Emily grabbed a blanket that was on the couch and wrapped it around herself. She pressed on the spots that Vance had hit her to try to stop the bleeding. She was in a lot of pain but knew she had to get outside. She had been able to dodge everything when the house had fallen, but she was now trapped under it and if it fell...Well she didn't want to think about that. She had to get out, get help, and look for Shawn.

Sky didn't wait to see what happened to the one who would take the bullet. No doubt he had some sort of quick escape route. She raced towards the girl who was beneath the house. She would have to move quick, she relied on her nose and followed the girl's scent. There was dust all around clouding her view but she stayed steady and quickly tracked down the girl. She grabbed her by the neck of her clothing and tossed her unto her back. Quickly, hearing the house shift, she bolted out towards the tree where to boy lay. He had probably passed out and the girl would too. The pair were not prepared for this nor did they appear to be seasoned fighters. She laid the girl next to the boy under the tree behind the bushes and she turned defensively waiting silently to see what had happened to their attacker.

Emily didn't know who the wolf was that was helping her, but she was thankful for her. When the wolf put her next to Shawn Emily was relieved. He was alive. She saw the blood on Shawn and realized that he was passed out. She put her hand on his cheek and shook her head. "This is my fault. You got hurt trying to protect me." She put her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes. She soon passed out.

Sky didn't want to wait around to see what happened to the assassin. She turned back to the pair passed out in the grass and shook her head. She was much taller and leaner then them and was thankful, she hoisted them both over her shoulders and leapt into the air. She jumped across roof tops and was soon up into the hills. Sky brought the two to the cave she had been staying in and added wood to the burning embers knowing they would catch while she worked. She returned to her human form and assessed the girl first because she was one of her kind. She healed all the bumps, bruises and cuts and brought ease to her muscles and body. She wrapped her in a blanket and placed her on the cot she had slept in the past few nights. She moved over to the human who was looking rather pale. She worked quickly and was thankful he wasn't awake. She pushed the bone back in to be healed and watched him wince in pain, even unconsciousness. Her hand emitted a blue light over his broken leg as it healed. She looked over the rest of him and healed the rest of his cuts quickly. She lifted him to another blanket next to the girl on the cot and wrapped him in more blankets. She the rose and set to preparing herbs and food for the pair for when they woke.

Emily smelled wood wood burning and slowly opened her eyes. She looked around and saw Shawn and the girl that had saved them. She didn't know if she could speak because she was so weak, and didn't really want to. She looked at Shawn hoping he would wake soon.

Shawn slept heavily, the encounter with Vance left him more than just physicly damaged, Vance mentaly scarred him. In his helplessness he couldn't even defend himself let alone Emily, she was protecting him. This realization menafested into nightmares. As Shawn slept, he grimaced and rolled his sleep. The visions of Vance holding Shawn down, with his ability over gravity and holding a gun to Emily's head, while she lay on the ground in torn and bloody. He laughs maniacly before shooting Emily. Shawn jumps up franticly, sweat dripping down his borw.
(ok its currently now late in the afternoon, around 9pm)

Emily went to Shawn and grabbed his arm. "Shawn. It's okay." She still was a little weak so she didn't say anything more. She hoped he would realize they were safe and calm down. What had even happened? He had to have been having a nightmare.

Shawn grabbed his forehead panting heavily, sweat sliding down his cheek, from his forehead. He felt Emily embrace his arm, bringing him back to reality. He glance over to her direction, his eyes sight blurry, he couldn't say much either but he forced the words out. "Emily....you..safe." He said between each pant, Shawn state of mind wasn't to safe at the moment, he laid back down, and his hand grabbed on to hers tightly, he tried to say someting else but no sound would leave his lips, just eavy breathing. His nightmare had shooken him up badly.

Emily squeezed Shawn's hand and nodded. "I'm fine. How are you feeling? Not too great I'm guessing." She wiped the sweat from his face and looked at him. He looked so afraid. No. Horrified. She wanted to hug him and tell him everything was going to be okay, but she couldn't.

Vance howled out in pain as the bullet entered his lower left arm. he was dropped to the ground and the next thing he knew the two were gone. "who was that wolf? getting involved with clan matters? no matter, I still have work to do" he walked over to the porch which was the only standing part of the house now and sat down on the steps. he held his arm out and examined the wound. shaking his head he concentrated his power into his claw and with the added force he cleaved his arm clean off. he let out another howl but the pain quickly began to subside. without the silver in his body he felt a great sense of relief. he looked at his lower right arm and then cut off that one aswell as it was burnt beyond his ability to heal it. it was a good thing only his bottom arms were damaged as they would regrow each time he transformed as long as he removed them. he grabbed his coat which he had discarded earlier and returned to his human form placing it on to cover himself. he scanned through the rubble finding several peaces of clothing belonging to both shawn and Emily and quickly memorized their scents. he quickly made his way home and began to write up his report on the day's events. he did not worry about capturing shawn and Emily now. they would be at school tomorrow, and if not he all ready had their scent.

Skylar listened to the two of them as they stirred awake. They were no doubt very weak, so she quickly poured up two bowls of a herbal soup and brought it over to the pair. She didn't enjoy the presence of others but she didn't mind these two, considering the circumstances. She placed a bowl in front of each of them, "Drink up, it'll return your strength... Well, most of it, you'll still need some rest. Nothing beats a natural healing process." She commented calmly. She left them with the bowls and walked over to the fire. She wasn't far from them and the cave wasn't overly large but it was home and protected by magic from unwelcome guests. There were wooden tables and books all over the place in stacks, some open with amulets sitting within its pages. There were strange amulets and other things hanging from the ceiling, this place was her refuge since the Great Massacre. Sky knew the nickname lycans had for her coming from one of the highest, most respected families, even though she was the sole remaining 'member'. The Lone Wolf. She knew the respect that came with her lonely existence but avoided others anyway. She added another log to the fire and watched the smoke rise through a winding hole that led to outside.

Shawn smiled at Emily, as an attempt to reassure her. A the woman came up to them with bowel, Shawn braced himself, so he could sit up. He looked at Emily than at the bowel. It smelled horrible, but if she wanted to kill tem, why bring them all the way here? Shawn took the bowel with his free hand -his other still holding on to Emily's- and placed the rim to his lips. He let the soup touch his lips, and automaticly pulled it bac. "Why does medicine always taste nasty." He whined, but by him doing that he suddenly realized his strength was returning. Shawn started to drink again, gulping it down ignoring the god-awful taste. Once finished he placed the bowel back down where the woman left it, and laid back down.

Emily didn't even look at the bowl until Shawn was done with his. Once he had put his down she picked hers up and drank it. She quickly drank it and put the bowl down. She pressed her lips together so she wouldn't spit it out. After she had swallowed it she spoke. "That was gross."

Sky walked over smiling, "A small price to pray to regain most of your strength back instantly and to strengthen your body," She picked up the bowls, "Can I get you anything else?" She asked calmly.

Vance finished his field report and enclosed it in an envelope sealing it with a wax stamp. he walked out the door and let out a howl that rose howls from the dogs of the surrounding neighborhood. almost immediately after he was done a black wolf with an eye patch walked up to him "your report ready?" Vance nodded and handed the letter to the messanger wolf. the wolf took it in its mouth and just as quickly as it had appeared it vanished into thin air. Vance sighed knowing the jest of the conversation with the boss he was going to have tomorrow and the thought made him cringe knowing he was going to be chewed out. he walked back inside and passed out on the bed tired from the fight.
