Amanda was glad Jack didn't confirm or deny her accusation about Hunter. She really would find a way to track him down and hurt the wolf if she knew for a fact that he was watching her. Once she'd made up her mind, it was really hard to convince her to do something else, and right now she probably needed to get used to her new state of being before she was able to forget about her desire to really hurt the girl. It was almost as if her emotions had been enhanced alongside everything else, turning anger into rage in a heartbeat.
It hurt not to be able to spend time with her daughter as often as she should. She'd just been allowed to spend a day with her before this all had happened and now she wouldn't be allowed to be alone with her until she had control again. Seeing her daughter reach out like that and start to fuzz when Amanda didn't pick her up made her stop caring about whether or not Jack or her mom would like it and she sat down by the play pen and lifted her daughter out of it.
At first, she'd been worried about holding her daughter again, what if she didn't calm down? What if she just kept fuzzing? It was unnecessary to worry though, Kailah calmed right down and calmed Amanda down at the same time. Her mother seemed to be OK with her holding Kailah now that they were all together, even if she wouldn't take her eyes off her girls. It was time for them to leave though, Jack really needed to get some rest and Kailah seemed to know her grandmother was taking her and ran over to Marie, reaching out to be picked up again. Marie understood the importance of Jack being well rested, especially with Amanda's change, so she quickly packed a bag for Kailah and left to keep Kailah busy all day.
"You wouldn't be able to get rested if I stay, Jack," Amanda started and got back on her feet. "I'm too restless to just sit still. If you don't think I should go in to town, I won't, but do you think maybe Valerie and I can continue where we left off with training?" She needed something to do to burn away some of that restlessness, and Valerie would be more than capable of keeping up with her now that she didn't have her magic back yet.

He heard among Amanda pick Kailah out from the playpen and kept his ears on high alert. He didn't lift up his head, just resting his eyes till everyone left, then he would go.and get some real sleep. He heard.Marie packing a bag for Kailah and then left. He picked his head up at Amandas question. He would prefer Hunter to train.Amanda, but guess Valerie would be fine. He would have to tell the wolf that she need to keep Amanda away from the cabin.
"That's fine, I need to speak to Valerie anyway so bring her here if you don't mind." He said. He had his own way poof calling his pack, but he would let Amanda do it since the two girls seen to be close.

Maybe this change would be best for everyone in the long run; Amanda would be able to understand both Jack and her daughter much better now than she ever would have been able to otherwise. Not that she'd reached that conclusion yet, she was still upset about it all. She wasn't really interested in learning how to deal with the wolf things just yet, she knew she needed to be calm in order to learn something useful.
When she was told she could train with Valerie, she didn't hesitate to call the she-wolf. Apparently Valerie had stayed in town over night as she said she'd be there in a few minutes rather than the usual half hour that it took for her to drive from the Quarters. It wasn't that Amanda didn't trust Hunter to be able to help, it was just that she didn't really know him that well, so she was glad that Valerie was nice to her.
When Valerie finally arrive, Amanda let her in before she stepped outside for a cigarette so the two of them could talk more or less in private.
"She seems to be doing alright, all things considered..." Valerie said, a bit uncertain as to why Jack had needed to talk to her. The brunette had never trained someone so fresh before, if that was what they were expecting she'd be the first to admit she was in over her head.

He waited for Valerie to get there and once the she-wolf did, he heard Amanda go outside to give them some privacy. He stood up now, running a hand through his hair and rubbed his tired eyes. "Yeah she is...but the wolf that had attacked her, I brought her in and shes locked up in my cabin, don't bring Amanda around there or near there and if she smells her, then you need to contact me or Hunter if she tries anything." He said.
He looked at Valerie, being absolutely serious about the whole thing. Candice is more vulnerable now to being attacked and if she was attacked then surely she would be wounded or killed, she was weakened by not eating.

