"You look amazingly happy, nearly giddy."
"Do I?"
"You've had that nostalgic smile on your lips for about an hour now?"
"Why are you even counting?"
Ori merely laughed at her question as Katherine raised a brow with a frown upon her lips; she did not appreciate her friend's humour in her feelings. Was I really? she thought as she stabbed the chicken nugget and brought it upon her lips.
Taking a small bite, her mind drifted off to her family that was here; even though the sun has already risen, they were still in their beds. Katherine could only guess what they have been doing all night; hopefully, something productive and not their usual late night getaways.
As she took another bite out of her nugget, she felt a pair of arms drape over her shoulder; she did not move and just kept chewing as she smelt the familiar scent of chocolate behind her, certain that it was who she thought it was.
"Wolfie," she heard a whisper as she felt her vein pop, "Let me move in with you."
Katherine hummed, "And why should I agree to that?"
"Because you love me?" Hailey pouted as she rested her chin on Katherine's shoulders; her soft blonde hair nearly tickled her skin as she wrapped her arms around the wolf.
Katherine turned to her, "Hardly a reason for me to agree."
"But but," she nearly whimpered next to her ear as Katherine felt her throat quiver against her own shoulder, "I thought you're my friend?"
Katherine gently released her arms around her, "We are, but I don't want a roommate."
Defeated, Hailey frowned and sat next to her, then rested her head on the table; she was disappointed by Katherine's response, but somehow she knew that she would not even agree. Hailey was certain that Katherine did not know of her detention, but a part of her had no reason to tell her.
Should she tell her, she was certain that Katherine would once again bear the guilt inside her and she did not want that at all; she rather bear the blame than pass it to someone else. It was partly her fault that that had happened, but she even so, Katherine does not seem to understand it yet.
"Here," Katherine spoke as she brought the plate closer to Hailey, "Have something to eat."
"How come you never offered me food?" Ori questioned with a raised brow and a knowing look.
"You were early," Katherine replied as Hailey looked at her food, "She just got here."
"Hardly a reason for you not to," Ori smirked as Katherine just raised a brow at her, "Well, you guys look cute anyway."
A dash of crimson fell upon Katherine's cheeks as she suddenly pulled her plate away as Hailey grinned as much as Ori did. Cute, the duo thought as she stared at the red wolf, who seemed to have lowered her gaze and resumed eating.
"Whatever," Katherine spoke as she kept her eyes away from them, "Go get your own food, fae."
Hailey frowned at Ori, "See what you did?"
"I accept the blame," Ori giggled as Hailey just chuckled; both of them found Katherine too amusing to fight over. Katherine ignored them for a few minutes as she gobbled down her food; she did not waste a single bite and even cleared her plate to the brim.
Standing up, she walked to the return station and left her tray there; there were a few staff people who were here on the weekends, even though they should be home. It made her wonder if she can volunteer herself to do some work as her domesticated self, sprung out and thought of even mopping the room.
Itching to clean, Katherine approached one of the kitchen staff and queried them for any volunteer help; she assumed that her weekends would be like this – nothing to do, but hang out with friends. She remained uncertain if they would allow them to return to their families on the weekends or just on holidays; not that she wanted to.
Once she has done her query, she thanked the lady and returned to her seat; as she got nearer, she noticed the soldiers in the other table that were casually eyeing Hailey, which made her raise a brow as much as she felt a little anger rise inside her. Why are they looking at her? she asked herself whilst she sat down next to her.
Ori noticed Katherine's hardened stare and reached out for her hand from the opposite side; the wolf's grey eyes darted towards her and nearly raised a brow. Ori nudge to the direction of her seething gaze as if to ask her what was bothering her, but Katherine merely shook her head and retracted her hand.
"I'll see you guys later," Katherine proclaimed as she stood up and walked towards the exit; she could hear the faint whisper of the duo's conversation behind her and could only sigh at them. No, she was not going to visit Jesslyn or her family as they claim her to be; she was not really interested in seeing them right now.
As she stepped out into the open, the warm morning air rushed towards her and made her skin feel warm; the autumn breeze brought nothing but a fine chill to everyone's spine, but not to the wolves. Katherine took a deep breath as she started for the forest, hoping to be alone for a few minutes or even fall asleep with nature as the day went on.
