bored/pissed look on her face. She let an annoyed growl escape, "Wrrrr...."

"Let's just get going," growled Delfina, making her way to a nearby tree so that she could gain some height to be able to take flight again.

Ebony was resting with the twins in the alcove for a bit. It was then that she got up, careful not to disturb the twins and made her way toward Ricardo and Phoenix.

Phoenix looked up in time to see Ebony start to approach them. "And here she comes now..."

"So, how am I gonna deal with this power, now that I have it?" asked Ebony as she pulled up.

Aron scoffed when seeing Delfina running away as usual. He was about to look at his GPS device, but he knew that Delfina was up in the air, and she would see better what direction to go.
He went over to Lazaro as they continued. "I may have never shot from a gun, but I do know they have no stopping power at all." He said. "If you had shot it mid-leap, it would still have kept going."

Doc was still listening in to the radio. "They encountered a quadwolf, old one. Maybe he thought humans would be easy prey." He turned his attention back to Raine. "Growling isn't going to make things move any faster..."
The pack string continued on its way, following Delfina, with the scouts covering its flanks. They would not relax until they made it to the base camp, and even then they'd be on their guard.
"We're gonna need some big-bore guns to deal with those things." Lazaro frowned. "And the recoil on those things would be a mofo."
