While we walk I look to Ken'ichi.
"So, Keni, how does it feel to be an anthro?" I ask him. He gives me his opinion, as we continue to walk.. I look to my right to see a large tree...This reminds me of something...
"Do you remember, when we first met, that Koda raced up that large tree, and I did the same?" I asked him.
"I think so..." He scratches his head.
"Well, I can hop up trees just like I did before, in any form. So, why don't you watch me, and we can train you to jump a little bit so you can get to higher places easier." I suggested. He nodded,
"I suppose." We walked over to the tree before us, and I looked up it. I demonstrated by hopping up it like I had previously in the woods north of here, only this time I was much faster since I was in my fox form. I looked down at Ken'ichi when I got to the top.
"Did you see me? Try it. Just take one brach at a time, just try climbing if you have to. Anthros have enhanced abilities, so we are able to do things that are impossible for humans or ferals." I watched him from atop of the tree... He looked a bit nervous, but after a few moments, he crouched, and then hopped up the first branch. He did a good jump! I could see him smile, as he hopped from that branch to the next, and so on. But he almost lost his footing halfway up. He grabbed onto the tree's trunk to regain balence, and then continued upward. He made it up where I was, as I squated on the tree limb. He panted and looked at me as he hung onto the branch beside me to keep balence.
"I..did it...!" He smiled and looked at me. I smiled as well.
"Yep, you sure did! Now, to go down..." I looked down...He looked down, and then hesitation came over him...He looked...a bit nervous...
"Do...Down?" He said.
"Yes. Down!" I jumped off the limb, falling downward, and keeping myself into a straight landing stance, and when I fell to the ground, I kneeled down as I slammed to the ground. I looked up at the tree.
"Just do the same I did! You can do it." I waited for him to try it...

"So, Keni, how does it feel to be an anthro?" Spec asks me as we continue our walk.
"It's amazing! It feels great! I feel like if I'm more free on my movements!" I reply with great entusiasm.
We continue our walk when Spec mentions, "Do you remember, when we first met, that Koda raced up that large tree, and I did the same?"
I scratch my head while trying to remember, "I think so..."
"Well, I can hop up trees just like I did before, in any form. So, why don't you watch me, and we can train you to jump a little bit so you can get to higher places easier."
I nod, "I suppose."
We walk over to a big tree to our right, Spec looks up to it as I do the same. Boy, that's a pretty tall tree, I wonder what Spec has...planned? Where the heck did he go? I look up the tree and see Spec jumping up from branch to branch at a good speed, getting higher and higher each hop.
When Spec reaches the top, he looks down at me and cries out, "Did you see me? Try it. Just take one brach at a time, just try climbing if you have to. Anthros have enhanced abilities, so we are able to do things that are impossible for humans or ferals."
I look up at the giant tree nervously...How can I climb all that? Sure, I could do it as a bear, but I could have some trouble as an anthro. I gather my courage and give off a deep sigh and then hop up the first branch. I smile...OK, that was easy enough, but this is just the tip of the iceberg.
I take another deep sigh and hop from branch to branch, from the closest one to the next, getting higher with each hop. I reach half of the way up, but I lose my balance and I almost fall, luckily I was quick enough to grab the tree's trunk to hold myself from falling and to regain my balance. I sigh in relief and continue my way up until I reach the top where Spec was waiting for me. I pants and look at Spec as I hang onto the branch beside him to keep my balance.
"I..did it...!" I smile as I look at Spec.
Spec also smiles, "Yep, you sure did! Now, to go down..."
Down?! Oh man...I look down, that's a long way down...I look at Spec with a nervous look again, "Do...Down?"
"Yes. Down!" Spec jumps off the branch and falls downward. I look at him as he keeps himself in a straight landing stance, and kneels down as he slams to the ground.
Spec looks up at me on the tree, "Just do the same I did! You can do it."
I gulp as I release the tree's trunk and look down...Well, this is it! I jump down the tree and try to hold the same straigth landing stance Spec was in, the wind blowing against my fur as I descent down to the ground. I reach the ground and I land hard on my feet! The force of the imppact forced me to kneel down like Spec did. I stayed there kneeled down while trying to recover from the shock of the impact and I fall back sitting down.
I shake my head to get rid of the shock and look up at Spec, "I admit, going down is easier than going up. But going up is much smoother!"

