Fire and bombs exploded, igniting the dark, midnight sky in flashes of bright orange, red, and yellow. Agonizing screams echoed into the night, screaming for help from anyone. The smell of blood and death was thick upon the atmosphere, stinging her nostrils, and causing that timber wolf inside to scratch at the surface; wanting to tear and eat the remnants of dead bodies. Dee looked down to her left, and what she saw she couldn't believe. Maya..what was left of Maya...broken and torn apart laying in a pool of blood. To her right, she saw Trent with his insides ripped out, and his head separated from the rest of his body. And just below her feet...there he was...Geller. His body was together, but he laid in a mass pool of blood, overflowing from his body. When she looked up, everyone she ever met was fighting for their lives against...against her old unit?! All the buildings in the city were demolished and crumbling to the ground. It was as if WWIII had just begun.
A loud, agonizing, pitiful scream exploded from her throat. Tears were streaming down her face like a waterfall, pooling down to her lap. When she blinked again, she was sitting in the living room watching TV. Hands quickly wiped away the tears from her cheek. Wait, why was she crying? She wasn't watching anything sad on TV. She stood from the couch and headed to the fridge in the kitchen, immediately chugging on a bottle of beer and prepared herself a large, po-boy roast beef sandwich. Man, she was hungry all of a sudden! Once the delicious sandwich was made, she sat back on the couch and flipped the channel to Whose Line Is It Anyways? Laughter now echoed in the Geller househould.
Jenna got off work early, was planning on a long bath to unwind before Geller got home. She was upstairs, sitting on the side of the tub ready to draw the water when she heard the screams. It sounded desperate! She nabbed a robe from the hook in their bathroom. Long legs took the stairs three at a time, landing on the first floor with a light cat like grace. The purple robe shivered around her legs, while she heard and smelled Dee in the kitchen. Her blonde head cocked, picking up every sound.
It was when the laughter started that both her brows shot up, wondering if maybe she had imagined the sounds of earlier. But no. Jenna was far from insane, and had not hallucinated in this lifetime. Padding toward the living room, she glanced at the television, then to Dee as she ate her sandwich.
"Hey, lovely, are you okay?" The perfectly shaped brows drew together as she drew closer, lowering to the sofa and curling her legs up beneath her, propping her head with fingertips to her temple, her elbow on the back of the sofa.
"I heard....what sounded like screams and crying, Dee..." Euradacee never struck Jenna as a flighty female. She always had a good bead on reality, and seemed to take things as they came. Albeit she was high strung, but most of the lycans were at times.
The scent of violets wafted from Jenna, a coiling heat of fragrance and comfort from the tigress who naturally brought that gift to those who needed it most. Tigers were fierce and dangerous, but in times of need they were often the first ones to step up and help. Even moreso when it was those who mattered, and the wolves in this house mattered to Jenna Foster.
~ Cadence was out front on the porch on her cell phone with her agent Rafael talking to about some things that needed to be straighten out with him. ~ " No Rafael I can't do them days .." ~ Staring out into the street as she listen to her agent on the other end of her cell phone. Tucking some hair behind her ear. ~ " Alright I will have to try and see what I can do. But I can't promise anything alright ? " ~ That was when she heard the scream be let out by someone in the house in which she spoke quickly to Rafael ~ " I gotten go I'll call you later " ~ Then would push the end button on the phone as she hop off the steps to make her way into the house. Shoving the door open and sliding on her bare feet into the living room ~
" Is everything ok in here Euridacee ? " ~ Looking about to see nothing wrong but her now laughing at the TV. Slowly making her way over to jump over the back of the couch to plop down next to Euridacee . Before tearing a piece of Euridacee sandwich off placing it within her mouth and chewing. Before giving a wave to Jenna on the other side of Dee Dee. ~ " Hi ! .." - Big toothy grin was giving to the women -
So, yeah, she had been told to make an effort and to visit each of the houses were the wolves were living but.... well, she had been putting it off. Why? Simply because she was unsure of her welcome, unsure of just how to show up on the doorstep and say 'Hi, I thought I'd visit'. It just wasn't the sort of thing that she did, that she felt comfortable with. But Ash hadn't really given her a choice so the best she'd been able to do was to put it off until she really couldn't anymore without it transforming from procrastination to defiance and, well, open defiance was a rare emotion for the redhead.
The black Triumph rumbled down the street to the address she'd been given for Geller and the wolves that lived with him and she effortlessly parked the bike at the curb, lightly caressing the warmth of the gas tank as she dismounted, amber gaze studying the house in front of her. A deep breath taken to steady herself, hands lifting to rake through the tangles of her hair, tugging out the windblown knots before she made her way up to the front door. How hard can this be? Right? Hand lifted to ring the bell, taking in the scents that clung around the house.
