Koal spun, the armor-like constructs on his arms hissing to life, engulfing the limbs in a opaque blackness. The tips sharpened into claws, but before Koal did anything he might regret, he listened to the offer. Was it worth it? Assist this man in his endeavors to obtain a weapon… It seemed like a good enough opportunity to learn more about this world and the way it operated. His claws dissipating, the Demi-human backed away before skeptically regarding the being before his eyes.
Clad in a sort of armor, he could see none of the natural features this man possessed, but he could appreciate the work and skill it took to build and maintain a suit of that caliber. His violet eyes flashed with a faint glimmer of respect. His eyes snapped up to the helmet, narrowing. He snorted derisively.
“Why should I help you? What could you possibly teach me or give me that I couldn't learn or obtain on my own?” He growled, his form flickering. “If you can't learn something as simple as magic, then I don't know what the hell you'll be good for!” The Shape-shifter spun on a heel, intending to step through the gate, before he felt a hand roughly grab the back of his jacket, before whirling him around. His throat was held tight, effectively cutting off his air supply. He tried to pry at the hand that held him, but found he could break the grip. It's not like he wasn't strong enough, if Koal had to guess, he was just as strong as this guy. The problem was that he had a secure hold that the teen couldn't break even if he was stronger. The grip was released suddenly, and Koal fell to the ground, his lungs screaming for air. He felt a new respect for the figure before him.
“Alright, fine, I'll help you.”
