Deuce looked at Luna and blinked. "Really?" he asked and smiled. "That's very impressive indeed. Maybe we can go look at it someday." he suggested, but he knew family was a very sensitive subject for her.

Emily's aunt laughed, "Why thank-you Thomas! You're always such a sweet young man. I'm telling you Emily, he's a keeper." she said, making Emily blush a bright red. Perhaps it was best to let them know that she and Thomas were going on a date soon.

Luna sat up."really?",she said looking happy."can we go today?"

Thomas blinked and smiled blushing."thank you",he said to her sunt,then grinned at Emily

Deuce chuckled and nodded. "We can go there right now if you want to Luna." he answered. He was curious to see the art that her father had made.

Emily smiled at Thomas and took a deep breath before letting it out. "I think we should tell them. What do you think?" she asked Thomas. Her aunt and uncle looked at them confused. "Tell us what?" her uncle asked.

Luna grinned more as she pulled her feet out of the water and shoved them back into her shoes and jumped up.'okay lets go!"

Thomas nodded and blushed a little."i asked Emily out on a date"

Deuce laughed and nodded. "Alright let's go." he said. Standing up, he took her hand in his and walked with her to look at the art.

"You did?!" Emily's aunt gasped and clasped her hands together. "Oh my goodness! I am so happy for the both of you, I know you two will be happy, you make such a sweet couple." she said and looked at Emily. "You did accept right?" she asked. Emily blushed and nodded. "Of course I did auntie, how could I say no?" she answered and smiled. "I believe we can go on that date now since I am feeling better, I am looking forward to it." she said. "Well I'm sure you both will have fun." her uncle answered.

Luna smiled softly when he took her hand again.Though as they walked along she shvered and looked behinde her,getting the feeling they were being watched

Thomas was blushing more and smiled at Emily."good then if your up for it we can go now"

Deuce stopped walking and sniffed the air, narrowing his eyes."Shh..." he whispered to Luna and looked around. Someone was watching and probably following them, but who?

Emily gasped and grinned. "W-we can?" she asked and hugged herself. "Oh I would love to Thomas!" she answered happily.

Luna moved closer to Duece and froze seeing a lareg wolf ,bigger then Deuces wolf formcoming out of the shadows of a willow tree,it seemed to smirk at the two of them.

Thomas smield."well,if your up for it lets go"

Deuce glared at the large wolf, "What do you want!?" he hissed and looked at Luna. "Don't move..." he whispered and let go of her. He knew he would have to turn into his wolf form which would be painful but it was the only way to protect her.

"Oh, can we go?" she asked her uncle who nodded. "You two go on and have fun." he answered. Her aunt nodded and smiled. "First dates are important but what matters is that you both enjoy yourselves." she said. "Okay, we'll be back soon. Come on Thomas." Emily said happily.

Thomas smiled and lead her otside to his mtar cycle and haned her a spare helmet,though as the wind blew,he caught a strange scent.He let it go for now,but would keep an eye on it.

Luna nodded ,to afraid to speak.

The larger wolf snareled at Duece as he eyes Luna and took a step forward

Deuce growled as a warning for the wolf to back off. He wasn't scared of him and wasn't afraid of attacking if he needed too. Slowly and painfully, he began to change, crying out in pain as he did.

"Thank-you." Emily said as she strapped on the helmet. She was looking forward to this date. Emily had never been on a date before so she didn't know what to expect.

Luna looked to Duece feeling bad that he was in pain.

The wolf frowled backed watching Luna then as Deuce was shngeing ,it charged at them

"your very welcome",Thomas said as he got on first."okay get on behinde me and hold onto my weist tightly"

Deuce growled angrily and charged at the wolf. He threw him to the side, making it slam against a tree. Deuce was already breathing heavily but he wasn't going to just give up.

Emily nodded and got on behind Thomas. She wrapped her arms around his waist and held on tightly. "Ready when you are." she said to him.

Th wolf got up and shook himseklf off as if nothing hd happened,then grinned as it charged at Deuce this time slamming him aganst a tree with the fourse of a babbyelephant

Thomas nodded."great hold on",he said and took off

Deuce managed to get back up and charged at the other, biting his shoulder hard then turned to Luna and barked at her, wanting her to run away.

Emily made sure to hold on tightly as they sped off.

Damen smilde as he went along.He headed for the beach,glad it was still summer weather

Luna had go to check on Deuce but he had gotten back up and attacked the wold again.Then when he barked at her she frowned.She didn't want to leave hi alone."But Deuce"

Emily smiled, enjoying the warm weather. It was always nice to get out of the house.

Deuce shook his head and nudged her. She needed to go, he would go look for her later. She was in danger right now.

Luna nodded."please be safe",she siad and ran off deep into the woods,feeling safer there.

The wolf watched her run off and appeared to smirk.Then growing it charged a bit Deuce's arm

---

Slowly stopping,Thomas smiled."wow we came at a good time,almost no one here"

Deuce cried out in pain and bit down on the wolf's neck as hard as he could. He was going to end up in the hospital, he knew it.

When they arrived at the beach, Emily smiled. "Wow, I've never been to the beach before." she admitted.

Thomas looked to her."what really?",he asked shocked.

The wolf snareled and trighed to shake Deuce free

Emily nodded. "Really. I've always heard of the beach but I never actually visited a beach before. I never had the time since I was always working or at school." Emily explained.

Deuce held on for as long as he could until the other managed to shake him off. Shakingly, he got back up and snarled at the other.

Thomas frowned."oh",he smiled."well then I'll make sure you enjoy it",he blinked as he head thunde,looking up towrads the wood he frowned."we have time,that storm won't reach us for a while..."

The other wolf was panting a little as it watched Deauce struggeling to get up.There was a mall crack of thunder as it began to rain in there area ,with a deep deathly growl ,he chraged again and slamed Deuce into a tree agin,as hard as he could.

Emily looked up at the sound of thunder and nodded. "Alright then, should we build a sand castle? Or would you like to swim in the water? Or did you have something else in mind?" she asked curiously.

Deuce whimpered in pain, hearing something crack and he was sure it wasn't the tree, it was bone. He fell down and was breathing heavily but he barked at the wolf angrily.

Thomas smiled softly."well yes to the sand castle and swimming after ,would you like some ice cream?",he asked


The wolf growled walking over towards him.Sh barred his fangs ready to finish it The snarled as Luna suddenly jumped on his back.

Luna pulled back on the wolfs ears."get away form him!",she yelled angily

The wolf gave a deeper snarl adn it start to try and shake her,then finally was able to grab her with is claws and ripped hrr off him,digging its claws into her side,he tossed her to the side ,making sure to slam her into the gruound and growled more as she yelpped.Then started to going fpr Deauce again .

Luna slowly got up,grabbing a stick she wacked teh wolf afain,ignoreing teh pain she flet in her side."I said leave him alone!"

The wold wacked ehr away and gave what seemed like a huff and charged at her

Emily grinned and nodded. "Oh yes please! Ice cream sounds wonderful!" she replied happily.

Deuce was slowly getting back up when he saw Luna jump out and attack the other wolf. He quickly barked at her, what was she doing?! She was going to get hurt! Getting back up, he was panting and charged at the other wolf, tossing him onto a tree and away from Luna. His whole body hurt, but he couldn't give up now. Quickly, he charged at the wolf again and bit it's leg.
