An Ancient Feud (Private, 18+)

[Sathenus]

"Aww, that's sweet." Kaine said with a gentle smile. It really was sweet for Tenmo to say that, and it certainly made him feel quite special when it came to his Puppy. "You make me so happy too." He added leaning in for a kiss, enjoying the feeling of their lips together. When he broke the kiss he rested his head on his Puppy's chest, "I could enjoy using you as a pillow forever." Kaine said playfully. Though he was quite serious at the same time, he really enjoyed resting his head on his Puppy and just enjoying spending time with him no matter what they were doing.

 

A few hours seemed to pass of them just cuddling and talking, it didn't take long before he realized that he would need to get Tenmo in the tub and clean his Puppy up, that and he had to get ready for his hunt as well. Shifting in Tenmo's arms he looked up at his puppy, "Ready to get in the tub, love? We should get ready to head out for my hunt. I'm getting a bit hungry."

"Oh, I see! My little princess wants to be carried around everywhere, huh?" Xavier teased before he was reaching out and picking the other up once more tossing him effortlessly over his shoulder. "And just where does my little princess want to go?" He teased the other as he was walking out of the bathroom. He wasn't carrying his Pup like that for very long before he was shifting him into his arms much like he had carried him from his office and to the bathroom earlier. Leaning down to catch those lovely lips in a quick kiss before flashing a smile. "I believe we have a treaty to sign?" He added as he was making his way through the halls.

[virtualoo]

Tenmo didn’t realize how much time had passed before Kaine had mentioned that it was time for the tub. “Of course my little hunter..” He smiled before turning himself into his wolf form. “Puppy will cooperate if you make sure he looks good..” Tenmo smirked as he sat by the others feet, waiting to be led to the tub.

—-

Adrian laughed at being called a princess, sling over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. “Are you capturing one or reducing one here?” He teased before the position shifted to being held in his arms. Adrian returned the others kiss with a small smile..”Of course..” He smiled, giving him another quick kiss. “As long as my prince escorts me home after..?” He smirked, referring to the border line.

[Sathenus]

Getting up off the bed he stretched his body out watching as Tenmo got up and changed into his wolf form telling him he'd cooperate if he made sure he looked good. "So I take it as I still can't put pretty pink bows in your fur?" He asked playfully giving his Puppy a wink before leading him from the room and down the hall to the bathroom with the big tub they had used before. Getting the water nice and warm he moved around and grabbed the towels he'd need to drying Tenmo off after and making sure that the brush and hairdryer were nearby and ready as well. Helping his puppy into the tub to minimize the splash he was soon getting his black fur wet before reaching for the shampoo to start shampooing his soft fur.

 

"I like the idea of capturing one." Xavier responded with a smirk as he was making his way down the hall. After shifting Adrian into his arms though he smiled as the other mentioned escorting him home after. "How could I not? My lovely, Pup." He murmured before he was entering his office and setting his handsome lover down the edge of his desk. Retaking his seat he wasn't surprised to find that while they had been gone -despite not for all that long- his office had been cleaned up and everything put back where it belonged. This also meant he found the treaty resting in the middle of his desk just waiting for their signatures to make it official. "Shall we?" He questioned as he motioned to the new treaty.

[virtualoo]

“No...No you can’t...” Tenmo said with a small smirk as he was helped into the tub to minimize the splash his werewolf form would make. “Maybe if it’s blue..and it’s a bow tie...I am not going to look like a common poodle” Tenmo tried to compromise seeing as Kaine seems obsessed with bows today. And he figured that this would be a good middle ground..

 

“A personal escort? What a gentleman you are sir!” Adrian smirked teasingly as they approached his office. Adrian was sat down on the edge of the others desk, the desk now tidy and the office clean as they had arrived. “Cleaning crew..?” He teased before looking at the treaty down on the desk. “Well..Here is one” Adrian wrote, writing his name on the bottom in bold print.

