Inner wolf.
This is a skyrim/Dawnguard fic, it will take a while to get to the dawnguard part, as i am doing the story from the begining. I hope peopel like it, once the romance part of the story is uploaded there will be a mention of which chapter it starts on.
I am no good at writing summeries, so just be patiant and read. If you dont like it then dont read. This will be a Femmslash fic, F!Dragonborn/F! (I know who the other person is but i fancy keeping you guys guessing.
First POV
The first this I could concentrate on was the musty smell of sweat, blood and unrine. I could feel the blood pumping in my head, although it was almost nullified by the sharp sting at the base of my skull. Next was the sound of hooves crashing to the ground hard and heavy, yet keping a slow, steady pace.
Skyrim.
If the sound of the large horses wasnt enough of a clue opening my eyes was, the sun glistened across the snow-covered trees, the light blue of the sky almost reflecting on the faces of my companions.
Stormcloaks and imperials, never a good sign.
Looking down at my bound wrists I smiled, such flimsy rope could never hold my other skin.
Just as I was about to unleash my inner beast one of my companions spoke up, undoubtedly noticing that I had come to.
nobody's POV
"I see your awake"
The voice came from a large blond nord clad in stormcloak armour, his eyes brightened as they met those of his traveling companion.
Finally the woman awakens.
"Hmph, a few more hours of sleep would have been nicer." The woman lifted her top lip as she spoke, almost as if she was snarling.
"You arn't a stormcloak, why do the imperials feel the need to take you to the chopping block?"
Laughting the dark haired beauty shook her head "So thats where this cart is headed, I guess killing perverts is a crime against the Empire now too."
The nord smiled at her remark, and opened his mouth to speak before being cut off by a the small man sat next to him on the carrage, who had just zoned in on the conversation.
"Chopping block? I dont deserve to die, i could have stolen that horse and been half way to hammerfell by now!"
The Large blond nord turned his nose up at the theif's comment, a look of both anger and disdane spread across his features.
"Face your death with honor, it is nords like you who give us a bad name, with your theivary and your stupidaty. See the man sat infront of you" The large norde notioned infront of the theif, at a man hunched over his bound wrists stairing at the theif, unable to say anything due to the gag in his mouth.
"That is Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak, the true high king. you should watch your tounge"
The Theif reclined into his seat on the cart, looking nervously towards the nord.
"Keep quiet back there i wouldn't want to have to take the headsmans job from him."
The imperial driving the cart smirked to himself.
Maybe now I can journey in peace.
The cart pulled to a stop in the middle of helgen, one by one the captives 's names were called to the headsman's block, being made to wait until every name was called before starting the decapitaions.
It wasn't until lokir, the horse theif; name was called that the line was broken, the cowerdly nord ran for his life, only to be shot down by an imperial archer.
The woman, compeltely unfased by the theifs death staired into the eyes of the imperials before her, almost as if she was daring them to kill her where she stood.
The male imperial caught her gaze and stared her the list searching for a name, unable to find one he looked her the female prisoner confused "your not on the list, what is your name?"
Walking forward the prisoner smirked to herself.
Idiot imperials.
"Tamika"
The Male imperial noded his head before looking towards his commanding officer.
"What should we do, she's not on the list?"
"Send her to the block with the rest"
The imperial turned towrds the prisoner and offered an apologetic smile, as if it would make up for sending her to her death.
"I will make sure your remains are returned to Hammerfell"
Tamika scoffed, walking towards the block turning her head to call back "Don't bother, i've never been there anyway"Not that you'd even get a chance to send remains once I let lose my beast.
The redguard sniggerd to herself, earning a jab in the back from an imperial as she made her way to the block.
Suddenly a loud roar echoed through the city, startling most imperials.
Tamika studied the skys where the sound came from. Her trance broken by the cound of a head hitting the basket, the stormcloaks muttering condolences of their lost companion whilst the imperials hailed themselves.
"Next the redguard" Tamika's onix eyes bore through the captins as she slowly walked towards the block, her gaze broken when another lour roar echoed through the walls of Helgen.
The young redguard knelt before the block stairing towards the headsman and smirking, as he swung his axe back, at that second, before Tamika could begin her transformation, she felt the ground shake, causing the headsman to fall, reveling to her what had caused the earth to quake.
The dragons scales were as black as night, his red eyes shone under the darkness of his brow, his jaw was long and sleek, curving off into spikes that jutted from his chin, he staired at Tamika, his red eyes feeling as if they could pierce her soul, he opened his mouth showing his bladlike teeth and took a large breath in.
"FUS!"
Tamika's vision blurred as the base of her skull came in contact with the chopping block, rolling onto her from the redguard shook her head and tried to stable herself looking to where the dragon had been only t osee fire raining from the sky and collapsed buildings littering the once-prosperous city of Helgen.