There was nothing for her to do here and there was no homework to be done; she was so used to often doing house chores that laying back on the grass felt a little boring and lonely. A sigh escaped her lips once again as nostalgia came running to her memory bank just to yank out an old film – flashbacks of the days she still served the founder of this institution.
As she made her way to the forest, she smelt the air and caught a faint scent of cinnamon in the air; it felt so fresh as though it was taken out of her mind just for her to take in. Passing through the trees, she tried to look for a good spot to rest her mind, unsure whether she should try to train once again; her powers were still an enigma to her.
Delving deeper into the forest, she found a small glade inside with just a patch of soft grass; it was surrounded by tall pine trees as much as there were a few small bushes that had some pale blue berries on them. She approached the small clearing and sat in the centre, before she slowly leant back against the soft green grass.
The leaves blocked the sun and provided adequate shade, enough for the birds to lull her to sleep; she stared at the sky as a few pockets of sunlight burst through the thicket of leaves. Why are they here? she wondered as she recalled last night's sudden visit; Jesslyn did not provide a solid answer – too distracted by the presence of her lady love.
The memory made her sigh, but realised that Hailey was there; it made her wonder what she was doing there and in her pyjamas. She was aware that her room was totalled and unprotected, but that does not mean she can bunk in with any teacher.
Can she?
"What are you doing here?"
Bolting up, Katherine turned to voice as she saw a familiar pair of brown eyes stood in front of her; she sighed at her presence that still looked utterly gothic, yet cool on its own. The long, red leather jacket she wore that had the left sleeve cut off looked really fancy with her fingerless gloves, but her look was more intimidating by the tall combat boots she wore; her dark, leather shorts only told anyone that she was sexy – enough to kill you.
Literally.
"I had nothing to do, Cecil," Katherine replied as she lied back down, "You nearly scared me."
"You shouldn't be here, Kathie," Cecelia told her as she approached the young teen, "We haven't captured your friend's assailant yet," she informed her as Katherine merely looked at her with uninterested eyes, "You'd be in danger if you stay here, alone too."
"Can I stay here for a few minutes?" Katherine bargained as the mage stared at her for a minute and gave a silent nod; she sat next to her and wondered what went in her head, aware that it must be something that troubled her.
"Want to talk about it?"
"Frankly, I have nothing to tell you."
"Obviously a lie."
"Why does everyone doubt me?"
Cecilia chuckled at her question, which made the young blonde stare at her. It was obvious that something bothered her, not because she dodged the question, but simply because of her being there; wolves have a tendency to embrace nature when troubled and Cecilia new it well enough.
"We don't doubt you," Cecilia responded as she leant back down as well, "You say nothing bothers you, but everyone can see it," she explained as Katherine noted it, "We just care about you, Kathie."
Katherine groaned, "So, even Athena and Thessie knew?"
"Hmm," Cecilia hummed, "I guess they caught on from last night."
Katherine sighed, "They will bombard me with questions soon."
"Only because-"
"You care, I know," Katherine completed her sentence which made the light brown haired mage sit up and smile at her, "And I thank you guys for doing so."
A dash of red crossed her features ones again, Cecilia found her utterly cute even though her eyes looked away as though she did not care at all; it was not true because Katherine always cared. She just did not know how to show it, but it was normal for anyone going through adolescence.
Standing up, Cecilia stretched her arms as she offered her hand to her young friend, who took it without question; she was one to honour her deal. Katherine stared at the glade for a moment and took in the fresh air, then tried to find a mark. She would return here once more without interruptions.
"By the way," Katherine spoke as they walked in tandem, "What are you doing here, Cecil?"
Cecilia hummed momentarily, "To see pretty girls and handsome boys then make them my slaves?"
"Besides your fetish," Katherine groaned at her response and rolled her eyes, "I meant, what are you doing here?"
Cecilia turned to her, "Well, you're no fun," she chuckled as Katherine rolled her eyes once more, "Athena asked me to investigate the essence in the forest," she explained as they entered the dirt path back to the institution, "She wanted my opinion on the matter, so I came and tried to find the source."
"Did you find it?" Katherine questioned.
Cecilia shook her head, "It was as Jesslyn said; the chant disappeared without a trace."
"I see," Katherine nodded in response as she lowered her gaze to the ground, "I guess even you can be wrong."
Cecilia raised a brow, "I beg your pardon?"