"Oh! And a blue bow on your tail!" Kaine said with a look stating plainly that he was having far too much fun with this. "You'd make a very cute poodle." He added playfully as he was washing his cute wolf up and getting him ready for his hunt. "You'd look adorable in purple." He mused more to himself than Tenmo. It really was too fun to tease his Puppy, but he couldn't help but think about what his Puppy would look like with little bows in his fur.

 

"Of course. You don't expect me to clean it myself do you?" Xavier replied as if it was absurd to clean his office himself. If he was being honest with himself, he couldn't really recall the last time he had cleaned anything himself. After Adrian had signed the new treaty he took the pen from his Pup and signed it himself. "There we go. All taken care of. Everything cane be peaceful once more. Shall I make you a copy?" He said as he was setting the pen down and turning his full attention back to his Pup.

[virtualoo]

"If I do it once....I would never do it again. So if you are going to bows...you better make it count. But you better know that I would ravage you and make you pay for it afterwards" Tenmo said seriously but with a small smirk. He would let the other put bows in his fur but he would be sure that the other paid for it later when he got back.

 

Adrian chuckled, looking around the clean desk and watched as Nippy signed the treaty. "Well, that is all settled! Hopefully we can have peace...I got a piece already" Adrian teased, referring to what they did last night. 'And I would, always good to have a copy on hand" He said with a nod, knowing he would need to file away the new terms of the treaty..especially with the new changes.

"Yay!" Kario said happily perking up tremendously when Tenmo told him that if he did it once he would never do it again. He was so looking forward to taking advantage of this opportunity not even really paying much attention to the part that his Puppy would ravage him and make him pay for it afterwards. Finishing washing his Puppy up Kaine was careful in rinsing out the shampoo before helping him out of the tub and onto the awaiting towel. This time he was more prepared for that instinctual shake of his lover's fur and was quick to finish towel drying him before grabbing the brush and the hairdryer. It wasn't long before his puppy was looking as neat and tidy as he had the night before. Getting up he left for a moment giving Tenmo the command to stay put, when he returned he was quick to put a couple bows on his Puppy's head two purple bows on either ear and one at the base of his tail. Smirking happily he lead Tenmo to the mirror and motioned for him to take a look. "Look how absolutely cute you are!" He exclaimed happily. "Now let's go back to my room so I can get changed and to grab your leash."

 

 

"Yes, you certainly did, and you'll continue too." Xavier replied as he was getting up grabbing the treaty to make a copy of it. When the copy was finished he rolled it up much like the old one had been but this time selecting a different colored ribbon and seal for it. When it was finished he handed the neatly sealed treaty to Adrian before he was placing his own in a frame and sighing. "I'll display this near the front door of the mansion. Hopefully it will help everyone remember what is expected of them and we can avoid the treaty being broken in the future." Then he turned and moved back towards his Pup, leaning in to capture those lovely lips. "Let's get you home, Pup. I've kept you long enough. I'm sure your absence hasn't gone unnoticed."

[virtualoo]

Tenmo shook off the water but it seemed Kaine was prepared for it this time. He let himself be dried and brushed, staying put when Kaine asked him to. He saw multiple purple bows and thought about how much he was going to regret his choices. It was not even one....but three! Soon, there was a bow in each ear and a bow on his tail. "Oh...dear god..." Tenmo thought as he saw all the purple bows in his fur. "I look like I came out of a puppy salon..!" Tenmo shook his head with a small chuckle and a sigh. "You are so lucky you are you and I love you.." He laughed, following the other to his room.

 

"I should as well when I get home.." Adrian said with a nod, adding "High so no one can pounce on it and knock it down" with a small smirk and a laugh. "Beautiful choice of ribbon as always.." He smiled, returning the others kiss. "Yes, lead the way handsome" He teased with a small smirk

[Sathenus]

"My adorable puppy!" Kaine said happily when Tenmo said that it looked like he had come out of a puppy salon. His smile made it clear he liked the look and probably would have found a way for Tenmo to let him do it no matter what. When they reached his room he was stripping out of what he had been wearing and slipping into his hunting outfit. It was almost identical from the one he had worn the night he had snuck Tenmo home with him for the first time and referred to him as a snack. Checking himself out and making sure everything was in place he soon reached for the leash and was clipping it onto Tenmo's collar when he flashed a large smile. "Ready?" He eagerly asked already leading him from the room and towards the front door.

