Zander sighed wandering through the forest, the rays of light only penetrating the dense foliage every once in a while to create beams of light. He glanced to away from the light. However as he looked he through he saw something strange. A waver,m a flicker... Something.

"You can see it?" A voice said in a low growl walking with it's back hunched as it moved around Zander. The wolves fur was standing on end as it moved, stalking around him.

"I... can see... a large wolf in front of me.. If that's what you mean. And I can hear.. a voice. Theoretically coming from the wolf which is odd but not Hyakuji odd." He said watching the beast, his entire body was tense as he waited to see what it did.

"Whats your name?"

"I don't have one." Zander said slowly.

"Cute." He said sarcastically. "Your NAME."

"....Zander Winston."

"That's A name. What's is YOUR name?"

"......Oliver Glen." Oliver said lowering his guard a bit. How on earth did this wolf know? He was guarded against stuff like mind reading, unless it was really strong.

"Very good.." He said with a deep throated laugh. "At least you can be honest." He sat now, in front of Zander. He sat upright with perfect posture seeming very noble and regal for a wolf. "Tell me, what are your feelings on justice?"

"It's a pretty word that doesn't exist in reality.."

"Now that that rehearsed garbage the humans fed to you is out of the way, how about the feelings you have on the matter that AREN'T complete bullshit?"

".... I don't know..?"

"Think.."

".....I.. I guess I believe it does exist. I WANT to.. I jsut odn't know! I feel like sometimes sacrifices must be made.. And I know I'm not black and white like Jameson.."

"Who?"

"Ah.. My former best friend.."

"You had a falling out?"

"He.. died.."

"... When a member of the pack dies it is very painful. Especially for a pup. I am sorry.."

"..... I don't know how I like being condescended by a dog."

"I don't know If I like being condescended by a human pup."

".. touche." He sighed heavily. "ANYHOW! I guess I believe that we should do what we can to help people while not forgetting that sometimes that means making necessary sacrifice.."

"I see, a grim outlook for a pup. But you're nearly a fully developed wolf now. I admire the stern resolution but I think perhaps you undervalue lives.. Why do you always lie first?"

".... I was taught to lie first and tell the truth last." Oliver said with a frown.

"You were taught a terrible thing."

"What am I here for?" Zander said uncomfortably. Trying to use his training to control and uncontrollable situation.

"There's that tone again.. that posture. That heartrate.. Like your transform yourself into what you aren't." He rose to all four. "You have been chosen as my boy... I see why. You have the talent and potential. Not to mention existing skill. But I have something to teach you. Many things.. This is a critical juncture for your life. I feel it. You stand on the edge of a cliff between becoming Zander and reviving Oliver and only you can choose which is your path. But I can help you."

"Your... boy..? So.. what? I'm your pet?"

"Exactly! You're my pet and you'll work for my pack.."

"Working for wolves to do ..WHAT exactly?"

"Oh, my pack is not of wolves. No. My pack is much more interesting than that. We are of the Zodiac."

"Ah, cool, so I get to work for a mouse and a rooster. Neat."

"hahah! A rooster. I'd love it if you called her that to her face!" The wolf said with a deep throated laugh that was like a whooping bark. "No Zander. Listen now. The time for words is long past.. Let me tell you of the Sekkou.. and that waver you see in the sky.. and of a destiny you hold."

Another voice seemed to eminate out from the depths of the wood, a deep and solid bartone that spoke out to both the wolf and Zander, "Lobos-dono. You need not be so theatrical with him. I'm sure he's confused enough as it is without you being direct in matters." The stallion stepped forward towards Freki, giving as much of a smile as a horse could to his canine counterpart. "After all, although they've been chosen, they still have the option to decline."