Valerie was concerned when Jack said they had the wolf that had attacked them and that she was to keep Amanda away from the cabin. "If she gets it in her mind that she wants to go to your cabin, magic or not you know there's no way of stopping her. She didn't call me to learn how to be a werewolf, Jack, she wants to learn how to fight. Can't we just ask Hunter to come along to be on the safe side?"
The brunette understood the seriousness of the situation. When she hadn't been able to pick up a scent on the werewolf that had attacked them the night before, she highly doubted that newbie-wolf Amanda would be able to do so. Still, she didn't want to risk anything because she knew she might not be able to stop Amanda from getting hurt again if she wasn't careful.
"I've never dealt with someone so newly turned, I need Hunter there for that anyway."

He just ran a hand through his hair, having a bad feeling that was the reason why Amanda wanted to call Valerie was to learn how to fight so she could get back at Candice for turning her. It would never end with this, it was like a vicious cycle. "Okay...I'll call Hunter and tell him to meet you two here, so don't go anywhere till he arrives." He said.
He looked up at Valerie, seeing the uncertainty in her face. "Well guess its high time you learn then isn't it." He said.

Valerie's main concern wasn't that Amanda wanted to learn how to fight, it was rather if the fighting got out of hand and she wound up shifting that she'd have a problem. She didn't even know if the blonde could shift, or what was the deal with that, but they needed to be extra careful with the training from now on so she didn't lose control. "We'll wait right outside for him, I really don't want to keep you longer than needed."
People were prone to making mistakes when they were tired and Valerie couldn't exactly say she'd gotten too much sleep the night before herself either, but it seemed to be more than Jack. Then again, she hadn't been the one to sort out Amanda the night before, she'd just been worried about what Jack would do to her for failing to keep the witch safe while they were out in the woods training.
"Only fresh wolves we've ever gotten in the Order, are the ones born into it when they first come into their heritage. It'll be good to learn how to tackle a newly turned wolf." She smiled slightly at Jack and excused herself before she joined Amanda outside. The last thing she wanted right now was to leave Amanda alone for too long as the blonde might get some ideas of her own. "I need Hunter to help me with something today, so as soon as he arrives, we can go," she said and pulled out a cigarette of her own. It did seem like they would work hard that day though as the blonde gave of a very restless feeling.

He would have commented, but just gave a wave of his hand and headed to bed once Valerie left to go outside with Amanda. Hunter arrived 15 minutes later, not even bothering to go inside. He knew that Jack was touted and didn't want to brother him. He headed to the porch."How are you doing, Amanda." He asked, leaning again the fence.
He knew that Jack didn't want him to have Amanda find Candance and would make sure that she didn't find the locked up wolf."Well, let's, getting going shall we."He said.

Amanda hadn't wanted Hunter's help, but when Valerie put it like that, she couldn't really refuse. She knew Jack wasn't too fond of her learning to fight, especially not after this until she had things under control, and she had a feeling Hunter would step in and stop her if things got too serious, but it seemed she had very little choice in the matter.
The girls sat outside, talking until Hunter arrived, making a plan for what they would work on to exhaust Amanda properly so she wouldn't be a pain later on. So once Hunter arrived, the former witch was actually in quite a good mood for the first time all day. "I would be doing a lot better if everyone stopped asking so often," she offered with a slight shrug. "I've been worse," she said honestly, feeling it was unfair of her to take her frustration out on an innocent bystander. Especially when he was so important for the pack and learning how to deal with the whole wolf thing apparently.
"You're the most familiar with the woods out of the three of us Hunter, lead the way," she said, fully aware that they were all hiding something from her. Valerie didn't need Hunter to teach her how to fight, there was another reason why Hunter was coming along, but she was past caring. Right now she just needed to burn some energy or she might just lose it completely.

Hunter didn't take the somewhat rude and annoyed comment to heart and merely smiled. He knew she had top be frustrated that this was happening, not to mention all the questions. He only nodded and lead them to the woods, coming to a small clearing that was surrounded by trees and brush, it was like a private arena. "Here we are." He said, stepping to the side and let the two female have a look around.
"So what exactly do you want to.know first?" He asked.