 

Xavier couldn't help but laugh when he was told that Adrian should do the same when he got home, saying that he would need to hang it up high so that it would not be pounced on and knocked down. "I keep forgetting how rambunctious a bunch of wolves can be." He mused as he pat his Pup on the head. "Let's get you home, love and this hung up." With that he slipped his hand into Adrian's and lead him from the room, this time allowing his Pup to walk. For now at least, it was still debatable if he'd allow that once they were out of the mansion. When they reached the door he was hanging the treaty up in a place that would be easily visible and he even had the attention of some of the coven members while hanging it.

[virtualoo]

"As ready as I can be.." Tenmo said with a shake of his head and a chuckle. 'Are you going to make me beg for treats and do sit and roll over for your food?" He teased, letting himself be led out the front door. He got in a last "I love you Kaine.." before he had to go silent and play his role of Kaines Puppy...as an actual puppy.

-----

Adrian watched as the other hung up the treaty, liking the look of it in the frame. "Well then..lead the way" Adrian said simply, walking out of the mansion, hand in hand with Xavier. This was perfect...a new treaty signed and peace between their races was forged a new again.

"This is perfect...!" He looked up at Xavier with a smile,still holding the others hand tightly.

"It is perfect.." Said a soft feminine voice from the woods on the werewolf side of the border line. A young woman stepped out of the trees, her long blonde hair tied back with a white ribbon, adorning a white sundress and a smile on her face, holding a messenger bag with a white lily embroidered in it.

Adrian stood there frozen in confusion and shock, looking at the woman as he was frozen in place. "Lu.....Luna...? You're....alive?!"

"Of course, I had to see the new alpha at work for myself~!" Luna smiled, running toward him happily and wrapping her arms around him in a big hug. "It has been so long Wolfy..~! I am so happy I-" She stopped mid sentence as she saw who was next to him. "Oh...It's the leech..." She said as she took a step back. "And...what are those..?" She said, seeing a few marks poking out of Adrians shirt.

"Luna...Darling...It's been so long..." Adrian said quietly as he watched her take a few steps back. "Yet..I moved on...I am with Xavier now.." He spoke softly, holding the others hand.

"You have GOT to be fucking kidding me Adrian! First you won't stop talking about Nippy this and Xavier that and now you are so out of your mind you got together with a leech?! I did not leave you for you to go and getting together with him!" Luna growled toward Xavier, looking rather angry.

"I'm sorry...you...what?" Adrian had a hard time understanding what he just heard. She....left him...on purpose?

"Yes Adrian, I thought me dying and then coming back after all these years you would finally get over that blood sucker and now you go around like a fucking tramp! Some alpha you are!" Luna hurled an insult in his direction.

"Now you listen here..." Adrian said with a low growl, angry at this revelation. "I grieved your loss for years...Our son grieved your loss most of his life. And now I am to understand you did it for such a petty reason?!" He said with a louder growl. "I am glad I moved on Luna....I...don't care anymore. I am with Nippy now...You better just leave me and our...no...my son alone and just go anywhere but here..." He said with a look of disdain, leaning up and kissing Xavier right on the lips.

"If I can't have you Adrian...no one will...not him either..." Luna said quietly, reaching into her bag for something.

Adrian was in a deep kiss with Xavier when he felt a sharp pain in his stomach, the kiss being broken. He looked down and saw the tip of a silver coated dagger below him protruding from his stomach, crimson blood staining the white shirt. He felt another sharp pain as he had gotten stabbed again, hands weakly grasping at Xaviers shirt front but could not hold himself up, collapsing into the grass at Xaviers feet, holding the wound in shock as he tried to focus on something...anything.

