(Liz and Chaze reappear on a hill over looking the city. Liz lets go of him just as a small section of the city explode and collapes as the Charlie base is distroyed. Liz pull out an IV bag and uses the fluid to clean his wounds. Taking a razor, she carefully shaves the fur off from around them and rinses them again. She takes the stiching intruments and closes them up. She rinses everything off with the IV fluid and puts things back into their orginal containers if they can be reused.
Liz moves to Chaze's head to place it in her lap. She gentle strokes his canine ears, waiting for him to wake up.)

(Wolf is standing over his mentor, Victor Creed. Both of them are bleeding heavily, but they're both laughing uncontrollably. Chaze lends a helping hand and Victor takes it without hesitation. As Chaze pulls Victor to his feet, he brushes the dirt off of Victor's shirt. Victor smiles widely at him and claps him on the shoulder.)
Victor: You're doing good Wolf. But you should always remember, humans do not trust us. They hate us and they will never accept us. We can only do our best in this life, nothing more, nothing less.
Wolf: Yes sir. I promise I'll live this life as best as I can, but can't you stay with me. Or can't I go with you?
Victor: I'm sorry Chaze, but your life only intertwines with mine for a brief moment. Just remember everything I've taught you, and you'll be fine.
(Wolf opens his eyes to see Liz. His vision is blurry, but he smiles at her blue figure nonetheless. He tries to speak, but his voice is lost due to lack of energy. Yet he does get out a little.)
Wolf: Liz, I'm so sorry. I never wanted any of this for anybody, especially not one such as yourself. I just........I couldn't stop myself and......and......

(Liz places a one of three fingers on Chaze's mouth.)
Liz: Shhhhh. Lay still. Somevone attacted you in ze base. Speaking of ze base, nozing es left of es. Smith distroyed it.
(She takes her hand away from his mouth and looks away from the city.)

(Chaze stares at the smoke pouring from the remains of Charlie Base. He remembers Radar's unwavering grasp on him, and how quickly and easily he was overpowered. The very thought of that blind a$$hole, ticks off Chaze and he snarls quietly. He goes to stand up, but Liz pushes him down firmly but gently. He looks into her eyes and smiles.)
Wolf: Wow. Maybe I shouldn't have made you a promise. If I can't even stop myself from being stabbed in the back, what chance do I have of protecting you.
(Wolf grins.)

Liz: You vere not expecting anyvone to attack you. You thought that ve could get avay vith es for a vhile. So did I. But ve vill get zrough zis. Zis just makes es harder for mein family to find me.
(She looks away from him trying to hide the fear in her still-sage eyes.)

(Wolf lifts his paw and places it against her face. He smiles up at her, despite the snout.)
Wolf: Hey, you'll get through this. You have great friends at the mansion and you seem truly gifted with the ability of resilence.
(Wolf laughs and then grimaces as pain sears through his body.)
Wolf: Well, besides Creed, this is one of the only times I've ever encountered other mutants. And if they do this much damage to me, then maybe I should go back to the Alaskan wilderness.

(Liz put her hand over Chaze's huge paw and smiles slightly.)
Liz: Ja. You are right.
(She moved her hand to softly touch the numerous gashes and scars that covered his furred body. She grimases herself as she finds the ones that her blades caused.)
Liz: I am so sorry for hurting you the amount zat I did. I am usually not zat agressive.

(Wolf smiles widely.)
Wolf: Don't worry. I deserved it. And besides, I think I've left my mark on you too.
(There's a brief moment of silence as the two of them watch the burning base.)
Wolf: Well, what's your next move. I guess I have to find a place to hang and recover, but what do you do now?

Liz: I stay vith you. I vill never leave somevone alone if zey are injured enough. Not to mention I vill not be able to travel very far. I cannot go out in public, I too am still injured inspite of everyzing I am been given, und I just did a tandem 'port with a 350 pound, 9 foot mutant verevolf.
(Liz softly blows air out her still-broken nose, remineseant of a soft laugh. She starts to look around for a place where they could recover for a while.)

Wolf: Yeah, sorry I'm so big, but I'm more comfortable in this form. I don't know. The woods don't judge you like humans do.
(Wolf slowly sits up, and uses one of his claws to brush a loose strand of hair away from Liz's face. He smiles at her.)
Wolf: Nah, you should go. Your friends are probably worried sick, and I think I've already done enough towards you. Besides, you need rest and security. Go on. I'll be fine.

(Liz looks back to Chaze as he pushes her hair back.)
Liz: I can be stubborn as vell. I am not going anywhere. Besides I found a place for us to stay. Es ist a cave about a five minutes valk from here so es vill not be hard to get to. Es ist big enough for ze both of us und es ist right near a fresh water stream.

(Wolf smiles at her again.)
Wolf: Yeah, I can tell we're going to be great friends.
(Wolf starts to laugh, but then he hears the sound of guns clicking. He snarls and gazes around.)
Wolf: Damn! Smith must've sent a cleanup squad just in case we did escape. Give us a break.
(Wolf looks into her still sage eyes and smiles brilliantly.)
Wolf: Up to the challenge? If we survive this, your cave idea sounds exceptional.

(Liz grips her swords at the sound of the guns. She winces slightly as she gets to her feet. Her energy level is minimal at the moment, but the knowlegde that this will be another fight for her life makes her very anxious to get this over with.)
Liz: You have yourself a deal Chaze.

(Wolf turns over and onto all fours. He sniffs the air and nods at Liz to follow. As the two make their way towards an opening, they spot a company of soldiers talking and keeping sentry. Wolf turns to Liz.)
Wolf: This has to end now. Otherwise, we're gonna end up being too rundown to defend ourselves. I'll be the distraction. You get in there and clean house. Or we could do it however you like.

(Liz looks around the clearing, assesing what is happening around her. The company consists of 15 men, all heavily armed with highpowered rifles and grenades. She knows that she could pull the pins on the grenades and not have to worry about any hand to hand danger, but she desides not to do that. She smirks as an idea forms.)
Liz: Ze cameos on ze soldiers vould make for very nice protection from veather. You can still be a distaction, but let me give ze somezing else to worry about before ve kill zem.
(She holds out both hands and starts to make complex motions with her arms, hands, and fingers. In about 20 seconds, she balls her hands into fists and pulls them in close to her. The field is fill with laughs and yells from the men as they are stripped down to nothing but their boxers. Back at Liz's feet lay the cameos of all 15 men. The smirk grows bigger and her eyes brighten up a little.)
Liz: Never mess vith a ticked off telekinetic.
