Lust for Blood

Chapter 17

Recently on Lust for Blood;

"Phoenix?" I continued mumbling, ignoring him completely. "Then, t-then I'm gonna go t-to the prison and m-make things burn" the insanity seeping into the voice. "Hey, crazy what are you doing?" I laughed at what I said.

I looked up at him, fully realizing that he was standing to close for comfort. "Get. Out. Of. My. Face" I snarled, my hand twitching.

I tensed my body, ready for attack. He must have noticed this, cause he stepped back. I snarled at him, baring my teeth at him.

I let the energy pass through me, and teleported away, into my cave losing myself in the darkness.

Now onto the chapter!

"Elliot I swear I didn't touch her!" A voice said - which I'm guessing it's Charlie - worriedly "You better fucking have not" Elliot growled at him. I mumbled incoherent curses sitting up slowly "Look what you did! You woke her up!" I heard a sickening crack, if I wasn't so used to death that would have made me throw up.

"Thanks man" Charlie said seemingly out of breath. I finally opened my eyes after sitting fully up "What are you idiots doing here?" Sleep filled my voice "I wanted to make sure you're okay" Charlie mumbled "I'm fine" I snapped at them, fully awake, looking them dead in the face.

"Why'd you go... psycho last time?" Elliot rolled his eyes and slapped him on the back of his head "I went 'psycho' because I am psycho" I heard them lowly gasp I rolled my eyes.

"So typical, what you think I'm a bitch for no reason other than I am a confident son of a bitch" Elliot tensed "I am psychotic, and sociopathic, but I can't do shit about it. Hell I was born this way" I snorted.

"Now. Why. The. Hell. Are. You. Here?" They shifted slightly awkward, "Elliot uh, threatened me" Charlie said uncomfortably, while. I laughed and looked at Elliot "Seriously?" he just shrugged.

I looked back at Charlie still laughing "I n-" I sniffed, the air. Smelling a foreign scent.

I snickered and speedily stood up grinning like a mad woman, "Well boys, I have things I need to take care of" they tried to stop me, seeing as I am faster than them both combined, I sprinted right by them.

I saw a bear attacking a wolf. I grinned and leaned against a tree, studying the bear and wolf. "You could stop the bear from attacking the poor wolf you know" I grinned feeling the adrenaline pump after seeing the bear latch his jaws onto the wolves leg.

I fist pumped the air when the bear finally ended his torment on the wolf, effectively ripping his jugular out. "You really are a sick bastard" Charlie rolled his eyes.

"I enjoy the kill, even if I'm not the one killing" I laughed excitedly "Charlie we can g- holy shit, why is there a bear eating a wolf?" I jumped happily, fast walking towards the bear, slowing when he saw me.

*Phoenix, haven't seen you for a while* I gasped not really feeling like talking in my brain "Jerry! Nice kill, I thought I knew those moves from somewhere!" I squealed excitedly running towards him "Phoenix don't!" I jumped onto him, falling when he fell. I started kissing his fur.

*I missed you Nix* I felt his paws wrap around me in a hugging manner. I hopped off him, punching him lightly as he stood up on all fours.

"You messed up your technique on that jugular move" I scolded. Jerry was like a son to me. I found him when he was a cub, and raised him to be like me, except the one thing he had I didn't, he had a heart and soul.

*Oh? And what's that?* he roared out a chuckle. I moved my hand to his throat, pushing gently "You did this," I showed him his technique, watching his reaction go from proud, to a sad look as if he was scolded.

*Ohhhh..... So I do this* he moved his paw to my throat showing how he should do it, I heard Elliot growl "Yes, good job. I'm proud of your progress" I grinned, giving off mother vibes.

He grinned a bearish grin, probably feeling like a proud cub. *Thanks mom* my smile widening "You're so very welcome! Come, son I want you to meet someone" I turned to face Elliot and Charlie "Jer, meet my... mate... Elliot and his friend Charlie" he huffed standing to his full hight *Wow mom, I didn't know you had one" he growled at them

"Me either son, me either" they both looked lost for words "Elliot , Charlie, meet my cub, I've raised him for his whole life, he has been my only companion for about 8 years now" Elliot looked shocked, while Charlie just looked confused "Now," I turned to Jerry "you sir have homework. Work on that skill" I patted him on the back *And come back anytime* he put his two paws back on the ground turning to me, licking my face - he was that tall - and running away.

I waved back, watching his form retreating. Pivoting towards the idiots "Now, questions I know they're in your brains"

"You raised a bear cub?" Charlie asked "I found him cuddling next to his mother, who was dying. He looked up at me, as his mother softly growled. Then his mother saw the love I immediately felt for Jerry, or better known as 'Jamarr', and she told me that if I could love him, then I should take him and raise him. She had one last request for me after she told me to take her son. She asked me to end her torture, so I did"
