Cowl's Secret (open)

[Man of Many Murders]

Cowl fell to on the surface of the water everything back to the way it was. Cowl stayed there for a moment not doing anything. Then his eyes flashed open. He was back and he suddenly realised he was naked. He noticed Shiro had followed him and the girl was here to. Cowl hadn't noticed the little girl yet. He walked out of the water putting on the cloak. Cowl was back to his normal depressing self. Cowl was out of the death form and back to normal Cowl. Then he noticed the girl. The girl was squirming around as if a new born child. Well she actually was. She did not know how to talk or anything. But she suddenly broke free from the fox's grasp and ran over to Cowl rapping her arms around him her head leaned against his chest.

[J-Bear!]

Jatza smiled. Whatever ritual it was, it was over. She tilted her head, observing the happy reunion, or perhaps not so happy, between the two. She still didn't want to seem rude by interfering, so she remained silent.

Cowl had no idea who this girl was. Or why he was here in the first place. The last thing he remembered was being struck by Issac. The rest of the events prior to his awake her were vancant in his mind. Cowl could not see the spirt of the cat, raven , and fox. He was wondering who this girl was. And why she was cliniging to him so fiercly. And why was she naked? Cowl just did the most logical thing and wrap his arms around her as she hugged him.

The fox spirt spoke to Shiro and Shiro alone. "This is intresting. I've never seen a spirt come back before during the renewal. Hmm... But know death is asleep once again what will Cowl do with the girl?" Even though the fox spoke to Shiro it seemed like he was talking to himself. The fox let out one more smile as the cat spirt and the raven spirt dissappeared. "Do something for me Shiro.... Keep and eye on this girl... No doubt she will have to be with Cowl.... But if anything happens and Cowl can not protect her I want you to make sure that she remains safe.... Cowl is her guardin.... But you are her protecter..." The spirit of the fox then vanished without a trace of it ever being there.

Shiro's eyes were focused on Cowl and the glad, very glad to see that both were alright and Cowl was back to his old- much more human- self. When the fox addressed him, he respectfully drew his attention away from the pair and toward the spirit. His ears perked all the way forward at the spirit's request and he tilted his head to the side, tails swaying. Before he could say 'Of course, I promise' the fox had already gone. A smile crept onto the kitsune's muzzle as his eyes wandered back to the disoriented Cowl and emotional girl. With soft paw steps, Shiro padded around the pair to sit off to the side, directly to Cowl's left. The fox sat comfortably with his tails covering his front paws. He was there when, or if, Cowl needed assistance.

Cowl didn't really know what to do with this girl. He didn't want to make her sad and tell her to get off him, but he wanted to know who was she. Why was she here? Where are her parents? And why is she naked? All of these questions ran through Cowl's mind. But as if adapting he spoke to the girl trying to sound as calm and cool as possible. "What is your name?" He thought this would be a good first step. After all once they were aquainted then maybe he could sort this whole thing out. The girl looked up to his face and her mouth moved but no words came out. Cowl did not understand this. Why wouldn't she talk. He couldn't figure out why. The little girl had stopped clutching onto him by know and her arms were to her sides. What should he do?

[J-Bear!]

Jatza smiled at the odd pair, perhaps a couple. She honestly had no clue what was going on, and didn't plan to intrude.

When Cowl recived no answer he decided he better take her out of here. He had no idea who she was or why she was here, but something told him that maybe Estrik could help him with this. He had to get this girl back to her parents. Cowl had no choice. He had to leave. So thats what he did. Cowl left the underwater grotto while holding the girls hand. He needed to get her some clothes and fast. ((Cowl left the post))

[J-Bear!]

Jatza looked at the boy who left, and decided she would leave as well.

Shiro watched quietly as the women, Cowl, and young girl left the grotto. He remained for just the slightest bit longer. Very quietly, the white kitsune padded over to the now still water and stared into it placidly. 'That was... interesting... Smiling and with a swish of his tails, Shiro turned and cantered from the grotto.
