Blackfeather Woods I just needed a little off the top.

ugh! spineless! tegan was not spineless! he was being reasonable! he had just seen his own, pitiful life flash before his eyes and he was being reasonable!!! 

of course screech wouldn't bring him to her. of course he wouldn't. tegan wanted to scream, but and overwhelming round of dizziness plagued him again. he slurred something, probably a profanity, and then stood with his lip caught on his fang.

"i need to find her," he said, voice thick, his gaze narrowed on screech, muscles tensing. but this was his out. tegan was given an out. he needed to leave.

"fuck you," he spat, as clearly as he could. and then, getting to his feet, tegan turned and left, maybe. he could only hope he was headed in the right direction. as screech was swallowed by the woods behind him, tegan pushed forwards, even as he stumbled over roots and underbrush, tegan escaped. tegan escaped the forest, unscathed. 

well, his pupils were different sizes but this was a problem for another day.
