Irena nodded and Beatrice got up and put her plate in the sink, heading upstairs.
'I guess we could." She agreed.

"We might run to our house to change first, though." Finn and Teagan stood and put their dishes in the sink as well. "Do you want to meet back up by the forest in about thirty minutes?"

"sure." Irena said, and looked towards the stairs.
"Do you have a problem with Bea coming with us?" She asked them.

"No, that's fine." Finn replied. Teagan nodded in agreement, and then the two of them ran off to go change.
About thirty minutes later, as agreed, they showed up to the forest in fresh clothes.

Irena kept herself in her sweatpants and T-shirt, and was waiting for them when they arrived.
"Hey." She said quietly, Beatrice was next to her in athletic shorts and a large T-shirt.
"Don't try to scare Bea, she's freaked out about hanging out in the forest."

Finn and Teagan waved when they arrived, thankfully more awake than before. They were wearing matching t-shirts, thin zip-ups, and jeans. "Oh, c'mon. You'll be fine!" Finn insisted, smiling brightly to reassure Beatrice. He decided to leave out that this was the forest he'd been bitten in, but that werewolf was long gone! He didn't live here anymore, so it didn't matter. The forest was perfectly safe.

Irena smiled and rolled her eyes.
"yeah," she told Beatrice "It isn't so bad honestly, kind of cool, actually."

"And besides, you're safe if you're with us." Finn jerked a thumb into his and Teagan's chests. "Don't forget that you're friends with badass werewolves. Now c'mon." He gestured for the others to follow as he headed into the forest.

Irena followed, Beatrice bringing up the rear, for a long time, only the sound of crunching twigs was audible as well as the song of the birds.

At some point, the twins transformed so they could run around more easily. They jumped over logs and moved things that Irena and Beatrice couldn't get over. Finn caught the faint sound of distant growling and looked up, but Teagan didn't seem to hear it, so he continued on.

Irena followed, constantly reassuring Beatrice everything was fine.
"Nothing will come near us as long as Finn and Teagan are with us." She told her sister and continued on.

Finn was still for a bit, falling to the back of the group, and then suddenly moved forward, ushering Irena and Beatrice forward. Teagan was still bouncing in the front, unaware.

Irena and Beatrice followed Teagan, as he was now in the front.

The growling drew nearer and Teagan finally took notice, spotting how nervous Finn looked. He looked around and came around the side of the group, and suddenly, Finn tackled Irena and Beatrice into the underbrush so they would be hidden. Teagan growled and barked, and then there was disruption outside the bushes. Finn looked very nervous, and he looked down at Irena and Beatrice to beg them to stay put before he jumped out to help Teagan.

Irena denied this and stood up, tumbling out of the bush.
She saw another wolf and she cried out "no! Leave them alone!" At it, before Beatrice came out, a knife in her hand.

"Go away!" Beatrice yelled squeakily as she saw the twins fighting with the wolf.
"Go find someone else to attack!"

Finn looked over his shoulder when he heard Irena and Beatrice, looking terrified, but still trying to protect them. While he was distracted, the larger wolf grabbed him and tossed him aside, seemingly more interested in the humans. Teagan growled and jumped on him, biting down on the back of his neck. Finn dragged himself to his feet and, after hesitating for a moment, did the same. It took a few minutes, but eventually the larger wolf was either injured or sick of dealing with the twins, and they were able to chase him off.

Irena watched the wolf slink away and turned to the twins.
"Transform back, so we can look at the wounds." She said in her motherly voice.
"Now, or we won't be able to treat them and they might get infected." She said in concern.

Finn and Teagan looked at each other and then did as they were told. Finn was shaking badly, and it seemed like he was holding his breath. Teagan looked more irritated than anything. Both were bleeding, but neither appeared to have any injuries that were threatening. Finn closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around himself, trying to calm down.

Beatrice took Finn by the shoulders and sat him down, pulling a first aid kit out of her backpack.
She began to carefully dab a cut on his arm with alcohol and then pressed a band-aid on it, while Irena took care of Teagan's injuries.

Finn had a bite wound that spanned across his neck and shoulder that was pretty bad, but none of his other injuries were major. He still looked very pale, however, and was growing increasingly distant. "I c-can't… breathe…" He whispered, drawing in a sharp, shallow breath. Teagan looked over at him worriedly from where Irena was tending to his minor wounds.

Beatrice gave a look of alarm and then rubbed his shoulders.
"it might be a panic attack, just breathe in, hold it for a couple seconds, then exhale slowly." She told him.

Finn whined softly, but did his best to obey. He drew in a wavering breath, but it hurt his throat and he choked, coughing. This only stressed him out more and he held his throat with one hand, grimacing as he struggled to gasp for breath.

"Hey, hey, Finn. You're alright. That was just a random guy who was mad we were in his territory. He doesn't mean anything. We don't know him." Teagan assured, moving away from Irena to console his brother. He figured this must have something to do with Finn connecting this event to when he was attacked.

Irena came over, wrapping her arms around Finn from behind.
"Yeah, you're okay." She tried to reassure him gently.

It took Finn a few minutes to get his breathing under control, and he still seemed pretty nervous after that. Teagan sat beside him to soothe Finn until he properly calmed down, at which point Finn was completely exhausted. Teagan wrapped an arm around his twin and sighed, letting him rest his head on his shoulder.

"He should be fine… he does this sometimes." Teagan said softly. "I think it kinda messed him up when he was attacked when we were kids. But he can't talk to like, uhh… a therapist or whatever since they're scared of him or something. They don't want to be trapped in a room with a werewolf."

Irena frowned and began crying silently.
"This is so fucked." She whispered.
"Irena, calm down." Beatrice soothed, but Irena jerked away from her.
She took a step back from them, her eyes wide and full of tears.
Then she turned and ran.

Beatrice watched her until she disappeared.
"She is not running from you guys." She told the twins "she cries every time she finds out someone hates you, she usually hides it though."
