I am so sorry for how long this took. I've got Finals coming up and I got distracted by that and playing League to keep myself sane and not freaking out. Anyway, here's the last bit of Kindred's arc, I hope everyone liked it.

Chapter 2

Dianne was back out into the woods and hunting much faster than Cira had been able to get back to her 'normal' life. Then again, being the newly Chosen Eternal Hunters had to have something to do with it.

The young woman took a deep breath, closing her eyes for a second before reopening them, locking onto the deer that grazed unknowingly in her sights.

"Breathe in, breathe out…" she thought…

"What's taking so long?" a low male voice growled as a shadow swirled around Dianne's waist, "Shoot!"

Dianne gave a huffed sigh and looked at the shadow that swirled around her, watching as it took the form of a large wolf.

"Patience, Wolf," Dianne told him, "I've got to focus,"

"Words, words, la-la-la pew twang pew," Wolf snarked, his misty form writhing in irritancy.

"Quit imitating Lamb," Dianne sighed as a female voice echoed in her head.

"I'm hungry, I'm hungry I'm bored. Chase! Chase! Chase!" Lamb returned, making Dianne give a soft groan of annoyance.

Having her own thoughts make themselves voiced was bad enough…now she had two voices in her head that liked to voice their opinions. Three if you counted her own moral compass.

"I wonder if the other Chosen had this problem?" Dianne murmured to herself as she lifted her bow once more…or rather, the blued bow of the Kindred.

Her own bow had been broken after her fight with the wolves, Andrew had offered Lamb's bow to the young woman…seeing as she'd need it if she was to be the next Eternal Hunters. But to be honest, and he was not going to tell her this, he didn't want another episode of what happened with Cira and Leona when the latter found out her sword and shield were still in Runeterra. Wolf and Lamb knew, but Dianne didn't and the former two didn't see any reason why Dianne needed to know about Cira and Leona's fight with Andrew.

Dianne fixed her dark gaze on the doe once more…just to see a glowing circle of white, blue and violet swirl into being. She watched in wonder as the Mark of the Kindred glowed brightly above the doe.

"Take the Mark," Lamb's voice whispered.

Dianne closed her eyes once more…and when she opened them again, they weren't the normal dark black irises that she normally had. No, her eyes burned the blued violet of the Kindred now. She pulled back on Lamb's bow, a silver arrow materializing on the string…

Right as a loud 'thud!' sounded off and the doe collapsed to the ground, lifeless with an aluminum arrow jutting between her ribs.

"NO!" Wolf roared, swirling around Dianne, "THAT WAS MINE!"

"Easy," Dianne placated, although she was just as irritated.

"Look Daddy! I got it!" a little child's voice chirped as a little boy and his father stepped onto the scene.

Dianne's heart plummeted as she saw the boy excitedly kneeling down next to the doe while his father put a proud hand on his shoulder.

"Well done, sport," he beamed, ruffling the boy's hair, "Let's get her back to the truck, your Mom will make some good food out of this one,"

"They stole from us," Wolf snarled, "We…"

"Do nothing," Dianne ordered, "He's learning how to hunt, we'll find another,"

"…But that is not…"

A shudder ran though Dianne's body and it was if she were looking through a telescope.

"It will be our way…for now, dear Wolf," Lamb replied, "Do not fear, we will take our Mark once more,"

She let Dianne take back control, making the girl shudder slightly as she held her arm.

"Don't do that to me," she started, "It feels weird,"

"I will only do it with permission from now on, Dianne Faye," Lamb replied, "Unless situation calls for such action, of course,"

Wolf let out a howl and Dianne smiled as she sensed a wild, soaring feeling rise in her heart.

The Hunt was about to begin!

They had claimed a Mark and returned back to the house with their prize, a handsome six point buck, only to see Andrew standing on the porch, talking with Dianne's mother.

"Ah, there you are Dianne, Kindred," Andrew smiled, "I've been waiting for you,"

"For what?" Dianne asked warily.

"Mainly to say that I need you to come with me," Andrew told her, "I'm not going to keep it from you, I'm here to take you to Valoran so you can learn from your new teacher,"

"Lamb and I can teach her everything," Wolf growled, fading into existence.

"I'm not saying you can't, Wolf," Andrew replied as Dianne's mother shook her head, still not used to the spectral creature, "But Dianne needs to learn the basics of being a Champion's Chosen,"

"Meaning?" Dianne asked.

"Meaning you'll learn from our other Chosen," Andrew told her, "She's a good teacher, she's actually getting a degree in education,"

"So she's college age?" Dianne blinked.

"20," Andrew nodded, "Soon to be twenty one at the end of July,"

"And if…I don't want to go?"

"We can't keep Kindred decommissioned forever," Andrew admitted, "It's either you train with her now or you get thrown into the Rift with no experience whatsoever,"

"Kindred's a Jungler," Dianne relied, "Is this other Chosen another Jungler?"

"No…" Andrew admitted, "She's a Fighter…or a Support, depends on how you build her,"

"So that means it's either Kayle, Soraka, Sona or Leona," Dianne murmured, "Lamb, do you know?"

"No," Lamb replied, "I don't. Andrew kept that part from us. All we know is that she and her Chosen had a bit of a fight with Andrew because Andrew didn't tell her her weapons were still in Runeterra,"

"Do you think I should go?"

"Considering that a few Summoners are having us as the Marksman instead of the Jungler, yes. I believe that would be a wise idea,"

"Fine," Dianne nodded, "We'll go,"

"Good," Andrew breathed a sigh of relief, "It won't take long. You'll be summoned within the hour though…I need to let her know she's going to teach you,"

Andrew wasn't lying, they were summoned within the hour. What he failed to tell them…was that Dianne would actually become Lamb upon transporting.

