Hunted 2 *Not accepting*

DOMI

What was wrong with tarrion? he seemed nervous. The worse case scenarios ran through my head, did kyle escape, did tarrion decide it was best to let him have me, did he decide that sense i wasn't pure he didn't want me? Shut up, he loves you and would never do that. He smiled down at me, i took his hands and we walked away from the group. When we entered the trees he stopped. I smiled up at him but he still seemed worried.
"What's wrong tarrion?" I wondered if this had to do with the question he was talking about earlier... I hoped so, the anxiety was killing me.
"There's something i want to ask you..." My heart began to thump.

~Annie May~

I growled, wanting to hear this. I had given him the ring, so I wanted to see if it fit her. I snuck to the edge of the tent, listening. I could hear the fear in Tar's voice, and I knew he would be sweating bullets. I smiled as Saph came over, but I waved her away, not wanting to get caught. I put my hand to my mouth and listened as he cleared his throat...again.

*I hope this is OK.*

"Domi, I love you more than anything, and I would really like to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm not sure how to say this, but..." he paused. It sounded like a break up line to me, but who was I to judge it. "Domi...will..." he stopped again.

"What is it Tar?" she asked impatiently. He sighed yet again, nervous as I presumed.

"Will you marry me Domi?" he said, spitting it all out at once, but it was slow enough to understand. I heard her gasp, and I knew he would be sliding the ring on her finger right then.

"I'm not sure what to say," she said, obviously crying. Say yes! I thought to myself.

TARRION

I fingered the ring nervously, wrapping my fingers around it and pulling it out. Domi couldn't see it, and for some reason that gave me some comfort. "Domi, I love you more than anything, and I would really like to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm not sure how to say this, but..." I paused, biting down on my lip. How exactly did I go about this? Did I get down on one knee? Should I put the ring on before or after I asked the question? How the heck did I ask the question?

"What is it Tar?" she asked, sounding slightly impatient. Or maybe just anxious, I couldn't tell which at the moment. I was much too busy focusing on not passing out and hiding my trembling.

Oh, just get down on one knee. It'll be cute. I did just that, and grabbed Domi's hand, smiling nervously. "Will you marry me Domi?" I asked quickly, slipping the ring onto her finger. I swallowed hard.

"I'm not sure what to say." She was tearing up. Happy tears? Oh good lord, please let them be happy tears...

DOMI

My heart was racing, my breathing wasn't steady, my legs felt like jelly, and i loved it. I looked between the ring and tarr's face. If my heart beat any faster it would splatter out of my chest. His face grew to concern, tears rolling down my checks. I looked up at him, mouth agape.
"Domi...?" He asked. I flung myself at him and wrapped my arms around him, burying my face in the crook of his neck.
"YES!" I screamed. He would be mine forever, no one could take him from me, and no one could take me from him. He wrapped his arms around me. I sobbed into his neck, "I'm so happy!" He chuckled happily rocking back and forth.

~Annie May~

"Yay!" I screamed, then covered my mouth, realizing that I was supposed to be hidden. Everyone else knew what that meant, and they all smiled, clapping as Tar and Domi came from the trees, looking at me. I smiled sheepishly and hugged Domi.

"I hope you like the ring," I whispered. I remembered the whole guilt trip Tarrion had gone through before he realized it was dangerous to say no to me at the moment. Now, time to beat the crap out of Kyle! I was literally jumping up and down, ready for the real fun. I knew Tar punched hard, but I was sure I could punch harder, no matter what he said. I wanted to break Kyle's nose, and I wanted to be the first to do it!

"Kyle?" I asked Tar in a pleading tone. He laughed, and so did Domi. "Please?" I looked over at him. He was confused about why I was talking about him.

TARRION

"In a bit. I just really need to kiss my girl first, kay?" I asked, beaming and at the same time, willing myself not to start blubbering like a baby.

Annie groaned, but I turned my head and kissed Domi, pulling her into me. She said yes! She said the figgen' Y word! I was screaming with joy on the inside, but I was a little busy kissing to actually make any sound come out. I pulled her closer to me than I thought possible at first.

I could feel her heart beating wildly against her chest. Possibly faster than my own, if that was possible. I wanted to pull her closer, but she was as close as close could get. Which just made me want to even more... All I could do was tighten my grip and let two tears roll down my cheek.

Yes, yes, yes....she said YES! My heart started to beat faster, a feat I had assumed to be impossible a few seconds ago. Her heart was keeping pace. Her heartbeat had to be the most ridiculously, perfectly beautiful thing in the whole danged world.

DOMI

I wrapped my arms around Tarrions neck, if we were any closer we would be the same person. Aren't you one person, falling in love is finding your other half and becoming a whole. I opened my mouth slightly, letting his tongue in. It was amazing what a simple gesture could make my body feel. I felt loved. This island was my personal heaven. To think, my first day here all i wanted to do was keep tarrion away from me, now i wanted him closer. I heard Annie groan impatiently. I pulled away reluctantly. I looked over at kyle, then back up at tarrion.
"Looks like you have a score to settle." I sighed, letting him go.

KYLE

I was so scared i wanted to crap myself. I had never been in this position. I was helpless, is this how i made domi feel? How i had made everyone feel? I was majorly disappointed with myself. How could one person feel so much fear? I still couldn't find the strength to make any noise.

~Annie May~

How could I be so happy to get even with someone for hurting me? I wasn't violent, yet I found myself wanting to see his blood all over the ground. I was simply shocked at myself. I couldn't do it like I thought I could. Tar asked if Domi wanted to take a swing first, but she shook her head, eyes wide. I knew she couldn't hurt anyone. The same way I realized I couldn't. Tar clenched his hand into a fist, taking a moment, the swinging. I heard a loud crack, and some of the others broke into smiles. I flinched. He got the first swing. Now it was my turn.

