A hour or so passed before Peter started to come to. Emerald eyes opened though almost closed due to light hitting them. Why did everything hurt so much? Oh wait...he coul remember trying to prevent the change...stupid him. Wincing slightly, he slowly strted to sit up. However a pined groan left him as pain shot through his body. Hopefully..nothing bad happened during the night. Glancing to the side, he took notice of Raffe. Them again?

As soon as his sensitive ears picked up the groan, Raffe woke up. He was a light sleeper due to his very sensitive sense of hearing, and at times it saved his life, but there were a lot of drawbacks from it. Cracking an eye open, the shifter let his senses adjust to the bright light before fully opening both eyes. It did hurt his body to be sleeping in such a position, he was still sitting, but his neck hurt. Rolling his head from side to side, Raffe raised his arms and stretched. "Good morning, sir. How do you feel?" he asked, looking down at the man. "I never caught your name, by the way." he added, standing up slowly. His legs were numb from sitting for so long.
The shifter stretched his legs while waiting for the answer. It was morning, late morning from the looks of it. He needed to go home, Akeelah was probably worried sick over his disappearance. Unfortunately for Raffe, his sense of justice and kindness didn't let him leave this man's side. "I can take you to a hospital or I can probably sneak you in to the house I'm staying, I don't know if they will take kindly to me bringing strangers in, though." he said, looking around. Mara's camp should be near here, but he didn't know which way as she would probably have moved... or maybe she stayed where he found her. Shrugging, Raffe didn't want to risk a long trip with an obviously injured man. "What hurts?" he asked, crouching down in front of the werewolf.

"Somewhat okay, just in a good deal of pain...it's alright, Peter Cornwall. Though just call me Peter." Peter replied.
Odd, Peter could recall introducing himself before the moon was up. Oh well, sometimes things went ignored. Who knows what went on during the night after he changed. Had this stranger been hanging around him the whole night? If so, he hoped they weren't injured in anyway.
"No, no hospitals. Nothing feels broken and really, if I went there for every time this happen it be weird." Peter answered. "It's okay, you don't have to take me to your friend's home. I don't wish to impose on them. Well considering my foolishness in trying to keep it in last night, everything hurts a good deal. What happened after I changed though? I never can recall what happens."

"Oh yeah... Peter Cornwall, Sorry... I'm still half asleep." he replied. "The name's Raffe." Raffe stood up and stretched again, his body still felt a little sore. "You were looking for some girl. Kept trying to run away from me." he explained, looking around them. He can't really leave Peter here.
"You're an odd fellow when you change, don't you remember anything?" he asked, looking down at him and tilting his head to the side. Was the werewolf a different person from the human side? That was interesting to Raffe. He hadn't encountered such a supernatural like werewolves before, only a hellhound, a witch, an oracle, shape shifters and whatever Lee was.
Sighing, Raffe reached out his hand to help Peter up. "Well... I can't leave you here, besides, they might come looking for me. My friend gets worried, and our housemates are kind of like the police. Agents or something." he explained, shrugging.

"It's alright." Peter assured.
They followed him all night most likely. Why else would they be tired? Peter most certainly was. Looking for a girl? Who?
"I never can remember what goes on during a full moon when changed. There was one time when I was asleep, I had flashbacks to the previous full moon but it was all jumbled up with other memories." Peter explained.
Accepting Raffe's hand, he was soon up on his feet. Though the pain in his body went through him a bit more. It be a good while for that to go away. Where did he leave his shoes? Somewhere in the forest. His shirt and jacket were probably too destroyed for him to wear.
"Agents?" Peter asked. "Either of em named Guil?"

Raffe's face darkened at the mention of the name Guil, even if it was a different person, the name carried a curse for him, for his family. "No." he muttered darkly, looking away. That cursed name was the name of the cause of every grief he and Akeelah were feeling now, if it wasn't for a certain hellhound, everything would be fine. He would not have been separated with her, she would probably not think so little of herself and they wouldn't be in hiding.
"I can take you to them, you seem to be familiar with the term." he added, looking around, trying to get the image of a smirking hellhound out of his head. Until now, the arrogant image of Guillotine burned brightly in his head. He didn't want to show anger in front of Peter, especially not anger this great.

