The Hunt (closed)

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

She nearly jumped out of her skin when the blur went flying past her, smashing Bill literally to the floor. She wanted to tell them to shut up and leave her alone, let her die in fucking peace, but nothing came from her lips.

Her eyes went to the open door way, a vague thought that if she could just get outside...

To her right a machine began to beep, first one. Then slowly another and another.. Outside the howling began. First low, then lifting, growing louder. She caught sight of another blur moving past her doorway, but she had to be seeing things...

"Terry?" Her brows furrowed as she fought to concentrate, but whatever she had to say died on her lips as again the gray blur moved by her door, only this time it stopped.

It's head was down, his teeth bared as it snarled. Fear was quickly back in her veins, in her mind and giving her some last boost of energy. She straightened up and scooted backwards, only she didn't budge. A wall and trunk were behind her, she had no where to go..

And now? A timber wolf was standing inside her door way... The pack leader? It was unmarked, but the beeping machine meant the rest had entered the perimeter.

She heaved herself to a kneeling position, picking up the rifle as the wolf continued to growl and snap, eyeing her warily as he inched towards Terry and Bill.

 

[poohlive]

Terry howled once more, the loud scream almost like fire in the dark cabin now. He felt the deep fangs going into him, and couldn't bear it. His body and grown so cold, and yet this new visage of pain just accented all the other things that seemed to hurt now... beyond recognition.
But, he couldn't stop, not now. It was cold, his vision was failing, and he could literally hear his heart slowing to a stop, but not yet.
He willed himself to stay alive, long enough to make sure RHyanna was safe.
And there was only one thing left to do now, to make sure that happened.
He crawled over to her, Bill had bucked him off, after a pained bite at one of his legs. He limped now, looking back.
Something jumped on Bill, who screamed in horror, and bit down hard at the wolf.
He could see the others now, and ran outside, to deal with them.
The cabin was so alone now... and all too quiet for what had happened. Outside, almost in another world, cries and screams of pain were echoing out to them.
"Rhy,,," he didn't know when he had started to change back, but here he was, covered in light fur, everything mismatched, slowly feeling weaker and weaker...
It was so cold.
"I need you to do a few things for me, before this gets too far, ok? Don't ask questions, there's not enough time."
He pulle dhimself up to her, between her legs, laying against her, their blood mingling on the floor around them.
"Try not to smell," he said, taking her hand, and holding it close to him, "There's too much, if you do, you'll get distracted."
he kissed it once, slipping to his side, and falling harder than he wanted against her.
Outside, in the now gaping open door, something flew with great power to one of the trees. There was a loud snap, and a weak cry, it laid still after that.
"Don't think. If you think, you'll hesitate, and you'll make a mistake. You can't think, you can't do anything. You have instincts, so many instincts that you don't need to think. Not for this, just let it happen. I don't know what'll happen, but it's a chance... it's all we got."
He leaned up, holding her chin, trying to wipe the blood from her lips. He gave a smile, so weak it looked sad in the darkened shadows. He kissed her, unable to think of any other way to finish this.
"It'll happen quickly, let it happen. Get him, sweetheart. For me... for us. Make him bleed."
Holding her hand, his fangs still lingering inside his mouth, Terry bit into her, hard and deep. He moved his teeth jarring across her flesh, digging into muscle and bone, cutting across a vein, fresh blood pouring into his mouth.
When he let the hand go, he could feel it already vibrating through her, the sight, the smell, the very tension of knowing one of your own is close by.
After a long cry, a huge figure showed through the gape in the hole.
"Now..." he cried, the words cold and foreign in his wolfish mouth, "Where were we?"
Terry didn't have the strength to say it... but it was screaming in his mind.
Get him.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

"Please.. Please-e do-don't die!" She grabbed at him, tugging with all her might.. what little remained. "Don't die. Don't leave me." She whimpered like a baby, afraid of so many things, but mostly him dying on her.
He said something, but she was shaking her head, not caring what he said about smells. She gripped him tighter, pulling him towards her where his lips hit hers and a rushed kiss came. She cried all the harder, knowing he was slipping through her fingers. "...Get him, sweetheart. For me... for us. Make him bleed." His words whispered past her lips as he bent over her and sank his teeth into her shoulder.

