Just Another Victim

Have you ever fainted? It's different than sleeping. There's no dreams, no rest, no feeling refreshed. It's just a quick here-to-there. And that's exactly what Azure felt.

Azure Aura woke up with a jolt and a scream. But she was quickly silenced by the feeling of a hoof on her muzzle. Her eyes as big as they could get, she looked at The hoof on her face, she then followed the arm up to see her Coltfriend, Silver Raindrop, smile at her, and remove his hoof. Soon, coming into view, was Cherry Blossom, Cloudy, and Sunset Snow. Before she could say anything to them, she felt a jolt of pain go to her back, left leg.

"OW!" She yelled, looking over at where the jolt came from. She saw a black and white zebra pouring water over her leg. She could make it distinct holes in her leg, to which the zebra was attending to.

"W-what in Celestia happened?" Azure said, slurring somewhat. "And w-why is there holes in my leg?'

"Quit your whining, miss Azure. For you I am trying to find the cure." The zebra says.

"Zecora heard you, and she came over and stopped that wolf from killing you." Silver tells her, running his hoof through her mane. Azure looks over at Zecora and sees her pick up a silver butter knife.

"Hold this, Azure, and we'll see. What the answer to my question may be." Zecora says, with the knife held by her teeth.

"Umm, okay." Azure replies, unsure of she should. But she did, she stuck out her hoof for Zecora to put the knife on.

Zecora reached over and placed the knife on Azure's hoof.

"AH! SHIT!" She yells when the knife gets placed on her hoof. The knife burned perfusly and even caused some steam to come from her hoof. She tossed the knife away from her.

"What the hell!" Azure yells, but looking over at her friends, she sees them all sad.

"From a lycan, miss Azure, you where surely bit. And I'm afraid, that there is no cure for it." Zecora hangs her head. "I'm afraid cleaning this will do nothing." She continues, then wraps the wound.

"Azure..." Sunset says, walking over to her. "Your part wolf now. That's pretty fuckin cool." He states.

"What!?" Azure yells, fear in her voice. "What the hell is a lycan!? What do you mean 'part wolf'!?"

"Calm down darlin' no need to get worked up." Cherry tells her, walking over to stand next to Silver.

Only now did Azure realize that she is laying on her back, on a bed. She looks to her right and sees a wall, then looks back towards her friends.

"Where are we?" She asks.

"In my cave, which you dared to enter. This is my residence, right in the center." Zecora responds.

"Wait." Cloudy tells Zecora. "I thought you lived in a tree."

"That is merely my brewing station, and I would leave it without hesitation." Zecora tells her. Only getting a 'huh' as a response.

"I most apologize, for my guard. He has one job, and when worked up, it can be quite hard." Zecora speaks again.

"What do you mean your 'guard'?" Sunset asks.

"Darlin' would you make yourself known?" Zecora yells a phrase completely out of character, but got a response. The clop of hooves echoing towards them.

"This is my guard, tamer." Zecora tells the teens in her home. Azure tries to sit up, but Zecora stops her. She has to crane her neck to see the pony walk into the room. Her friends turn to look. A brown coated and black maned stallion walked in. His Cutie Mark a whip.

"H-hi." He says, awkwardly. "I'm sorry.... Miss...." He says.

"You better b-"

"Silver!" Azure yells, cutting him off. "It's alright." She tells Tamer.

"Tamer, please, show to me, what the ability of a lycan may be." Zecora tells him.

With a nod he closes his eyes, concentrating. Then, without warning, he howled. His short brown coat grew longer and thicker. With a grin, his teeth grew sharper and longer. His hooves, grew claws, five of them. His tail turned from a silky pony tail, too a gruff wolf one.

With a devious smile, he looked at the group.

"I am Tamer the Lycan. And you, Azure, are my mate." And with that comment, a scared Azure and an angry group of friends, started to yell at him. To much was going on and Tamer was unable to tell what they all say.

"That is enough!" Zecora yells over them all. "Tamer, wait outside!" Zecora yelled, breaking her rhyme speak.

"Azure is mine!" Silver yells at Zecora, getting four voices to hum an agreement.

"As much as you wish that too be true, lycans choose who. They dicide by a bite. And that bite chooses the mate for many a night." Zecora tells them.

"What if I decide not to." Azure protests.

"He will follow you, and he will find his way to you." Zecora responds. "Now, let's leave. This is a cave, it's getting hard to breath." Zecora lied. As the others walk out, Zecora helps Azure up and out.

"Azure." Zecora says sadly. "I'm sorry for making you just another victim."

"We must see Luna on this dreaded nightmare night. Because help you with her magic, she just might." Zecora tells the group.

"Let's go!" Silver and Sunny say in unison.

"Only Tamer and Azure must come. For Luna must not know you know what has been done." Zecora says.

"What?!" Silver yells. "She's my marefriend!"

"She's my mate!" Tamer retaliates, adding a growl to his words, as he hasn't changed back yet.

"Boys!" Cloudy yells. "Listen to Zecora. She's obviously delt with this kind of thing before."

"Fine!" Tamer and Silver yell.

"Let's go and watch a movie guys." Cherry says to Sunset and Silver.

"Alright!" Sunset yells.

"Azure." Silver starts. He turns to her. And before he can say something else he feels lips on his. Hearing a growl from Tamer, they disappear.

"Just one." Azure tells him, winking. "Don't worry, nothing will happen." She reasures him.

"You sure?" Silver protests.

"Yes, I'm sure, now you guys go have fun. And don't let Cherry and Cloudy get too carried away during that movie." She says, winking again.

"Alright. Nother kiss?" He pushes.

"Nope, remember? That privilege was taken away. Now go! Have fun!" She pushes him along.

"Okay, okay. Bye"

"Bye."