"Well," Katherine trailed for a moment, "Even for an infamous mage, you sure don't know much."
Cecilia frowned at her, "That hurts you know."
"Sorry," Katherine apologised as Cecilia merely chuckled at her, "But really though," she spoke, "Is this new to you?"
Cecilia shook her head, "Can't say I haven't seen this kind of thing before."
"So, you've encountered this before?" Katherine raised a brow, curious at this phenomenon.
Cecilia pursed her lip to one side, "Theoretically, it's not impossible, but factually, it is."
Nodding, Katherine got the gist of it and merely swept it under a rug; she was content at knowing that it was possible, but to hear that it was impossible was something else. It was bad enough that she encountered someone too powerful for her – someone she could not take down physically.
Delving into chants was something she did not wish to do; her brain would not be able to comprehend it. The two of them made their way back to the institution, passing by tall pines on the way out; Katherine liked the outdoors as much as she preferred to stay indoors. Nature just had a way to calm her somehow.
"This is as far as I go," Cecilia spoke out as they reached the edge of the forest, "Make sure to stay away from the forest, alone if possible."
Katherine grumbled, "I'm no longer a child, Cecil."
"Yet you act like one," the light browned haired mage chuckled as she raised her handd to take her glove off and wrote a round chant on her palm; a barrier rose and blocked the path to the forest. Katherine witnessed Cecilia's power once again – brilliant as the first time she had seen it; her magical essence spread throughout every entrance of the forest, which made the young blonde sigh.
Turning to her friend, Katherine saw Cecilia wave at her as she stood there as though waiting for her to walk back; she frowned at her and turned on her heels, then began her short walk back to the institution. She cannot believe that even Cecilia would do such a thing to her – a close friend to boot.
"Sometimes, I can never understand my own friends."

Shadows crept across the forest and invaded the silent land; the mountain blocked the moon's light as it slowly reached its highest. Silence had filled the land as much as the night creatures were left with the owls' own conversation from one end of the forest to the other; the world slowly grew still as it made way to for king of the night.
Sleep has invaded the institution, which kept the grounds as still as the night; there were no nuances, no light footsteps, not even the sound of a needle could break the silence. The wind blew a silent breeze as the moon finally sat on its throne and finally called out to its servants, ready to bestow its powers upon them.
Softly, a soft tune crept across the hallways of the dorms of the first years; every corner bore the same familiar tune, a soft and gentle melody that each student could hear from their soundproof rooms.
Slowly, Katherine raised her eyelids as her dark room greeted her; the full moon was outside her window as she turned to it and rubbed her eye that still felt asleep. Sitting up, her ears perked up to the soft tune that played outside the halls; swinging her legs to the side, she removed her duvet and stood up.
What is that sound?
Katherine questioned as she slowly made her way towards the door and could hear the music grow louder with each step she took; she held her doorknob and twisted it, which enabled the music to enter her dark room. A soft music played and the piece felt all too familiar in her ears.
A violin?
She questioned herself as she stood out in the hallways and saw a few other curious people who had left the comfort of their rooms to investigate the same sound; she stared at the hallway and saw the other sleepy people who were disturbed of their fine sleep.
"What's going on?"
"Why is there music in the halls?"
"I was getting to the good part."
Grumbles erupted from the hallways as Katherine made her way to the stairs and wondered where this music came from; there were no speakers in the hallway so it was not possible for them to hear it. It made her wonder what it was for as she descended the stairs and found herself in the lobby.
Could this be a chant?
Katherine thought as she walked out of the dorm and the full moon greeted her; her skin itched a little as much as she felt her body burn almost immediately. Her hand clutched her chest as she felt her body perspire for some reason; as she stood staring at the moon, she heard a loud silent whistle which made her dart her eyes towards its direction.
What's this?
Anger rose inside her as the high pitched whistle invaded her ears; there was a need to find it and rip the person apart for using it. Riding on instinct, Katherine ran towards the sound of the whistle without a hint of hesitation as she ran and ran as much as the wind caught up with her pace; she heard a few growls around her as she saw a few others who rode on the same instinct as her.
The will to hunt.
Looking around, she saw their irises glow golden as they ran faster as much they growled louder, their numbers spread across the field as they got closer to the forest; Katherine recalled the barrier Cecilia raised up earlier and wondered if they would get obliterated should they pass through it.
