All Work, No Play

We got the call from dispatch so we know we are going to be first on scene for once. Usually the locals are called in first, and then they call us feds. Whatever the neighbor seen or heard must have been bad for dispatch to call us directly. So far all we know is we are heading to another preternaturals house. Not sure what kind but I guess we’ll find out when we get there.

We traveled for about 20 minutes headed further east away from civilization out into the farm lands and ranches. We pull off the highway onto a dirt road that seemed to go on forever. Jason is still giving me the silent treatment. Not sure why. If he’s mad about the almost kiss then he shouldn’t be, he’s the one that initiated it in the first place.

By the time we pull up to the old victorian two story house Jason is full on brooding and I’m pissed. If he didn’t want to kiss me then he shouldn’t have tried in the first place. Besides I don’t even know what in the hell he was thinking. It’s not like we’ve gotten along since we met a couple days ago. Why am I even thinking what he was thinking, what in the hell was I thinking? I don’t even like the man all that much. Yeah he’s gorgeous alright. But that doesn’t mean I need to turn into a slut. It’s not like he’s the only hot male to hit on me before. But, then again none of those other males smell as good as he does.

Just as Jason is about to stop the car I see a figure dart from the back of the house into the woods. Before Jason can stop the car I’m out the door giving chase. As I’m about to clear the tree line into the woods I remember all I have is my cricket strapped to my thigh and a dagger at my ankle.

I hike up my dress and pull the cricket. I can’t shoot far with this damn thing so I have to get close and personal. I stop all thoughts and clear my head and focus on catching up to this son of a bitch.

As I’m running through the woods my dress gets caught on everything I pass or duck under or the bottom gets snagged on everything I pass or jump over. Good thing I didn’t pay for this dress because I’d be mighty pissed right about now.

The assailant is nowhere in sight so I stop for just a minute to let my instincts kick in. I stand stock still trying to hear anything. To the right of me a twig snaps so I turn and dart off into that direction. Just up ahead is the silhouette of a man.

I finally get close enough to fire off a shot. I aim and shoot. The figure spins around to face me and I stare in complete and utter shock at the man standing before me.