She cried out then, astonished he would bite her. She didn't think he'd ever do that! Never thought he would... Her world tilted a little as pain hit her full force.. pain worse than any of her wounds combined could give her. She gasped for air but could not draw any into her lungs.

Panic rose up as things began to shift in her vision, straightening, becoming brighter.
"Ter.." She couldn't speak and he couldn't really hear as he sank down against the floor.. had he given up? Was he just resting?

She began to feel a hum inside, her bones snapped as well. She cried out again, shaking from head to toe. With wide eyes she watched as hair prung out all over her body, she could literally feel the gouges in her back closing together.. That hurt as badly as when Bill ripped them apart!

She grit her teeth tightly, falling in a graceless heap to her side. She curled into a ball, fighting whatever pain she could.. but how would she do that?
"Get him.." It rang in her mind, something else too.. he said .. he said.. "To let it happen." It was then she knew and understood. He made her into one of them.
Pain took her again, she could see Bill coming back into the cabin, he looked shaken, bloody but grinning. His lips moved but she didn't understand what was said.. It was if sound had been turned off outside of her own body's changing.

It took her over quickly, snapping and bending her, hair sprung, her muscles seemed to grow slightly, bunched painfully together. When next she opened her eyes, Bill was screaming something at her but not coming closer, her face felt furry now, her teeth began to throb and grow as well.. Her nose itched then burned as her face elongated...

"NO! You fucking bastard!" Bill was pissed, not hesitating to kick Terry in the ribs as Bill reached down and yanked Rhyanna to her feet.. paws..
"It won't fucking save you, bitch!" He spat in her face, his own teeth coming towards her throat.
From somewhere in reserve.. She sure as hell should have been dead by now!.. but some where in reserve, she got strength.. She got pissed and she pushed him off of her, not stopping until she swiped her own claws over his torso.

He lept backwards, hissing and spitting in anger as his hand clenched over his chest. She kept changing, sinking lower to the floor, coming down on four legs instead of hands and knees.. Outside those remaining wolves left alive were beginning to regroup for a second attack..

 

[poohlive]

It took a few seconds for Bill to quite understand what had happened. He looked confused, unsure, but things slowly moved into focus. Terry laid down, had done the only thing he could do, and now, here she was, ready to go for round two.
This time, she was ready to fight, not so much a willing spirit anymore. Pity, Bill spat out a mixture of blood and saliva on the ground.
She wanted to play, then they should play.
He circled her, his massive body nearly overpowering hers. She had those large eyes at him, growling, snapping, snarling. It felt erotic, almost like a dance between them. Something made a cool shiver go down Bill's spine.
He leapt at her, going for her back, trying to pounce her down in one sweep. He thought for a moment she was going to be all bark, and no bite. He could use an easy enough move and take care of what was left of her.
She didn't know anything about fighting, about her strength, this would be a shorter fight than even he cared for.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

He moved to pounce and she instantly recoiled, pulling her ass out of his way and rolling as she went. She came up to all fours and jumped on him herself. Her weight wasn't much against his, but she managed to sink her teeth into his shoulder before he threw her off.

She turned back, hairs raised, teeth bared, snarling with the lust for death.. his. She sank slightly towards the floor, her feet apart, ready to spring yet again. She'd get him.. Piece by piece.. then she'd eat his innards!

A wild lust for blood she had never experienced before, a craving so devine, so sweet.. She wanted more. She licked up a blood strand of drool from her chops, smacking her lips together, sniffing slightly, scenting more where that came from..

She could see the wound at his neck.. The pack leader had gotten a piece of him, but didn't take him down.. If she could just get him in the same spot...

