Aah, there doesn't seem to be any good place to sit down to watch the rest of their training, I can barely have a good view from here. I did however manage to get where Spec and Space are, but I'm trying to find a good place to watch from afar, don't want to get caught in the struggle between these guys.
Here we go, I managed to find a good place to watch, good distance too. But by the time I sit down, they're half-way done with this training seccion. It was Spec's turn to send some attacks in, but Space did a pretty good job in blocking and countering, even though some of Spec's attack made contact with him. I am really amazed and impressed at them, I've never seen any moves or speed like these, it makes the hunters look like nothing.
"It is time to battle..." I heard Space say after getting some distance from Spec.
Spec caught his breath and replies, "Yes, this was only offense training, correct?"
"Yes. Now, ready yourself..."
A pause between those two filled the air, the suspense was killing me. I eyed them as they eyed each other, as if waiting for one of them to make the first move...
"HAA!" Space cried as he begun the assault. Could've expected Space would start.
Space pulled a fast one and attacked Spec from behind. I didn't see that coming...Spec turned and threw Space into the ground and jumps, kicking him in the progress.
Whoa! Space just got up like nothing happened and countered, not to mention sending a barrage of punches and kicks at Spec, who tried his best at blocking them...Oh man, they are really good!
Spec threw a punch and kicked Space, sending Space right unto the ground...Space could be done now...
Wha?! No way! Space just got back up and countered, now it's Spec's turn to fall to the ground...I...I'm basically speachless, these guys can easily take on anything! It kind of puts me to shame to be afraid of hunters...Wow, Spec and Space...they're incredible! Best fighters I know!!
I was too deep in my praisings that I didn't even paid attention to what Spec and Space were talking about after their training ended, but I did noticed Space smiling, along with a chuckle here and there.
I pad over to them, "You guys were great!!" I say in a psyched up tone, "I've never seen anything like it! I could barely keep up with your attacks! It was the best fighting I've ever seen!!"
Space looks at me then up in the sky, "Hm...You guys had something you wished to do, right? You may go now, I will talk to you later tonight. There will be dinner in the fridge for you if you come back too late, Spectrum."
Oh yeah! I forgot about the prism!
"Oh, yes, that's right. Yea, well, did you wanna eat something with us for lunch first?" Spec asks Space, "I packed some lunch."
"Oh, well...I suppose it wouldn't hurt." Space agrees.
I look at Spec to see him kind of surprised, must be the less serious tone in Space's voice. Hey, I can't actually say anything about it since I met him last night, but ever since I've met him he's been sporting a serious tone in his voice...guess he must be like that every time...
Spec takes out some food from a container of some sort and place them out so we could eat them. I take some food and start eating, it was the afternoon already and I'm hungry.
"So, Ken'ichi... Do you think I'm good enough to enter a tournament sometime?" Spec asks me.
"Tournament?" I ask him with a puzzled tone.
Spec starts explaining what's a tournament, "It's a competition for anyone to enter for fighting against one another to see who is the best. IT's really just for fun, and training and experiance, but you get prizes and such if you win. I haven't entered a tournament yet, so I wonder if I'm gunna be good enough. That's why Space and me train together every so often..."
I gulp the chunk of food I had in my mouth and wiped my mouth clean. So that's what it is, sounds fun. Too bad I can't enter...or can I?
I nod, "Yeah! You would do great!"
I take another bite of my food and listen to the rest of the conversation Spec and Space would carry on.
A tourmanent...if it's as good as this training, it would be spectacular to watch. All of the anthros entering to fight one another and make new friends, new and old faces to see. Ah boy, it sounds like a lot of fun. If Spec asked me about it, it could mean that there must be one coming soon or maybe in just a few days. And if that's the case, then I want to see it!

Ken'ichi nods in response. "Yeah! You would do great!"
He resumes eating, so I talk with Space a bit.
"Space, where you've been lately anyways? I was just curious. You left a note the night before last night, about following that Slavin..." I took a few bites of my sandwich.
"Well... While I was gone, Slavin had been creating some kind of chaos within the woods, I've heard quite a few residants have been courrupted by him, and he's even killed someone..."
"What!?" I dropped my sandwich down to my lap. "who??"
"It's noone we know, Spectrum. I would of done something, but it was already too late. So that night I had followed him up in the hills and valleys. He's getting closer to something he desires, that's what I always heard him talking about to himself... So when he stopped and took camp in a large cave, I hadn't seen him leave for days, so i decided to work my way back home. We have yet to confront him..." He sighed and took a bite of his sandwich.
"I still don't understand what he is planning... I had confronted him while I was in the wilderness up north with my friends, including Ken'ichi, and he was killing and rushing through the forest like a maniac... And then we fought him atop the mountain, where...where he fell off...but.. He did not die..." I looked toward the ground.
