Well here is chapter two! Hope you guys love it!
I ran fiercely through the forest, two wendigos hot on my trail. Probably not Neal's version of staying safe, but wendigos were small game to me. As a Halfling I could outrun, out hunt, out smart, and even kill them. I would too, but the brothers needed something to take their minds off the danger looming over us. Over me. Again.
Their way of doing that? Using me as live bait to lure their kill to them.
Kami, I loved my family.
I dove over a log, rolling to my feet. I always stayed just out of the reach of the monsters. One of their poisonous claws nicked my skin. I gasped as the poison stung through my veins. I felt my demon coming out. I bit it back knowing it wouldn't be good if I held it back to long. The poison couldn't kill me but it would hurt me and hinder my movements.
I stumbled through the woods when suddenly they were gone. I spun around, letting my demon half have at the poison. The wendigos lay dead at the brother's feet.
"Thanks boys," I hissed, my fangs bringing my voice out in a hiss.
"Sure thing," they said, breath heaving from exertion. Melinda and Jessica emerged from the vast forest. Melinda walked over to me inspecting my wound. Jessica was getting supplies from the wendigos for my spells.
"You gonna be okay?" Sam asked.
"She'll be fine," Melinda said wrapping a cloth around my arm to staunch the bleeding. "It'll be healed up in an hour." I nodded in agreement, already feeling my demon receding as it absorbed the poison.
"You will need to be going soon," came a grim voice behind us. I knew it was Cas and I reigned in the urge to spin and it.
"What's new angel wings?" I asked, stepping back after turning to him.
"The druid priestess' are arriving in New York," he said.
"Which clan?" I deadpanned.
"Both fighting for the crown. The McCord's and MacCallum's. This may lead to an actual battle or even a war," he warned.
"Bloody delightful," I growled.
"The MacCallum's don't know of your protectorate, but your aunt is going to visit him. She may be followed."
"Let's go!" I said, quickly turning and walking briskly back to the car. Jessica, Dean, Sam, and Melinda glanced at each other before running after me.
"Wait up!" Jessica called after me. I didn't slow up. They would catch me. I had to get going. They finally caught me when we got to the Impala. I jerked the door open and slid in the car.
"Come on people!" I shouted, anxious to get going. If Neal didn't live in a city I would have flown on Astral. Everyone slipped into the car, Dean cranking it and preparing for a day long road trip.
"Cas could be mistaken," Melinda said, turning to me.
"Until my enemies are gone I have to assume the worst. Rule number four. Remember?" I asked, leaning anxiously against the window.
Smudge the glass in this car and you'll be washing the whole damn thing," Dean declared.
"You gonna make me, pretty boy?" I asked sarcasm kicking in full force. He glared at me in the mirror. I smirked and stuck my tongue out childishly. Melinda and Sam thought it funny.
"Melinda, could you do something to make Lindsey settle?" Jessica asked.
"Sorry, you know the rules. No spell works on her."
"Damn. Can we tie her to the roof?"
"Sorry. She knows all our rope tricks."
"Knock her out?"
"With what?"
"Gah!"
I suppressed a snicker at their pain. This was gonna be a hectic trip.
I know it was super short. I promise the next chapter is much longer.
The Tuneless Siren: I could kick your butt in the next chapter. Until then enjoy this.
DeansTrueGirl: Glad you enjoy it.
