Kris chuckled slightly and looked at Ewan. "He can step foot in here. A crucifix burns his skin yes, but he needs to touch it. The same with holy water. He looks like a normal human to everyone. Nobody is going to disrupt him and if he's willing to...er..talk outside then I'd rather it be out there then in here." She wasn't looking foward to going out there but it would be much worse if he came in there. "Besides, what could he do? Kill me?" She laughed softly and stepped back over to the window, opening it. She wasn't going to say that killing her would be the nicer thing.

"Kris, please," he begged seeing her already, halfway out the window. "He's not just gonna give you a lecture. I can protec---ok I cant protect you from him, but I could try. Atleast let me go with you. Id rather him take his anger out on me instead of you. Your better at this than me. If I ever fail, atleast you'll be here for Alex. Come on, dont go!"
Ewan had been in two brawls and during both, he'd failed to protect Alex. Maybe Hunter was wrong. Maybe Hunter should stay after all. Ewan wandered back over to Alex's bedside, pulled up a chair and sat down. "I wish you'd let me help," he mumbled, halfway hoping that Kris would hear.

"I'll still be here you know. He's not going to rid me of my job, he knows I want out of it already. He thinks I'm amazing at it or something. I know what he's planning on doing to me and he won't take it out on you. He'll stop you from getting to me. Come if you want, but you're just going to watch me get hurt." She had given up trying to stop Ewan from doing things. If he was convinced he could help then she would let him come.

Ewan was torn between staying with Alex or going with Kris. What if he left Alex alone and someone came in and hurt her? What if he stayed with Alex and Kris came back in bad shape? What if she didnt come back at all? He let out a loud sigh and looked down at Alex. "What do you think I should do? Oh thats a stupid question..." He looked over at the open window and shook his head in disbelief. "How can this be happening?We're good people arent we? If he wont kill her then Ill have to stay with you. Someone could sneak in. Im paranoid, I know. But its for the best I suppose," he said, gently holding her better hand in his.

Alex raised an eyebrow at Ewan. "Who are you guys talking about? Is Damien back?" She asked, fear in her eyes. She would rather Kris went out there alone if Damien was out there. She knew that Kris couldn't die and she didn't want Kris to get hurt but she didn't want Damien to get in here to finish the job.
Kris jumped out the window and landed on the ground, a couple of feet infront of Ryan. She straightened up and gazed into Ryan's eyes. He looked calm, unlike Satan. "I'm sorry...I--" She started to say but got cut off as Ryan held up a hand.
"Kris. I'm surprised by your actions and quite francally I'm disappointed. You've let your emotions get the better of you. You disobeyed a direct order from me. Unfortunately, I must give you a punishment. You know how fond I am of you and this will pain me as much as it pains you." Ryan looked at Kris with a serious expression on his face.

"No, he's not here. Calm down. Look, if Kris takes too long, im gonna have to go out there and find her. Unless.....you tell me to stay. I wont turn you down. You look.....a little frightened," he said, giving her a reassuring smile. "Im getting better at this protecting thing. Ill have to be almost invincible if I wanna keep you alive" He laughed softly and squeezed her hand gently. "You feeling any better?" He'd heard that slayers heal faster than normal humans, but slower than werewolves.
Ewan listened carefully for any sign of creatures outside.

Alex stared at Ewan for a couple of minutes and finally decided that he was telling her the truth. She relaxed and it made her feel slightly better. "Still feel horrible and everything hurts. But if you need to I'll let you go, since you want to be the hero." She smiled slightly at that, to show that she was joking.
Kris had a feeling she knew what it was. And sure enough, Damien walked out of the trees. He was croutched over a little, his bones still healing. He was in pain but was determined not to show it.
"You know what to do," Ryan said.
Damien nodded and changed into his wolf form with a grin. He charged after Kris though not as fast as before. He tackled her before she could move out of the way. Ryan had taken away her teleportation for the time being to make sure she endured her punishment. Damien sunk his teeth into Kris' arm and she surpressed a shout.

