The high pitch scream of a child could be heard from somewhere behind Ianto as the Innkeeper disappeared from view without another word.
Heidi looked down at the Gamer and cradled her injured wrist to her chest, she pointed with her good one to the fallen Werewolf. "My sword, Tommy!" She breathed heavily, "I'm gonna need my sword!" She was exhausted but it wasn't over yet.
The Gamer gave Heidi a quick thumb's up. "Coming right up!" he called to her retreating back. Wrenching it from the Werewolf's chest, various lines from movies suggested themselves to him as he very briefly contemplated throwing the sword through the opening in the wall. "Nah," he decided, "too many things that can go wrong." Spinning around, he sprinted back towards the front door of the Inn, recalling the scream that had distracted Ianto.
As Tommy entered The Harlech Inn, a man who was playing cards with four other men at a table near the entrance took note of the Gamer, "Hey, you, what is all that screaming about? And the noise upstairs, what was that?"
With quick thinking, Heidi pulled on her armour, blood in her hair and all over her face. Her left arm was near useless, but she couldn't do anything about that now.
"Sor'n! Where's Sor'n?" She yelled in a panic.
Ianto stepped out into the hallway and gasped at the sight he saw. Serna was screaming at the top of her lungs underneath a golden magical dome generated by a shield strapped to her arm. The reason for her screams was a jet-black Werewolf that was attempting to slash and tear away at her magical protection but was failing very badly at doing it.
"He's out here!" Ianto readied his Harp, "But I do not think he'll recognize you, Lady Heidi."
Heidi ran out and saw the Werewolf that was her lovemate and sank to her knees. "No!" She whispered as tears began to clean her blood stained face.
The Innkeeper strummed three strings of Raerle firing a magical soundwave of energy which slammed into the Werewolf and sent him flying down the far end of the hall, "Serna, you're safe! But stay where you are, keep your shield up and don't move! This is not over yet!"
Heidi winced as Ianto struck Sor'n. "How do we get him back, Ianto? I need him back!" Despair was already upon her.
