Rachel croaked her thinks and then smiled. "You wouldn't have by any chance, grabbed a necklace before you shifted, would you?" She asked him, hoping he did.
She had a necklace that she wore when ever she wanted to shift. It was her source of power. That's why she hadn't been able to shift or breathe or find energy to do anything.
When one held the necklace they felt the power in it and it was hard to resist the tempatition. It was like Smeagel in Lord of the Rings with the ring all to himself. He could never resist the urdge the ring and it's power had on him.
One could try to resist, but only the holder knew of its actual power. Only the holder was the only one who wasn't tempted by its power. The bearer of the ring; the maker; the owner, was the only one that didn't feel the power surge.
Once Rachel's old boyfriend had picked up the necklace and had hit her because he wanted the power. He wanted to crush it and have Rachel's power to himself. He couldn't resist it's power, but then regretted it. Rachel has never spoke to him since that night. She has never seen him since that night, but she always feared what would happen if he sould return.
Anyhoo, the power of the ring was so great all you felt like doing was holding i and or keeping it and staring at it. You could do nothing else. But if you wanted the power, you would either have to crush it with a stone from Moramad, the sacrad town of Artemis, or it haas to be crushed by the forger's, or, the maker's, true love.

Uli tilted his head to scare her and then smiled and jumped off the couch and trotted into the other room and fetched the blue pegasus necklace from his counter and walked back and and handed it to her. He had grabbed it from the sand when he was walking to the trail. He remembered her conection with it and grabbed it before the surf could take it.
Yeah, here I found it by the tides and snatched it up before it could be eaten by the waves. I knew how much you loved it, so yeah I grabbed it for ya. Mine never fell off my neck, even when my cloths did...
He shuddered, he wouldn't mention the fact he had to drive home butt naked. In a leather car. Which had been very uncomfortable, he would have rather driven shifted then like that, but cops would have thrown a fit over the scene and he didn't feel like being chased by the popo with rachel in the back.

Rachel smiled and took the necklace from him. She automatically restored to her usual pale face and all of her wounds she got from scraping the sand at the bottom of the shore suddenly turned into scars or were completely earased. "Thanks," She smiled again.
She fastened it aroundher neck and as soon as it was snapped it stung her neck again.
"You know I can fix that clothing problem, right?" Rachel told him.
Rachel just then had something dawn on her. She just remembered something about her necklace that may be the same for Uli. She didn't know, but there was only one way to find out. SHe would wait to see if he asked about the necklace again.

Uli grimaced as the necklace burned him again. He shook his head and rubbed his chest, it was bare but he had managed to put jeans on. He felt it fade and rubbed his chest.
Ow.. whats with this thing? and how? I always seem to struggle with cloths when I shift, it's why I have to buy new cloths like once a week. I don't have anymore shirts, as you can tell...
He rubbed his chest again to impasize the point he was making. He took a seat on the arm of the chair and he sighed fingering the red X hanging on the string. He toyed with it a bit then looked back up to Rachel.
Hey, just curious have you ever been in another relationship? You never told me if you had, I told you more then my fair share...
He shrugged as he asked her and ran his hand through his hair, it was all dry now. She knew alot about him, everything he knew for himself, secrets weren't something he looked forward to keeping, and so he usually never did unless he was asked to. Ahe knwe about his son, obviously he wasn't virgin and obviously he had been in another relationship, what about her?

"Well, all you have to do is know a few tricks.... And I think I know why it stings.... Its a symbol of power. You know how Zues is suposed to have a lightning bolt or rod, Hades has a helm or cloak, poseidon has a triton, and so on, so forth. Well, I think this is our's. Because this neccklace, has all my power in it. When I don't have it on, I lose straength. You can choose wether to put all of your power, a little of it, or none into that necklace..." She said as she nodded towards the necklace Uli had on.
"As for the boyfriend part and all.... Yes.. I have been in other relationships, but most only lasted a couple weaks......" Rachel told him. "I once had a boyfriend that tried to take my necklace because he felt the power inside it. He hit me whne I told him to give it back... I just fear the day that he comes back. I haven't seen him since the night he hit me. He tried to kill me that night. What else could I do besides run? More then likely nothing. He was smart and knew people in high places. I knew he would track me down sooner or later...." Rachel paused.. SHe remembered a few things about him, but she wasn't really sure she should tell him or not. Rachel could feel when he entered a boundary line like a boundary to the state or county she was in. Usually it was by city, but it was sometimes state.
"He'll come to get me soon, you know, he'll try to kill me..." Rachel shut her eyes as she remembered the night...
"I think it'll be easy if I just show you..." She told him as she sast on her knees. She put one finger on his forehead and ten her other hand over his heart.
Rachel showed him everything that went on that night. Everything he did, everything she did. Everything.
Rachel, when she was done, pulled back her hands from him and saat back against the couch. "Understand now?" She asked him. She had put her hands up to him before he had anytime to protest, but now he could speak. He saw what went on that night, and he could speak freely about it. rachel felt muhch better now that she had told him, but also, didn't feel all that great about telling him. But she didn't want to have any secrets from him. Hopefully he didn't have any from her either.
