• "Be careful you two." Ryan said as we prepared to leave. "And after the rangers just go straight to your apartment and nothing else understand." He was walking to me.

    "I understand perfectly." I replied smiling. Talon walked over to us. "So you came to say goodbye as well."

    "No, came to come with. I went to check out the camp, there's about five of those bloody things, three wolves should be fine. " He explained. "Besides it would be nice to take a little break from being a leader."

    "Well see you three later." Ryan mumbled, not liking the idea of Talon coming with us. We started.

    "So Mr. Big guy." Kate said turning towards Talon and walking backwards. "Why did you really come with us."

    "Safety." Talon replied.

    "Right, and I came her to go to lollipop village." She said sarcastically. I laughed, Talon just shook his head and then looked at me. "You like her!"

    "What!" Me and Talon said in unison, which brought Ren in.

    "Whoa, reaction much." she said.

    "I do not like her." He said quickly, i looked down at the ground, not feeling they way he does. I was starting to like him, the big bad wolf has a soft side.

    "Sophia how do you feel towards him?" Ren asked.

    "Don't like him either, he's an a**." I lied, they went with it though. Talon studied me and sighed, muttering to himself. "Well, change of subject. Ren how close are you to this ranger."

    "He is a friend." She said smiling. "And we had a few fun nights together if you know what I mean." Talon burst into laughter. "Thanks for being so understanding Tal." She said shaking her head.

    "Sorry, its just you and the ranger." He laughed harder, I slapped him in the back of the head. "Hey."

    "Calm down Mr. Chuckles." I said, he frowned.

    "Are we there yet?" Kate asked. "My legs hurt."

    "Come piggy back ride." I said letting her on. She wrapped her legs around my waist and locked her fingers together. "Alight up there?"

    "Yeah." She said. I caught up to Ren and Talon who were talking.

    "So you don't have to walk anymore." Ren said she smiled. "Tal give me one." She hoped on his back and he fell a little bit but caught himself. "Please."

    "Your lucky your like a sister to me." He said getting up and letting her get situated.

    "Mush!" She yelled, Talon just looked at her. "Ok go." He chuckled and we were walking again. She hoped off about 15 minutes later.

    "Ren, we almost there?" Talon asked looking up at the sky which was starting to get dark.

    "Yeah, its a little ways ahead, bout 15 to twenty more minutes." She said.

    "Good." Kate hoped down and ran up to Ren leaving me and Talon alone.

    "Well, I get to see you apartment." He said breaking the silence.

    "Yeah." I mumbled.

    "Listen about earlier, I do like you."

    "Its just not a good idea for us, seeing you have the village to run."

    "Its not that either." He grabbed my wrist and turned me look at him. "I just don't want to hurt you. I'm not very good with showing emotion, or being romantic."

    "You think I care about that." I said, he smiled.

    "It just wouldn't work. We would fight all the time. We're opposites."

    "And opposites attract." I smirked and started walking away, he put his arm on a tree, stopping me in my tracks, his other arm blocked me going the other way. "What?"

    "I am trying to fight myself from doing this." He said harshly. "But its hard with that attitude."

    "Why than-" His lips were on mine. My arms wrapped around my neck as he lifted me up, my feet off the ground.

    "Hey lovebirds!" Ren yelled, Talon dropped me and I fell to the ground not catching myself.

    "Ouch." I punched Talon in the side. "That hurt."

    "Sorry she surprised me." He said, I just shook my head.

    "Come on you two, we're there." We ran up to see the look cabin in the middle of nowhere. The ranger was already out talking to Kate. He waved over to us.

    "Which one of you found her?" He asked.

    "I did." I said, he pulled me aside and I explained what I found. Making it sound like an animal attack instead of what really happened.

    "Thank you, we will get her back to town as soon as we can." He said shaking our hands. "Bye Ren."

    "Later James." She said, we walked back to the trees. "Ready you two?"

    "Always am." Talon noted, I shrugged and kissed me lightly. "I think you are."

    "Aww, you two are so cute together." We all got ready and then transformed, Ren was a tan wolf, and Talon was a large red brown wolf. I was white. They followed me to the town, I was glad my apartment was close to the forest. The dog next door was barking mad as we approached. Think naked people smelling of dog. Bound to make that thing go crazy. We walked into my apartment and I gave them clothes. I was glad that I still had some old clothes from living with my ex, they fit Talon just fine.

    "Nice place." Ren said. There were 15 messages waiting for me. I played them. Most of them from my ex, wanting me back and all that. Saying he didn't see me make it home. Sounding like a stalker.

    "Pack quickly." Talon said. "Only clothes." I nodded and packed a duffel bag full of clothes, I also grabbed my two swords that were my fathers. I loved them,and trained myself to fight with them. Then we were off back into the forest, and walking back to the village.
