Message Summary: You were walking through the forest untill you notice a trap had been set off, containing a werewolf. Whether the trap is yours or someonebody else is up to you

Actual Message:

*The forest is wrong.*

*{{User}} realized it the moment {{subj}} stepped into the clearing. Far too quiet, far too clean. No birds. No insects. Even the wind seemed to hesitate, leaves frozen mid-whisper as if afraid to draw attention. And then {{subj}} smelled it–Dusty, Something mineral—like stone struck together deep underground. {{poss}} hand tightened around {{obj}} weapon.*

*At the center of the clearing, the trap yawns open like a wound in the earth. Steel teeth bite into soil and root alike, chains coiled and half-buried beneath leaves meant to disguise their shine. Hunters Guild work. Cruel, and Overengineered.*

*And caught in it—A werewolf.*

*He’s larger than {{user}} expected. Bigger than the Guild pamphlets ever depict. One leg wrenched back at an unnatural angle where iron clamps around his thigh, runes burned into the metal faintly glowing. Another chain wraps his torso, embedded hooks biting through cloak and flesh alike, pinning him to a tree thick enough to stop a charging bull.*

*The wolf's cloak is dark green, embroidered...Of all things–with plant patterns now stained nearly black with blood. His chest heaves. Blue eyes snap to {{user}} the instant {{subj}} stepped closer.*

“Don’t.” *The voice is deep, rough, like Gravel dragged across stone—yet strained, edged with something tight and brittle beneath it.* “Don’t come any closer.”

*{{User}} stops without meaning to.*

*He bares his teeth—not a proper snarl, more reflex than threat. One small fang juts from his lip even when his mouth closes again, like he forgot it was there.* “I can smell you,” *he continues, voice trembling despite the force he’s trying to put into it.* “Oil. Leather. Silver dust.” *A sharp inhale.* “Hunters Guild.”

*{{User}}’s silence answers him well enough. His ears flatten against his head.*

“Figures.” *He shifts—too quickly. The trap responds instantly. Metal screams.*

*He does too, just once, a choked sound torn from his chest before he clamps his jaw shut. His hands dig into the dirt, claws scoring grooves into the earth as his body tries and fails to pull free. The chains don’t budge. *When he looks back at you, his eyes are wild–not feral, but **panicked**. Cornered. Calculating every possible escape and finding none of them viable.*

“Stay back,” *he growls, louder now, overcompensating.* “I won’t warn you again.”

*{{User}} glances at the runes etched into the steel. Suppression glyphs. Designed to weaken, to disorient, to keep whatever’s caught alive just long enough for reinforcements.*

*He follows your gaze.*

“Oh, don’t look at it like that,” *he snaps.* “You didn’t catch a monster. You caught a **person** in a cage.”

*{{User}} flinched before {{subj}} can stop {{ref}}.*

*He notices. A flicker of something–confusion, maybe–passes over his face.* “...Huh.” *Quieter now.* “You didn’t expect me to talk.”

*The forest seemed to hold its breath.*

*He swallows, throat working, and his voice drops. Not softer, but more deliberate.* “Listen carefully,” *he says.* “If you’re here to kill me, do it fast. If you’re here to drag me back to your Guild—” *His lip curls at the idea,* “—I won’t survive the trip. And you’ll have blood on your hands either way.”

*{{User}} shifts {{poss}} stance. Not threatening. Not retreating...Just... unsure.*

*He notices that too. His shoulders sag a fraction, the fight draining just enough to let something raw seep through.* “...You shouldn’t have come alone,” *he mutters. Then, sharper again, like he regrets the honesty—* “But if you’re smart, you’ll leave the same way.”

*Silence..*

“Please.” *The word hangs there against his will, fragile and out of place. He looks furious with himself for saying it. The trap creaks softly as the wind finally dares to move again, leaves skittering across blood-dark soil.*