"I don't believe you should see him or confront him at all, Spectrum, there is still much to be done. You know, I did encounter him once before, and even then I myself was unable to eliberate him from exhistance..." He stood up after finishing his food. "That is why I must train you. Now, I must go, I will see you later tonight."
I finsihed my food, and so had Ken'ichi. We all got up, and Space left us without saying much. But before he disappeared, he looked to Ken'ichi, Space's eyes signifing something. Then he looked at me, telling me something with his eyes as well... I think he meant for me to know to be careful. Including Ken'ichi... Well, that was that. I turned to Ken'ichi.
"Shall we go?" I said, packing up the rest of the things... He agreed, and ocne I got everything ready, we were on our way, away from the waterfall here, to the place I showed him yesterday. As we walked, the sunbeamed skys hit the little snow there was on the ground, shining a bit, making the whole area a bit illuminated.. We walked a different path this time, not the one through the town. This path would lead us directly to the small waterfall from yesterday... Soon, we began getting closer, the green showing in full color in the winter-untouched area. I felt a cooling sensation as the vapors from the waterfall entered the air, as we walked into the dark place once more.
"Here we are again." I said, walking up to the waterfall... "Ken'ichi, you remember how there was a cavernous entrance behind the previous waterfall we were at with Space?"
He nodded in a guessing manner.. I walked closer into the water, and shifted my arm into the waterfall, and it went right through, showing a sort of dark cave. Ken'ichi looked a bit surprised, but he walked to me under the falls as well.
"This is where the prism is located, deep within this cave. Go on inside, I will follow."
He did as I asked and walked in, I walked in close behind. It was too dark for it's own good in here...
"Alright, Ken'ichi, your remember the red prism piece I had givin you? It's time for you to use it, I didn't bring my prisms with me..." I looked at his eyes barely shining in the darkness..
"How?" He asked.
"Did you ever have a situation where a bright red aura appeared around your body at one point?" I asked him. He thought for a moment, and then nodded.
"Can you try to harness the strength and feelings you felt when you had that happening? If you do so, your aura will appear once again, resinmating you with a firey red light that will guide us through here..."
"I'll...I'll try." He said, looking into the darkness further. He closed his eyes and thought for a while... I wondered if he would be able to do it. I kneeled down to him.
"Just feel the burning. the redness of the lightening fire, the warmth of guideness, just fill that through your mind, along with the emotion you feel when alone in a dark world, no where to go. You are only one with the red passion if you control it with your feelings. Bring it all out with effort, and keep it consistant, you are able to light the darkened path, if you put your mind to it. You can do it." I encouraged him as he breathed, thinking and hoping that he would do this. I waited, and a really long suspenseful moment... And finally... His eyes lit up, he breathed out all his air, and a large red aura appeard around his body, and it sustained... He cried out with success and happyness.
"I did it! I did it, Spec!" He smiled wider. "How come you never taught me this before?"
I thought for a moment... "You weren't ready at the time you were givin this gift, Ken'ichi. Now you are, let us go deeper and I will show you the alter of the prism that we must gather." I got up off my knees and stood side by side with Ken'ichi, his aura sustaining and lighting up the cave on our way, as we got deeper, the rushing of the waterfall began fading away...

I listen in on Spec and Space's conversation about this Slavin guy...He's still alive...And is on a killing spree and probably getting closer to whatever he's looking for. I still don't get how he could survive falling off the mountain, I tackled him myself off of the mountain...
I stand up after I finish eating my food in time to hear Space taking his leave...But before he walked away, he looked at me and then at Spec...OK, now he's gone...
"Shall we go?" Spec asks me as he picks up his things that he brought with him.
"Yeah, let's go." I reply.
After Spec is done getting everything ready, we start off to our destination. We walk through almost the same route we took when Spec lead me to his special waterfall. Though some of the route was different, I kinda recognized some areas, a few snow here and there. We didn't passed through the town though, which pretty much explained this faster route. We reach the waterfall sooner than I remember, now I have to see to which direction Spec points us to.
"Here we are again." Spec announces as we stand in front of the waterfall, "Ken'ichi, you remember how there was a cavernous entrance behind the previous waterfall we were at with Space?"
Hm...I guess so...I nod, kind of guessing since I haven't noticed anything much of that in the other waterfall.
Spec walks closer into the water, and...just went through it?! I blink, isn't there supposed to be a cliff wall behind that rushing water? I shrug and follow Spec through the waterfall...and into a hidden cave...Wow!
"This is where the prism is located, deep within this cave. Go on inside, I will follow."