When Jenna approached upon the couch with a concern look in those beautiful blue eyes, Dee arched a slender, dark brow, and shrugged her nude shoulders.
"Huh? No I'm alright Jenna. Ummm...noooo I wasn't crying or screaming. I might've had the TV too loud or something and maybe that's what you heard...?"
But in reality, Dee did cry and scream because of the horrible vision that flashed within those glistening, emerald jewels. Just then, Cadence approached and slid into the couch with them, also questioning if Dee was okay.
"Why is everyone asking me if I'm okay? I'm fine, I promise! I swear nothing is going on. I mean, I miss Sirus, if that's what you mean. He's out of town again and I don't know when he's coming home...."
Which, that was the truth. The last time she saw Sirus was at the baseball game where they shared a deep, loving, passionate kiss and he asked her to be his girlfriend. While those eyes were locked upon the TV, the sound of a distant bomb falling down was heard in the background. Though, only Dee could hear it; Jenna and Cadence could not.
Once Dee realized that the bomb was falling closer, heading directly for their house, Dee suddenly leaped from her crouched position, sprawling over Cadence and Jenna.
"WATCH OUT!! BOMB!!"
Was all she could scream as the couch flipped over with them from Dee's launching strength. The couch flipped over; the arm slamming into the side table knocking it to the floor, breaking the lamp. Dee laid over Jenna and Cadence with the couch as their shield of protection.
But of course....there wasn't really a bomb falling from the sky to blow up their house....
Jenna was just giving a wink and wave to Cadence, when Dee mentioned Sirus.
"Oh well, yes, I can imagine that missing your...." but there was little time for more. Dee's scream had Jenna's eyes widening, having only time to glance at the TV to see if What's My Line had somehow threatened them. The sandwich Dee was eating got tossed up in the air, then Jenna was being plowed into by the wolf, along with Cadence. A long leg hiked up in the air, drop kicking the roast beef sandwich into a jettison like launch completely out of the living room, landed with unceremoniously in the hallway. The couch flipped, Jenna's back hit the floor, and the next thing realized, she was sprawled beneath Dee with Cadence at her side. The blonde hair was a splayed out around her, her robe was hiked to her thigh, one foot lay over the upturned sofa, her arms clutching Dee like she was ready to fight a moving garrison of soldiers, with the other feeling for Cadence to ensure the little wolf was unharmed.
A few blinks later, Jenna scooted her head to look at Dee.
"Right. That was interesting...." She glanced to the door, from her position flat on the floor. "There's another wolf out there, maybe one of us should get the door, invite them in?"
Then she put her fingertips to Dee's chin gentle and said.
- Cadence would give a wave and grin to Jenna on Dee Dee other side. Before she would look to the Tv . Then had smelled Lou before she knocked the door. Since she was about to get up to invite Lou in as she would bellow out. - " Door is unlock !! ..Come in .. " - Slowly getting ready to slide off the couch but that didn't happen within seconds Dee Dee was spread out over her the couch flipped over with them begin underneath it. -
- Blinking some as she looked toward Jenna wondering what just happen. Then look to Dee Dee..like she had grown a second head - " Dee Dee there is no bomb !..Have you hit your head anytime lately ? " - Trying to shimmy some from underneath Dee Dee as she lay on top of her to go get the door - " Hold on be there in a moment .. "
- Finally getting out from underneath Dee Dee. She made her way into the foyer to answer the door if Lou hadn't heard her bellow about the door being open. - " I'll be back..I'm going to go get the broom and dustpan .."
Lou was 'tasting' the scents that lingered about the house as she waited on the doorstep when she heard the bellow.
" Door is unlock !! ..Come in .. "
Alrighty, hand to the door she was stepping inside, letting the strongest scents and sounds guided her towards the living room when she heard the terrified cry.
"WATCH OUT!! BOMB!!"
She was running then, darting into the room as she heard the clattering and grunts of the bodies flipping over the couch. She skidded to a halt in the doorway, staring at the debris of the couch and women untangling themselves. "Um... everything ok?" Yeah, maybe tonight had been a bad idea to visit.
And if the light switch had turned off just as easily as that curse turned on, Dee blinked those glistening emerald eyes a few times, realizing that she was sprawled across and over half-naked Jenna and Cadence.
"Ummm..Jenna? Why am I on top of you, and why are you half-naked? I mean, you're a beautiful woman and I would totally go lesbo on you right now, but...what happened?"