"Weak.." Luna growled down at him, staring down at him with a now bloody dagger in her hand and her white dress slightly splattered with red blood.

"Maybe!" Kaine said happily as he was leading the way to his normal hunting ground. Liking the area and the people there the most. He'd by lying to say he didn't have a few repeat meals either, some of the choices were just too good not to taste again. "I love you too, Tenmo." Kaine said as he walked patting the other's head gently, he slipped his hand through the loop in the leash letting it rest lightly against his wrist, his hand lightly enclosed around the length of the leash. He knew he didn't have to keep a firm grip on it, positive that his Puppy wouldn't suddenly take off and would instead be well behaved. As it turned out, Tenmo was working better than Kaine would have expected and though it also drew the unwanted attention of people he'd never consider food it did bring forth one person he had been trying to get at for a few weeks now.

 

Happily chatting with the boy he had to admit he was being quite the flirt, and for a moment forgot that Tenmo was literally at his side and being the perfect man's best friend. It was the compliment he received for how well behaved Tenmo was that drew his attention back to his Puppy. "He really is a good boy." Kaine mused with a small smirk and wink towards Tenmo when his food wasn't paying attention. It didn't take all that much convincing before they were going on a walk, though what may have been pushing things a little was when he had slipped his free hand into that if his prey's. It wasn't uncommon for him to do this, but he also remembered briefly that Tenmo was not used to being with him while he was hunting.

 

There was a more aware part of him as they walked down the street, his eyes taking in the area and his sensitive hearing was trying to catch if they were in an empty enough location to finally take his meal. They ended up walking with this guy for about fifteen minutes before Kaine decided they were in a safe enough spot, lightly tugging his food towards the wall of a close by building and throwing on quite a flirty side of himself. When the man seemed to be quite flattered and was glancing away for a moment that was when Kaine took the opportunity and leaned in sinking his teeth immediately into the soft skin. This human tasted better than Kaine had originally expected and it really was worth all the hard work to get to this point.

 

When he was full enough and making sure the human still had a heartbeat he released him licking over the wound to seal it before he was lowering the body to the ground and placing him in a better position. "You know." He commented as he glanced down at Tenmo, "I never have really questioned what goes through their minds when they wake up in such an odd location with a headache. Though... I personally don't really care either." He added with a shrug. Turning to lead his Puppy back the way they had come he reached down to pet him gently. "I've been after that meal for weeks. If I knew convincing you to wear a leash and come hunting with me would have made it so easy I would have done it long ago." Kaine added.

Xavier was more than happy to lead the way, to lead his handsome Pup back to the border so he could go home and give his pack the news that the treaty had been reinstated. As they were reaching the border Adrian had said that this was perfect while looking up at him, their gazes meeting for a moment. He was just about to respond and agree but a feminine voice broke through the air first coming from the other side of the border. He was stunned and confused by the appearance of this woman, not at first realizing who she was or anything like that until his Pup spoke calling her by name.

 

'Luna? So this is the mutt who took my Pup from me so long ago.' Xavier thought to himself a clear frown appearing on his face. He was not remotely happy to see her or finally be able to put a face to the name. It was also clear considering he had not known who she was at first that he had nothing to do with her original disappearance. When she had thrown herself at Adrian giving him a big hug and possessive and dominating growl came from Xavier so deep within him that it sounded more animalistic than normal. This was his Pup not anyone else's. His dislike for this woman was expressed even more when she called him a leech, his fangs bared in way that clearly indicated she was pushing her luck, his orange gaze narrowed.

 

His hand was tightening it's grip on Adrian's when his Pup told her that he was his, and that he had moved on now. "Damn right." Xavier growled still glaring at the woman. He was stunned and even more pissed to hear that this mut had willingly left his Pup and had abandoned him in that way. Even when he had been mad all those years ago he had never stopped loving his Pup, would never have abandoned him. He had felt abandoned by the events that had unfolded but would never have willingly abandoned Adrian, especially not over something like an ex. That's what he had been after all... or at least that was the least painful way to think about it.