 

[poohlive]

He could feel whatever hold he had of this situation slipping. No, it couldn't be. He had won, fought, shot, and raped his way just to be here, and now... now he was losing?
That couldn't be. This simple bitch, this fucking cunt couldn't deny him what he relished for so sweetly. He needed to see her blood flood the ground, see what was left of her be drug outside, and left for whatever scavengers felt her carcass edible.
In a slow, desperate attempt, he leaned right, and bit down as hard as he could on one of her legs.
He felt the sensation of blood, the ripping of muscles, and the joyous sound of bone, creaking, and beginning to snap under his strength.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

She howled as the pain seized her yet again. Snarling, she thrust her body in half and turned on him, biting down onto his neck. With quick jerks she whipped her head back and forth, pulling out fur and sinking through skin.

He howled with pain but held his bite on her leg, she yanked on him and it only tore more of her leg open.. Still she wasn't going to let up!

He yanked on her leg, trying to drop her to the floor, her bone threatening to snap, her skin and muscle peeling slightly on her leg.. She let go quickly, only to snap down down on his mangled neck and shoulder. She bit as hard as she could, forcing her teeth deeper...

 

[poohlive]

Bill could feel his grip loosing. She had him, it hurt, pained ripped through him. He'd struggled to hold on, but try as he might, hard as he pressed, it was just her leg.
He could snap it off, but she'd still have him.
In his last, final desperate attempt, Bill let go, and latched onto her own throat. He sunk in deep, sharp teeth gripping so many important pieces, her breath, arteries, blood and skin. He would rip them all out, in one failed swoop, even if it was the last thing he did.
He felt a stand still, between them. As if, they were somehow locked together, and he understood. This was her soul mate. This was the one woman he had been dreaming of, for so long, here with him, and they would die together.
As a family.
He smiled, preparing to pull away her very life.
And, that's when he felt the cold black steel of a barrel against the back of his gun.
Terry stood, human, naked, bleeding, coughing, sputtering, his legs about to buckle, barely able to hold his weight, the gun shaking in his hand, held only by the fact that it was presseing against the back of the beast's neck.
"Get your fucking hands off my bitch," He said, blood droplets flying from his teeth, as he pulled the trigger.
Several things happened, of which were all important, yet, none of them seem to go in any particular order. The gun shot straight up, landing in some other room, the barrel smoking, had pieces of brain and fur land on it.
Terry shot back, sliding on his own blood, ending up at the far end of the room, crying out a weak attempt to stop the fresh bout of pain hollaring through him.
And Bill, the once beloved man of Colleen and Dominic Favren, who used to spend weekends with his grandmother, eating cookies and watching police chases on the television, who loved the taste of blood so much, and the feel of flesh, who tried so desperately to fall in love with a woman he had never seen except in the shadows of dreams as he chased her down.
This Bill, who had finally found true love in the one woman strong enough to kill him, who wanted so badly to have them end it in a quiet peaceful way, holding each other, as beasts of burden.
Yes, this Bill's head splattered like a ripe watermelon on concrete. Red, black, gray and even pieces of white bone all covered the already deviled and demolished cabin.
Terry gave a small laugh, seeing the headless wolf body move one way, then the other, and even step for a moment, as if it wanted to walk out the door... before it fell in a lifeless heap.
"I win," He whispered, on quivering lips.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

She struggled to tear out his throat, her smaller build however made it impossible, and his longer reach enabled him to clamp onto her neck.

There were no thoughts of self preservation in her mind, Just the fact that Bill's blood was seeping into her mouth and there for.. he was dying.

She whined only a moment when his teeth sank into her flesh, but managed to growl and use that anger and pain against him. She pressed harder, tearing even deeper, hitting against bone.

And then all was still. Eerrily so. He didn't move, he didn't apply more pressure, he stared at her, she could feel it. As for her thoughts, she just wanted blood.. more blood. Enough to confirm he was dead.

Then Bill tensed, his mouth slackening as her blood dripped onto the floor. A loud gun shot went off so near her head, her ears stung from the noise, her body again leaping away as brain matter splattered in a wide arc around them.

She caught sight of Terry as she sank to the floor. Slowly she began to change, and even though it was painful, it was not painful enough to wash away what pain she already felt in her neck.

