There was a dull ache in her shoulder as Selena slowly pushed the small bits of metal that had broken off the car off her body. As she grabbed the headlights of the broken car to pull herself forwards, her right shoulder felt like someone had stuck a rod into it, making it numb and causing her neck to feel like someone had slapped it with their full might.From the distance she heard a shout and saw Samson raising his arm, shaking the Solar Bonds. “KEY!!!” He shouted again.As Selena wobbled from right to left she thought over the choice before standing as tall as she could through the stiffness. “NO!!” She shouted back at him, seeing him lower his arm slowly and spit on the ground before turning his back to her as he resumed fighting through the horde rushing endlessly at him.“Looks like her highness can handle a little beat down.” Gibrail mocked her with his rumbly voice.Selena smiled. “A beating is easy compared to what you’re about to go through.” She taunted.As quick as it had
Driving his heel into the first thug, Samson sent him staggering backwards, pinballing between the others, forcing them off balance and creating some space. “Say it!” He shouted. Haley gulped an invisible, thick lump in her throat. “It’s not too great but it’s something,” She started, “My car’s not too far from here, if you can get us there, we can leave and then you can go and help Selena.” She stared at his back as he stood still. Samson thought over the plan as the thugs slowly picked themselves up. He realized that this was the only option they had left. He shook his head violently, getting rid of all doubt. “Fine!” He turned to her. With a nod, Haley started moving to her right, towards the swarm of thugs. “This way!” She navigated. One step at a time, Samson moved along with them, dancing around the group of frightened girls to ward off the growling thugs. After a few more steps they made it to a black sedan and the girls quickly hopped inside while Samson continued to chip
Samson looked around at the flaming bodies and singed cars. The memories of all the destroyed towns and villages popped into his head. All the werewolves he had slaughtered lying lifelessly on the ground in the dead of the night. All the times Lola would arrive and praise him for a job well done. The memories felt endless. ”Looks familiar doesn’t it?” Samson said to himself. Too familiar, Skull commented. With a strong leap, Samson made his way back to where Selena was only to find the dent in the car that was the result of Gibrail hitting her and no one else. The hairs on his arm raised again as he realized that something bad had happened. “SELENA!!” Samson shouted as he started running through the parking garage, checking behind every car. The further he ran the more the faint scent of blood filled the air. Samson’s heart started beating harder, climbing to his throat, as he ran quicker in the direction of the smell. It rapidly became stronger until he finally saw small droplets
“Who?” Samson asked. The wolf lowered its eyebrows. “How dare you not hear of me!” The wolf howled before charging forwards once again. Samson clenched his teeth and lowered his chin. He knew that if he was going to fight Lucifer it would be a war of attrition. He watched as the wolf snapped at him, twisting and moving in strange ways to get around his guard. He continued dodging, trying to look for an opening but the wolf didn’t have any. Every attack, every twist was well guarded and now having seen the danger in its mouth, Samson avoided it as best as he could. “Is this the best the werewolves can offer!” Lucifer howled through the bites, “Is the strongest werewolf alive just a coward who only knows how to dodge?” “LYCAN!!” Lucifer howled as it snapped near Samson’s neck. Like a whip, Samson jammed his right fist into the wolf’s face, sending it back with a flinch. Finally able to create the opening, he sprinted to the wolf and wove his fingers together in a tight club and sl
Samson let out an exhausted sigh. “I don’t know what the problem between you and that other guy is,” Samson said, “But keep me out of it.” “Stay down there human!” Lucifer howled, “This goes against our contract!” Gibrail took over, visibly clenching his wolfish jaw. “Listen Lucifer, we both want to keep this guy alive, lets-” “I REFUSE!!” Lucifer took over, foaming at the mouth. “LISTEN TO ME!!” Gibrail slammed his head into the ground. “I’d rather die than work with someone who spends his day doting on his brother!” Lucifer pulled his head up and slammed it into a nearby SUV. The two continued to argue, shouting at each other while throwing themselves against the ground and nearby vehicles. It was slow but Samson saw it, amongst their fighting, the fur on the wolf was shrinking while the wolf itself was growing in size. Their voices began to combine, turning into nothing but loud roars. The transformation continued ever so slowly as the wolf started morphing into a humanoid.
It was late at night when Selena regained her consciousness. Her eyes slowly lifted open. Her head rested against the cold door of the van she had slumped against. She took short shallow breaths remembering what had happened. The giant black wolf had attacked her, heckling and shouting at her before biting into her shoulder and slashing her chest. She remembered how she had found her way behind the car while it had been hunting her, then everything had gone black. Exhausted and accustomed to the procedure, she slowly brought her right arm around and felt the bite marks around her shoulder. Nothing was there, rather something that wasn’t supposed to be there was present. She used her fingers to navigate the area, feeling and attempting to figure out the foreign object there before realizing it was a piece of cloth. Now that she gave it her attention she could feel it wrapping around her body, another similar piece was wrapped around her chest. Selena furrowed her eyebrows in a V, un
When Selena had woken up again she no longer felt the weight on her shoulder. Groggily, she turned her head towards Samson and just made out his face. With a deep breath, she rubbed her eyes and stretched her back, hearing a satisfying pop as she straightened out. “How long have you been awake for?” She asked him. Samson stared blankly at the car in front of them, lost in his own thoughts. “Hey,” Selena pushed his shoulder gently, getting his attention, “How long have you been awake for?” Samson rested his head against the door of the van and looked upwards at the night sky, still full of stars. “A few minutes.” he responded. The butterflies in Selena’s stomach started swarming again as she stared at him. With a hard gulpe she started, “You… tied this around me didn’t you?” She asked, touching the makeshift wrapping. Wondering if he should respond like Lycan or himself, Samson looked down at her, staring into her eyes. “You were bleeding a lot,” Samson started, too exhausted to
With a deafening screech the headlights stopped, becoming dim before turning off completely. Once off, the vehicle responsible for them became visible, it was a black sedan. Three of its doors flung open as Charlie, Annie, Sarah and Haley sprinted out, launching themselves at Selena. “You’re alive!!” Charlie cried as she wrapped her arms around her neck. “We thought it was all over!” Sarah wiped her tears on Selena’s shoulder. The three cried as they clung onto Selena, hugging her tight and showing no signs of letting go. Samson watched the scene unfold, closing his eyes with a small grin. He moved stiffly to the car and leaned against the hood, keeping his hand on his ribs. It’s not so bad being on this side of it… Samson thought. Silence filled his head as he continued to stare. Man… It’s times like these that I miss you, you old dog… Samson thought, wondering what Skull would say to him. He watched as the girls cried harder from afar, silently laughing to himself as Selena sl
