There's more than one threat facing America right now - not only is it the home of Keijen Blade, who has ascended to godhood and begun summoning an army of dark creatures to his beck and call, apparently, but what's perhaps more insidious: the President has declared all Shadowkind to be suspect as a result, and vowed to try to run anyone from another dimension out of the borders.  While figuring out how to do that, particularly when these new residents basically drop in from the sky sometimes, he's ordered all Shadowkind rounded up in internment camps until the 'crisis' passes.  Some Shadowkind have gone willingly, out of an optimistic hope that it might actually make things go more easily for them, but others have been gathered up from their homes and businesses.  

S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Knights have decided to investigate one of these camps for themselves, in hopes of finding a way to liberate it and make a statement to the government and people, ideally getting these people safely out of the country.  Hasmed and Solace have sent in a small force of Knights to scope out the situation.   They arrive in Wyoming via a stealth jet from S.H.I.E.L.D. that releases them up the road several miles out.  A van waits for them there.

[He pauses and glances up when he hears her voice, a polite smile coming quick as he finishes wrapping his left hand.]

They're enchanted. [That doesn't really explain much, does it?] When I wear them, I can make sure to just knock people out instead of accidentally killing someone.

[impetere]

Oh.

[That's probably a good thing to have. She pauses before popping her claws out.]

I guess that's useful if you can't turn the deadly parts on and off.

[And with that, they go back in again.]

[Clark's eyes widen a bit, because that's a new one for him.]

Wow. Uh, yeah- I'm pretty strictly a punching kind of guy. [I guess in theory he could kick? But when you can just stand in one spot, take the hits, then wallop someone with your fist, that sort of becomes the default setting.]

Have you always been able to do that?

[impetere]

Since I was eight.

[Which might as well have been her entire life.]

I'm a werewolf. I was born one.

[theblur]

[Werewolves are a new one for Clark. It makes sense with the claws, but he's still processing a bit.]

I'm guessing the full moon thing isn't as important as the stories lead us to believe?

[impetere]

Oh, no, it is. I've just has a lot of time to learn how to control it.

[That and it's easier for born wolves on top of that.]