I watch closely as Ken'ichi begins to jump off the tree branch as I had done. He descends rather quickly, the same way I had, and then when he made contact with the ground, he seemed to have caused a small shockwave through the earth. He sits down for a moment, catches his breath and shakes his head...
"I admit, going down is easier than going up. But going up is much smoother!" He says, with a bit of enthusiasm.
"That's great, Ken'ichi. Now, I'll race you to the lake!"
"Race?" He asks.
"Yea! Come on!" I begin running ahead, and he follows.
"Hey, wait up! Haha!"
---time speed up 2.x---
When we get to the lake not too far from our path, we take the rest of the day to swim for a while. I teach him how to swim, since he isn't quite used to swimming as an anthro. After a while of swimming, we run around and play some games, like tag and such, that is simple and easy to have fun with. Hide and seek isn't really the most learning experiance, but it might help with perception, since when you trying to find someone, you may never know where they are... Just some of these simple and fun games entertained both Ken'ichi and me. The day began growing deeper into evening. Darkness protruded through the skys and shadows set forth on the ground. We went home for the day, it was getting too dark to be out... When we go to the house, Space and Diamond were at the door...
---time speed back 1x----
"Spectrum. Tatkret has decided to leave. He's out back waiting for you..." Diamond said solemnly...
"Oh..? Ok.." I walked back around the house to see Tatkret looking at the stars...
"Tat. How goes it?" I ask him from behind. He turns his head..
"It's going alright. I trust Diamond has told you that I must go, right?" He repsonded.
"Yes..." Ken'ichi walked up behind me, and I looked to him, then back at Tatkret. Ken'ichi really hadn't gotten the chance to know Tatkret that much...
"I must go on to find myself, Spectrum. I don't know who I am. My life has no beggining, no middle, and I certainly don't want to see an end to it without me knowing my purpose..." He looked up at the night sky again. "That is why I must leave. Thank you for taking me along on your little quest." He looked down to the ground, then at me. "I understand that your life is riddled with many conquests that must be taken care of, that is why I belive we should meet when you have finished your tasks and have spare time. I will somewhere around the area you first found me, so if you ever feel it is time to see me again, just look out there somewhere." He got up to his feet..
I felt an overwhelming guilt... Had I not paid attention to him enough? "Tatkret...I am sorry if I have made you feel neglected, I-"
"No, it is not that, Spectrum, that's not it at all. You have served me a great pleasure to let me come along... I had a good time, and Diamond is a rather good girl, I do wish to see her again. But until you are completed with your duties, there is no reason why I should aimlessly come along when there is nothing I can do but complain about being hungry.." He chuckled a bit. I remember our time goin after the prism...
"Alright then. Whatever you wish to do, Tatkret, but I will always be able to help you... Here.." I took off one of the prisms I ahd taken along, the icicle prism... With a sharp chip of my thumb, a prism shard was taken off, and I held it out in front of Tatkret.
"What is this...?" Before Tatkret could speak further, the prism piece embedded within him through his chest. He looked a bit shocked, as his eyes closed, and glowed... I looked again, as his violet eyes turned an ice blue aura.
"That shard... will enable you to communicate with me through telepathy, when you feel a strong need for it. It will also help convey energy through you, and maybe even help you discover some truth to yourself..." I got up from my kneeling positon from where I had gave him the prism piece..
"Thank you, Spectrum..." He walked back a few feet... "I will never forget you, I will see you again!" He turned and began running deep into the woods, back north where I had encountered him... A few moments later, after Keni and I walked into the house, a strong upstrung howl could be heard from the trees, rising to the sky... I felt that Taktret would be alright, I would see him again for sure. Diamond had already said goodbye before us, and so everyone had gone to sleep. Keni and I went off to bed. The next few weeks would be pure, and nothing would be very exciting. Finally, a little peace... Along with this... Keni would learn more of being an anthro...
DREAM: A dream finally entered my mind for the first time... I saw Ken'ichi...and Kadzait... and Niki...And everyone else...Even my parents...? What sort of dream...is this a memory dream...? Thoughts were compelled by lryics to a song of somesort... Quotes were heard from my friends and my family... I couldn't make it all out...Suddenly it all disappeared... And before me I was in the dark room... I felt the surroundings change... My dream was being reformed... I studied the effects and details, and then I entered a realm of some sort... I was put into a long state of thoughts and feelings... I was reflecting on my past in a dream I was aware I was dreaming in...