Ok then, I go deeper in the cave, Spec is letting me in the lead...The cave seems straightforward, so I guess there won't be any trouble of leading, since I don't know which path to take if there's more paths...But as we get deeper, the light gets dimmer, and I can barely see in front of me. My red ruby eyes is probably flickering in the darkness, which could lead Spec to me if I look at him...
"Alright, Ken'ichi, your remember the red prism piece I had givin you? It's time for you to use it, I didn't bring my prisms with me..."
I look back at Spec, my prism piece? I don't even know how to use it...
"How?" I asks, pondering for a while.
"Did you ever have a situation where a bright red aura appeared around your body at one point?"
I think back...back before I woke up in Spec's home...back before I was killed...back before Kamali was reincarnated...back to that Darksoul...Wait a second! The prism piece DID activate when that Darksoul was going to kill me, I was sorrounded by that red aura. I nod, confirming I had.
Spec continued, "Can you try to harness the strength and feelings you felt when you had that happening? If you do so, your aura will appear once again, resinmating you with a firey red light that will guide us through here..."
"I'll...I'll try."
I look into the darkness in front of me. I close my eyes and begin to think back when my family was taken away from me...those nights I had to sleep by myself...that darkness sorrounding me when I was alone...that hatred I've felt when I was alone...those humans...not to mention...that grizzly old man...
I hear Spec starting to encouraging me, "Just feel the burning. the redness of the lightening fire, the warmth of guideness, just fill that through your mind, along with the emotion you feel when alone in a dark world, no where to go. You are only one with the red passion if you control it with your feelings. Bring it all out with effort, and keep it consistant, you are able to light the darkened path, if you put your mind to it. You can do it."
I do as Spec said, feel the burning of the fire, the warmth of guideness, everything he said. I continue my thoughts, deep and hard..I begin feeling stronger, more warm...I open my eyes and breath out all my air, and the darkness inside the cave was pierced by light, I look at my body to see the red aura. I smile and cry out with success and happiness.
"I did it! I did it, Spec!" I cry as I smile wider, "How come you never taught me this before?"
Spec stayed silent for a few moments, "You weren't ready at the time you were givin this gift, Ken'ichi. Now you are, let us go deeper and I will show you the alter of the prism that we must gather."
Spec gets up off and stands side by side with me. I keep my concentration to keep my aura up and lighting up the cave, but I feel that I don't need to concentrate hard to keep it up.
as we get deeper in the cave, the rushing of the waterfall begins to fade away to silence. I look around as we continue walking deeper, everything seems quite nice and cool in here. I look ahead to see something as we get close to it, I've never seen such a structure, so I'm pretty sure that's what we've been looking for.
"Is that what we were looking for?" I ask Spec as I point to the thing in front of us.

"Is that what we were looking for?" I hear Ken'ichi ask, as he points his hand through the aura at a structure erecting from the ground... I look at it, and see a sparkle of light, most likely from the prism.
"Yes, this is it." I responded, moving closer to the alter. I looked around the cave walls, seeing as though this is where it ends.. I look down upon the alter to see the yellow piercing lightning prism... I remember now why I'm unable to obtain it without Ken'ichi.
"This alter is protected. It is unappaproachable by any one. See, if I try to touch it, it will electrify my hand, burning it and paralyize me momentarilly. I did this once and I could not move my hand for 2 hours." I stood for a moment looking at Ken'ichi. "This is why I came up with the idea of taking you with me. If not one can take it, then surely two shall successfully forge the prism from it's place."
I walked up to Ken'ichi. "This is the thing; you must concentrate all your efforts of your firey power into one space, and then with as much strength as you can muster, breakthrough your power into the barrier around the prism. While you're doing that, I may, just may be able to take the prism from the grasp of the hold it's under."
He made a comment and then asked once again how exactly he'd be able to do this.
"Well, just do what you did earlier, only focus it all into an elemental attack. Bring your soul to understand the strength of this attack, for it is your basic blast move. No matter the size of the source, that is, your prism piece, it will be just as strong for this particular ability. It may be used fro attack, defense, or other means of uses, once you harness the ability, you'll have no trouble at all using it, just think it and you got it. Now give it a try."
I waited for his response...

"Yes, this is it." Spec responded to my question.
He moves closer to the prism and looks around. I watch him as he looks at the prism...I wonder why he doesn't take it? It shouldn't take this long to grab it off of the altar the prism is on...
"This alter is protected. It is unappaproachable by any one. See, if I try to touch it, it will electrify my hand, burning it and paralyize me momentarilly. I did this once and I could not move my hand for 2 hours."
Youch, paralized hand for two hours, it must hurt. Spec turns to me and continues, "This is why I came up with the idea of taking you with me. If not one can take it, then surely two shall successfully forge the prism from it's place."
