Title: His First Steps
Description: Open to all

The boat trip to this land wasn't enjoyable at all. The entire time he felt traped above deck and going below deck was even worse though he was forced to every full moon during the trip. He had been on this damned ship for over a month. His reason for leaving his home was simple, too many people had known what he was, and once people found out there was allways trouble. He thought that going somewhere new that the people wouldn't know. All ready though the crew was beginning to guess at what that was. At least he would be off in a hour or so as he saw the land ahead.
A hour later he was finally stepping off the ship and onto solid ground. Glancing around he could see he was standing in a dock to a much larger city compared to the one he had left. One of the men on the ship had called it Lómëdor. It didn't matter much to him anyway. All he thought of was going out of the city and into he wilds again where he would feel more at home. As quickly as he could he picked up the few things that he had with him and left the docks. Passing by the people he wondered if anyone knew what he was. How fast could word spread about things like that. If any from the boat had figured it out and said something just about anyone could know. Passing what looked like a bar he took a side alley thinking it would be a shortcut out of the town.
It turned out to be a dead end. Taking a closer look he realized that it was much darker in this alley then out on the main streets. Perhaps he should have just stayed on them. Just as he was turning around though he noticed a few people were blocking his path at the opening of the alley. If he couldn't see so well in the dark he wouldn't have sen them as a few of the sailors from the ship he had just been on. They must have followed him here. Walking a bit closer he so he could speak to them. "Did I forget something?" he stated and waited for a response. Waiting he noticed that most of them had there swords drawn.
One of them stepped forward and held up his sword as if to defend himself,"We know what you are and were not letting you live!" The man shouted at him as the others stepped up as well. Looking around he tried to think of a way out of this without needing to transform but could find none. Still thinking as quick as he could he began to back up and the men continued to advance on him. But he had only so much space till his back would be up against the wall.

"Leave the poor guy alone, has hasn't done anything really." The voice coming from the shadows said. He saw what looked like truble and he came to see what it was. Still not being one that likes fights Seth was interested in finding out what was going on when he saw the sailors running after a man to then block the man's path. I think it would be best if you guys leave compleat strangers like him alone. You don't know what they might be able to do to you." Seth said coming out of the shadowns with his hands behind his head like usual and a smirk on his face to what he was saying. He walked over and leaned on a wall next to the sailors that were there. "Get out of here, this is none of your concern boy" Said one of the sailors that were standing behind the one to step forward. Why did people do such things. It's not like he was hurting someone at the moment. Seth couldn't care less for either side of what was going on but he was bored and needed to do something. And that was looking like the smart thing to do for fun at the time, watching fights always got him happy. Being in them on the other hand usually meant losing the fight. Seth was not one to fight much and since he did not like to do it when he did he would always hold back and usually thought that he didn't know as much fighting as the person he was fighting with or against.
This was one more of those times where he didn't know where he was. He just woke up a few days ago very close to where he is now and he has just been running aorund the place ever since. Almost every day to him was exactly the same therefore his life being the same. He would wake up somewhere strange, have no clue how he got there, not care, move on, Repeat. His life was always in the same circle, shortly after making it to the Misty Forest he would end up somewhere else after falling asleep a month or two later. It was his gift to see the world and his curse to not have control of what part. But he did not mind. This was his second time in Lomedor and he knew that much. He did not know what part of it he was in because he never really knew anything about Lomedor other than that he was there before. Just another city for him, bigger than all the others but still just another city. He had seem most of Arda this way, waking up in the most of radom places thought of. He was greatful that he could have the chance to see so much though. He did not care to wake up somewhere else because that was just more people to meet, new places to see, and more fun to have. That is the whole basis of Seth's life to start with and that is why being here now did not bother him at all.
Seth looked around to see exactly what was going on but as he saw before it was only one man being fallowed by another one. Nothing out of the ordanary and nothing more than some ailors looking for truble. But that is only how it looked from a far. Seth did not know the reason they fallowed him or what the man could do himself. "So exactly what is wrong with the picture? Why are the little girl in sailor suits fallowing you?" Seth asked the man laud enough for the sailors to hear him making fun of their uniforms. He was just having a little fun, not like they would get angry or too angry for him saying that. If they had a sense of humor they would at the least laugh themselves. Seth lowered his hands and then looked at the two men at the front. The one they were fallowing and the sailor to step up to him. "Either one of you doing anything anytime soon?" He asked. Now all he could do is wait for a fight between the sailors and the man brake out and the man looked as if he could handle himself well but Seth could be wrong and if so... then running would happen, and very fast running that it would be. Seth smirked again at the thought of the sailors getting beat up and having a loss at a fight to one man and it just seemed like something to have a great rest of day over.

