"Come on Ewan...slowly...carefully...." Hunter led Ewan into a medium sized cave on the outskirts of town and set him down in the darkness. He lit a few torches that he'd left in there earlier and tended to Ewan's injuries. For some reason, the wounds werent healing right and seemed to be getting worse. Ewan's eyes were black and had dark circles underneath his eyes. He was pale and sickly and needed blood. Unfortunatly, everything Hunter would give Ewan blood, he'd spat it back up. He couldnt hold down anything. Hunter only saw one way out of this. He had to make Ewan a hybrid. He'd left a letter for Laurell at her usual hang out and prayed that she'd come.
Ewan layed down on the cold, damp ground and coughed up some of the blood Hunter had forced down his throat earlier. Hunter paced about the cave, waiting patiently for Laurell.

Laurell slunk through the trees her arm held stiffly to one side, she had got The note Hunter had left for her and was intriqued... The cave was dark but a small light flickered in its depths. laurell paused at the entrance and peered into the gloom. she could see a figure moving about and assumed it was hunter. With a sigh she checked behind her making sure she wasnt being followed before walking slowly into the Cave. "You wanted to see me" She breathed softly her voice gentle like a breeze.

Hunter turned to the front of the cave and noticed Laurell's figure. A small smile appeared on his face, knowing that she could probably save Ewans life. "Hello Laurell. Ive got a favor to ask of you." He pulled her aside and spoke softly, not wanting to frighten Ewan anymore than needed. "Laurell, I need you to bite him. Enough to change him. That battle the other night really did something to him. After this, im gonna go check on the slayer. So in all, i need you to bite him and then stay here with him for a little less than an hour, just in case he has some problems with the change while im gone. Please do this for me. I know we've had an....interesting past, but I forgave you. Ive gotten over it and I think we can work together...."

Laurell half smiled at Hunter as he led her to one side.. She could see the prone figure of Ewan and she smiled wider. He wasnt healing well 'so much for his werewolf powers' she thought before turning her attention to Hunter and what he was saying. she frowned slightly "You want me to bite HIM" she said slightly shocked, Laurell shook her head, this guy had effectively attacked her and had urged the slayer on to almost kill her and now hunter wanted her to save his life. "Give me a really good reson why i should Hunter. I mean you have forgiven me But he tried to kill me" she asked softly her hand pushing her eye back from her eyes as she looked up into hunters face.

"Because he's like a son to me. I treated him like crap and now I come back to find that you shot him! You hurt him and he needs you. You tried to hurt the slayer, whom you know, he loves very much. You started the fight, so dont blame him. You and that Damien. Do something good for once Laurell. Change your ways for me. Please for me. Do this one little thing for me. It wont take long......"
Ewan started to moan in pain as the silver particles in his wounds burned. Hunter took another step toward Laurell, his face inches from hers. "Please Laurell."

Laurell shook her head Hunter would never underfstand why she did the things she did and she couldnt expect him to really. she hadnt meant to hurt anyone the other night, she was only playing... then it got out of hand. She twirled her hair in her fingers as Ewan moaned, a small sigh escaping her lips as she looked at him, She knew this was something she should do. her mind made up she looked up at hunter "Ok if thats what you want. But will he accept my blood in return?" she asked her voice resigned "If im to save him completely then he has to take some of my blood to" she bit her lips gently. Without waiting for Hunters reply she wandered over to where Ewan was laid and knelt beside him "You might have forgiven me Hunter... But he never will" she whispered

Ewan in too much pain to even hear what they were saying. There was a loud buzzing noise ringing in his head. Hunter followed her and shook his head. "Of course he will. If you save him and change your ways, he will. I know Ewan. I insulted him, I hurt him badly and he still forgave me. And believe me, as long as the pain goes away, he'll take your blood." Hunter knelt down next to her and kissed her cheek. "Thanks Laurell. You're a real friend." Before he could see her reaction to his kindness, he got up and disappeared in darkness. Just before he left the cave, he shouted, "Take care of him. Ill be back soon!"

Laurell shook her head as Hunter left the Cave she wiped at her cheek as if the movement could remove the kiss he had planted there. with a sigh she ran her hand over Ewans face, his skin was clammy and feverish, she let her fingers trail down to his shoulder feeling the small hole the bullet had entered. "Yeah i'll do this for you Ewan, I dont expect anything in return for it" she sighed as she lowered her mouth to his neck, her hands moving his head slightly to one side so that the vein was exposed. Closing her eyes laurell bit down breaking through the skin feeling the hot blood rush into her mouth, She gagged slightly, the taste of werewolf was sickening, bitter and stale. but she forced herself to drink a little. She lifted her head placing two fingers over the small wound on his neck to stem the flow of blood as she bit her free wrist hard drawing her own blood to the surface. she sucked gently on the wound making it flow faster before lowering the wrist to Ewans mouth and wriggling it between his lips "Drink" she whispered.

