Raine sighed softly as her father maintained the contact, soon falling into a peaceful sleep as the old Hornet tucked her in...

"I - I'm OK." Peggy answered through her tears as Delfina looked her over. "I want to go to Mommy."
Twenty feet away, another wolf growled...
Strip went with Lightning and Ebony in the direction that she'd indicated.
"Watch out, I still smell them and hear them!" Kathleen called out. "They didn't all run away."
On the other side of the camp, CPT Scanlan lunged and snapped at another wolf that had come too close. His jaws crushed its body like an eggshell, and he flung it away with disgust.
"I'd be keen t'know what they're out here for." Misty dared a look around the corner.
Doc settled as he saw Raine drift off...

Ricardo pulled back and shone his lights on where Phoenix had jammed her antenna, noticing something peculiar sticking out, and pulled back a little to see more of it.
"Whoa..." he breathed, "What is that...?"
~~~~~
Jade also peeked around the corner to see Ricardo shining his lights on something stuck in the wall.
"Wow... I can't believe what I'm seeing..." she said in a whisper.
~~~~~
"We'll take you back to your Mommy, Peggy," Delfina assured her, "Don't worry."
But, then alerted that there were still more wolves around, Delfina became alert again and she stood up, standing in front of Peggy to shield her.
Ebony also became alert, sensing danger in the bushes.

"What?" Phoenix asked turning around to see what the Stealth was looking at. "I..." her jaw slowly dropped with awe.

<<< I'm starting to droop... >>>
Mia came back in to check on Raine and Doc. "How is she?"
Doc lifted his eyes to regard the nurse. "She's asleep. Hopefully she's a little more comfortable now."
Two wolves came within striking distance of Delfina and Peggy, snarling. The little girl shrieked and turned her face away.
Strip rose on his shocks as he heard the scream. "Oh, scrap!"
"Wow.." Dawn whispered as she viewed the scene.

(((((OOC: As am I... I'm getting really tired now...))))) Delfina took a defensive stance, facing the two wolves. It was then that she unknowingly reached full power and began to transform, her body shaking and writhing. She was becoming more animallike. The transformation done, what was in Delfina's place was a white tiger/wolf beast ready to take the two dire wolves on. (((((OOC: Just like how Aisha transforms, like this, at the beginning of this Outlaw Star music video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDFicYXeb0k ))))) ~~~~~ Ebony charged toward the where she heard the scream, hoping to get there in time. ~~~~~ For a few minutes, Ricardo just stared at what lay before him. Some kind of animal's skeleton, which looked like it should belong to a prehistoric dinosaur, was fused into the wall. The Stealth finally found his voice, "What... is it...?" ~~~~~ Jade just looked, her mouth hanging open at what she was seeing.

"I... I think its one of those dinosaurs..." Phoenix said slowl approaching the wall with awe.

"What kinda monster's that?" Misty asked the two girls.
"Looks like dino bones." Dawn answered.
The wolves leaped just as Delfina completed her transformation. Peggy huddled on the ground, still shrieking.
Kathleen signalled the searching cars as Scanlan llluminated the scene with a searchlight. Liska and several MP's entered the tall grass with pistols drawn.

(((((OOC: I think I'm ready to go to sleep...)))))
"Yeah, it might be..." Ricardo said with equal awe.
~~~~~
Delfina crouched low and then leapt at the wolves, snarling savagely. She slammed into one, knocking it down into the grass, kicked it, then went after the other one, slamming into it as well, hurling it into the grass with its companion.
She stood defensively in front of Peggy, snarling and daring the two wolves to come at her again.
~~~~~
Jade nodded, "I think they are. Don't know what kind of dino, but maybe some of the books from the library would have pictures."

The wolves yelped with the impact of Delfina's onslaught, and after a few beats they beat a rapid retreat, one of them limping. They ran right through the small group of cars that was following up, and the one that was still sound leaped onto Ebony's hood and roof and kept going, ki-yi-ing all the way. This beast wasn't like anything they'd encountered before and they didn't feel like coming back for more, no matter how hungry they were.
Peggy was still curled in a fetal position on the ground, shrieking and crying as Liska and the other humans approached and stared in astonishment.
"Don't shoot, that's Delfina!" Kathleen called out.
"I wonder if anyone had any idea there were dino bones down here?" Dawn asked.
<<< I'm ready too >>>

"Extordanary..." Phoenix said. "We got to tell the others."

Delfina took a step forward, then suddenly collapsed on the ground, totally wiped out. She shifted back to her mostly humanoid cat form, trying to catch her breath and slow her heartbeat down.
When the wolf jumped up on her hood and roof, Ebony gave a yelp of surprise, but let the animal go once she saw Delfina's beast form before the shift back to catgirl.
"What in the world happened?" asked the Viper.
~~~~~
"I have no idea," shrugged Jade.
~~~~~
Ricardo agreed, "Yeah, this would be an amazing discovery to them."
(((((OOC: I can't stay awake any longer... Delfina needs to sleep the rest of the way back... I have to go to sleep now... Goodnight...)))))

"Tess will know what to do," Phoenix suggested.
(((And I gotta be to bed now. I'll be gone most of the weekend so I'm going to need puppeting please. LAters.)))
