Skye felt a little stronger as the blood began to slow, and she opened her eyes to look at Pearl. With a soft whimper, she thanked the others for staying with her. But she was cold... so cold. She began to shiver violently.

Pearl effectively hopped over to one side of Skye and laid next to her. Using her front paws she worked off a few bits of fabric that hadn't been torn off during transforming or her fight with Fenrir. Pearl felt very tired, half the pack had gone to chase off Fenrir, so their small group was to be here in this off alley until morning.
*what about the MM? wouldn't they be alerted to this kind of attack? or should Erasamus aware of it, but do nothing?*

Skye was still shivering badly, but felt warmer knowing that her friend was so close to her. She began to slip out of consciousness again, letting out a soft whine.
(I think Erasmus would know about it, and do nothing. Technically, the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures should come and deal with this, rounding up anyone they can find, probably using tranquilizers. But since Erasmus is in charge of the Ministry, I would think he would cover it up somehow to prevent them from interfering. He doesn't actually know what happened...)

Karl was leading the group that was chasing off Greyback's pack members. They were his brothers and sisters, but they had all made their choices. They had chosen to side with Greyback in this and to try killing humans. And he had chosen to leave. They were no longer his pack. He yipped loudly at them and snapped at Angus's heels when he started to lag behind.

Pearl perked up as Skye let out a whine. she nipped at her ear to keep her from sleeping, it wouldn't be safe for her to sleep this night, she was injured far worse than anyone else...but that was to be expected, she faced off against Gordon, Pearl had seen his body, he was a brute of a wolf, strong and mean. she looked up at the sky seeing that it was still high into the night. How she wished for the sun.

Skye felt a nip on her ear and forced her eyes open. But she wanted to sleep, so badly... Her head felt heavy and her legs were stiff. It was too much trouble to move. Again she began to flutter in and out of sleep.

Pearl nipped again at her ear and yipped at her to stay awake, just until the sun rose. she let out a whine and looked toward Zander, she loved Skye, but this was the worst she had ever seen her have.

Zander had turned back when he had seen Pearl limping away. Karl, Chloe, and Dragos seemed to have the situation under control. Now he stood helplessly by Pearl, watching as she lay next to her friend. He could see that Skye was shivering, and his instincts told him she was going into shock. It was important to keep her warm, but not let her sleep. He yipped at David and Remus to huddle next to Skye to keep her warm. If only he had a blanket...

Pearl decided it was going to be the longest moon of her life, she yipped at Zander to come closer, she licked his muzzle and whined, It was a cold winter night and while they had expected losses, Pearl wasn't willing to loose Skye.

Zander cast a quick glance down the alleyway, making sure that no one was coming. He felt inclined to do guard duty, to protect his injured pack members. But right now, Pearl needed him. So he hesitantly went to lie down next to Skye and Pearl. If they all huddled close to her, maybe Skye would be warm enough.

Skye felt the others gather around her and it made her feel stronger. She opened her eyes and looked at Pearl, trying to thank her for being there for her. It was a long time until morning, and Skye knew she was going to have to stay strong....

David had already laid down beside Skye and rested his muzzle on her neck and licked her wound again. He really wished that the sun would hurry and rise. Tonight seemed like the longest night of his life.

It was a long, cold night. Zander lay next to Pearl and against Skye, helping to keep the injured girl warm through the night. He didn't sleep; he just kept watch over everything. He kept his ears perked up, listening for sounds of anyone who might be approaching, while he watched over Skye and the others. Near dawn, Karl, Chloe, and Dragos returned to the pack and lay next to them.
As the sun began to rise, Zander felt the slow change begin to take effect. His bones cracked and rearranged themselves, his hair began to retract, and soon, he was lying naked on the hard cold pavement. Quickly, he sat up and unstrapped his wand from his leg. Holding it up, he concentrated very hard on summoning everyone's clothes. "Accio clothes!" he said. Soon, the clothes flew through the air and landed in a heap beside them. He stood up and got dressed, then shook Pearl awake. "Pearl, wake up. We need to get Skye dressed and take her to get treatment. We're not far from St. Mungo's... but I think I'd rather take her to Hogwarts."

Chloe woke up slowly and noticed that she didn't have her clothes, but luckly, Zander had his back towards her and Karl was still asleep. She grabbed her dress and pulled it on over her head. "Karl," Chloe said shaking him a little. "Wake up. We've got to take Skye to Hogwarts."

Pearl Shrugged on her clothing as quickly as she could, she was grateful that the ground where they slept was at least still warm from their bodies. Her leg was sore, bruised and a bit red, she'd have to press her wound. She began to pull on what clothing she could on Skye's still form, she was fevered but shivering.

Dragos woke up to the others' voices after a long night of hardly any sleep. He pulled on some clothes and looked around, feeling very tired. It was strange to see the place they had just fought at in the morning and in broad daylight. It was such a beautiful place with all of the shops and scenery that it was hardly believable that there had been such a big fight the night before. He looked at Chloe and Karl. "I want to come with you to Hogwarts with Skye. I want to make sure she's okay and stuff, if that's alright with you two." He told his two new colleagues.

Karl casually tugged on a pair of torn pants. "Sure, we'll all go," he said gruffly. "Skye needs us all now. So how do we get there?"

"We'll have to Apparate," Zander said. "Chloe, David, since you can both Apparate, you can help me. I'll take Skye, David, you can take Pearl, and Chloe, you take Remus. Then you two can Apparate back here again and take Karl and Dragos." He bent down and scooped Skye into his arms. "I'll see you guys there," he said. With a loud POP, he disappeared.

Karl watched as Zander left with Skye. He looked around at the others and scratched the back of his head. "I hope she'll be OK," he said gruffly.

Zander Apparated back to Diagon Alley and saw that Pearl was still there waiting. "OK, look, I'm going to take Pearl now... I really think Skye needs her there as soon as possible. She... she's hurt bad." He pressed his lips together tightly. "So, Pearl, you come with me, and Chloe, David, you two can bring Karl, Dragos, and Remus, OK? I'll see you there." He grasped Pearl's hand tightly and Apparated back to the same spot on the edge of the grounds.
