@Oh Sehun [I am so sorry! I thought I replied to this already!]

Jiyoung rushed towards her apartment and made all necessary preparations from showering, eating and getting ready. She's still new in the city, as well as her workplace. She finished applying her liptint and get a pair of comfy slip-on sneaks and went straight out from her apartment. She just arrived in the unversity grounds fifteen minutes earlier and went straight to the meeting venue.
"That went well.." she muttered as she gets up from her office. It was already lunch time and she needs her fill. The meeting went well for three hours and she just finished half of the things she needs to be done for the day. She takes her bag and went out from the university.
"Hmmmm, now I need my feel and I need my protein... Where should I go?" She told herself while walking towards the busy street of Atlantis.

@[SH] Kang Jiyoung "I'm not really sure of the time. For me, Atlantis has always been there and the way my parents talk about it, I believe it had been there for ages." Sehun replied, earnestly to the question that Jiyoung placed in front of him. "I am equally delighted to have met you. And I look forward to the next time that we come across." He gave a slight nod as they parted their ways to different destinations. Holding his bag a little more tightly, he gave one final glance at the wolf that he had encountered. Soon enough, she was far from his periphery and he headed towards his apartment.

@Oh Sehun The wolf nods from the caster's answer, "well, that wouldn't be long then since you are in the 4th generation, on your father side I mean." Jiyoung says it without being offensive to her statement. "How many years since Atlantis been established anyway?" She nonchalantly asked. They were able to go out from the forest and into the pathway. Jiyoung is able to see her apartment complex blocks away from where they are.
"That also made me curious, what Atlantis looks like and how is it living here actually. One of the reasons why I moved. The city is like one of the rare places where it is not inhabited by humans or human familiar. Most species can live together unlike most places."
Upon the goodbye greeting of Sehun, Jiyoung instantly check her watch.. There is still time for her to get a quick shower and be ready for the meeting. "Yes, I still have enough time to get ready. Thank you. It was nice meeting you as well Sehun, and hopefully let's not be strangers when we bump into one another." With that, Jiyoung raise her hand to bid farewell as tthey walk to opposite directions. Jiyoung immediately made a sprint to few blocks going to her apartment.

@[SH] Kang Jiyoung Sehun listened to all that Jiyoung said, intently as they kept walking. He realized that they were nearly out of the forest, as he heard the sound of vehicles moving along the road. "I'm not really sure if we go way back as well. I'm the fourth generation of my family to be here. But my mother's side of the family- they have been here longer than my father's. To me, Atlantis still looks the same way it did when I was a kid- apart from some change in infrastructure." They got out o the forest and were now on he road, where Sehun could see quite a few people and cars. "That's good to hear, I'm sure you will be able to figure out soon enough. As a person, who's been living here since birth, I'd say Atlantis is a pretty amazing place to be in.... full of unexpected surprises most of the time." Realizing that his companion had mentioned about a meeting she was getting late for, Sehun decided that it was best they part their ways. "Well, I think I should take your leave now. I hope you are not late for your meeting. And it was a great pleasure meeting you."

@Oh Sehun "I came here because of work. I work on one of the universities in Finland in the field of research, and sometimes got classes on sciences." Jiyoung casually answered as they keep walking. "There were offers given to me, and let just say that the university here really did their job of offering me benefits and stuff, plus I can still work as part time in my previous university. I still want to work on my previous university an can't leave it, so the university here made few arrangement with me." The path was already near the city and they hear buses and cars bustling in the streets, busy people walking in the alleyway. Jiyoung looks at Sehun who answered about him being new or not, "really? You guys then might be one of the first few people in Atlantis then. How did the city changes from generations then?"

By the next question, Jiyoung just shook her head. "I came here alone so my pack is not around. They were hesitant at first but they think this could be a chance for me to go around before I stick to one certain place in the future."

@[SH] Kang Jiyoung "That makes you pretty new here. So where do you work?" One question led up to another and now he was curious as to what made her move from her home in Finland to Atlantis. They took a left turn as they kept moving forward and Sehun began to answer he question that the she wolf placed for him. "My family has lived here in Atlantis, for generations." The caster realized that she had noticed how he was giving a thorough look around. "Not really. I guess it's become a habit of mine to look around." He didn't mention the actual reason to her. "So, you came with your family?"

