Siobhan chuckled softly as he closed the hood and shook her head “I am sure I can teach more than just a thing or two to your boys.” She licked her lip, before she climbed into the passenger side of the truck with a little help from him seeing how she was still weak. She watched out the window as the autumn air licked at her face, bring a soft smile to her lips letting the sunshine of mid day hit her face making her blonde hair almost look golden. As the truck came to a stop and they climbed from it she pulled her jacket on over her shoulders so her wing scars didn't show. She walked behind Dom as she took in the diner on the outside, She had only a handful of memories outside her family farm and one of them was in a diner, Her gaze was pulled from the restaurant as the older woman told her to run which only made her chuckle softly. "no need to run, not yet anyways, he has been a perfect gentleman, Sadly." She joked with the older woman and smiled as she moved with them towards the booth she looked to her "No need to be jealous, You are a very beautiful woman." She said as the women smiled to her and then stopped her from leaving "Just give me what ever he is having, and yes I know its probably half the restaurant food, trust me we need it."

As the wide eyed woman walked away she looked to Dominic and chuckled as she placed her hands on the table "Yeah I kind of figured all that out." She looked around the small diner "This place reminds me of one I got to visit few times a year when I was a kid, until I was like twelve." She said as her eyes moved to gaze over at the counter as she smiled to herself, she spoke out loud for she was still kind of weirded out that he could hear her thoughts. "The Son of the own use to be there every time I came in, I had the biggest crush on him. He even was my first kiss," Then a frown came to her lips as she moved her blue gaze back to Dominic and shrugged "That is when my parents decided we were not aloud to leave the farm again." She sighed softly and looked down to her hands as she let her mind wondering about that boy she hadn't seen him in 9 years and he was a fond memory for her. "It was like my parents over reacted for some reason but I guess I understand now." She looked to her shoulder as if to gesture to her wing scars. "Sometimes I wonder if my parents were my real parents, I mean I stuck out like a sore thumb among them, My mother was Raven hair, brown eyes. My father the same and my brother and yet I am blonde hair and blue eyed, though I didn't know my mother was raven haired until the last year because she dyed her hair blonde." 

She sighed and looked from her shoulder back to him "I really need to just stop talking," She chuckled lightly "But I am just trying to understand my life and I would rather do that out loud rather then in my..." 'Head' she finished the thought as She looked up as Patty sat the coffee cups in front of them and she smiled softly "Thank you," She said as she ran her finger along the rim of the cup before she raised it to her lips and took a long sip from it. "So is it just the food that brings you back?" She asked as she sat the mug down and let her gaze drift around the diner as it wasn't full. Her eyes fell on a guy sitting behind Dom in a few booths back and she blinked a few times why did he look so familiar to her, As the man looked up to her he smiled and then it made her look back to Dom.

The man she had been staring at was now standing there at the edge of the table "I am sorry but you remind me of someone." He says as he looked from Dominic back to Siobhan "Your name doesn't happen to be Siobhan does it?"

She was taken back by this and blinked a few times "I'm sorry?" She said as she felt her heart rate pick up "How do you know my name."

"I knew it," He smiled wide and then looked her over "It's me Jack." He said. "You know we kind of made out we were twelve."

"Jack?" She looked him over he had grown up for real.  She stood up and gave out a soft school girl chuckle as they hugged each other slightly longer then was need. "How have you been?" She asked as she pulled back slightly. 

"Ah you know grew up went to school and still end up taking over the diner, though I opened a few more along the way, Like this one." He smiled as he kept his hand on her arm his thumb rubbing her skin softly. "It is so good to see you, And My god have you gotten even more beautiful." He said.

A blush came across her cheek as she looked down "Oh stop, I mean look at you, wow you really grow into your ears" She giggled again as she felt her heart beat pounded in her chest. Seeing the food coming she stepped out of the way with Jack, 

"Listen I don't want to mess up your date or anything." He nodded towards Dominic.

"It is not a date." She replied quickly 

"Well then we should get together some time." He said as he moved with his hand still on her arm back over to his table and wrote his number on a napkin and leaned down kissing her cheek "God you have no idea how many times I have thought of you Siobhan when your parents pulled you out that day I knew I would never see you again and that broke my heart." He said and pulled her back into a hug. "Please shoot me a text or call me some time, If there is a chance we can maybe pick up from that kiss." He chuckled softly with a wink.

Siobhan took the number folding it placing it in her pocket "I will for sure, and we shall see about that kiss." She said as she took a step back. "It was great seeing you Jack." She said as she walked back to the booth with Dom and slide back in and she picked up her fork watching Jack leave the diner as she looked back down to her food and blushed harder. She took a bite out of the food on her plate before looking back up at him staring at her. She could feel him wanting to tell her she was being naive, that someone from her past just showing up in the middle of all the craziness going on. She was naive because she had hope that Jack was real, but understood that the fact him just showed up after she spoke of the events from her past was in fact strange. "Don't." she muttered as she took another bite.

