Maverick calmly hushed the dog with a stern look and slowly crept towards the deathly still figure of Jackie. "Its okay Gwenn, its me, Mav." The man smiled reassuringly at the beautiful dog and then slowly put his hand to her wrist in order to check her pulse. The young woman was still barely alive but he needed to get her some serious help as soon as possible. So, without hesitation, the man lifted the woman up into his strong arms and called to the dogs to follow. He hoped they would listen but if not then oh well. His main concern at that moment was Jackie and he did not have to worry about Gwenn for he knew she would follow and Luna was smart enough to listen to the dark voice that overtook his normal soft and warm tone. The only dog who he was unsure about was Fae, but maybe she would be smart enough to listen to the man.

Gwenn had grudgingly allowed the man to touch her master at first. He was a familiar smell, but as the man gathered her in his arms and made to leave Gwenn snarled and lunged at him, a booming half-bark ripping and tearing out of her throat. The wolf-dog felt no qualms at hurting him. After all, her master kept her safe and in turn, Gwenn would defend her.[\center]

It was as if someone was calling her from far away…and there was a familiar snarl too. Jackie opened her eyes. She was in someone's arms. "Mav?" she said in surprise. As the world rushed back to her, Jackie was aware of two things. First; her chest ached like her lungs didn't have enough air to breathe and every breath sent a sharp pain through her airways. And second, she was a mess. Her face was smeared with soot, while her winter gear was gray with ash. Even her vibrant pale ginger hair was gray. Jackie put her hand to her chest, hearing Gwenn's angry and anxious growls. "Gwenn, marche arrière," she choked out and the wolf-dog instantly quieted, slipping away into the surrounding trees, her yellow-orange watchful.

Maverick jumped out of the way right before Gwenn could destroy him and looked down at the awaking figure of Jackie. "Sh, its me, just give me a minute and I will ge you out of here. You okay?" His voice was soft, almost a whisper, and his eyes filled with tears from bth the smoke and the realization that he had almost lost two friends today in the fire. Walking swiftly towards the end of the woods trying to get out the man whistled to Luna and she ran ahead, leading him out of the disaster around him. The man was grateful to have the loyal yet vicious dog by his side. She may be evil but she still had the decency to listen to the man that saved her life. THe two creatures respected one another and in turn made a great duo.

"Mav, put me down, I'm fine," Jackie said, struggling to place her feet on the ground, "I've got to get Fae, she still back there."

Katie

Ic| Katie released a long, very worried sigh. She looked at Maya, who looked up at her as well and whined a bit. She knew there was trouble, and Katie was feeling very ill herself. Her face was black with ash and soot, and still burning from the intense heat of the flames. Then Maya barked, and emerging from the forest were Maverick and Jackie, laying still in his arms.

Adam

Ic| Adam nodded and instructed the girl to slam the door for it to properly shut. He raced up the icy drive, aware that they were slipping somewhat. What he couldn't believe was the time- it had already been a couple hours. He realized that the fire had been extinguished, but was still feeling empty. Like something terrible had happened... he just hoped he was wrong.

[logical nonsense]

"...come and take a walk on the wild side, let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain. like we're both insane..."

Nina smiled at Adam, reaching down and affectionately stroking the big dog, ruffling his big shaggy ears.
"You're so beautiful, big beautiful doggy.." she crooned, smiling at the big lug. "He's so amazing." she added, smiling once again at Adam. She couldn't help it. Despite the drama, she was so happy to be with him, like she'd always wanted to be. She'd just never worked up the courage.

Peanut wriggled out of her jumper, whining sweetly and clambering down her legs, to sit down near the older dog. Peanut then begun to swipe at the bigger husky's paw playfully, acting like the pup he was.
"Peanut, show some respect for your elders." Nina teased, giving the pup a scratch on the chin before leaning back on the seat, once again worried for the other pups.

Katie

OoC| Bump!

Ic| TWB

Adam

Ic| Adam smiled,
"Thanks." He said, looking deep into her beautiful eyes when he should have been watching the road. He quickly snapped back to attention and kept his eyes glued to the icy path ahead of him. He wished he could tell her but.. How could he? She was so perfect and he was so... Not perfect. He was just him.

Kasia nodded her blonde head and stepped into the vehicle, looking at the drivers wheel confusingly, it seemed to be on the left instead of the right like it was back home. She kept her keen evergreen gaze stuck on the steering wheel. "How do you drive like that...?" She asked curiously. Clearly the young girl wasn't from America but she was obviously from Europe, where things seemed a little different.

Kasia waited for Adam's reply patiently, still worrying about Maeve and how she was making out in the forest or somewhere around here...She set her head back onto the seat, warming herself up into the heat of the car.

Jackie wormed her way out of Maverick's arms. She staggered a little but caught her balance. She really felt better, just tired. As they had left the deeper part of the forest, breathing got easier as well. Behind Maverick two dogs slunk watchfully, one with a brown-black wolf pattern coat, the other with dark ginger fur.

[logical nonsense]

"...come and take a walk on the wild side, let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain. like we're both insane..."

Nina smiled gently at him, blinking her mixture-of-blue-green-and-brown eyes. Her eyes were definitely her favourite thing about her, except her long red hair, which was her pride and joy. Meh, who cared if she got teased for it, she loved it just the way it was. Her. She dropped her hand back into her lap, leaning back on her seat before sitting up straight again.
"There, there's the driveway to my house..." she said, pointing to a turnoff down the road. She had begun to tremble slightly, her eyes becoming a bit wet. She cared for these pups so much, and if any of them had escaped....

|OoC| Bump? 

[❝.ѕєfяу.❞]

Katie

OoC| I am SO, so, so, so, so, soooooooooo, so sorry about the inactiveness. I've been camping and.. Well my grandmother has Cancer and is dying quickly. She's been told she has only 6 months to live- but my whole family believes she has probably a week or two. :( But again I apologize for my inactiveness.

Ic| Katherine ran over to Jackie but staggered on the way, she nearly toppled over but caught herself and limped nearer to her. She wrapped her arms around her without warning, and squeezed her with a warm, concerned hug.
"Oh my god! Are you okay?" Her mind flooded with questions but those were the only that escaped her lips.

Adam

Ic| Adam chuckled a little,
"Where are you from?" He asked, a laugh still on his voice as he nodded to Nina. Beautiful Nina. He blinked and cleared his throat, then pulled into the driveway of her house. He jumped out of the truck and ran to the other side, using the front of the truck to support him.

"Yeah, I'm perfectly fine, Kat. I just took a nap in the forest when I found Fae. Everything's okay," Jackie said hoarsely, hugging her friend tightly, aware of Maverick standing behind her. Suddenly, she realized she was crying. Jackie gave a weak laugh, tears pouring down her sweet face. It was all too much…the fire, Fae, the danger her friends were faced with…why couldn't this have been just another normal day? So Jackie let the years flow, even though it hurt her chest terribly. They were all safe.

|OoC| That's fine Sef, we all have things come up. My sympathies about your grandmother, it's always hard to lose someone, and it's hurts even worse when it's drawn out. As long as the thread doesn't totally die, right? ❤

B U M P?

I don't want this thread to die. It's one of my favorites.

[❝.ѕєfяу.❞]

I'm sorry, it won't die, just give me some time to post. I've been uber busy lately and am going on another trip in the beginning of August i.e. Soon. Also, I'll be visiting my grandmother again if she'll see me before she... well y'know. :{ So I'm very sorry but I hope you can understand my situation.
