The sound of yet more gunshots going off had Antwan's heart skipping in beats. His attention was split for a second and it was enough to allow the man he had on the ground to stab him in the ribs. What the fuck was up with people stabbing me! He though angrily as he clamped down on the man's wrist that held the knife, when the man snatched it out and tried to stab him again. He bit down until he heard bones breaking,ignoring his cries,he ripped his arm open. He jerk to the side and went for the man's throat. At the sound of another gunshot and then the sound of a roar, Antwan visciously tore the man's trhroat out and went to aid T.
He was barely able to stand on his feet and it hit Antwan hard. T still tried to fight off his attackers but he was out numbered. He wasnt going to make it in time! 'Hold on!hold on!' The thought played over and over in his head as he tried to get to him. One man charged at him and when T. turned to meet the attack he was shot in the chest. It was as if everything instantly went into slow motion.
He watched as T. fell to the ground and blood pooled around him. The anger that rose up within him was a liveing and breathing entity. He lost all understanding and just went after them. He paid no hede to the bullets that pegged him nor those that whizzed past him. He launched at one catching him as he turned to run. He visciously tore at his flesh before clamping his teeth onto his throat and tore it out, there was a gaping whole left in the wake of his teeth.
-
The others began to run but Antwan would be damned if he allowed them to live. He took off after the closest one and tackled him to the ground,tearing into his flesh. He fought and Antwan ignored it. He was breaking bones and tearing the man open. His screams of pain fell on deaf ears. Antwan jumped off when the man turned around and weakly tried to hit him with a big stick. Antwan found an opening and launch ed himself at the man and went for his throat.
He tore flesh from the man's body, spit it out and went for more. He was so mad he began to literally eat the man's face before he caught movement up ahead. The last man had stood transfixed and watched in horror as his comrade was left a bloody mess. Antwan looked at him with eyes such a deep blue they almost looked black. Blood dripped from his mouth as he snarled and snapped. He eased away from the dead man and slowly stalked the other. His gaze never leaving him.
With each step Antwan took towards him the man took one away from Antwan. His eyes darted around looking for a weapon or an escape. When the man stopped, so too did Antwan. He silently urged the idiot to run just so that he could bring him down. Soon the man was turning and hauling ass to get away. Antwan snarled and gave chase. It would take nothing to catch up with him but antwan wanted to toy with him. He sped up to the point of snapping at the man's heels before he darted off to the side and concealed himself in the shadows of the surrounding trees. He used the shadows to heard the man back the way he had come.
He would head him off snarling and forcing him backwards. He cut him off whenever he tried to go some where Antwan didnt want him to go. When the man went back to the area where the tiger lay in a pool of it s blood he growled. "Damn it Antwan! He attacked us! We were just defending ourselves." He said looking around.
Antwan's snarled met his ears before his eyes laid on the bloody wolf. Antwan looked down at T's lifeless body and his anger went up a notch. He was continuously snarling as he stalked the man. "Come on man,dont this. I didnt mean to kill him." The man pleaded and Antwan's pupils dilated before he charged. The man tried to shift but Antwan caught him mid shift. The full weight of his body and his speed caused him to slightly spin as he hit the man and drug him to the ground. He shook him visciously and tore chunks of flesh out of him. He made quick work of the man and tore him limb from limb until he was all over the place.
With blood dripping from his mouth and his various wounds he slowly walked over to T. and touched his forehead to the tiger's and closed his eyes as a whine was pulled from within him. He felt the slightest of movements from him and Antwan sat up and looked at him with sad eyes. T. opened his eyes though it was clear that it took much effort for him to do so. He tried to lift his paw and hit Antwan with as he always did when he felt Antwan was being a damned baby. He couldnt even manage to lift it up. Antwan Whined and gently placed a a paw on his neck, just as he did before they got into some trouble. Although it was always T. who stopped Antwan from being caught by the human police.
Antwan laid beside him and placed his head on the tiger's neck. As his labored breathing became shallow and then Finally he took one last deep breath. Such sorrow filled him that he felt he couldnt possibly contain it all. He lifted his head and howled. It was long and full of sorrow as it drifted up to the nightsky. As he howled, T's body began toshift back to its human form and still Antwan didnt stiffle his cries. He couldnt believe what happened, but as he looked down at his friend his angered was renewed and he went back to those he'd just killed and continued to tear them apart until there was no recognizing who was who.