 

As Siobhan spoke about her past, Dom couldn't help but admire her innocence, but at the same time wonder how she could make it in such a rough place that the supernatural world could be. It was clear she already had the disadvantage of someone wanting to hurt her with these conjured beasts that came to kill her and her family. He watched as the blue of her eyes became even brighter while recalling her first love. It was nice to see her whole face light up after the night they had had. When Siobhan spoke about the legitimacy of her parents, his interest peaked. That was certainly new information. This mystery surrounding her life was getting more and more concerning.

"Best pancakes in Colorado, actually," Dom responded to her question about why he frequented the diner so much, but it was clear her attention was being drawn away. As he turned to see what she was looking at, a young man was approaching their table. With all that had happened to them, he immediately became on guard. When the stranger then said her name, Dominic was about to stand, but as the recognition passed over Siobhan's face, he sat back in the booth. It wasn't long before she was giving him a hug. 

This was Jack? He looked like the typical American boy next door. Pretty much the complete opposite of himself. When he called her beautiful, Dominic couldn't help but roll his eyes and sigh loudly. It was at that moment Patty came by with their food and Siobhan quickly shot down the idea of them being on a date to Jack. It was clear she still had feelings for him and Dom wasn't sure how he actually felt about that. More of those mixed emotions began creeping through his chest as it became tighter and all he could see was him punching Jack in the face. 

As their conversation continued and ended with him handing her his number, Dominic glared at her from across the table. This wasn't about jealousy, but now more about her safety. After she shut him down, he crossed his arms over his chest. "Are you serious? Don't you think that's a little coincidental; Him showing up here?" His appetite had now vanished. "Does he even know you're a Nephilim?" Dominic questioned, keeping his voice low. "Does he know the risks?" The question came out harsher than he had meant it. It sounded more like he was calling her a risk because of what was happening in her life with having no control of her powers, including him being severely sickened and close to death. As if there was no chance of her ever being happy with anyone. Sounded familiar... Like he had feared, Siobhan gave him an angry look and got up from the table, heading for the exit. "Shit."

He quickly got up from the table and went after her. Patty already had her hands on her hips as she was watching the scene unfold like an angry mother. "Give me a break, Patty." Dominic pushed the door of the diner open and jogged after Siobhan. "Wait. Siobhan, wait." He grabbed her by the arm and pulled her towards him, letting his hand rest at her wrist. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to come out like that. I just want you to be safe." He looked passed her and sighed. "I'm just trying to be wary of the people who seem to be coming around you. Everyone makes me suspicious until we can figure out what's going on."

Siobhan listen to Dom as he began to assault her with his questions. "No one knows what I am besides you and Isaac." She said as she looked down and when the last question came out she felt all color leave her, She was a risk. That is what he thought of her, as a risk. She swallowed hard, Giving him a stern look she stood up and rushed out of the diner. She ran as fast as she could and yet she was not fast enough to get away from him. He was right after all why should she be happy ever. She felt the tears coming to her eyes, it seem to be her reaction to everything lately.  She should have stayed away from everyone. Her mind running through the thoughts of how she should just be alone. When he caught her she cursed herself and her slow human speed. As he pulled her back to look at him she turned her face away from him letting her mind go blank trying not to think "In the passed two days, I have come to learn you don't tend to say things you don't mean." She said and looked back to him the hurt clear on her face "So you must think I am a risk and you are right." She pulled her wrist away "I have almost killed you, and for that I am deeply sorry." She said and looked away from him "But I think it is best that we part ways here, before I really do get you killed." She said and took a step closer to him and leaned up on her tipy toes and pressed her nose to his cheek and then kissed it along with the edge of his mouth softly before backing up "Goodbye Wolfy." She muttered softly making sure it was just them before she took a step off the bridge and fell towards the water her wings unfurrow and she took off towards his home to get her things before he returned.

She flapped her wings and flew as fast as she could despite the still damage wing, in no time she reached the cabin that was his, she was sure he was going to make his way to his home. She rushed in picking up the satellite phone. She rushed into his room picking up her bag and tossing it over her shoulder and walked by the door picking up her bow and arrow. She paused looking over the place that had made her feel like she was home for once and sighed as she closed the door and flapped her wings. When Jack appeared in front of her she was taken back "Jack?" she asked as she took a step towards him and then back "What are you."

