*Gawain entered the hotel, remembering the pattern of checking in from the last time.*
"I'll get the room, you two stay here."
*He made his way to the front desk, speaking to the man behind the counter for a moment. Then the man gave him a key and Gawain bowed his head in thanks.*

*Helen smiled and stayed with Kiba, wondering what Gawain had planned for them. He seemed so galant and well-mannered. And he was also very handsome.*

Tsume gave a disgruntled sigh as he found yet another trail of Kiba's scent. How many places has he managed to wander into? he wondered. First that huge building, then the place with the alcohol, and now here? No way would Kiba try to stake a human city as territory--not only did he hate most of them, cities were useless on wolf terms except for easy-to-find (if bad-tasting) food and hiding from enemies. He was probably lost.
One thing that confused him was the unfamiliar human's scent who'd joined up with Kiba near the forest. He stopped near a hotel, where both trails were much stronger--barely a few minutes old--and pushed the door open to get inside.
And there he was.
"Kiba."

"Tsume? You're alive!" He'd smelled Tsume coming, obviously, but the point was that one of his pack was alive. He wasn't going to abandon all other ties in favor of one pack member--he promised Helen he'd protect her, after all, and Le Rouge was the closest thing to a normal territory this place had. Still, he'd spent the whole time looking for anyone in addition to keeping an eye on Helen.
"Have you seen the others yet?" He asked.

*Gawain returned to the group silently, key in hand. He seemed curious about the new man, but did not press into their obvious reunion.*

*Helen had watched the conversation in silence. She turned to Gawain with a smile when he arrived. She didn't speak, didn't want to disturb the conversation. But her face expression and body language clearly showed she had no idea who the new man was.*

*Gawain bowed his head slightly to the lady when she made eye contact. His smile was constant as his eyes wandered briefly over her pleasing form.*

*Helen blushed when she noticed his eyes wander over her form. She shyly allowed her eyes to wander over his strong body. She liked the way he looked, his blond hair and his smile. She couldn't help but smiling back.*

"Figures you'd take on everything at once," Tsume told him with a scornful smile, but at least he knew why Kiba had been wandering around so much.
When he remembered to answer Kiba's question, though, he sobered. "I thought Toboe and Hige were with you. You haven't seen them yet?"
Of course he was lying--he could smell neither of their missing pack members at all, and they definitely hadn't met up with Kiba.
- Kiba "No. I was looking for you all," he answered. "You haven't seen Cheza yet, have you?"
When the world is reborn and Paradise opens, we will meet again. This one will be waiting for you.
This might not be Paradise--even the normal humans didn't make sense, to say nothing of the freaks of nature he'd met earlier--but it was a lot better than a frozen wasteland. He turned to Helen and introduced the two of them. "Helen, this is Tsume."

Helen turned to Tsume and bowed with her wrists crossed in front of her chest, her palms resting against her chest. This was a humble way for the ancient Greeks to greet someone, and showed respect.
"KaleeSPERa," she said in Greek."Good evening. I am Helen of Troy. It is a pleasure to make your aquaintance."
She placed a tiny and slightly on Gawain's arm.
"And this is Gawain, he is a friend of mine."
She did not mention that she just had met Gawain. If this new man knew Kiba, he had to be a wolf too, didn't he? And she didn't want Gawain to be attacked by wolves. After all, he was much nicer than Menelaus.

A disinterested "Hello," was all Tsume said to both of them. "Looks like you've gotten over not liking hu--people for a while," he asked Kiba.
"Her mate's trying to find her," Kiba answered. "She asked me to protect her from him and whoever he hires to help."
"They won't be a problem for you," Tsume scoffed. "If you need help, though, I've got nothing to do."
Kiba turned to Helen for a moment. "Are you going with him now?"

Helen turned to Gawain, not sure of what to say.
"Well, that depends on what the gentleman here wants."
She said to Kiba.
"It will have to be up to him."

"If the two of you would like to catch up, I will happily escort the lady up to the room. I will see no harm falls to her until you return." *Gawain offered gallantly.*

*Helen blushed, and looked down, smiling shyly.*
"That is very galant of you, Mylord. I wouldn't want to keep Kiba from catching up with his friend."
*She looked over at Kiba.*
"I will be safe with Gawain, Kiba. He seems like a gentleman."
