The Garden of Death

[Creedner]

"It is all ok. We will find him again." Creedner brushed back Raven's hair and then sat down next to her. He placed his arm around her and brought her head to her shoulder.  

[Raven_Spero]

Raven relaxed on Creedner's shoulder and placed her hand ontop of his at her waist. She let the silence of the stars fall between them, with only the sound of crickets to keep it at bay. She broke the quiet with only a whisper. Dallas... this may sound really strange, but I think I'm falling in love with you. She had to tell him, it was eating her heart not to.  

[Creedner]

Creedner rubs his head on Raven's and chuckles. "I think I am falling in love with u too."  

[Raven_Spero]

She smiled and interlaced her fingers with his. She let the quiet wash over her. She felt a lot better now. She snuggled herself into Creedner's shoulder.  

[Creedner]

Creedner lets Raven's head rest on his shoulder as he begins to close his eyes. He begins to reach his hand up to her forehead when his hand suddenly clinches. Creedner feels the monster inside trying to come out. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out the vile to see it is empty. "Oh no!"  

[Raven_Spero]

Creedner, what's wrong? Raven wasn't exactly happy about being jostled from her comfortable position. What do you need me to do? Raven asked looking atthe empy vial in his hand.  

[Creedner]

Creedner pushes Raven away, knocking her on the ground. "If you want to do something, get AWAY!!! AAHHHH!" Creedner collapses to the ground curling into a ball. He looks up to see his jacket sitting on the back of the bench. He then looks over to Raven and screams.  

[Raven_Spero]

Raven hits the ground with a loud thud. She really wasn't quite sure what to do. She tried to get up, but she had hit the ground so hard, it was difficult to get up again. She looked at Creedner just as he looked sat his jacket. The Vial!!! Raven yelled. She reached for his jacket and began searching all his pockets untill she found another full one. DALLAS!!! she screamed. She tried to get up as she opened the vial and held it out to Creedner. She could see that she was loosing him, and fast. I hope this works! she said to herself as she limped over to Creedner. He tried to push her away but she managed to gt the liquid into his mouth anyway. With one strong shove, he pushed her away, the empty vial falling and shattering on the ground and Raven falling backwards. She hit her head on the bench. Please be okay, she whimpered as she blacked out.  

[Creedner]

Creedner's body twitched on the ground for a few moments before stopping and going limp. He opened his eyes and looked over to see Raven lying on the ground. "I am sorry my love." Creedner rubbed the side of her cheek, trying to wake Raven up.  

[Raven_Spero]

Raven whimpered as she felt Creedner's fingers gently touching her cheek, though not because of him. Her head was pounding. She tried to get up, but couldn't. She laid back down on the ground. Dallas... what happened? she whispered, putting her cold fingers on her forehead.  

[Creedner]

"It is difficult to explain, love." Dallas wraps his arms around Raven and sits her up. "I something that you hear about in legends. I am something that many fear. I have to deal with it every minuet of every day."  

[Raven_Spero]

She looked up at him, resting against his chest. Dallas, tell me honestly, are you a hybrid? Her head was still in pain but it had numbed a little. She wraped her arms over Dallas's as he held her.  

[Creedner]

Creender looked down at Raven and smiled. He sits her down on the bench and slowly backs up looking at the sky. "Whatever you do Raven, don't scream." Dallas closes his eyes and begins take deep breaths. He collapses to the ground and begins to transform.  

[Raven_Spero]

Raven watched, silently as he had asked as Dallas began to transform from the man that she knew to a monster she feared. She clenched one hand around the edge of the bench and clasped the other over her mouth. She was stunned, paralysed really, and didn't know how to react.  

[Creedner]

Dallas rises up from the ground, snarling and breathing deeply. He slowly approaches Raven, who is visibly scared, staring deep into her eyes. Dallas drops down to his knees and lays his head on Raven lap.
