-the next night-

Elias was in the garden in true form and he had taken Chise into his mouth and he growled softly.. He wouldn't let anyone come near them and he looked around and lashed out at everyone who tried to stop him.

Ruth growled, "hey let her go'' he said jumping up at him and tried to bite him. Elias growled and slashed at him and he snarled. Ruth yelped as he was hit and he fell to the ground bleeding from his side.. "Ch….I….s….e.. he said before collapsing and passing out from the pain and wound. Elias looked around and he bolted into the woods and he was running when he was struck with an arrow and he howled in pain. He fell to the ground and he let go of Chise and watched her fall out of his mouth and onto the ground. He tried to reach for her and he crawled over to her and picked her up by her shirt in his mouth and dragged her towards him…

Chise groaned as she slowly opened her eyes, She was bleeding from her side from where she was bit.. "Elias where are we why am I bleeding?" she asked.. Elias picked her back up into his mouth by her shirt and he limped off and found a grass field and he collapsed onto the grass.. He let her go and he panted.. Chise looked around, "oh your hurt are you alright?" she said trying to go to his side.. She winced as her wounds prevented her from going far.. She sat down and groaned..
Elias looked at her and he frowned, "I'm…..sorry… he said panting heavily and trying to let his body heal. He didn't know why he got so aggressive before he shifted this time.. and he felt horrible that he hurt her. He dragged himself over to her leaving a blood trail behind him. He licked her side and whimpered.

Chise winced and she sighed, "its alright I'm not mad at you, I know you can't control this form anymore'' she said wishing that they both weren't hurt. She let him lick her wound and it stopped bleeding and she sighed. '' we need to go back you need medical attention'' she said trying to get up but was pushed back down with a paw.. "Elias let me up'' she said struggling. Elias growled and shook his head, "no..stay'' he said laying his head down on her chest and not letting her get up.

Chise sighed, "alright fine but in the morning we are going back'' she said petting his head. Elias nodded and he closed his eyes and went to sleep and purred softly. Chise hoped their child was okay and she tried to stay awake, but she closed her eyes and feel asleep as well.