I must have fell unconsious, no way even a dragon could do that much damage in mere seconds.
She was brought back into reality by a strong hand grasping her arm, looking towards the arm she was relieved to see it was Ralof, the nord offerd a weak smile before running in the direction of a still-standing building.
"Come on this way"
Tamika didn't need to be told twice as she jogged behind Ralof into protection, unable to shift without causing alarm and unable to swing a sword or string a bow with her hands bound; she was helpless.
_
"I cant believe we made it! Did you se the look on Hadvar's face back there and a Dragon, an actual dragon attacked Helgen. Either way, I'm glad you came with me, Tamika" The nord smiled to his comanion offering his hand.
Smiling the Redguard raised her bound hands "I cannot shake your hand until you do something about this, Ralof"
"Oh right I forgot about that, I had wondered why you had not picked up a sword, you do not seem the type to shy away from battle" Tamika shook her head n responce, her faint smirk that seemed to be tattooed to her face still evedent as ralof cut though the binds on her wrist with a small dagger.
"You should take Gunjar's armour and wepon, I doubt he'll be needing it now he is in sovernguard." Ralof gave his dead friend a solum look, before turning to face the wall as his new, redguard companion changed into stormcloak armour, turning back when the sound of rustling had stopped and had been replaced with the sound of iron cutting though the air.
"You are not used to an axe I take it?" ralof cocked his elbow at the redguard as she haphazardly swung an axe around as if it was a mace.
"You can tell? I usually use a mace for close combat, but my real skill recides in a bow and my cla- fists." Tamika corrected herself, it was far too soon to trust this, nord, with her secret.
"I thought as much, we shoul- Wait do you hear that"
Tamika stopped swinging her axe and leaned her head back lightly sniffing the area.
Blood, sweat and burnt skin. Seeing as Ralof and I are uninjured, that only leaves one conclusion.
"Come on we need to get though!"
Tamika heard the voice of the same imperial officer that had tried to sentence her to her death, ring through her ears.
Revenge
"It must have been my imagination, lets find a way out of here"
Ralof struggled with the door on the right angrily muttering about it being locked, before turning to the gate on the other side, just as imperials turned the corner and headed towards them.
"Hide!" Ralof shout-whispered at his redguard companion, as they put themselves up against the walls either side of the gate.
"We must get this gate open" The officer walked towards the now-opening gate and Tamika let her strength flow through her as she launched herself at the imperial woman crashing her axe though the steel helmet and using her supernatural strength the keep the swing in motion until the officers head had been cleaved in two, Ralof looked towards Tamika along with the two imperial guards all shocked into stillness as she yanked her axe out of the officers remains and tuned towards the three of them her bloodsoaked face donning a smile none had seen before.
Before the impirials had a chance to react Ralof turned to the first one and brought his axe down upon his neck, before turning as Tamika and Ralof sliced their axes through the last standing imperials neck in a scissor motion, decapitating him.
"You serch the bodies for keys I'm going into the back room to see if i can find anything of use." Ralof nodded and smiled, he could tell he would become fast friends with this woman.

Four hours and countless imperial bodies later, the two survivers emerged in what seemed like the last portion of the cave, slowly, with her bow ready Tamika made her was across the small stream behind Rolaf, only to walk into his outstreched arm.
"Look at that bear over there, should we kill it or shoul-" Tamika ddn't even give gim time to finish his sentence at she sent an arrow straight into the bears thick skin, killing it instantly.
"Well I guess that answers that" Ralof smiled at his companion, who was waling towards the bears corpse not bothering to be quiet
"Tamika! there could be more!"
Tamika shook her head, she had only smelt the one, therfore there would be only one. but she couldn't rightly say that to her new friend could she.
"My gut says that we're done here" Ralof smiled and shook his head as Tamika knelt down and started skinning the bear.
"Do you always listen to what your gut says?" Tamika rose one eyebrow at Ralof as she dragged her dagger through the last to the fat between the muscle and the skin on the bear, foldingher new pelt and tieing it around her waist untill she found a blacksmith to make her leather armour.
"I do when i'm hungry, right now I am starving; lets get moving so I can eat something." Ralof seemed please enough with her change of subject, rubbing his own belly in agreement.

Tamika reachedinto her knapsack, pulling out a health potion, before passing it to Ralof.
"You should be more careful with wolves Ralof, they are smarter then most people think they are" The undertone of worry was evident in Tamika's voice.
"I believe you, I never expected them to run straight past you and attack me, they must have known i wouldn't have been ready for them"
Yeah thats it; not the fact they could sence I am an Alpha Tamika thought to herself.
Tamika pulled Ralof up, being careful of his injured arm and dragged him into town trying to ignore his childish babbleing about how he could have killed them quicker if they hadden't supprised him. Truth was, he should have been ready for them anyway, not that Tamika would have said that.
