Aurora heard Connor speak. Not a big deal? WHat was he talking about?
"Connor, you don't look well." Well that was an understatement. "Don't you want me to call the police?" Aurora suddenly realized what she was asking.
"Oh... Ooooh... Ok." She looked around. She swiftly hung up, pocketed the phone, and picked him up.
Aurora ducked behind the building into an alleyway and started looking for a new route home. She skirted along through the shadows swiftly and silently, pausing out of sight whenever she heard a noise.

Katra's grip on his hand was impressive. It was agonizing, that much he knew. His heart burned for her, but what could he do besides wait it out with her? Perhaps speaking would soothe her.
"It's a good thing I showed up," he said, stroking the back of her tensed hand with her thumb. "Something... some feeling told me that I needed to come to you. To help you." He brushed the hair away from her face. "I have never felt it before but... I have been told that the feeling is referred to as the sixth sense. Werewolves only share it with their pack and..." he cleared his throat, "most strongly with their mates.
***
"What... are you doing?" Connor groaned. How had this girl managed to pick him up? Connor certainly was not heavy, but surely she was smaller than him. He'd never really sized her up but... still. Was she... one of them? Aw hell. He didn't care anymore. She wasn't molesting him or trying to kill him, so she was safe in his book.

Jeff had to think about this. "I will help, but you can't let Connor know that I know you or that I am a were. I think I can hide my were...ness."

Kat didn't know how to reply. She tried speaking again but only a few words were audible, "...want...be...you..." She squeezed his hand just a little tighter to emphisise her point. She tried smiling at him but another shot of pain caused her smile to become a grimise.

"Right, tell the freaked out werewolf hunter about all the crazy were madness going on, yes, that was definately on top of my list of things to do." She kissed Jeff on the cheek. "Okay, first thing you should know: subtlty. That child is so crazy open to the power of suggestion and reverse psychology and all that stuff. You go after him right out, he will run faster than he probably did earlier."

Aurora found herself back on campus before she knew it. Thre wasn't many people running around... which always helps. When she got back onto campus she had to find an alternative way into the building... which was very, very alternative. Really didn't help that she lived on the fourth floor and there was next to no ground cover around the building.
It was tricky. It was very tricky. But somehow she managed it. Luckily her roommate was out. It was probably the only thing she could count on around here. Her roommate would be gone all day, and magically reappear sometime late at night in her bed.
She set Connor down on the lower bunk and quickly began to rummage through her shelves. Where was the d**** first aid kit? She finally found it and pulled out the bandages.
She also pulled out her first aid book and walked over to Connor.
"What hurts exactly?"

Jeff took this information and stored it in the back of his head to use for later. "Thank you,...uh..." After all of this he had forgotten to get her name.

"Luka." She giggled. "I think its your turn now. Of course, I'll understand if you don't quite have anything yet."

"Well the poor boy talks in his sleep. I always hear him talk about killing the basterds that killed his family. I would be one to be worried about him, especially if it was indeed a were that killed his family." Jeff had only heard Connor speak in his sleep too many times.

"Were's killed his parents when he was 12." Luka let out a small sob. "He told me the first...while he...last night."

"What doesn't?" would have been a better question. All the same, Connor tried to cooperate.
"Well, this would be a good place to start," he recommended, holding up his bloodied hand. It would need stitches most likely, but bandages would be a good place to start. His ribs... well, they were probably bruised but he didn't know what she could do about that.

Though a smile tugged at his lips, Curtis resisted it. He noticed as he looked down at his hand that he was still in wolf form. He was so accustomed to the form that he often failed to recall that he was in it.
Curtis morphed slowly, thankful that he had learned long ago to wear loose clothing in case of transformation emergencies. His shirt had stretched, and yes, his jeans were coming apart in places, but at least he still had clothes.
Comfort... she still needed comfort.
"I know this is strange, a teacher suggesting this to a student, but... maybe you'd like to live with me instead? I'm afraid my home is smaller than this but... it is in the woods. A perfect place for people like us."

Kat thought about his offer. She had never had a real relationship with anyone before, and now he was talking about moving in together. She looked up at his now human face and into his eyes. She thought about how that hunter now knew where she lived now. She didn't think living here was a good idea now. "Well...I need...somewhere...since he...knows where I...live now..."

Jeff put his arms around her and held her. "It's alright, I'm sorry."

She hugged him back. "Its okay. Its not your fault. Hey, I just got a wonderful idea. You were able to find my room...do you think you could find his?"