Hm...What can I do? I'm just a cub, I'm not a powerful fighter like Spec, and sure not as magical as him...
I just watch Spec as he walks up to me, "This is the thing; you must concentrate all your efforts of your firey power into one space, and then with as much strength as you can muster, breakthrough your power into the barrier around the prism. While you're doing that, I may, just may be able to take the prism from the grasp of the hold it's under."
"Firey power? From my prism piece?" I look at my body to see the red aura is still there, "Hm...I can try...but how can I do it?"
Spec explains, "Well, just do what you did earlier, only focus it all into an elemental attack. Bring your soul to understand the strength of this attack, for it is your basic blast move. No matter the size of the source, that is, your prism piece, it will be just as strong for this particular ability. It may be used fro attack, defense, or other means of uses, once you harness the ability, you'll have no trouble at all using it, just think it and you got it. Now give it a try."
I nod, "I'll try..."
I pad and stand in front of the altar...OK, how am I going to do this? Spec said to focus all of this energy into an elemental attack, a blaster of some sort...I look at my paw and look back at the altar. Holding my balance, I raise my left paw and point to the altar and focus all my energy into my paw. A more thicker red aura forms on my paw, and I can feel the burn and warmth of the aura going to my paw...Just a little bit more...
"I...I think I got it." I say as I see the aura on my paw getting thicker and brighter...Now, to test this out...

Keni nods, "I'll try..." Ken'ichi pads in front of the altar. He looks down, and looks back at the altar. He stands up straight, keeping his balence, and raises his left paw, pointing it to the altar. A flicker of red energy comes from his paw, and it starts growing... He keeps it going, and strengthens it more... "I...I think I got it." He says as the energy is getting brighter and more powerful... He looks as if he's ready. I say to him "Now." "HA!" He pushes his arm toward the alter, creating a strong beaming blast of firey red energy that once covered his arm and paw. The blast envelopes the alter, and a bright blast of white light takes place, electricity sparks and fire cinders around the alter, breaking the void-like barrier around the prism. I walked up to it slowly, as the energy was still resinating in smoke around the prism. I pulled my arm into my sleeve a bit, and touched the prism with my sleeve. It was safe. I reached my hand for the prism. But it wouldn't come out. I pulled harder, and harder. And finally he came loose. The electral barrier came right back on, right as soon as I pulled it out. I looked at the prism, my face beaming with a joyful success. "Great job, Ken'ichi!" I looked at him...He looked wore out..Oh boy.. Wait, what's going on...? The cave is felt with wind... The electric barrier becomes larger, and then bursts, as the wind sucks up through a hole in the alter. Wait, what's going on?! I feel my soul being nearly ripped from my body, but I fight it. This isn't right, what is the matter here? Ken'ichi was still breathing heavily from the blast, but he looked up and gasped. "What is this?!" Ken'ichi asks as he looks in horror at the dark winds bringing force up into his fur. I saw...a resinating dark fazey illusion rise from Ken'ichi... It looked as if it was...his spirit? What in the!? "Keni!" I tried moving foward, but the energy was too great. The white markings on Ken'ichi began glowing furiously. The ...'spirit' of Ken'ichi died out into specks and was consumed into the wind inside the hole that was devouring the air space around us. Wait, no way I'm gunna let him die! I ran towards the overwhelming force, and felt my body almost as if it were ripping apart. I fell unconciouse to the wind. Keni... What...has happened... where... are you... ...going...? .... ___ I awake...I look around to see myself still in the cave, right near where the alter was. But I see a large hole in it's place... I still have the prism... I look at Ken'ichi's body...Was this a dream? I tried waking up Ken'ichi. "Keni?" No response...I lifted his eyelid...and saw...nothing...just white...No... Wait, wherever his spirit had supposevely gone, maybe he's still alive. I must find out. I look inside the dark hole, and jump down inside without fear. I look around as land. Darkness...Except... A light brightness was illuminating one small spot... There I saw a dark figure... Was that Ken'ichi? "Keni?" I asked in the darkness... I saw the figure turn around. His face was shadowed by nothing but his hair. His muzzel looked dark grey... He was just as tall as me, a little shorter... He stood like an anthro...Suddenly, he faded away, with no expression of noting...the faded particles of him flew up the hole and above. I jumped back out... There I saw the particles go inside Ken'ichi... "H-hhuh...wha.." He awoke... "Keni, are you alright?" I said, climbing out from the hole. "I...I don't know..." He said, almost exhausted... "Come on, lemme get you up, you look completely out of energy, what happened?" I picked him up to his feet.. "I don't know... Something...weird...I saw a white light... And then I felt myself still standing up... and then I felt myself fall again..." The faint words of him disappeared, the only illumination was from his white markings... "Ken'ichi, your markings... They glow..." He looked at his arms and his legs. Indeed they were glowing like before... What was going on...? He still was his normal self, but what was that... that figure? "Come on, lets go home, I have the prism now, thank you for helping me. We will figure this out tomarrow..." Ken'ichi gave his comment and aggreed... He tried following me, but apparently he was almost unable to move... Instead I just picked up the tired keni, and laid him on my shoulder. He'd be getting too big for this soon, but I did what I could, and let him rest as we went home... OOC: Keni, your almost to the big 'happening' part!

