Loki's Blood

[Kira_Wolf_Cub]

She had gotten far fro a wounded wolf, Ray would have to give her that. By the time he tackled her, willow was patting hard and heavy. What energy she did have had been burned completely in fleeing, so beyond a snap and a few growls, Willow couldn't fight him off.

Which was good because relaxing or exhaustion often make then shift back to normal. As she lay panting under the heavy man, her long pink tongue hanging limply out the side of her mouth, Willow's golden eye watched Ray with hatred and fear. How the hell could he speak to her and how the hell could he run that fast? It should have been impossible. As the minutes ticked away, Willow's form shifted slowly, her fur shredding off into the forest and her bones reforming once more. Her heavy pants turned to labored gasps and before long, Ray found himself laying on top of a boney naked sixteen years old that he was holding the neck of.

"Get off me!" She screamed, getting a small second wind, and tried to twist free of his hold. But he was too heavy and she was to exhausted. "Let go! Get off-"

She heaved several deep breaths as her weak attempts to fight him off failed and her arm throbbed alive with fresh pain.

"Ah.. fuck." She wasn't sure what hurt more. Being shot with tiny pellets or stepping in a beartrap.

Ray held her down until she transformed into a Young girl, he sighed and kept her down, yet with a much gentler hold. When she started to struggle anew he had to sigh, ok…

He landed two hard slaps to her behind so she would pay attention.

“Listen little bratty pup, I want you to behave already, I’m not here to hurt you, and in case you’ve been too busy playing with traps and stealing things, I am like you, so are many of this town, we’re not here to hurt you, but if you keep up with the attitude you’ll have a sore bottom for quite a while, now, calm down already.” He requested not longer growling but in a warning voice.

[Kira_Wolf_Cub]

Willow was about to try and fight him off once more when suddenly his grip on her switched completely. With a confused look on her face, Willow felt the stranger roll her onto her back and thepit of her stomach dropped. There she was, nake and pinned under a man who knew her secret. A man who had out run and over powered her no less.

'Oh god, I'm gonig to be rape!'

It wasn't her fault she thought it, what else could she think? So when she felt two hard swats landing on her ass, making both her cheeks blush, it was no surprise that she was. Before she could do anything more then yelp in pain and shock, Willow found herself rolled over again and then hauled into a sit, both of her hands trapped in Ray's massive paws.

“Listen little bratty pup, I want you to behave already. I’m not here to hurt you, and in case you’ve been too busy playing with traps and stealing things, I am like you, so are many of this town. We’re not here to hurt you, but if you keep up with the attitude you’ll have a sore bottom for quite a while."

She jsut sat silently, staring at him. Had he really just...

"Now, calm down already.”

A quiver ran from her feet and up her arms. Had she been a wolf, her ears would have drooped and her tail would have been glued between her legs. not that Ray needed them to tell what was about to happen. Her bottom lip trembled as her eyes brimmed with unleashed tears. She pinned her lip between her teeth for a minute as she tried to chock the whimper crawling up her throat.

she was so tire, and so frightened. And despite this she refused to cry in front of this stranger who had over powered her.

"Liar," She whimpered, trying to tug away. "Get away from me. Liar."

She needed to get away, desperate for both space and a set of clothes at the least. It was awkward for her to be nude in front of others, which was uncommon for weres as they tended to shift back and forth in front of each other. She was so wrapped up in trying to get free from his hold, she never noticed the second person joining them.

[NoiselessKnife]

Ray wanted to keep his stern stance yet when he saw the girl starting to tear up he sighed and lowered his shoulders in defeat.

“Awr, c’mon pup, I did not spank you that hard” He muttered putting his hand over her head, not minding her words. “Kid, if I was lying why would I have bothered to stop and let you free of the trap, or trying to catch you again? It would have been loads easier to let ya wonder off” He said in a bit gentler voice, yet it came with his usual strictness again. “Now knock that off unless you wanna know how a real spanking feels like” He scolded, yet not as heartily as before.

