Persephone smiled.
"Xander feels he owes Serge. He always said that no one would ever do that for him like Serge did. I hope Xander doesn't hurt himself in owing Serge."

"Wow. I hope he doesn't also" Jay said, slightly stiffening

Drake meanwhile had been in serious heat with the beast attempting to slice it to ribbons with his chainsaw and try to continue towards north where he thought the directions were.

OOC: Popfizz, that is game trolling. The test is supposed to be hard. You can't just slice up the Boss.

Serge was tossed aside and about to be ripped open when Xander sprung in front, Ragin's claws tearing into Xander's side. Xander crumples and lies still.

"Xander!" Serge cries out.

Drake tried hard not to be a rag doll/chew toy and beaten it in self-defense. The monster chomped Drake chainsaw in pieces, grabbed Drake with it's tail, and bashed Drake multiple times before he got free.

Jay immediately sensed something was wrong. "Someone's hurt. I can feel it." Jay said, her voice filled with worry. "And it's not just the duck"

The beast threw Drake across the area. Drake jumped at him and attacked, it was painful for both him and it but... no there's no "but" after that. After two minutes, Nega spitted out what looked like a tooth. HIS tooth. He clutched it in agony and jumped head on at it.

Ragin roars.

Serge lifts Xander up.
"Drake! Come on! Getting out of here is required!" He yells.

Xander's eyes flutter.

Jay immediately stiffened, worried Xander was hurt.

Persephone leapt down. She suddenly stiffened.
"Jay. Serge is crying."

"Xander's hurt" Jay said, morphing to wolf form.

Drake snapped one of the beast arms and ran with them fast.

Persephone picked up Jay and leapt into the air, surprisingly strong. She flew to the top of the mountain.

Serge was kneeling beside Xander, stroking his copper fur, tears running down his face.
"Xander." He choked. He spotted Jay and Persephone and waved them over quickly.

Persephone landed beside Serge and gasped. Xander's side had been slit open by powerful claws.

"What happened here, what's with him?"

Jay broke down in sobs. Her fur became drenched with tears as she lay her muzzle near Xander.

"****..." Nega said sorrowfully

Xander felt Jay beside him. He was trembling and unable to move.
"J-j-jay." He barely managed to say the word.

Nega, for once, couldn't say anything. So he just stood silently.

Jay moved her muzzle closer to Xander "Xander.." She whimpered

"I lied to you. I told you not to worry about me I'd be okay but here I am. I'm sorry Jay." Xander said, choking on every word.

"Xander, it's fine. You had no idea this would happen." Jay said in between tears as she lay her muzzle on Xander.

Nega just felt actual remorse for someone else. It felt horrible knowing he was once someone like this.

Serge had his head in his hands.
"This is my fault. If I hadn't have saved you when we were ten, you wouldn't have even thought about repaying me." He cried, tears running down his face.

Xander looked at Serge.
"Serge... I would have killed myself when we were ten had you not protected me." He coughed.

Persephone laid her small hand on Xander's torn flank.
"Save your breath Xander."

Nega took a shining. "Well you've made it here so far, I'll help you, We'll all help." He picked up Xander's body. "We're going to get out together. No one dies."

Jay closed her eyes, worried about Xander

"Come on, let's go. But first I'll need directions."

Jay growled at Nega. She was angry. "Put him down, now." She said, as images of Jake flashed through her mind

Xander struggled for breath. He was trying to breath, but he was obviously having trouble.

"If anyone is giving him mouth-to-mouth so he can breath, you are welcome to, Jay." Persephone says.

Nega sat him down. "Sorry..."

Jay morphed to human form, so she could give mouth-to-mouth.

Drake stood by silently with his hat down.

Xander whimpered softly.

Stay alive for Jay's sake thought Drake. Stay alive.

"You're not gonna die. Jay wouldn't let you" Said a familiar voice from not too far away.

Jay gave Xander mouth-to-mouth, hoping he wouldn't die. After she finished, she stiffened, recognizing the voice.

Drake turned around and saw....

Serge growled at the voice.

Xander coughed, but could breath a little bit easier.

"Who are you, and can you help?" Drake begged.

Jake came into view.

"Jake, why are you here" Jay asked, angry.

"Jake? Who's he????"

Persephone flapped her black wings and walked to Jake. She had to look up to see him.

OOC: And with Jake follows Sachi.

Sachi hid behind Jake shyly.

"Huh. You look okay, but your eyes hold mischief and hate." Persephone says.

Just like I used to be...

Jake gave a small glare to Persephone. "Because, I just happened to be roaming with Sachi near you guys. I can see you weirdos are still together" Jake rudely remarked.

Jay tried to not blow up "Yes. We are" Jay said as though she was holding back.

"You know these people?" asked Nega. They reminded him of two of his goons Megavolt and Liquidator.

"We're so split up." Xander coughed weakly.

Serge nodded.

"Xander, breath normally, you two, who are you two?"

Jay walked to Jake, her blood boiling. "Listen, if you're here to insult us shifters, then leave. I don't need someone trying to kill me, alright? Or anyone else. Well, maybe that duck, but no one else." Jay said angrily.

Jake scoffed "You can't tell me what to do, weirdo. I don't need to take orders from someone who's not normal" Jake said with a roll of his eyes.

Drake rolled his eyes after what Jake said.

Sachi laid a hand on Jake's shoulder.
"Jake please stop. You're insulting my brother as well. He's injured so please, stop." She says quietly.

Xander whimpers.
"Sachi."

Jake sighed. "Fine" He said. "I'll be back in the forest. These people haven't changed." Jake said turning to walk away in annoyance.

Jay growled as she walked back to Xander.

"Who's that chump?" Drake asked with a cocked eyebrow.