The black stallion looked out across the dense forests, "I do believe an old friend of ours is coming." Blitzer wasn't wrong, for only moments later did a shadowed figure come through the tree trunks. As he drew closer, Blizter chuckled happily, "I see you haven't changed, Ryuko-kun." Nickle smiled, coming up next to Blitzer, "It's good to see you old friend. I was worried you'd been lost to the darkness." Blitzer whinnied happily as Nickle rans his hands of his pelt. "We would not be lost to a darkness such as that. It was thanks to the Hyakujians that you were able to restore this world."

Nickle then looked at Freki and Zander, "Ah, so they've called you too huh?" Nickle walked forward and extended his hand, "My name's Nickle Ryuko. The current Uma Sekkou. Pleasure to meet you."

Zander wasn't sure what to think of the man coming up on him but then when the talking horse appeared he sighed heavily. So this was the Horse Zodiac? So then each Zodiac got a 'pet' human to work with it. It seemed like a pretty strange arrangement. "Zander Winston." Zander said taking the hand and shaking it.

"Again with that name..."

Zander hsot a look to the wolf. "Zander. Winston." He said slowly.

"....I see... Zander it is."

Zander glanced back to Nickle. "You realize people stopped using 'sama' anywhere but in maid cafes a long time ago right? It's an antiquated phrase.." He said planting his hands in his sides. "kind of rocking it old school in a lame way there bro." He said with a straight expression.

"My name is not Lobos.... dono." Freki said. "I am the Inu Zodiac and my name can't be spoken in human tounge. It is my boy's honor to give me a name in the human toungue.."

"So.. I guess your real name is in wolf-speak? Like a howl..?"

At this Freki arched it's head back letting out a long cry. A series of almost musical howls. After a itme he lowered his head and spoke. "That is the call of my pack. However a name for a wolf is it's scent. That is how we distinguish each other. We do not have to identify each other with ridiculous grunts because we don't all share the same monkey face."

"Our faces aren't all the same.."

"..They aren't?"

".... .SO. you were telling me some rediculous prophecy?" Zander said with a frown.

"You're quite impudent for a pup." Freki said with a growl. "You've been chosen to stem the tide of demon passing through that waver you saw. On the other side is demon world. The heightened magical energies draws them light moths to the flame and this gateway has been created allowing them to cross over from their world and attack ours. Soon this entire city.. no.. world will be in GRAVE DANGER."

"Pfft my gosh, you're saying monsters are going to attack HYAKUJI!? They'll be COMPLETELY UNPREPARED! Nothing like that has EVER OCCURRED BEFORE!"

"It's a pleasure to meet you Zander Winston." said Nickle with a big smile, before listening to the boy further.

"Sama?" Nickle gained a rather quizical look on his face. "But I never even used the word sama..." he was cut short by Blitzer snorting in delight, "Come now old friend, you know I mean you know harm." Nickle was still standing there looking quizical, "Sama?" Shaking his head, he nudged Nickle to snap him out of it. "You haven't changed at all these past few years."

Nickle, now having gotten back to his senses, scowled a bit and retorted, "I have to! Seriously Blitzer I know you can sense my improvement, don't gimme that." Blizter narrowed his eyes and pressed his head against Nickle's, with Nickle pushing back, "You're not gonna hide the fact from me that you've gotten lazy with training. When you were younger you were full of fire and combating at least one demon, sparring partner or other opponant daily."

"You're forgetting I had a family to provide for too yah know." The head pushing continued for a moment, before the both sighed and gave up, before both laughing. The two seemed to match each other rather well. Nickle's slack attitude and Blizter's rigid authoraty seemed to balance each other out. And from what they heard from Zander and Freki, the same could be said for them.

"So tell me, Blitzer, how long has the wolf been calling the shots since Arcadian and Discord parted ways?" Nickle was of course reffering to how the Phoenix sekkou had once been the pseudo leader. The last person Nickle remembers taking the mantle of the wolf for the longest period was his first girlfriend Kigame.