"Well I am Jack," He smiled darkly as his eyes flashed black "With a kick." He was there grabbing a hold of her wrist and tighten his grip causing her to let out a scream "I have been looking for you, Daughter of Michael." He chuckled darkly and then as he yanked her closer she dropped the satellite phone on the ground and she closed her eyes letting her mind reach out as it did she screamed in Dom's head "DOM!" before Jack touched her head making her fall asleep., yanking the bag from her shoulders ripping her shirt away, Jack picked her up in his arms as he saw the truck pulling up he vanished. Once inside of a dark dungeon he smirked to the unconsciousness Siobhan "Ah such a full, so naive all you want is someone to love you. That will be your down fall." He said as he changed her hands, wings, legs, and neck to the chains waiting for her. "Daughter of an Archangel. Your wings alone are worth more then you know." He chuckled lightly as he ran his fingers down her cheek "To bad you would make a pretty wife., Maybe I shall have my way with you before I sell you." He walked out of the dungeon which had poor lighting.

When she woke up she gasped and looked around as her head pounded she yanked on the chains and looked around she felt weak as if the chains were laced with something. "Hello?" She called out in the echo and when she tried to flap her wings she almost screamed as the cages around them kept them from working, she backed up against the wall and pulled her knees up to her chest "Dom? Dom? Can you hear me? Don't come after me, you hear me don't you dare come after me." 

At this time the satellite phone was ringing on the ground where Siobhan things laid in the grass as Isaac was calling.

Dominic felt pretty low as she said she wanted to leave. A wave of guilt passed over him and he was sure he may have ruined any chance of speaking to her again. When she kissed his cheek, he tried to reach out for her, but realized Siobhan was nearing the cliffside and suddenly jumped. As he watched her plummeting to the ground, her wings released and she went swiftly out of sight while he stood their calling her name. After shouting a few expletives, Dominic quickly got in the truck. If she was going to leave, she was probably heading back to his house to grab her things first. That would be his only chance to make it right. He sped down the road, completely forgetting to pay the bill.

A sudden and searing pain lashed across the inside of his head which made him grab at it in agony. He quickly had to correct the wheel, as he nearly ran off the road and into oncoming traffic. It was Siobhan and she was calling out for help. "No. No.. no..nono..." Dominic put his foot down on the gas pedal further and sped down the highway. When he turned up the dirt path to his house, Dom jumped out of the truck after slamming it into park. He could see her belongings scattered on the grass and the marks in the ground where she had struggled with someone. It didn't take long before he picked up Jack's scent. The familiar ripple down his back was itching at him to change into his wolf form as the rage started to fill him up. This bastard took her and he was going to die for it. Thee end.

Siobhan's voice suddenly flashed in his head again, pleading for him to not come for her. "If you honestly think I'm not coming, you haven't been paying attention." He took a deep breath and pushed open the door to his house, grabbing the key to one his motorcycles that hung on the wall along with the shotgun he kept nearby it. He was going to need something a lot faster. His mind had been so focused to the task, he didn't realize the phone on the ground was ringing. Putting it up to his ear, Dom recognized the voice on the other end. "She's been taken. I'm trying to find her now. Track this phone, I can't wait." The bike was next to the house and he quickly mounted it, giving it a kick-start. It roared to life and he closed his eyes to concentrate on her. 

"Where are you?" She didn't know, but that didn't really matter. If they were still able to communicate, it meant she wasn't that far away. There had to be another way of tracking her and he thought he might know. Seeing as their powers had been changed with the addition of the ichor in their blood, Dominic decided to put something to the test. If they could keep in contact, he had a feeling he would be able to track her down; her thoughts and words being like a beacon. He just hoped he would make it in time before Jack did anything to hurt her.

He spun the bike around and flew down the path and out onto the highway, following his gut from the last time she had spoken to him. "Talk to me. Say anything." But there was nothing. Siobhan was silent. Dominic let out a frustrated yell as he weaved around the tight turns on the road. "If you don't answer me..." He couldn't exactly threaten her, but it was coming out that way because of his fear in not making it to her before something terrible happened. "Please, Spidey. Don't do this. I didn't mean what I said before. It all came out wrong cause I was acting like an idiot. You're not a burden to me or anyone. You're a gift, honestly. This world is better because of you and your kindness and selflessness." Dominic pushed the bike around another turn, but knew he was starting to feel lost with no help coming her way. "Come on, Wáptasyi. Say something..." 

(I added a little more,)

Isaac was frantic as he called the phone many times until finally Dom answered but nothing came out of him when Dom said she was taken. He was out of his home tracker in hand as he was flying. In no time he was flying over Dominic following him as he searched for her. His heart sank at the thought of  Siobhan being hurt. He should have taken her back home with him, but he knew she was stubborn and would have just run off back to the woods

Siobhan knew deep down that he was going to try and come after her and she couldn't risk it. No she can't let him get hurt all over again for her. She would have to save herself. She could hear him yelling in her head still she entered a zen state as she began to yank on the chains as hard as she could, still week from then ichor that had almost killed her. but the harder she yanked she felt the flesh on her wrist ripping "Shit." she muttered and bit hard on her lip. She paused as she heard him talk to her saying he was acting like an idiot. She looked down and heard the words in her head as she, then her nose crinkled "What the hell is a Wáptasyi ?" She asked in his head, Just as the door opened once again "Jack." She said as she looked to him and he walked into the room.

