“Wait!” Godric called after the man, though he was sure why.

He was still enraptured by the fleeing man’s image, as he removed layers of clothes and heading back through the hole in the wall. The sound was returning to his ears, and he could feel hands on him. Holly Blue was shaking him and pulling at his arm.

“Let’s go!” She shouted, the petite pink satyr continued to yank him towards the front door.

Godric stole one final fleeting glance before obliging, and exiting the shop with Holly Blue.

As the minotaur began climbing through the hole, it shook it's ugly head and briefly shied away from the brightness of dying daylight shining through the shop front. After a moment, it looked up and let out what could only be explained as an excited huff. Perhaps the maze was not only trapping those who entered the building, but keeping the minotaur inside.

"That's not good." Raum said in a quiet exhale before he climbed down onto all fours and began his shift.

Back when his wolf first presented itself, the pain that came with the shift was unbearable, now, after many years of practice, he hardly batted an eye. Sometimes there was residual ache, but he almost wasn't sure if it was because of his change from man to wolf to man again, or if it was because he mostly used his wolf in scrapes like this. So, needless to say, in this exact moment, his shift into a sleek brown wolf was seamless.

He snapped his teeth at the minotaur before charging. He leapt into the air with his mouth wide open for a bite, but with a speed he almost couldn't believe the minotaur could possess, he was struck with a meaty fist and was sent flying towards the front windows that shattered upon impact.

Holly Blue shrieked as a wolf shattered through the window, of course blending with any other onlookers outcries. Godric couldn’t really catch up to what was happening. He was a laid back person but nature, relaxed and stubborn; hard to move and slow to react. Holly Blue grabbed Godrics arm, shaking him a little and sputtering something about the shop, that they need to call Mihai. Police and Society members were sure to begin arriving, or Godric assumed. Was it like this in the city? Godric was sure that his family were the only werewolves in Aurora, and here they get thrown through windows by minotaur. Should he help? Is that allowed?

He sort of pushed Holly away, hesitantly he took a couple steps forward toward the brown wolf. Reaching out again, even more hesitantly.

“Come on, get up. Go get him.” He sort of encouraged under his breath, unsure of what was taking place, but he wanted the beautiful brown wolf to win.

Raum bounced off the pavement a few times, skidding to a hard stop several yards away from the shattered remains of the tattoo shop window. He was disoriented, as one tended to be after being tossed through the air and through two walls now, but he came to at the sound of someone's voice gently urging him on. With the shake of his head, fur flinging tiny glass crystals away from him, he leapt to his feet. He looked over at the man who was presumably the one who spoke to him and in an inhuman, guttural voice of his own, he said, "Step back."

Godric did as he was told, though he only took about a half a step back in actuality. He didn’t look away, impressed and enamored by the tenacity of the wolf. Beyond a family run, Godric rarely shifted. But he nearly felt inspired to roll onto all fours and aid in the conflict with the Minotaur. There were encroaching sirens closing in on the block, though Godric wouldn’t know if those sirens belonged to the NYPD or The Society.

Raum rushed forward once again, this time foregoing the minotaur and leapt through the smashed window back towards he left his clothes and his sword. He snatched the weapon up between his teeth and rushed around behind the minotaur. Before it had the chance to turn and face him, he tucked and rolled, turning into his human form with a sword in hand in the middle of the roll. Without skipping a beat, he unsheathed his sword and, rather impractically, threw it like a spear towards the minotaur, striking it in it's shoulder as it finally turned to face him.

It let out a terrible screech, clutching at it's wound before going to charge at Raum once again, weapon impaled on it and all.

The back and forth between the man and the Minotaur continued with no immediate sign of letting up. Both The Society and NYPD arrived at the scene but there was some sort of exchange on the situation at hand. It was confirmed that the man on sight in the altercation with the Minotaur was a contracted hunter for the society. Both forces made an effort to then set up barricades on the streets, and redirecting traffic.

Godric still could not pull his eyes away from the holding, even as an officer was physically herding him from his place on the pavement. Godric and Holly Blue we’re both escorted away from the scene among other civilians directly effected by the conflict. Something about relief or financial aid for whatever insurance wouldn’t cover on the building. Hopefully Holly Blue was listening, Godric kept whipping his head around and craning his neck to see if there was any view of the hunter.