She got slowly to her feet, her arm was broken, her neck felt raw with the puncture wounds, and an over all weakness, but she was whole. She had healed some what with the change.. But Terry on the other hand was far worse..

She moved slowly across the room, stopping by his side to kneel down and meet his eyes. "I love you." She didn't smile, she couldn't make those muscles move, but she meant it whole heartedly. "So don't you fuckin' die on me..." She moved away from him, going towards her 'op room' to find what she needed.
She grabbed a make shift splint and wrapped her arm, rather shitty to look at, but it would hold for now.

She grabbed some blood and an IV hook up, making quick work of hooking Terry up to it once again. She sat for a moment, she had to call 911, but first she had something to do..

She leaned forward, bracing herself on her good arm and kissed him deep and hard. Tears began to fall but she didn't cave in, she backed off, nodding her head in response to some silent push, "hang on Terry.. I'm calling for help.."

She didn't care much for modesty, she just grabbed the phone, called and hung up.. Crawling back to him, she sat beside him, resting against the hard wood of something she didn't care to identify to wait it out..

An Ambulance would be there soon and they'd be taken care of.. And the Sheriff had his wolf.. Bill never changed back into human form once he died...

 

[poohlive]

"You know what I want," He reached out for her, and helped her sink beside him, holding her despite all of the blood and guts and gore around them. IT might have even been romantic given other circumstances.
His voice was shaky, and hardly as loud as it once had been when they first met. He gave a small smile, wiping away brain matter from her forehead before kissing it.
"I want to live happily ever after. You know, all of those movies. The ones where the prince always comes in at the last moment, and saves the princess. He sweeps her off her feet, and... they always live happily ever after."
She felt so warm next to him, which made him feel all the colder. It hurt to have her so close, but he wouldn't let go. Not now... not until there was nothing left to hold onto.
"For once... I'd like to live happily ever after."
He went into a coughing fit, as blood laced with tiny bubbles spit down his mouth, and laid next to all the other blood on the floor. There seemed to be a whole inch of it, just covering everything.
He tried to smile, thinking of the cleaning bill, but he couldn't...

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

"You have a punctured lung." Her voice was uneven and fearful as her hand covered his side.
"I want that too Terry.." She whispered as she looked into his tired face. "So let's do it.." She gave a watery smile and grabbed a shirt.
"Help me rip this into strips!" She held part of the shirt but didn't have use of her other arm. "I need to bind these.. just please wait, talk to me. Tell me about your home.. Tell me about .. your life.. Anything." She listened with one ear for the sound of the ambulance. They would have a breather machine, they'd be able to keep him alive, surgery would fix him right up.
"You.." She laughed which boardered on paniced hysterical sobs, "You called me your bitch.. Remember?" She got a smile for that one and felt a little better, now to keep him with her.
She squeezed the IV bag, trying to get the blood into his body faster, keep him filled up.

She left him only for a second and only to get to her couch. She wouldn't take her eyes off him, she couldn't! She grabbed a blanket from the back and threw it over him, helping to keep him warm.. Active enough, but not too much.
"Tell me what our life will be like.." She urged him.

 

[poohlive]

"We'll live in a house... a big house. Yellow, I'll want it to be brown, but you'll want it yellow. You get your way, you always get your way," He laughed, which turned into a weak series of coughs.
It took him a long time before he spoke again, and it was gravelly and rough, desperate.
"We'll have some cubs, little ones, who'll always run around and get in trouble. You'll be my bitch... my wonderful bitch, and I'll be your bastard. We'll have the exact opposite of a normal life, and we'll love every minute of it. We can go off and run together, in the woods, for hours and hours. There's so much to show you."
He couldn't see out of his eyes anymore, the light, just refused to enter. He closed them, opened them, but nothing came except trails fo darkness.
"We'll live..."
He reached out for her, but he couldn't feel his hand come up anymore, it was numb, or gone, or both. Maybe he wasn't even grasping for her, maybe he was just trying. It seemed to take as much effort either way.
"... happily..."
he let his head nod down, against his chest, it felt more comfortable there, more relaxed. Far off, he thought he could hear sirens in his head, wolves, maybe, but he didn't recognize it. Instinctually, he wanted to call out, answer that lonely cry on the mountain. We're all here, feeling pain too. I know...
He gave a wink, to no one in paticular.

