Shyvana once again found herself in the forests of the institute, her golden eyes scanning across the forest once more as she stepped inside. Folding her arms over her chest, she let out a low sigh. It had been a few days sense her and Udyrs spar, and it left her with a lot to think on.
"Udyr." She simply said aloud, knowing the beast man couldn't be too far behind her own position.

"Your timing is better, but not by much," Udyr grunted. He stood behind Shyvana, unable to loom over the taller woman. It was odd how he could be so quiet. "We are about to go for our hunt. What do you want?"
The proof that the state is a creation of nature and prior to the individual is that the individual, when isolated, is not self-sufficing; and therefore he is like a part in relation to the whole. But he who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god.
Shyvana turned around and peered down at Udyr. For a long time, she was silent; but she did finally speak after swallowing her pride. "I need you to teach me... teach me how to focus my rage." She said flatly, crossing her arms. "I need to become stronger."

Udyr stared at Shyvana for quite some time before turning around and walking away. "We are going to hunt now," he grunted.

Udyr looked back, and snorted at her. He continued to walk away from her. "We are going hunting," he repeated once more. "Take that as you will."

Udyr would walk for quite some time in complete silence. The beast man made no effort to run, to speed his pace or anything. Eventually, his left hand fired out in a quick jab and grabbed something in the brush. He pulled at it and showed it was the antler of a moose. A very surprised, perturbed moose.
The beast man looked the animal in the eye, snapped his neck, and started to drag the carcass. He looked back and growled at Shyvana. "Your turn. Hunt for sustenance, use the senses of your nature."

Shyvana looked at Udyr and watched him drag a moose out and snap it's neck... tilting her head to the side, she closed her eyes and simply listened to the sounds around her like she usually did when she was hunting. A rustle came from the near by bushes and Shyvana instantly dove into them. The shrieks of a fox could be heard before Shyvana returned, the dead animal dangling from her mouth.
Letting animal sit there, she simply gave Udyr a look that said "And the point of this was?"

"Do you feel embarrassed?" the beast man snorted. "Do you feel ashamed, having a dead animal hang from your mouth in front of us? Are you looking over your shoulder, wondering if someone will see you, wondering why you killed something using your teeth? No. You do not. You went with instinct, and you stand there relaxed because you do not feel the need to put on that mask you have for people who expect societal standards to be kept."
Udyr reached over at the body of the moose, pierced his flank and tore out a healthy chunk of meat. His fire roared to life around the meat and he started to cook it in front of the half-dragon. "You are only allowed to be yourself when you are in our presence. If you are anyone else, if you try any falsity, then we will end you for wasting our time. Is that understood?"

Shyvana narrowed her eyes, but simply nodded her head yes... she then took the fox in her hands and tore a chunk out of it with her teeth, eating it raw. Blood dripping from her teeth and lips as she did so.

Udyr bit into his chunk of moose flesh, and ate in silence. He would stare at Shyvana the entire time, his eyes unwavering. No fear, no disgust, just primal understanding of one's nature. Udyr motioned to the moose at his side, and grunted. He was inviting her to take some of the meat.

Shyvana shrugged slightly and let the fox drop to the floor, skinned of meat, before she made her way over to the moose. Taking her hand, she plunged it into the side of the moose and tore out a chunk of meat, taking a bite out of it and chewing it in silence.

Udyr's voice changed. It became slightly deeper, more growling, but at the same time, it felt more...Honest? What a strange word, when used with the beast man. He never hid anything from anyone. "Do as I have done, allow yourself to show."
The beast man took another bite of the moose meat. His demeanor did not seem any different at the current moment, but his personal pronoun certainly changed.

Shyvana raised an eyebrow as she heard him refer to himself as "I"... strange, she thought, but did not think nothing more off it. Instead, she simply chewed the moose meat in her hand, taking another bite out of it and chewing that as well.
