The sudden opening of the door made you jump and pull out the .44 that had always been there for you. The scars the weapon had reflected your own but it had never quit as you had. Your finger was on the trigger ready to put a round right in the rabbits brain. You relaxed once you realized it was Judy, everyone seemed to have released held breathes at this except for the rabbit herself. She seemed shocked that you were here right in front of her. The uncomfortable silence lasted until Nick broke it with a suggestion.

"Why don't we talk inside hmm?"

"Yeah, um sorry Judy. Just really jumpy from being hunted for years and stuff."

"It's ok?" She walks to Nick and whispers something in his ear, he nods and opens the door to let you inside. You walked in carefully and watchfully. Old habits die hard. You treat the place like it was Vietnam, searching for the booby traps or hiding places. The vibes not fitting well. You let Nick pass you to lead you to Judy's apartment, always checking behind you. Your trigger finger itched and you swore something was watching and waiting. Once he unlocked the door you pulled a chair next to the window with the blinds partially closed. The fear of being sniped from them was present but not knowing if someone would pull up fought and won.

"You don't seem warm and protecting anymore Y/N, what's gotten into you?"

"Survival, haven't been able to take a break in years and my senses feel heightened from it. I treat everywhere as if it were trapped out of the wazoo. Almost lost some limbs, my head and my life from not constantly checking. Do you k ow what it's like to be hunted down?"

"Yes."

"When?"

"We were hunted somewhat in the night howler case." Your eye twitches at the words night howler. You had been heated then as well but didn't escape that time and were tortured for it.

"That is nothing. Try being hunted by assassins, the Government, other nations, gangs, PMCs,average people, police, anti-terrorist groups, terrorist cells, scientists, your friends, your family, even the creatures of the night seemed to hunt me. I have seen things no man should see. A wolf fifteen feet tall that ate whatever it wanted, what goes bump in the night, and other things that shouldn't be known. The continent is filled with inexplicable and explainable things. Hell, the reason I said scientists was because they wanted to either perform tests on me or do other things i wouldn't like to say. I only had help from the wolf and I feel he knew what I felt and was doing. I don't know all I know is someone just pulled up in a van and I'm about to flip." You look over at Nick and his eyes go wide. I hear the door handle jiggle a bit and I instantly am at the door with the end of the barrel resting on a small, cream colored fox. He slowly looks at me with eyes as big as dinner plates.

"Hey pal, put the gun down okay?"

"WHO THE FUCK IS THIS, I DON'T GET A ANSWER I BLOW HIS FUCKING BRAINS OUT!"

"Holy shit! He's a friend Y/N! Don't shoot him damn you!" You look from Nick and to this new guy who could be someone sent after you. You reset your grip on the revolver and don't put it down.

"He could be one of them! Fuck this, I'm out. Thought I might be able to trust you Nick but seems no one can be trusted now." Window, 10 feet, cars though. Check, take it now! You sprint at the window and bust it, you turn and stare at them. Nick is trying to grab you, Judy and the other guy are staring in shock at what's happening. You take a rappelling hook and stick it on the roof, the auto climbing piece instantly taking you up. Once on the roof you take the launcher and fire it at another building to use as a zip line. The roof access door bursts open and you take a quick shot at it, narrowly missing Nick. Fuck, couple inches off. Would've gotten em killed in my run. You waited too long and get tackled. You throw him off using your feet hearing the breath leave his lungs. Then the cream colored one yells something and rushes you. You merely grab him and use his momentum against him by accelerating him right into a recovering Nick. The rabbit is next and she is faster than the other two. She flies at you but she leaves her legs open and you round house sweep them and as she falls give her a boost down with your elbow. By now the other two have gotten up and surround you, Cornering you by the ledge and Judy joins them.

"Calm,*grunts* down Y/N. I wouldn't hurt you," Nick says but you don't believe him. You take a look down and see the highway below you. You smile knowing the truck filled with boxes is about to pass by.

"You guys thought you could catch me? Think again, I always have a trick up my sleeve," you say smirking as you jump backwards. Nick was running down the stairs as you did this, you may have thought they were boxes from the distance but it was really bricks bundled up. You land with a loud thud and the wind is knocked form you, thank goodness no cracking sounds were heard and you were Scot free. You looked behind you and sure enough Nick and Judy were in one car chasing you. They had one of those place able sirens on top while the cream fox is in his van flooring it. You lose your smile when the truck driver slows down. When it almost complete.y stops you hop down and open the side door. The poor driver looks frightened but you merely toss him out and let him eat your dust. You took a brick with you in case a secondary plan was needed. They were gaining on you because of how slow this rig was. They appear right next to you though and Judy aims a rifle. She fires and a dart lands in your neck. Sleeping darts? Too bad they aren't very affective against me, built up a resistance to them. You nudge their car but more darts hit you. Fuck, that's like twenty? Holy shit, they're moose tranquilizers. I'm not dead or knocked out yet? Wtf. I guess I have more resistance than I thought! This doesn't last long as your vision gets blurry and your movements become slow. No,no no! Cmon keep fighting, got to,keep going! You only see a blur of green and brown but it fades to all black in a matter of seconds. You awake to being cuffed and a bright light is above you. Fuck not like the night howler thing again! You fight against your restraints, wrestling with them angrily and out of fear. Tears stream from your face at the amount of pain you know you're going to experience. There they are, the men in masks with tools and needles. They cut and stab, the pain not knocking you out. You knew they did it on purpose just to keep you awake to feel every stab, every slice, every painful liquid injected. You swore it was just to test your pain to,era de but it didn't matter. Only the arching of your back from pain, your screaming and your tears mattered. You swore revenge on them, they would pay for this.

