They walked the village and she tried to ignore the Imp who was doing what he did best being annoying. They found what was left of his men that were still able to stand in the center of the town. Most still were passed out or nursing a sore head. He found a place to sit on a log and she sat next to him at this feet. Her head resting on his leg, not realizing she was showing she accepted her place.



“I’m sorry I pulled you in to this” he looked down at her, his eyes filled with shame.



"You didn’t pull me into this. I knew what I was doing. There is no reason to be ashamed." She rubbed her cheek on his leg.



“If I wasn’t in that cave this would never had happened. This curse is not yours to carry”



"Fate happens. You were there for a reason, we met for a reason." She looked at him. "And no one should be alone to carry anything."She shifted her weight. "You see it as a curse and for you I guess it would be, but I don\'t. Not really. I can see, hear, smell things like never before. We help those who need it, if we were just plain human we couldn’t have destroyed that Cyclops."



“Maybe, but there are times…” he thought for a moment, it was close. He had to make sure she was FAR away from him the next full moon.



"What do you mean? I know you have trouble control him at times, but compared to when we first met I think you handle him well, you don’t fight him but work together."



“Not during full moons. Then it’s a totally different thing then blood lust”



"The moon affects you? Interesting. In what way if it’s not blood lust? "



“Another kind of lust, FAR stronger” he grabbed the log, making it split open a little. The thought of the things he did back then in that state.

She heard the crunch of the log. "You’re not at fault completely for his actions. You were unable to have control over him. Whatever you did you did not do on purpose. You need to learn to forgive yourself."



“Maybe, but I will have to leave you soon. At least for a few nights”



"O, alright. So we are going to stay here until then? "



“I want you to be ready to leave in an instant and I want you to put up defenses for a fast and strong monster”



"Alright. I will. What are you expecting? "



“Probably the worst thing we will ever face. Oh, and make sure that all the women are locked down tight and under NO circumstances will you fight this beast”



She gave him an odd look. "Alright I will do as you ask. When does this need to happen? I will see about having the women stay together it will be easier to protect them." she thought for a moment. "What if I have to fight it in order to protect them or anyone else? "



“Let the men fight it. It is important to keep any woman away from this thing. And you should put yourself in a place with a strong odor to conceal your scent, it will probably come when I am gone”



She frowned. "As you wish, but I don’t like it."



“Neither do I, but it has to be done. Just trust me on this one”



She nodded and followed his gaze. The land was very pretty. They sat there together in silence for a long time until the sun began to set. "I\'m going to start getting the people to cooperate."



“Please do. I will not come in to village tonight; I will be gone for a few days. You should have about two days to get the defenses up”



"Alright. I will let them know and tell the men to keep watch and no drinking. Will you be alright? "



“You should not worry about me; you should focus on yourself and the village”



"I will always worry about you."