"Hero.....hmm...that sounds nice. Am I your he--" just then he heard the sound of a werewolf transformation. 'Damien' he thought immediatly. "Alex, ill only be gone for a second. Ill probably be in a bed next to you by morning." Ewan hesitated for a moment and then lowered his lips to hers. He barely brushed them against hers, hoping not to scare her off. "Goodbye then."
He got up quickly and dove out the window. He rolled down the roof and landed on his feet. He rushed to the battle ground and ran at Damien, hitting him as hard as he could. He transformed and threw himself at Damien again, hoping to catch him by surprise. He dugg his claws into Damien's flesh and howled loudly in triumph.

Damien yelped then growled loudly and sunk his teeth into Ewan's neck. He tried to jerk Ewan off of him, but it wasn't going too well.
Kris was surprised when she saw Damien fly to the side and only realized till afterwards that Ewan was responsible. She glanced down at her arm and made a face. It was bleeding a lot, the teeth had gone through her whole arm. She started to walk foward to help Ewan but Ryan held her back. "Lets see how this plays out." He commented.

Ewan growled loudly and snapped back at Damien. He twisted his body around and threw Damien off of him. Before Damien could react, Ewan was ontop of him, ripping into the flesh of his neck, shoulder and leg. The scene was covered with blood and so was Ewan. He backed away and circled Damien, growling menacingly.
'Im doing it. Im actually winning. No, dont get caught up in victory. Keep your head clear.....' he thought, keeping his eyes on Damien.

Ewan had badly injured Damien and he stayed in a laying position for a while. Ryan stepped foward and grinned at Ewan. "Impressive. You should be working for me with that attitude. Not with the slayer."
Damien slowly got to his feet, panting heavily. He growled but it didn't have as much force as he wanted it to.
"No Damien. I think we'll end it for tonight. Kris," He said, turning towards her. "You better thank your friend here. You got off easy. Don't let there be a next time though. I don't like seeing you get hurt." He said and walked off, Damien limping behind still in wolf form.
Kris was cradling her injured arm which had stopped bleeding already. It was still the same big sized wound but it could've been worse and she was thankful that Ewan had come. She knew that she still had been given her power back.

Ewan stared Ryan and Damien down until they were out of sight, and then changed back into human form. He had a gash on the side of his neck from Damien and a few deep scratches, but not much else. He was wearing a huge grin from ear to ear. He'd never felt this good before. He walked over to Kris and checked her condition out. "Lets get you to a hospital room. You wont need much by the time we get there, but a bandage wouldnt hurt."
Ewan stayed away from her hands, picked her up and scaled the building to the open window. He didnt want her to stay outside, without a guard. Once inside, he set her down carefully and looked into the closet. He dabbed his wounds clean with a towel and then threw on a long, white doctors cloak, to cover his bare chest. His wounds were healing nicely, but scars would always be there to remind him of his battles. He pulled up a chair for Kris and sat down next to Alex's bedside. He was silent the entire time. Finally he looked down at Alex and smiled. "You alright?" He glanced at Kris, directing the question to her as well.

"I'm fine, there's no need for a bandage." Kris insisted as she sat down. She grabbed a towel and pressed it to her wound to make sure it had stopped bleeding.
Alex could barely see Kris but thankfully could see Ewan. "I'm the same. What happened to you? And did Kris get hurt?" She asked with her forehead creased. She winced and sighed. This was going to be really annoying.

"Eh, I think we'll be fine. We both heal pretty fast." Ewan was still grinning. He didnt want to brag, but he couldnt hold it in much longer. "Aw Alex, you should've seen it, you should've seen me! This may sound annoying, but I cant believe I did it! I swear, the look on Damien's little puppy dog face was priceless! I can beat him now Alex. I know I can. Im finally worthy of calling myself your guard dog. I can protect you now." Ewan finally ended his little ramble and grinned, holding her hand.

Alex smiled, ignoring the pain. She was proud of Ewan. "Good job! Just think, soon you might not need me," she replied. There was a hint of disappointment in her voice. What if he thought she couldn't handle being the slayer? What if he told her to stop and leave? She had fallen for him and she thought he liked her too but she couldn't be to sure. At the moment she wasn't sure what was a dream and what was reality. Him kissing her before could've been her dreaming.
