Chapter2

Two weeks later

"Maura come on, you promised you'd go with me to Falcons Square last week." Jessica called walking threw the ER after the blond who was holding a clip board in her hands and seemed to be studying the chart in front of her.

"Maura!" she called again.

"Huh, oh yes." She replied dropping the paper work to her side.

"What time do you want to meet?" The blond asked smiling.

Jessica was short for her age but she very much made up for it with her straightforwardness. She was only five feet tall, brown hair to her shoulder blades, a fit body since one of her favorite things to do to let off steam was to work out and glasses, which she only wore when she ran out of contacts saying that they get in the way a lot during surgery.

"Yes!" Jessica squealed hugging her best friend of 6yrs tight. "We can meet after our shift is over and head out afterwards, we can take my car since if I let you drive we wont make it in time for there to be anything decent left." The girl replied giggling.

Falcons square was a big part in their small city of Alexia, it was a place were all the vendors from all around the world would come and try to sell their one of a piece items. From hand made blankets, jewelry, arts and crafts supplies, produce and art work. It was very rare that Maura would go and actually find something that interested her enough to purchase. She could slightly recall Jessica calling her one night after a long forty-eight hour shift and asking her to go with her last week, Maura was so tired all she wanted to do was take a shower and fall asleep for two days straight so she had agreed to whatever Jessica was saying over the phone to end the call quickly so she could go on with her plan.

'She's very sneaky. She knew I was tired and would agree to anything that she was saying in order for me to get my much desired rest that night.' Maura thought to herself shaking her head and smiling.

After their shift was over and they were all cleaned and changed in regular clothes they headed out the door and to Jessica's car.

"Hey is there something bothering you? You've been pretty distracted these last few weeks." Jessica said concern obvious in her voice. Maura couldn't lie due to a medical condition that would make her break out in hives if she did, so instead she chose to dance around the question by bringing up cases that had taken place over the weeks. Lost in the conversation Jessica had forgot that she had even asked Maura a question, and by the time they both knew it they had arrived to their destination.

Pulling into a parking lot close by they got out of the car and headed towards the square. For being four o'clock in the afternoon it was packed, each vender had their own booth side by side of each other. They walked side by side linking their arms to not get separated from each other among all the other shoppers.

"So, where do you want to start?" Jessica asked looking at all the venders that she could clearly see.

"Where ever you want." Maura answered.

"Okay then." she grinned walking to the first vendor that was selling fresh fruits and veggies.

"Oh wow, look how delicious these look Maur." She said excitedly picking up a strawberry. Maura couldn't help the uneasy feeling she was getting all of a sudden, like she was being watched.

"Maur, hey you ok?" Jessica asked putting the strawberry back and looking at her best friend with concern.

"Hmm, oh yes. Come on lets just keep moving." Maura replied pulling her friend along. Midway threw their journey and five hundred dollars spent on Jessica's part, they finally reached a vendor that Maura was actually interest in stopping at.

The booth had books from all around the world, in all different languages about mythology. As a child Maura loved to read and learn all that she could about Mythological factions. She briefly registered that Jessica was telling her that she was going to go look for a bathroom and would return shortly. Maura nodded fingering threw each and every book until one caught her attention, picking it up she read the cover The Wolf Clan, it was oddly heavy for being such a small light brown book, its letters in gold along the top half and etched work of two wolves looking lovingly to each other, one was black and was a little taller then the white one standing along side it. Looking at just the cover Maura felt this undying feeling that she had seen and read this book before, digging into her memory she couldn't recall ever even hearing of the book so there was no way she could have read it before.

"Hello my dear, is there anything I could help you with?" A voice came from behind the booth. Maura tore her eyes away from the book eagered to ask the women about it. The woman appeared to only be four feet tall, she had long salt and peppered hair that was pulled back into a single braid, she looked to be of Indian decent.

Maura smiled at the women. "This book, where does it come from?" she asked politely turning the book around to show its owner.

"Oh my, that book should not be out here." the women gasped moving forward to take it from Maura.

Before she could take it from her it started to glow, Maura looked down at the book and gasped in shock when the image of the two loving wolves, turned into them looking frightening as they bared their fangs.