"Now." Spec commands me as I ready the blast...
"HA!" I push my arm toward the altar, creating a strong beaming blast of firey red energy from my arm. The blast envelopes the alter, and a bright blast of white light takes place, electricity sparks and fire circles around the altar, breaking the barrier around the prism.
I watch as Spec walk up to it slowly...Man, that wore me out big time, I don't think I can move...Feel so tired...
"Great job, Ken'ichi!" Spec tells me as he comes back with the prism in hand.
Huh? Why the wind filling the cave all of a sudden?
Something happens to the altar, a big hole just appeared there. I'm too tired and breathing heavily to pretty much do anything. Wait a minute...I feel weird. I look up and gasp.
"What is this?!" I ask as I look in horror at some sort of dark winds bringing force up into my fur. Something is coming out of me, and I suddenly feel faint, I drop to the ground, and begin to begin losing consciousness.
"Keni!" Last thing I heard from Spec...
=======
"H-hhuh...wha.." I moarn as I come to...
"Keni, are you alright?" I heard Spec's voice echoing in my head...
"I...I don't know..." I exhaustedly said...trying to get up...
"Come on, lemme get you up, you look completely out of energy, what happened?" Spec says as he picks me up to my feet.
"I don't know... Something...weird...I saw a white light... And then I felt myself still standing up... and then I felt myself fall again..."
I feel the fainting feeling going, but I still feel tired and woozy...
"Ken'ichi, your markings... They glow..."
My markings? I look at my arms and legs...Yeah, they are glowing, but why? What does this mean?
"Come on, lets go home, I have the prism now, thank you for helping me. We will figure this out tomarrow..."
"You're welcome, glad to help you out..." I try to shake off the woozyness, but more of it remains, "Yeah, lets go home..."
I stand up and try following Spec, but I flinch and almost fall flat on my face. Spec noticed this and picked me up, laying me on his shoulder. I rest my head on Spec and try to regain my energy, but I end up feeling light-headed...and then...sleepy...I lose my grip on reality and fall asleep...

When I get out of the deep woodland part, the house isn't too far. The night has come over the sky... Ken'ichi is sound asleep... I can understand why he was so exhasuted, after all, that WAS his first time using one of his powerful abilities...
I finally arrive at the house. I smell food cooked and ready to eat on the kitchen counter, but I feel Keni is a bit more tired than hungry at the moment. So, I go upstairs, after putting the food in the fridge for later, and go into my room. I lay Ken'ichi on sleeping bag, and then put up all my prisms by the windows.
[glow=yellow,2,300]The yellow diamond-lightning shaped electric prism,[/glow] [glow=red,2,300]the red comet shaped fire prism,[/glow] [glow=blue,2,300]the light blue icicle shaped ice prism,[/glow] [glow=green,2,300]and the green pear shaped nature prism...[/glow] All of these has special abilites... I just wonder though... Just how much power can the red prism piece convey thrrough Ken'ichi? What about Niki's green piece...? I look at the green prism and the red prism where there pieces were chipped off, as they hang in the moonlit window... How much change exactly did it cause for Ken'ichi, or how much will it?.. I am curious... But now I must sleep. I look to Ken'ichi, seeing him sleeping soundly...What was that dark figure...?
I walk to my bed and lay down under the covers... We'll see what happens...tomarrow...
"Goodnight, Ken'ichi." I said aloud, even though he was silently asleep. I fall to slumber as well...

=DREAM=
Snow...Snow is what I see...I wander aimlessly in the deadly snowstorm of winter...And somehow, I'm surviving...
"Gah!" I cry as I cover my eyes with my paw from the violent winds...
I gotta get out of this blizzard...Wait...What's that...I see someone walking straight to me, walking on two legs like Spec and Space...Smaller than Spec...Who's that?
I cover my eyes again as the wind picks up again, my muzzle getting covered with snow...But, then the winds die down...Something is blocking the wind and snow from hitting me...
I open my eyes to see that figure that was walking toward me standing right in front of me. I look up at him...His muzzle is light-gray...I can't see his face, his hairs shadows his face...He looks at me and his eyes give off a ruby color glow, but his face still shadowed...
