Don sighed and shook his head "Remember that this is your choice, I tried to give you an out. Stupid humans" He shook his head again and went back to his place. Once he was out of sight he released a howl, letting the others know they could start the attack, focusing on the humans first.
~~~
Star smiled as she walked with him, enjoying the last breath of day as the night took it's place. She liked the fading scents of the roses, and the growing scents of the night blossoms. "Yes, it is very nice out here" She agreed softly.
~~
Kyra smiled at him, glad for his help in getting the heavy buck back to the tree again. Once it was there, she ran up to get the knife so she could start skinning and preparing the meat.
~~~
The cave was dark and small, made for creatures the size of the wolf or smaller, a wonderful hiding place.
Two others attacked in a short burst, trying to keep the guards and mutants from fixating on a location and trying to take the human fighters out
~~~
Ember easily got up and followed him out, taking a seat with him and snuggling up close.
~~~
Jackie came back, taking her seat in the living room and staring at the table without seeing it. She didn't like the news so far, and this was just the start of the battle.
~~~
Angela blinked and gently accepted the grape from his fingers. "I don't mind your presence at all. I want to be with you," She said then blushed deeply.
Rico took cover and nodded to Chaos's handler to release him. To which she gave the release command and sent him charging into the fray. Doing what his name implied. Omen stayed close to the soldiers. It was best to get out of the way of a frenzied Chaos. While the soldiers returned fire on both wolfs and spiders. Getting a bead on their locations by the direction of the gun reports.
~~~
Falkirk smiled, even though she couldn't see it. She just made him want to smile constantly. He slowed as they reached the moon flowers section of the night garden. There was a quaint bench set in a arbor right across from them. So one could enjoy there splendor with out rush. He gently guided Star over to it.
The bothers going to each side of the arbor. Where their protection was close, but not intrusive.
~~~
While she field dressed the buck, Graydon started the task of collecting sticks, vines and wood she needed for the jerky curing process.
~~~
Jim used the butt of his gun to try and dislodge one of the wolves from his friend. "Get off, you mangy mutt!" He said with contempt. As the others openly fired on the other wolf. They had to get to that signal so they could get out of here. That's the whole reason they were out here to begin with.
Zypher focused and fired. Cursing when it failed to drop his opponent. It made him long for armor piercing rounds. Because they obviously had on Kevlar. He focused again for a head shot. First on a human, then on one of the hybrids. But it was to late, they were in constant movement now. He'd fire, but they weren't there when the bullet arrived.
Wrath shot poisonous quills at a few wolves. While Phury was snorting flames and swing his horns around wildly.
~~~
Cadeon savored this time with Ember. As she snuggled into him, he absently rubbed her back and rested his chin atop her head.
~~~
Garth watched as Jackie walk into the living room. He noticed her blank stare as she sat on the couch. So he slowly came over, unsure of his intrusion and if it would be welcomed. She calmed him with her presence and he sensed tension within her. So he sat on the floor next to her feet and lightly rested his shoulder aginst her leg. He'd protect her while she was in her thoughts. It was something that seemed important to him.
Bertram finished up his last glass of water. He came out of the kitchen and looked for Jackie. He stop at the sight that was before him. He tipped his head and walked over to sit on the other side of Jackie. He made sure to make just enough sound to not startle either one.
~~~
Nektar smiled pleasantly, his deepest hope now validated. "Then it's settled, where ever we go or stay, we do it together." He brought her hand up to his lips and kissed it delicately.

Sorry it takes so long.)