It kept coming...and coming...

"That's great, Ken'ichi." Spec says as I sit on the ground, "Now, I'll race you to the lake!"
"Race?" I ask as I stand up.
"Yea! Come on!"
Spec gets a head start, I shake my head and follow behind him, "Hey, wait up! Haha!"
I learned how to walk as an anthro, so running is the same as walking, only much faster.
----------
We reach a lake not too far from where we were, there we spend the rest of the day. Spec teaches me how to swim, it's different then when I was a bear, but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. After a while of swimming, we head into the forest and run around while aso playing some games. I do remember these games, I used to play them with Kamali two years ago, though it's slightly different playing them as an anthro, it's still as fun as I remember. Tag, racing, hide and seek, you name it!
Just when I look up into the sky, the sun has already started its parting to the other side of the world, and the darkness of night is starting to fall down upon us. Night has come, and soon I find myself walking back to the house with Spec. But when we got there, I notice Space and Diamond by the door, I figure they were waiting up for us...
I hear Diamond saying solemnly, "Spectrum. Tatkret has decided to leave. He's out back waiting for you..."
"Oh..? Ok.." Spec responded and walked to the back of the house.
I stretch my arms up and give a slight yawn, all that running and swimming has wore me off, not to mention the slight soaked pants of mine is damping my fur. Hm...I should at least follow Spec and say my goodbyes to Tatkret, since I never got the chance to know him better. I walk to the back of the house and heard Tatkret asking Spec if Diamond told us that he was leaving...
"Yes..." I reply for Spec as I walk closer to them and I stand behind Spec, looking at Tatkret.
"I must go on to find myself, Spectrum. I don't know who I am. My life has no beggining, no middle, and I certainly don't want to see an end to it without me knowing my purpose...That is why I must leave. Thank you for taking me along on your little quest. I understand that your life is riddled with many conquests that must be taken care of, that is why I belive we should meet when you have finished your tasks and have spare time. I will somewhere around the area you first found me, so if you ever feel it is time to see me again, just look out there somewhere."
A silence fell upon us as Tatkret gets up on his feet...Then Spec broke that silence, "Tatkret...I am sorry if I have made you feel neglected, I-"
Tatkret cuts him off, "No, it is not that, Spectrum, that's not it at all. You have served me a great pleasure to let me come along... I had a good time, and Diamond is a rather good girl, I do wish to see her again. But until you are completed with your duties, there is no reason why I should aimlessly come along when there is nothing I can do but complain about being hungry.."
Tatkret chuckles after saying that, I'm sure he's going to be OK. By the way he's acting, I could probably tell he probably has gone through the same that I did...Living life alone...Just him and the darkness...
Spec starts saying, "Alright then. Whatever you wish to do, Tatkret, but I will always be able to help you... Here.."
I look at Spec to see him take off one of his prisms...An icicle-shaped prism...Hm...I watch as he chips off a prism shard and I holds it out in front of Tatkret...Is he going to do the same thing he did to me and Niki?
"What is this...?"
Before Tatkret could finish his question, the prism piece flew to his chest and pierced it, going inside his body and intertwhining with his soul. I glance at Tatkret as he opens his eyes and his beautiful violet eyes turns into an ice blue aura...Like my silver eyes turned into a red ruby aura...
Spec starts explaining this to Tatkret, "That shard... will enable you to communicate with me through telepathy, when you feel a strong need for it. It will also help convey energy through you, and maybe even help you discover some truth to yourself..."
Hm...That sounds pretty cool. I remember when that exact thing happened through my crystal that allowed me to communicate with Spec...I take my crystal from around my neck and look through it to see that carving of two bears...Though, that mystical glow it once had has burned out...I guess when I unlocked Raise from this crystal, it must've zapped the magical energy it had out of it...
"Thank you, Spectrum...I will never forget you, I will see you again!" Tatkret's words echoed through my ears.
I raised my head in time to see Tatkret turn and beings to run into the woods to the north...Goodbye Tatkret, I wonder if I'll see him again...
I follow Spec into the house...And just a little bit after that, a strong upstrung howl echoed through my ears as it pierced through the house's wall and through the trees...I wish Tatkret luck with his life and journey...