Dianne was working on her shot with Lamb's bow with her sister overseeing her…just to make sure she didn't strain herself…when a sharp pain shot up her legs. Dianne shrieked as she pitched forwards and her legs bent backwards with sickening creaks and snaps, folding into a form that looked more akin to an animal's than human. Soft white fur started to sprout from Dianne's skin and a dark, pointed mask formed over her eyes, making it seem that her eyes were just solid blue. Light exploded around her and when it died…She was in a great atrium with a high ceiling and many windows.

The frightened girl caught her reflection in the mirror and she gasped as she saw herself. No longer did a girl of sixteen years with dark black hair and a white streak, glasses and dark black eyes stand before the mirror…instead, a white-furred, graceful creature stood before it. Her bow rested easily in her hand as she took in her form. A black mask of ancient wood sat on her face, covering it and exposing two floppy white ears that drooped down past it.

"What…what did they do to me?" Dianne whispered, only to hear Lamb's soft voice instead of her own.

"You're me now," Lamb replied as Wolf materialized around her, "You're the new Kindred. You bear not only our name, but our look as well,"

"Where am I?" Dianne asked as she looked around the large hallway.

"Let's find out," Lamb suggested.

Dianne's ears flicked as she quietly, well, quietly for her, walked towards the nearest door, her hooves making soft clicking noises on the tile. She cautiously put a white-furred hand on the handle and gave it an experimental twist.

The door swung open without so much as a squeak.

"Ah, I was wondering when you would get here," a female voice started.

It was as warm as the sun and just as bright, Dianne cocked her head as her Wolf swirled around her, his own ears flicking anxiously.

"Who are you?" Dianne asked as she spied a figure standing in front of the window with her back towards Dianne.

"You must be Kindred," the woman started, "Dianne Faye I think's what Andrew told me your name was,"

"Y-Yes?" Dianne stammered as the woman gave a warm laugh and turned around.

She was taller than Dianne, but thicker built. She was human, her red hair rippling down her back as the sun glinted off her scarlet and gold armor…as well as the massive shield and rayed sword near her person.

"My name is Cira Noble, I'm a Chosen like you," the woman, Cira, started, "But you can call me by another name,"

She gave a smile, her golden eyes sparkling in joy and turning a brighter shade of gold.

"You can call me…Leona,"

Training wasn't that hard. Cira…Leona… was good at being a support. Dianne stayed behind Cira and let the other Chosen take the brunt of the damage, giving a smile as the other Chosen laughed off the damage and proceeded to stun the other Champion with a quick bash of her glowing shield. She felt Kindred's power throbbing through her and she smiled as she was able to vault forwards over walls, minions, enemy Champions and take her Marks swiftly and efficiently.

"I'll have to ask Andrew if he can have one of the Junglers teach you how to do that," Cira explained as she whirled Leona's blade around with ease, "Because honestly, it's just you and me. I thought I was going to be the only one…and then Andrew told me you existed,"

She gave a brilliant, warm smile.

"I'm glad I'm not alone anymore. No one needs to be alone,"

She looked up at the sun, closing her eyes and letting its warmth bathe her and heal her due to Leona's power.

"Andrew told me you were in an accident," Dianne started, "May I ask…"

"What happened?" Cira asked, giving a sad smile, "I saw a girl walking down the street…but there was a car going way too fast down it. She would have died if I didn't push her out of the way…I just wasn't fast enough,"

She rubbed a golden gauntlet behind her coppery hair.

"I still have scars," she admitted, "I was so close to dying, the doctors had all but given up on me,"

"She's not wrong," Lamb replied, "Cira was one who was accepting my arrow…and would have had Leona not Chosen her,"

"Does that mean…I'm going to have to end someone's life?" Dianne asked.

"You are the Kindred now…you must take your Mark if you see it,"

Dianne shook her head. She didn't want to, but Lamb was right. She couldn't show favoritism to anyone. If she saw her Mark, it was her job to take it.

She looked back at Cira, who had closed her eyes again and was facing the sun, her skin nearly glowing from the radiance.

"Thank you, Cira," Dianne started, making Cira's blue eyes open as she smiled, "It was nice meeting you…but I think I should be getting home,"

"You and me both," Cira nodded, "I've got to get back to college work…and I bet my boyfriend's waiting on me. Andrew called me out in the middle of our date night,"

She pulled a face and gave a low, warm laugh.

"Arthur's going to kill Andrew one of these days," Cira chuckled, "He's still not happy about Andrew telling me I had to fight,"

Dianne gave a smile and turned to leave…but she could have sworn she saw Cira's figure flicker, the golden armor turning silver and a visor appearing over the woman's eyes while her copper hair turned white as snow. But it had to be a trick of the light…right?

Dianne had been sent back a long time ago and Cira waited patiently for Andrew to show up before she left for Earth once again. It didn't take much longer as Andrew walked into the room and faced the new Radiant Dawn.

"I've met Kindred, like you asked," Leona told him, "And trained her a bit too…why are we still here?"

"Because we've had another Chosen," he started, handing another picture to the first of the Chosen.

Cira took the photo, looking at the young man in it.

"His name is Samuel Falmer," Andrew told her, "But you'll learn to know him by a different name,"

"And that is?"

"Leona, Cira, meet Gragas,"

My goal with this series is to (hopefully) get some rivals. I've got Leona and Diana (and trust me, that's going to be fun) but I kinda want more. I'm also hoping to get more Projects in too because I'm going to be doing a story based on them after Fiora's arc's written (if I don't get anymore Projects). That...and I'm wanting to see if I can get at least one from every location.