"No, you don't have to. A friend of mine lives near the forest here, in a small town." Peter replied. "I can go to her place."
For some reason, Peter wasn't fully sure if Raffe didn't know who Guil was. Besides if he went to where Guil was then it would probably end badly. Considering how their last interaction went. Peter was honestly still unsure on how he would talk to Guil if he saw him again, it went so badly due to Guil learning what he was. Did the Hellhound even forgive Peter by this point?

"You sure you'll be fine on your own? I can help you get there, at least. I know every inch of this place by heart." he said, offering to once again help Peter get there, even though he knew he was going to be in big trouble when he got back to the big house.
Raffe wasn't really bothered, though. Maybe if he explained to Akeelah, she would understand and help him defend his case to biscuit. Only biscuit, since he didn't really care what Spoon or the other say. Biscuit seemed to have the final say on whether or not he could stay in that house, anyway.

"I'll be okay, I just need to wait for a few moments to get some of the pain to pass." Peter answered.
He really didn't want to put Raffe through any trouble. Honestly he just wanted to stay in one place so the pain would go away. He had to find his shoes first before trying to find Izzy's house.
"I'm sorry to have put you through so much trouble." Peter added.

Raffe nodded, looking over at Peter before remembering the man took off his shoes before. Shifting into his favored form, a gigantic wolf, Raffe sniffed around the forest before darting away and returning a moment later with a pair of shoes in his mouth, Peter's shoes. He dropped it in front of the man before shifting back, grimacing at the fact that he had to take a man's shoes into his mouth. But he had worst, really.
"It's not trouble, not now, but in the house, probably. My Akee would kill me for making her worry." he said, chuckling lightly at the mention of the female shifter. She was pregnant, so he didn't know how bad she would react to his disappearance, she'd probably go looking for him... or she could be crying in the room, blaming herself. Raffe sighed, a sad look coming to his face.

Peter was hardly prepared to see Raffe change suddenly and take off running. A surprised expression was on his face as he just sighed and leaned against a tree for a bit of support. However the large wolf reappeared with...his shoes? Well he wasn't expecting this.
"Thanks." Peter thanked as he sat down and started to put his shoes on. "Some friends are like that, they care a lot about one another. Course that shows that they are a really great friend and that they care."

Raffe smiled. "Yeah, she's like that. But who wouldn't be? I disappeared for years without a word and suddenly show up out of nowhere a few days ago." he said, getting a faraway look on his face and absently scratching at the burn mark on his bare chest again. "I promised her I wouldn't leave, yet I did, and just sometime ago, I promised her I won't do it again, yet... I'm here, without her knowing." he added, shaking his head and sighing. He was the worst, making her worry so much.
"So where is this little town you talk about?" he asked, looking back at Peter with a curious expression.

Disappeared? Now whatever caused him to do that? Sure he probably had reasons so it was best not to question. With his shoes on, Peter stood up.
"Well, I'm sure if you tell her you couldn't help it she'll forgive you." Peter replied. "It shouldn't be too far away. It's the only town out here for a while about."
With that, Peter started to walk. Course he was going at a simple pace, one that anyone could keep up with.

"Yeah, she's good like that." he said, nodding. As soon as Peter started walking, Raffe decided to walk with him. "Well... I'm already in trouble, might as well see it to the end." he explained, shrugging and keeping himself one step behind the other man. He had probably encountered this town before, but his memory was hazy, no need to tell Peter though.
"Who was the girl you were looking for? Your werewolf said she was a comrade." he asked, looking at the trees around them.

Trouble huh? Oh well, it was just how things went in this world. If he had been in the city when the change took over then he would be very much in trouble. Probably put everyone at a worst risk then desired. Hearing Raffe's question, Peter thought on it for a bit before glancing over his shoulder at Raffe.
"I'm not a hundred percent sure, it could be a coworker of mine but that's something the wolf knows and thus...I can't say for certain if that is it or not." Peter replied.