" ... after ... "

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

"Terry?" His grip went slack, his head resting limply against his chest.
"TERRY!?" She grabbed him, shaking him. Her wide eyes went to his neck, looking for a pulse. Then her hand.. She counted.. And counted..
"Oh Jesus! Don't do this to me now.." She bit back a sob, then her face twisted into anger. "DON'T YOU DO THIS TO ME NOW!" She hit him, more correctly, she hit his heart, bent forward and pushed air into his lungs.
"Damn you!" She muttered, inhaled and pushed more air into his lungs.
He wasn't breathing.. His heart was slowing. She knew she should let him go, he earned it..
"FUCK YOU!" She shouted at Death, at Terry.

The Sirens were louder, out side.. They were coming.
"HURRY!" She yelled with all her might at the doorway. Turning back, she pulled him down to the floor, administering CPR.

It took a moment to realize paramedics were there, unloading their stuff and pouring in through the door.
What had she said to them?!
She couldn't even fucking remember what she said, but they were there! Her white knights..
"He has a punctured lung.. he.. he isn't breathing.." They pulled her back aside, throwing a blanket over her nudity and trying to lay her down, check for wounds. But she leapt forward, wanting.. No NEEDING to return to Terry, give him CPR..

The paramedics worked together, hitting him with their machines, getting his heart beating more regularly. Forcing a tube down his throat, someone was breathing for him..

They were carting him out the door on a stretcher, voices blurred together, panicking she tried to crawl on the gurney with him but was pulled off and strapped down to a matching bed.

Her eyes never left his, the entire ride, she watched the entire time they worked on him until emergency doors separated them into different stations.. But she could hear them, she could hear it all.. They were saving him!
She fell back, letting the doctors do whatever they wanted to her, listening carefully for confirmation.


She sat at his bedside, as she had done since he came out of surgery, waiting for him to wake up. Her hand held his, her fingers lightly stroking over his knuckles, lost in thought.

 

[poohlive]

Terry grabbed at Rhy's fingers, giving them a weak squeeze as he finally woke up. It seemed so hard to shift through the sudden layers of drugs and pain, and unconscious thoughts. The loud blaring lights and the hospital smell of iodine and pain came up to him all too harsh.
"Rhy," he said, his voice scratchy and gravelly, he could feel tubes and needles in him, pouring out, checking, loading. It unnerved him to no end, but he had neither the strength, nor the will to do anything about it.
"You're here," He smiled up at her, noting more than a fuzzy shape in his vision, but he could smell her well enough. Lavender, and medicince, but always lavender.
"I missed you," he squeezed her hand yet again.
"How bad is it? I don't feel like I can move very much. What do the doctors say, they didn't take a lot of blood work did they?"
He couldn't let that happen, things were devastating as it is already, he could just imagine what they would find... and what they might do.
His mind went back to that cabin, and suddenly he knew that time wasn't on their side.
He had something he needed to do, still.
But... even as he tried to move just a bit, to his side, he knew it was useless. Pain, and medicine would make just going to the bathroom like running a gauntlet. That cabin? It's just ridiculous.
"Hun.... hun..."

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

Her smile was soft, understanding. He was worried and no one could find fault in that fear.

"You're fine hun.. You just need some time to heal is all." She patted his hand, then kissed the back of it, adding a gentle squeeze. She'd be here with him, she would watch over him and make sure nothing bad happened.

"I told them you had some religious thing and they couldn't draw blood from you.. I also paid a kid to burn the saturated bloody stuff from your surgery. It's taken care of.. no worries." She stood up quietly and moved closer.

If he sought comfort, she'd give that as well. She wasn't about to let him out of her sight again, not for awhile anyway! Definitely not after this miserable day.