The fact that he was practically on the battle field didnt seem to phase him one bit.

Mike broke a man's arm in two and sent his fist through the ribcage of another as he twisted in his toes and caught the man trying to sneak up on him. More people had come and joined the frey. It seemed as though two sprung up when he took one down. He looked over at BJ and saw that he too was fighting. He didnt like that he couldnt be side by side with him as they fought the mongrels. That fact seemed to fuel his frustration. He turned and uppercutted some dude in the jaw with such for he broke his jaw. His hands had turned to claws and his fangs had grown. He snarled when some one kicked him in the side of his knee nearly bringing him down. The loud crack had him cringing. He raked his claws across the face of one man leaving it in shreds. He elbowed another in throat as they came up behind him and flipped him over his shoulder to slam him into another.
He gave as good as he got but he was growing tired and was in excruciating pain. He looked over to BJ and clenched his jaw as he made an effort to get to him, though he had to get rid of these irritating asses first.
BJ snapped the neck of one person only to have another to stab him in the shoulder. He quickly turned and hit the man hard in the temple with such force that the man stumbled back before falling to the ground. He ducked when some swung at him and gut checked them. When someome tried to tackle him to the ground, he dug in his heels and brought his elbow down hard on the man's neck satisfied at the loud crack that he'd heard. He didnt have time to enjoy it because soon he was stumbling back from the force of a hit to the jaw.
He was tackled once more and this time he lost his feet though as they went down he locked his arm around the man's neck and held it tightky as they fell. As he hit the ground he could feel the man's neck snap at the force of the fall. He was kicked in the ribs as soon as pushed the dead body of of him. He tried to roll out of the way but soon found himself covering his face as he was jumped by three men. They all wore eveidence of the fight and BJ looked just as busted up. He glanced up and caughtone of their legs ,ignoring the others. He used his open palm to knock his knee out of place before pushing him back and launching himself at the next person.
He punched the man in the throat and felt his trachea give way. He left the man clawing at the ground as well as his neck trying futily to drag air into his lungs. They didnt have many left as the fought. He could hear their boys coming closer. The sound of explosives and fighting nearly drowned them out. BJ shakily gained his feet and looked for the other dude that he'd been fighting with only to see him going for one of the discarded guns.
Cursing, BJ went after him but before he could reach him, the man had shot him. He grimaced before snarling. He tackled the man and grabbed the man's writ and yanked it in an upturned angle and broke it. When he tried to use his othe hand to hit him, BJ blocked it and broke it as well, forcing it up with one jerk causing the elbow the bend the other way. He pushed off of the man as he screamed in pain. He bent down and grabbed the gun before he shot the man in the head. He turned to Mike,pain spreading with every motion.
"Damn, you look lik shit." Mike said and chuckled as he twisted one man's head around so that he was looking backwards.
"Well you dont look much better." BJ said with a grin as he saw someone run up behind Mike. He raised the gin and shot him without thought and Mike continued walking as if nothing had happened. As he looked Bj over he growled softly. BJ chuckled. "Really? you gone go bat shit on me?" He asked and Mike shoved him a bit but then caught him when he looked as if he would fall over. Mike frowned and put his arms around his waist as he helped him to walk despite his own pain and injuries.
"You know, everybody is gonna think we've got something going on between us if you keep babying me like this." BJ joked as they began to make their way to the car.
Mike growled and huffed. "Well if they dont know by now then
they're fucking stupid. Besides we dont have to hide it anymore. We'll be free to do what we will. " He said and it was clear to see that the prospect of freedom was something he wholeheartedly looked foward to. "And love whomever we choose." He said and nuzzled BJ's neck before nipping him playfully.
"Dont be getting nothing started you cant finish." He said with a soft growl.
"I always finish and I make sure you do as well." Mike said and hit him on the ass before putting his arm back around BJ.
"That you do." Was all BJ could say in response to that last comment. They were nearing the area they had Parked the car when BJ heard someone coming up behind him.