"It...how...did you.." she couldn't find the words as she looked at the women.

"What is it my dear?" The women looked at the book in the girls hand.

"The wolves they just changed." Maura whispered to herself.

"The wolves?... you can see them?" The short women asked shocked.

"Of course. I am not blind they are clearly here." She replied slightly agitated.

The women's face lit up brightly "Can you read it?" she asked frowning her brow.

Maura opened the book and read the first paragraph to the women.

"Long ago the gods we're at war with each other. Causing them to split apart. Zeus, the god of all gods, had struck the world of man and had condemned the evil ones down into the pit of fire that had opened up when he struck it. The ones that were banished vowed to take revenge on all the gods had loved and created."

"Oh my, you really can read it." The women declared "Come come it's not safe here for you to continue." she said ushering Maura behind the booth where a tent was set up.

"What are you talking about?" Maura asked not feeling comfortable going with a women she had just met. The women turned to look at Maura, fear struck her as she looked behind the girl to see four tall men walking towards them.

"Quickly dear." She said grabbing Maura's hand and pulling her into the tent.

"What's going on?" She asked turning around and seeing the men as well, they dressed the same as the ones at the bar she had went to a week ago. Once inside the tent the women raised her hand and muttered something silently.

"There we should be safe for now." The women replied turning to look at Maura.

"My name is Sako and you are in danger. There are many things that you do not know about your world and being able to read that book you have in your hands is only proof that you are the one we have been waiting for." Sako said moving passed Maura.

"Would you like some tea?" she asked. Maura looked at the her with confusion on her face.

"I know you have lots of questions dear and I promise in time you will receive answers. There are only two people in this world that can read that book in your hands and you are one of them. The other is a powerful women, the leader of my pack. I will take you to meet her once those men get tired of trying to open the tent." The older women proclaimed grinning.

"I don't understand." Maura replied feeling slightly overwhelmed by the situation.

After a few cups of tea and Sako explaining as much as she could to Maura without giving away to much information about her pack leader, knowing that the women could easily kill her if she found out she was giving out information without consulting her first. What seemed to Maura as only a couple of minutes talking to the women she heard her name being called outside. Figuring the men had left Sako uttered a few words before opening the tent back up and walking out with Maura right behind her.

"Maura, oh thank god. I've been looking all over for you. Where have you been?" Jessica said hugging her best friend as she saw her walking out of a tent with a book in her hands.

"I was only inside for a couple of minutes." Maura replied.

" No honey you've been gone for two hours, everyone's almost gone. I was going crazy looking for you, I called your phone but it kept going to voicemail." She answered glaring at her friend who had made her worry so much. Maura looked at Sako with a raised eye brow. The women just nodded.

"Ah, whatever as long as your safe." Jessica said looking at the book in her friends hand. "What's with the empty book, you plan on starting to write again?" she asked taking the book from the girl and looking at the cover that was clearly blank to her.

"Huh? oh yeah, Ms. Sako here was just about to tell me how much it would cost." Maura decided to slightly bend the truth seeing as she really was about to buy the book.

"Think nothing of it dear, I always try to encourage people to write." The women replied with a smile. "Oh ok well, thanks. Come on Maura we need to start heading out." Jessica said interlocking her arm with the other girl.

"Come back anytime girls." Sako called as she watched the two disappear.

On the way back to the hospital to pick up Maura's car, Jessica was telling Maura about all the things she bought and saw. Maura was just smiling and only giving her input when she felt she needed to. She couldn't keep her mind off the book in her hands and wondering what other information she would find in it. After saying their good-byes Maura tucked her book under her arm and searched for her keys in her purse that she had left in Jessica's car when they got off at Falcons Square. The hairs in the back of her neck stood up as she searched, turning around she saw the four guys from the square walking towards her.

Finally getting a good look at them they were all quite handsome, they all wore black button up shirts, black jeans and long leather jackets, three of them had long blond hair to their shoulder and the one in front who looked to be the leader of the four had black hair of the same length as the others. She kept searching for the keys as they walked closer to her, when they were only three feet away they stopped.

"Give us the book girl and no harm will come to you." The leader said in a thick accent that she couldn't figure out the origin off.

