Trapped

[Darkness]

(Once again I'm just doing something which I have no idea where is going, all I know is that I wanna keep the mood dark for most of the time.)

Deep inside a forsaken forest a lonely wolf laid inside a rusty car wreck full of holes. Heavy rain fell from the dark night skies in the fog that was as thick as syrup. The wreck was the only shelter the wolf could find, and even though some rain poured in, it was better than the terrible conditions outside.

She was shivering and softly whimpering as she curled up in the backseat trying to stay warm. She could barely see anything outside, only elusive sillhouettes of some trees. She was exhausted and hungry, and her hand was shaking a bit as she looked under the seat for something to eat, without results.

All her senses were heightened and she was growing paranoid. She thought she was all alone in the forest, but she was not certain, maybe someone else was feeling just as terrible at this very moment?  "Is this the end?" she thought to herselves as she looked down and wept a tear that slowly hit the legrest in front of her.

the cave was full of the sounds of the rain outside, serpington lay curled up under and on some fur blankets he had acquired over the years of living in the warm cave. he thought he saw something wove in his old car and decided to grab one of the blankets and check it out. after a short climb down a hidden path he reached the crash and opened the door. "cold?" he smiled finding the wolf and extending a scaled hand the lace monitor offered her warm shelter and food.

[serpington]

"serpington, but not many people know that I'm still out here. i see you found my old car." he smiled handing her the fur off his back. "I've been here for for years now but don't worry, you are free to go any time you wish. if you get tired theres a sort of bed near the back." he said leaning against the closest rock wall in nothing but long pants after lighting a small fire near the wolf.

[serpington]

"i was once a great thief, but during my last job i lost controle of my car and ended up here. i stayed because this place is so calm and tranquil. it has the power to change people for the better" he said looking up at the roof of the cave quietly. "i hope you are able to get your memory back, and if you wish once the rain is over i can lead you back towards the city i came from."

[serpington]

"no, it rains often but theres hours between rains. as for clothes i think there might be something you can wear in the back, I'll go check. so what may i call you?" he asked getting up and heading into the depths of the cave.

[serpington]

"put it this way, fortknocks still hasn't realised i was there ten times over the span of a year. I'm not greedy but those around me needed financial help." he smiled walking back with a pile of clothes. he want over and sat looking at the wall. "and that name sounds nice, bloodfang it sounds like you had an interesting past."

[serpington]

"wether made by blade or not, they are in your past. rest if you will, and try to be who you are naturally rather than the person you once knew as yourself, then you will find the true you." he said hearing her finish getting changed. and the leather wasn't all mine. lost travelers sometimes drop things because they become a hassle or the other reason, so i collect what i find, clean it up and store it in case its needed later."

[serpington]

serpington watched her walk past, once see was asleep he stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave. he sat there watching over bloodfang as if they had known each other for years.

[serpington]

"yes i was here all night, and all day." he chuckled slightly. "looks like you needed a good rest. and i couldn't bring myself to wake you." he looked over at her and smiled at the flattened section of fur she had been laying on. "if you were wondering you were out all night and half of the day, but the rain should start letting up soon."

[serpington]

"you are more than welcome, and help your self to anything you may find. what is mine, is yours." he said calmly standing up. "I'll be back I'm a little while, I'll get us some more food." he walked out of the cave and into the rain leaving bloodfang alone in his home.

[serpington]

serpington found his bow and followed some tracks he located, the tracks lead him to a dear taking shelter under a fallen tree. he quietly drew the bow and muttered a sort of thank you to dear for the sustenance it would provide. an arrow hit the dear in the neck killing it instantly.

he returned to the cave later with roughly cut slices of meat over his shoulder. "I'm back, i hope you didn't go crazy with boredom alone in here." he joked walking past bloodfang and put the slices on a large flat piece of metal over the fire.

[serpington]

"same here, but at least you didn't implant your only means of transport into a tree." serpington joked turning around. "so do you remember much of who you were?" he asked sitting down across from bloodfang still smiling gently while cleaning some blood off of his scales with some spare cloth.

[serpington]

he put the cloth down next to him and looked back towards the cooking meat. "sounds rough. but I'm sure its not as bad as it sounds. so did you find anything of intrest while i was gone?" he said quickly changing the subject.

[serpington]

"everything on that rack has a story behind it. i just can't remember any of them, but feel free to test them if you want, i have no real use for them. and as for the clothes, have what you like, I'm sure theres something you of some one you know would like." the cave grew quieter as the rain slowed to a light sprinkle outside the cave.

[serpington]

"you look beautiful in the sun...." serpington said quietly trying to not let bloodfang hear the complement, embarrassed at his own awkwardness around her.
