Although, as a Jedi Knight, Kahn was supposed to have wisdom, he had no idea what Amalia had in store at Coruscant. Smiling, he shook his head.

"No, Master, I do not. However, I'm assume you will show me soon enough."

She pursed her lips for a split second and then she smiled.

"That you will."

Coruscant was in rather close range now and they would be setting into Coruscant's atmosphere within a matter of minutes.

Amalia laughed suddenly.

"You know, I just thought of something...I have no clue as to how we shall get your present home."

She turned her head slightly to look toward the back of the shuttle.

"I suppose we will manage though..."

She smiled mysteriously.

Kahn raised an eyebrow again, though he kept silent until they had successfully landed on Coruscant. He looked around the city, a place he had been to before, but never failed to be somewhat awed at the sheer size and energy of it. He also couldn't believe an entire planet could consist of one city. He waited for Amalia to exit the shuttle first, having no idea where he was going.

"Just a minute, I have to make room in the back of the shuttle," She said as she made her way to the back of the shuttle, moving varies things around.

She returned to the front of the shuttle a few moments later, checking to see that everything was ok there, then she motioned for Kahn to follow her out of the shuttle.

When they stepped out of the shuttle they were shortly greeting by a warm and pleasant atmosphere, the streets were alive and active with many patrons, this was inceed a very active area.

"Well, normally, if I hadn't been here before, I'd probably be lost. For once though, I actually know where I am going."

She raised her left hand just slightly, and pointed just off to their left, a small distance away.

"You see that building there? That's a storage buidling, that's where your present is being held. So off we go..."

They started off for the buidling, it would take them a little longer than normal to get there because of the area they were in being so active and busy.

Kahn nodded, matching her strong strides with his own. Without trying, the Jedi were able to blend in with the crowd, appearing to loose the bearing that set them apart from others. It was useful when you did not wish to draw attention to yourself, or when you did not want to openly broadcast that you were a Jedi.

"You're making me awefully curious as to what you have planned, Master."

He smiled easily.

"Well, let's wait no longer, hmm?"

She smiled as they stepped into the lot of the building.

'Well, being that it is a gift, I've kept it nice and covered. I've stopped here from time to time, to check up on your gift. I suppose you'll understand why that is when you see your gift."

After a few more strides, the Jedi entered the buidling. Crates upon crates were stored inside the building. Amalia made a slight face as she gestured around.

"No, not the nicest of buildings, but I'm afraid there was no other building your gift could be placed in."

She stopped in front of what appeared to be a large box. A white sheet lay drapped over it.

"Well, I've made you wait long enough, now it is time for your gift."

She stepped forward and slowly raised the white sheet off of the box, revealing a large cage....

Inside the cage lay a wolf, not very big in size, nor neither small. Its fur was of a light grey mixture, it's eyes, light blue. Upon seetting eyes on Kahn, the wolf's eyes seemed to flash gold in color for a small moment, but then returned to its normal shade of blue.

Amalia smiled for a moment, noting now that Kahn had gone silent.

"Old memories, huh? My intent is not to replace what you have lost. I know Ares was very important to you, and he can never be replaced. The times you both have shared will always be remembered..."

She let Kahn be for a moment as she began to open up the cage door, letting the wolf out. She turned back to Kahn as the wolf slowly stepped out of its cage.

"It is a male wolf, however, he is different. He is like you and I..force sensative. He can only communitcate through the mind."

Amalia's words were soon turned factual as the wolf set itself at Kahn's feet. His blue eyes looking up at Kahn, Kahn felt a sudden proding of his own mind, a voice reaching out to him.

Kahn, seeker of goodness, keeper of peace...I have not a name...I was told that you would be the one to give me a name.

Amalia became silent, looking from the wolf to Kahn, and then back again.

Kahn was speechless for a few moments. He had never expected this, not even a hint of it. Ares had been a pet wolf of his when he was a Sith, though the animal had merely been loyal to Kahn, not the Dark Side as well. Ares had died when an attack on TSO's palace caused it to collapse, and Kahn had mourned and moved on. However, he couldn't contain his happiness at having another companion. A smile spread across his face as he looked into the intelligent blue eyes of the wolf. He too spoke through the Force to the carnivore, not bothering to guard against Amalia listening in.

For such a noble creature a noble name is needed. How does Zeus sound? In the primitive times he was believed to be the king of the gods.

While waiting for the wolf to answer, the Knight looked at Amalia for a moment. He didn't have to say anything, his features and expression said it all, showed how much he appreciated the gift and how much he thanked her.

OOC: Can you tell I'm into Greek mythology? :)

ooc: As you should be, 'tis a part of history.:)

ic: Amalia smiled, still remaining silent. She could tell the two were communicating via the force and did not wish to interrupt them.

I am honored, Kahn. It is a fine name, I shall keep it with pride and honor. I hope I will serve you well.

Zeus' eyes flash to the color of gold once more and he reached out with his left paw, procedding to scratch Kahn about his left hand, drawing blood.

Do not be alarmed...

Zeus turned his paw over so that the blood fell onto his fur. Oddly though, upon contact with his fur, it seemed to soak into his own fur.

I am sorry, it is only of a means of bondage, Kahn. It means I belong to you and no one else.

The wolf turned his paw back over and placed it back over Kahn's hand once more. When he withdrew his paw away from Kahn, the blood was gone, including the cut that was there moments before.

The Knight was impressed and surprised at Zeus's ability. He had never known an animal to possess such strong Force abilities. Moreoever, he could sense that the name certainly fit the wolf. He was of pure heart and the Light Side seemed to glow around him. However, such a creature should not "belong" to someone, in Kahn's opinion.

Friends we may be, but own you I do not. You are not meant to be owned as, perhaps, an expensive trinket would be. You are your own being, and I respect that.

He smiled.

However, I would most appreciate it if you decided to become my companion.

The wolf tilted his head to one side, as if perplexed.

Forgive me, Kahn. It is what I am use to. A companion I shall be. I Thank You. Where am I to live?

Amalia suddenly spoke up.

"He is quite an amazing creature, isn't he?"
