Embarrased

3 Years Later

Jae cursed under her breath when she realized she was lost. She had traversed through this thick forest multiple times, so why was she getting confused now? It had just rained, and while the air was thick and dewy around her, the trees and plants were a vibrant shade of green that she could never get tired of looking at. As much as she would like to stay in this peaceful forest forever, she could feel her body beginning to weaken. She's had a weak body since birth, and it was the bane of her existence. She hated it so much. She knew she would get scolded when she got home, but she didn't care.

She heard a twig snap behind her, and she whipped around in surprise. Her heartbeat increased as she scanned the row of trees behind her. She didn't see anything, but that didn't decrease her suspicion. She turned around and kept walking forward, at a much quicker pace, and she could have sworn she heard footsteps behind her. She could hear her father's sharp words about going out alone echoing in her head.

When she turned around again, and spotted a dark figure hiding behind a tree. She froze in fear, and her mind was racing with questions as to why she was being followed. "Come out. I know you're following me." she yelled. She wasn't sure where this confidence was coming from but it was too late to run now. Slowly, four figures came out of their hiding spots. She wasn't expecting that many people.

She gulped but tried her best not to show fear. They were all men, and they were scruffy looking and they were wearing all black, some with masks and some without. "Are you lost little girl?" one of the men asked in a deep voice. They started stepping closer and she backed away as they did so. "N-no. I'm fine. I'm going back home now." she squeaked. Her panic was evident in her voice. "What's a cute thing like you doing in a forest like this? We noticed you were alone and well, we wanted to help you out. Wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you, what with all those filthy hybrids running around." another man said, smirking as he stepped closer.

"It's not them I have to worry about." she snapped, hoping that would make them back off. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be on my way." She said, turning back around to leave. "I think you misunderstood what our intentions are, miss. You're coming with us. Whether you want to or not. Do you know who we are? HHA ring any bells?" The Hybrid Hunter Association. She started to laugh, she just couldn't help it. Her father must have sent them. At least she had a way back now. A much bigger guy who hasn't said anything this whole time had a scratchy deep voice that sent chills down her spine. "I wouldn't be laughing if I were you." He pulled out a stun gun and aimed it at her, like it was the most casual thing in the world.

Jae froze, like a deer in headlights. "Wait, chill man, the boss will kill us if we-" Before the other guys could finish their sentences, there was a deep growl coming from behind them. Jae couldn't tell what it was, but whatever it was she knew it was big. They all turned around and they all whipped out their weapons. Jae wanted to take this opportunity to run, but before she could she heard a snarl behind her.

She saw a huge wolf, baring its teeth at her. She didn't know what to do, and she braced herself when it suddenly ran towards her. When she felt nothing, and heard the men screaming in terror, she opened her eyes and saw that the wolf that was in front of her was running towards them, along with a tiger, and another huge wolf. She was stunned, to say the least.

The men were pissing their pants in fear and they ran away like cowards. It looked like the tiger was going to chase them, but one of the wolves barked in their direction, as if telling them to stop. Jae didn't know whether she should run too, but she was mesmerized by the beautiful animals in front of her. She guessed they were hybrids, and her suspicions were correct when they shifted in front of her.
