Angel sighed. She pointed behind him. She frowned. She narrowed her eyes as well.

"Have a look for yourself if you are calling me a liar."

She looked way from him after that. She went silent and spoke no further at the moment.

The ground seemed to spin beneath his feet. Andrew's legs wobbled as he turned to look where she'd pointed. Confusion covering his face, liar? What had he said while passed out?

The body was a still, oozing heap. The monster would never get up again.

"You did it!" Andrew rejoiced. Relief flooded over him like cool waster. Yes, cool water sounded wonderful. The river continued to rush past and Andrew stumbled toward it, struggling to stay upright.

The adrenaline faded and the pain took over. The fight had ended and what was left to fought for? Go lay down. Go forget. He didn't care if he never woke up.

He fell to his knees on the bank and sunk his hands in. He lay down in the water to submerge his shoulder and hoped it would lessen the pain.

"Are you badly hurt? You should go get that leg taken care of. Good luck." He said through gritted teeth. He could feel the blackness coming again.

Angel sighed and nodded.

"Do not move. You are clearly exhausted and hurt."

She shook her head. 'Idiot' she thought. She frowned. She blinked when he put his hands in the water and all that. She shook her head again.
"My leg is nothing compared to what happened to you."
She took a breath.

"You need to recover. We should find a safe place to rest for a while before we start to head back."

Angel froze when she realized how she sounded, how it seemed like she was acting like she was starting to care. She actually almost turned red at the thought of that for a moment.

Andrew partially comprehended the words she spoke. Recover, safe.
Yes they were safe now, the monster was dead. Safe. The river was safe, so cold and shivering. Rest. He would lay right here and rest. It was getting dark, or was that just his eyes closing? They should close, rest she said. Rest. He slipped out of consciousness.

An animal snarled at the dead monster from the trees. That thing didn't smell right. It needed to be chased away or killed, gotten rid of! Another snarl. It was a small pack of wolves issuing their teritorial warning.

Angel blinked. She raised her head. She heard the growling. She knew animals were nearby. To her, it sounded like wolves. She frowned and narrowed her eyes. She tried to stand up. She had to try and keep them at bay. That was what she thought anyway.

"Darn wolves..."
She muttered. She let out a humans' growl, but winced a bit because of her leg.

The wolves crouched their teeth barred in the trees before the lead charged out at the fallen monster. The others circled round it snapping at the flesh and almost coughing as they gagged on the taste. But it didn't seem to move out retaliate in any way and they continued to investigate the horrible body.

Only one wolf flanking the monster had seen angel and turned it's attention to a living threat in it's territory. The wolf growled and stalked toward the woman, warning her to leave.

Angel narrowed her eyes. She did not move from where she was. She stared down the wolf and continued to frown. She was not going to back down, not even for a second. She was dead silent for a time. She prepared to hold out her weapon towards the wolf.

A second wolf approached beside the first. The woman didn't seem threatening. But she also wasn't leaving. That was a problem. They sprang forward to try and chase her into the river. They growled, barked and bit at her. Jumping up to push her backward.

Angel slashed with her sword. She did her best to keep the wolves at bay. She glanced at Adam once or twice. She frowned. She kept slashing with her sword.

The other wolves fanned out and circled around gradually making their way closer and closer. Those in the river coming from behind paid no attention to Andrew, as if he was nothing more than a log washed to shore. They attacked Angel from all sides at once. Their feet stepped on Andrew without damage. He was as harmless as tree.

Angel dodged, jumped, slashed, whatever she could. She was going to take down whatever wolves she could. She was not going to give up. She kept glancing at Andrew at times. She found herself really wanting him to be ok.

She found herself trying to protect Andrew most of all.

Three of the wolves where killed, and the other two slunk a little farther back for a moment to prepare for their next attack.

Andrew was unconscious, his face pale from the cold water. The battle that had gone on around him had shifted his position, as the water ran by it pulled him slightly deeper into the river. His head went under water but he didn't wake even though it began to drown him.

Angel glanced over at Andrew. She found herself gasping. Soon enough, she would find herself trying to get to him and pull him out of the water. She almost ignored the wolves for a time.

Andrew was pale. His body light, drifting in the water as Angel moved him. The current pushing and pulling on him. But if his bare skin did touch Angel it had no negative affects on her.

The wolves did not chase Angel once she was into the water. They lined up on their side of the river like a fence blocking her return to their territory.

Angel did her best to drag him away. She just barely got across the water. She was exhausted by the time she managed to get him onto land. Her leg, being in the shape it was in, did not help.

Angel collapsed soon after.

Andrew coughed and rolled to his side as she pulled him out of the water. He quickly reversed that motion and rolled flat onto his back again to catch his breath. He stared up at the sky, the trees above him. They seemed different somehow. He looked over at Angel, collapsed on the ground.

He rolled up onto his side and pushed off the ground. He glanced at his hand and immediately sat back down. He held both hands up in front of his face. They were blank. The marks were gone. He looked at the back and the front again to be sure. A smile broke out as he pushed up his sleeves to see his blank arms. He pulled the collar of his shirt out to look at his chest and pulled up a pant leg to his knee. He was completely free!

He laughed out loud. "It's gone! Angel! It's gone!"

Angel blinked. She just barely opened her eyes. She barely noticed what he was doing, at least at first. She found herself wincing when he shouted happily like that. She could barely even keep her eyes open, let alone use her voice.

"That....that is....."
She collapsed again, eyes closed. She was out cold.

Andrew scrambled to his feet and grabbed hold of a bush on the riverbank with both hands. Nothing happened. He laughed again in delight, he had forgotten the softness of a green leaf between his fingers. Now he was sure Angel would be safe from him.

He knelt on the ground carefully shaking her shoulder. "Angel? Angel, wake up."

Angel did not wake up. She was breathing. But, she was exhausted. Taking down that creature, fighting those wolves, getting him out of the river, etc, it had all taken a toll on her. She could barely even move, let alone open her eyes or anything like that. She barely even heard his voice.

Andrew knew he was not strong enough move her, at least not far. It would be a long walk out of the woods again. He looked up at the sky, there was plenty of daylight left. He paced back and forth, touching trees and grass and bushes and insects in the area around Angel until the excitement died down.

His own exhaustion sunk in again and he lay down to take a nap since that was what they both needed. He fell asleep and woke several hours later with his fingers bent around the stem of a wildflower. He smiled at it and got up to stretch. He went over to see if Angel had awoken yet.
