Suddenly my eyes snapped open "Help" I whispered knowing it was my last chance before..........my thoughts ceased and I blacked out.

"Pepper? Oh God, Pepper? What's wrong? Mai, help." Pepper's breathing was shallow, her face a deadly white. "What's going on?"

i hardly had time to register what was going on before one of the shapeshifters, Pepper, i thought, was on the floor and beaten. i wiped the stinging pain on my cheek, and my hand became smothered in blood. these people were REAL shapeshifters, not just witches specialising in glamours. it suddenly struck me that it was becase of me that Pepper was on the ground. i bent down on the ground and waded into the crowd surrounding her.
at that time i became even more sorry that my powers were so limited, i was not only nable to fight very well but didn't have any knowledge of healing either.
"oh my god... i-i'm so sorry." i stammered.
"it's not your fault, i don't know what got into her."one of the other shapeshifters, Jessy, said.
(((maybe Pep's got rabies!!)))

I heard Jessy's shout, and had no choice but to leave Doc's cyrptic words for now. I began shoving my way through the crowd, but as always when something bad had happened, everyone wanted to look- i couldnt get through,
"Move, please." I was saying as i pushed, "Please, get out of the way, move... excuse me..." But i knew this wasn fast enough. "MOVE!" I cried, and like the red sea, the crowd parted, whether they wanted to or not. I ran to the three girls, crouching beside Pepper,
"What happened, Jess?" I asked, already checking Peps vitals.
"She attacked us! She didnt have a clue who we were!"
"Well thats not good." I stated the obvious. Some of the others had gathered up too, and i scooped Pepper into my arms, saying, "Guys, research spells... and someone find Karen. This stinks of her- i dont know why she'd do it, but it does." I gave Doc a significant look, "Bring her to me unharmed."
"Mai..." Josh began.
"Help them get her." I asked of him, "You're a wicked fighter even without mystical strength. Please guys... i dont know how long we have."

"I'll get her. You bet I'll get her." With a furious roar, Rory and I bounded out into the night. I tried to pick up a scent but no luck. It occured to me that I should have been the one looking stuff up, but I wasn't going to do that now. I was going to get Karen. Metal rippled along my fur, protecting me. With another roar I stalked away towards the graveyards.
(((I'm guessing I have my amour by now.)))

I heard the pandemonium from afar. Served that little brat right for attacking me. That would teach them. Nobody tried to hurt me. Not that I couldn't heal myself, I just prefered attacking. And now only I could remove the parasite. How fun!

Then I heard it. A laugh, caught by the wind, drifted to my ears. The laugh was edged with pure evil. Karen. She was going to pay for what she had done, and for that laugh.

i, stunned as i was, spoke the girl standing over Pepper's body, Maya, "i didn't know this would happen, i don't know what to do, i can't do anything! i think i should leave".
Maya simply said without looking at me"no, it would have happened anyway, and at the moment the only one who can give us the real reason is right here unconcious. then we'll find out what happened." it was clear that she needed concentration more than anything.
i looked around for some way to help. well, there really was only one thing i could do right, although i did not look foreward to seeing the chilling dark witch again. she was evil, BLACK. anyone could see that. i went to a corner free of people, and explained to the gang what i was going to do.
"i'm going to do a little astral projection, it'll help me find the witch a lot quicker. while i'm out of my body i won't be really be there...obviously...err don't bother to talk to me. So..."
i crossed my legs and made myself as comfortable as anyone could possibly be while sitting on a hard, crummy floor. candles would have helped my projection, but i had not intention of troubling anyone even more. i hadn't mentioned that in astral form even though nothing physical could hurt me, supernatural forces could. i closed my eyes and left the crowds.

"Someone watch over her body." I ordered, leaving with the unconscious Pepper. "I'm taking her to mine- Doc?"
"Coming." He said. He looked fleetingly after the karen-hunting party, but opened the car door for me, and then jumped in himself. "To yours?"
"Yup." I replied.
