Luna yealed and blinked a bit at Eric,then to the man infront of them,trumbeling as she stared at one of the ones resposible for her parents deaths."wh-why ...."

"Because I could." The man laughed then smirked at Eriks growl. "Down boy. I don't think here's the place." he smirked then looked to the woods as howls sounded. "See you in a bit." he rushed off. Erik growled lower "don't worry Luna I'll catch him and explain everything. Please go home lock the doors and windows, don't let anyone in." he looked to her.

Luna blinked out f her fear and nodded."o-okay",she said softly and then started to run for home.

Erik waited till she left then bolted home gathering the lack they went after his brother.

Artemis stopped in front of her house. "here we are." She smiled at him. "Thanks for walking me home."

Tom smiled as they stopped."anytime",he said smiling softly though blinked looking aroind.A strange scent came across,he didnt like it.Looking to Artemis and smiled."see you at school tomorow",he said softly

"Alright its a plan." Artemis slipped into her room smiling softly as she locked herself in. She did her homework and started to get ready for bed.

Luna got home,slamming the door shut she locked it tight,before sittoing on the floor staring at the door.Nope she was not leaving the house.Nope,no way no how.

Tom smiled softly then with a sigghed he took off running.Growling at the sent if a vampire

Erik and the pack dragged his brother back. He was covred in bruises when he shifted back but limped to his bed for a nap.

Next Day;

Tom was waiting for Artemis outside her house,he ad smelled another vampire,and had trailed him until he left the city.Thats all he need,aother vampire ,plus wolf boy tp deal with.

Luna had texted Artemis,telling her that she wasn't going to school ,because she was feeling sick

Artemis emerged from her house blinking at Tom. "Oh hey." she smiled distracted by the fact that Luna wasn't feeling well.

Tom smiled.Glad she was okay."hey,i thought ied walk to shcool and desided to come walk with you",he said with a small bush

"Sure." Artemis smiled at Tom. "I want to visit Luna first she's not feeling good."

Tom frowned."alright",he said calmly."I hope she's not too sick"

"I hope so too." Artemis bite her lip another nervous habit she had. They arrived at Luna's house and she knocked "Luna it's me."

Tom stood behind her and frowned at the silence."maybe she went to get some medicine",he said then blinked as the door dracked open a bit and Luna poked her head out.

"Thank goodness." Artemis grinned at her friend. "how are you feeling? Do you need anything?"

'A shrink'Luna thought sadly."sleep",she said softly.

Tom frowned."you look exsasuted...'

"Luna." Erik called from the sidewalk his face was bruised and so was his body.

"Holy!" Artemis gasped. "Erik are you ok?"

Erik nodded. "yeah." he groaned. "just a little sore."

Luna froze gher head spazing as she debated on locking Eric out,though,he ddin't look so good.She felt the fear run through he didnt look to good.Opening the door fully she sqweezed past Artemis and Tom,carefuly goping over to him."you look terrible,you hsould come inside"

Tom could smell fear passing of Luna,almost glaring at Eric,though linked as Luna went over to him.Sighing he went over."I'll help.....get you inside",he half laughed."we should all call in...justy hand gout here"

Erik limped inside glad when Artemis closed the door. He feel to his knees in front of Luna "I am so sorry Luna. If I had know I would have stopped him." he growled. "Are alpha is dealing with him I promise."

Tom stod by Artemis,and blinked as Eric had dropped to his knees and starte talking.Twitching a bit,did, he forget Artemis was there?

Luna jumped a bit as he fell.She stared down at him feeling bad for him. He was hurt but was till worried for her.She opened up the cubbrd next to her and pulled out the first aid,going onto her knees,he pulled out some rubbing alchohol."this wi;; sting",she said putting come onto a cotton ball and carefuylly dabbed it ont come of his cuts. "and its okay.....it want in your control..."

Erik twitched when the alcohol touched his wounds. "I just wanted to check on you." he mumbled. "And I wanted to explain things to you." he groaned as she touched a large bruise.

"have I missed something." Artemis frowned realizing that Erik didn't seem to realize they where there.

Tom frowned."thats what I was wondering"

Luna looked to him."im fine",she lied."and explain later",she said as she bandaged the cuts."I'll find an ice pack.Tom,maybe you could help him to the living room?",she asked looking to Artemis."can you hel;p me fnd the ice pack?",she said softly.

Tom nodded and went to Eric,being careful as he gently hauled him to his feet and heped him to the living room

Erik felt someone help him to his feet and followed with a groan. He sank onto the couch and passed out without a second thought.

"Sure." Artemis followed her friend. "Want to tell me whats going on?"

Tom frowend at him.There would be no questioning him now.

Luna looked to her."he....his....",she sighed."Eric,is a werewolf...his brother is one of the things that killed my parnets",she said in a rushed huff.Grabbing the ice pack she headed back to the living room and paused seeing Eric passed out.Frowning she went over and oved him so he was laying down.Looking hims over she placed an ice pack on his head to start with.Then looked to Tom."if i gave you some money,do you think you culd go by me come more ice packs.I only have the one.."