"You know, my mother and father were both demons, outcast." He said as he walked closer to her and ran a knife along her cheek "Then in walks this pretty little angel child, that I was told to get close to, make her fall in love with me, then when she activated her powers we were going to take you away from your adoptive parents." He said as he ran the knife between the valley of her breast. "Yet your parents figured it out and took you off the grid completely moving around, it was hard to pin them down, pin you down. I thought for sure your wolf would have sniffed me out, I mean really that guy? Do you think he will ever want someone as helpless as you?" He said as he pushed her against the wall the knife stabbed into her side causing her to yelp out as it was laced with the ichor. "So first was to get your parents out of the way, and that pain in the ass brother of yours. Then to get you all alone." He said as he took the knife out of her side and ran it along the seem of her pants cutting it. "Then I couldn't help myself I need to torment you, make you sick so when I finally got my hands on you I could do what I wish to you before selling you off. My parents had no idea the effect your kisses had on me. For weeks I was love sick it was as if your kisses were a drug." He said as he took the knife and stabbed it into her wing pinning her to the wall "I like them helpless, and pure." He said as he ripped aside the last of the fabric.

Siobhan mind had opened and it allowed Dom to see what was happening, every word he spoke and every action he had done getting her completely naked, she said in his head "Help me Wolfy. I will not let you watch this." Her mind closed off once again as she closed her eyes tight feeling the man press her into the wall unable to move her limps he had her where he wanted her. His lips pressed to hers, as his hands wondered her body his tongue forced its way into her mouth and she groaned as her mind raced with how to get him away from her. She tried flapping her wings but the right one was pinned with a knife and the other was her wounded one. Then she remembered Dominica said she could hurt others with her mind she tried to do that but among the panic she couldn't function. She felt him force himself between her legs and she whimpered out. She knew the best thing to do was to get out of her head so that is what she did, She let her mind drift to Dominic and the first night they shared his bed, how her hand brushed against his, how she wanted to just hold his hand, How she had an innocent crush on him, The way she looked at him when he had no clue her blue hues were on him, How he was giving her the strength to be stronger. All of this opened the channel back to him flooding his mind with the good thoughts she had for him, how she cared for him making her location like a bright beacon for him to see, making there connection stronger. 

Dominic was seeing and hearing nothing, but he let the bike continue to guide him forward with hopes she would come around. Suddenly he was flooded with the visions of things that had happened between the two along with the feelings that were behind them. His heart began to race as the adrenaline surged through his veins and trying to push the bike to the limit. He could feel exactly where she was and knew something awful was going to happen. "I got her!" Dominic called out so Isaac he was in the loop. 'I got her...' 

When they neared the edge of town, he knew instantly where they were. It was an old abandoned farm that had an empty silo on the grounds. It was a good place to bring someone that you intended on keeping from the rest of the world. Dominic gunned it down the road of the forgotten property and hoped that the plan he and Isaac had thought up would work. He jumped off the bike, letting it fall to the ground in the tall, unkempt grass, while pulling the shotgun from his back and stalked to the front of the house. His boot made contact with the door, kicking it open and sweeping the gun around the room. There was no movement. As Isaac came behind him, he was mumbling something about him not being very subtle, but Dominic put a hand up to indicate for him to be quiet. Closing his eyes, he concentrated and strained to hear any type of movement with his extrasensory abilities. Her scent didn't seem to be in the house, so he pushed passed Isaac and went back outside.

Dominic raised the shotgun and walked around the side of the house where he instantly picked up her scent. She was in the silo. He darted for the abandoned structure and followed where she was leading him. Their footsteps echoed as their feet pounded against the ground, but he wasn't trying to keep quiet any longer. This was going to be guns blazing and fists swinging. They turned a corner and could hear her soft cries. When he came upon the scene, Dominic had not seen red like he did since his mother died. Siobhan was lying naked on the dirty floor with her wings badly damaged. He lowered the gun and started for her, but then a sudden weight fell on top of him. It was Jack and he had taken him by surprise, no doubt having heard them coming. They landed on the floor with Jack landing on top of him, bringing a knife down to his throat. Dominic caught his wrist and pushed it back and away before getting enough leverage to push him off. They both quickly got to their feet and stared each other down. 

The first thing he noticed about Jack was that he was not the same person that was in the diner. There was something supernatural about him now. Something supernatural and dark. The young man's eyes went black and ichor began to pour from his eyes as he grinned menacingly. He was the one causing those creatures to come for Siobhan and her family. Dominic cracked his neck and instinctively growled. His eyes went to the dropped shotgun and the two watched each other, waiting for the first one to move. Dominic went to reach for the gun and Jack didn't wait to throw the dagger towards him. The blade hit him in the shoulder, but he ignored the pain and picked up the weapon, firing at Jack. The shot went directly into his chest, but Jack scoffed and touched the ichor that poured from the wounds. It didn't have much effect on him at all. 'Shit. Plan B.'