“Oh, what’s this? A meeting of our numbers, I see, and none too soon at that.” Said a voice from the shadows, sounding suspiciously like Katsuyuki Konishi. It wasn’t long before a large black and red mountain sheep with large, curving, spiraled horns walks into the circle of gathering Juunishis.

“It’s been a while you two, and I see you have found a Sekkou for yourself, you old dog.” Ruemondeol congratulated cordially. “About time too, I was wondering if some of us will have to fight by ourselves, not that I’m complaining.” The Ram Juunishi said dryly, his hot-blooded personality brimming at the edge of his voice.

“Oi, Rue, I thought I told you to wait for me!” Came another, more insistent and annoyed voice this time, and it wasn’t long when the familiar figure of Hajime Go joined group, visibly panting and sweating slightly from what seems to be him jogging through the forest to get to them. “Oh, hello, I didn’t know we’re gathering. Rue here said it was just going to be a training exercise.” Hajime said after noticing Nickle was present alongside his Horse Juunishi, and someone else he never met before.

To which it instantly clicks in his head. “Oh, we’re getting new members already? That’s great, more friends to fight with.” Hajime said with a grin while studying Zander. “I’m Hajime Go, don’t think I’ve seen you around here before so you must be from out of town. Welcome to the Sekkou, I’m the current Hitsuji Sekkou.”

For a moment, that was all he said, until Rue turns to him and harrumphed softly. “Oh, and this is my Juunishi Star, Ruemondeol.” He added, realizing that the sheep Juunishi wouldn’t want to be ignored during introductions.

Zander glanced to the gathering group. SO they were being drawn here or something? Well. it wasn't like Zander had set out intending to go to the deepest part of the forest.. Maybe he had been drawn here without even noticing it. Which was creepy and sort of annoying but there wasn't anything he could do about it now. "Freki.." Zander said, "It's as good a name for a wolf as any." He said with a nod. He then glanced away with a small wiry grin. "I should have named you expository mutt though..."

"I'll kill ya'." Freki said in a yakuza voice.

"I'l' freaking slaughter ya'." Zander said back in an equally dark voice.

Lightning crackled between them, the intensity remained for several moments before finally Zander sighed and looked away, firmly establishing his place as the pet in this relationship.

"I am not the leader.. I was merely teaching this pup in the absence of anyone else whom was capable.."

"..Pup.." Zander said with a frown as he dug his face into his hand. "Anyhow.. I guess I sort of understand. We're like the hired hands of 'destiny'. We work to fight demons because that's our job... With no pay. Fantastic.."

A soft voice echoed from behind them all. "My.. From the sounds of it, you make it sound like the seven samurai. Fighting for a peasant village with only a full stomach as their reward." Zephyr walked out from the brush, a rather large looking grass snake curled over his shoulders, the head near the neck. It gazed firmly at the others before giving a discontented sigh. It then rested a bit on the shoulder.

"Ah.. Hebi-dono.." Zephyr gave a light sigh. "Sorry bout that. I.. I accidentally stepped on him while wandering out here." He gives a half-hearted laugh, rubbing the back of his head. "I didn't see him all to well."

"How can you expect to see what is on the ground when your eyes are always skywards." He gave out another long sigh before looking to the others. The Horse, Ram, Dog had arrived. It gave a length stretch, the body becoming large a bit, but almost unnoticeable, at least, Zephyr didn't notice.

"Heheheh.." He sighs a bit and looks skywards once more before letting his gaze turn back to them. "I didn't hear much, so.. What's with us all being here exactly?"

Nickle and Blizter looked around and seemed to both smile simultaniously as the Ram Juunishi and Hajime appeared. "Well well look who it is. Good to see you're still in one piece Go-kun." Nickle had to admit he couldn't help but wonder how he was feeling. Hinata, well rather Hotaru was gone from the world now. They had started dating only a while back so it seemed and then things took a turn for the worst. Meanwhile Blitzer moved forward towards Freki and spoke, "Look, I'm not one to tell you how to raise and teach your sekkou, but just promise me you won't bite his ear off or anything."

