Chapter 7: Hell Hath No Fury
---The Swamp---
The dark figure came into light as Lily and Wolf froze, turning around to see the creature.
The two stirred and opened their eyes, gazing up at the figure.
Wolf dropped his mushroom bacon-cabob.
A woman stood before them.
The woman had long golden blonde hair that was pulled up in a high ponytail, with long
bangs hanging down by her face and touching her almost flawless skin that seemed to
glow. Her eyes were a shining silver and her ears were pointed, that of an elven maiden.
A bow and arrows were slung over her shoulder on a leather strap. She had on a blue
piece of silken cloth covering her chest that showed off her mid-drift quite well and a
white cloth tied around her hips that held up a short skirt that hugged to her slender figure
and slit at the left side, exposing her whole leg up to her waistline.
Wolf's tongue nearly fell out of his mouth as his jaw dropped.
"Who are you?" The woman demanded.
"I-I'm Lily...and this is Wolf." Lily stammered, standing up.
"Who are you?" Wolf said, looking her over again and standing up too.
"My name is Lilith. Who I am is another story entirely...Why are you here?" "Uh..." Wolf stammered, still trying to get the words out as he stared at Lilith up and
down. Could you really blame him?
"Right now we are trying to find a way out of this swamp...ours is also a long story..."
Then it hit her.
'Who I am is another story entirely...' the words echoed in her head.
'She must be the...witch...things aren't always as they seem...'
Lily's eyes grew wider and she jumped to her feet, taking Wolf with her as she grabbed
his arm.
"You won't trick us...we know who you really are now." Lily narrowed her eyes at the
woman.
Wolf blinked, "We do?"
"We do." She replied, still staring warily at her.
Lilith looked Lily over and then smiled, holding back a laugh.
"Oh, I see...I'm not who you think I am."
"Who are you then?"
"I am certainly not the swamp witch, I can tell you that much," she replied, as if reading
Lily's mind.
Lily was a bit confused now. She looked over to the cottage and back to her.
"Witch is in the basement." She said, gesturing toward the house. "But I wouldn't go
down there if I were half as scared of this place as you are."
"I am not afraid...I just...didn't know what to think. Things-"
"Aren't always as they seem. Yes, I've been there before and I remember it vividly. I
want to forget although I cannot."
"Could you tell us your story?"
Lilith sighed and sat down by them as Lily did the same, taking the bow and arrows off
the sling over her shoulder and placing it down on the ground and laying a had over them,
crossing her legs.
"Elves are an ancient race. We are peaceful but great warriors and wish for unity in the
in-between worlds. What they do in the Aboveground and in the Sub- Underground
worlds is their business and we o not take kindly to bloody war broken out for no reason
at all..." Lily and Wolf leaned in, listening intently to Lilith. She spoke her words with
passion.
"...You see...the king of the goblins had stolen my heart in the golden ages of the forest
when goblins and faeries and elves had lived together....but after the war between worlds
he would no longer speak to me...he pledged war against my people in the 7th kingdom
after being banished to the far corner...and he will pay for what he has done..."
The elven maiden tightened her grip on her bow.
Wolf smiled playfully at her, "Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn."
"Indeed." She said, glancing up at him and smiling half-heartedly.
Lilith paused for a moment and blinked, glancing at a furry something waving back and
forth behind Wolf.
"What is that?" She said, tilting her head to the side.
Wolf's eyes bulged for a moment as her grabbed it and lifted himself briefly, sitting back
down on whatever it was he was trying so hard to hide.
Lily also caught a glimpse of it.
"What was that, Wolf?"
"N-nothing." He scratched his ear, whimpering slightly.
Lilith smiled maliciously and reached under him, pulling out his-
"You have a tail?" Lily said, smiling slightly and trying not to laugh while poking at it.
Wolf yelped as Lilith pulled his tail out and rubbed his ass, "Hey that hurt."
Lilith laughed a little, covering her mouth.
"Yes..." He looked down.
"Why were you trying to hide it from us?" Lilith said, tilting her head to the side showing
hanging hoops silver earrings on her pointed elf ears.
"Well...people don't usually welcome...a werewolf, ya know..and since I just met you I
didn't want that to be a first impression..." He sighed and then Lilith smiled sweetly at
him, lifting his chin to look at her.
"I've delt with worse, believe me." He grinned wolfishly and sat back up straight.
"I think we better get going. The swamp witch may be rotting downstairs but I wouldn't
want to be stuck here after dark."
"But the sun is already going down. We might not make it and end up even deeper into
the swamp." Lily pointed out, looking to wolf.