I follow Spec into his room and I walk to my sleeping bag. Spec must've been pretty worn out, he got into his bed and fell asleep almost immediatly. I sit down on my sleeping bag and look at the window as the moonlight shines through it...It's still hibernation season...Everyone I know must be sleeping in their caves...Niki...Kamali...Kirchy...Koda...Truttle...Urctos...Kenai...
I take off my shirt and fold it like a pillow and put it under my head as I lay down and close my eyes. Tomorrow is another day...Time to...sleep...
=DREAM=
I find myself back in my own forest...as a bear cub...my original form...I find some slash marks on a few trees, leading me someplace...I follow them and find myself standing in front of...Niki's den?!
I look inside the cave and I see them! Niki and Kamali! They're still hibernating! I smirk, it would be quite a surprise for them to see me when they wake up, their first sight of when they wake up will be me...And I can't wait for them to wake up...Things will finally be back to normal...Yeah...
=END OF DREAM=
I open my eyes to a new day...Now I'm really excited to go back home...
============
It's been a few weeks since that accident and I have been transformed into an anthro. Spec has been teaching me pretty basic things about being an anthro, how they live, how to act like one, pretty much basic stuff.
Though what really gets my attention is Spec and Space's training, I never get tired of them training and fighting each other. I watch them with entusiasm, memorizing and remembering their attacks and skills. Fast punches, uppercuts, slashes, kicks, backflips and frontflips, everything they do inspires me every day to try it out...
============
After a few days of watching those two train, I decided to try it out...
I open my eyes to another new dawn, this time I wake up before Spec. I quietly head out of Spec's room and out of the house, nobody is up yet, so I don't have to worry about anybody distracting, let alone seeing me since I never even tried this before. A little far from the house, I stand in a clearing where there's no rocks to fall on or trees to run into. Alright, let's see...Spec and Space have a lot of moves, and most of them look hard...but with practice I can do them!
I stand in a fighting stance I saw Space use in one of his trainings. I throw a punch, then another one, duck and do an uppercut punch, my feet rising from the ground a little. I land back on the ground and throw a kick, then another kick with my right leg which involves turning my body around by 180 degrees.
I remember a move Space did which involved running to a rock and kicking himself off to make a backflip in the air. I look at a tree and run to it, jump and place my foot on the tree trunk and push myself off, flipping through the air, but when I land on my feet I lose my footing and I fall back. Try again Ken'ichi...
I get up and warm up more before I try it again, imitating their punches and kicks, uppercuts and jabs, every move I can remember. I try making a few backflips and frontflips, but I fail at doing them. I either fall on my back or on my stomach, but I'm not giving up! I get up and try them again, but it's harder than it looks. I almost had a backflip done, but I los my footing on my landing and fall back again.
I put the backflips and frontflips for later and continue to train with punches, kicks and jabs for now...Maybe I could train with Spec and Space now that I am an anthro...

Weeks passed. Snow is becoming smaller in qaunity around the area. It's been a while since I've gotten Ken'ichi to learn all the basics, and he seems to know a lot more now. He's even watched me and Space train every day we have. Oh, boy, have I yearned to ask Keni if he'd ever feel up to learning some training methods, but...well, I've been somehow afraid to, afraid of his answer. So I've kept the idea isolated for now... But boy was I wrong when I found out what was going on outside.. I look through the piercing light from the windows, and see it has become morning once again. Another new day.. I look around after getting out of bed...But I see no Ken'ichi...Strange, he hardly gets up before me at this time... Ah well.. I get up tiredly to go to the bathroom to wash up... I get in the bathroom, but I hear snoring from Space's room...How annoying he is this early, I haven't known anyone to snore that loudly, but we've never told him about it, for fear of what he might do... I walk into the bathroom, and look at myself in the mirror... Face looks groggy... I shouldn't have gone outside the other day during the middle of the night and fallen straight into that mudhole...Figures I hadn't cleaned it all up before heading for bed after Ken'ichi... Ah well... I wash my face, cleaning the fur behind my ears and rubbing my cheeks with the cold water... After cleaning up, I hear something... Like a voice... 'ha's' and 'Yeah!'s are heard from the bathroom window... I wonder whats going on...? I walk out of the bathroom, downstairs, and see the door open...? I walk out and look to the side of the house... Ken'ichi? What... I see him doing some kind of dance...Wait, that's not a dance...He's flipping around and punching and kicking...? Wait, he can't be...Or can he? I watch him flip up and then successfully land from a foward flip. I take this chance to intterrupt. "Ken'ichi??" I walk up to him. He looks startled and falls over. "wah!" He looses his footting and falls on his back, for he wasn't completely balenced on his feet... "what...what are you doing out here this early?" "Oh um...I...Uh..." He stammered a bit... Was he trying to train like me and Space...? I waited for his response...

