Howl (COMPLETED FOR NOW)

Light

•ALANA'S POV•
I stare at Chris wishing I would see some movement or something... Anything. As I was looking at Chris, Cameron walked through the doorway.
"I can't believe you would let them do this." I said to Cameron not looking at him.
"Well, Alana it's better that he is gone now because you would get even more hurt if he was here." Cameron replied inching closer to me. I let his words sink into me. Wait, what did he mean by that?
"What do you mean?" I scoot my chair away from the body of Chris to look at Cameron, who is surprisingly close to me.
"I've told you before," Cameron paused before going on, "Chris was using you. He knew about your powers and James assigned him to be your body guard and figure out what would and wouldn't set you off. He did all of this because James told him to." Cameron stopped talking looking for my reaction. I felt my body go numb. Well, not just my body my heart and soul, too.
"You know what Cameron? You used me too so I would love it if you would go away." I say looking away gripping the handles of my chair.
"You know if I could change things I would." Cameron said looking down.
"Don't give me that shit." I said tears swelling in my eyes trying to fight their way down my face.
I turn my vision to lifeless Chris still not coming back. I hear the now distant steps of Cameron walking down the hall and I scoot my chair over to Chris to where I'm facing him once again. I hold his sturdy hands and I close my eyes. I clear my mind and think of nothing besides him. This pit of blackness surrounds me and I go into that horrible place.

•CHRIS' POV•
I knew it wouldn't work. All I thought about when Alana was going back was trying to get her out of this place. Maybe her power is coming into and out of the black veil. Or at least where I am. Well, I don't exactly know where I am to be honest.
Currently, I am still walking through the thick woods nude. I heard something crunch to the right of me and instantly my eyes glow and my nails grow. I look and smell the area surrounding me. That's when I hear breathing and I follow it. I come to a tree and the breathing is so heavy I should be able to see where it's coming from but I don't. All of a sudden a scent of vanilla cookies filled the air and I'm pretty sure my heart skipped a beat and I looked up in the tree.
Of fucking course little miss stubborn was up there.
"What in the hell are you doing here?" I half whispered half yelled.
"I can't and won't leave you here." Alana said making her stubbornness show.
"You should have though." I said looking at the ground.
I hear Alana climbing down from the tree and then a branch breaks. Within a spilt second I am there to catch her. I immediately regret it because I have no clothes on... awkward. I let her stand up and look at her. Alana inside looks worn out and to the breaking point but Alana outside looks undefeatable.
"We need to find you clothes." she says only looking at my face.
"It's not like holister is right around the corner." I say half smiling.
That sarcastic earned me a punch in the shoulder. With that punch she turned and started walking. I followed shortly behind her trying to figure out how the hell am I going to get clothes?
As I'm in my head she stops and gasps making me bump into her. I look at her eyes and I travel mine to where she is looking. There, right in front of her, is a dead male body. He had slash marks all over his chest but his short were untouched. Sure, they had blood on them but they weren't bad.

•ALANA'S POV•
I turn to Chris giving him a 'you're taking the shorts off the dead boy look' and he acknowledged the look then bent down to the boy. I turned away blushing because there is basically two nude guys behind me. I bite my lip and hold my elbow as my anxiety rises from the dark woods ahead of me. I wonder what is out there yet I don't really want to find out.
"Okay, I have dead boy shorts on." Chris says making me jump from the sudden sound.
I turn around to see Chris and he is not any less than I expected with his visible abs and broad shoulders. Just for one moment I thought he wasn't in this predicament. I thought I wasn't the cause of all of this. I put head down and whisper, "We need to keep moving."
"What's up with you?" I hear Chris say as he comes closer to me.
"It's nothing let's try to get out of here one more time." I say looking up at him. The tears start to swell up and I look away having my eyes transfixed on the dark woods ahead of us. I feel the warmth of Chris' giant arms turn me around and encircle me. Before I know it tears are trying to stream down my face but they catch Chris' bare chest.
"Why the hell can't I keep anything from you?" I say chuckling with tears streaming down my face.
We pull away and Chris grabs my hand and we start walking. We don't know where we are going but we know we're together. For once in this horrible and dark place I see the light and it's us.
