STRANGE MAZE, WHAT IS THIS PLACE? I HEAR VOICES OVER MY SHOULDER,
NOTHING'S MAKING SENSE AT ALL. WONDER, WHY DO WE RACE?
WHEN EVERYDAY WE'RE RUNNIN' IN CIRCLES, SUCH A FUNNY WAY TO FALL.
TRIED TO OPEN MY EYES, I'M HOPIN' FOR A CHANCE TO MAKE IT ALRIGHT.

"It's not a centaur. They make too much noise. And you would have seen them already....AWH!"

[/b] Rowan finished her sentence with a scream as she felt something burning in her skin. Turning around she saw something in the distance, deep in the forest. Her mind was rolling as she glazed at the man who stood there with a crossbow. That was most definitely not a muggle. That man knew the forest well enough to know that going any deeper would cause trouble among the creatures.

Rowan looked to see where the object was lodged in her body. Her right shoulder. How lovely, a wooden stake dipped in holy water. As if this couldn't get any worse. A second stake seemed to come and find itself lodged in her abdomen. She couldn't take this. How did these vampire hunters find her? Had they been watching her every move when she came out to hunt? Why attack now when she had someone else with her? She took the chance to bolt toward them. Kill them before they killed her. It felt like the only way to keep Alex from getting hurt for what she was.

Disappearing from sight, Rowan weaved between the trees until she got to the first wizard hunter. She was quick with her choice. It was the only way to have things done swiftly and quietly. She grabbed his head and pulled his head towards her snapping the neck. She dropped the limp body as another wooden arrow/stake plunged its way into her, this time her left thigh. Screaming in pain as she fell to her knees trying to hold herself together, but everything came undone right then and there. Sure she was a fast healer, but it took a lot longer because she wasn't drinking human blood to heal her wounds. She had been drinking animal blood and the process was slow.

She looked to Alex, her eyes filled with pain as she slowly sank to the ground. The hunter came up to see her as he shot off a few arrows with his crossbow at Alex. Rowan hoped they missed him. She didn't want anything to happen to Alex. Not for what she was. For what her diet was. It was never her fault. It was the teachers, for not coming out here with her to make sure things were alright and to keep her safe. How could she ever find the will to come out here without fear of being killed? It was already bad as it was as the wizard made her suffer for being a monster to mankind.

There were a few more stakes in her by the time the hunter left, taking his deceased comrade with him. Rowan was in agony, her cries were like a dying animal. "Alex. Help me... I can't feel anything. I can't move."[/b] Her mental state was impressive for someone who was used to running and hiding from those kind of people out to kill her. How she ever got to sleep at night thinking anyone at school could be a vampire hunter was truly an amazing defeat, but now, she was frightened inside. Terrified of what could happen now. She looked to Alex in the distance where she left him, her heart beating fast like it was going to pop out at any given moment.

The wizard had made her suffer. He shot at the body parts she used the most. Her hands and her feet. It was a wonder why she wasn't just killed right here on the spot. Was it so that everyone at the school knew who they were going to class with or slept in the same house with? A monster that could easily kill them in their sleep? Rowan could never do such a thing, but now, it was quite a possibility to kill those who came in her path to kill her. Wizard and Muggle alike. "Don't run, because your afraid to get attacked. He's gone with his deceased comrade. I can't let the others see me. I can't. Not like this. These stakes have to be pulled out. They have to...."[/b] Her weak state made her lose consciousness for the lack of blood available to keep her awake. It was all up to Alex, to do something. She was out like a lightbulb.

Alexander always believed himself to be a fairy lucky person. There had been some very bad bumps in his life, he had been bitten by a werewolf. But that wasn’t so bad, werewolves were more accepted now than they had been twenty years ago. They had a good potion, that controlled the worse effects and he was still allowed in Hogwarts. He was a muggleborn, but even with the Death Eaters around, most wizards were very understanding, there were many more . Yet today was one very bad day for Alexander, he found himself in the most dangerous place in Hogwarts. He was chatting away with a vampire and before he knew it, strange people were throwing things his way. Alexander moved to take cover quickly, looking over his shoulder for the source of the attack.

The first thought that came to mind was that Hogwarts was under Death Eater attack once more, the moment the idea left his mind Alexander knew that it sounded stupid. This attackers were using weapons, simple muggle-like weapons. Death Eaters would never bother with something like that. Yet he knew that no matter the weapons, this were not muggles. Not matter what may have happened in the few weeks, no muggle would be able to get inside the Forbidden Forest and make it so far in that they almost come out in Hogwarts. The defense spells are far more stronger than that, who ever was attacking was a wizard or at least knew about magic and the creatures that lived in the Forbidden forest itself. That of course, made them far more dangerous, especially since Alex didn’t had a wand.

Alexander could only hope that Rowan was unhurt, in his current state he could serve as of very little help and he would never dare to use any of his werewolf abilities. Just thinking about it made him feel sick, just the thought of loosing control even for an instance. But it was clear to him, that no one would be coming to their rescue right now, no teacher could here them so deep in the forest. He had to think of a plan and soon. Somehow before Alexander Evans could think of anything, the strong smell of freshly spilled blood filled him. Alexander had to rest against a tree, his head spinning. It was the smell of death, the werewolf in him wanted to rip his way out. Alexander knew that a rush of adrenaline and fear was rushing through his veins. Yet the idea that someone was dead, was strong enough to at least settle his mind for the moment.

That and the new sound of pain that filled all around him. Alexander hurried from his hiding place, noticing the wood that had landed on the trees surrounding him. Maybe this night wasn’t as unlucky as he had believed, werewolf or not had Alexander been hit, he was sure that he would have never made it. This thought went back into his mind as soon as it came, there was someone in terrible pain and when a voice called to him. He knew that Rowan had not been so lucky, she had been struck by whomever had launched that attack. He also knew that Rowan had been the one to bring the smell of death, probably to at least one of their attackers. Yet as much as this knowledge unsettled him, Alexander wasn’t going to leave his fellow Ravenclaw lying around. Her actions had been in self defense and could be discussed later.

By the time Alexander had joined Rowan she was already down, blood had spilled everywhere and he had to close his eyes for a moment. He had no other choice right now, he couldn’t leave her in order to get help. Not only could the other assaulter return and end his job, but Rowan could easily die from the lack of blood. Picking her limp body up, Alexander almost ran back to the grounds and finally into the school itself. He wasn’t sure how Rowan would feel about been carried to the hospital wing, but he didn’t really had another option at the moment. He would only hope that she wouldn’t be to angry at him.

I wasn't sure what Alex should do,
if you want something else PM me.
