Dungeon Residential Camps, Somewhere, Saturday

[not_a_whiner]

And then the pathways slammed shut.

Oh, not all of them. Most of them simply rearranged themselves. But whatever had connected each camp to another had been violently stripped away. They were alone now, and they were easy prey. At least the winds had settled down...

The maze had grown more erratic, however. Instead of speeding up time for all, it was now slowing it down at random in different places. Anyone caught in a sudden bubble of it would find themselves slowing down compared to the rest of the world. Awkward.

She was going to be so sorry for asking when this was over.

"Don't let me hurt anyone. In another day or two I'm going to start getting hungry," Allie explained quietly. "I'll be able to control it for a little while, but after while instinct will take over." She couldn't help remembering Bethany and Caleb curled trustingly into her side sleeping in the barn. Leaning forward, her fangs slipping out...and only a last bit of stubbornness keeping her from biting either of the sleeping children.

"We could block you from camp and see what happens to you in the dungeon," Jack suggested. "You might even find someone you don't need to feel guilty about eating."

"That'll only work so long. And if I get hurt, I'll only get hungrier. That's not good." It was hard to put into words, that mindless hunger where all that mattered was the taste of warm blood on your tongue. "You'll have to stop me. Permanentally. Before it gets to that point.

Jack glanced over, hurt in his cold eyes. "I will," he said. "But why me?"

"Because right now, in this room, you're one of the only people I think is strong enough to do it," Allie said, regretfully. "There are two vampire slayers in the other camp. I'm sure they'd do it with a smile. But they're not here right and I don't if we'll see them again."

Jack glanced at Kaidan for a moment, but he suspected he'd make a better vampire slayer than the biotic. And while he didn't want to kill Allie, it was far better than the alternative she was sketching out.

"You have my word," he said seriously. "But I hope it doesn't come to that."

Allie didn't want to die. But if given a choice between that, or hurting people she cared about, it's wasn't that hard to decide.

"I'm hoping the same thing. But I feel better now. Thank you."
