Renard's POV

"Done," Terra said and pocketed her small screwdriver. She got into the passenger seat of my suv and slammed the door behind her.

"Are you sure this is going to work?" I asked her.

"I put a rental cars license plates on yours. If they trace the plates it goes back to a Prius which was rented by a Kara Thrace, which is a different name then the apartment," she winced.

"Are you okay?" I asked her.

"Just drive," I pulled out of the parking garage and speed away from my apartment building. "Where are Diana and Adalind?" she asked me.

"They went out with Kelly I sent her a message through Meisner that the apartment had been compromised."

"Good, now we have to find someplace we can stay for a while." She was turning very pale very fast.

"I know just the place,"

~OO~

I pulled up to the run down cabin that Nick had his first encounter with a wesen. I never went here so I doubted anyone would think about looking for us here. Terra got out of my SUV before I even fully stopped.

"This place will do," she said and adjusted her backpack.

"Nobody will find us here," I said as I got out of my car, "the last time I was here was to bring in a dead Blutbad." Which wasn't the exact truth.

"I need to secure the perimeter before anyone goes inside," she told me. I looked at her and her face had grown even paler. I could tell she was hurt but I wasn't sure where yet. She pulled out her gun and started walking around the cabin and that when I saw the blood on her right leg.

"Why didn't you tell me you were hurt?" she stopped and her face twisted in pain.

"How about we were running for our lives," she was still in a lot of pain. She took a step with her injured leg and fell to the ground. I went to her side of my car and she was leaning against the door.

"We need to take care of that before it gets worse," I told her.

"Its fine," she said through her teeth.

"No it's not," I picked her up off the ground. I took her inside and I set her down on the old couch. I knelt down in front of her and pushed her pants up. Terra made a sharp gasp as the hem stopped right on top of the wound. "Take your jeans off," I told her.

"No," she said in an annoyed and pained tone.

"The only way I can fix your leg is if you take you jeans off." She didn't look as she started to undo her jeans. I looked away to make her feel more comfortable. Once I heard her jeans hit the floor I looked back at her leg. I was stunned to see that there were more scars on her lower body. These scars seemed to be as old, or maybe even older than the ones that I already knew about.

"Do you have a first aid kit?" I asked her.

"In my backpack along with a small scotch," I looked up at her. "It's for my nightmares or in this case if I get shot." I grabbed her back and I found the small white box and the bottle of scotch she took off her plane. I opened the bottle and pour some on her leg. She winced and gasped in pain and the cool liquid poured over her skin.

"It looks like the bullet went deep into your leg and maybe up against the bone," I told her as I looked at her wound.

"Ya think? There's no exit wound of course it still in there!" she yelled at me. I ignored her and poured some of the scotch on my hands. I took a pair of medical pliers and I went in. she let out a sharp scream as they dug into her flesh and gripped around the bullet. I pulled out the bullet and more blood came pouring out. Terra dug her nails into the old couch and let out another scream.

"It's out," I told her.

"Cauterize it," she told me, "better be safe then have an infection right?" I nodded. "There she be a lighter in there too. Use it on the pliers and go back in." I did as she said and I heated the pliers.

"This is going to hurt," I told her and I went back in. Terra let out a blood curtailing scream.

Terra's pov

My head rested against the dusty arm rest as Sean smoothed the bandage over my leg. Once done he looked at me with a hand on my face.

"You're really pale," he muttered. I was too weak to try to say anything sarcastic. "I'm going to have Nick go get some supplies is there anything to want me to tell him to get you?"

"A pony would be nice," I smiled. That go Sean to smile as well. He grabbed an old blanket and draped it over my body.

"Get some rest," he said. He got up and went to leave the room.

"Sean?" he turned back. "Thanks," he nodded and I passed out. I could say that it was just black in those moments but that would be a lie. Flashes of my aunt and her killer's faces flashed by my eyes. He was laughing as she died and as I screamed. I sat up from my spot and I looked around. It was dark outside and there was a fire going. I sighed and I laid back down in my dusty spot. It had all just been a dream thankfully. I closed my eyes again so I could get more sleep. There was a loud crash and I sat up again.

"Sean?!" I called. No answer. I got off of the couch and winced as pain shot through my leg. I hugged the closet wall and I looked out into the hall. "Sean?" I yelled looking toward the kitchen. I saw movement so I walked down that hallway. "Sean?" I called him again. When I got there I found him looking out the window. "Sean is everything okay?" I asked breaking away from the wall. I limp up behind him and I touch his shoulder. He turned around and it wasn't him.

"Hello Ms. Reed," Viktor gave me a cruel smile. My blood ran cold and I backed away slowly.

"Viktor? Where Sean?" fear was building in the pit of my stomach.

"He's here," he smiled. I kept backing away from him till my small body bumped into a much larger one. I looked behind me and there was Sean nailed to the wall, dead.

I bolted up screaming with tears falling down my face.