Surprising she was healing, and quickly. Her arm had been broken by Bill, but Xray's showed she merely had bruised bones, muscles and a little sprain in her wrist. She never mentioned the rape and didn't plan on it, she checked herself privately and found no evidence of the damage Bill had done to her.

But they weren't out of it yet, she wouldn't feel safe until they were at her home again, just the two of them and alone!

"Hun... Hun..?" He was trying to get her attention, his eyes looked troubled.. What was he worried about now? Had she forgotten something?
"Yes?"

 

[poohlive]

He looked at her with such surprise and delight. She had been good, better than even him. Her mind seemed so sharp, picking up things he could never have seen. That's why he needed her to do this, it was very important.
"Tonight... a lot of things are going to happen tonight, in just a few hours, and you need to be quick. Before..."
He stopped talking as a nurse passed.
"Before anyone else finds out."
He gave her ak nowing wink.
"First, go get some cheap strong perfume, wear it all over. You need to hideyour scent. Too many people can smell what you are now... they mustn't. Not tonight... soon, but not now. It's important. It's gonna stink like you're covering in shit, but that's the best thing right now.
"You got rid of all the blood here, and that's so great hun. But there's more. Back in the cabin, it's literally covered with all our blood. If you can clean it... ok, but do something, burn it down, blow it up. No one can take samples, nothing. The body must already be gone, we can't do anything about that now... but with any luck, it'll die with Bill. We can just get rid of any of our trails, and move on."
He pushed himself up, holding the back of her neck, and kissing her.
"We can still have a happy ending... I promise you."
He gave a weak smile.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

"I don't understand? Why am I doing .. going to blow up my home?" She was confused, a little more than normally. Why did they have to run? And from what?!
Was it the medications given to him or was he always this paranoid? She kept her voice low, hearing no one or nothing moving near enough to over-hear them, but couldn't be completely sure of anything any more.
She grabbed his hand, patting it and gave him a weak smile, "Really Terry.. Relax. It'll be ok love." She wasn't trying to be difficult, she just had to have a real reason to destroy something that's been her home all her life.
Would they check out a wolf though? Who heard of doing blood work on a wild animal, most were burned instantly to keep diseae from spreading.. But then again, Chris had been killed, they just might. Was there a real fear of hunters? She was a little confused, not knowing that she might have to give up her entire life for this one 'gift' be bestowed on her.
"Alright. Fine." She said it softly, but she was going to hate to do this. "I need to gather a few things, get the truck.. Ok. I see your reasoning behind this." She stood up, running a nervous hand through her hair, eyeing him carefully.
"I feel an "and" in there.. What else do I have to do Terry?" She could read it in his eyes, body language as well.. There was alot more he wanted her to do.

 

[poohlive]

"They can't know... they mustn't know. You're a bigger threat than even I am at the moment..."
He shook his head, trying to clear the fog that was wrapping around his mind. It came in droves now, as the medicine worked to take him back to sleep.
"Be fast, whatever you do. Run, don't stay anywhere for too long. You can't be found out... too many people can't know. Too many people are your enemy already."
He wanted to say more, even explain himself, but he had dropped into a fitless sleep, where he told the Rhyanna in his dreams all the fears and warnings that he should have.
Things would never be the same after tonight.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

"Don't worry." She bent over him, kissed his forehead and vanished out the window. It was a small hospital but they still had cameras at all the exits. It was best not to be seen leaving.

She ran under the cover of the darkest shadows, reaching the woods and changing there. She was only a few miles from home, and as she raced to get there, she wondered if she really could do as he asked?

She paused outside her home, listening, sniffing the air for intruders and found no recent scents lingering. Changing forms again, she ran naked into her home.

The mess was worse than she remembered it, the stench of the rotting brain matter made her nose crinkle up in distaste. He was right though, she couldn't clean this up, it wasn't possible to do so.

Gathering her suitcases and dufflebags, she packed everything important to her and some clothes. She loaded up her truck bed with everything she wanted to keep, everything not coated in blood.

