Ulric could feel it, his whole body seeming to be on fire as he calmly laid on his back looking up at the sky through tree leaves. The moon would be full tonight and even though nightfall was still a half hour away, his body was already getting ready for the change.
The woods around him was awake with noise as wildlife got ready for the coming darkness. Well, it wasn't a really woods more like a little park that most big cities kept to give their residences the sense of wilderness around them. Still the small park kept the beast in him content. Lots of trees, a small pond and even a play area for kids more then enough to keep him entertained throughout the night. Maybe if he felt a little daredevilish, he could roam the streets some.
Yep, nothing could ruin this night!

Branches broke underneath Trixi's feet. She tried to step carefully, not wanting to draw attention to herself. Thankfully there weren't too many things that would get in her way. Shouldering her backpack, Trixi moved on. She was well prepared tonight, had to be. Her mission was simple, kill the werewolf. She'd heard of a pack around, but there was one lone wolf around, one she was sure was associated with the pack. It would be easier to pick him off first, use him to get to the others. Tonight was the night. The moon would be full, bright and shiny. She'd done her best to mask her scent, and only hopped she hadn't made it stronger.
Trixi laid her hand gently on her thigh, thumb brushing the gun tucked into the holster there. The silver bullets were loaded, ready. Her heart pounded fast in her chest. These hunts were the best, but they were also the most dangerous. She had no back up, and she could be dinner if she wasn't careful.
All of her clues and research so far had led Trixi to the park. She crept around the trees, trying to figure out what would be her best approach. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a man reclining. Her nerves shot up. It was Ulric. She had to get him out of here.
"Hey." She called, trying to calm her voice.

Ulric closed his eyes, having to fight the urge to start rolling in the grass. That's all he needed was to get grass stains on his cloths. Still, the urge was still there has he heard someone speak.
"Hey."
His heart jumped into his throat, making him stumble to his feet from fright. He turned, seeing Trixi was the one that startled him. A deep sigh came from him as he grabbed his heart. "Whew! You scared me." He shook his head, not believing someone had managed to walk up on him like that. Oh well, he would just have to be more careful when he changed from now on.
While he was waiting for his hear to slow back to it's normal tempo all he could think of was how to get her out of here. He could control the beast, but he did not know her well enough to see how she would take the whole 'monsters are real' bit.
"Isn't it a bit dangerous to be out here by your self?" 'No, she'll just throw that back at me . Think Ulric!'
"So, what brings you out here miss?" Giving her a smile, trying to keep his voice calm and controlled through fear was welling up inside him with each second hat passed.

"Just seemed like a good night to be out. " Trixi answered, creeping closer.Thinking fast, she muttered. " I'm also doing an odd job out here." She was careful as she stepped, tried to make sure her coat obscured the gun at her thigh. The last thing she wanted was to freak out her new friend, or get a lecture about gun control. "You?" She tried to keep the worry and attitude out of her voice. If the werewolf was here, if he came up on them, this could go south fast. Looking out for someone always made things ten times more dangerous.
She kept her ears and eyes open, but dropped down beside Ulric. If she could keep him at ease, then things wold be alright. She could come up with some bullshit story about how she was patrolling security, and how he needed to get out. She could protect him. That, above anything else was her job. Save the innocent.
"How long are you planning on hanging around?" She finally asked, real curiosity in her voice. It would still be a while before the wolf out there turned, so maybe he'd be gone before then.

He heard the mutter, but payed no mind to it. It did not matter what her job was, she did not need to be here when he changed. "It is a nice night out." He looked up the sky, smiling as it was not often he felt at ease with a pack chasing him.
Ulric took his time answering, not sure how to really. "Well..." He blushed slightly, knowing just how well people took it when he gave them this answer. "I'm out here for a Pagan ritual. I plan on staying out all night to honor the Night Mother and the Goddess of Peace. I find the two go quite well together."
He might lose her as a friend if she was the type that shunned Paganism but at least he would not have to explain why he turned into a wolf every full moon. At least his religion was a lot easier to expain then the magic that was brought onto him by birth.
"How about you?" There was still time before he changed, but it still made him nervous as she sat next to him.

"An odd job." She repeated more firmly. She sounded cross, but she hoped it didn't come across as being mad about his religion. "I'm patrolling this area for wolves and coyotes. They've had some spottings and I was asked to keep a look out." She explained finally, deciding that was a close enough answer to the truth. "I have no problem, Ulric, with your celebrations, but perhaps you might try somewhere safer?" Trixi pleaded some with him. After a moment she drew her gun.
"I was armed and given orders to kill any predatory animal I see on sight. I don't want to accidentally shoot you." Trixi murmured, letting her fondness creep into her eyes. She really didn't want him hurt. That was the truth. He seemed too kind to let something happen to him.
"why not come back tomorrow night? I'm sure it will all be fine then."

She pulled out the gun and silver caught his nose, he had to force his body from moving back. Ulric lost his hearing for a few, fear creeping up his spine as what was going on hit him.
"Yeah, I can- um - move. Don't care to get shot." He gave a small laugh. He started to walk, noticing his legs felt like lead. All he wanted to do was take off running, but he knew if he did she would give chase and even if she was a hunter, he would not fight back, well at least try not to hurt her.
Ulric prayed she would not follow him, the situation was making his skin crawl and he knew if he did not leave soon the stress of it all would cause him to change before nightfall. And if he changed before nightfall, the beast would most likely be in control due to his panic.
No. He would calmly make it to the front of the park and try is luck in the city and the local pack. She would be safe as no wolves would be in the park and he would not get shot at. As he though it, he started to feel better but deep down he knew he did not have much time to leave.
