The Eager Rper
Janine sat inside the house, eating food that her mother had cooked. She was quiet for the majority of her time in the house, her mind occupied with the worry of herself being a danger to her mom, and the possibility of a werewolf near the citizens of Amastad. Whether the person lived somewhere else, or if they actually lived in this city, she had to admit that it was a tad problematic. Only in the sense that the Kingdom would most likely have to begin some sort of attack against the creature. And what if she had to fight the beast? She was at risk of endangering those that she cared for as well.
Then Janine had the most insane idea: what if she found the werewolf first? Then she could talk the person into going somewhere where they couldn't hurt anyone..... But that was crazy. Werewolves were essentially humans, and humans subconsciously needed to be with other humans. She shook her head with a troubled sigh.
"Something wrong Janine?" Janine's mother asked. The young woman looked up from her bowl and blinked.
"Yes... No... I don't know. It's just the things that I'm reading. They're just making me think is all," Janine responded.
Her mother said something in response, but Janine didn't quite hear it, as she suddenly heard soft hissing and rattling sounds in her head - a sort of built-in warning system that her demonic half inherited. This made Janine look up and turn to the window. Something was wrong. She didn't known what it was, but she felt it in her body.
Janine got up on her feet and walked to the door to go outside. Night was upon her, and yet, it wasn't bright like she thought it would be. She looked up and saw the moon to be full.... But it wasn't white... It was a blood red color, and it was large and close up. Janine felt an ominous tension building up in her, and it called to her other half. But it was in the sense that she knew something was about to happen.
She groaned nervously and walked outside, staring blankly at the blood red moon. Suddenly, pages upon pages of those werewolf topics just swarmed her head. Werewolves were supposed to be active on a full moon right? But she didn't senses anything before on other full moons..... Maybe her senses were just wonky..... It could happen... right?
"Janine? Are you alright?" You left me high and dry inside," her mother asked suddenly. Janine's mother had followed her outside. Janine looked to her with unease.
"I'm.... Not sure. I feel something stirring. I heard the warning sounds in my head, but I don't know what or who it is for," Janine explained.
The older woman looked out towards the streets and sighed. She understood what Janine was talking about, and she could see that her daughter was uneasy for some reason. But she didn't want her to be uneasy the whole night. She looked up and thought about it - the moon looked ominous tonight. Maybe her senses were just reacting to the way the moon looked.
And yet, on the other hand, it looked pretty in a sense. She didn't believe that she'd seen a moon like this before. It would be a shame if they'd just spent this type of night inside.
"Hey. You want to go for a ride?" The woman asked. Janine blinked and turned her head in surprise.
"Mom? Did you just ask what I thought you asked? What's possessing you to -"
"You're my daughter - I can tell when these things happen. You've felt this before when you were younger, and of course, I couldn't just let you wander off on your own. And besides, this moon looks beautiful. Surely you wouldn't want to waste a night like this inside."
Janine shifted uneasily in her spot. She couldn't shake the fact that something could be wrong, but it was also possible that her other half was just uneasy for no reason. That has happened at times - her senses making her worry for hours on end. Those times made her dislike what she was for a good while.
After a good bit of persuasion, Janine relented and saddled Venus up. The horse looked at Janine with a curious nicker, and Janine chuckled and pat her neck.
"I know, this is a weird night. Calm down, we're going on a little joy ride. It'll be you, me, and Mom.... Yes, mom's coming too, so no funny stuff," Janine told Venus as she helped her mom on the saddle.
Off the two went in the blood red night, passing the open taverns and dangerous streets of Amastad to the more dangerous territory that was the forest. The ride might have just started, but Janine couldn't shake the underlying feeling of dread and worry.
But she hoped that the source of her worry was just in her head....
She hoped...
