((OOC: We're going to pretend Strype and Rahne haven't met before. Retcons happen.))
Strype was lying in the grass, soaking up the sun. She had been training quite a bit lately, and so she decided to take advantage of the sunny and warm day. Like her cat counterpart, she enjoyed lying in the sun, though her tongue didn't hang out and she didn't form a tail just to twitch. It was looking like a nice, relaxing day.

Rahne wandered out into the sun, blessing the warm weather that allowed her to be outside. She she ranged over the expansive lawns of the institute she almost tripped over a form lying in the grass.
"Sorry!" She hastily apologized "I didna see ye there."

Kyra opened her eyes, startled when someone almost walked on her. She had been dozing, and hadn't heard anything. "It's all right," She said, smiling up at the tall redhead.

The wolf growled a warning in Rahne's head as she stared down at the girl in the grass but she silenced the beast. What was that all about? Putting it aside, Rahne dropped down into the grass next to Kyra.
"I'm Rahne." She offered with a smile.

"I'm Kyra," She said in exchange, smiling back as Rahne sat next to her. "It's pretty nice today, huh?" For some reason she felt a little ill at ease, like a prickling feeling at the back of her neck.

"Yeah well it was a beautiful night. Beautiful night equals beautiful day in my book" Ra shrugged. With one hand she rubbed the back of her neck, she could feel her- the wolf's- fur standing on end. We just ran last night, you can't be that desperate to be free! she exclaimed mentally What is going on here?
"So..uh.. how did ye come to be here... at Xavier's that is?"

"I kind of found my way here," Kyra said, shrugging slightly. She wasn't too proud of her life before Xavier's, but that was past her. She had a good life, and an education, in front of her. "How about you?"

"I had escaped from an institution and was living in New York. I'd been there about two months when I found the brochure for this place." Rahne flopped onto her back and rolled around a bit, savoring the smell of the freshly crushed grass. The wolf, momentarily placated by this familiar canine behavior gave a happy yip that only Rahne could hear.

"I'm sorry to hear you were in a place like that," Kyra said, though that made her eyes widen a bit. An institution? Did she have a dangerous power? Though the way she rolled on the grass reminded Kyra of a dog. "My mother wanted to put me in a place like that."

"I dunno. I guess ye could call it a dangerous gift. Heh." She gave a joyless laugh "Maybe they thought I'd bite there children."

Kyra raised an eyebrow. "What's your power, again?"

Ra gave a lopsided grin and morphed, right there on the spot. Tounge now lolling out one side of her mouth in that goofy way that canine's have, she lay there wagging her tail and waiting for Kyra's reaction.

Kyra's skin prickled, and her eyes shone yellow in response to the animal that lay before her. Both of them were hunters, although her control was much better, thanks to Xavier's training. She might have morphed to the tiger instinctively, defensively, a year ago.

Rahne saw Kyra's eyes flash yellow and fell out of her wolf form. "Whoa" she said sitting up "So you're the one professor Xavier told me about. The tiger." She surpressed the growl that was trying to come out, since she had a feeling that starting a fight over something like animal instincts was not going to fly with Xavier.

"Yeah," Kyra said, nodding. "You surprised me a little. No wonder I had a prickling feeling, though. Two meat-eaters in one place."
