Niki lay against the large oak tree. Her hart was pounding and her bones ached from running. She was finally "safe" even though she feared she was not. This was halfling territory, yes, but she had spent the last 8 years in the human terrotory and was afraid of how the halfling would treat her.

Rini sensed heavy breathing near by, her sences tuned. "Whos there?!" the young girl inquired. The girl didn't look much younger then herself, 8 or 9, while Rini had the appearance of a 12 year old.
Rini's wolve ears perked forward, drinking in the sounds around her, prepared to transform, though she wasn't to skilled. If all else failed she had her trustworthy knife.

Niki herd somthing. Her ears perked up under the cloak that hid much of her face and figure. In her wolf form it covered all of her body in order to hide. She sunk even further into the roots of the tree in order to hide.

Rini picked up some movement. Swinging around the tree trunk, Rini landed neatly near the girl. "You might as well show your self. I know your here. This is halfling territory, you have the sent of a human. Come out before I just kill you." Rini said coldly as she usually did when dealing with 'trespassers'

Niki looked up her, eyes shining with the tears that flooded her eyes for weeks of running. She pulled the hood of the cloak reviling her wolf like features. Instinctovely she pulled her ears back in respect twards the one who threatened her. "Please dont hurt me..." She wimpered.

Rini pulled back, astonished. "Y-You're... You're a halfling!" She said, stating the obvious. "Why do you smell like a human?" She asked incredously. "It seems suspicious..." She said softly, crouching next to the younger, hand ready to spring for her dagger if need be.
"What are you doing here?" She asked slowly, keeping her eyes on the wolven ears.

"When I was small... they took me away and brought me to the human terrotory... They killed my family... But took me in until I started to change... Then chased me here... I have been running for 30 moons..." She said horsely. She was weak from tring to get to saftly and now whe was being quetioned by her own kind.

"I don't fully trust this... but you may be useful. Here, follow me. I have food and water you may enjoy." She said, offering her hand to the girl. "Theres a stream not far from here." She said, pointing towards the north.

"Thank you!... ah..." Niki fell back as she tried to get up, she clutched her side and shriveled back. She wimpered in pain as she dew back the cloak to revel her badly wounded side. A bullet wound two or three days old was despetely trying to heal but continued to open and reopen. Niki cried out in pain not in tears but wolf wimpers, a true sign of fatality followed by uncontroably transforming into her wolf form and then... Death...

Rini blinked. "A-A-Are you ok?!?!?!" Rini asked, worried. She wasn't used to dealing with bullet wounds, as halflings used arros and spears (all that good medival stuff! ^^)
"Here, I'll take you to the spring!" She said urgently, motioning for the girl to get on her back so as to carry her to the fromentioned spring. "Hop on." She said softly, reassuringly.

Niki struggled to move forward onto the girl failing several times until she managed to wrap her arms around the older girls neck.
"Thank you..." She said softly before passing out.

''No problem, just hang on tight." She said, unware that the girl had passed out. She bent her knees and pulled her heels up, preparing to run on her toes so as increase her speed.
Racing through the forest Rini finally arrived at the spring. She dropped the girl to the ground, realizing she was unconscience. "Wake up!" She demanded, shaking the girl.

Niki wimpered as she began to transform into her wolf form, not by will but by force. The small wolf had odd markings under her eyes in the shape of crecent moons and her fur was slightly blueish. A red spot was found on her side where the bullet hit. The fur was stained red and her breathing became uneven.

"WAKE UP!" Rini demanded. She pulled the girl towards the water, splashing her with the cool water. "WAKE UP!!" She yelled, hoping the girl would wake up. She noticed the bullet wound, took a deep breath, and began working on prying the bullet out.
EWEWEWEWEWEEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEEWW! She thought as the blood covered her fingers.

Niki wimpered and opened her eyes. they shown blue in the dimming light. She struggled to reach her wound to help clean it but only ended up being more pained by it.