I close my eyes and look down, then suddenly the wind picks up again. I open my eyes to see that entity gone...How did...Where'd he...?

I open my eyes a bit to feel the sunlight hitting them, for another day has begun... I wake up fully and yawn as I stretch my arms from out of the covers in my bed... Hm..I look to Ken'ichi's sleeping bag and see his ears prodding out from udnerneath the cover of the sleeping bag...He must of found a way to snuggle inside, probably was during the night when he was really tired.. I got up out of my bed and nudged the buldging shoulder from the sleeping bag as he lay sideways on the floor inside the bag, his face not showing.
"Time to get up, Keni. It's a new day..." I said softly... He moaned, apprehensive from waking up..
"Ohmmmm..." He moaned tirledy, not showing any sign of lifting away from his comfortable position...
"Comon, get yourself up..." No response... I sighed and walked out my door, to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash up...I looked at myself in the mirror as I brushed, seeing my hair a little messed up... I got my comb from the cabinet, and cleaned it up a bit... After doing all this, I put up the things in the bathroom and then...
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"
I heard a huge scream from my room! I ran out of the bathroom, into my room.
"What's the matter, Ken'i----?!"
I stopped short and looked before at what I saw....
"Wha...Who...Ke.Keni?!" I gasped, seeing the dark figure before me... Is that...? No it can't be, but...wait.. What... Huh?

Hm...whoa, what a weird dream...Under the covers of my sleeping bag? How I'd got under here? Oh well...A little warmth never hurt anyone...I'm still so sleepy, not fully recovered from yesterday...
"Time to get up, Keni. It's a new day..." Spec tries to wake me up as he nudges my shoulder.
I wanted to say 'just a few more minutes,' but all that came out was a tired moan, "Ohmmmm..."
"C'mon, get yourself up..." Spec insists, then he sighs as I keep myself from getting up...
Sleepyness...wore off...I open my eyes and gave a yawn and roll my body to lay on my back...Wait a second, something's wrong here...I feel funny...
I sit up and rub my head, maybe it's just the fuzziness in my hea-what the heck?!
I look at my...human paws?! No no no no no, this can't be, I gotta be dreaming! I come out from under the covers and stand up on...two feet?!
"What the...?" I whisper to myself as I look at my body...
I'm...I'm standing like Spec and Space do...like...like an anthro...I scan around my body...I look at my legs...my arms...I feel around my head with my arms...I can't believe this...It's gotta be a dream...Wake up Ken'ichi!
I close my eyes and shake my head and look at my body...I'm...I'm...
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"
I hear Spec entering the room and I look at him, "What's the matter, Ken'i----?!"
Spec stops short as his eyes are glued on me, "Wha...Who...Ke.Keni?!"
I'm as shocked as he is, how did this happen to me? I turn to Spec's mirror to look at my reflection...My fur is the same as always, black fur, silver mane, dark-gray muzzle, gray eyepatches, including the white markings from when I was materialized...This...This can't be...I'm an anthro like Spec...But...But how?
"Spec, what just happened to me?! I'm...I'm an anthro now like you!"

A vision popped in my head... The figure I saw in the dark shadows last night in the cave.. It looks like Keni...now... I came back to realitiy when Keni asked
"Spec, what just happened me?! I'm...I'm an anthro now like you!"
I shook my head, my eyes still open semi wide.. "I...I don't know, this is very strange..." I walked to my bed and sat down on it, a bit still shocked from this... How did he become this...? Ken'ichi tried sitting, or even standing, but he was having a hard time standing on two legs at all... I looked to my closet...I walked over to it and opened the door to it and grabbed some clothes from it that I bought for a sale... A black sleeveless shirt and a pair of blue long shorts.. I pulled them out and walked to Keni.
"Here." He held out his arms and I gave him the clothes. "Try these on."
"Wha.. These are like yours?" He asked, looking at them.
"Yes, you put them on the same way I do. They're a different style, but I'm sure you'll like them. Try putting them on while I think of how exactly this predicament happened..." I went to my bed and sat down for a moment, thinking as I placed my hand on my chin, elbow resting on my knee... Now.. Lets see...compare and contrast. First off, the prisms...They lay out a variety of abilites and elements for me, but more over important is the fact that if I die or come close to death with a new prism in my possesion, I may be reincarnated, my soul taken from me and then reopened with a new species for me to use...Such as my wolf and bear forms... But this is more strange...Since Keni is...err...was feral, he was never meant to have different forms... But now, from using that energy from the red prism piece...and then getting hurt further from that wind.... He must of gone only to becoming an anthro... Reincarnated as an anthro...
