Doll lay low to the ground, her ears back as she stalked her prey, a petit deer that wandered around infront of her, being picky of its grazing. The air was still, and Doll felt like if she moved all would be lost, but the want to feed was aching in the pit of her stomach, making Doll grow restless.

Malkon wanders through the shadows of the rocks, silently brushing aside the grass blades that touched his glossy black fur. As a clearing slid into view, his grey-blue eyes focused on a red wolf he saw watching a deer. Seeing how she remained completely still, he wondered why, until he felt the wind. Or lack of wind at least. He seems to remember something about wind and prey... Whatever it was, he felt he should hide a while longer before trying to help her.

Doll's patience started to crumble as she watched the little deer. It still didn't notice her, somehow, even though her coat did not blend in with anything. Then the deer decided to turn around, and this was too much for Doll to handle waiting for. Doll lunged forward, kicking up dust, causing the deer to look back, and, seeing Doll, suddenly take off, rushing away from its imminent demise.

Malkon sees the little black wolf lunge at the deer, and he also sees her miss. He begins plotting a shadowy course to the other side of the clearing, and uses his Seisoku abilities to span the distance in an instant. Now on the other side of the deer, he simply strikes his paw out at the base of it's skull, knocking it unconscious. As it dropped limply to the ground, Malkon looks back to the she-wolf.

Doll slowed down and froze, staring at the new wolf-demon before her, slightly taken by surprise at the suddenness of it all. She wasn't sure what to do, or what to say, as she watched the other, her ears alert, and her eyes searching for any sign of threat or attack.

With a chuckle at the wolf's hesitance, Malkon says, "You don't need to be scared of me. I'm already dead... I don't have a problem with you. Do you need any help?" Gesturing to the unconscious deer, he queries, "I'm guessing you were trying to catch this for food, so I subdued it. If you weren't... don't worry. It'll be fine in a few minutes." He reaches up and casually scratches behind his ear. Looking back down at her, he thinks, Now, to judge her character... Good or bad? Will she kill to eat, or kill for fun?

Doll edged forward to the deer, reaching down and biting its throat, killing it quietly. She sighed, looking a bit regretful at the small thing, before bowing her head and taking a small bite of its shoulder meat, quivering slightly from the hunger that has been engulfing her for weeks. She looked up at Malkon, her eyes flickering, "So, I haven't seen you in a long while.." she said, looking slightly hesitant and keeping her eyes on him.

She treats it so kindly, even though she had to wait so long for it... Watching her eat, it makes him think of what it was like to eat when he was alive... As she begins eating part of the deer, she tells him she hasn't seen him in a while... perhaps she really did know him? Could he find his soul? I guess it's worth a try... he thinks. "So you know me, do you? How can you, when I don't even know your name?" With this, he gives her a contemplative, inquisitive look.

Doll stopped eating, looking at him in slight puzzlement, "I know you because we crossed paths many times. Despite how you treated me, I felt oblidged to look after you when you were injured or just having a horrid time. You took it out on me, yes, but I dealt with it." Doll said softly, looking back down at her meal, "At any rate, I don't expect you to remember me, since it's been so terribly long."

Hmm... he thought, looking down and furrowing his wolf-brow in contemplation. "You seem so sure of yourself, but I'm not getting any memories back... I don't remember much of my life, you see. I need to get it back. I mean, why else would I still be here but to have a second chance?" While he watches her continue to eat, he thinks about something she said... it's bugging him him partly because he doesn't remember it happening, partly because he can't imagine himself doing it... Finally, he speaks up, "How was I mean to you, and why? Only one other claims I was cruel, but he also claims he killed me with his own claw... and I don't even know your name!

Doll stared at him for a bit before letting out a sigh, sitting down, "My name is Doll. I take care of those that are lost in the world. When we met you acted sincere to me, but it was obvious that no matter how much attention I gave to you to heal you and help you when you passed through, you didn't care. When I would be helping out others, I would sincerely try to make sure you were as comfortable as possible before tending to others, and it wasn't enough at times. Although you never physically harmed me, you did make me feel like I was nothing, and that in my opinion is far worse than any physical damage." Doll said softly, a slightly cold look entering her eyes.

Surely she has noble intentions... she can't be making this up... can she? She is so serious... With a sigh, he says to her, "Whoever I was then, I am a different wolf now. Hell, I'm not even a wolf. I can't even remember my own puphood... All I remember is that I did something wrong, and I need to make up for it." He pushes at the dirt in front of his paws, then scratches his ear again.

"It's not like my opinion really matters." Doll said, looking regretful again, "Yeah, you were really aggressive towards most people, and you did some bad things, but at the same time I can't hold that against you, especially if you've changed. I'm not one to do that." Doll said softly, huffing slightly, "Aside from that, what could you possibly do to make it up to me?"

Malkon looks around, almost absently, his great horns brushing the grass behind him. "I don't really know," he says, "I wouldn't know what to make up for... I don't have any memories of my life, only how I got this wound." With this he puts his paw to the hardened Jin'teki on his chest. The dull, off-white material stood out amongst his black fur in the bright sunlight. "I hope you don't mind, but I need to get out of this sunlight. It isn't really all that bad, I'm just not so comfortable in it."

"I don't mind." Doll said softly, as she had finished her meal. She trotted with him back towards a more shaded area, letting out a sigh, "In all seriousness the only way I can think of you repaying me or whatever would just to be nice to me, since that's all I've ever done for you." She said softly, looking over at him, "I was worried when you left the last time we met because you were so angry, but I didn't say anything."