"Fucking Faggots!" He yelled and at the cock of the gun. BJ felt himself being pushed to the ground and gun shots going off. BJ stared in horror as Mike was shot repeatedly in the chest. The pain that was etched on his face was one that would always haunt BJ. "NO!" He yelled as he made his way to his mate. His whole world stopped as he gathered Mike in his arms as he pressed his hands on his chest trying to stop the bleeding.
He heard the gun cock and didnt care. A shot rang through the area and he looked into Mikes eyes as the goofball tried to smile at him. "Well this suck balls dont it?" He asked and started to laughed but it came out as a bloody cough and each breath was labored and rattled.
"Shut up you damn fool." BJ said with a watery laugh as tears rolled own his face. He pulled Mike into his lap and began to gently rock him. "We're gonna get you to Fox and she gone patch ya up. Hold on ya hear me?" Bj said . He'd tried to say it lightly but his fear and sorrow was making it hard to speak. He heard movement nearby and snarled as his vision began to change to that of his cat. It took a moment for him to realize that it was Terrill and his group.
They had killed the man that had shot Mike and was now looking down at them. Sadness etched clearly on their faces. "It's not that bad." He said and coughed again. The sound broke Bj's heart and he hugged him closer. Truth was Mike was terrified and didnt want to die but he knew there was no getting around this one. He cast his eyes up at BJ and cupped his face. "Dont cry Love, you know it breaks my heart to see you upset." Bj clutched his hand and gave him a forced smile.
"Now that's just creepy." Mike said and smiled. His fingers snaked around to the back of his neck and pulled him down towards him. Terrill motioned for his group to spread out and secure the area and give them a chance to say their good-byes.
Their foreheads met and tears fell down Mike's face. Bj held him up and lowered his lips to Mike's and they shared a long kiss. Their blood and tears mixed as theire love for one another was shared through that one action. They both pulled back and looked into each other's eyes. "Im scared. B." Mike whispered as he felt his strength waning. Bj brushed back his hair and kissed his forehead. "There is nothing to be afriad of Baby. It's a place of beauty and peace waiting for ya on the other side." He whispered.
"How do you know?" Mike asked in an even quieter voice that had BJ's heart seizing.
"Becasue you're going there so I know it's gotta be." He said and smiled. Mike closed his eyes and was quiet a moment and panic rushed through him.
"You're so corney." Mike said and tried to smiled but it seemed like it was too much to muster one. "Always for you, love." Bj said and could sense Mike's spirit growing weaker.
Mike lifted his lids despite the fact that they felt like lead. "I Love You." Mike said softly and and tried to pull BJ closer.
"Dont let them get into too much trouble while I'm gone." He said and tried to smile again. BJ smiled and bent down closer to him ,so that he didnt have to expend the precious energy he had left, before he kissed him. Bj knew the moment he took his last breath and was gone. He looked down at Mike's body and just simply stared. He was gone. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he sat there and held Mike in his arms. "I love you too. Sleep well and rest easy ,Love." He said before he just broke down and wept clutching Mike to his heart.
Terrill and the others clenched their jaws as they tried to shut out the weeping of a comrade and the passing of another. others began to burst through the foliage, but upon seeing the two,they stopped and looked in disbelief. Their reactions varied and but essentially they were all the same. No one dared to get close but merely watched over the two.

Antonio wsa cursing as he made his way through the patch of forest they had been in. He'd been shot in the shoulder and in the leg he'd been stabbed several times and he had a gash just above his right eye that had blood dripping into his eye. They had been forced to seperate. He didnt know where anyone from his team was and he only had one clip left. He snarled at the situation as he kept going. His aim was for the neutral territory,he figured no one would be in the area and it'd give him a chance to assess his wounds and tend to them.
He heard a stick snap and he moved into the shadows, Knife in hand ready to attack should he need to. There was another explosion that lit up the area and he sighed in releif when he saw Alexander and his group.
"Where the hell have you bitches been hiding?" He demanded with a growl. Alexander looked him up and down and grimaced.
"Damn they did a number on your ass. Shouldnt you be going away from danger in your present state?" He asked with a raised brown and Antonio frowned.