Dominic flicked a glance Isaac's way to indicate they were now going to try and get their plan into motion. He nodded his head towards Siobhan and Isaac nodded in return, running over to tend to her. The Therian fired the gun again and blasted more holes into Jack's chest, but the supernatural continued forward and swung at Dominic causing him to fly against the wall and slump to the floor. Dom shook his head out, but felt a firm hand around his throat, lifting him from the ground and keeping him pinned against the wall. This thing that Jack was, was unnaturally strong, even for a supernatural. Dominic grabbed onto his assailant's arm and tried to pull him off, but there was no budging him. It didn't matter. This was part of the plan, even if Dominic had to suffer for it. Jack dug his nails deep into the flesh of his neck and he could feel that he was releasing the ichor which began running through his bloodstream. If this was going to be like what happened before, Dominic didn't have much time before he would be doubling over in pain and dying on the floor of this silo.

A syringe went flying through the air towards Dominic and he quickly caught it. He jammed the needle into the side of Jack's neck and released the contents inside. It was filled with Siobhan's pure blood. Jack let out a scream of pain as ichor spurted from his mouth and down the front of his shirt. Dom took the open opportunity and pulled the dagger from his own shoulder, stabbing Jack in the arm that held his throat, and kicking out at his chest which released his grip. He picked up the shotgun again and shot Jack in the face which immediately dropped him to the ground. Looking over to Isaac again, the man tossed him another syringe. He stepped over Jack's body and jammed the needle into the supernatural's chest before pumping another shell into him. 

The weapon and syringe slipped from his hands and Dominic went down on all fours. His vision was starting to waiver, but he could see Siobhan was still alive and Isaac was helping her get loose from the chains she seemed to be being held with. The pain was becoming excruciating. This was more potent power than last time being that it was coming from the source. He fell over onto his back and stared up at the ceiling which was now spinning. The violent coughing came next and he began hacking up the ichor, choking on the toxins. He knew he needed to turn over on his side so he wouldn't drown in the liquid, but everything was starting to go numb. And black. The world was going black. But he was ok... he was ok with dying if it meant he had saved Siobhan. He'd take that death any day. 

Isaac eyes scanned the area as he flew above Dominic sure that he was lost at the point wishing he had planted a tracker into Siobhan wing like he wanted to but then hearing Dominic yell out below him made him relieved they had a connection at that point. No matter his feelings, Siobhan safety came before any of it. When they arrived to the farm He landed behind him following behind his steps and looked around the broken farm and  muttered under his breath "Warn them we are coming are you trying to get yourself killed." When Dominic push passed him he could see that he was determined to get Siobhan out of here alive, he brought plenty of the antitoxin mixed with her blood as Dominic had requested of him, making sure to over do it, thankfully Siobhan donated her blood to him often so it wasn't hard to make the batches. As Dominic made his way to the silo he gulped hard hearing Siobhan crying out made his skin crawl. He was right behind  him as he broke down the door.

Siobhan tried to focus on the good that had happen before this moment, but her innocents was snatched from her and she pulled back into the moment her body pressed against the wall, becoming his play thing, she sobbed out until Jack pulled away from her, her body slid to the ground, Looking around for Jack as she tried to yank her arm free once again but failed. "Come on." She sobbed softly, When she heard the door be kicked in she looked to them and watched the murderous look in Dominic eyes, She couldn't get a word out before Jack body landed on Dominic and the fight began. She didn't say anything she was frozen watching Dominic fight with this demon, Isaac was there covering her body with his trench coat and yet all she could do was watch in horror as Dominic took hit after hit the ichor enter his system knowing he wouldn't have long.

As Jacks lifeless body lay there, Isaac undoing the collar from around her neck finally her only thing still trapped where her wings, and that didn't stop her from getting to Dominic her hands on his chest as she felt his heart slowing. "You moron, I told you not to come after me." She said as she snatched the bag Isaac had slung around him, "Idiotic, Moronic, Stupid wolf." She said as took the syringe filled with the anti toxic and stabbed it into his chest pushing the plunger down letting his heart fill with it antitoxin mixed with her blood before she rolled him on his side trying to clearing his air way. Pulling him back on his back. The cages fell from her wings as Isaac got them free. She felt for a pulse and felt a faint one, but he was still choking on the ichor. "I am going to do something Isaac once I do this you will need to pump me full of the anti toxin." She said opening his mouth closing her eyes, placing her mouth over his and used her angelic powers to pull all of the ichor from his system into her body, as the ichor was created to kill her it was far more attracted to her then him.. Pulling back allowing him to breath once again. She stood up and pulled the trench coat on her body tying it as she looked to Isaac just as he plunged her full of the anti toxin and she turned  away from them and walked over tossing her guts up before she muttered, knowing he made a more potent batch for her. "We need to get him home."

