They met back at her house just after eleven and they brought most of the stuff inside. Elena packed her largest backpack with cold weather clothing. Marie questioned her about this since it was over 70 degrees today."It's obvious you've never been up in the high mountains camping. It's warm during the day, but at night the temperature drops to freezing or below. I might end up above the tree line or even the snow line, I just don't know, so I have to prepare as if that's where I'm going.""Oh, okay. What are those brown packets you put in the side pockets?""Those are some MRE's I got off the Internet.""MRE's?""Yeah, Meals Ready to Eat. They have their own heat source and even if they taste like crap, they have tons of calories and carb's for energy when you need it.""I can think of one MRE that tastes great and has no calories.""God! Don't you ever get enough?""Nope. Not when it comes to you I don't."Marie caressed Elena's butt and kissed her cheek.They ate a light lunch and

She followed the scent for a few yards and found the source. A large pine tree had a slightly darker stain on the base of the trunk. She looked around her again, but nothing changed in the sounds, and so she knelt down and sniffed the stain. Yes, it was Damien's scent, and it was newer than the ones inside the cabin. So, he had been here since we left that night. She felt something click inside her head and she knew this was a territorial marking.Something else came over her; she had the sudden urge to pee. Without really thinking about it, she loosened the holster and her pants and she squatted over that spot and squirted two pulses of urine over his mark. Then the urge was over and she was just squatting next to the tree. She shook her head at what she had just done and pushed aside the strange feelings. She pulled her pants back up and reattached the holster to her thigh.She looked around and sniffed the air, trying to pick up another marking scent. Nothing. She tried to think ab

She made it around the trunk when a gouge of wood exploded right where her head had just been. The whine of the ricocheting bullet sang through the air. BOOOOM! She stayed on her stomach and making sure that the tree stayed between her and the rifle, she crawled down off the top of the mountain.Once she was sure that no more speeding chunks of copper and lead could find her, she got up and ran as fast as she could down the mountain. She pushed off trees and large rocks as she careened down the side of the steep grade. It didn't take her long before she was back at the cabin, she passed it and kept going until she was at her truck. She jumped in and started it, backed up and drove as fast as she could down the rough fire access road.Twenty minutes later she was at the junction point and she stopped, looking around, she couldn't see any other vehicles. Looking at the road, her tire tracks from earlier were the only ones that showed fresh on the dirt road. She put the truck into neutra

She managed to cover another twelve miles, stopping and checking the breeze every mile mark on the odometer. The scent became stronger as she traveled along the upper ridge of the valley. When it was too dark to go on safely without lights, she found a spot where she could get off the fire trail and parked.She got out and listened, but there was nothing but the breeze through the pines. She sniffed the air again and found that the scent was rather strong. She pulled out a flashlight and flipped its red lens down in place. She also pulled out the pistol and threaded the silencer onto it. She clicked on the flashlight and started walking slowly towards the scent. She carefully walked about a hundred yards when she found the tree he had marked. It was a huge pine, easily four feet across at the base. She looked around on the ground but there were no tracks, the thick layer of pine needles prevented it. She walked around the tree first, looking outwards. There was nothing that registered

She lifted her shirt up and using the flashlight, looked at the damage. There was an irregular bruise just below her left breast, if she hadn't been wearing the vest, it would have been fatal. She took off the gun belt and holster. She removed the pistol, screwed the silencer onto it and set it next to her pillow. She put the flashlight right next to it. She crawled into her bag and went to sleep.She dreamed of gunshots and blood. There were growling monsters and torn bodies. She heard a voice calling her name. She knew that voice. That deep bass of Damien was saying her name. She felt sick to her stomach and her skin itched. There that voice was again. She sat up, sweating and breathing fast. Her stomach still felt queasy and she itched everywhere."Elena."There it was, that deep bass, and it wasn't in her dreams. It was in her ears. WHAT? She reached for the pistol and the flashlight. She slid out of her sleeping bag and crouched."Elena. I am here. You called me."Now she was rea

