A pack of Angels

Sabrina leaned over Kelly, pulling her shirt up and unwrapping the white bandages to reveal the ugly cuts that covered Kelly's deathly pale abdomen, disappearing up her chest. Kris watched her with mild amusement. Her touches were extremely gentle as she warmed snow in her hands to wash and clean the wounds. It seemed almost like a ritual.

Yes, this was odd. She remembered Sabrina being edgy, almost always. She remember her being always hyper. Neurotic. Now she was eerily calm. Gentle. She had never seen her like that. She was so changed.

Kelly shivered to the cold touch. Sabrina lowered herself even more and whispered a few calming words in her ear. The taller woman tenderly covered her friend again and searched for Kris' eye contact. Kris stepped closer and helped her ease Kelly on her back again. She got up with a grunt of effort and made a few testing steps. Then, she followed Kris once more into the snow.

It was night time. The man with the grey hair was sat in a comfortable office chair. He had his back turned to the tall man with the dirty clothes in front of him. James, to be exact, James who had a shirt stained of blood of various people.

''Fist its just Duncan.'' the man said. James cleared his throat lowly. ''Then James, then I send you after her and you do what? You lose her.'' the man continued.

''Mr O' Neal I...''

''Silence! You lose a woman with a head trauma who could not even stand last time she tries. You chase a woman who didn't have the strength to get off the floor and you lose her!'' he growled.

James loosened his tie uncomfortably. ''But then... then I...''

''Then you find her. You tie her up. You blind fold the rest. And you do what?! You lose her again! You lose a defenceless, tied up woman, who got her head banged up so good she probably has no idea where the hell she is!''

''But she hit me sir!'' James shouted in frustration.

''She hit you?! She wasn't supposed to be ABLE to hit you!'' Doug yelled, and rising to his feet slammed his hand on the desk in front of him, making the papers on it flutter. ''Get your ass out there with the rest of your men and find her!'' He leaned closer to his face and whispered. ''Or it will be you in this basement next week. ''

Sabrina grunted in effort once more before Kris suggested a stop. She knew she couldn't take turns with Bri. Somehow the woman was driven by plain adrenaline, something Kris was not. It was hard enough without Kelly's weight on her back. She was so cold and moving through the snow was getting harder with each step she took.

Finally Sabrina agreed. It was the moment she was starting to put Kelly on a cleared patch of land that they heard the rushed footsteps. She tilted her chin upwards. Was it help? She could not know. She could not count on Charlie for help. To her Charlie was just a foggy voice over an intercom and with time this voice had faded. She could not recall it anymore.

Was it them? A bullet buzzed somewhere on her left. Crap. Had they seen them?! She could hear them move, not very close but not very far too. She pushed Kris behind a bush and laid Kelly down. She heard them approach.

''Are you sure you saw something?!'' the heavyset man growled. The other nodded, but the Angels could not see that. The taller man sighed. ''I saw something moving this way. I don't see it now. They stopped. They're hiding.''

''It could be just an animal man...'' the heavy guy said and kept walking.

They passed them by and stopped a few hundred feet away. Sabrina looked nervously at Kris, chewing her bottom lip. Then, she took a deep breath and let out a loud howl, as close to a wolf's as she could. And much to her surprise another one echoed through the woods in response. And then another. And another. Kris shot a terrified look at Sabrina, who had a grimace of horror on her face. ''Ooops...'' she whispered.
