Evidence of Their Passage
"This way." Parvati grabbed the older girl's hand as they ran from the footsteps close behind them.
"They went this way!" a cry sounded, and it was closer than Parvati anticipated.
"This way!" Parvati urged, and she pulled her companion by the arm as they disappeared between two tall trees.
"Par…vati," Fleur huffed, collapsing onto her knees. "I can't go on."
"Yes you can!" Parvati encouraged. "Come on, they'll find us!"
"Let them take me," Fleur sobbed. "You go."
Parvati shook her head. "I'll not leave you." She pulled Fleur to her feet by her armpits and pulled on her hand. The footsteps drew nearer, as did the voices.
"Go!" Fleur cried, and she collapsed again.
Parvati shook her head, kneeling. "I'll not."
"Evidence they went this way. A footstep!"
Parvati stared into the distance. Any moment now and they'd find them. They'd be caught, possibly killed. She wrapped her arms around Fleur and drew her close.
"I'll stay with you." She kissed her forehead. "Forever. Until death."
It was only moments before they appeared. A cruel smile fell across Fenrir's face.
Parvati held Fleur closer, but did not flinch. She watched the werewolf with contempt, a daring look.
"You made it too obvious, ladies," Fenrir sneered. "I'm almost disappointed in the chase."
Parvati said nothing, but held Fleur tightly.
Fenrir grinned, and then he lunged.
Neither fought back.