"No, that's the change coming on, and if you are feeling that right now, you are close. The full moon is still a few days away, and you are already fighting off the urge to shift. That's not a good sign, Elena. When did these feelings start?""Well, the other day when I was really angry with someone was the first time, but I was able to fight it off with the help of my friend. I felt it again while I was dreaming just a few minutes ago, just before I woke up and heard you out here calling my name.""Yes, anger will cause you to shift if you can't calm down soon enough. What were you dreaming of?""Blood, monsters, and torn bodies.""Okay, blood and violence will cause you to shift early as well. However, I have never known dreams to cause it. It's the smell of the blood and the feel of the violence that stimulates the change. Have you been involved in anything today that had blood or violence?""Yeah, I was shot twice."He looked at her sharply and then shook his head."I see no wound

He hit her again, not quite as hard as the first time, but hard enough. She could feel the blood trickling down her chin. She could taste it in her mouth. It sent shivers through her body."You stay put. I'm going to get my Jeep and then the fun will begin. If you try to get away, the next beating will be worse, bitch. You understand me?"She nodded her head. He eyed her suspiciously. He went over to the truck and picked up a roll of duct tape. He came over to her and wrapped several loops around her, securing her to the tree. He stood back and eyed his handiwork. He nodded to himself and smiled. It was an evil smile and it chilled Elena to her bones. He laughed when he saw her shudder. He turned to walk away, then rotated his hip and kicked her in the stomach. Her breath shot out of her and she puked. The pain was terrible; her whole midsection was on fire. She choked and tried to breathe. He was laughing at her."That was for tricking me with the vest. You shouldn't have worn it. It

She tossed what was left of the bad human on the ground and went to find a place to rest. She walked slowly back to where she had woken up before her meal and looked around. There were scraps of clothing lying all over the ground. She spotted the tent, ooh, that looks good. She crawled over to it and opened the flap. There was fluffy bedding on the floor. Perfect! She slid in and curled up, wrapping her muscular arms around herself and pulling her legs up, she went to sleep.Elena opened her eyes; she could hear someone outside her tent. She panicked, and reached for the gun. It wasn't there! Then she looked at her hand and saw it was covered in blood. Oh God! What's going on? Then she looked down at herself and saw that she was naked and there was blood all over her and it had rubbed off onto her sleeping bag. She was shaking and trying hard to think about what could have happened. She couldn't remember! No wait, I woke up earlier, and I had to pee. Then nothing. Scott beating me? Oh

"Oh gods, no, Elena. I loved you. I still do. But the change in you has caused that love to change as well. I don't know how to explain it. None of the languages I know have a word for it. It's just, well, it's different.""Okay, I believe you. So, will you teach me how to do the mind stuff and control my shift?""Yes, I told you last night I would. Our time will have to be short, however. I cannot be with you for more than a couple of hours at a time, before my control is pushed to its limits. Also, there are two things that I want in return for this help""Oh? What are they, Damien?"Elena was instantly suspicious. Damien was different now and her trust in him was no longer what it once was."First, I need a promise. You have to swear a blood oath to do something for me when our time is finished.""A blood oath? Why? No one does those anymore.""It doesn't matter, you will do this or I won't help you. I hate to be so uncouth, Elena, but I have to have this blood oath.""Okay, say I

She got out her campstool and sat down, emotionally drained and physically exhausted. Her face went slack and her eyes lost focus as she reviewed what she had just done. The ruined piece of humanity that had been lying on the ground numbed her sense of reality. Her mind kept trying to come to grips with the fact that the white ragged sticks were bones, that the red mass of tissue had once been a human being. The sickly pallor of the skin that no longer had blood flowing to it to give it that peach colored hue, the blood turning black as it dried in the cool mountain air. The sickening slurp that sounded so loud in her ears as she picked it up and drug it across the ground to the hole she had dug.She came out of her disturbing reverie to find her hands shaking and her skin cold and clammy. A fine sheen of sweat covered her face, her stomach felt like it had turned to stone. There was a strange sensation of floating in her head, like she was inside this giant indoor stadium and her bod