Standing still as death, she stared at her home, the only real home she'd known for so many years. She had to do it, there was no other choice. And she had to vanish as well.

Taking the two gas cans from her shed, she set Bride free and then started coating the inside of her home with the flamable liquid. Tears ran their course as her match struck the folded book.
"Good bye.." She tossed the match against the wall with the most blood on it and quickly left.

Dressed in her dark clothing, she started her truck and took a back road through the woods towards the Hospital. By the time she was almost there she heard the sirens start up. The volunteer firefighters were now in motion...

She parked behind a dumpster in the alley, sneaking back into Terry's room.
"We've got to go." She tossed some clothing onto the bed, hunting through everything in the room as she went. "We'll need bandages and tape.. I have a few things from .. my office." She sniffled a little, she was going to miss this place.

 

[poohlive]

It was being forcfully woken up that hurt him so, torn from the good drugs and dreams that circled him in the deep subconscious. He had almost relished in it, was almost happy before he woke to the pain and excitement of Rhyanna in the room, walking around like a mad woman.
"Go?" He didn't understand, clothing at his side, "Go where? Rhy, what happened? Is something wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost... did, did things go ok?"
He tried to wipe the sleep from his eyes, as well as his mind, only using one hand though. The other was bandaged up pretty good, and he felt that even in this drugged stupor, he would feel hot iron of pain if he moved it.
She wanted them to leave, just now? There would be so many questions, questions he didn't want to answer.
"Calm down, sit down. What is wrong, talk to me, hun."

 

[Sweetp4u]

Rhyanna

She flopped down in the chair at his bedside, her face mere inches from his own as her eyes bored into his.

"The wolf's body.." She gulped down the rising lump and leaned closer to whisper, "Bill's body is gone.. The house is burning right now... It'll burn completely.. it's swimming in diesle fuel... But where'd the body go?" She stammered a little, afraid that someone took it and was experimenting on it.. Or perhaps something else had happened?

"I think we should get out of here Terry... Before other's come looking for answers we can't give them! I have stuff.. In the truck.. Waiting. We could go to the reservation and hide out awhile." She glanced over her shoulder at the closed door, seeing no one there to over hear, she went back to staring hard at him.

They had to do something before any officials cought on.. Before someone found out something about that wolf's body..

 

[poohlive]

"They would have taken the body already. The police and everyone, when they arrived, they would have taken it first thing. Haven't you talked to anyone yet? No, maybe not yet, but they'll be coming soon."
He had so much to tell her, so much she didn't understand. For a moment, he wanted to start from the beginning, but if he did, there would be far too many questions, and by the time he answered them all, someone really would burst in wanting information.
"Trust me, the body's safe. We have people... in departments, that make sure things like this stay hidden. We can't just run off, not in the middle of the night. If we do, there'll be warrants out for us in the morning, and then we'll have more than just questions to answer."
A smile did get on his lips when he knew the evidence was gone.
They were one step closer, one step further from being free. At least, she was.
For him...
He shook that terrible thought from him.
"Listen, the cops will be coming soon, asking questions we need to get our story straight, air tight. No one can know what happened. It was just a wolf attack, just a rabid wolf. By morning, that's what all the tests will show, a normal, regular rabid wolf. Hun... trust me on this. We can't falter now, not even for that cop friend of yours. We're so close... just keep calm, in a few hours it'll be over. I promise."
Terry stopped though, sniffing the air, something disturbing on his nose. He had a hurt look, seeing her in her clothing, watching her with an accused look.
"Your scent..." He cursed himself, moving up to a sitting position, even though pins and needles stuck all the way through his side.
"You didn't hide your scent. Jesus," he looked at the clothes before him, wondering if hiding out might just be best after all. But, they wouldn't be hiding from the government, they'd be hiding from people worse...
Much worse.
"Rhyanna...."

Rhyanna

"What?!" She stared right back at him, not liking his look one tiny bit.
"Do you see an 'all-night perfume counter' anywhere? It's my home! of course it's going to smell like me, so will the area." She was impatient with him and his paranoia. She didn't plan on staying here in the first place!