 

"I told you I had nothing to do with it." Xavier said softly to his Pup when she admitted to leaving saying she thought her dying and coming back after all these years would have finally helped him get over that 'blood sucker' as she seemed to like to call him now. He had wanted to say something but his lips were caught in a deep kiss by Adrian and he was all too eager to return it. Reaching up and cupping his Pup's cheek as they kissed, for a moment completely forgetting her. But his hearing caught it, her threatening words and he became aware of a sudden shift in the atmosphere one that threw him off guard and made him immediately on edge.

 

A second later it all went wrong, this was all wrong. He was looking down at his poor Pup who had multiple wounds and was bleeding quite bad. His Pup trying to cling to him but not having the strength to do so. Panic hit him hard and he knelt down beside his Adrian, reaching out to brush the hair from his face and look over the damage. But a deep rage was rising within him, quickly rising and when his orange gaze moved up and landed on that woman something deep inside him snapped. He was in motion in a second and was quick to grab her by the neck slamming her into a nearby tree with little care to whether or not he broke said tree or her in the process. The growl that had come from him was between enraged and pained.

 

Xavier made quick work of her, not even caring if Adrian would have preferred he spared her, right now was not the time to consider mercy. Once he was sure that she was dead and for good this time he turned back to his Pup and moved over to him, carefully shifting his Pup into his lap. "Pup..." He whispered looking over the damage. He'd have to try to save him, even if it was the last thing he ever did he would try to save him. The only thing that came to mind was getting his Pup to a safe place, a hospital was their only option and it took him a moment to try to figure that out as panic was still running rampant in his mind. "Where is the nearest hospital? Your side, or mine?" He asked his Pup hoping Adrian would have enough strength to answer him. He'd carry him there, that wasn't the issue.

[virtualoo]

Tenmo tried to be the most well behaved dog he possibly could, sitting at Kaine's side and making sure he looked as lovable as he was able to muster. He looked all bright eyed and bushy tailed, being the well behaved dog that Kaine needed for his hunt. It seemed to draw the attention of one, finding it hard to keep quiet when Kaine was being all flirty but Kaine called him a good boy and it calmed him down. Kaine was his...at the end of the day Kaine was his...It was just for the meal. Tenmo let the other do his thing, watching as he was set down on the floor.

Tenmo chuckled when he was told he made his hunt so much easier. He looked around for any humans, speaking up and saying "Take me more often then sexy" He said with a wink.

---

Adrian clutched at his stomach, the blood not stopping flowing from his stab wounds. Everything was blurry...he was scared...He wasn't sure what was going on. He was terrified! Everything felt so cold and wet, the air around him smelling like the iron of his spilling blood.

 

He was breathing heavily when he felt a warmth by his side. "....Nippy..." He said quietly, feeling himself being pulled onto the others lap. "Y....Your side..." He managed to say after a few labored breaths, some of the blood getting on Xaviers lap. "I'm....so cold...' He murmured, nuzzling up to Xavier. "When I said...carry me....for the rest of my life...I didn't think...it would...be like this...Nippy..." He said with a weak laugh and a small smile, clinging onto Xavier as soon as he made a motion to carry him. "I love you Nippy..." He said quieter, feeling everything was getting colder very fast.

"Aww! My puppy wants to go hunting more often, huh?" Kaine teased as he reached down to give him another gentle pat. "I have to admit you make a great hunting partner." He added as they were walking down the street. "Maybe just... one more quick bite before we leave?" Kaine said as his eyes swept over the streets. He was still a bit hungry, though he probably shouldn't be considering Tenmo had let him feed off him a few hours earlier and then he had just had a big meal for dinner. It wasn't completely odd for him to have days like this, but he knew that he had to be careful to not make such a thing a habit either.