“C’mon Ray, she’s only a pup” Another voice came as the young werewolf known as Ulrick joined them. He looked at the struggling girl and smiled before getting off the clothes Mary had given him.

“Here, dress yourself first, then we can talk” He offered while Ray gave her a warning glance.

[Kira_Wolf_Cub]

Willow tucked the overly large T-shirt to cover herself from the two men. Neither had backed too far away from her, Ray didn't exactly want to chase her down again, but mostly because neither saw a reason to. They had seen naked women, hell Ulrick had to fight them off every hunt or pack gathering. It wasn't that either were gay, they were as straight as the red wood trees. But like children raised in a hippie colony, were children where use to nudity.

So it was completely confusing as they watched Willow, struggling to get dressed without showing her body more then needed. She used her curtain of hair to cover her breast and she even when as far as turning her back on them and wiggling into the shorts rather then stand up. Nothing about her behavior was normal to them. Not for a werewolf at least.

Willow finally rouse to her feet as she buttoned the borrowed shorts before she turned around to face him. She was still upset, they didn't need her ears and tail out to tell that, but there was an air around that screamed that she wouldn't go quietly with them.

Willow was nervous and already assessing the pair. The younger one looked weaker to her then the brute next to him but there was an air around him that screamed 'don't fuck with me' and, she shamefully admitted, he was rather handsome. But she wasn't going to let that fool her. She might follow them now because she was out numbered and too worn down to do anything else, but first chance she got she was going to make a run for it again.

She knew the truth about people after all. People always lie.

[NoiselessKnife]

Ray sighed both in confusion and in a ‘Kids-these-days’ kind of way as he saw the pup’s shame of changing herself in public.

“Gosh, pup, where do you come from?” He asked as he waited patiently for the girl to finish.

Ulrick smiled a bit; he had seen this with a few of the tourists that came every now and then. “Let me guess, you’re from a big city, am I wrong?” He asked looking at her as she turned to face them, yet upon seeing her face his smile went down, the pup was analyzing them as a hunter, well, a little wolf, analyzed a prey, he did not appreciate this, not at all yet he contained himself of doing anything, first they needed to help the young one and also Ray had already made clear what would happen if she tried anything. “C’mon girl, sniff the air, we’re like you” He said calmly but seriously his deep green eyes narrowing slightly.

The gray haired werewolf rolled his eyes.

“Come here already pup, we’ll get you some food and a warm place, we mean no harm to you as long as you don’t try anything, don’t try to play smart or else you’ll have a reason to howl” He said gruffly.

The green eyed young werewolf offered her the old backpack she had been carrying before escaping from the store. “Here, we got your stuff” He commented calmly, his eyes were a bit sterner yet he did not seem dangerous, or at least was not trying to look dangerous.

[Kira_Wolf_Cub]

Willow jerked back when Ulrick reach out to her, showing her the raggy old back pack. Everything around the girl screamed distrust and confusion. When she saw it was hers however, Willow didn't reach out to take it. She eyed them instead and weaved on her feet just as a dog would when it was distrusting of a person holding a treat. After five tries to reach out for it, Willow slowly reached out a hand to take the strap farthest from Ulrick's hand and practically yanked it from him.

There was no thank you. No I am sorry. Just as scowl as she clutched the bag to her chest.

"Come here already pup, we’ll get you some food and a warm place, we mean no harm to you as long as you don’t try anything, don’t try to play smart or else you’ll have a reason to howl.”

"I don't need your fucking charity," She snapped at the pair, taking a step back from them. 'People lie. They always lie.'

She wasn't sure what he meant by 'we're like you'. It could just be pure luck that they could speak to her in wolf form. Hell, the could just be freaks like she was. It didn't prove anything and she certainly had no reason to trust either of them. The handsom-err she meant to think younger, man seemed to be trying to stare her down and while something in her wanted to roll over under his gaze, Willow felt something deeper in her starting to boil. She would not submit to his gaze, not until hell froze over or her stomach growled again.