"What the hell are you talking about I am." He growled.
"No bruh, you're going into red zone one and they will definitely put a bullet in your ass if they see you." Alexander said with his own frown. "Are you ok, man? Never seen you so turned around before."
"I'm fucking fine. Have you seen any of my brothers? Or Foxxy? She is in here somewhere." He asked and there was a bit of worry in his voice.
"Alexander looked at him for a moment befroe sighing. "No I havent seen them. If I do I will do my best to keep em safe." He said then looked in the direction that he was going and back at Antonio."Seriously though, dont go this way they will kill you on the spot." He warned before motioning for his men to move out.
"Be safe." Alexander said over his shoulder.
"And you do the same." Antonio said and winced as he tried to move and pain ruched at him. For a second his vision blurred but as soon as it had passed he foreced himself to keep going but this time in a different direction.
~*~
Anthony snapped the neck of one only to have the other jaw him. He came back with a gut wrencher that stole the man's breath as he bent down, he uppercutted him and broke his jaw. He grabbed the man's shoulders and yanked him down as he brought his knee up hard into the man's chest caving it in.He was tossing the man away from him when he felt the biting sting of a blade in his back before it was snatched out and plunged in again. He clenched his jaw and side stepped when he felt the knife leave his body and the man readied to stab him again.
He twisted and grabbed the man's wrist bending it backwards with a snap breaking it and making him drop the knife. He caught the man's other arm as he tried to hit him and yanked it at an ungodly angle and yanked him close. As the man screamed in pain and struggled to get away he left his throat exposed. Anthony's fangs elongated and he sank them deep into the man's exposed throat with a snarl and ripped his throat out. The blood lust that started to fill him was a bit hard to control but he did so.
He turned snarling as tossed the body on the floor and his stormy grey eyes landed on Evera. Blood dripped from his mouth as he wore a grim expression on his face. They shouldnt have left her. They should have made sure she was with them. When Voss pushed eon out of Evera, he flinched. He was responsible for this.
Slowly he walked over to her and knelt beside her checking her puls. It wasnt strong but it was steady. "Yea,she's alive but she needs immediate medical attention." He said as he looked over her wounds. She had bruises all over as well as various cuts and bite marks but it seemed that the her arm had taken the brunt of it. "Je m'excuse petit oiseau "(I'm sorry little bird) He said softly in french. It was what he'd called her when she was little and was upset. There was so much guilt seeing her as she was.
He started to gently brush her hair from her face when her eyes shot open and she tried to fend him off with one arm. It broke his heart to see such fear in one such as Evera. "petit oiseau, calm down. It's me." Anthony said sternly. She stiffened and stared at him. There was so much accusation in her eyes as she stared at him with eyes that almost mirrored his own. "You left me." She said hurt tinged her voice and he tried not to flinch.
"I know,but never again." He said and tore off his shirt and tore it into strips as he used it to wrap wrap up her arm and make a sling for it. From the feel of it, the bone ws broken in several places and there was some serious nerve damage. The movement of her arm had her crying out before went silent. She'd passed out once again and tears ran down from the corners of her eyes. He gently picked her up in his arms and looked to Raider. "Can you carry her out of here? I will take the lead and get us out and Voss can bring up the rear and provide cover." He said as he subconsciously played with the blood on his hands.
~*~
Jay growled low at being pushed but he followed none the less, the movement causing his wound to bleed more but ignored it.
Foxxy was less than happy. She didnt agree with leaving them there, plans be damned. Those were newborn babies and Eliora was in no shape to protect them.They should be doing something to help them not running away! It was so frustrating it brought her to tears. She wanted to help them. It wasnt fair. She fought and struggled and wept at the whole situation. She turned pleading eyes to Ka'ron for a moment and thought. 'What if that was her and their children?' That thoughtthad her blushing in light of the situation and she cried even more.
Jay saw movement and turned to see Alexander and his group heading inside. "Fox,calm down. Look, Alex is here. He will help her and the babies but we have to get you out of here." He said and she looked back as the group went inside the building. She stopped her struggles and continued to weep.