"Terra it's okay!" Large hands grabbed ahold of my face. "Terra!" I opened my eyes and focused of the face in front of mine. "It was just a dream," Sean told me in a soothing tone. More tears started falling from my eyes and I wrapped my arms around his neck and I cried.

"I'm sorry," I cried. My small body was shaking against his large stone body.

"Hey it's okay," he whispered and smoothed the back of my head.

"Everything is my fault," I cried into his shoulder.

"What is?" he pulled my face around so he can look into my eyes.

"I shouldn't have come back," I cried, "you would have been fine without me." Sean didn't say anything to me. He didn't even look at all fazed by my crying, that made me cry even more. It was too late for everything so I pulled away from him. "Leave me alone," without a word he left the room. I grabbed the dusty couch cushion and I cried into it.

Renard's POV

I listened to Terra crying by herself tell she was asleep once again. Part of me wanted to go back in there while she was awake and hold her till she was done. But the rest of me was still angry with her. Terra was right, we would have been fine without her and that she should have never have come back. Every time I think that though I hate myself more than I do her. That made me wish that I didn't use the rest of that scotch on her wound. Someone knocked on the front door of the cabin and I went on defense mode. I got off the kitchen floor and went out the back door with my gun at hand. I snuck quietly around to the front where I hear a car engine running.

"Captain it's me!" Nick yelled. I looked around the corner and found Nick alone.

"Did you bring everything?" I asked and holstered my gun. Burckhardt was startled for a second as I came around the corner.

"Is she okay?" Nick asked.

"She's asleep on the couch," I told him.

"You said she was shot."

"I took care of it." I let him inside and he went instantly to the living room. I watched relief wash over him as he saw her small sleeping form on the couch.

"I stopped by your apartment," he told me, "it was crawling with Verrat and FBI."

"Not surprised since one of their guys put three bullets in me," the memory was still fresh in my mind.

"You should also know, that my mother brought Adalind and Diana over to my house again."

"Is Diana okay?"

"Other than wondering where you are, she's fine."

"Tell her I'm going to call her tonight."

"okay." He looked back at Terra. "I'm going to give you the stuff before Juliette decides to strangle Adalind while I'm gone."

"What's going to keep me from strangling Terra?" I asked him.

"Get to know each other again," he shrugged. That wasn't an answer I wanted.

Nick's pov

"So where are they?" Adalind snapped.

"They're someplace safe," I told her.

"I don't believe you," he jaw stuck out in irritation.

"I snuck back in the building and found blood whose was it?" my mother asked.

"Someone was shot?!" Both Adalind and Juliette said.

"It was Terra," I told them.

"Oh," Adalind stopped caring at that point.

"Well, is she okay?" Juliette asked.

"Captain Renard took care of it now they're staying low for a couple of days. Meisner is going to be gathering information so we'll know more soon," I told them. "Now what you need to do is lay low a couple of days as well," I told my mother and Adalind.

"I guess I'll make up the spare room," Juliette said and walked away. My mother fallowed Juliette and Adalind stayed behind.

"What am I going to tell Diana when she asks about Sean?" she kept sticking her jaw out.

"He's going to call her to night," she nodded and walked off.

Adalind's pov

Diana started to fall asleep next to me as she waited for Sean to call her.

"Daddy?" she mumbled with her eyes closed.

"He should be calling soon," I told her as I ran my fingers through her blond curls. At that moment my phone started ringing. Diana opened her eyes as I pulled my phone out of my purse. I looked at the caller Id and I recognized it as one of Sean's phones. "It's daddy," I told Diana. I picked up the phone. "Sean?" I asked.

"How's Diana?" he asked confirming it was him. I turned the phone on speaker.

"Daddy?" Diana spoke in her sweet voice.

"Hey Diana," I could hear Sean smiling on the other end.

"Daddy when are you coming home?" she asked.

"I don't know princess," he told her. "Daddy has to hide for a while like you and mommy,"

"What about knight?" she asked. I rolled my eyes when she mentioned Terra.

"She's here," he told her.

"I wanna say hi!" she smiled.

"I'm sorry she's sleeping right now,"

"Oh," she pouted.

"How's mommy?" he asked.

"Grumpy," she told him.

"When isn't she?" Diana started giggling.

"Hey!" I defended. I guess it was true but I still didn't want them to be talking about me like I wasn't here.

"It's on speaker?"

"Yes," Diana giggled.

"Next time warn me Diana!" Diana giggled.

"Story?" I rolled my eyes and I gave my phone to her as Sean started telling her an old story his mother had told him. Once he reach the middle of the story Diana was fast asleep in my arms.

"You can stop now she's asleep," I told him.

"Take care of her while I'm away okay?" he told me.

"As long as Viktor doesn't get his hands on her she'll be fine,"

"I'll make sure that doesn't happen," he promised.

Okay well I figured that if I didn't end this chapter here I would probably write the ending at some point. So I hope you like chapter 10. Even though Renard was kind of a dick to Terra at the end.