I look up from my thinking to see Ken'ichi struggling the last bit to get his clothes on... He popped his head out the shirt hole and looked at me...
"Ken'ichi... I think the red prism piece might of done this. You see, you know that I have different forms such as a wolf and bear, correct?" I asked him. He nodded simply..
"Well, as far as that goes, I am able to obtain new forms from new prisms simply from nearly dieing or death, and then when I am reincarnated, I have a new form, such as when I fell off the mountain and first became a bear... I told you that a while ago... But, I haven't all the info about this yet, i have yet to know all of this...this magic... As far as I know, the red prism piece enable that magic within you when you were nearly out of energy. And then the wind had come from an unknown source, which then took your soul and amplified it with this new form..." I nodded my head, eyes closed, thinking that this was the proper explanation, for all I know... I looked up to Ken'ichi to hear his comments...

"I...I don't know, this is very strange..." Spec answers.
I can't believe what's happening right now...First I'm an ordinary bear, the next thing I know I'm an anthro just like Spec!
I just want to sit down and clear my head...But even trying to sit down as an anthro is tough for me...And trying to stand up on two feet is tough enough since I've spend my entire life standing on four!
I just keep glancing down at my new body...How did this actually happen? I...I look the same as that entity I saw in my dream last night...Could there be some connection?
I snap out of my thoughts when Spec said, "Here."
I look at him to see him handing me some clothes...
"Wha.. These are like yours?" I ask while looking at the things Spec gave me.
"Yes, you put them on the same way I do. They're a different style, but I'm sure you'll like them. Try putting them on while I think of how exactly this predicament happened..."
Spec sits down on the bed while I look at the clothes Spec gave me. It's the same thing Spec is wearing, so I might've well put it on too...
I unfold the blue one first, it turns out to be a pair of pants. After putting them on, I study it's design. The pants has a pair of pockets, including two more below near my knees, sealed off by zippers. I take the black clothing and unfold it, seems like a shirt, sleeveless one too...
I put it over my head...but I seem to be having trouble putting it on correctly...Left arm goes here...Right arm goes here...Ah, perfect! I pull down on my shirt to pop my head out of the shirt hole...There. I look at Spec after I finish.
"Ken'ichi... I think the red prism piece might of done this. You see, you know that I have different forms such as a wolf and bear, correct?" He asks me, and I nod.
Spec continues, "Well, as far as that goes, I am able to obtain new forms from new prisms simply from nearly dieing or death, and then when I am reincarnated, I have a new form, such as when I fell off the mountain and first became a bear... I told you that a while ago... But, I haven't all the info about this yet, i have yet to know all of this...this magic... As far as I know, the red prism piece enable that magic within you when you were nearly out of energy. And then the wind had come from an unknown source, which then took your soul and amplified it with this new form..."
I ponder about that, if that's true, then maybe my prism piece has enough to do the same to me as they do to Spec when he's near death...Or something close to that...
"Maybe back there I was probably too much out of energy and I couldn't take it and died. And instead of dying completely, the prism piece did me a favor and saved me from dying. But instead of keeping me as a bear, it transformed my soul to an anthro and I somehow changed overnight..." I pause, "But the question is how am I going to change back to a bear? If I come back to Niki looking like this, he'll have a heart attack."
I scratch the back of my neck as I hear Spec's comment. Indeed this is a big situation...But what to do about it?
"Well, the damage is done. And..." I begin to remember something, then I smirk, "And I always wanted to know what it's like to be an anthro, why not take advantage of this and then figure out more about this situation?"

Ken'ichi ponders for a moment... Then he responds, "Maybe back there I was probably too much out of energy and I couldn't take it and died. And instead of dying completely, the prism piece did me a favor and saved me from dying. But instead of keeping me as a bear, it transformed my soul to an anthro and I somehow changed overnight..." Keni pauses, "But the question is how am I going to change back to a bear? If I come back to Niki looking like this, he'll have a heart attack."
I give my comment. "That all may be very well true...And the problem...with changing back...Well, we'll see what happens later, we have a few months before winter is over, by the time we will have figured out an answer.."
Ken'ichi scratchs the back of his neck... In a true sense, there really is nothing we can do, for such a situation as this, for I have no knowledge of changing back if one were originally feral...
"Well, the damage is done. And..." Ken'ichi paused for a moment, and then a smirk appeared on his face, "And I always wanted to know what it's like to be an anthro, why not take advantage of this and then figure out more about this situation?"
"Well..." I looked down and held my hand on my chin..."...Alright, why not..? Besides, you might be an anthro for quite sometime before we coem up with a solution..." His smirk turned into a worried expression.. "But, uhhh, don't worry, I'll make sure you have a way to transform back, we'll figure it out. Okay?"