"Ha!" I throw another punch, crouch and launch myself into the air, giving off an uppercut punch. When I land I crouch again and throw a sweep kick, jump into the air and throw a flying kick. I land firm and jab a few times, throw a reverse punch and end my 'combo' with a roundhouse kick.
I kneel down to catch my breath, "Yeah! At this rate I'll be as good as Spec!"
I get up and run to a tree and place my foot on it, pushing myself off of it and make a backflip in the air, I crouch as I land and make another sweep kick as if I'm fighting someone.
"Oh yeah! Now I'm getting somewhere!" I say with delight and amuzement, surely I'm doing as good as Spec and Space do.
I try to make a backflip, I fall down a few times but I managed to do it good. I smirk and try for a frontflip...Yeah! Just when I was about to regain my balance after the succesful frontflip...
"Ken'ichi??" Spec's voice rings in my ears.
I flinch and loose my balance. "wah!"
I fall unto the ground on my back...Busted...
"what...what are you doing out here this early?" Spec asks me as he comes close.
"Oh um...I...Uh..." I stammer...What would Spec say if he finds out I'm trying to learn how to fight as them? Would he let me?
"Well...I was fooling around, that's all!" I laugh nervously as I scratch the back of my head...But I stop laughing as Spec looks at me, he seems like if he saw that I was practicing their fighting skills...Busted big tme...
I sigh, "Actually...I was mimicing Space and your fighting skills...You see, I've been fascinated by your training that I wanted to join your training ever since I first saw you training. But since I wasn't an anthro, I knew that wasn't possible..." I pause and then continue, "But, now that I'm an anthro, I have a chance to try it out! To be a part of it. But I've been afraid of telling you since you might've objected to the idea."

"Well...I was fooling around, that's all!" Ken'ichi laughs nervously, while scratching the back of his head... I raise my eyebrow and look at him for a moment.. He stops laughing..
He sighs, "Actually...I was mimicing Space and your fighting skills...You see, I've been fascinated by your training that I wanted to join your training ever since I first saw you training. But since I wasn't an anthro, I knew that wasn't possible..." He pauses and then continues, "But, now that I'm an anthro, I have a chance to try it out! To be a part of it. But I've been afraid of telling you since you might've objected to the idea."
Just as I had thought, though I think for a moment...
"Really... So you wanted to become more by training alone? That's a hard task to take, since it might take years to perfect yourself..." I turn around and walk a few steps, my hands behind my back, thinking... "But...of course, 'I' could always try to help you... I mean, who's to say you'll ever get another chance to find anyone else?"
"So....you think it's alright?" He said, enthused, yet catiously.
"Of course, I was thinking of the same thing anyways, but I felt maybe you weren't willing to do something like that..." I turned around and faced him, his face brightened up.
"Really?! Yes! This'll be great, haha!" He jumps up in excitement. Hehe...
"Well, we should try getting started, but lets get something to eat first, and then we'll begin today. But remember, your not quite ready to ask permission to train with Space quite yet, so why don't we keep this our little secret, eh?" I patted him on the shoulder, and he gave his comment in agreement. We walked inside the house to eat..
________________
Several more weeks have passed. Ken'ichi may have thought he had the potential to strengthen himself stronger now, as an anthro. And most certainly he thought right. Lately I've seen his abilities grow and grow. Though he becomes a bit too cocky on certain days, I fix that with a little match here and there, but not to hurt his pride, just to let him know he has far more path to go... We kept training by the small waterfall area where I showed him where the electric prism was. Space wasn't likely to find us there, for I never told him of it quite yet. Though, I always wondered...if someone...was watching us... But it didn't feel like Space... Maybe it was just me, but in any case, we tried training in different spots, just by suggestion. I still got the feeling, but I ignored it, and we kept training. We almost got caught by Space doing our training, but we came up with a close call... I really don't want him to know about it yet. Ever since we started, I've told him me and Ken'ichi go on walks together and we explore, but he becomes suspicious, and tells us to be back before a certain time... Winter is coming closer to an end, the snow is melting and the days are becoming longer with each passing second. The moon on clear nights shown a bright glow on certain days, but I was reminded somehow of Niki. I wondered how everyone was doing... Kadzait, Nikiski, Sila, all of them... Hibernation would end soon, so that we could return...
