Disclaimer: Well let's state the facts. I do not what so ever under any
circumstance own any part of Wolf Lake. Hey the facts suck and so do they
for canceling Wolf Lake. Damn them scuba Steve! Now I am gonna go back to
my fantasy world where I do own them...mwhahaha. BTW Thanks to all who read
and a special thanks to those of you who have reviewed. You keep my muse
happy(.

Before the elevator touched the basement floor, Sophia heard the lift touch ground. But worst of all was the scent that lay beyond the two mechanical doors. The smell of the forest mingled with testosterone, the scent of Lucas Cates. Sophia ran back down the hallway. Her body aching, but her mind set on not letting Luke catch her. She knew of only one thing to do in this situation. She knew she had to run. Run for her life. Sophia heard the doors open, and a few seconds after that Luke had called out her name. 'Damn' she thought. Sophia knew he had smelled her. After the change her smell was more of a spicy vanilla mixed in with her otherness. A sent that no fragrance line could ever come up with.
**_**
Luke breathed in her sweet smell that was Sophia. His eyes flashing amber; a grin on his face. 'Where are you running to Sophia?' he thought as he heard her foot steps going in the opposite direction towards the stairs. All his senses expanded to encompass his prey. Luke ran after her.
**_** (A/N: A song to go here would be Jay Gordon or Orgy's: Slept for so Long. It is off the Queen of the Damned soundtrack. If you can't get it look up the lyrics and you'll see why this rock song fits the scene. Toodles.)
Sophia heard Luke coming after her. But even with him being a male skinwalker in his youth, and with all the agile-ness he could muster...he still couldn't keep up with Sophia. She took the stairs 3 at a time with out breaking a sweat, but causing her muscles that were still regenerating to cramp. Luke was just coming up the stairs as Sophia burst through the doors heading towards the hospital's exit. She ran into some people causing them to scream after her. But she didn't care. She needed out. Out of the hospital, and out of Wolf Lake. She heard screams of fright as she ran through the glass doors shattering them, but they didn't slow her down. Nothing would slow her down. She knew her eyes were shimmering gold by now. Her senses had picked up her surroundings. She heard Luke in pursuit along with Vivian, and a few other skinwalkers.

"Shit she's fast," Sherman exhaled climbing into his old beat up Ford truck. Vivian, Matt and Sherman had been talking in the hallway when they heard the exploding glass. Vivian and Matt took off on foot leaving behind Sherman.
Vivian had already made the call out to the skinwalkers in the vicinity...they had a runner on their hands.

Sophia loped off hitting the forest before anyone behind her. She could run all day with out tiring. Her body knew when to leap or twist. She was flying. Her fear coursed through her body mixed with adrenaline. She heard the howl of wolves up ahead and swerved towards the road. She knew the county line was just up ahead. If she hit that, they wouldn't be able to track her after awhile. Running across the road Sophia didn't see Sherman's old truck speeding its way down the cement path.
**_**
Sherman had been changing the radio station, when he looked up and saw a blur. He had clipped Sophia sending her tumbling to the side of the road with Sherman coming to a screeching halt. The smell of burnt rubber and blood filled the air.
**_**
Sophia saw the streak of red heading at her the last minute allowing her to pivot away. The car struck her right leg taking her legs right from out under her. She saw the world flip before she felt the striking pain of her shoulder meeting the stump of a tree. Someone was turning her over making more bones crack. She could fill her lungs fill slowly with blood. She tasted the bile and blood rising in the back of her throat. Her lips opened letting a death rattle past each time more loudly than the last.
**_**
Sherman looked down at Sophia assessing the damage. A few of her ribs had cracked and torn a lung in the process. Her shoulder was dislocated and her leg was broken, but was in the process of mending. Even as Sophia was lying on the forest floor she was struggling to move away from her pursuers.
"Settle down Sophia...settle down it will be okay," Sherman soothed.
"Get away from me...," Sophia coughed. Her anger and fear clearly shown in her eyes.
Matt, Vivian, and Luke arrived at the scene. Matt kneeled on one side of Sophia and Luke on the other. Matt's worried eyes roved over his daughters' broken body.
"What the hell happened, Sherman," Matt roared. Matt's eyes glistened over. 'This can't be happening...not to Sophia,' he thought. "Sweetie....you're gonna have to flip...to speed up the healing."
Luke held Sophia's hand looking to her crumpled body. Her face in a grimace, blood on her teeth; she screamed clenching Matt's hand trying to squirm away from Luke. The color of a settling sun blazed across Sophia's eyes, and then she flipped.
Vivian who was standing close behind Matt gasped. It was true. Sophia's pelt was black. Sophia's eyes shone a fierce light that no skinwalker ever held. It was a mix of ever-changing hues.
