"Well this interesting," Gale said he was looking down a list of potions ingredients.
Cara made a noise half way between a snort and a giggle.
"Real interesting," Tim said sarcastically.
"If I eva get a boil dis should 'elp," Adela said, taking a handful of porcupine quills and adding them to the mixture.
"Gah!" everyone said as the cauldron melted, Dawn was the first one sitting on another table as the potion flooded over Adela's.
"I'ma neva lettin' you brew a potion for meh," was Tim's answer, they all were giving each other looks,
Gale opened his potions book and flipped through it till he found the recipe for Adela's potion,
"Addie you're s'pposed turn the heat off afore you add the quills," Gale said with a groan. Adela looked down at her ruined potion in shame.
"Well no use in cryin' ova spilled milk," Dawn said, she rubbed her hands together.
"We're not s'pposed to do magic by ourselves," Cara said giving Dawn a weary look.
"Adela's going to vanish it oh course," Tim said, gesturing towards the potion, Adela gave him a piercing look.
Dawn answered when Adela looked like she wanted to decline,
"You're the only one here who can cast a vanishing charm," Adela looked unsure, Tim sighed in exasperation,
"Ad, just pretend it iz another mouse," Everyone looked at him like he was insane then.
"I'ma tryin' tah 'elp!" Tim objected to the stares he was getting. Adela performed the vanishing spell looking relieved that it didn't double.
"Let's just put our potions in bottles and leave," Cara said, the rest of the group followed her suit, and left.
"So what potion did yah make?" Gale asked Cara,
"If I told yah it wouldn't be a secret," Cara answered back.
"I smell revenge cooking," Dawn said, a light wind blew around them.
"You must be smelling Cara's cooking," Gale said with a smirk, he barely had enough time to run off when Cara started after him.
"Young love," Dawn said watching them run into the forest; she got a couple odd glances from Adela and Tim at that.
"Full moon last night wasn't dah best," Adela said remembering, Tim shivered.
"You get used to it; you're the newest arrival here." Dawn said; it had only been the full moon before the last Adela arrived there.
"You've been 'ere the longest," Tim said glancing Dawn over, her black eyes expressionless.
"That'd be Dagmar, but of the teens and kids yeah," Dawn said after some apparent thought. The wind toyed with Tim's dirt brown hair, and they all were lost in there own thoughts. At least until they were shook out of them.
Gale was laughing his head off, and Cara was laughing along side with him.
"Insanity, it spreads," Tim said after a few moments, Adela and Dawn nodded there agreement. They always were argued more insane then the way Dawn acted at times. Of course that was just her nature. It wasn't Cara's to all of a sudden start laughing.
Dawn turned her head towards the rest of the village; there was a somber mood about, the one she recognized when a new werewolf was found,
"Everyone, I think there's a new person 'ere," Dawn said gesturing, Tim looked towards the direction with the sad expression on his face. Adela looked with him her emotions beyond expression. Cara and Gale walked towards them and noticed were they were looking. Cara froze; Gale's face went bright white.
They all stood that way for a long time, the length of time they had was unknown.
"Think we oughta say somethin'?" Tim asked after they started coming out of there reverie.
"I guess," Adela said; she was shivering with the grim reality.
Dawn led the way instead of Cara; Gale decided later he'd make some crack about Cara finally respecting her elders. Now however wasn't the time.
Selene noticed them walking towards the location without surprise. They always seemed to know when someone knew came in, she figured Dawn was the mechanism behind this because ever since she arrived she had been one of the first people the rest of the group of mixed kids had seen.
"Hello Selene, Can we erm," Tim started, he was nervous talking to one of the highest members in the colony.
"Talk to the new person?" Cara said really fast her nerves almost kept her from getting it out at all.
"Sure yah can, his injuries are healed as they can, so you can show 'im around and everythin'," Selene said walking out of the door allowing them to go through.
Adela gave her a last glance before entering. It was all a familiar sight to them; it was the first thing they had all seen in the village.
In the bed underneath the window lay a young kid. He had hair the color of straw falling over closed eyes.
"You awake?" Adela asked in a small voice, the figure on the bed opened brown eyes staring at them.
"What happened?" were the words that spilled out of his mouth.
"Do yah remember anythin'?" Tim asked; the boy shook his head, after a while a look of horror was on his face. He started shaking with tears. Cara looked at Dawn; these were tears that could only go away by themselves. Adela stood there hopeless, Gale could only stare steadily at the floor, and Tim was looking at the ceiling. Everyone knew that they could do nothing, it was a horrible feeling.
The boy stopped shaking after awhile and looked at them with an odd face,
"What are you doing here?" Was his question, Dawn decided to add a bit of humor to the situation.
"Well you see, it all started when my mom met my dad," Dawn started she stopped when Cara poked her in the shoulder,
"You know that's not what he meant!" Tim found this situation mildly funny but thought it was wrong to laugh.
"Ok, this is a Werewolf colony opposed to Greyback," Dawn said in a matter-O-fact tone.
The boy tried to sit up but fell back down.
"What's you're name?" Gale asked speaking for the first time there.
"Mark,"
"What's you're full name?" Gale corrected.
"Mark Ralph Adams," The boy answered.
"Well Mark, call me Gale." Gale said with a grin that startled Mark.
The group was in silence for a few minutes while they thought about what they should say.
"Do yah think you can walk?" Tim asked in a pensive voice.
"I think so," Mark said, he tried to sit up and fell back down.
"Mind if I help?" Gale asked; he then promptly blushed at what you could read into it.
"No," Mark said; Gale extended an arm to pull Mark up and support himself.
They all knew he probably wouldn't be able to walk today, Mark groaned at that thought.
"We'll be here to see you tomorrow," Cara said with a grin, she could tell that Mark was puzzled at the situation he found himself in.
"I hate the idea oh leavin' 'im there for the night," Gale said, he had spent all night trying to count all the beams of wood on the ceiling.
"Meh too," Cara said her grin had vanished as soon as she had turned around to leave.
"Well on the bright side he might be well enough to walk around tomorrow." Adela said trying to be positive.
"Did you know that Mark means 'Warrior' and Ralph means 'Wolf Council'?" Cara asked.
"Care you spend to much time reading," Gale said looking her over as though he though something was wrong with her.
"It was a book Selene gave meh for meh birthday," Cara said hotly.
"When you put his name like that it sounds like fate," Dawn commented.
"It does," Adela said calmly, "Just don't tell me what my name means!" Adela added her voice sharp.
"Don't worry I won't, though I do know," Cara said.
Gale and Tim glared at her.

Thank you for you're reviews! Raymond I'll squeeze you in the next chapter. Thank you Tendancy to Yell for reviewing. By the way I am pretty sure the translations of the names are acurate, I got them out of the book What's in a name? I picked the names of the kids depending on that and everything. I'll slip them in if possible. If you have any ideas you think should happen leave it in a pm or a review. REVIEW! please?
A/N2: Also, I have a question. I don't know if Remus's hair is blonde or brown. And if his eyes are blue or amber. I've read story's with different refrences, if you know the honest answere tell me!