I just hoped that they were alright.

"Really... So you wanted to become more by training alone? That's a hard task to take, since it might take years to perfect yourself..." Spec turns around and walks away, "But...of course, 'I' could always try to help you... I mean, who's to say you'll ever get another chance to find anyone else?"
"So....you think it's alright?" I say enthused and catiously, just in case...
"Of course, I was thinking of the same thing anyways, but I felt maybe you weren't willing to do something like that..."
My face brightens up, I couldn't believe it. "Really?! Yes! This'll be great, haha!" I jump up excited on my feet.
"Well, we should try getting started, but lets get something to eat first, and then we'll begin today. But remember, your not quite ready to ask permission to train with Space quite yet, so why don't we keep this our little secret, eh?"
Spec pats me on my shoulder, I couldn't help but smile. "OK, I'm sure we can tell Space after I've gotten almost as strong as him."
=========================
Hm...Weeks and weeks have passed since Spec agreed to train me. Spec and I have trained around that small waterfall he showed me the day after I returned back to life. It's been hard and fun training with Spec, though I have the strength to go on!
During my first training, Spec gave me some kind of light-black paw clothing, called gloves, and my tips of my paw come out. It fits and feels well, so I decided to keep it. When my first day of training ended, Spec gave me something that I wear around my pants called...a belt.
Ever since my second training and beyond, I'd have my black sleeveless shirt tucked in with my belt holding it in so it won't go over my face and such when jumping into the air and such. I also wear my gloves so its cotton around my paw would easen the impact of my punches, I assume my punches are pretty powerful considering the fact that bears are pretty tough when it comes to hitting other animals and hunters with our paws and claws.
We usually end our training seccion with a match between me and him, even though I come close, Spec defeats me in each one. But that won't make me quit! Even though I always lose in our matches, it just fuels me with even more desire to try harder. Nobody said it was going to be easy, and I wasn't even expecting it to be.
We give Space the excuse of Spec and I taking walks together around the forest to teach me some more anthro stuff just to cover up the truth of us going to train without him. We almost got caught one time, but we managed to get away with it, even if barely. But Spec seems distracted by something, we did trained in some different spots, but he still was distracted...I wonder what it is...
Well, weeks of training has passed, and winter seems to be reaching it's end. I can't believe that in just a few more days, I'll be able to go back home to Niki, Kamali, Kirchy, Koda, and the rest of my friends...
Wait a minute! We've been so into my training and such, we haven't even thought of a way of how I can change back to a feral and anthro at will like Spec! Uh-oh...Seems like we got some overdue homework to work at...

The more and more I think about it, the more concerned I become for the safety of the prisms... I mean, it's not like they come before Ken'ichi or any of whom are my friends, it's just...well, I keep getting the feeling that I should keep a close eye on them... I've found myself looking for hours upon hours for a certain prism I may have lost in the house, in the bathroom, or in town somewhere...But somehow, I eventually find them back. It's nothing real big, as long as I get them back... But I feel someone or something...Doesn't want me to have them... It's almost the same feeling I get when thinking I'm being watched while training with Ken'ichi... Well, seemingly, it will provide me with more information when I get all the prisms, then I will know my true destiny. Ever since I collected them all that one faithful day... I don't understand why I was deprived from them, by some unknown source...
FLASHBACK
A red aura surrounds me... I feel it change, it begins forming into reds of shades, then white. then to green, purple, yellow, blue, sky blue... What is this...? I'm in a dark realm... Why have I been taken here? Where am I? What have..I done wrong?.. The aura fades...The prisms shatter apart and then back... What is this...? They form completely back together... A faint whisper enters my ears... What does it...say....? I hear it but I am unable to listen and take part of it's true meaning... I try to look at my body, but I see nothing but my own fur... I've been stripped of not only the clothes on my back but my prisms more importantly, that are right in front of me... One of them... The green one... Shines and brightens up my eyes, and bright white flash blinds me. I awaken in the real world, and see myself laying on the ground. Alone...