"The fuck are you looking at?!" She snapped, piercing green eyes meeting piecing green. She slowly shifted back a foot, ready to run if need be though it would be hopeless. "And stop calling me 'pup'. I'm not a fucking dog!"

She didn't know the area, there were probably more traps out there for her to step in, and her reserves were at their lowest at the moment.

'In short I'm screwed no matter what.' She thoughts as her leg muscles flexed.

[NoiselessKnife]

“Geez, I had enough” Ray said and then, with neck breaking speed, put himself behind the lost girl and put both his hands over her shoulders, keeping her still. “Ok kid, no, we’re not giving you charity, wolves look for each other, over all for the young, even when they come from somewhere else, are disrespectful brats and little thieves.” He said his grip iron like on her shoulders as he made her start to walk towards the younger man.

“And in case you don’t notice it, you ARE a kid by our standards, you’re not a dog, you’re a young were; a pup. Also, you should have already noticed that you’re in our territory, so we are who make the decisions here and, last but not least, this is the Alpha’s right hand and his son to whom you’re talking about, so show respect. You screwed it up kid, now, you can either follow us, talk to us calmly since we won’t hurt you, or put up a fight and end up following us, but with a very sore behind, this is your last chance to avoid that unpleasant tanning.- The gray headed were grumbled.

The younger man just rolled his eyes, ok, the kid had brought this onto herself.

“We just want to hear where you come from, whose clan do you belong and those kinds- The green eyed said as he saw Ray nearly dragging the girl.

[Kira_Wolf_Cub]

"What the-?!?"

She hadn't seen him more. He really just was that fast. One minute Ray had been standing next to Ulrick, looking every bit irritated as he did when he had to deal with the first timer shifters who thought turning into a wolf meant they didn't have to listen to anyone, and the next he was gone. There was barely a ruzzel of leaves when he moved and it was only when she felt the heavy sets of hands thump down on her shoulders that Willow knew where he was. She jumped and growled, turning hard in order to sent her leg flying into the man's side, but he held her easily in place. She wasn't going to move unless he wanted her too.

When at least not her feet anymore. Her arms were another matter.

"Let go, you freak!"

Before Ulrick could warn Ray beyond a shocked look, Willow swung her arm back and gave Ray a blow with her elbow. She had meant to strike him in the stomach, knowing the wind out of him and then running again as he gasped for air. With luck and a lot of it, she would be able to out run the younger guy. The thing was, she didn't hit Ray in the stomach, but in the family jewels. As the man doubled over Willow grabbed her bag and swung it at Ulrick's head, forcing him to either back away or get hit.

"I don't what the hell you two are talking about or what fucked up shrooms you've munched," She snarled putting a little distance between herself and the pair. Betas and alphas and fucking amazon woman on moon, nothing they said made any fucking sense to her. Were they part of a curt or just some really messed up role players with weird fucking abilities? Not likely but hell she had met insane people over the year, why not add these nuts to the mix. "Just stay away from me!"

[NoiselessKnife]

The younger man took a step back when she swung the backpack and avoided being hit, yet as it passed by he grabbed it roughly and trew it to the side before taking a hold on the girl’s arm.

Enough was enough.

He frowned deeply and his eyes turned shinning green, the pupil on them dissapeared and soon they were beast like, he snarled, opening his mouth to reveal long fangs and growled with authority, he looked frightening. A look that he only directed to the pups who had already reached the end of his patience and who, upon looking at him, would roll over and whimper, his iron grip on her arm telling her to drop it, he did not move.

A few moments later Ray recovered and growled too.

-Ok, pup, that’s IT.- He said in the wolf speech and walked to the girl, he pinned her arms back and guided her roughly to a fallen tree. –I DID warn you.-
