Revival
Moira scooped up Maggie on her back and they were off again. Even though the patrols contained Gangrel, they were mostly the same right-wing survivalist freepers that comprised the bulk of the Redwatch talent pool. They were simply not able to keep up, and their quarry were seasoned in the ways of not only moving without trace, but of leaving false trails.
Soon they were at the edge of Robyn's woods, and their pursuers were scratching their heads clear on the other side of the Ridge. Dawn was still an hour away. Plenty of time to settle in.
Maggie could walk on her own, and Moira was still carrying Annie. Both were naked and covered in blood. "These woods are... wrong," she said. "I keep wanting to turn around."
Mist covered the forest, and an ill wind howled. Leaves blew in all directions. Liam's ward key kept them on the right path, but Robyn had definitely turned up the spook factor on her warding. The very earth bristled at their approach. But on they pressed.
All at once, they were out of the trees, and on to the property. The wind was quiet and the sky was clear. The campfire burned in the distance, and the early risers had a pot of coffee on the coals. Robyn stood in the bay window of her living room, silhouetted in the light of a television. She merely watched, with a mug in her hand. She had a blanket draped over her head, and Liam couldn't make out her expression.
Moira wondered whether it would be best for the villagers to see her as a werewolf, or as a naked local celebrity, and opted for the latter.