Ewan let out a small moan of pain as her teeth broke through his skin, but the pain only lasted a few moments. His eyes were closed and his breathing slow, when he felt something wet between his lips. Then he heard the word 'drink.' He didnt hesitate and started sucking on her wrist. At first, the sucking was slow and he barely drank any. That is, until the taste finally settled in. It was shocking at first but he grew to like it. He was so thirsty. She was like a cold glass of lemonade on a hot day. He sucked at her wrist and drank as much as he could. He finally realized that he was draining her and forced his mouth away. He was still pale, but he looked a little better. The change from werewolf to hybrid would take a while and he knew it. When he finally had some strength back, he looked up at Laurell and gave her a small smile. "Thanks," he choked out, his voice weak from the past two days events.

Laurell bit her lip as his lips clamped round her wrist, she struggledno to pull away as he drank deeply feeling her blood rush from her wound. Would he drain her in his haste or maybe this was Hunters way of getting rid of her. Laurel felt him push her wrist away from his mouth and she curled up upon into cradling it against her chest stemming the flow by spitting on the wound. her body shook as she turned to look at Ewan, he was still pale but he would improve now. laurell stared at him as he mumbled his thanks and she forced herself to smile at him "Rest now I will watch over you" she whispered as she moved slightly away from him to sit cross legged on the floor

Ewan frowned when he noticed that she was being apprehensive. "You would've never done this if Hunter hadnt asked you to, right?" he asked quietly, wanting give his voice a bit of a rest. He tried to sit up, but after a few failed attempts, he layed back down, keeping his head turned towards her. Resting sounded nice, but he wanted to get t know Laurell. Obviously she didnt like or trust him. Then again, he shouldnt be nice to her. She'd hurt Alex badly and deserved a 'death' sentence. On the OTHER hand, she'd just saved his life. On the other OTHER hand, she'd only done it because Hunter had asked her. He didnt know what to think.

Laurell watched Ewan as he spoke to her, he didnt understand her or how she worked. Silently she shook her head "No, your wrong there, I would have done it even if Hunter hadnt asked" she whispered her voice soft and hardly carrying in the still air of the cave, she saw him trying to sit up andsighed "Rest dont try to move to much" she scolded softly before smiling at him. "You seemed to have me wrong from the start" she mumbled almost so quietly that he wouldnt hear her "I'm not all bad" her voice was as soft as a breeze. she Moved closer to him and wiped a damp cloth across his forehead. "You need to rest to gain your strength back" she told him gently her eyes looking everywhere but at him

Ewan nodded his head slowly, realizing that she was right. He needed his strength, especially if he was going to go see Alex later. He closed his eyes and sighed, feeling the cloth cool his burning forehead. It was as if he had a werewolf virus. Atleast it would be over soon. He wouldnt be just a werewolf, but a hybrid. He relaxed his body, and adjusted his body to a comfortable position. He still wanted to speak with her though. Once Hunter got back, they'd never have this one on one time again. He wanted to know more about her true character. "So I was wrong, you say? I'll believe that. The Laurell Hunter told be about would never have done this for me. He no longer feels that way about you. After his recent trip to Europe, he's changed. He told me that what he'd told me before, about you, was false and that his anger was speaking through him. He was right....." he said softly, coughing at the end as he tried to catch his breath.

Laurell half smiled at him "Shhh dont talk to much, your bodies going to be going through some really massive changes" she told him softly placing one finger on his lips. she re-wet the cloth and wiped his face gently with it. "Hunter doesnt know much about me at all" she said a small smile on her lips "No one does" her eyes rested on his and she smiled wider. "I did some bad things in my time... really bad, but then i bet Hunter told you all about them" she giggled. "But deep down inside Im the same as Alex, You know the whole save the world from evil stint" she carried on speaking even though her eyes had wandered away from his face, "But the was a long long time ago" with a sigh she fell silent

Ewan listened intently, quite interested by her story. He ignored her rest comment and asked another question, but kept it short and to the point. He wanted to hear more about her. If he couldnt talk, he wanted to hear her side of the story. "You were a slayer then? Hunter didnt tell me that. I actually cant believe that you would torture anyone....you dont look like an evil vampire. Probably because you arent evil......" he said, smiling sweetly. The cold cloth felt good against his skin. She was right about the changes. He felt like his body was on fire. The pain wouldnt come for a while more.
