Chapter 9: Rose(Again)

"Oh my god." I breathed, and barely pulled back when I was shoved out the way, and across the forest floor. As I scraped against wood and dirt, three people, including Snow's mother, quickly grabbed her and then started to walk away, the rest of the village watching them with their heads bowed. As soon as I stopped rolling, I jumped to my feet and raced after them. "Wait where are you taking her!?" I shouted, but none of them replied.

Oh well, I asked.

Grabbing a man, I socked him in the jaw with my elbow and then shoved him to the ground. At least, I tried, but he was a rock. KI jumped back as his swiped at me with his fingers. I remembered how Delasko's could stick through cement, and hold up his whole body; I do not want to get touched by those. As he missed, I feinted to his left, and then jumped at him, stabbing with my stake. It punctured and cut, and with a loud grunt, forced me away. I jumped back and held my stake behind me, circling him for another opening. Th other two had left him to fight me, and the rest of the village had moved with them. The sound of the forest filled the silence as my feet crunched the undergrowth and my breath came quickly. I never let my eyes drift from the bloody man, who regarded me with an expression of pity.

"It was a mistake to do that Vaitaga. I have no heart, and will not friend up to you like how Delasko did."I bit my lip from retorting, but I said something any way. "Delasko wasn't beaten by one Vaitaga though, he was way superior to you." I knew my insult sting, even though the man didn't bat an eyelash. All he said was, "I'm going to kill you now, before you say something you'll regret. "

Too bad the only thing I regret is not being able say that same thing to you." was my diss.

Roaring with flared nostrils, he shook his head rapidly, and morphed into a Twi-Wolf. His coat was a deep blue, and he stood at least six feet at the shoulder. His teeth were bared at me in animalistic outrage, and his pink irises flashed once, a split-second warning.

Oh Fuck. I turned and ran just as he took after me. My feet tore over the ground, and times I think I ran so fast I must've been on air at least once. Yet the wolf kept pace with me, and I saw he wasn't even trying, he was running with me as a dog would after a human during a leisurely walk. In prideful rage, I turned around with a shriek and we collided, falling in a heap.

He obviously wasn't expecting my tactic, and we thrashed. Me grappling, and it snapping its jaws at me , no longer playing. I slammed my fist into the Wolf's back left leg, and saw it kneel before it threw itself against me, and use its weight to pin me to a tree. I screamed as a branch went through my stomach, and blood stained the Wolf's flank. I slashed at it, and the creature retreated while I pushed myself off the branch. It was hard to breathe, and I gasped weakly, trying futilely to rise and run. The Wolf snarled and reengaged and I rolled out the way just as its teeth clamped on my ankle. I heard a snap, and then a crunch that drove me into a frenzy. The pain was too real, too strong, I was going under, losing myself, I couldn't focus at all.

As I hit the ground, I felt blood pouring of me, out of my open stump of a foot. The world didn't matter, I can't explain the texture of the ground to you, the pain I was in, because only one thought filled me.

I didn't have a foot anymore.

I just laid there, as the blood flowed out of me. I was dead, dead and bleeding. The Wolf came back, and gave me a toothy-grin before changing back. The man was naked, but he didn't seem to mind. He just walked over to me, and smiled.

"You Vaitaga are inferior, if only you had known that before you messed with me..." He laughed and started to leave when a fist went through his chest. The hand was red, and something still pulsed in it, as red fudge fell and dripped off. Three beats, and then the heart stopped. The man's eyes bulged as he looked down, and he made a last smile.

"Oh, so I do have one of those."

The hand pulled back, and the Wolfera fell forward. Five figures stalked across the ground, and then fifty. A whole army. I heard the faint clock of a gun's safety clicking off and then the shots begand. Someone kneeled next to me, and I faintly felt their face before the blood no longer would reach my fingertips. My hand fell away, but that didn't stop me from trying to bring it back. "Dimitri!" I croaked, reaching for him. His features were blurred, and his voice muffled, as if I was hearing through water..

"Roza, you are don't have much time left, but I can give you eternity. I can save you."he said softly, and I gave him what I felt was a weak smile. My vision flickered, my breath stopped, and my last words were,

"Save me, my love..."