 

Adrian shifted his Pup and picked him up holding him extra close to his body, hoping to share some of his warmth with Adrian as he turned to rush to the nearest hospital after Adrian had told him it was on his side of the border. "Just... hang in there Pup." He said softly his eyes focused on where he was going using his speed to try to cover the distance as quickly as possible. "This isn't the end, Pup. It can't be." Xavier growled as he could finally make out the hospital building in the distance refusing to accept that this was the end for his Pup, for them. He had just got him back he wasn't about to lose him again already. Xavier was quick to enter the hospital and made it quickly clear that it was an emergency that needed to be taken immediately. He was reluctant to give Adrian to the doctors but he knew he had to do so in order for his Pup to have any chance of pulling through this. "I love you, Pup. Forever and always." Xavier whispered to Adrian before he released him to the doctors and started to pace impatiently.

[virtualoo]

"If you can't find someone, you can use me again...?" Tenmo tilted his head, hoping he can be a good puppy and get Kaine some more food. He stayed in his wolf form at the others side, also looking up and down the street. "Whatever you need of me I will do" Tenmo said with a small smile as he sat down at the others side. He rubbed his head up against the others leg with a small smile.

 

Adrian clung desperately to Xaviers chest, feeling the breeze against his skin. What strength he had was gripping onto the others chest, breathing heavily as he felt Xaviers chest was his only sense of warmth. Adrian didn't want to let go of Xaviers, his fingers needing to be pried off the others chest by the doctors. "That's my line...Nippy. Love you...always and forever..." he said with a weak smile as doctors quickly were rushing him off, all looking very concerned about his condition.

"I suppose I could. But I don't want to take too much from you either love." Kaine said as he reached down to pet Tenmo more feeling his head rubbing against his leg and noticing the small smile his Puppy had. "I know you'll do whatever I need you too. But I shouldn't really get into the habit of eating this much either." He admitted with a sheepish smile of his own. For a little while he just stood there absently petting his pet. "We can honestly call this good. It was a nice meal, and I know if I do need the little extra you're around." Kaine finally decided as he moved to head out of the town so that Tenmo could return to his human form without them having to worry about being seen by anyone.

 

Xavier certainly wasn't happy, he didn't even care that he was covered in his Pup's blood from the run to the hospital and quite literally refused to answer any questions as to how it had happened not wanting to bring attention to Luna's death or anything that had happened at the border. Worse comes to worse he'd pay the doctors and staff of the hospital off to be quiet and hold their tongues. As long as his Pup was okay that was all that mattered to him as he impatiently sat in the waiting room for any sort of update they could give him. His mind suddenly darted to Kaine and Tenmo, he'd have to tell the wolf what had happened.

[virtualoo]

"You got it good looking.." Tenmo said with a wink, being led back out of the town. As soon as he left the town, he was back in his human form, the collar and leash still attached. The bows were attached one to each ear and one to the back of his pants, reaching to take them off. "Glad I can help.." He said with a smirk before his ears popped up and his head darted around. "Something feels off.." He said, unsure of what it was.

 

"Mr..Um...X-have-i hair?" A doctor came in, having trouble pronouncing the others name. "Sir...His condition is rather uncertain and unstable at this time. He seems to be having a sever allergic reaction to whatever object caused these injuries" He said as he went over the charts. "As of this time, I am unsure if he will pull through...We will do everything he can but he will need close monitoring. He is hooked to some machines on anesthesia similar to a medically induced coma right now, he is room 0214 if you want to see him" He said looking glum.

"Even as a human you look cute in your bows." Kaine said playfully as he watched his Puppy taking them off. He was caught a bit off guard though he he noticed his wolf ears popping out again and his head darting around. Something was off about how it had happened and the look on his handsome Puppy's face. When Tenmo told him that something felt off he was about to ask him what he meant by that, but clearly Tenmo wasn't sure what was going on himself. "Umm... okay... what do you usually do when something feels off?" He asked unsure what to do at this point. He had been hoping he could keep teasing his pup and they could enjoy more time together still, but that didn't seem like it was the case at all.

