Kratos watched the girls work out their new found problems with amusement, but kept a straight face. by demon law, he was only allowed to train them, not help them bond. however the next thing he heard had him doubling over with a genuine and very hearty laugh.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">"Okay, Raphael, this will either heal your leg or turn it into a puppy."</span><br/><br/>"A cat... with a dog on one of it's... hind legs! Raph, You should see the look on your face!" he said as he righted himself.<br/><br/>"What did you just say? You girls heard him too right?" Raphael said suddenly very alert. Kratos hadn't called him Raph for over a millennium, so what was different? Then he noticed it. that small glance at Rylie. Of course! He had become more jovial because of her! Raphael smiled. Someone had finally gotten to his master!<br/><br/>Kratos meanwhile, smiled as Raphael stood up and followed him as he led the girls and his familiar into the open courtyard of the castle. Without pausing in his walk across the huge open area, Kratos spread his wings. "Since I am the one with wings, I guess I will have to teach Emily to fly for starters. Rylie, Raphael will show you how to use what would be considered a heli-cam nowadays. it requires concentration, so let's start with the transformation command and go from there. It really isn't anything special, but you need to have a command you can remember, because after the first time you do it, there is little room for improv. for I and Raphael it is executed like this," He turned to his familiar. "Cat ears? I don't see anyone with cat ears!"<br/><br/>As Raphael morphed to a plain old cat, he elaborated. "The trigger phrase we agreed upon was Cat Ears. it can be adapted to fit a lot of situations if need be, so get creative." Kratos then noticed Raphael was rubbing up against Emily's leg. "And here we go with the unwanted side effect of being a cat..." he muttered.
