Scarlet heard Jess awaken again and decided to keep her company. It had been a hard night, trying to keep the wolf inside her at bay.
She jumped down from the top bunk and landed silently next to the girl.
"Are you okay?" She said, worrying about the nervous girl. "You keep on having nightmares."
Tasha looked towards River, who had flopped down onto the bed, debating whether to wake her up for breakfast. But she decided against it, knowing that River would definitely need her sleep. Tasha then cleared her throat.
"Okay guys, we are planning on leaving tonight." She said gently to the chomping pack. "So pack whatever you may need and then we can set off."
Scarlet looks towards Malik.
"How about you? Are you okay?"
Scarlet stood up from floor and walked over to the door, investigating it. She banged on it a few times with her fist, each one getting louder and harder. She wanted answers and intended to get them.
Tasha nodded at the group.
"Thats fine! Do you think that you can make it back by tonight?"
Scarlet glared at the cameras.
"I think they're still watching us." She looked towards a large locked door. "I can sense many other men out there, but if we're to get pass them, we will need power. A very strong power.....
.....that I've been holding in all night."
She looked towards Malik and Jess.
"Please promise me that you won't hate me after this."
She turned back towards the door and finally let out the monstrous power that she'd been holding in. It flowed through her body, giving her a warm sensation. She closed her eyes and prepared herself for the transformation. Ina round 10 seconds, it was over and she had reached her true final form. She opened her once green eyes to reveal yellow ones.
She quickly looked back to Malik and Jess to see their reactions before walking towards the door and beginning to bash it. After a few hits, it smashed open.
BTW this is what Scarlet's true form looks like XD
Scarlet looked towards Malik and grunted a thanks. She was happy that she had some support in protecting Jess because with the number of men there were, she wasn't sure if she could take them on her own.
Scarlet didn't want to hurt anyone, but if things got too extreme, she was willing to take those chances.
At first everyone seemed frozen. All of the men simply stared at her. But when she started growling, they all went into action.
Tasha walked outside to find Jane. She was outside with Lilly.
"Hey Jane!" She said, sitting beside her. "Do you want to come with us?" Tasha smiled gently. "We could really use someone with your skills!"
Scarlet watched Jess run outside and turned around, seeing many men trying to follow. With one wave of her arm, most of the where on the floor, scratches covering their bodies, however, the few that remained were all carrying chains and large tazors.
Sh*t.
Scarlet once again attempted to swipe at them, only to be caught in the chains.
Tasha nodded her head at the idea.
"Plus," she said, holding one finger up. "We'll be able to get more ground covered in less time."
She was also happy that Jane would be accompanying them and the idea of the long house. She looked back to their current household and knew that not everyone would be able to fit in there comfortably. Also if they were going to make additions to the pack, they would definitely need another place to stay.
However, she still thought that Lilly and Ali, if he came back, could still live there, it was originally their home after all.
Scarlet grunted a 'Thanks' and headed towards the door. She was blinded by the light of the sun for a little while, but it eventually darkened and she ran outside towards Jess. She then turned around to check if Malik was behind her.
The barrier of light he had created was by far impressive. The men seemed to be dazed, by she wasn't sure because she didn't get a close look. She didn't mind though, she was just happy that they had escaped.
Scarlet could only simply stare at Malik's new appearance. However, when she realized that he was right and that they weren't out of the battlefield yet. She looked around for anywhere they could take cover.
The woods.
The also then looked back towards the barrier, which the men were behind, desperately trying to escape. There was no doubt that there were others who weren't trapped and that they would be coming soon. Scarlet wanted to get Jess and Malik out of here as soon as possible.
She remembered that Samuel was also at here, but she had no idea where he'd gone. But that didn't matter right now. She knew that he could look after himself.
She looked towards Malik and gestured to her back, trying to imply that she wanted him to climb on.
But if he wanted to run on his own, she wouldn't mind. She just wanted him safe.
Scarlet nodded in understanding. She knew what he meant by making Jess ride. She had no power to protect herself, so it was her and Malik's responsibility.
Scarlet ran to Jess, grabbing the collar of her jacket and throwing her over her shoulder and onto her back. Once she was sure that Jess was holding on tightly enough, she began to run into the woods and occasionally looked backwards to check on Malik.
Tasha thought about the idea. In reality, she was worried about getting split up and possibly losing members of her pack. However, she also wanted to keep everyone safe. Maybe if they did split up, they could get more ground covered and gain more information.
"I guess that could work?" She said questioningly. "But I'm worried about losing people."
She leaned back on her hands with her legs stuck out in a vertical line.
Tasha also liked the idea of code names. However, she thought about her name and she knew what it meant.
"Hey!" She said with a laugh. "I don't have blond hair!" She smiled.
Scarlet quickly looks up to Jess on her back, giving her a quick small smile before focusing ahead once again. She'd jumped over many roots and logs in order to keep Jess on her back.
Suddenly, she realized that they'd reached a road and Scarlet instantly skidded to a halt. The road was busy and she knew that she couldn't just run across the road. That would cause too much trouble.
Scarlet crouched down and slightly tilted her body to let Jess off. She then motioned to the road stating that she couldn't go across.
Scarlet then looked towards Malik and gestured towards Jess, trying to tell him to take her and run whilst she led the men away and found somewhere to cross the road.
Tasha laughed at his response.
"Fair enough." She said with a big smile.
The thought of crossing a busy road terrified Scarlet. Covered by the bushes, she looked left and right down the road, trying to find somewhere quiet. Then she saw a junction not to far down the road where she could cross and not be seen.
She nudged Malik and motioned towards it, stating that was where she was going to go.
( ACCEPTED :D)
Tasha looked at the small circle and smiled. She believed that these people weren't just friends or pack members, they were like family to her.
"Well," Tasha said sitting up and brushing off her hands. "I need to go and pack. As do you three!" She playfully point at Taiyo, River and Jane.
Yeah sure! Sounds like an awesome idea!!
