Lupe stepped back a bit when the fissure opened up, her eyes widening a little bit, before she smirked. [i]Wow, the cat's got some juice.[/i] She thought, wincing as another shot of pain went up her arm. She checked the bandages o see that they were already soaked with blood. "Goddamn it." She muttered. She needed to get to a semi-sane town and fast - she knew she wouldn't bleed out, but she could faint. [i]And there's no way in hell I'm fainting from that.[/i] She thought, scowling as she heard something from nearby. She turns towards it, loading her 22cal' with a bullet and aiming it at the newcomer. They come up slowly, saying that there would me more Vehemendogs coming. Lupe scoffed. "No shit sherlock. Already got two cuts from 'em. Don't need a third." She shot back, using her other hand to point to the scar on her right side and the new bandage on her left. "Bastard always come back. This pack though was only a trio. Vehemendogs are territorial, the other two must have been killed." She added, not moving her gun from it's spot, still aiming at the newcomer. "Now then. Who're you and why shouldn't I shoot you right now? I know a Scavenger when I see one - You're just waitin' for us to die so you can take our loot and piss off." She said, narrowing her eyes as Erebos growled at the guy.