"Yea...but where are we gonna stay?" Wolf asked, turning his attention to the two girls.
Lilith smirked and turned her head to the right, so Lily and Wolf did the same only to
find that they were staring directly at the swamp witch's cottage.
Wolf blinked, "Ohhhh no! No way in seven hells am I going in...there!" He said pointing
to the cottage and blinking again in surprise, then stomping his foot and following after
the other two who were already walking inside the house.
The girls pulled open the rotted wood door together and the house shook with it, then
walked casually inside as if there wasn't a thing to be afraid of.
Wolf mumbled incoherently to himself as he followed after them hesitantly and only a
few words were audible, "...Are all women like this or just the ones I know?..."
"Oh come on," said Lilith in a mock-exasperated sigh acting as if she was tired of him.
"I'm not going to help you two defeat Jareth if I have to listen to you bitch the whole
time we're running this maze...and remember that's 13 hours..."
She felt around in the darkness and her hands rested upon a candelabra and she snapped
her fingers, emitting a flame from them and lit the candle.
Lily stared at the flame in awe for a moment whispering, "Elven magic...You're going to
help us?" She blinked, looking back to Lilith.
The elven maiden nodded, "It's polite to give credit where credit is due and I'd say the
goblin king needs some personal payback for what he's done..."
The room was illuminated as all of the other candelabras lit themselves, by magic of
course, once the one candle had been lit.
"Hm....convenient." Wolf said, letting his eyes adjust to the light.
They all looked around the small house, or what was left of it and Lily gasped lightly
It looked like a regular abandoned cottage apart from one enormous black cauldron in the
corner and you typical shelves full of spell books and glass colored bottles and jars of
god-knows-what.
Wolf's eyes grew wide and the two women had to grab him by his shirt and hold him
back from running out the door as he kept saying things like, "No way! There is about a
snowball's chance in hell that I am staying here for more than three minutes! I've had my
share of this creepy death trap. I'm outta here! I don't want to hear any more things that
go bump in the night, I'm through!!"
After they gave one last heave to pull him away from the doorway he jerked back and
upon turning around, fell on top of Lilith so that their eyes met and locked.
Lilith blushed slightly and blinked as they still gazed at one another.
Lily stared at them for a moment, speechless. The phrase 'Love is in the Air' came to
mind and she tried to hide a smile.
Then just as Lily was about to interrupt, Wolf's hand slid down casually to Lilith's
waist...then a little further south...
"LECHER!"
Wolf staggered as they both stood up, a red mark on his cheek that was shaped exactly
like Lilith's hand.
Lily giggled like a schoolgirl as Lilith sat down in the farthest corner from
Wolf and sat down next to her as they all readied to go to sleep.
"He's not really that bad once you get to know him, Lilith."
"Lily, how long have you known Wolf?" She said, raising a brow and turning her head to
the human girl that sat beside her on one of the blankets that they had found in the
cupboards.
"Er..." Lily blinked, smiling a little, "Well...A few hours maybe..." She looked down.
Lilith sighed and smirked, "Yea...that's what I mean."
"But really he isn't."
"Okay, I'll take your word for it..." Lily smiled thinking she finally got through to her.
"...But I am still not sleeping anywhere near him..." Lilith smiled lightly, closing her
eyes and leaning back on the wall. Lily sighed and leaned back too, giving up.
A sudden extremely loud crash of thunder sounded out. Lily and Lilith jumped, both
yelling out at the same time.
"AAAAHHHH!"
"AAAAHHHH!"
They scrambled to their feet and practically leaped over to Wolf who smiled as Lilith
clung to his side, looking out of the window that had burst open with the rain pouring in.
The hooting of an owl could be heard faintly out side and the window shut almost
instantly and Lily's heavy breathing calmed. Lilith relaxed slightly and noticed her
position. She blinked and tried to back up a few inches, seeing as she was pressing up
against him, her cheeks turning crimson red.
A flash of lightning lit up the few windows in the cottage and she scooted back to him.
A few moments later everyone had drifted off to sleep, thinking it safe now that they
were out of the swamp, so to speak.
Wolf smiled watching the girls sleep silently.
Wolf placed a chaste kiss on Lilith's forehead, which was a huge act of chivalry on his
part, considering his...wolf-ness and the amazing amount of sexual frustration built up
that he flaunted almost playfully...
Only a minute late her eyes fluttered open and she happened to find his hand sneaking
down south once again. She blinked and raised her hand.
"LECHER!!"