She slowed down a bit, but not too much as she let someone else go ahead of her; surprisingly, nothing happened to the tall lanky boy who entered the forest which made Katherine run faster as her blood boiled even hotter, nearly searing her own pale skin.
Roaring, a few have already shifted into their half forms as they raced towards the sound; it was getting closer as they ran through the forest and found themselves in front of a cliff. From the distance on the other side, Katherine could only guess at the distance as she recalled the first Drill class they had; she clenched her fist as she recalled that night, the inevitable weakness she had.
Anger was rising; her heart pumped adrenaline. Katherine felt her fury burn inside as she slowly turned to half on her own command as she let the anger drive her body; she listened carefully to the sound and realised that it was not on the other side, but instead it was underneath them.
Taking a step closer to the edge, she looked down and saw the long fall; the sight alone made her recall the abyss inside her school gym that made her nearly afraid, but not too much. Anger overrode any other emotion and it drove her nearly insane just to get rid of that high pitched whistle.
I'm not afraid.
Clenching her fists, she took a few steps back before she ran towards the edge and leapt; the upward wind came rushing towards her as she heard the sound of the falls in the distance. She knew not what awaited her at the bottom, but she knew she was getting close; the draft got stronger with each passing second.
Arms closed, she maneuverer her body closer to the rocks as she dug her arm through it and did not even feel a hint of pain; it made her wonder as to why, but her curiosity died in a matter of seconds as she heard the whistle closer to where she was.
Scaling the side of the cliff, she dug her way towards the sound as she saw an opening nearby; there was even a small ledge for her to jump into. I think I can make that jump, Katherine thought as she tried to swing herself sideways towards the ledge; it was pretty steep, but her anger clouded her judgement.
Taking a leap of faith, Katherine let go of the cliff as she tried grab onto the ledge; her swing was perfect, but her trajectory was too far. She swung past the ledge and immediately dug her hand against the cliff; lucky her hands were nearly indestructible that none of it hurt.
Climbing up, she finally caught onto the ledge as she heard a few others already jumping to scale the cliff; it was much deeper that the one at the gym, probably because they were by the mountain. Getting on the ledge, she stood tall as she growled a little as much as she bared her teeth like the wolf she was.
Body stiffened; fists clenched. She walked inside the cave and heard the whistle grow louder and louder, nearly deafening her as she got closer; she listened carefully to her surroundings, but the whistle prevented any other sound inside the cave as it echoed.
As she got in further, she felt a whiff of air fly past her that made her roll forward and turn behind to find a tall, well-built guy with golden eyes; he had a smile on his lips as she offered a hand up to her. Katherine was sceptical at first, but eventually took it and stood up to face him; she smelt him perfectly as though his scent ran the mile.
"Congratulations, pup," he spoke as he motioned for her to follow, "You've found Branforth's Den."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Perfect, just perfect."
"You're too much."
"It was though."
"I think it was alright."
Stepping away from the ledge, Jesslyn walked towards Cecilia who eyed her with wonder; she was amused by her skill at the violin that woke all the students as they had planned. Tonight was the night that all of them should be prepared for; it was the night where all races would bow to the moon.
"You should head to the Mages sanctum," Jesslyn spoke as returned her violin inside her case, "I hope everyone enjoys their ceremony.
Cecilia chuckled, "Well, they would be stoked to see the infamous mage."
"I don't doubt they would," Jesslyn replied as she began her descent on the spiral staircase inside the clock tower, "Don't enjoy yourself too much, Cecil."
Cecilia smirked, "Can't promise anything."
Stepping into the moonlight, Cecil vanished into thin air as Jesslyn frowned and shook her head; she sighed as she made her way down to the very entrance of the clock tower. She opened the door and the love of her life stood outside with a book in her hands, passing time on waiting.
"How was my performance?" Jesslyn queried with a victorious smile.
Itsuki raised her lowered gaze, "It was alright."
"Alright?" Jesslyn frowned, "I thought it was magnificent!"
Itsuki giggled, "I think your last night's performance, was much better."
"Oh really?" Jesslyn's lips reversed into a wide grin as she wrapped an arm around her fiancé's waist and pulled her close, "Maybe I can give you an even better performance tonight?"
Itsuki grinned, "Don't you have work to do?"
