Spider-Girl

Chapter 47: Camping in the woods

                Wynonna wraps herself in a web throw jacket, keeping herself warm as she sits at the fire with a buttload of vampires and wolves. Jacob is the one who gathered up the firewood for the fire, for more warmth for Wyn, the one human here.

          Benjamin makes a flame sprout on his finger as Peter and Charlotte sit on the log beside Wyn. Jasper sits on the log beside them as Benjamin lights the fire with his finger, literally.

        "That's what I'm talkin' about," Jacob muses. "A little pre-battle bonfire. Telling war stories." He has a seat beside Benjamin and looks across the fire, looming at the other vampires. "Or just stand there like freakin' statues."

           Garrett is suddenly spun around and sitting at the fire, on the other side of Charlotte. "Make any American battle. I was there."

          Jacob ponders for a moment. "Littlr Bighorn."

          "I came this close to biting Custer," Garrett says as he pinchws his fingers together. "But the Indians got him first."

          "Try Oleg's assault on Constantinople," Kate says as she sits next to Garrett. "He didn't win that one on his own."

         "If you're talking battles, you're talking the Eleven Years' War," an Irish vampire named Liam says as he joins them. "No one does rebellion like the Irish."

         "You lost three Eleven Years' Battle," Garrett points out.

        "Aye," Liam replies. "But it was one hell of a rebellion."

         "When we ruled, everything came to us," Vladimir says as everyone gathers around the fire. "Prey, diplomats, favor seekers. Such as our power. But we never out on white hard and called ourselves saints."

         "We were honest about what we were," Stefan adds.

         "We sat still for a very long time," Vladimir says. "We didn't notice we were beginning to petrify."

          "Perhaps the Volturi did us a favor when they burned our castles," Stefan says.

            Wynonna walks across the fire, Vladimir watching each step of the web wrapped human. She sits beside Jasper and she uses her webs to wrap him up, too. Jasper grins as he leans into her. Peter and Charlotte smile from across the fire. They're glad Jasper found real love, instead of someone like Maria.

             Wynonna unwraps herself and Jasper. She's in a skin tight black long sleeved shirt, some thick leggings with some brown, knee-high boots, and a navy green parka jacket. Vladimir literally licks his lips and Eleazar moves to stand in the way as Jasper and Wyn go to their tent to lay for the night.