He nodded and smiled.
"So, first things' first... We have to begin getting the basics..." I walked up to Ken'ichi. "Try walking. Lets see how you do with that first..."
I watched him closely as he looked down at his new body and his new two feet.. He moved his left foot foward slowly, and tried to balence... He almost fell, but he put his foot down finally. He then moved the other one...
"only two feet, remember. one foot in front of the other..." I encouraged him. He walked a bit more, and was getting the hang of it. "See, ain't too bad, is it? Let's go downstairs and we'll learn you some table manners, just for these months."
"Table-....?" He looked confused. I just motioned for him to come along downstairs with me, and we commenced a bit more normal basics... When we got down stairs, I went to get some food. I set out the plates and forks and knifes and spoons.
This hopefully wouldn't take long...
_______*time speeder*________
After not TOO long, Ken'ichi was getting used to the utensils... But it took nearly a half hour to get him to lift the fork with his new thumbed paws. After he ate some of the fish pieces I showed him how to cut and some rice foods that had been saved, he was full for breakfast. I looked at the small clock on the wall in the living room... 11:00 am...
"Let's go outside and we'll get some basic exercise. Running, jumping, and a few other things are what your gunna need to know, heh.."
He agreed and gave his comment. Space, Diamond, and Tatkret were all outside. They had already been up all morning... They woke up earlier from Ken'ichi's yelling, so they've been doing nothing but walking around after eating and stuff. Diamond sniffed around with Tatkret by her side. I feel those two have something they like in eachother, hehe... Space was just looking out across the skys and horizon... They all saw Ken'ichi's new form.. Questioning us and everything after seeing him, I explained the situation to them. They understood...somewhat, but Space was mostly intrigued...I could tell... But he continued about his business... Me and Ken'ichi told them bye as we walked across the path into the woods deeper, for a little hike of our own..

"Well..." Spec readies to respond to my suggestion, "...Alright, why not..? Besides, you might be an anthro for quite sometime before we come up with a solution..."
My smirk dissapears and out comes a worried expression...How long does he mean?
"But, uhhh, don't worry, I'll make sure you have a way to transform back, we'll figure it out. Okay?"
I nod and smile, we will figure this out, I can trust Spec to help me with this. For now, like I said, I got to get used to being an anthro and learn how to act and live like one.
"So, first things' first... We have to begin getting the basics..." Spec walks over to me and continues, "Try walking. Lets see how you do with that first..."
Uh...walking? As an anthro? I look down at my new body and legs...I can guess walking on four like when I was bear is out of the question...I move my left foot foward slowly while trying to balance...This is harder than when on all four, I almost fall but I put my foot down to regain my balance. I look at my right leg and do the same, this time while holding down my balance.
"only two feet, remember. one foot in front of the other..." Spec encourages me.
I get determined and walk around a bit more, keeping my balance as I raise one foot up to step forward. I've seen to be getting the hang of it.
"See, ain't too bad, is it? Let's go downstairs and we'll learn you some table manners, just for these months."
"Table-....?" A confused expression shows up on my face, what did Spec meant about table manners?
He just motions me to follow him, that's when we reach the stairs. I stop and watch as Spec goes down the stairs, looking at how he does it. I mimic his way to go downstairs, which it took a little bit more of balance, but it was easy when I had the hang of it...
********
Ugh...Spec makes it look so easy! Of course, it may seem easy to anyone, but I just became an anthro, so I'm not used to ANYTHING anthros do yet. Even using these utensils to eat my food is tough for me. I mean, I never had human paws before, so I gotta learn how to use them to grab this fork and knife...
After learning how to use the fork AND the knife, I ate some of the fish pieces I cut on my own and some rice, that pretty much filled me my stomach up. At least I get to eat these delicious foods now...
"Let's go outside and we'll get some basic exercise. Running, jumping, and a few other things are what your gunna need to know, heh.."
I sit straigth after lying back for a while, "Alright then, the sooner the better I supposed."
Spec and I head outside where Space, Diamond, and Tatkret are. I guess they have been up for a while now...After my scream when I found out I was an anthro, anyone within a few miles could wake up, hehe...
Suddenly, everyone's eyes goes to me...Oh great, how am I going to explain them this? They already started asking what happened to me. Luckily, Spec took care of explaining to them the situation. As Spec explained, I glanced at Space...He seemed...intrigued...I wonder what he's thinking...
After all of that, Spec and I gave our byes to everyone as we walk into the woods. I've gotten the hang of walking on my two legs, it's not so hard to get the hang of it. But as we get deeper in the woods, I couldn't help but ponder what Spec has planned for me. He already told me what he needs to teach me, but what if he held back some stuff?
Ah well, guess I'll find out soon enough!
