Kiba also stopped and waited for her answer. It is really amazing that Tersias has grown and flourished in Tialka so. He was proud of her. As they all were.

"I..." Tersias' voice faltered. She looked at Kiba, then at Mira, then finally at Seirei. If she had to die for them, then so be it, as long as it kept them safe. Especially Seirei. Turning back to Mira, she nodded "I promise" she said quietly, her voice cracking. "Tersias is just a naive girl who thinks she's in love, she wouldn't exactly stop him" Seema muttered "I think I know my own sister better than you Kiba, and I know that I know what's best for her better than you."

Mira's steely gaze softened at Tersias' reply, and the smile returned. "Hold your crystal above the altarstone," she instructed. "It will take its form, and the initiation will be almost complete."

"But I also know Seirei better then you do, and if I remember correctly, not to be rude, But she told you that she was going to make her own decisions. I agree that if she is an adult you can tell her your opinion, but you have no right to interfere in her personal life." A white flash appeared and Shiro stood there. "What did I miss?" She giggled.

Taking the large crystal in her front paws, Tersias held it above the altarstone, shaking a little. As she stood, the crystal took the shape of a large diamond, with a star-shaped hole in the middle. Around the hole, dozens of raindrops were etched into the pink surface of the crystal "Wow" she whispered, transfixed. Seema glowered at Kiba, furious.

Seirei was proud of Tersias for answering the last question sincerely. He went to stand by her as she held her crystal above the altar. "You can place it in its hole now." he said gently. He looked around the circle of stone pillars, he wondered where hers would fit in.

"Sorry to say it, but that is how I live. You cannot interfere. If they want to have kits, that is their choice. You can help guide her, or try to tell her what to do, and she won't listen to you. Now it's your choice." He turned to Shiro. "Is everything set up?" "Of course." She laughed. "The ceremony is almost done, so we need to have it ready. Good job Shiro."

Mira hid a chuckle as she looked at the form it had taken. In the corner of her eye, she could see Seirei's crystal glowing slightly in response. "Now, you must take it around the stones, to find the place where it is best suited to be. Then, the initiation will be complete."

Tersias found the right spot almost immediately; with a stone so big, a hole to match it was fairly conspicious. It was on a pillar opposite the altar, aligning with Seirei's almost exactly. She slotted it in, with a little difficulty as it was a very tight fit. Soon, though, it was in place, and the little silver lines that outlined the other crystals also outlined Tersias'. She smiled. Seema almost exploded "She's practically a kit herself, she's too young for a family!" she muttered to herself.

"Congratulations," smiled Mira, as both Tersias and Seirei's crystals glowed brightly for a moment, then flashed out. "You are now part of the Tialka Tribe." Her face donned a more serious expression. "Now, for business." She grinned. "Party!!"

Seirei smiled, her crystal had slotted into a pillar that stood close to his; he felt glad.
He walked up to her and took her paw in his. He bent his knees so that his eyes were at the same level as hers. He took a deep breath and smiled, his golden eyes twinkling, fixed on hers.
"I thought I could wait until the party but I think the time is right now. Tersias..." he smiled again. "I have loved you, since the first time we looked into each other's eyes. Now, many thought that it wouldn't work to start off with..." he glanced in the direction of Seema briefly. "But I can't live without you. We're like these pillars, close together, but nothing apart. So..." he took another deep breath. "Tersias, will you be my mate?"

Tersias' jaw fell. Her eyes lit up, brighter than all the stars in the sky, almost like two little spotlights, and as she brought one paw up to cover her mouth, tears of happiness began to gather, wetting her muzzle. Taking a deep breath and composing herself, she helped Seirei to his feet and licked his nose "Oh my god, of course I will, silly!" she squeaked, throwing her arms around his neck and hugging him tight. Seema's jaw also fell, "What the hell are you doing, Ters? You can't be serious!"

Mira raised her eyebrows. "Wow," she murmured. "Wasn't expecting that..." But she had a smile on her face, indicating that she approved.

Seirei's eyes, too, began to fill with tears, but they were tears of joy. He ignored Seema's outrage; she would have to learn to live with it. He was so happy. He licked her nose back, and nuzzled tightly into her. "I will love you till the day I die." he said, slightly muffled into her fur.

Kiba smiled. "Ok break it up you two. It's party time, you can get a room later." Kiba joked. "Would any of you mind if we teleport to the party?" Kiba asked.

Tersias stepped away from Seirei a little so she could look into his big, amber eyes. She smiled "I'd like that, Kiba" she said softly, not looking away from Seirei."I'd like that a lot." Seema stormed over, grabbing Tersias' paw and dragging her away from the group "You CANNOT, i repeat, CANNOT do this, Ters! For starters, he's not a fox, so god only knows what kinda freakish kids you'd have, and secondly, you're still practically a kit yourself, you are WAY too young to be mating, Tersias Tara!" she hissed.

Kiba stepped in quickly, removing her paw from Tersias. "As I have said, You can make the choice. You can condone her actions or support her decision even if you disagree. But I will not tolerate violence of any kind. And you are trying to convince her that she is not in love? Shame on you Seema."

Tersias just looked up at Seema with her big, dark eyes, and shook her head in anger, "Leave me alone, Seema. I've made my decision" she said quietly, her voice cracking, and choking her, as she blinked back tears, returning to the group, shaking with fury. "You bloomin well stay out of it" Seema roared at Kiba "This is NOT your battle to fight"
