Common Room

"Ninja parents, a good concept for a Hollywood movie." Kira said jokingly, stroking her imaginary beard, before cracking up into her trademark wolfy grin again.

Her attention was quickly snatched away however by a scent her wolfy nose was incredibly sensitive to. The smell of burning human flesh. Kira's eyes flashed to the shiny black they take on when she is wolf form, but returned to normal so quickly a normal human would have trouble noticing the change had ever happened at all. Mg however, being rather unnormal, was sure have noticed it, and realized what it meant. Indeed most Titans did, or had at least been told what it meant for their own safety. It was a well known fact that Kira had... issues. Due to the nature of her powers and their origins her mind was not solely occupied by her human consciousness. Inside there existed another, the source of her powers, an animal of primeval power. It felt only in extremes, rage, love, sadness, joy, influencing Kira's emotions and explaining why she was such a passionate individual. However the wolf was a natural predator, and when it smelt the scent of freshly split blood, a kind of blood lust would overtake it, lending it multitudes of power, often leading to it overpowering Kira's consciousness so it could feast all it wished on the flesh that drove it into such frenzy. Over the years Kira had learned to keep the wolf inside her in check, but occasionally it would get the best of her. When that happened it was best to run, fast. She had a habit of killing every living thing that crossed her path.

This is why most Titans have learned to be somewhat cautious when Kira turns serious. It usually signals an internal battle for control between her and her inner monster. In this case however, considering how diluted and distant the scent was, Kira won easily, and thus quickly turned her attention to the floor to ceiling windows offering a view over the entire city.

A plume of smoke was rising from over where Kira remembered Grim's restaurant to be. Anger and a pang of fear that Grim may of been inside for some reason, despite the fact that she hadn't heard from him in months, ever since 'his duty' made him leave her, made Kira's lips draw back slightly as she turned to explain to Mg.

"Fire over near Grim's old restaurant. At least 3 people were inside." Kira growled, her hands flexing in anger that her former lovers prized restaurant was no more, and the fact that the flesh she was hungering for was most likely that of the waiting staff she had shared many a conversation with.

Hopefully it had just been an accident, there hadn't been a serious villain in Jump for months. And if Mg was going to be staying for awhile, Kira really didn't feel like having another criminal mastermind trying to kill her friends again.

"We should probably go check it out."

((yay, made up for shortness Sorry it's so long for you Mg, it's just so newbies can get up to speed with the workings of Kira's character. ))

Mg smiled, thinking about it. "It could be an awesome movie and it would of been all thanks to their long lost and then found daughter." She giggled thinking about it. It was certainly a story to tell them later, whenever she got back home from fighting some crime on what she thought would be on her own as usual. But having an old team member was definitely better than having no one at all.

When Kira went silent, Mg did as well, watching her as she sniffed the air, her wolf like nose able to smell anything better than any animal she could transform into, unless it was a wolf. She saw the flash of black in her eyes for that split second and stayed still, not making a sound as Kira tried to control herself once more.

Mg looked over at the windows, seeing a cloud of black smoke coming from what she knew was Grim's restaurant. There was instantly worry that filled her mind about Grim because he had been another team member over here once. If there was time, memories would of came back to her, but Kira had turned to her and she had saw through the corner of her eye. Switching her view back to Kira, she listened to what she had to say.

Mg nodded her head, thinking that checking out the restaurant was a very good idea. With everything that had happened since the titans went their separate ways, Mg was excited to be checking out a burning building with an old team member. "You run, I'll fly."

Kira nodded and glanced at the window. It's a shame they weren't still broken, it would save a good several seconds of running time if she could just jump out through them. But since she had been the one to break them so many times, she'd wait until someone else broke it first this time.

Mg could take care of herself so Kira didn't spare her another glance, instead bolting for the door. As she ran she let the transformation begin, strengthening her muscles, lengthening her stride, giving her the beginnings of claws and fangs. But that's when she stopped the morphing process. The tower's stair case was not big enough for her wolf form to run through.

A couple of moments later Kira bolted out the from door, she didn't miss a beat. Within a second she had gone from human to a huge hulk of a wolf. 2 bounds on solid ground and then she hit the water. Kira had done this so many times since becoming a Titan her muscles reacted all on their own, tensing, aligning, then releasing, catapulting Kira entirely across the bay in one leap.

She landed well and galloped off towards Grim's restaurant. Mg no doubt was probably already there.

Just like old times. Kira thought, the dark presence in her mind growling in assent, pacing along the borders between their consciousnesses, pressing to get out and feast on the source of the delicious scent on the air.
