Traveling all the way to Seattle hadn't been Kenneth's idea of a good time, but he was certainly looking forward to having a good old fashioned run-in with Garrett and that stupid little human he insisted on shaking up with. Maybe Varick would even be there, if the man hadn't just offed himself. Losing a mate was so hard and boo hoo hoo, the man had probably just given up. Kenneth rolled his eyes in disgust at that thought. No way he would ever have a mate. No way he would ever give himself to someone so completely.

He'd been stalking the territory for most of that afternoon, staying downwind and trying to avoid any surprise encounters. He'd expected for Garrett to know the moment he stepped foot onto his land, but the longer he was there, the more Kenneth realized that Garrett wasn't around. But he could sense Varick and the leftover fox. How interesting and fortunate that he could finish what he'd started back when Joseph had taken over the pack.

Waiting until Varick was upstairs on what he could only assume was an important business call, Kenneth snuck into the house and into the kitchen where Shannon was. Slipping up behind him, he wrapped his hand around his mouth and whispered into his ear. "Guess who," he said with wicked satisfaction.

Kingston frowned, upset that he hadn't been there, but thankful that Varick and Shannon had managed to defend one another. He smoothed a hand gently over Varick's hair before he reached over to do the same to Shannon. The fox seemed a little out of it, but he nodded his head a little bit at Pirate's words.

"I'll go get some clean towels," Kingston said before he got up to go upstairs. He paused at Kenneth's body for a moment and nudged it with his foot, and when he seemed satisfied he went upstairs. Vance was sort of staring at Kenneth's body, and while it was a little uncomfortable yet satisfying, it was sad, too.

"Can I do anything?" he asked Pirate after a moment.

Pirate was busy making sure that the wound was clean before he wrapped it up quickly. There would be no need for stitches and with wolves they frequently just got in the way. When he was done with that, he moved on to Shannon. The pain was probably doing a number on his brain, and Pirate worked quickly to tug the arm so that the bones were straight. He didn't bother warning the poor thing because he knew it would be excruciating and the quicker they got it over with the better. Pirate was strong and he held the arm in place, even if Shannon struggled.

He looked over at Vance, watching him with Kenneth. He wished the man had been killed in human form so he knew what he'd looked like. The scent of him was angering, as if Pirate's inner instincts told him that this had been a bad creature that fed off of pain and misery. "You can help this one off the floor and to one of the couches in the living room. He should sit up for awhile." He was talking about Varick.

When Pirate tugged his arm to straighten it out, Shannon let out a loud cry of pain. He hadn't at all been prepared for it, but that was probably for the best. He closed his eyes and drew in a few deep breaths as the pain started to subside to a throb.

Vance tore his gaze away from Kenneth and he nodded his head before he went over to Varick. He knelt down beside the other wolf and slipped an am around him so that he could help him up, and he helped him over to the couch.

"If you need to stop for a minute just let me know," he said softly as he guided Varick.

Kingston came back down and disappeared into the kitchen before he came out with a large both of warm water so that he could help clean the blood off of Shannon. Varick would need some cleaning up, too.

Pirate was never terribly comforting, but he was efficient in his work. He made a makeshift brace for Shannon's arm and then got him gingerly to his feet. "It seems like you might have a bit of a bump on your head as well. Did you all fall down the stairs? I know you probably want to sleep, but you're both going to need to stay awake for an hour or two just to be sure."

Varick frowned, almost resisting the help until he realized that he couldn't do it on his own. He was having a hard time trusting other wolves, especially since his most of his pack had betrayed him so profoundly. And he didn't know that this boy was one of those who'd been kidnapped. When he finally made it to the couch, he looked at Vance. "Who are you?"

Kingston had brought down a pair of pajama pants for both Shannon and Varick. Once Pirate had the fox on his feet, he helped him into the pants, and then led him over towards the couch so that he could sit with Varick.

"Thank you," Shannon managed to mumble to Pirate.

Vance helped Varick settle down onto the couch, and then he straightened back up to look down at the older wolf.

"My name's Vance," he answered softly.

"He's one of the wolves that Joseph took from the Cold Water pack," Kingston added quietly as he moved to help Shannon sit, and then he started ot help Varick into his pajama pants.

Varick insisted on at least getting his pajama pants on by himself. His focus was mostly on Shannon, eyes flicking over in his direction as everything went on around him. But the notion that Vance had been one of the taken caught his attention. "I'm sorry that you were drug into this." But he was thankful that Hunter had killed Joseph because none of them had had the ability to do so just yet. In a few years, Kingston would have grown into it, but not as immediate as the need was.

Pirate was busy putting his things away. Bandaging up werewolves was always easier than humans. His job as an EMT had taught him just how fragile they were by comparison. Finally, he went to examine Kenneth's body, cleaning up some of the blood. "What are we going to do with him?" He asked from the foyer where the body lay.

"Don't be, it wasn't your fault," Vance said simply before he turned his attenion over to Pirate. He watched the other wolf carefully as he knelt beside Kenneth's body, and he was quiet.

"I'll probably bury him in the woods out back," Kingston answered as he straightened up.

Shannon desperately wanted to go to sleep, and he closed his eyes as he cradled his injured arm to his chest. It throbbed something awful, and he was just waiting for the aching to subside.