When Cadence scooted herself from underneath, Dee rolled off Jenna and scooted back to hit against the coffee table. She looked at the odd, messy scene before her; the couch completely flipped over, the side table down for the count, and the beautiful, expensive lamp shattered into pieces. Did she just do this?
"Did....did I just do that?"
Just then, Lou came busting through the front door, inquiring the scenery. Dee's delicate, cherub features matched with the same look on everyone else's face. What the hell happened?
Speak of the devil and he shall come, or in this case, the wolf come in place of Satan. Sirus took a moment to collect himself before he walked up to the door, after all of the things he had to account for in Salem he was ready to take a load off and get back to his life with the pack. It'd come to his attention while spending time with Dee that someone, namely his own flesh and blood, had the gall to rape the one memory of his mother that stood against the test of time with his drunken antics and scathing remarks about his own son. He couldn't allow his father to piss upon the ashes of his past could he? And now he was back in New Orleans among friends and loved ones, namely his love interest whom he smelled upon the way in. God, it was only a few days after they'd shared their first kiss that this ugly problem reared its head... That would not stop him from reconnecting with his porcelain skinned beauty and with the energy of a punch drunk ten year old Sirus rapped his knuckles against the door.
"Geller? Dee? It's Sirus, open uuuuuppp!"

"Yes, love you did, you screamed something about a bomb and then covered us with your body. On the upside, you were protecting us." Jenna scooted from beneath Dee, the lesbian comment drawing a faint laugh as she gathered her robe together and stood, tying the tie with a quick jerk and tug.
She inclined her head to Lou with a smile, never having met her formally. "I'm Jenna nice to meet you."
She opened the door for Sirus. "Hello, seems you've caught us in the midst of a curiosity. I'm not sure what just happened, but it appears Dee is...." Is what? Seeing things? Hearing things? Both?
Jenna cleared her throat and tossed back the blonde hair, licking her lips, before turning in one smooth motion to let her eyes land on Dee again. She was worried about her, something was going on and it was completely out of character for the military she wolf.
"Do you remember anything at all, Dee?"
-- Edited by JENNA on Friday 2nd of September 2011 04:27:17 PM
Sirus cautiously walked into the whole mess without an inkling to the odd response that burst out of Dee's cherry red lips like an angry swarm of wasps. If he had been there earlier to catch her 'bomb' scare he would have something to bite on and instead of that he curiously eyed his love interest with general concern ravaging his emerald hues.
"Appears she's...?"
Sirus turned his eyes from Jenna to Dee, then to Lou and the relatively unknown female.
"Am I missing something here?"
Given the female to male ratio he could have easily stumbled into something private shared between the quartet but the way Jenna's words trailed off buoyed his curiosity.
Her eyes remained on Dee for a moment, but knowing Sirus was concerned, as anyone who cared would be, she told all she knew.
Relating the events as they transpired as succinctly as possible, the lilt of the British accent became more crisp, enunciating each word.
"I heard someone screaming, then I heard crying, it sounded like Dee. When I ran downstairs to check on her, she was on the sofa watching television, eating a sandwich and laughing. Then Cadence entered the room, we started to talk, and Dee screamed something about a bomb, to watch out, then put her body over us, to protect us, I'm assuming. I know she seems unaware of the lapses."
A nod was given to Jenna when she introduced herself, "Lou," just that sort word. There was no way of denying that Jenna spent time here, her scent was laced all over the house the same as wolves that lived here with Geller. She moved quietly to start cleaning up some of the debris of what happened when the others started to talk about what happened.
A quick nod was given to Sirus as she puttered about the room, trying to clean it up and listening quietly to the disucssion.
She knew damn well that Jenna, Cadence, Lou or Sirus weren't crazy, especially after Jenna relaying what had just happened.
"I....I don't remember doing that...at all."
She stayed curled in a ball against the coffee table. Even when Sirus, her handsome, wonderful, away-a-lot boyfriend came inside, she remained in that fetal position. Her long, slender legs crushed into her chest as her arms wrapped around them and laid her chin upon her knees.
"Am.....am I going crazy?! Awww fuck, I knew I was next! I knew that after those disappearances and everything happening to the wolves..I knew it! I just knew it!"
She squeezed her eyes shut, shaking those luscious, black licorice locks side to side. She remembered the conversation between Geller and herself in the kitchen right after he appeared from missing. She even told him that she was next because it was one of those gut feelings she just couldn't shake away.
"Oh God..."
Clear, tiny teardrops were streaming down her face, entwining with the mascara that casted a thin line of black down her cherub, soft cheeks.
"Why is this happening to me? Why can't I remember?!"