~*~
Alexander wasnt too keen on leaving Antonio as he was but his priority was Eliora and her children.It was easy for him and his team to gain access to the area because no one suspected them to oppose Benjamin and he used that to his advantage. They helped whereever they could,freeing up men so that they could go help their comrades. When he reached the main building it looked as if part of it had been blown up and he cursed. "Let's go." He said and they head for the inside.
He'd caught movement and saw that it was Foxxy fighting and struggling to get out of the arms of the one who held her. He would have gave her aide had he not seen Jay close on their heals as the small group ran from the building. He had but a second before another explosion shook the ground beneath his feet. He dismissed the retreating group and went for Eliora and the babies.
He was barely able to stand on his feet and it hit Antwan hard. T still tried to fight off his attackers but he was out numbered. He wasnt going to make it in time! 'Hold on!hold on!' The thought played over and over in his head as he tried to get to him. One man charged at him and when T. turned to meet the attack he was shot in the chest. It was as if everything instantly went into slow motion.
He watched as T. fell to the ground and blood pooled around him. The anger that rose up within him was a liveing and breathing entity. He lost all understanding and just went after them. He paid no hede to the bullets that pegged him nor those that whizzed past him. He launched at one catching him as he turned to run. He visciously tore at his flesh before clamping his teeth onto his throat and tore it out, there was a gaping whole left in the wake of his teeth.
-
The others began to run but Antwan would be damned if he allowed them to live. He took off after the closest one and tackled him to the ground,tearing into his flesh. He fought and Antwan ignored it. He was breaking bones and tearing the man open. His screams of pain fell on deaf ears. Antwan jumped off when the man turned around and weakly tried to hit him with a big stick. Antwan found an opening and launch ed himself at the man and went for his throat.
He tore flesh from the man's body, spit it out and went for more. He was so mad he began to literally eat the man's face before he caught movement up ahead. The last man had stood transfixed and watched in horror as his comrade was left a bloody mess. Antwan looked at him with eyes such a deep blue they almost looked black. Blood dripped from his mouth as he snarled and snapped. He eased away from the dead man and slowly stalked the other. His gaze never leaving him.
With each step Antwan took towards him the man took one away from Antwan. His eyes darted around looking for a weapon or an escape. When the man stopped, so too did Antwan. He silently urged the idiot to run just so that he could bring him down. Soon the man was turning and hauling ass to get away. Antwan snarled and gave chase. It would take nothing to catch up with him but antwan wanted to toy with him. He sped up to the point of snapping at the man's heels before he darted off to the side and concealed himself in the shadows of the surrounding trees. He used the shadows to heard the man back the way he had come.
He would head him off snarling and forcing him backwards. He cut him off whenever he tried to go some where Antwan didnt want him to go. When the man went back to the area where the tiger lay in a pool of it s blood he growled. "Damn it Antwan! He attacked us! We were just defending ourselves." He said looking around.
Antwan's snarled met his ears before his eyes laid on the bloody wolf. Antwan looked down at T's lifeless body and his anger went up a notch. He was continuously snarling as he stalked the man. "Come on man,dont this. I didnt mean to kill him." The man pleaded and Antwan's pupils dilated before he charged. The man tried to shift but Antwan caught him mid shift. The full weight of his body and his speed caused him to slightly spin as he hit the man and drug him to the ground. He shook him visciously and tore chunks of flesh out of him. He made quick work of the man and tore him limb from limb until he was all over the place.
With blood dripping from his mouth and his various wounds he slowly walked over to T. and touched his forehead to the tiger's and closed his eyes as a whine was pulled from within him. He felt the slightest of movements from him and Antwan sat up and looked at him with sad eyes. T. opened his eyes though it was clear that it took much effort for him to do so. He tried to lift his paw and hit Antwan with as he always did when he felt Antwan was being a damned baby. He couldnt even manage to lift it up. Antwan Whined and gently placed a a paw on his neck, just as he did before they got into some trouble. Although it was always T. who stopped Antwan from being caught by the human police.
Antwan laid beside him and placed his head on the tiger's neck. As his labored breathing became shallow and then Finally he took one last deep breath. Such sorrow filled him that he felt he couldnt possibly contain it all. He lifted his head and howled. It was long and full of sorrow as it drifted up to the nightsky. As he howled, T's body began toshift back to its human form and still Antwan didnt stiffle his cries. He couldnt believe what happened, but as he looked down at his friend his angered was renewed and he went back to those he'd just killed and continued to tear them apart until there was no recognizing who was who.