"AAAAAGH, I got in to beat you with your own fucking legs when I get out! FUCk. I'm going to take your fingers and rip your eyes out with them! I'll sue your throat like a straw as I drink your blood! Hmmmmmng, I'll rip your eyes out so you can watch me rip off your faces! Holy fucking shit! I'm gonna rip one of halls organs out and suffocate the rest with all the blood and organs! I'm gonna rip your,AAAA, teeth out and stab ya with them! I'll peel you like a potato with those scalpels! I'll garrote you with your own intestines! I'll use your decapitated heads to beat your families with them!" The threats didn't stop flowing at pain only grew worse though. I sobbed and tried my hardest to break free but I ended up tearing my wrists and ankles open. I eventually let them do whatever they wanted, it was no use fighting.

Nick POV
What the fuck is going on!? Y/N sat there crying and fighting against the titanium handcuffs we had used on him. He was chained on my bed and went wild! He screamed something about night howlers and then cried.

"What is going on with him!?" Judy looks as bewildered as I am and Finnick looks scared.

"This guy is insane! He almost broke those cuffs! I heard them creak and bend just a bit. He keeps fighting and hell get loose!"

"Oh my," Judy falls down into her chair at the sight of Y/N doing this. Is he having an episode of some kind? He then begins shouting the most obscene threats I've ever heard. I and arrested hardcore criminals before but the pure amount of hate, venom and truth to the words he practically screamed was overpowering. I had to sit down and wanted to break down and wail at this. If he got free then we were dead.

"Should we do something?" Judy suggests this but I giver her a good answer.

"If we so much as touch him, say goodbye to your entire arm and what else he can grab."

"I've been around some angry dudes but never have I ever heard this before. What could arouse this much hate? I don't understand, this is supernatural to me," Finnick says, looking ready to bolt. We had taken him to the safest place I could think of and what I thought would be the most comfortable for him, his old training place. Apparently I was majorly wrong. Snap! We're dead. The cuffs had broken and he flew off that table like a blur of motion. He didn't come at us but rather the combat dummies. We watched as he ripped the ballistic jelly arms off of one and beat it with his new weapons. The dummy was bleeding everywhere and internally. Next he ripped off one of the heads and crushed it in one hand. He moved on to the next and ripped it's fake fingers off and stabbed the dummy with them. Another one was torn to shreds using his claws. A fifth was ripped open, it's fake organs spills gout and he used the intestine to strangle not only the fifth dummy but also a sixth. He took a small know and peeled another dummy's layers of gel. A seventh was punched through, as if his fists were a chisel and the dummy rock/ice. I looked at Judy who loaded her dart gun again, shakily though and I was afraid she would miss. Poomp Poomp Poomp Poomp Four shots were in him and he stared to fall. We aired some odd hours for him to awaken again. When he did we prepared for the worst. He looked at us then at the dummies.

"You do that?" We shook our heads no and pointed at him. He looked down and suddenly his teeth bared. He growled in the deepest tone I could imagine. He composed himself and faced us once again.

Ahem, excuse me for my show but I had an episode of something very personal. I would not advise you do this again other wise theses," his hand passed over the obliterated dummies," may become you. When I have such an episode only death can stop me, I disconnect from reality and everything is an enemy that moves. It turns on a kill everything that moves, breathes and speaks in my vicinity. Now, how did I get here? Last time I know what happened I was blacking out in a truck. Please catch me up, I am also sorry about the whole escaping thing. My instincts took over and I was in survival mode. May this not hurt our possible relation ship Mr.?" He looked at Finnick for an answer.

"Names Finnick, umm. Yeah I don't know, you seem a bit crazy pal."

"This was merely instincts I tell you! The whole rampage thing was an episode of the deepest parts of me. Please not focus on this and let's look at right here and right now right?"

"If you wouldn't mind telling us, what was that episode about?"

"Hmm, this is a secret I have had since it happened and have shared it with no one. I suppose it is only right. See, remember when the whole predator lock up thing happened during the night howler outbreak? Well during that I was taken and tortured for being a wolf. It has haunted me and I swore my revenge. Thus my deep rooted anger and hate, it's is a powerful thing. The hate that fuels this part of me. I suggest you never activate it unless in dire need of a death angel, this can be achieved by stabbing me with any kind of needle, cutting em with a scalpel, doing the whole bed cuff thing and by saying, Night howler when I'm already about to kill someone."

"That's deep. We can work through it though as long as we are together Y/N."

"You couldn't help me, it is a personal thing that a lover should not have to deal with. Let us go back to,the apartment and rest. Oh but I do have a question. Who's is now the police chief? I remember killing the last one those many years ago and wonder who his successor was."

"A polar bear named Alfred. He is a good guy and wouldn't mind looking the other way if it helped someone in need. Anyways let's go now." We drove back through Finnick's van. It was dark as midnight and cold as ice. I offered Nick some of my clothes since saw him shivering. He denied the offer but I took off up to my shirt and placed it on him. I caught Finnick looking back a few times and even Judy did. Nick cuddled me and thanked me.
"No problem, just a small repayment of all those lost years and today. There will be more where this came from. On a more serious topic though, I have changed Nick. I'm not so happy and confident as I was in the past. I have grown cold and calculating so don't expect me to be warm and loving all the time. It is the price I pay for surviving."

"I'll get used to it, that's love isn't it? Getting over the obstacles together?"

"Yes but some roads are better traveled alone."

"Yet others need more than one, it is a case by case basis so why worry now when we have free time?"

"Sorry, just doing my thing." We returned home and I let him sleep on the couch. Finnick slept on a bed he had made in the living room and me and Judy slept in our rooms. Y/N had preferred the couch and wished us a good night. I said mine and drifted off into sleep. Fin.