"What about you are you okay?" He walked to her picking her up off the ground holding her face in his hands whipping the Ichor from her lips and looked into her blue hues, they didn't shine as bright as they once had. 

"No, I am not." She said as she turned away from him feeling his hand on her shoulder, her gaze was focused upon Dominic, she walked over picking up Dominic off the ground along with his shot gun and wrapped her arm around his waist. Isaac got under the other arm and they moved out of the silo. She took in the sun against her face and looked up to the wolf who would need to rest for god knows how long. She took a step back out from under Dominic arm letting Isaac hold his full weight "You are going to have to carry him back to his home, I can barely carry myself." She said and then flapped her wings, her body was numb to the pain now. "Then come back for his bike." she muttered as she looked over to it tossed over in the grass. It took longer then it should have to get back to his home but once there and he was laying in bed she looked to him. opening his eyes making sure they were clear  it seemed her sucking the ichor out of his system worked.  She took a wet cloth and cleaned his face of the black goo and then removed his shirt, and shoes. Then covered him, She took hold of his large hand with in both of her tiny ones and frowned softly "You better pull through or I will never forgive myself." Once Isaac was back Siobhan found her way out of his home to his work shop.

-A week later-

Dominic still had yet to wake up and Siobhan had lost herself working on one of the engines in his work shop, she was pushing her pain aside, only allowing herself to be numb, with the help of his rum. Isaac had stayed to make sure Dominic was okay keeping an eye on him and Siobhan, his heart broke for them both. Dominic life hung in the balance, and Siobhan had lost herself, He noticed the signs of her retreating into herself, She was going to close her heart off for good if something wasn't done. She had not slept at all since they got back, nor had she eaten, only drinking and refusing to leave the work shop no matter how much Isaac begged her to. Isaac sighed as he made coffee once again and took a long sip from the mug running his hand over his face as he walked over to the bed room, seeing that Dominic was no longer in the bed he took a step in. "Dominic? Where are you?" He called out.

Siobhan sat in the work stop at the bench as she cleaned the parts of the engine before she began to put it back together closing her eyes taking a deep breath. "Dominic please wake up soon." She said in her head "I miss you." She was covered in grease and sighed to herself as she began to put together the engine as she kept her mine busy so she didn't think of that day, of what happened to her. Her stomach turned at the thought of ever loving Jack, making the choice to be alone, she no longer wanted to be hurt by the unknown. Looking at her you could see her eyes didn't shine as bright, her smile had faded, and that young naive girl was gone. She reached for the bottle of booze that sat there her hand shaking as she pulled it back and hugged it to her chest, She felt the tears dare to flood over before she reached for the bottle again downing a good part of it, setting it aside as she returned her gaze to the parts.

It was bright. Brighter than normal. His eyes were trying to adjust, but it wasn't working. Putting an arm over his face, Dominic shuffled along the grass of his property and could feel how weak his muscles had become from being in bed. He wasn't even sure how long he'd been out for. The one thing that did feel right was the cool autumn air on his face. As he reached the stream in front of his house, Dominic bent down and splashed some water on his face. It was then he caught his reflection and saw his eyes were in their Lycan form; the ghostly white of a Therian who had no pack. His body was definitely reacting funny to the poison that had gone through him. 

There was a metal on metal sound that drew his attention away from the water. It was then his senses had suddenly come back times ten and he was hearing, seeing, and smelling every little thing the woods had to offer. Birds chirping, the wind blowing, the stream flowing, the earthly smell of the moss near his feet, and then the familiar scent of a Nephilim he favored. Putting a hand to his head as the extrasensory overload continued, and went around the side of his house where he kept a few of the cars and bikes he worked on. It was there he saw Siobhan bent over one of the machines.

Dom hurried his steps a bit to reach her and quickly pulled her into his arms without any words said between them. He held her there for a minute before letting go and having all the memories of what had happened to them wash over him. There was a sudden need to take a step back and put some space between them. Did she even want to be touched after what happened? He couldn't even be sure what it was that did happen. Everything was going so fast and all he wanted was to murder Jack. It was all he saw in front of him. As he looked Siobhan over, he could see the effect of what had occurred taking a toll on the Nephilim. It was then he noticed the bottle of whiskey. He took it from under the hood and gave her a hard look as if he wasn't the most hypocritical person for doing so. It was fine for him, but not for her. Never for her. Putting the bottle down on his workbench, Dominic's gaze fell on hers which seemed dulled from their usual brightness. There were a lot of things he wanted to say to her, but couldn't find any words that were right. All he really wanted to do was hold her until she cried herself back to normal. "The engine needs work. Haven't had a chance to get her running again." The words came out scratchy and low as he hadn't used his voice in what had to have been days. It was the only thing he could think to say.

