Travelling to the grasslands (neo)

Travelling Port Shiku to Grasslands. (5 posts each)

Neo had just landed after having fled the boat which took him here. Reaching into his pocket he took out the stolen Xel, flicking it through his fingers as he counted. 700...Good haul. He placed it back out of sight and began to walk, making sure not to go to the village as he was unlikely to find what he was looking for there. Apparently there was a nice little grassland on the way to the next land, which may contain a number of creatures. Should be fun.

Neo wandered off the past and into the vast bushlands hoping to find a shortcut route, or perhaps some of the wildlife, either way was fine. Two clouds popped up beside him, floating around carelessly as he tracked the shitty terrain, crushing dead leaves and sticks as he walked, weaving his way through bugs and crappy animals which gave no interest at all.

Port Shoku, not that big of a port but still busy as any other one. Little children running around asking their parent's to buy candy and toys, the parent's being dragged by them some happy while others just going with the flow. Being wrapped up in the atmosphere, nobody really payed any attention to Neo so he passed through without much disturbance.

Neo sighed to himself, throwing his hood over himself in an attempt to remove discomfort. He fiddled with the money in his pockets due to a lack of anything else to do. He could see a small clearing ahead, two more clouds bursting out of now where, as he jumped, one forming below him, riding on it into the small plain hidden from the rest of the world. Sitting cross legged like a little Goku dodging trees effortlessly, floating out into the open.

If only Neo had arrived a littler earlier than he might have made it in time to catch a few creatures. But now it was just a clearing, with a patch of light shining through. Since it was entering the forest of the Land of Forsaken, not much light was reaching through, making this small clearing of light a rare commodity.

Neo sighed, as he continued on his merry way, straight through the crappy clearing and back into the forest. Still on route towards the grasslands, which according to the map, should be just up ahead. By going through the forest rather then the path, his travel time was indeed shortened, yet it was also more disappointing it seems.

Out in the distance howling could be heard, a loud cry which seemed to project from somewhere deeper in the forest. It would surely catch Neo's attention but for now the source was nowhere to be found. Other than that, the area Neo was in was mostly quiet, nothing to pressing going on.

The howl pierced Neo's ears, instantly standing up on the cloud, looking at the source of the cry as his body underwent its change. Ear's growing, his hair becoming wild, teeth sharpening and claws growing. He sniffed in the air, looking around. The sound couldn't have been too far, could it? Despite getting no trace as of yet, he would stay attentive, just in case.

Spoiler:

Note: For Den said the beast was a Conga and resides at the grasslands in which i am heading.

The howls continued, even if not giving Neo a solid trace, giving him something to go off of. At least pointing him in the right direction, not like anybody could get the direction wrong unless they were completely bad with directions, like Zoro off One Piece level bad. Other than that no real creatures crossed the path of Neo, possibly something was going on where the howling was coming from.

First off, this post shall note that Zoro now has an excellent sense of direction post TS. Sorry if your not up to date. Anyway, Neo began heading towards the sound, his cloud moving like there was no tomorrow, in which there actually was, he just really wanted to see the beast making the sounds. Then again, it sounds noisy, which is annoying, eventually it will piss him off, and Neo would lose his temper, but that's and issue for the future, current task, keep heading towards the howling, as he neared, Neo would release his wolf form, as it was no longer needed, sighed as two more clouds popped up around him. The fuckers are useful, but annoying.

Let the record show that no he does not, Zoro would probably get lost if you told him to walk left. The sound would only get louder as Neo went in its direction. Some other faint sounds could be heard but nothing to important to scuff out the sound of main creature's howling.

They have that 2 year TimeSkip. He gets super good at getting places. Anyway, Fortunately enough, the sound was coming from the grasslands, which is where Neo was heading for the exact purpose of finding some animals to train. Perhaps a small ranch in the grasslands was a good idea as well, but considering he was gonna work 'for' Yvette, he would need to move it later. What a pain. Anyway, Neo short out from the tree's and into the grasslands, looking for the source of the howling.
