If victory, for the wolves, could be tasted then stress, for the innocents, could be felt. Little had been said, if ever they came together to talk. They were all on edge, nobody sure of what to do, it just seemed who ever voted first the others followed, even more unsettling was the one sealing someone's fate.

The villagers were almost completely lethargic, having lost so much to the vile beasts, it seemed easier to just let them take over and be done. The merest spark of hope, though, remained in their hearts. It was small but could not be extinguished. So they cast their votes, the majority for Arcticstorm-preacher.

The four walked over to the little chapel where they found Arctic tidying things up. He looked up in shock, "What do you mean I'm to be executed? I'm a man of the church!"
"That doesn't mean much anymore, remember the anchoress, she turned out to be a wolf." someone responded.
"Yes, but she was an S.A.E. (self appointed expert), whereas I'm degreed." said Arctic.
"That just means you're the smart alpha wolf!" came the retort.
"No! I'm no wolf!", the preacher insisted, as he backed away from the others, "please, for all our sakes, don't do this!"

But it was too late, the tiny flame of hope and self preservation flared up in each of them. They lunged at Arctic tackling him to the floor, one on top choking him, the others getting in kicks when they could. Something flared in Arcticstorm as well, snarls and spittle issued form his elongated mouth and his ferocious wolf strength was about to throw them all off when one of the villagers plunged a knife into the side of his neck spewing arterial spray all over the holy site.