The fact that he was practically on the battle field didnt seem to phase him one bit.

Mike broke a man's arm in two and sent his fist through the ribcage of another as he twisted in his toes and caught the man trying to sneak up on him. More people had come and joined the frey. It seemed as though two sprung up when he took one down. He looked over at BJ and saw that he too was fighting. He didnt like that he couldnt be side by side with him as they fought the mongrels.

He elbowed another in throat as they came up behind him and flipped him over his shoulder to slam him into another.
He gave as good as he got but he was growing tired and was in excruciating pain. He looked over to BJ and clenched his jaw as he made an effort to get to him, though he had to get rid of these irritating asses first.
BJ snapped the neck of one person only to have another to stab him in the shoulder.

He didnt have time to enjoy it because soon he was stumbling back from the force of a hit to the jaw.
He was tackled once more and this time he lost his feet though as they went down he locked his arm around the man's neck and held it tightky as they fell. As he hit the ground he could feel the man's neck snap at the force of the fall. He was kicked in the ribs as soon as pushed the dead body of of him. He tried to roll out of the way but soon found himself covering his face as he was jumped by three men. They all wore eveidence of the fight and BJ looked just as busted up. He glanced up and caughtone of their legs ,ignoring the others. He used his open palm to knock his knee out of place before pushing him back and launching himself at the next person.
He punched the man in the throat and felt his trachea give way. He left the man clawing at the ground as well as his neck trying futily to drag air into his lungs. They didnt have many left as the fought. He could hear their boys coming closer. The sound of explosives and fighting nearly drowned them out. BJ shakily gained his feet and looked for the other dude that he'd been fighting with only to see him going for one of the discarded guns.
Cursing, BJ went after him but before he could reach him, the man had shot him. He grimaced before snarling. He tackled the man and grabbed the man's writ and yanked it in an upturned angle and broke it. When he tried to use his othe hand to hit him, BJ blocked it and broke it as well, forcing it up with one jerk causing the elbow the bend the other way. He pushed off of the man as he screamed in pain. He bent down and grabbed the gun before he shot the man in the head. He turned to Mike,pain spreading with every motion.
"Damn, you look lik shit." Mike said and chuckled as he twisted one man's head around so that he was looking backwards.
"Well you dont look much better." BJ said with a grin as he saw someone run up behind Mike. He raised the gin and shot him without thought and Mike continued walking as if nothing had happened. As he looked Bj over he growled softly. BJ chuckled. "Really? you gone go bat shit on me?" He asked and Mike shoved him a bit but then caught him when he looked as if he would fall over. Mike frowned and put his arms around his waist as he helped him to walk despite his own pain and injuries.
"You know, everybody is gonna think we've got something going on between us if you keep babying me like this." BJ joked as they began to make their way to the car.
Mike growled and huffed. "Well if they dont know by now then
they're fucking stupid. Besides we dont have to hide it anymore. We'll be free to do what we will. " He said and it was clear to see that the prospect of freedom was something he wholeheartedly looked foward to. "And love whomever we choose." He said and nuzzled BJ's neck before nipping him playfully.
"Dont be getting nothing started you cant finish." He said with a soft growl.
"I always finish and I make sure you do as well." Mike said and hit him on the ass before putting his arm back around BJ.
"That you do." Was all BJ could say in response to that last comment. They were nearing the area they had Parked the car when BJ heard someone coming up behind him.
"Fucking Faggots!" He yelled and at the cock of the gun. BJ felt himself being pushed to the ground and gun shots going off. BJ stared in horror as Mike was shot repeatedly in the chest. The pain that was etched on his face was one that would always haunt BJ. "NO!" He yelled as he made his way to his mate. His whole world stopped as he gathered Mike in his arms as he pressed his hands on his chest trying to stop the bleeding.
He heard the gun cock and didnt care. A shot rang through the area and he looked into Mikes eyes as the goofball tried to smile at him. "Well this suck balls dont it?" He asked and started to laughed but it came out as a bloody cough and each breath was labored and rattled.