FLASHBACK END
I don't understand why that event happened... I can't remember where I was when I had all the prisms. At the time, I hadn't met Diamond yet...But with all my stories for her, telling her what my prisms were once capable of in my possesion, she believed every word, for she was my true friend. She gathered all she could in her reasoning and debated on some of my issues and past events... I only remember back to the point when I told the island ruler, as he was called, back on my island, that I was to search for the prisms, and then obtain the power of Reversal. When I gained the power, maybe...it reversed my path and made me start over... I don't understand all of it... But it will be revieled to me, as Space has said when I talked to him about it, once meeting him and finding that me and Diamond could trust him. After a long time, I began my trek to the mountains, where the green prism's alter had been held, to find the power of Unlock, which meant to me, that I could could unlock my prism's powers, for I had no way of using it other than to marvel in beauty... That's why I took some training from Space...And I continue to now...
____________
Ken'ichi walks about my room... He's basically become my room mate, since we have no other rooms in this house. He ponders back and forth, as I sit back and reflect on past events..
"It's been nearly 4 or more months since I found you, Ken'ichi, and since you turned into an anthro... you've grown strong, and your physical aspects have improved greatly, along with your mental bits here and there that I've reminded you to take note of just as much as you like physical training..." I lifted my body from the bed, and looked to Ken'ichi. I put my hand on his shoulder. "Now I think it is time that we begin our return journey to your brother Nikiski, before he and the others awakes from hibernation.. I believe they deeply miss you, even in their slumber." I let go of his shoulder, and point to the calander, as I had explained to Ken'ichi what it was, and that began the process of learning him how to read somewhat... Boy was that fun. NOT.... hehe.. I pointed to the particular date that was today. "I'm sure your very eager to once again see your friends. That is why I had marked the date for today, March 16..." The calender was specially designed to have small sticky things used for markings, and dates, while the above image on the calender had photographs of different animals, in which I got from a far away place with Space... This month's image provided the Bear... A brown bear stood upon a rocky cliff, staring out into the sky... Ken'ichi studied for a moment... And then gave his comment... I walked to the door.
"You have everything, correct?" I held the pack of essentials like a map-since I was tired of aimless travel-, a compass, and a few other things like food and water. I held the pack on my back... More commonly called...a backpack. I had wrapped my prisms comfortabley under my neck, as a full necklace, somewhat. Ken'ichi hadn't any special equipment excpept for his own clothes, gloves, and belt... Unless he had something else...I've seen him store a small compile of miscellanious things, but not much more than things like a little skipping rock he thought was neat (since he could now pick things up and keep them...he's becoming a pack rat, just as worse as me!). I looked to the small little pile by his sleeping bag.. I awaited his response...

Spec has been pretty distracted lately, something is bothering him very much that would make him glance toward his prisms frequently...
Right now, he's sitting on his bed in deep thought as I ponder back and forth...I'm troubled by stuff of my own, we still haven't figured out of a way for me to turn back to my original form, a feral...If Niki sees me as an anthro, he'll have a heart attack.
Spec breaks the silence. "It's been nearly 4 or more months since I found you, Ken'ichi, and since you turned into an anthro... you've grown strong, and your physical aspects have improved greatly, along with your mental bits here and there that I've reminded you to take note of just as much as you like physical training..." I feel Spec's hand rest on my shoulder as he continues. "Now I think it is time that we begin our return journey to your brother Nikiski, before he and the others awakes from hibernation.. I believe they deeply miss you, even in their slumber."
I bow my head as Spec lets go of my shoulder...Niki...I sure hope my revival cheers him up, he was pretty broken down after...that accident...
I raise my head and follow Spec as he points to a date on the calendar. "I'm sure your very eager to once again see your friends. That is why I had marked the date for today, March 16..."
I noticed a picture of a brown bear on a rocky cliff, staring into the sky...I stare at it... "Heh...That picture reminds me of Niki...Hm..." Niki...I can't wait to see you again...
"You have everything, correct?" Spec asks me, breaking me out of my thoughts.
I look at my pile on my sleeping bag and I kneel down to it. "Almost, I forgot something." I pull out from the pile the crystal necklace of mine, the one with the carving of a small bear and big bear inside. I placed it around my neck, placed my pile of stuff into the backpack Spec gave me and place it on my back. "OK, I'm ready!"
=====================
After saying my goodbyes to Diamond and Space, Spec and I are off toward home...To tell you the truth, I can't wait to be home, I'm so excited I can't keep this smile off my face....Oh wait, I forgot about one little problem... "Uh...Spec...We got one little problem..."