@Oh Sehun "hmm?" Jiyoung looks at the young-looking caster when she was asked. "I just came around two weeks ago if my memory serves me right. I'm actually from Finland." She answered as they continue walking. "I just got to be here because of a job offering.." It was just a simple question from the caster but can stir up a conversation. "How about you? Are you a native here or new to town?" It was her turn to ask the same question. "And, don't mind me asking but you keep looking from left to right, were you expecting something around this forest?"

@Kang Jiyoung Walking along the small grassy path with his silent companion, Sehun looked around from time to time to see if any other werewolves would show up again. He gave a quick glance at the she wolf beside him as he trudged on the dried leaves of the ground. "So, have you always lived in Atlantis?" He asked a simple question to start up a conversation. He noticed that she was looking at her beeping phone time and again, probably messages about the meeting that she mentioned, he deduced.

@Oh Sehun Jiyoung nods to the path that Sehun, the caster in pointing. "Okay then. I'll go with you." She nods and starts walking with the caster towards the path. Jiyoung did not say anything, and just follow the caster. From time to time, her phone is beeping, probably just another call or text from the over-protective duo called father and brother. She just did not mind it and just continue walking, following the pacing of the man beside him. She just stay silent.

@Kang Jiyoung The caster really had no idea whatsoever about the statement that she had made, but hearing that it was a ladies thing, he decided not to prod about it any further.
"Yes, that is something to be thankful about, cause this plant really is very rare. I would have to start over my search, if you had mistakenly stepped on it." Sehun agreed, giving a small smile to the she wolf. "I hope you have better luck, the next time you hunt." The caster placed the strap of his bag on his shoulder, and got ready to leave, when she asked him about the quickest route outside. "I'm headed the same way, if you'd like to join me. It goes this way on the right." He pointed out to the right path, the one with less undergrowth and shrubs, probably coz it had been stepped on frequently before.

@Oh Sehun She just waves at his statement, "again, you did not bother me. It part of hormones of ladies, and I think you might have an idea on that." Jiyoung muttered and looks back at Sehun. "Yes, sure. Thanks." She answered as she looks at her watch. It ws already almost ten in the morning. She looks back again on Sehun, and gives him a look, but not the intimidating one that she always throw most of the time. "Anyways, I won't be catching any preys today, bit do not worry. I don't blame you. Let's just be thankful I did not step on that plant." She gestured on Sehun's bag.
Again, Jiyoung looks around as if trying to analyze something. "Listen, uhmmm.. Sehun.. Were is the fastest route going out from the forest, then back to the city? I have a meeting in less than 30 minutes."

@Kang Jiyoung "It is a pleasure to meet you, Jiyoung." The male said, with a polite smile, as he shook her hand. "I'm relieved to hear that." Sehun watched her as she glanced around, probably in search of something she meant to find in the first place. His guess was made sure by her next statement and he wondered, perhaps the were wanted to be left alone. He gave a small smile at the joke she made and began to speak again, "Well, I should not further intrude in your meal time, then." The caster looked around the area, hoping he would not have to confront another wolf on his way out, coz who knew if the next one would be as friendly as her.

@Oh Sehun After the full explanation on why the said plant, Jiyoung just nods her head and observes the caster takes the plant from the ground, and securing it to a jar. When he stands up and introduced himself, Jiyoung takes out her right hand to acknowledge the gesture that the caster has made. "Hello Sehun, I'm Jiyoung." She gaves her a smile while they shakes hands and the do some mini-stretches.
"Don't worry, you did nothing wrong and that it does not disturb me." She answers as she tries to listen for other sounds that is coming for in the forest to look for another prey. "I just need to have my fill ever if it is just a bit, some PMS-ing situation from the werewolf." She just let it out as some humor.