"Well," Jesslyn spoke softly as she pressed her lips against her cheek, "Maybe I can," then trailed down her jawline, "Be a bit late, perhaps?"
Itsuki bit her lower lip, "No, I don't want a quickie."
"Then," Jesslyn trailed kisses down her neck as Itsuki wrapped her arms around her neck, "Will you wait for me?"
Itsuki let out a soft moan as Jesslyn kissed her weak spot, "Yes."
Satisfied with her answer, Jesslyn lifted Itsuki up and kissed her sweet lips, then smiled at her; she was content with that arrangement as Itsuki bit her lip in anticipation. Jesslyn carried her out of the clock tower and left Itsuki at the dorm for her to see the whole show.
Once she had left her lover with her pregnant friend that she still believed ate three dozen watermelons in one evening, she proceeded to roof and stood beside her best friend, who had her hands behind her back; she had her eyes at the moon as though she basked in its majesty as much as she felt its power run inside her.
"All students have reached their destinations," Athena spoke as she took a good sniff of the air, "You think they'll enjoy tonight's challenge?"
Jesslyn shrugged as she took out her binoculars, "Cecil will handle everything."
"Well, I would do it if I could," Athena sighed as she felt the earth under the soles of her shoes as she noted the introductions of the moon, "But I have to stay here and watch my family."
Jesslyn hummed as she peered into the open, "Say, how did you get her pregnant?"
"Well," Athena chuckled, "It wasn't through normal bed pleasures I guarantee you," she told her as Jesslyn looked at her with an unamused stare, "I found a chant and well, we did for three days straight."
Jesslyn snickered, "Did she enjoy it at least?"
"You have no idea," Athena sighed as Jesslyn noted the look in her eyes; she could sense her exhaustion, but at the same time it made her wonder why. Shrugging it off as a good thing, Jesslyn peered through her binoculars and observed the forest; she looked at the locations of the individual hideouts and checked if all was according to plan.
Meanwhile, at Branforth's Den, Katherine stood amongst the crowd as they howled to the moon in acknowledgement of its power; never has she felt so alive in her life as they sang a chorus to the sky. There were a lot of people there and she felt like she belonged for once in her life; this was her very first pack.
The man she saw earlier stood at the tall rock platform where the moonlight was its spotlight; he raised his arms as everyone howled once more – first to third years alike. He calmed the crowd as he lowered his arms as his golden eyes observed them and could sense their hunger; he smiled as he slowly shifted in half at the moon's order, which made a lot of them marvel at him.
"Behold!" he roared, "This is what you are!" he exclaimed as he barred his fangs at them, "You are a beast of pure power and the back bone of this institution," he spoke as he stood tall, "But beyond this power, all of you are of one body – one pack!"
Katherine growled as much as everyone did in acknowledgement; everyone in the den felt exhilarated beyond control as most of them have already felt the moon's beck and call. Some of them have already shifted to half whilst the others waited for their turn; Katherine was already in her half lycan state and felt power run through her veins – something she has never felt before.
"Rise, my brothers and sisters!" the man shouted as he felt the moon's power drive them, "Rise and let out the beast within!"
A loud growl soon erupted as the room watched as he transformed into a hulking beast of seven feet high; a werewolf at its finest. He howled to the moon to thank it for its blessing as the rest wanted to feel the power as well; one by one, mad howls erupted from one end of the room as they all felt the shift in their bodies.
Waiting patiently, Katherine took deep solemn breaths as she gaze into the moon's face and asked it if it was her time to change; so far, there was no response and yet she could already feel her body heat up. Knees weakening, she slowly knelt down as she felt the fire inside her burn even more like a volcano waiting to erupt.
What is happening to me?
Body contorting, her spine retracting; she clenched her fist as she felt her body weigh heavier, grow bigger, her mouth water. Howling to the moon, she stood tall and felt her vision heighten as much as the rest of her sense have had; looking around she felt the need to hunt, to run faster than the wind, but prey on the smaller beasts.
Help her!
Katherine growled as she looked around in search of this voice; the room was dark as much as her vision differed – it was still the same as an average person, but she can see their body temperatures as though it was normal. Her hands were claws – sharp like any sword as much as her body was buff as the werewolf next to her.
She's in danger! Please!