"It was given to me and it would be very rude of me if I just handed it over to strangers." Maura said without thinking.

"Then I guess we'll just have to take it from you." The man said as they all fallowed suit behind him walking towards her again.

She was starting to panic until she saw someone step in front of her. 'Its her' Maura thought as she took in the girls appearance from behind.

"Jane." she whispered.

Jane gave a small nod at her name keeping her focus on the guys in front of her.

"What is a Alhine doing here?" One of the men asked.

"Doesn't matter well take her out and kill the girl with the book before we head back to our Master." The leader said pulling his jacket back slight to pull out a gun.

Maura gasped 'This looks bad, Jane could seriously get hurt' she thought to herself'

"I'll just give them the book, I don't want to get you hurt." Maura said stepping beside Jane; who put her hand out in front of the Maura's midsection. She turned to look at the long haired burnet who kept her eyes on the men in front of her.

"You know that wont kill me." Jane said between grinted teeth. Maura looked at her confused 'Of course it could kill you'.

"We'll just see about that." The leader said taking aim, he fired. The bullet landed in Jane's shoulder, before Maura could even scream Jane had pulled out a long sword, its blade was as black as its hilt. Jane ran at the group with unmeasurable speed striking the one with the gun first, she stabbed him in the chest, the rest of the group stood in awe as they watched their leader disintegrate.

"Now, go back to your Master and report what you have seen here and pass this message. If I see any more of your kind in my territory I wont hesitate to kill them as well as him. Go!" Jane shouted as she watched them run out of the garage parking lot.

She turned back to Maura as her vision started to get blurry. "Oh god Jane." Maura said noticing the look in the girls eyes. She ran to her side, putting her arm under Jane's to help her to her car.

"Your safe." Jane was barely able to whisper before she felt sleep under take her.

"What on earth is going on?" Maura whispered dragging Jane to her car, grabbing her keys out she lay Jane in the back seat of her Mazda 6. She had everything she needed to help Jane at her home and knew that if she submitted her into the hospital there would be a lot of questions that she couldn't answer yet explain in fear of her reputation being tarnished.

Once she pulled up to her home, she opened the garage and parked her car inside waiting for the door to close before shutting down the engine and getting out, she opened the side door which lead into her kitchen before moving to get Jane out of the backseat, threw the kitchen, and up the stairs to her bed room. She went into her conjoined bathroom and got the bowl that she uses to keep her scented oils, moved them to the counter top and filled the bowl with warm water, grabbing a towelette after washing her hands she made her way back to the bed. Setting the bowl and towelette on her bedside table she went back to wash her hands thoroughly and grabbed her medical bag that she had packed in case of an emergency. Taking a seat next to Jane she slowly took off her jacket, sword and shirt without waking the girl. Her breath caught in her throat as she looked upon a semi naked form in front of her. Her eyes traveled from the girls olive tone face, to her strong neck, down to her chest, her breast looked absolutely amazing to Maura as she watched them move up and down with ever breath, she moved her gaze down and saw the most well defined abs she had ever seen, there was a slight dampness to them which she figured was from the fight. Moving her eyes back up the girls body and resisting the erge to touch the girls stomach she opened her bag and pulled out a pair of long tweezers, and gloves laying them next to the bowl she put her medical bag down on the floor, she dipped the towelette in the bowl of warm water and gently wiped the now dry blood away from Jane's shoulder and around the wound, she could clearly see the silver bullet, putting the towel back on the table she opened the new package that held the tweezers, after putting on her gloves she held one hand firmly on the area around the bullet, using the teasers she pulled out the bullet and placed it on the towel, leaning down she pulled out some gauze and tape from the bag and quickly covered up the wound. She looked back up at Jane's face to see that the girl was still clearly passed out. Standing up she took the bowl back to the bathroom and rinsed it out before putting her oils back into it.

Not wanting to disturb the girl she gently covered her with a blanket before retrieving the book from the car, grabbing her self a glass of wine that she so desperately needed, she made her way to her living room and sat on the couch, tucking her legs under her sideways she opened the book once again and continued reading until she couldn't anymore and fell asleep.
