"Come now you little mongrel are you scared of a little human
Growling in rage the wolf jumped forward mouth open and as it did Marcus jammed his shield into the mouth, and a crack sounded out
Whimpering slightly the Direwolf lept back and with a snarling face with one crunch broke the shield into splinters of wood and metal scraps,
John deftly taking the beasts show of strength as an opportunity threw a vial at the beast and the Beasts heightened sense quickly dodged and as the vial shattered a green viscous liquid coated the fur of the beast slightly
A cry came from the wolf as the wolfs fur burned away and its flesh bubbled away
Snarling and angry it charged John
'Fuck'
Knowing he was out of tricks he threw his dagger and it hit its mark but did not finish off the beast as it still barreled forward
Something moved in the way and the collapsing of metal was heard
John jumped back
Marcus took the bite , Quickly using his comrades act of selflessness he jumped over Marcus and found where his dagger was as he sunk in the beast's shoulder and heard his friend's armour cracking and sword hitting the wolf with impotence, John dislodged the dagger and drove it home
the dagger cracked down into the dire wolves skull penetrating to the fleshy inside ,a gurgling was heard and the wolves eyes rolled back and tongue lapped out.
Marcus still stuck into the death grip with the last strength pulled the wolf off of him
John and Marcus was covered in blood
Looking to the right they saw lela
Marcus quickly looked at Lela and said
"Is rea Ok "
"Yes she is ok ,you should be worried about yourself "
Looking down Marcus saw the blood which coated him ,
"Fuck "
Feeling lightheaded he staggered in his armour to his knee and propign himself with his now bent sword,
With quick succesion, Rea rushed out of the foliage with Elie on her shoulder
"Oh god Marcus ,Rea let me down "
Rushing forward Ellie put her hands out and a warm light shot forth covering Marcuse's body in warm light and as it did he could feel his very flesh rent like the greatest healing salve or tonic
"Thanks "standing up now matted with blood he looked like a chivalrous knight in glorious repose,
"We did it ,FUCKING HELL WE DID IT "
"Yeah we did"
the group hear rustling in the treeline and as they looked to the side they saw a jet black beast, larger than any Direwolf they have ever seen
It prowled forward head low and snarling
the group walked slowly backwards stumbling in unison at what they saw
The Direwolf Alpha looked down at its bloodied and dead comrade and looked up with rage and it let out a roar unmatched which sent chills down the group's spine and only one thought echoed throughout there mind
"Were dead"
