[Fiction] Awakening


Silvertalon

Recommended Posts

It has been about two weeks if not slightly longer since Silvertalon was brought into Ptesan-wi's care. The first few days was touch and go, as her body was torn with in barely holding on by a string or two. Although with Ptesan's aid those wound recovered far faster then Silvertalons own body could regenerate most likely saving her life. After the first week the feral nova has not shown signs of waking up, nor could Ptesan-Wi venture past the locked doors with in Silvertalons mind. As the body steadily healed a few minor changes began to surface. The once arctic white fur coloring slowly changed daily, into a soft platinum color. Her scales also seamed to change as well in color, going from the soft white to a silvery white blend that seamed to melt perfectly into the platinum colored fur. The long talons she possessed on her fingers and toe claws seamed to have taken on a minor change becoming smaller and shorter, but not loosing their edge one bit. All these changes have taken place well with in two weeks and yet it makes one wounder how much she is truly changed as her outward appearance over all is much different then those know her.

A strange sense trickles from with in the room Silvertalon is in. The strength of that feeling seams to grow slowly as if someone or something has begun to awaken. The mental impulses seam to grow at a slow rate, as the walls themselves with in Silvertalons mind begins to melt away. A strong presence so alien and yet so familiar seams to flow forth from the room she is in. The feral nova's body starts to show signs for the first time in weeks movement. As her eyes flutter, her limbs seam to move slightly flexing with slight ragged breaths. The furs covering slowly fall off as her mind starts to send impulses though her body learning quickly what it needs to know. A soft growl wells with in her chest as her mind begins taking control once again of her body. Its only a matter of time before she is aware and able to sense what is around her let alone possibly move.

Ptesan-Wi was nearly to the cave, leading a slain deer carried by her mind, when the first tell-tale signs of mental activity came out from the rustic home. “Oh my spirits...” she said in a whisper, the carcass dropping with a thud to the ground in front of her as she took off at a sprint for the door.

By the time she was inside the cave, mewlings and soft growls were coming from the “guest room” where Silvertalon had lay comatose for the past two weeks. She’s big, strong, deadly and there’s no telling what she’ll do when she wakes up, Ptesan-Wi reminded herself as she carefully entered the small side chamber where the silvery-white form of the strange feral nova rested.

Silvertalons eyes slowly start to flutter open as the first real deep drawn breath of air is pulled in. The growling depends as her body seams to fidget having yet gained control over her own bodies motor functions just yet. She feels helpless for the moment, unable to move or even form words just yet. As her body feels so numb, so alien to her for the moment. Her eyes focus and unfocus adjusting to the lighting of the room, its dark but something darker moves in the room as her eyes focus once again to follow.

A outline of a figure seams to be standing near by, as the shadows keep her from seeing any detail other then the darker space. She can hear the soft breathing of someone else in the room, her nose twitches trying to catch the scents in the room but for the moment her mind is not fully comprehending all her senses. A deep growl slowly wells up with in her chest, seemingly staring directly at the darker shadow not sure to perceive it as a friend of foe. Her eyes seam to shift slightly changing from what one would call normal looking eyes to that of a draconian look. Yet she lays in bed glaring in that direction trying to force her senses to recover faster, as her random bodily movements seam to quickly come under control, soon she will be able to move very soon.

Well, she's definitely coming around, but her senses are still a bit confused, Ptesan-Wi thought to herself. Time to try to nip problems in the bud.

With a thought, the Lakota girl reached out and brushed across the mind of the waking beast. *Silvertalon, you're safe. You're in Wakinyan's cave. I'm Ptesan-Wi. Can you hear me?*

Silvertalon's eyes shift yet once again back to normal. Slowly she seams to ease and relax realizing what was said to her is true. The familiar scents and noises of the cave ease and calm her allowing her to relax and allow her mind to grasp control over each muscle. A few moments pass, her breathing comes slowly the growling turns into a soft mirrr of sorts. As the furs covering her form beings to slide away with a shaky paw. Her body starts to move, slowly and awkwardly at first into a sitting position. Her head hangs just a bit low summing the strength to raise her head and look directly at the shadow in the room. The shadows darkness is swept to the side now clearly seeing Ptesan-Wi.

"........Yes... I... Can...." her voice seams a bit horse not used to speaking for some time.
