Cezar let go of her. Her hand was in a bad shape. He held onto her hand at the wrist to stop the shaking.
"Dont think about it...", he said using his other hand to turn her face up away from her hand. "Its going to be fine very soon..."

She nodded, taking deep breaths as she looked at him, trying to calm down.
After a bit she finally managed to calm down, "ok..." she sighed, "ok, I think I'm ok now... we need to get out of here." she nodded.

He nodded to her in response. "Ok, follow me and... smile as we go out ok?", he told her. He started to go, then something struck him. He went back to where the cross had been dropped and used a cloth to pick it up. Wrapping around several layers and tying a knot, he made sure the silver wouldn't be exposed by accident. He then put it securely in his pocket.
"Ok, lets get out of this town before something else comes up...."
He walked out casually, hoping nobody would notice.

She nodded and walked out behind him, not smiling really, but she didn't look like she was in pain.
"why'd you pick up the cross again?" her mind wasn't working and she couldn't figure it out.

He didn't know how to put it. Se he thought for a while before answering. "In my experience I have realized that not all of 'our' kind are so... accommodating. Actually you are the first I have met who didn't attack me as soon as I met them", he said in a whisper, looking back and smiling a bit.
"I just thought it would be wise to carry it in case I ever needed to use it against one of our own. I know its a bit too paranoid of me, but thats the way I have survived so far." They were very close to the town limits now.

She nodded, "that makes sense I guess... but why were you attacked by others? I've never really gone around others of our kind much so it's never happened to me."

"I guess...", he thought for a moment,"... I don't really know. Maybe I am always unlucky enough to catch them in a bad mood. Or it could be they see me as weak for not using my...", he looked around to check that nobody was in earshot, "...lycan form."

"you don't use your lycan form?" she was a little shocked, "Why not?"

He was ashamed to admit it but he was in it now. They were well outside the town now, though he could still some of the buildings.
He stopped walking, but didnt turn around. "I... I cant control it. I don't know how to control it. I have tried...many times, but it has always ended it disaster."

He was getting irritated. He didn't like speaking about his past. But she was asking question he thought required answers. And besides she had probably stopped thinking about the pain now that they were discussing this. He started walking again, hoping to get out of sight of the town as soon as possible.
He asked her, "Tell me something, when you were a child, who taught you how to control it?" He already knew the answer but he didn't know any other way to explain it.

"my family of course." she said simply, following after him.

"Yes, you see, I was separated from my family in my early childhood. I never had the opportunity to learn as you did. Whatever I have learnt about myself is from what I have observed about others and what I feel..."

She stopped in her tracks, not sure what to say about that.
"so... so what do you actually know?"

"I know how to stay in control in my wolf form, as you would have already realized. After so many years of running and fighting, I know the limitations of this and the wolf form. I know what silver can do to me and...", he stopped himself from mentioning the cross. It would probably remind her of her hand again.
"So you see, why I am afraid to use it. There is nothing I have learnt from others about the lycan form that can help me control it."