Roaring in vexation, Katherine turned to the tall stone and saw their pack hound – an alternative pack master, but not truly the alpha – stood tall and howled for them to follow. The ground shook as they all ran after him through the dark tunnel that stood at least twelve foot tall, enough for an army of vampires to fly through.
Adrenaline pumping, Katherine felt her inner beast soar through the sky as much as she felt happy – belonging to something other than a family; she ran with her pack brothers and sisters as they reached a cliff that looked at the mountain where a beacon of light stood tall that nearly seemed as though it touched the moon.
"Listen to me, my pack brothers and sisters," their pack hound spoke in a much grizzlier voice, "That beacon is our goal," he pointed as everyone howled in acknowledgement, "Tonight, we bathe in the moon and battle with a foe – a teacher or so – and the first to retrieve what she carries, wins this challenge of races!"
Roaring out loud, he ran towards the goal as the rest followed him so; the earth shook tremendously as much as the sky darkened with the flight of the Vampires. Katherine took a glimpse of their forms and marvelled at their beauty aware that it was going to be a blood bath, but they have explained the rules much clear earlier.
Their target was nothing else but the person standing at the goal.
Trees bent and broke as golems of otherworldly shapes and sizes marched through the forest towards that single goal; Katherine was in awe of the Faeries that summoned such creatures to their side – nature battling for the will of man. It made her wonder briefly what Hailey would have summoned.
Loud hollering soon erupted as Katherine turned to it; humans flew across the forest, beside the golems as their limbs burned a myriad of colours. The Mages flew with chants on their bodies as much as their tattoos glimmered silver under the moon, racing to be the victor of this challenge.
The ground shook even more as Katherine noted the scent in the air; animals of different kinds raced beside them, through the golem's feet. Morphlings have blended with the crowd; from the form of bats in the sky, to the hulk of the golems nearby, all of them stood not with themselves but with others as Ori told them to be.
Katherine even noticed some in her pack had a different colour in their eyes – not the gold that was bestowed upon them. It made her giddy with anxiety, the need to roar at them for their mischief, but that was not their goal.
Gritting her teeth, she ran faster on all fours as much as the rest have had; some were not used to running on all fours and were still running like human. Katherine almost scoffed at them as she ran faster than the others, almost running past the pack hound, who merely growled in acknowledgement.
Someone please! Save her!
The voice called out to her again as she looked around in search of it; her ears perked up. Katherine could not understand where it came from as she kept running as much as the adrenaline pounded against her chest; it was exhilarating as though the whole atmosphere revolved around her chest that made her run even faster.
They were getting closer to the mountain as the earth shook and split across in front of them; it barred their path forward as Katherine noted the temperature at the top. The scent was familiar to her that made her growl louder; the gap in front of them was not too far which made her jump and reach it without question.
Please, you have to help her!
"What is this voice?" Katherine mumbled grizzly to herself as she saw a few others have already reached the top, but were beaten back out with blinding flash; a vampire shrieked out loud as he fell from the top as much as a golem dissipated before it got closer to the peak.
Growling louder, Katherine ran up the mountain and leapt over it; as she flew in mid-air, she saw a devilish smirk across her own friend who had her hand out, casting chants against anyone who came close as much as there was circle under her feet. Cecil? she wondered as she felt a deep pain burst through her chest and made her fall back.
Vex rode on her mind as she roared and landed on a pine tree; she stood up and examined her chest, but saw no marks of the shot, which made her believe that that was not meant to hurt her at all. Growling, she roared to the moon and began to catch up to the rest, but suddenly felt a force prevent her from going any farther.
Please, save her! She's in danger!
Turning around, Katherine searched for this voice once again as she took a deep breath to smell the earth; the chaos at the top of the mountain stirred as she looked at it as though there was a storm cloud over it. There was a need to fight inside her, but at the same time, there was something inside her that told her not to.
She's by the lake! Please save her! I beg you!
Running on instinct, Katherine ran around the mountain and looked for a scent that seemed to invade her mind; she ran past the trees and nearly decapitated a few in the process. She ran and ran as though there was something that needed to be done, something she would regret if she did not do.
As she ran through the trees, she heard water trickle in the distance as she saw a clearing a head – water at the edge; she ran through the trees and bolted towards the lake and growled out loud. Her anger rose uncontrollably as a foe she did not expect to appear, stood in front with an unconscious friend in his arms.
Please save Hailey!
