After a while standing there, Roman decides to leave after Peter.

"Roman! It's not safe", you say.

"Fuck that", he says confidently.

He starts walking fastly towards the place where Peter is.

"Wait here", Roman says.

"I'm not going to stay here alone", you say and run after him.

It started raining and the whole place is wet. The water drops from the ceiling. You come up to the place where Peter turned. You look at it for a while. It looks disgusting. You turn to look Roman, who is staring at the darkness.

"Do you see him?", you whisper. Roman has no chance to say anything when black wolf runs next to you, it has beautiful yellow eyes. It's Peter, of course.

"Peter?", Roman asks.

The wolf looks at him and growls.

"I'll just be here", Roman says and backs away.

The wolf growls a little. It clearly trying to tell something.

"Is there a scent?", you ask.

The wolf just starts running away. Roman is about to follow it, but you just grab his arm. You two weren't suppose to follow him.

Then you hear a yelp.

"Peter!", Roman and you shout and run towards the voice.

The wolf is lying on the ground. You and Roman are about to kneel down next to it, but someone yells:

"Stay back!"

Roman pulls you further, when someone starts walking towards you with a gun.

"What is that?", Roman asks, pointing at the arrow on the wolf.

"Ketamine dart", the woman's voice says.

When she walks closer, you notice who she is, Clementine Chasseur.

"Ok, you don't understand. You need to listen", you say walking closer to her.

Clementine walks closer with her gun.

"There is plenty more of it, if you take another step!", she yells.

Roman quickly grabs your arm and puts you behind him, while you walk back.

"Listen to me...", Roman starts.

"Do not attempt eye contact. Keep your hands where I can see them. You girl, come next to him", Clementine says.

You walk next to Roman your hands up. You look at him worried.

"Do not attempt eye contact. I will shoot you", Clementine says.

You both stare at the ground.

"It's not him", Roman says.

Clementine puts her gun on the ground and kneels next to the wolf.

"I said it's not him!", Roman yells.

"How do you know that?", Clementine asks.

"Because...I was with him the last time, the whole night", Roman says.

"You're lying. You have s tell, a wavering tremolo, if you will, in your voice", Clementine says and start putting a muzzle to the wolf.

You feel helpless, you can't really do anything.

"If you hurt him, you're dead, you hear me? You're dead!", you scream, anger boiling inside of you.

Roman puts his hand on your shoulder calmly, but you just shake it off.

"He's fine. If you threaten me again I'll come over there and break your teeth in", Clementine says.

Roman glares at her, but you just chuckle.

"OK, I am sorry, but I'm telling you, you don't know what you're doing right now. It's not Peter", you say.

"We were tracking the Vargulf. That's why we came out here, to get the scent", Roman continues.

"Just how much of what you think you know is what he told you?", Clementine asks.

"If there's another one tonight, it's gonna be your fault. It'll be your fault", Roman says.

"Roman and Y/N, what can be done with few assumptions is done in vain with more. This is not your friend. This is not a person. I know that's hard for you two accept. I believe it is for him too. I believe you came here to find the monster. So did he. Because he can't know that about himself. You can't know that about yourself and continue being a person", Clementine says.

"That's bullshit. That's just bullshit", Roman says, spit flying out if his mouth.

"This is an animal. That is what this is", Clementine says.

Roman starts rising his gaze angrily.

"Again, do not attempt eye contact", Clementine says, when Roman walks closer to her.

"Can't you see I'm trying to help. Why won't you let me help", Roman says.

"Because you don't believe in God", Clementine says.

Clementine takes a pistol and points it at you. You feel the cold shivers go down your spine.

"Please go to your car and leave of your own volition. I'm gonna be really pissed off if you make me shoot your girlfriend", she says.

"I'm not afraid of you", you say.

She sighs and takes a knife. She kneels next to wolf and raises the knife.

"You hurt him and I'll kill you! I swear to god", Roman says, panic and anger in his voice.

Clementine starts putting the knife closer to the wolf's neck.

"OK, just don't hurt him. Just don't hurt him", Roman says helpless.

"Get the hell out of here!", Clementine shouts.

"I'll fucking find you!", Roman yells.

You just stare at Clementine, too upset and angry to leave.

"Come on", Roman says and drags you with him.

"God doesn't want you two to be happy! He wants you to be strong", Clementine shouts behind you.

You and Roman walk together. You don't want to leave. But there isn't nothing you could do right now.

"I fucking hate her", you say quietly.

"We are going to save him", Roman says.

When, you don't know. But you know, that Clementine isn't going to be alive very long.

Little do you know, Olivia is listening in the darkness.