The sound of hurried foot steps made her tense up, When his arms wrapped around her she was tense also until she realized it was Dominic. She closed her eyes and arm arms rested on his as he hugged her close to him, The moment of his embraced ended to quick but when she turned to face him her blue gaze looking to him, How long was he just going to stare at her, it didn't matter he was alive and awake, when he took the almost empty bottle of whiskey from under the hood giving her a hard look, she just rolled her eyes at him and turned back to the engine. She placed the last screw in and nodded "Been working on it all week." She said as she yanked the cord and it started up. "hope you don't mind." She said as she took a step away picking up the rag she had been whipping her hands on and looked back to him over her shoulder "I owe you a few bottles." She said as she picked up the bottle and tossed the last of it back, before her hands rested on the bottle staring at it.

"She has been drinking three bottles a day since you have been out of it." Isaac said as he leaned in the door frame, looking at her with a hard look, before casting his gaze to Dominic "How are you feeling."

"Don't judge me Isaac." She said looking to him, "Don't forget it wasn't long ago I was cleaning up your lab after a rage night of yours." She mumbled before walking over cutting the engine off. Her back stayed to both of them, looking at them made her feel and all she wanted to be was numb. "You should go home Isaac, I am not returning to the city." She said before tossing the bottle in the trash as it clinked with the others. "And before you say anything about how I can't say here with you Dominic, I wasn't planning on doing that either." She said as she looked to them. "I need to get far away from everyone, especially ones I care for." Her gaze was on him when she said that. "I can't have you getting yourself almost killed once again over me." She said as she patted the engine. "I need to make sure you were going to wake up before I left." She cleared her throat and moved towards the door way "Move Isaac." She said.

Isaac stood in the door frame "I will do no such thing. I am not letting you run away." He looked between her and Dominic, Before he could say another word he was on the ground as if he just passed out and Siobhan stepped over him. "Tell him good bye for me when he wakes up." She looked back to him "Good bye Wolfy," She muttered as she let her wings unfurrow they were no longer pure white, they were gray and feathers falling from them, she had lost her way and it was showing in her body.

Dominic remained quiet as Siobhan made her intentions clear, raising an eyebrow as the sound of the bottles hit each other. She was hurting. Badly. He watched as Isaac went into a heap on the floor and was more than a little surprised. She had gotten stronger with her powers and wondered if it had anything to do with the trauma she'd been through. Dominic didn't even think Nephilims could influence each other in that way. But then again, she was special.

He stepped over Isaac and grabbed Siobhan's hand, pulling her closer to him. "Stop." Dominic sighed and looked at the ground before directly into her eyes. "You know I'm just going to look for you and I won't stop till I find you. You can put me down like Isaac, but I will wake up eventually and I will come for you." He let his thumb trace her jawline lightly before dropping it and the hand that held hers. "I will always come for you. You'll have to kill me if you want me to stop."

Dominic put a hand through his messy hair and leaned against the shed. "You can stay here... till you're ready to do things on your own, which is not yet. You won't convince me otherwise." He wasn't sure if this was the best idea, but it was better than her being alone. That he was sure of. "We're good at saving each other. Don't lose hope now." That was his job. She was too good of a person to not be hopeful and it was her that made him want to be less miserable.

Siobhan felt his hand in hers as he pulled her back against his massive body, She slumped into him and felt all the strength she had in her choice to leave felt wrong all of a sudden. As he pulled her back looking into her pale blue eyes her hand stayed in his. "why?" She asked with a shaky voice "Why do you care so much? I have almost gotten you killed twice...Not once twice." She let her eyes flutter closed as his thumb traced her jawline like a feather causing it to tremble. Swallowing hard she knew he was speaking the truth he would hunt her down if she ran, and with the connection they had he would find her. She feared because of her pure blood she had linked him to herself forever, and she knew he hated the idea of being linked to anyone. She stood there mulling over, him asking her to stay and she nodded once "Fine." She said as she cleared her throat once again, speaking louder as she pulled her hands from his "Only if Isaac leaves once he is awake. I am tired of him judging me." She said and looked up to him "Only if you agree not to judge me..." She said as she moved passed him and walked inside his home for the first time in a week. 

She walked into his room to his shower, She washed her body but then she sat in the floor of the shower holding her knees to her chest as the warm water feel over her naked body, She stayed there for over an hour until the water ran ice cold past that point until she was shivering to keep warm. She stayed there until she didn't sense Isaac anymore. She climbed out as she walked into his room pulling on one of his large clean shirts Isaac seem to have done all of the guys laundry for him, she dried her hair and walked out to his living room seeing a fire roaring as night had over taken the light outside of his home. She moved closer to the fire staring at the flames as she reached her hand out letting the flames lick her finger tips gently before pulling her hand back to cross her arms together loosely.  She watched the flames eat at the log before she placed another and turned her head to look to him, It was good to see him awake that was for sure, even if he was looking at her like a wounded bird. "you now you have the perfect chance to get rid of me, why didn't you take it?" She asked as she crossed the room sitting on the couch next to him taking the bottle from his hand and took a long sip from it, before handing it back to him and pulled her knees to her chest as she watched the flames. 