"Shut up you damn fool." BJ said with a watery laugh as tears rolled own his face. He pulled Mike into his lap and began to gently rock him. "We're gonna get you to Fox and she gone patch ya up. Hold on ya hear me?" Bj said . He'd tried to say it lightly but his fear and sorrow was making it hard to speak. He heard movement nearby and snarled as his vision began to change to that of his cat. It took a moment for him to realize that it was Terrill and his group.
They had killed the man that had shot Mike and was now looking down at them. Sadness etched clearly on their faces. "It's not that bad." He said and coughed again. The sound broke Bj's heart and he hugged him closer. Truth was Mike was terrified and didnt want to die but he knew there was no getting around this one. He cast his eyes up at BJ and cupped his face. "Dont cry Love, you know it breaks my heart to see you upset." Bj clutched his hand and gave him a forced smile.
"Now that's just creepy." Mike said and smiled. His fingers snaked around to the back of his neck and pulled him down towards him. Terrill motioned for his group to spread out and secure the area and give them a chance to say their good-byes.
Their foreheads met and tears fell down Mike's face. Bj held him up and lowered his lips to Mike's and they shared a long kiss. Their blood and tears mixed as theire love for one another was shared through that one action. They both pulled back and looked into each other's eyes. "Im scared. B." Mike whispered as he felt his strength waning. Bj brushed back his hair and kissed his forehead. "There is nothing to be afriad of Baby. It's a place of beauty and peace waiting for ya on the other side." He whispered.
"How do you know?" Mike asked in an even quieter voice that had BJ's heart seizing.
"Becasue you're going there so I know it's gotta be." He said and smiled. Mike closed his eyes and was quiet a moment and panic rushed through him.
"You're so corney." Mike said and tried to smiled but it seemed like it was too much to muster one. "Always for you, love." Bj said and could sense Mike's spirit growing weaker.
Mike lifted his lids despite the fact that they felt like lead. "I Love You." Mike said softly and and tried to pull BJ closer.
"Dont let them get into too much trouble while I'm gone." He said and tried to smile again. BJ smiled and bent down closer to him ,so that he didnt have to expend the precious energy he had left, before he kissed him. Bj knew the moment he took his last breath and was gone. He looked down at Mike's body and just simply stared. He was gone. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he sat there and held Mike in his arms. "I love you too. Sleep well and rest easy ,Love." He said before he just broke down and wept clutching Mike to his heart.
Terrill and the others clenched their jaws as they tried to shut out the weeping of a comrade and the passing of another. others began to burst through the foliage, but upon seeing the two,they stopped and looked in disbelief. Their reactions varied and but essentially they were all the same. No one dared to get close but merely watched over the two.

Antonio wsa cursing as he made his way through the patch of forest they had been in. He'd been shot in the shoulder and in the leg he'd been stabbed several times and he had a gash just above his right eye that had blood dripping into his eye. They had been forced to seperate. He didnt know where anyone from his team was and he only had one clip left. He snarled at the situation as he kept going. His aim was for the neutral territory,he figured no one would be in the area and it'd give him a chance to assess his wounds and tend to them.
He heard a stick snap and he moved into the shadows, Knife in hand ready to attack should he need to. There was another explosion that lit up the area and he sighed in releif when he saw Alexander and his group.
"Where the hell have you bitches been hiding?" He demanded with a growl. Alexander looked him up and down and grimaced.
"Damn they did a number on your ass. Shouldnt you be going away from danger in your present state?" He asked with a raised brown and Antonio frowned.
"What the hell are you talking about I am." He growled.
"No bruh, you're going into red zone one and they will definitely put a bullet in your ass if they see you." Alexander said with his own frown. "Are you ok, man? Never seen you so turned around before."
"I'm fucking fine. Have you seen any of my brothers? Or Foxxy? She is in here somewhere." He asked and there was a bit of worry in his voice.
"Alexander looked at him for a moment befroe sighing. "No I havent seen them. If I do I will do my best to keep em safe." He said then looked in the direction that he was going and back at Antonio."Seriously though, dont go this way they will kill you on the spot." He warned before motioning for his men to move out.