 

Xavier ignored the fact that the doctor had a hard time pronouncing his name right now, it wasn't the point and he didn't really care. It wasn't even that important for him to be completely honest, when the man spoke even he knew that but he stopped himself from getting sarcastic or angry with the man. Being told that they didn't know if Adrian would pull through unnerved him deeply and wasn't the news he wanted to hear. "If you had to say right now, what's the chances of him pulling through this?" Xavier asked wanting to know to at the very least give the news to Adrian's son.

[virtualoo]

"I don't know..something smells like blood...a lot of blood..." Tenmo looked around the area, not sure where it was coming from. "Not like a usual hunt smell but..something is wrong...And I don't like it.." Tenmo said as he held the others hand. It bothered him that the very air seemed heavy to him, it really bothered him. The unknown really got to him..

 

The doctor got quiet, looking down at his paper before looking up at him a moment in silence. "20%..that he comes out of this in any sort of condition deemed a livable life. His chances are as of now...rather low. I'll put you down as a family member as a ...what are you to him? And I would get in contact with any family....Just in case..." he tried to be honest before pointing him to Adrians room.

[Sathenus]

Tenmo saying that something smelled like blood a lot of blood made him stop for a moment and take in a deep breath testing the scents in the air like he normally would when hunting for a snack. Sure enough there was an odd heavy scent of blood in the air, one that just seemed out of place in the town. It wasn't common for anyone here to be injured in such a manner, and it unnerved him a little. "Maybe we should head back to the mansion... or the border. Figure out if it's something on our end." Kaine said as he tugged on his Puppy's hand to lead him further into the woods.

 

That wasn't very promising at all. When he was asked what he was to him he sighed, "His partner." He replied without a second thought. Not really feeling like this was important at the moment. "Got it." He added before making his way towards Adrian's room. He wasn't very happy with how that conversation had gone, and he just hoped by some miracle things would end up alright. Entering Adrian's hospital room his heart seemed to really sink before he was taking a seat in a chair beside his bed and reaching out to take his hand. Anything that could have gone wrong tonight seemed to have gone wrong, it wasn't fair. He had just gotten his Pup back and a new treaty just for things to end up like this.

[virtualoo]

The doctor put him down as an emergency contact in case something were to happen, going off to take care of other patients. Adrian was hooked up to a bunch of machines, his entire mid section covered in various gauze and bandages of all sorts. Adrian seemed unresponsive to any of it, eyes closed and his body limp, the only movement was him breathing. His hand laid limp in the others grasp, not able to hold it.

 

Tenmo made his way toward the border, that being the first place he wanted to look. With a new treaty being signed, he had to make sure nothing happened. He stopped in his tracks as the border line became visible. A large splatter of blood laid in the middle, with a few blood droplet trails heading toward town. And in the middle, in a mangled mess of flesh and blood, underneath a dented tree was.."T....That's.....m......my.......mo-m......" Tenmo said as he started to shake. "That's my....mom? But mom....mom is....was....." He had a hard time processing this information, shaking and standing there in silence. Tears started to roll down his face as the image of his mothers blonde hair and skin soaked with her blood were ingraining themselves into his mind.

[Sathenus]

Xavier sighed, this wasn't right, so much was wrong with this. For a little while he sat there holding the limp hand between both of his and mumbling to himself. After a bit he stood up, promising his unconcious Pup that he'd be back to see him soon, before he turned to leave the hospital. He had to find Kaine so that the message could get back to his Pup's son that things were... grim right now. That was the nicest way to put it at least. He also had a mess to clean up at the border, but that wasn't as much of a concern for him right now. Her body could rot there for all he really cared.