She knew it was foolish and selfish of her really, but she didn't want to learn how to be a werewolf. She wasn't ready to accept that this was her life now, she'd rather just get her anger and frustration out. There was nothing else she could do but to get a grip and fast, otherwise she knew damn well that there was no chance in hell she'd be allowed near her daughter and that was just plain unacceptable.
The place Hunter had brought them was perfect. It was far enough into the woods that she'd get lost if she tried to leave, and far enough away from anywhere she knew for her to be able to find her way by lay of the land. Especially since her abilities as far as finding her way had always relied on magic. Without it she was completely lost with no sense of direction.
"What do you expect of me?" she asked, determined to do her best to live her life like nothing had happened. She didn't ask for any of it, and she would find a way to get around the whole wolf thing. If there was one thing she wasn't looking forward to, it was the full moon. Would she be forced to turn, would she even be able to? Considering she wasn't just a wolf, no one of the wolves had even broached the subject yet and honestly she didn't want to know. Not until she absolutely had to.
While she was looking at Hunter, she wasn't paying attention to Valerie and she really wasn't aware of what the brunette was planning until she instinctively moved out of the way as the other tried to knock her to the ground. Valerie kept her footing though and grinned at Amanda. "This is going to be much more fun."

He smirked when Amanda dodged the attack."I dont expect anything from you, I know jack does and I know he expects you to be in control." He said with a smile. He was really their as a supervisor, nothing more and.nothing less. He had hoped this little training would go smoothly without any distractions our surprises that seem to happen alot. He leaned against the tree, watching the two females go at .

So Hunter was there to watch and report back to Jack more or less, that's what she got from his answer. She wasn't too happy about his answer though, and growled slightly at him. "Screw Jack and his principles. He's your alpha, not mine." She knew it was unfair to both the two wolves present and Jack, but she had absolutely no interest in pack life or following Jack's orders.
It served her purpose though as Valerie seemed more determined than ever to teach her a lesson and she got what she needed. They exchanged blows and didn't really stop until Valerie had the blonde pinned down on the ground. She was sitting on top of her, her foot resting on Amanda's throat. She used her hands to hold Amanda's hands down and smiled at the witch. "You'll need to control that anger, sweetheart. It'll get you killed if you're not careful. Without your magic, you're out of your element, but with it you'd likely burn the city to the ground if you lost control."
Amanda growled slightly at how she was treated and pushed to get out from under Valerie. She stopped the moment she felt the foot pressing down on her throat slightly. Amanda might have been more determined than Valerie to win, but in the end, Valerie had been fighting for a lot longer and she was more accustomed to her own strength.

Hunter frowned at Amanda words. "It isn't just Jack that expects you to be in control, that kind of attitude will, get you killed, not to mention Jack will put you in your place and he won't go easy and neither will another supernatural." He added as Valerie gave the blonde witch deserved for just running her mouth. He would watched with interest at the two ladies before stepping imbetween them. "Why did you want to.come out here, you don't want.to.learn.on how being a werewolf so what gives?" He asked. He didn't.have to read Amandas mind, it said all in her body language and.attitude.

Amanda didn't like what they were saying. Deep down, she knew it was the truth, but she wasn't ready to accept that just yet. She hadn't even been given a chance to start accepting the changes happening as she hadn't been left alone for long. "If you'd all just leave me alone, I wouldn't have an attitude," she said angrily.
Valerie finally released her and the blonde got back on her feet, brushing herself off. "Jack doesn't want me to work, mom doesn't want me to see my daughter and Valerie promised she'd teach me to fight. I might as well do something useful to burn some energy since you're all so set on keeping me from that bitch," she replied, itching slightly at the healed mark on her arm. Yet another thing that didn't suit Valerie.
The brunette attacked her again, this time she wasn't pulling any stops and Amanda quickly found himself back on the ground, on her front this time, her arm twisted behind her back. "Careful, sweetie, I don't have to take it easy on you anymore." Looking up at Hunter, she chuckled slightly. "She'll just keep insulting us you know, she doesn't want to know how to be something she doesn't want to be. Do you want a go at her?" With that, she released Amanda yet again and stepped aside.