They passed the bottle back and forth, she knew he didn't want to give it to her, mainly because she knew he hated seeing her so hurt, he thought she was better then this kind of thing, When the bottle was empty she sat there for a long time before she spoke. "You know why he wanted me? Why it was so important for him to make me weak, to ra-ape me?" Her voice broke over the word, She kept her gaze on the flames as a tear rolled down her cheek. "He said I was the daughter of the Archangel Michael." She said softly as if saying his name would make him appear. "My parents were not my parents." She said and then leaned back letting her feet fall to the floor. "He said I am the closest thing to a pure angel that could walk on this planet and I hand no idea how powerful I really could be." She laughed once "and yet I have never felt weaker." She shook her head and then her head slumped over allowing the emotions to flow over her for the first time since the events happened and she began to sob, covering her eyes with her hands burying her face into her hands and lap "Why does it hurt so much?" She sobbed out. "I can still feel him touching every inch of me no matter how numb I try and make myself." She kept hold of her face, "I don't want to feel like this anymore Dominic, I don't want to." She caught her breath trying to stop the crying, but a week of numbing herself had taken over. "I have never felt more ugly, and worthless then I do now." 

Things had been quiet in the time that Isaac had been essentially sent away. He was sure to give Dominic more than one reminder to behave and take good care of her to which he rolled his eyes at him every time after promising that he would. Siobhan immediately retreated into herself and disappeared into his bedroom when her mentor left. He was left standing in the living room when he heard the shower come on shortly after. It was his favorite place to think and he imagined it was probably the best place for her to be as emotional as she wanted. 

He walked over to the couch and placed some of his extra blankets down while removing a few of the pillows. This was going to be his bed for an extended period of time no matter how much she protested. After starting a fire, Dominic went back into the kitchen and stirred the pot of beef stew that had been sitting on the stove to simmer. If there was one thing his mother could be proud of since her absence from this world, it would be that he got her recipe right. He wasn't one for cooking, but there were a couple of dishes he could claim with pride. However, he wasn't exactly sure if Siobhan would be up for eating. He certainly had no appetite. The only thing that was in his stomach was alcohol. And a lot of it. Being a supernatural meant you had to drink excessive amounts to feel any sort of buzz due to their accelerated healing rates. He really just wanted to be numb from everything. 

Collapsing onto the couch with a bottle of whiskey, his head turned when he heard the click of his door opening. Siobhan walked out of the bedroom and went over to sit by the fire. They remained quiet for a long time and just watched the fireplace which let their thoughts wander. He wondered if this was going to be how it was between them from now on. They had both been through a lot and nearly dying a couple of times could make people do things they wouldn't normally. Time would tell in their behavior he supposed. After some time, she picked her gaze up from the flames to ask a question he deemed absurd. "I'm never going to try and get rid of you, Parker. You aren't a burden to pass on. I'm not really sure if I'm the one to help, but I know you don't want Isaac around and I'm not letting you be alone."

They fell into silence once more and he let her take the bottle from him. If tonight needed to be a night for her to get completely trashed, so be it. He would be there to help her back from it. Sometimes that's what people just needed to do. The best part would at least be getting a good night's sleep from it. He tossed the bottle to the other chair and continued the quiet time between them. He wished he knew how to fix everything, but he didn't. He couldn't fix himself most of the time. Her voice interrupted his thoughts, but he kept his eyes on the flames. When she mentioned that Jack had raped her, he clenched his fists in anger and began to grit his teeth. He hadn't really known for sure what happened in that room until now. The rippling in his back started and with the amount of alcohol in his system, Dominic wasn't too sure if he would be able to control himself from changing. He was suddenly wishing he hadn't killed that son of a bitch so quickly...

When Siobhan began crying, he instantly calmed down. It was about her needs and not his. Dominic still wasn't sure how she would feel about being touched, but he did it anyway. He turned her knees towards the back of the couch and pulled her into his chest, wrapping his arms around her. "You aren't ugly or worthless, Wáptasyi. That asshole was just trying to make you feel that way because that was what he was made to do. He preyed on someone that was beautiful and full of light because it was something he could never be." Dom wasn't very good at words. Even less so when he'd been drinking. He was definitely more of a physical being. That he was very good at, so holding her would have to do. He pushed back the hair from her face as she continued sobbing and wondered what it would take to get that light back as his gaze fell over to the flames again.