All of my anger melted away. All I ever wanted sense he got here was for him to know how we had felt when he hurt us. It was clear to me that he was in pain. Maybe not as near death as I was, but in pain enough that he felt it. I could see it in his eyes. I stood there, not moving a muscle. I wanted to slap someone, but it was me I wanted to slap.

You knew you couldn't do this, idiot! Even he knew it. You're not as strong as you think, back away now before you hurt yourself trying to be a dream. I listened to myself, running off into the dark forest before the tears became too noticeable. I didn't care where I ran off to, I just needed to go somewhere to clear my head.

Damon

How interesting. Maybe Sam had overestimated the girl Annie May. I didn't feel to into taking pictures, so I took very few of it all. It looked like Dominique and Tarrion were now engaged. How sweet. I just hoped the beasts would get them first.

TARRION

I balled my hand into a fist, glaring at Kyle. Dang, the guy looked absolutely terrified. For a second I almost felt sorry for him, but that was only for a second and it was only almost. "This is for her," I hissed, too lowly for anybody else to hear before slugging him in the jaw. I flinched at a loud crack before smirking.

I backed up, shooting a concerned glance at Annie. She just stood there for a few minutes before darting into the trees. Again. "Annie!" I called, already knowing she wouldn't be back. Her and Logan were gone, except Annie had actually been excited for the party.

I walked over to Domi. "Do we go look for her, or do we let her cool off first?" I asked.

Before she could answer, we heard that familar low snarl in the distance. The snarl that had sent shivers down our spines in the beginning. They were back. Everybody heard it, all of their heads shot in the direction of the forest. My hand instinctively went to my back pocket, my gun.

"Logan's out there," Gemma whispered, almost too quietly to hear.

"Which is why we're going in after him. And Annie," I announced. Man I really needed to stop making everybody's descisions for them... "Grab some sort of weapon from the kit and we'll go." You just did it again you loser. Then again, we did have to go after Logan and Annie. They had no weapons, and Annie was hurt.

SAMANTHA

I finally forced myself from the monitor room, thoughts running through my mind. I needed Damon back here soon, I had things I wanted to look up on. I officially hated Tarrion. He was sweet and sensative, and at the same time he could be a brute. He confused me.

Kyle on the other hand... I liked him. He was arrogant and he didn't know when to quit. Kid sorta reminded me of myself.

I grinned, suddenly realizing the perfect way to get on Kyle's good side and completely break Tarrion down to nothing. I was going to help Kyle get Domi, and I knew just how to do it.

How about, Forsakin, I find you first and thats when we do the plot.

Wren

This time, they weren't leaving me behind. I was going to go help find Annie. I already had a dagger... I didn't need to wait up for them, did I? And Logan was out there- I squeezed my eyes shut at the thought. When no-one was watching- they were all getting prepared- I snuck out of the camp.

I followed Annie's tracks until they disappeared. Where... suddenly, I heard footsteps. Annie...?

KYLE

That wimp was stronger then i thought, he broke my god darn jaw! I was sitting there sputtering in pain, my god darn jaw! He was just making my blood boil more. Now i was going to get Dom, and hurt her right in front of him, I'd break his legs and arms, then after he's suffered, I'd take that blasted gun and blast his brains out. I heard a low snarl, and shuddered, those beast things were back. I was the only survivor of my group. I smiled at the memory of the last guy standing between my and the beast, begging for help. I felt bad for leaving him there, but i wasn't getting myself hurt. Always had to watch out for number one. They all took off after the chick who wouldn't hurt me.

DOMI

Tarrion handed me a butcher knife. I took it reluctantly, i wasn't planning on using it. Not unless i absolutely had to. I held his hand and stood right beside him. The beasts haunted my memory, this was going to be, terrible, frightening,horrifying. I glanced over at kyle, and almost felt bad. No i did feel bad. Do onto others as you would want done unto you. I would help him later, fix his jaw or something. I didn't enjoy being in pain, and neither would he.

Wren

"Annie?" I called out. My voice echoed through the forest, which was slightly surprising and unnerving. Maybe I should have waited for- no, I couldn't have.

The footsteps went silent as I called out her name. I rushed forward. "Annie?" I called again.

>That would be fine<

~Annie May~

"Annie!" I heard someone call. I froze. It sounded so much like my sister. "Annie!" she called again. I felt the tears come faster, and I wiped them away. "Annie!" she called one more time. I stood up.

"Over here," I called. I was probably just helusenating. Wren came running throught the trees and over to me. It was just her, but she was holding a knife. I eyed it, then heard why. A low growl came from behind me, and then a snarl. I felt lightheaded as Wren hugged me, then let go at the sound of the beast. I saw her rock back and hit the ground, then I did. I tried like before to open my eyes, but I couldn't feel anything.

Saphire
"Go look for Annie and Logan I'll keep an eye on the stupid head." I said coolly. "But..." Tarrion started but I gave him a look. "Go." I said pointing.

TARRION

I sighed loudly. "Be careful." Shooting a last glare at Kyle, I started towrads the forest, clinging tightly to Domi's hand. Wren had run in already, but she had a weapon and was capable. I was more worried about the weaponless Annie and Logan...

There was another low snarling noise in the distance followed by a hig-pitched yelp. I shuddered and pulled Domi closer, glancing back at the others. Matt nodded towards our right, seeming sure enough of himself. We followed him closely, jumping at every twig that snapped under our own feet.

Shalo shrieked and I looked upwards. She was circling in slow circles above the trees, watching for something I couldn't be sure about. It only made me feel unnerved, like there was something at work that only Shalo could see. I took a deep breath and kept walking.
