Gwen looked down at him with an evil smirk and crouched down. She lifted the knife up and slammed it right next to his head.
Daniel screamed like a little girl. David and Max laughed. Max flew over to David and Daniel, then raised an eyebrow.
"Yeesh for a poacher you sure are a pussy..."
Gwen laughed and got up. She sat in her chair once again.
"Why are you here again? "
Daniel looked around the room.
"I'll tell you if you let me stand like a normal person!..." Daniel tried and failed once again to move David's boot.
"Fine... But only if you let us tie you to a chair..." Max smiled evilly.
"Tie me to a chair!?... You treat the bear man better than me! And he's an animal!..."
David lifted him up of the ground and into the air Daniel kicked his legs and tried to break free. "Don't ... Ever ... Say That Again..."
"The bear- wait how'd you know he was a bear" She stopped her sentence.
Daniel turned his head to look at Gwen.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK I'M DENSE!?..." Max got a twinge scared when he yelled. "HES GOT BEAR EARS AND A TAIL!..."
"Right, but you are pretty dense." She looked at Jasper.
"But do you know what happened to him, I found him with cuts and bruises all over him." she growls, "was it you?"
"huh me?..." He scoffed. "I didn't have the time to go after it... Besides I like a challenge... " He cracked his neck and looked right at Max. "I like hunting... Things with more brains... Killing him would be like killing a dog..."
Max hid behind David and grabbed his shirt for emotional support.
Gwen ripped the knife out of the wood and pointed it at Daniel.
"You hurt anyone here and I'll fucking murder you" She threatened
Daniel looked at her through his half lidded eyes. His expression was not threatened in the least.
"What kill Me?... Kill the only lead you have?... The only way you can get answers... "
She hesitated, then grind.
"I could just read you mind with a little spell!" She walks closer slowly and leans near his ear "what's stopping me from killing you now?" She whispers menacingly.
Daniel noticed David's hold on him was weekend due to him worrying about Max... His plan was working…
"oh I don't know maybe the fact Im trained agents mind-reader spells?... Or maybe the fact I grabbed your knife..." Daniel kicked David in the chest, fell to the floor and put the knife up to Gwen's throat.
Gwen keeped the grin on her face.
"You grabbed the wrong thing," she grabbed her wand and throws him across the room, knocking him out in the process. She casts another spell on him to keep him frozen like that. Gwen then runs over to David to check if he's okay.
David gets up and the first thing he does is look for Max.
David gasped as he found Max on the floor, he was passed out. When Daniel kicked David, he was thrown at the wall. He landed on Max. David flew to him and picked him up in his arms.
David was so worried about Max he did notice he was bleeding…
"I'll brew one for him later but now we need to get rid of this asswipe," she grumbles and makes Daniel float, taking him to the Bunker.
David laid Max on the bed next to Jasper.
"Look Jasper... Max got hurt..." David turned Jasper's head for him.
All of the sudden Jasper came to a new consciousness and shook his head.
"Uh... Wha?... Davey?..." David looked at him and smiled.
"... Welcome back buddy..." David said as he pet Max's hair.
Gwen locked the Bunker and walked back to the cabin. She looks at the three boys who had taken over her bed and sighs.
She brewed up another healing potion while humming an unfamiliar tune. Gwen thought of all the events that night. She looks at the time:
12:28
She groaned ready to hit her head, but finished the potion. Gwen poured it into a cup and walks to the bed.
She pours the potion into Max's mouth. Max jolted up coughing, he spit and wiped his tongue, trying to get rid of the after taste. Gwen Laughed and grabbed a cola from the fridge, and gave it to the poor boy.
"ahh! Fuck!..." Max sat up in bed and rubbed his head. "Why!? I told you not to give me that nasty stuff..."
David hugged Max. "Aww! I'm glad your okay..."
Max rolled his eye then noticed something.
"Uhh... Hey Dad! Your bleeding!..."
Sure enough David looked down and he was bleeding through his shirt. Jasper winced.
"Are you okay man?..." Jasper put his hand on David's back.
"I-i- don't know..." David took off his shirt and looked at his chest.
Max and Jasper gasped and looked at the sight… There in David's chest was a small piece of wood... About the size of someone's finger.
"What the FUCK!?" Gwen panicked and instantly laid David down on the bed.
"This is gonna hurt like a bitch but you gotta deal with it!..." She tried to take the small stake out as gently as possible.
"Jasper there's some more of the healing potion in the cauldron, can you go put that in a cup and bring it here?"
Jasper fell of the bed and ran up to her cauldron. He got some of the spooky drink and handed it to Gwen. David couldn't help but scream when she took it out. Max was really scared, he hugged tight. Jasper sat next to Max and hugged him.
"It's okay... Your dad's gonna be okay..."
"Drink this, Jasper grab him a cola… Max he'll be fine, he just needs rest," Gwen forced David to drink the disgusting substance and cleaned the blood around his wound.
David sat up and held his head in his hand. The other was gripping the blanket on the bed.
"Uhhg... " He growled. "I need a drink..."
Max jumped away from Jasper and hugged David. He was careful not to touch his chest.
She put her hand on David's head and lays him back down.
"Nope, you need rest after that... "
Jasper handed David a can of cola. "Here get that taste outta your mouth..."
David grabbed the can and put it agents his forehead. The cold can was nice up there... "Thanks I appreciate it... But ... I'd rather have something with a little more "kick" if you know what I mean..."
Max spoke up. "Uhh... Jasper got into ... That stuff..."
Gwen cringed. "The shit tastes horrible, how can you even stand it, " she mutters is displeasure
"I'm a vampire Gwen..." David looked at her and smiled. Max started laughing.
"Yeah! Did you forget!?..."
"Right... Max is there any more left of did Jasper have it all?" She plops herself next to David.
Jasper rubbed the back of his neck.
"I'm sorry man... I didn't mean to..."
David looked at Jasper and smiled.
"It's fine I understand... You were... Out of it..."
Max rolled his eyes.
"Yeah but it's still all over the kitchen!..."
David sat up to quickly and winced in pain. "Wh-what?... Like all over? Or ALL over?..." Jasper hid his face in the blankets.
"Uhhg I'm so sorry!..."
"More cleaning for me I guess," she sighed. "Well your gonna have to drink from one of us aren't you." She groaned.
David looked at her and frowned. "I'm not in the mood for this..."
Max looked up at Gwen and sighed. "Yeah don't be funny!..."
"I'm not trying to be! We can't just go to town because that's a half an hour drive from here and we are the only ones around here!" Her head fell onto the headboard of her bed and she groaned. "Why? Does anyone have a better idea that doesn't include licking the kitchen clean?"
Max perked up. "What about the poacher?..."
David looked at Max. Jasper unburied his head and sighed.
"He hurt dad and now he's gonna pay for it!..." max smiled.