"look when the cops get here, we'll just tell them about that a wild crazed animal came into the cabin and attacked. It's that simple." it wasn't lying, that is what happened. They didn't have to admit to changing forms or anything else for that matter!

"And when they are done questioning us, we get the hell out of here." She wasn't staying, not now.. not for anything! She didn't like the look on his face, that look spoke of more evil coming their way.. something she did not want to deal with.

Terry already began to move, pain wrecking through him, but unavoidable at the moment.
"The hospital has a lobby gift shop for a reason, because sometimes people smell like fucking death, and need some cover. I gave you simple instructions, Rhyanna. I didn't want to hide your scent, I don't give a flying fuck about your scent. I was trying to hide..."
He cried out loud when he stretched too far, and his arm moved with him, springing inside a kaleidascope of different pains and numbness. He moved to the side of the bed, putting his legs down, and helping himself one arm at a time into the sweatpants.
"Your other scent. That one's powerful. More powerful than even you may know. You have no idea how good a sense of smell can be. They can pick up a faint odor of you if you had burned the whole forest down. Now they know... now they know you are alive, and you are awoken."
He stumbled up, held onto the bed for a moment, wincing as his legs caught, and then moved to the door.
There was no lock. He cursed.
After closing it, Terry put a chair under the handle, walking back to Rhyanna.
"You told me that you..."
There came a knock, followed by a slight push against the door. Terry looked back, frozen.
"Ummm, hello? Terry? What's going on, we don't have any locks on the inside."
"Who is it?" Terry was moving back as he said this, fear looming in his eyes.
"It's your doctor. I'm just here for a checkup."
Terry bit his lower lip, "Go away."
"Terry? Don't do this, you need medical attention. You have been shot, it took several hours just to patch you back up..."
There was a small whispering of words, and then a louder knock, and a scraping of wood as someone tried to push on the door.
"Terry... Terry, you stupid fuck."
This time, Terry gasped, looking back at Rhyanna.
"That's them," He said, looking out the window, could they make it out there?
"You let your little pup run around all by herself. Come on man, you know we can't allow that."
"I don't know what you're talking about, Rellin," He said, overtly loud.
"The fucking bitch. We had to clean up your god damned mess with Bill, and here we find out you have some new formed bitch. Just let us take care of her, all right? We have orders not to hurt you, Terry. He wants to talk to you personally."
Terry motioned for her, out the window, now...
The door creaked open, the chair began to splinter. Something strong was pushing on the other side.
"I can't let you do that. Not now."
"Terry, you don't have a choice."
Terry looked at the window.
"There's always a choice...." The door exploded open, and inside, there was nothing but an empty bed, and an open window. In the other bed, was an old guy hooked up to lots of machines.
He stared wide eyed, "I didn't do anything."
Rellin gave a sniff, and walked out the door.

Rhyanna

Her eyes widened with alarm as the voices carried through the wee crack in the doorway. Her heart began to hammer as the words sank in..
Hand her over?! To whom?! WHY!?
Her eyes widened with fright, she had to move! She had to get out of there.. but where? She was panicking, feeling anxiety kicking in full force.
When Terry motioned her out the window, she didn't hesitate. She lept out and landed. She rolled across the grass and came up, fully alert, tensing to dash for cover.
"What was that? What's going on Terry? Why are they here?!" She whispered quickly, rapid fire succession questioning. She was terrified they would do to her what Bill had done..

She couldn't face that again! Never again, she just couldn't do it, couldn't allow it!

"Terry?! Are you coming?" She crouched waiting for him to either follow her out or tell her to go.

She didn't have a long wait, he came out behind her, but now what would they do?
She felt faint, weaker than she had been. What were they going to do to her??
"The t-truck.. We've got to get to the truck.." She started forward and paused.. She was too afraid to go forward without Terry leading. "Terry?" She whispered hoarsely, her hand reaching for his.. She needed his strength, she'd gone beyond the call of duty, she didn't know how much more of this she could handle or do..
