She slowly moved in the direction of Keira, finally laying eyes on her, where she was leaning against a waist high chain link fence. Although, Gem could understand why Keira wouldn't trust her, but she approached her in human form. Hopefully, she figured this was at least an indicator that showed Gem was here to talk.<br/><br/>"Sorry for bothering you, but I think I need to give you a little heads up as to what you may face here at Nagual Academy," Gem said her eyes locked with Keira's. "I can tell you're a wolf, but I want to warn you. Don't cross Striker's path. No one deserves Striker's wrath, but I cannot defy him. He's an alpha and their word is law..."<br/><br/>She gave a sigh, her words echoing in her own mind, a view of how Gem has to obey what Striker says. She knew she wasn't strong enough to challenge him for alpha status. If she wasn't part of the pack, Striker would likely kill her, and this is exactly what she wanted to warn Keira about. Gem wasn't attempting to peer pressure her into joining the pack, but just send out a warning of her alpha.