Bane was almost had his back to the wall when he heard the voice of another person. Looking around he couldn't see where it was coming from at first, "Leave the poor guy alone, has hasn't done anything really." Standing there he could tell that the sailors were wondering where the voice came from as well. Looking to a shadowy corner of the alley he could make out a lone person. With his ability to see well in the dark he could see that the man was smirking about something. Trying to get a better look the stranger spoke again, "I think it would be best if you guys leave complete strangers like him alone. You don't know what they might be able to do to you." Looking on to the sailors he could see the fear in their eyes of the stranger but even greater fear with him. Perhaps she could use that fear to his advantage.
He finally decided to try something when one of the sailors spoke up but not to him, "Get out of here, this is none of your concern boy" It seemed that the stranger was being drawn into his problem. He was just praying that none of them shouted out what he really was. Once again he found himself about to act when the stranger spoke again, "So exactly what is wrong with the picture? Why are the little girl in sailor suits fallowing you?" Bane knew the answer right away but that was the last one he wanted to answer. Not able to come up with a good enough cover story quickly he remained quite. The sailors however didn't, "If you knew what he was you would kill him too, wer..." The man wasn't able to finish what he was going to say. Before any of them could react Bane dashed forward and slammed his fist into the gut of the man speaking causing him to loose his breath and tumble backwards. The sailors shock soon wore off as they srounded him. He thought he heard the voice of the stranger again but he ignored it. He needed to keep his thoughts to the fight at hand.
Not waiting for one to attack him first he backfliped over the sailor behind him and kicked him before landing ready for more. The man that was hit fell forward falling on a few of the others. As they tried to untangle themselves from each other two of the others came after him.

" why don't you go ahead and tell me what he is then!" Said said to the sailor after telling Seth what he did. It did catch his attention that there was a reason for his being something that they would want him but at the most all Seth could think of for the time being was a theif or and assassin which was all bad on it's own but not something that they should kill him over. He didn't really think there was any reason to have to kill him. Jail was always an option but they seem to not like that one too well and went straght for the last resort. They waisted no time in going straght for deth other than the nicer, safer, and much better options that were open to them. How hard could it possibly have been to just catch him and take him inyto some kind of containment as he was. This was all runing through Seth's mind and all of a seden the man attacked one of the sailors with s straght out punch. The sailor went down for air as the blow took that away.
Seth moved a little away from where the men were not fighting and the other sailors were jumping in right after the one to step forward at first. Show time. Seth thought to himself when he staped back and started watching the men fight. He was happy that not he got to see a fight after a while with no clue on wht to do lost in that place. Being that it wasn't his first time being lost there. He already knew that whenever he was lost and had nothing to do you just look for some pople and fallow them to they take you to the closest interesting thing they could find. Then you just tak it from there. This was how he ended up in the alley but it ws more of a fallow till you got tired thing. Interesting. He thought to himself while watching the men fight. He didn't bother to join or anything, he was not going to help.
While he watched the fight the men started taking themselves more seriously and the fighting got tougher, still not having a single thought of joining Seth only watched an examined their moves. He thought that by just watching he could both have fun and maybe learn a thing or two from some fighterst that seem to know what they are doing. That could help him for the future to be ready for a fight since they seem to catch up to him even when he tries to avoid them.

As Bane stood there, the two sailors advancing toward him, he heard the stranger speak again, why don't you go ahead and tell me what he is then!" Thinking about it he ignored him once again. He wasn't going to answer that question, and he was going to try and make sure they didn't either. But at the time they didn't seem to be in the mood to talk and seemed more intent on killing him. Not like they could, if needed he could transform but he really wished it wouldn't come to that.
Realizing he had been thinking to long he barely had the time to duck under one of the sailors blades. Now lower to the ground he swung his leg out and tripped the same sailor. Once he hit the ground he slammed his elbow into the mans neck. It didn't snap but he wouldn't be fighting anymore. Looking up the second sailor was almost on top of him now and tired to use the blade of him own swinging it down at him. Rolling to the side the blade hit the ground where he had been. He then tackled the sailor and once on top of him grabbed his head and twisted it snapping his neck. He was sure that the stranger could have heard it but he didn't seem interested in helping, which was just fine with him. Standing up it looking like the other three sailors were finally able to untangle themselves. They seemed even more scared then before looking at the fallen ones.
AS he stood there looking at the last there he could see that there eyes were darting between himself and the stranger then back to him. "you stupid..." Bane tried to rush the man to stop him from finishing his sentence but found that he wouldn't be able to avoid it the second time, "Werewolf, you'll die for this" Bane new that the other man had heard, but he would deal with that later, killing the sailors and the stranger seemed to be the only way to stop the rumors from spreading further. Walking as quick as he could the sailors backed up a little seeing how much they had pissed him off. Reaching for one of them he grabbed the mans throat and pulled ripping the bones within his throat out, dropping them to the ground. The two left alive tried to run but he grabbed the tops of both their heads and slammed them together. One fell to the ground while the other tried to continue running away. Standing on the neck of the sailor on the ground he stood there till he died. By then the other sailor was almost out of the alley. Reaching for the long sword he had the entire time he threw it at the man who soon fell to the ground with the blade sticking through his chest. He then turned to the stranger. He wasn't sure what he would have to do but he wasn't going to let the man spread tales of a werewolf.