Blizter was familiar with how wolves often nipped their young in such a fashion to teach discipline, however if it was to happen to Zander he was afraid he'd be one earring holder short. That was when Nickle chipped in, "Well look at it this way Zander. Sure we're technically putting out lives at risk for a thankless job," Blizter shot Nickle a look, "E-Except from the universe itself and our Juunishi. But there are some perks. We're technically doing charity work and getting a work out at the same time. For me that's a win win."

Nickle smiled as the Snake Sekkou made his appearance, "Wow, now that's a first. The Hebi sekkou getting chosen before the Tori of Ryuu sekkous. I guess the Juunishi are getting pickier in some cases." Blizter flicked Nickle with his tail, "Watch yoru tongue, they will choose when they are good and ready." Nickle sneezed thanks to Blitzer's tail whipping his face and after brief scowl went over to Zephyr, "It's nice to meet you, I'm Nickle. Looks like for now you're gonna be my juniour eh?" he said giving the boy a friendly pat on the back.

“Yeah, I’m glad to be back, and so is everyone.” Hajime replied to Nickle. “Hinata and Hotaru says ‘hi’ by the way.” He added, referring to the two girls who was through some twist and compromise were his girlfriends. It wasn’t a secret however to some of their friends that something has changed between them since they all came back to Hyakuji but that was a problem for another time.

Hajime grinned with glee as another Juunishi with a new Sekkou appeared, who’s probably just as confused and nervous as the other new guy, just as Hajime himself felt back when Rue made himself known to him during a heated battle beside the Arcadians.

Rue was stamping the ground beneath him, a sign of his slight annoyance and impatience for something to happen, which was a normal reaction coming from the Ram Juunishi. “Does anybody why we’re all gathering here other than to show off out new Sekkous?”

“I don’t see any problem with that.” Hajime interjected before anyone else replies. “We’re not always fighting demons and all after all, or we’d be one somber group if anything.”

“Harumph! Says you. I know you want to go take care of your little problem with your two girlfri-“ Before he could finish his sentence, Hajime hurriedly stepped over and clamped the mountain sheep’s mouth shut.

“Ahahah! Pay him no mind, he’s just feist and itching for some action, that’s all!” Hajime apologized while trying to hide his embarrassment; he’d rather not have too many people knowing about his relationship more than those who already do.

"Hurm.. With the snake that makes four of twelve.." He said planting his hands in his sides. "Quite a meager gathering... I guess the Sekkou are still choosing their partners.. We must be the first, and therefore senior members. I'm sure us each being told what our purpose is will help spread the message when new ones show up..I imagine there are twelve in all, right?" Zander said looking to Freki with a curious gaze.

"Yes. We are both based upon and the inspiration of the zodiac. As legends change so do we, but we are the zodiac twelve.." Freki said looking to the others. "There would be a thirteenth, just as in legend, but she was tricked from the meeting and never was allowed to be one of us. As such it is twelve. I am sure you are aware of what beasts they are. Besides rooster, of course, whom has taken the form of the phoenix"

"...Why?"

"Would you wish to be a rooster on a battlefield?"

"...Point well made." Zander said with a laugh. He looked to the newest arrival. "I'm Zander Willicott. It's good to meet you.." He siad eying the Juunishi Snake and ram. It was still a little weird to see so many talking animals at once. Talk about an existential mind fuck.

Zephyr just looked from one member to the next, not really sure what was going on, but shrugging softly. His shoulders felt heavy. He turned to look as Hebiro coiled around his chest a bit. "Gyah~" He was a bit shocked and lost at how big Hebiro became. He was coiled around his chest, as if hugging him, yet still resting his head on his shoulder.

"Oi... I'm tired just being here.. Should we let them try us out for a bit? It'd be a waste to go into battle if these bones don't know what we can do."