The minotaur charged at Raum and he immediately began scrambling backwards, fumbling over himself and unable to get up before the beast descended on him. He let out a frustrated curse when he realized there was no getting away and instead braced himself, reaching up to grab the handle of the sword as the minotaur came close. He let out a battle cry as he thrust the blade deeper into the minotaur's shoulder and jerked it in a rough jagged motion, cutting harshly through tissue and bone and apparently striking every critical organ if the monster's horrid cries and sudden stumbling was any indication. Raum didn't let up until he sliced nearly clean through the monster and became saturated in it's blood.

The minotaur swayed on it's feet for a few moments after Raum pulled his blade free before collapsing straight onto the hunter.

"Shit!" Raum grunted as he tried to wiggle himself free.

Godric had returned to his post outside his building. The street was still barricaded off and some officers still lingered, but some of the excitement had wavered. It is in a New Yorkers nature to move forward, bored or no longer impressed: Godric couldn’t say the same for himself. He was more or less, bewitched by the werewolf. He’d never seen a fight like that one, the man was amazing! Godric couldn’t let go of the dark haired stranger who kept getting up, his force and power unrelenting. Godric was certain, this must’ve been what Dalí felt when he first saw Gala.

He had posted himself up across from the building that neighbored his shop. Sitting on the curb and nursing a cigarette while he waited for the main to emerge.

It took several Society officers to help heft the minotaur's corpse off of Raum and it took them far too long still if his numbing toes were any indication. Raum wrenched his sword from the beast's chest and proceeded to bob around the site completely in the buff as if it were nothing. He climbed back through the shop's shattered glass storefront and found his clothes still in a pile amongst all the rubble. He squatted down and collected his shirt first, using it to wipe off the blood from his face and shoulders before setting it down with his sword and standing up to slip his long legs into his jeans and tucking his feet back into his boots. He grabbed up his weapon and shirt and headed for the shattered window again, using the bloody shirt to wipe at his blade to prevent rust (or truly, the bigger threat, his mother yelling at him for it smudging the entryway walls again).

"Just a quick job, they said. Had me fighting for my life." Raum complained to himself in annoyance before raising his head and pointing at the nearest Society officer. "I better be getting my pay adjusted for all the work I did."

The girl blinked in surprise and gave a flustered nod before trotting off.

Godric had nodded off while waiting for the hunter to emerge. He awoke to the sound of familiar yelling, causing him to jerk awake. It was the man of the hour; Godric leapt up to his feet quickly, stammering after the man clumsily.

“Hey!” He called after him, he was still groggy having just woke up after dozing off on the curb, but he wasn’t going to miss another chance to talk to the stranger. He was covered in blood though some of it appeared haphazardly wiped away from his face; this did not alarm or deter Godric in the slightest. It merely added to the mystery and intrigue Godric felt, that surrounded the man.

Catching up to the man, it then caught up to Godric; he had no idea what he wanted to even say. The way you murder is bewitching? Godric flushed at the thought, how embarrassing.

Raum was about to holler that he wanted his fee in fact doubled when he heard someone called out to presumably him. He turned to see a man, perhaps around his age. It took a moment, but he recalled seeing him when he'd been thrown through the wall.

"Hey, can I help you?" He asked. "If you need more info on insurance, you should talk to a Society officer. I don't really deal with that stuff."

“Oh no no, I already talked to someone-“ Godric waved off quickly, still feeling flustered and without his bearings. He ran his hand through his hair, fluffing out his curls; trying to focus up long enough to talk to the person he sat outside all evening waiting for.

“Sorry, I’m Godric.” He said then, extending his hand out. “I just had to tell you, that was the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen.” He added.

Raum looked down at Godric's hand before looking back up to his face. He blinked, surprised. It wasn't every day he got a compliment or even an acknowledgement really about his work. He gave a crooked little smile and reached out for Godric's hand.

"Thanks, it's nothing really." He said, despite his previously whispered gripes. "I'm Raum."

Godrics eyes were practically stars, gleaming as he grinned into the handshake. It had been fully worth the wait even if it was only an introduction.

“No it was really amazing!” Godric assured, taking his hand only to emphasize as he spoke. “When you crashed through the front window, I didn’t know if you were going to get up! But there’s hardly a scratch on you? I’ve never seen anyone do what you did.” Godric boasted.
