"It's this way; the smell is coming from here." Xigbar had caught the scent of a particularly sweet human when a certain wind had passed by his nose without mercy. His throat burned for the warm liquid to extinguish the fire that the stupid human had started by wandering into the forest in the first place. The thought made his stomach churn, he hadn't really wanted to feed tonight, but the hunger was undeniable and forced his instincts. Axel himself hadn't captured the scent as quickly, Xigbar's sense of smell was far sharper, but Axel did have an incredible speed that he tended to show off as often as he could. For instance, he was darting around the trees and coming back with an unnamed fruit or plant between his fingers every split second at the very moment.
"Quit it, you're going to scare it away before I get a chance to…" His sharp incisors felt a dull ache. All he wanted to do was sink them into the soft flesh of the human neck and drain them of every last drop.
"No hey look, what is this?" Axel had brought up an unidentified object in the palm of his hand. Xigbar's nose scrunched as he narrowed his eyebrows at the object.
"Its feces you retard." Axel's face twisted as he dropped the object with a sound of revulsion. Xigbar laughed, stopping mid way as the smell came again with an impact that provoked his teeth to pound in utter pain and his arms to shake uncontrollably with the desire to crush someone between them to keep them still.
"Woah, I smell that, makes my mouth water." Axel looked manageable, for a predator he had a weak sense of smell, it didn't jolt him nearly as much as it did to the black and white haired man. There was a humming that made it clear that their prey was definitely nearer then they had conceived. Axel turned towards Xigbar and displayed his elongated fangs which caught the brilliant light of the moon, pulling up his tongue to lick one with absolute greed in his eyes. Axel didn't intend to share. Xigbar snarled ferociously at Axel without thinking that it would attract attention. The humming had stopped.
"Crap." Xigbar grumbled as he exchanged a last glance with the redhead before they both became a blur. Of course Axel was quicker, by the time Xigbar had skidded to a stop; he saw the source of the smell held at the waist with the other vampire behind her, his lips hovering over the ambrosial neck.
"Sorry babe, but you smell way too good." Axel's teeth bore before Xigbar could even cry out a complaint. Instead, there was a soft laugh that came from the girl's mouth that gradually turned into a throaty chuckle as her neck became more and more out of reach. She was growing shorter, or so it seemed. Both of them took unconscious steps backwards as the victim they had intended to suck dry was replaced with a fierce white wolf who was growling in a slightly confident demeanor with her pointed teeth bared in a sort of simper.
"How did I not smell that?" Xigbar growled regaining his composure over his momentary stupor, crouched habitually. He himself had begun to snarl at the werewolf with subconscious ferocity.
"You messed up big time, my friend." Axel stated as he assumed the same bellicose posture as Xigbar. They both appeared as they were about to attack, but in that same moment they were an obscure shape as they fled. The wolf smiled as she licked her teeth in a playful mood, she set herself up on her paws patiently, but as soon as she was in the position, she was off like a jet. Xigbar heaved a distant sigh as he swerved his body to face to the front; Axel's scent was long gone while the one of the wolf was growing closer with dangerous proximity, he might as well stay. As he had assumed, the wolf had gained too much distance in the short time.
"I don't want to fight doggie, let's just drop it." Xigbar gestured his hands in a careless motion of peace, the wolf's eyes gleamed slowly raising a paw only to place it further ahead in the padding of the grass, nearing slowly with teeth bared in a rollicking smirk.
"Uh, come on violence isn't the answer. Have you learned anything fro--" His statement was immediately stopped in its place as he saw the conviction in her eyes with a familiar blue fire blaze. The older vampire was about to turn and run, but he was caught by teeth piercing into his pants and instead toppled over on the grass with a grunt of surprise as a weight came onto his chest. She had him pinned to the floor; he let out a groan of disbelief.
"You got to be kidding me – ugh" The wolf had placed herself in a seated position on his stomach. The white fur of the wolf bristled a bit as she turned her strong muzzle towards him. Xigbar let out a exhalation of breath and closed his eyes, expecting a pair of teeth to sink into his face. Instead the weight on his chest became a bit more bearable. Cautiously opening his eyes, he saw the girl once again seated on the side with her leg crossed over the other one with an unconcerned countenance. She hadn't phased all the way back; her nail was still razor sharp. He flinched as she rested the nail for a moment on the side of her arm and the slid it over her arm, she startled him with the sudden scent of vulnerable blood, a gasp of overwhelming lust escaped his throat.
'How fickle, teasing me with that blood'' His thoughts were suddenly nonexistent as the blood dripped onto his lips.
"Drink some." The girl offered, Xigbar grasped her arm without much thought and brought the cut to his lips and began to drink hungrily with absolute cupidity.
"Take as much as you want, I don't run out." She claimed as she ignored the sound of his sounds of contentment and the way his tongue kept running over the cut as if it would help him savor the flavor every time he bent further down to take in more of the aromatic blood. He stopped as the fire began to dim down and only become a mild ember. With his mouth still on her arm he looked up at her.
"What's your name?" He asked as he began to slowly graze over the flowing blood down her arm with his lips. She looked down at him with a lackadaisical stare and opened her mouth slowly to answer.
"It's Helly." With that name uttered, she was off him and promptly disappeared into the forest.