 

Kaine followed after Tenmo, not really sure what to say or do right now, clearly something was wrong but it didn't seem as if either of them could quite figure it out yet. When they reached the border what they found was shocking to say the least, clearly something had gone down here, and there was one person who had clearly lost more than any other. As they neared it though he didn't expect that reaction from Tenmo, "Your... mother?" He repeated as he was turning his gaze from the body to his wolf. "Tenmo..." He said softly seeing the tears and his body starting to shake, he reached out for him taking his hand in his before he was wiping the tears away. "Look away." Kaine said softly as he pushed his Puppy to turn him away before he made his way closer to the body to try to discover what had happened here. The closer he got the worse the smell of blood was, "She hasn't been here very long..." He whispered noticing that the blood was actually quite fresh and that was how the scent was able to travel like it had.

Tenmo had to be turned by the other, in this shocked and sad silence as more tears rolled down his face. The blood in the middle was not hers...she must have been alive but now she was dead...He was facing the other way and fell to his knees. "Mom....Mommy..." He shivered, feeling like his heart dropped. His mom was alive and now....now she was dead. It was his childhood all over again...but now he saw her mangled form. The blood...all the blood..."D..Dad.....Where's my dad...?!" He started to panic through his tears, hyperventilating. He was all stirred up in grief and he needed his father right now.

As Kaine was inspecting the body he moved it slightly to notice what had been in one of her hands. For a moment he was about to tell Tenmo what he had discovered but it was then that he heard him speak in such a way that made his heart shatter. Turning from the body his eyes landed on his wolf who was panicking and hyperventilating on his side of the border. "Hey, now." Kaine said softly moving over to him, wrapping an arm around his shoulders to pull his pup into him, reaching out with his free hand to wipe those tears away again. "It's okay, Tenmo." Kaine said softly pressing a gentle kiss to the top of his head and holding him against him for a moment. He had noticed that there were two separate types of blood, clearly she had not been the only one to take damage tonight, and based on the amount of blood the other had been severely injured.

 

Suddenly he heard a familiar voice speak up, "Kaine. Get away from there." He looked up to see Xavier and was stunned to see that he was covered in blood. Taking in a deep breath he came to realize it was not the dead woman's blood that he was covered in. Though there was a hint of hers on him as well, "What happened?" Kaine instantly asked as Xavier was helping them both to their feet and ushering them both back in the direction they had come from moment ago and apparently that Xavier had come from as well. "It's a lot to explain. Adrian's in the hospital, he's in critical condition." Xavier said with a sigh. Kaine could hear it in his voice almost like he had heard it in Tenmo's a moment ago. Xavier was hurting, just like Tenmo seemed to be, just not over the same person. 'What the hell happened tonight?' Kaine thought stunned. Too much was happening too fast and it was hard for him to keep up.

"D.....Dad...?" Tenmos voice stuttered as his heart felt like it had left his body at that point. "Not my dad too....I can't lose my whole family..." His voice shook, a mere husk of a voice as it just shook violently in stuttering and tears. "We got to go...we got to go right now" Tenmo rushed off and his leash got caught on a branch, sending him to the ground. "Dad...Fucking branch let me fucking go!" He growled, trying to with no success get the branch off him, in no condition to be thinking coherently. If Xavier even seemed upset....It must be bad.

Kaine sighed a the reaction from Tenmo, he understood of course why he was in a hurry but rushing off was not going to do any good and it seemed almost as if the tree even realized that by catching his leash. Moving over to him he reached out, gently running a hand over his Puppy, "Tenmo... you really need to calm down." He said his voice soft as he reached for the clasp to remove the leash. "We'll go to the hospital and see him." He added right before released the clasp and after a slight tug on the collar managed to release Tenmo from the leash. Xavier even seemed to be out of it, enough to not reprimand Tenmo for acting the way he was something Kaine knew he would have done under any other circumstances. Kaine hadn't released his grip on the collar as he managed to free the leash from the tree and get it into his pocket. Turning back to his wolf he reached out for his hand and didn't release the collar until he was holding firmly to the other's hand. "Now let's go. Calmly." His voice was soothing and relaxed, trying to get Tenmo to calm a little. His Puppy being in this mindset would not help anyone, especially once they reached the hospital.
