"Lia~" Iris barked, looking around and trusting her ears and nose to guide her to the mermaid. She had been looking for her for hours now, always leading to a dead end.

Cordelia had been missing since last night, disappearing after her sudden 'aggression' towards Zyro. He was also like her, a lycan, so the events of that night made her wonder what made Cordelia be like that. Athough, she felt something was wrong with her, even before that. Her attitude seemed different; the way she talked, her answers, her movements, especially her eyes. The idea made Iris feel angry. She was pissed with herself. She was her best friend, so she should have took notice of her weird movements.

She walked silently through the woods, soon placing her foot on the sandy shore.

"G-Geh, saltwater.." She looked around her surrounding, then closed her eyes and started sniffing the air. Iris was average sized and had small physique, around five and a few inches. She had long black hair which dangled up to the middle of her yellow trousers, her black furry ears protruded out of her head, her eyes had two colors, the left one was gold while the other was blue while her long black furry tail freely moving at her back.

The wind brought about a scent of two different races --- that of a werewolf and a demon. She scrunched her nose then shook her head. The academy's staff hadn't found out about that yet so she had to find her first before things got worse.

Noticing two figures at the corner of her eye --- a white-haired frail looking girl and a ... werewolf? In its 'werewolf' form? What the heck are those two doing here?  Iris approached the two figures cheerfully, showing her canine teeth carelessly. When she reached within a few feet of the two, she quickly halted, sensing a tense aura --- or, an intent to kill.

She glared at the two asking for an answer.

"What are two of the academy's students doing here? Ira and --- Zyro? And not to mention, looking for trouble..."

She crossed her arms, remaining an aloof calm appearance.
