Chapter ten
(Jenna’s P.O.V)
I heard breathing, out in the woods, my hearing picked it up easily out of all the sounds, this breathing wasn’t right though, not a regular animal, but human, it was ragged, and I could hear whimpering
“Help” it whispered, as if it was too tired to do anything else
I shifted and broke into a run for the second time today, only this time it was to find and help whatever was calling for her
She ran through the forest as the sound of breathing got louder the closer she got
She heard footsteps behind her, one set, she knew it was Drake
She skidded to a stop and shifted as she caught sight of the injured boy in the middle of this clearing
She ran at inhuman speed to the boy, stopping at his side
“what happened to you?” she asked, immediately going into a strange “doctor” mode as she looked at his deep claw wound
“a-a ti-“ he stopped to cough, blood ran down his chin
“a tiger, it- it was a man..b-but then all of the sudden, he changed and attacked me, I h-have been laying h-here f-for hours” he coughed up more blood, his body was trying to heal itself, but his bones were broken and his wound was deep
She ripped the cloth from her jeans and wrapped it around his stomach wound, blood ran down his sides and he coughed up more blood
Drake was standing there, watching as I took charge and looking for a sign of another attack
“It’s alright now; do you have any parents here? Anyone that might be looking for you?” I asked him
He shook his head “m-my family disappeared two months ago” he whispered
