They run for 2 miles before he finally settles in beside her, matching her stride for stride. He had forgotten what it feels like to be on a hunt, the exhilaration of the chase. A small part of Puck begins to surface, feral and predatory. With a grin, he grabs her around the waist, lifting her off her feet and spinning her around him. She stifles a squeal of shock and glee, wrapping her arms around him to keep from falling.
He stares deep into her eyes, panting from the exertion, before finally looking around them. “You shouldn’t tempt me like that. I may not take it for a game next time.” “Like what?” She grins. “Running from me like I’m the one chasing you instead of those back at the compound.” He turns his eyes back on her and a little of the feral in them shows. A shiver runs down her; letting her know for once the game could turn very dangerous. “It’s almost time. We need to find a safe place to hide.” Owen’s head quickly turns towards where they had come from. “Sooner than later, I’m afraid. I hear a heilo coming.” They turn as one, racing for the nearest outcropping of rocks. He reaches one before her, waving her back as he crawls into a recess. She waits nervously, listening for the sound of pursuit. She finally sees his head emerge, finger to his lips to silence her as she begins to follow him. She nearly screams when she sees what he’s trying to keep her quiet for, several coiled rattle snakes asleep in the farthest corner from them. He puts a hand on her mouth, knowing from the widening of her eyes that her fear is about to take over. “Shh!” He whispers softly. “They will leave us alone if we stay on our side.” “How do you know?” She whispers back, shuddering beside him in fear. “Because I asked them to.” He curls his arms around her, quieting her shivers. “Before you ask how, I will not explain it at this time. We need to be quiet now or they will hear us. They are close.” She hears the sound of chopper blades circling overhead and she curls up tighter against him. She knew any minute now Xander would be pulling them home, she just hoped it would be before they are discovered. Soon she could hear heavily armed men running past their hiding place. Her eyes widen, glancing at Owen to see him quietly eyeing the opening. He glances down at her amulet, pulling it from over her head. With a swift jerk, he pulls it apart, revealing the SD card and a small tracking device hidden well within the metal. His eyes darken as he pushes the SD card down into her bra for safe keeping. With a flick of his wrist he tosses the tracking device towards the rattle snakes. One lifts its head, tasting the air around it. He makes a low hissing sound towards it, sending it back into slumber. He gently kisses the top of her forehead, eyes never leaving the opening as more sounds of armed men come closer. She tenses at the sound of movement towards the opening of their small cave. He pushes her to the other side of him, never realizing he’s pushing her closer to the snakes that are now wide awake. A hand appears in the opening and Owen swiftly brings his stone hand down on it. A scream agitates the snakes more, several slithering closer to the conflict. Eve tries to stand, stepping away from the snakes and closer to the now reaching hands of several people. The snakes follow, their tails now shaking vigorously. One strikes a hand nearest it, while another skirts around Owen. “Owen!” Eve yells, watching one approach her slowly. “OWEN!” He turns just as it strikes out at her, barely missing her. He jumps up, grabbing her just as he feels magic begin to surround them. She screams out in pain as they are pulled from the cave. ---------------------------------------------------- So did she get bitten? What will happen to them now?