@Kang Jiyoung Obviously the caster knew that it was not a regular wolf- it was too huge to be just that. The huge wolf, with its snowy white fur that seemed to shine as light sun rays fell on it through the small crevices of the tree canopy, surely had to be a shifter. Even though his mind knew that fairly well, his eyes still couldn't help but widen when the were got behind a tree and returned back in its human form. Only a few seconds ago, he was face to face with a wolf, and now in its place, stood a woman probably in her early twenties. The she wolf understood that he was no threat to her, which made him give out a sigh of relief. "I am a caster. I derive my magic from the forest itself." He explained, "I am preparing a spell in form of a potion to help heal dying plants. And the last ingredient is only found in these parts of the forest." Sehun paused for a while, cautiously, before starting again. "I'm sorry to have disturbed you. That was not my intention."
As the woman pointed out the fact about the flower, his attention fell back to the flower petals on he mossy ground a little beside her. "Yeah, I probably should." He walked towards it and bent down in a kneeling position. Then, opening the zipper of the small bag he had brought with himself, he took out a jar to and put the flower petals inside it. After he was done with that, he stood back up again, and looked at the woman, now right in front of him. "I am Sehun, by the way."

@Oh Sehun Jiyoung tilts her head as she sees clearly who was in front of her, The latter stops walking upon seeing her as a wolf, just don't know if it was registered to this human that she's werewolf, rather than just a regular wolf. She was a very big one, but still midget to the her family.. With white-colored fur that is as white as snow, she stops her guarding position when she smells that this particular human did not smell danger, but instead, it was a bit of fear. Clearly, he never seen one of her kind as his eyes would give it away. Still, his eyes were locked into the particular plot at her back.

The human was talking and she can't response back because she shifted. She can't communicate with him through mind since they don't belong from the same pack. She needs to shift again in her human form.. There's a big tree two steps away from her left. She went there, shifted, and dressed herself. She shows up again with clothes on, and introduces herself. "I'm sorry, I need to shift so we can understand each other. I smell that you are not purely human and not a threat..." she started and look at the plant that the guy is been eyeing for so long and move back a little to give way.. "You should stop standing and get on moving if you want this plant."

@Kang Jiyoung Walking a few steps towards the way where he thought he heard a sound, Sehun caught sight of a wolf. This was his first time to have had such an experience and it caught him by surprise as well as awe in itself. The caster noticed the wolf slowly drawing closer to him, and that brought a shred of fear in his heart. Not knowing what would be the reaction of the were in front of him, because he had afterall come in their territory. "Hello..." was all he could utter as he brought himself in a cautious stance. Then he decided to try again, to show that he meant no harm and he was just minding his own business. "I was just looking around for something valuable. I'm sorry if I disturbed you or distracted you in any way."
That is when he noticed something else near the wolf- the flower petals that he had been looking for. Of all the places where he could have found them, it had to be right there. "There is a flower, that only blooms for a night. I'm here for it. It can help me revive the plants that are dying. That is all I came for." He said, hoping this piece of information would make it clear that he was there for the right intentions. And in no way, meant to interfere in the wolf's business.

@Oh Sehun There was nothing much to do as it was the weekend. Jiyoung had finally settle down into the new city, liking her new job and looking around. A new life without her parents, especially her Alpha of a father and brother who are very protective around her. She feels full freedom.. That was again just after her alarm clock rings, her phone ring after indicating there is a call from her father. Just like any other days, she get reminders especially when she needs to feed herself. She needs to hunt. And so, with a pair of leggings and and shirt covering her sports bra, she was off for a run in the forest.
She was busy looking for food.. That is when she decided to shift in the deeper part of the forest and just immediately spotted a rabbit. 'Better than nothing', she muttered and run for it. She was too close until she noticed someone was nearby. It was not just an ordinary human. She knows that smell.. She was too pre-occupied that she missed hunting the rabbit and feels the 'human' is coming near her spot.

@Kang Jiyoung It was probably only a few hours after sunrise, and Sehun had now reached the inner depths of the forest. He was looking for a plant of a very rare species, that was one of a kind in itself and very difficult to find. He'd been told that if he were to find it in any place, then it had to be this part of the forest. The flower that bloomed only for a night- a full moon night- and then shed its petals the very next day. Flores Nocte or The Bloom of the Night, was a flower with reviving properties and the caster needed it for the potion that he was making to heal the plants and trees that were dying- the final ingredient of his spell. He was engrossed in looking around for the fallen petals of Flores Nocte, when he heard breaking of twigs nearby, indicating the presence of another. Thinking it to be a deer, he looked up and around to see who it was.