"What?" Spec asks.
I tell him about the problem. "Well...Niki is gunna have a fit when he finds I'm wearing jeans and a sleeveless shirt, and am just a small bit less taller than you!"
I look at Spec and wait for this answer...

He looks to his pile of belongings on his sleeping bag, and kneels down to it.
"Almost, I forgot something." He says, rummaging through the pile. He pulls out the crystal necklace, that supposevely brought him back, as he had told be once before. I watched him as he put it around his neck, put his stuff into the backpack I gave him, and he raps it around his back.
"OK, I'm ready!"
-------------------------------
After Diamond and Space prepared us by saying their goodbyes, and such, we begin our journey back north. I pull the map I had put away out, and looked at it. If I am correct...It should only take like less than week, if we keep our pace moving throughout the whole time, except for stops to eat, and sleep... My concentration is interrupted by Ken'ichi's voice, as I look up from the map to see Keni stopped in front of me, with a worried look on his face.
"Ken'ichi, what's wrong?" I asked him, pulling the map down to my waist.
"Uh...Spec...We got one little problem..." He says to me.
"What?" I ask him. What, probl-...
"Well...Niki is gunna have a fit when he finds I'm wearing jeans and a sleeveless shirt, and am just a small bit less taller than you!"
A blatant and emotionless stare comes across my face... Oh crap... I completely forgot about that...problem... I think for a moment, but my mind has been set all morning on our journey back to the forest up north, not on this predicament! How come we didn't take care of this earlier?! Agg... I blink hard when Ken'ichi breaks me out of my blank stare, my thoughts.
"Spec! We have to do something!" Ken'ichi gets a bit nervous. "I don't know what Niki will do to me if he looks at me!"
"Ok, ok, listen up, Ken'ichi. We're gunna make this short and easy plan, we are going to meet with Niki FIRST before anything, so he knows your alive again. I don't know what he will think of the situation, but it's better that he knows sooner. After that, we'll explain this to him. There's a power called Reversal, in which allows myself to go back and forth between my forms, wolf, fox, and bear, and any other forms I will accuire. You, on the other hand, did not accuire these forms, for you did not quite get the power of Reversal from the red comet prism. You and me have to go to the volcano, and you will be relized of the power within you, when you enter the hot cave of where the prism had laid before. If you spend a moment of meditating near the alter, and begin thinking thoughts of reversing back to your original state, you may perhaps become feral again, but you will still be able to go back and forth between them. Did you get all that, or perhaps you want a-..."
I see Ken'ichi nearly falling asleep...
"...recap...? KENI! This is serious!" I snap my nails on my on my hands loudly, trying to make him pay attention.
"HUH!? Uh...I'm sorry, Spectrum... I didn't mean to, I just didn't get enough sleep last night, pondering on our leave today..."
"Oyy...listen, it'll all be alright, I'll recap when we get there, alright?"
"Sure." He responds... We begin walking toward our destination.
OOC: ***Most likely, after Ken'ichi posts next, we will start our posts back in the LWK rp, ok? If not, I will notify OOC! Thanks.

Spec just stares at me with a blatant and emotionless...Then silence ensues all around us as Spec falls into one of his deep thoughts again...But I'm getting pretty worried about this...What would Niki do if he sees me like this?
"Spec! We have to do something!" I say with a nervous tone. "I don't know what Niki will do to me if he looks at me!"
"Ok, ok, listen up, Ken'ichi. We're gunna make this short and easy plan, we are going to meet with Niki FIRST before anything, so he knows your alive again.

My eyes begin to feel heavy and I start to lose my hearing, the rest of Spec's explanation becomes almost unhearable, like a bunch of babble and 'blah's. My eyes close, but I try to stay awake...Not working...
"............KENI! This is serious!"
A snap of Spec's nails and I wake up. "HUH!? Uh...I'm sorry, Spectrum... I didn't mean to, I just didn't get enough sleep last night, pondering on our leave today..."
"Oyy...listen, it'll all be alright, I'll recap when we get there, alright?"
"Sure." I respond and we continue our way. Because of my lack of sleep last night, I almost snoozed off in front of Spec and I lost quite a chunk of information on how to change back...Hm...I hope whatever Spec has planned works...
I can't wait to see Niki and Kamali again...
