Fafnir
Fafnir rested his head on his paws tiredly. Not a whiff of Mouse...and listening to the tapes that, that snake had made of his Pack in pain had him worried. He could hear how close she was to breaking. A howl drifted on the night winds and he pricked his ears.
Mouse. Found at Quantico. Tell Taylor Hanson his mate is found...
Fafnir leapt to his feet and howled a reply. Fafnir will tell him! Send word back to Mouse if at all possible that help is on its way!
Will do, wolf, will do.
Fafnir slipped in the door of the motel room and jumped on Taylor's bed. WAKE UP! Mouse is found!
Taylor, Christian, Kirk and Chloe
"WHAT?! WHAT?!" Taylor shot up, then noticed the wolf on his bed.
"Oh crap Faf'... you scared the crap out of me."
"What's going on?" Christian looked up groggily from the floor as Kirk and Chloe began to awaken.
Taylor eyed Fafnir.
"What is it, wolf?"
Fafnir
"They found her!" Fafnir wriggled in excitement, acting like a puppy in his relief and happiness. "She's at some place called Quantico! Any idea where that is?"
Taylor, Kirk, Christian and Chloe
"Ah..." Taylor began to shake his head, glancing at Kirk.
"I know where it is. Virginia," he stood.
"Virginia?" Taylor looked startled.
"Yeah. What?"
"Nothing. Zac was born there."
"Anyway..." Kirk went on, "there's an FBI headquarters there. That must be where she is."
"You know of this place?" Christian squinted up at him.
"Sure do," Kirk nodded, "spent a time evading it. Heard some stories."
Taylor suddenly darted up from from the bed and began to pack his things.
Kirk raised his eyebrows.
"Then let's go," Chloe suddenly said, quietly.
Kirk nodded, "good point."
Fafnir
Quickly the aliens got ready while Fafnir fairly vibrated with impatience. They got on the bikes and Fafnir doggedly kept himself from throwing up as the road sped away behind them. God, he hated this with a passion. But they knew where Mouse was. "I am going to kill them if they've harmed one hair on her head," he growled. "You won't be able to hold me back, and I'd suggest you don't try. You'll end up getting hurt. Now, the name of the bitch who sent the howl out is Bets. We can get into contact with her when we arrive. Mebbe she'll have learnt something else."
Taylor
Taylor chose to ignore the comment. He felt he was ready to his fair share of killing when he got his hand son the bastards.
"You sent off a call to say we're on our way, right?" he called over the noise of the bike.
Fafnir
"Yep." Fafnir concentrated on not giving into the commands of his abused stomach as the wind whistled past his ears. "She should get it in a few hours. She'll probably be waiting for us, if she can slip her leash."
Taylor
"Thank you Fafnir," Taylor nodded sincerely, still keeping his eye on the road.
"We'll catch up with her when we get there and get actual instructions on how to get to her."
He squeezed Fafnir a little between his arms with a grin.
"I love you man."
Mouse and Fafnir
"Yeah, yeah...love you as well," Fafnir grumbled, but smiling slightly. The group continued on into the night on their rescue mission.

In the labs, Mouse smiled in her sleep. But when she woke in the morning, her living nightmare continued.
