CHAPTER 2

Dr. Sands and Summer are already waiting at the hospital doors with a gurney. I had linked them both as we were headed back this way. It has taken us longer than usual because we don't want to jar the stranger too much without knowing what kind of injury he has. By the looks of the gash on the side of his head, it looks like someone was trying to kill the guy. It doesn't look as though there are other injuries, but one can never be too sure.

I had wrapped a shirt around the wound to staunch the blood flow, but his pulse is getting weaker. He is our only chance to find out who they are exactly and why they are here.

Grabbing his face, I give him what he wants, but only a brief one,

and then I pull away, "Down boy, we still have work to do!" I turn and start walking away.

He growls playfully, "Do I look like a dog to you?"

I spin back around with a lifted brow, "You did not just ask me that!"

"Yeah, I did! I ain't no dog..." His sentence dies off once he finally catches himself, "I'm a wolf...there's a difference!" He huffs and stomps past me, sulking playfully.