Jenna was right though. At least whatever bad that was going to happen, or will happen, Dee would protect them, even from non-existent bombs.

- Cadence would make her way back into the living room with dustpan and broom. Blinking at Sirus who had enter but also to Lou. - " Hello.. " - She would formally greet them once the mess was cleaned up. Moving over toward Lou giving her a smile and handing her the dust pan so she didn't cut herself. While she listen to Jenna tell what was going on. - " I don't think your going crazy. Maybe they are just flash backs ? "
- Once Lou and her got the mess clean up from the lamp. She would carry it back to the kitchen to throw away. Hearing Dee Dee becoming upset with what is happening to her. She would began to fix some tea to help calm Dee Dee down a bit. Once the water was boiling and place in the tea kettle she brought out some cups and tea on the tray to the living room. - " You will be ok we will figure it out. Here some tea it will help you calm down.." - Holding out a cup with some warm tea with some lemon. While helping Dee Dee sit up from he fetal postion as she would sit next to her on the floor -
Nurturing was not one of Sirus' strong suits, but upon seeing Dee folding rapidly under the influence of her possible psychosis there was no room for apprehension. With the help of Cadence (which gained her a respectful nod from Sirus), Sirus took Dee into his arms and welcomed her tightly against his chest in hopes that the flow of his heartbeat would keep her mind relaxed.
"Dee... It's all right. You're with friends and a loved one, you're safe with us, okay? I swear to God I won't ever leave you by yourself again if it means your mental safety."
In truth the male wolf hadn't the faintest idea on how to protect her, but as long as he could restrain her and keep her comfortable at the same time at least she couldn't bring harm to herself or worse, someone else.
"I want you to focus on my breathing and imagine something that will bring you security... Like a golden ball of warm energy. Okay?"
Sirus added his own brand of emphasis in the form of a delicately placed kiss at her temple.

A flicker of a smile was offered to Cadence when she offered the dustpan, cleaning up the mess and putting the debris in the living room to rights. She followed Cadence to the kitchen to throw away the shattered glass and other garbage, lingeirng a moment to get a glass of water to bring out into the living room.
She hesitated a moment watching as Cadence and Sirus offered comfort to Dee before setting the glass of water near by. More and more she was thinking this might be bad timing for her to come and visit but then again... they were all pack right? Lower lip was caught between her teeth in a light nibble as she moved off to the side, watching as the others soothed Dee.
A deep breath was taken before softly offering, "It might not be you. It... someone could have done it.... to you I mean." Lou had been around a while, seen a lot of things and one of the things she's seen more then once is how someone could mess with someone else's head.
The tea that Cadence brought on a tray was a caring, sweet gesture, but Dee couldn't bring herself to eat or drink anything right now. She was mentally going insane; hearing shit, and not remembering anything about what she heard. What was the next step? Start seeing shit? Then what? Seeing shit that entwined and may confuse her family and loved one with enemies of her past?
When Sirus lifted her into his lap, wrapping those muscular, nude arms around her curled body, Dee relaxed into his cradling. She pressed the side of her head to his chest, listening to his steady heart beat, and drowning herself in his winter snow blanket of power that warmed her and calmed her to her very core. Being in his arms, being in his presence, just being with him was like a white Christmas.
When Lou spoke up, Dee opened her eyes and listened to the red-head beauty's words. What if she was right? What if someone did this to her? Purposely?
"But why would someone do this to me? I mean, I don't have any enemies. They're all pretty much dead, except one. But he's human. And he has no clue what I am or where I'm at."
As far as she knew, anyways. But thinking of Lou's suggestion, what if someone did to this to her? And why? How? She certainly didn't remember meeting a witch and casting a spell on her. She tends to stay gun-distance away from people with such magical powers.
- Cadence would place the cup of tea on the tray behind Dee Dee if she had wanted it afterwards. Watching Sirius scoop up Dee in his arms as she would give them some space as she would slide onto the couch. - " Well have you met any new people who been kind weird or acting strange? " - Cadence would tuck some hair behind her ears waiting for Dee Dee to answer her question. Looking to Lou seeing she was looking like she wanted to leave. Before looking to the rest in the living room -
" Well shouldn't we give Ash,Geller and Silent a call to let them know what is going on? So that incase someone is trying to harm the pack that they can have knowledge of what's happening. But if this is a random attack on just Dee Dee everyone can try and keep a eye out on her ? " - She was speaking her mind on what was a good idea . Back home when someone try to harm a pack member that information was told to the Ulfric and the rest of the pack so everyone can help and watch out for the pack member who was being harmed. -