"Be safe." Alexander said over his shoulder.
"And you do the same." Antonio said and winced as he tried to move and pain ruched at him. For a second his vision blurred but as soon as it had passed he foreced himself to keep going but this time in a different direction.

Anthony snapped the neck of one only to have the other jaw him. He came back with a gut wrencher that stole the man's breath as he bent down, he uppercutted him and broke his jaw. He grabbed the man's shoulders and yanked him down as he brought his knee up hard into the man's chest caving it in.He was tossing the man away from him when he felt the biting sting of a blade in his back before it was snatched out and plunged in again. He clenched his jaw and side stepped when he felt the knife leave his body and the man readied to stab him again.
He twisted and grabbed the man's wrist bending it backwards with a snap breaking it and making him drop the knife. He caught the man's other arm as he tried to hit him and yanked it at an ungodly angle and yanked him close. As the man screamed in pain and struggled to get away he left his throat exposed. Anthony's fangs elongated and he sank them deep into the man's exposed throat with a snarl and ripped his throat out. The blood lust that started to fill him was a bit hard to control but he did so.
He turned snarling as tossed the body on the floor and his stormy grey eyes landed on Evera. Blood dripped from his mouth as he wore a grim expression on his face. They shouldnt have left her. They should have made sure she was with them. When Voss pushed eon out of Evera, he flinched. He was responsible for this.
Slowly he walked over to her and knelt beside her checking her puls. It wasnt strong but it was steady. "Yea,she's alive but she needs immediate medical attention." He said as he looked over her wounds. She had bruises all over as well as various cuts and bite marks but it seemed that the her arm had taken the brunt of it. "Je m'excuse petit oiseau "(I'm sorry little bird) He said softly in french. It was what he'd called her when she was little and was upset. There was so much guilt seeing her as she was.
He started to gently brush her hair from her face when her eyes shot open and she tried to fend him off with one arm. It broke his heart to see such fear in one such as Evera. "petit oiseau, calm down. It's me." Anthony said sternly. She stiffened and stared at him. There was so much accusation in her eyes as she stared at him with eyes that almost mirrored his own. "You left me." She said hurt tinged her voice and he tried not to flinch.
"I know,but never again." He said and tore off his shirt and tore it into strips as he used it to wrap wrap up her arm and make a sling for it. From the feel of it, the bone ws broken in several places and there was some serious nerve damage. The movement of her arm had her crying out before went silent. She'd passed out once again and tears ran down from the corners of her eyes. He gently picked her up in his arms and looked to Raider. "Can you carry her out of here? I will take the lead and get us out and Voss can bring up the rear and provide cover." He said as he subconsciously played with the blood on his hands.

Jay growled low at being pushed but he followed none the less, the movement causing his wound to bleed more but ignored it.
Foxxy was less than happy. She didnt agree with leaving them there, plans be damned. Those were newborn babies and Eliora was in no shape to protect them.They should be doing something to help them not running away! It was so frustrating it brought her to tears. She wanted to help them. It wasnt fair. She fought and struggled and wept at the whole situation. She turned pleading eyes to Ka'ron for a moment and thought. 'What if that was her and their children?' That thoughtthad her blushing in light of the situation and she cried even more.
Jay saw movement and turned to see Alexander and his group heading inside. "Fox,calm down. Look, Alex is here. He will help her and the babies but we have to get you out of here." He said and she looked back as the group went inside the building. She stopped her struggles and continued to weep.

Alexander wasnt too keen on leaving Antonio as he was but his priority was Eliora and her children.It was easy for him and his team to gain access to the area because no one suspected them to oppose Benjamin and he used that to his advantage. They helped whereever they could,freeing up men so that they could go help their comrades. When he reached the main building it looked as if part of it had been blown up and he cursed. "Let's go." He said and they head for the inside.
He'd caught movement and saw that it was Foxxy fighting and struggling to get out of the arms of the one who held her. He would have gave her aide had he not seen Jay close on their heals as the small group ran from the building. He had but a second before another explosion shook the ground beneath his feet. He dismissed the retreating group and went for Eliora and the babies.
