When Chris hugged her she blushed a shade of deep red, she never wanted the hug to end but it did. And when it did she saw blood on her, she tasted it. Odd she could swear that she had tasted it before. She looked at Chris," What deer, And never do what again?" She had on a very confused look. What was he talking about?

Happy to come in, Erik took a seat next to his brother.
At first, it seemed like Katina had forgotten everything, which was relieving, but he started to worry when Chris told her everything. He watched her with a nervous look, hoping she wouldn't break down again.

"I mean don't you ever pass out like that on me again," Christopher told her, concerned. "You almost died. You stopped breathing. ...If you don't remember, we all suddenly had the urge to hunt and we decided to go after a deer. I took on pack leader and chased the deer in you and Erik's direction. You guys tackled it and took it down... and I ripped out the throat. You must have been in a complete spell of canine behavior and instincts because once it was over, you freaked out terribly."
Christopher was finally out of words and fell back into his chair, a hand serving as a visor over his eyes. This day had been too strenuous. He needed some serious R&R after the mess of today. Then he remembered. "I'll have to go back into the forest soon and collect the deer carcus. It'd be really bad of us to let it go to waste. I'll take it back to my place in a bit and cut it up."

She stood up her legs shaking a bit," Im going to go and get some air." She didn't really want to stay in here, she didn't know what to make of Chris's story. Could she really have killed a deer? What ever truly happened out there she figured that it was better forgotten anyways. She waved her hand at Chris and Erik to bid them goodbye," Well you too its been a very interesting day but I do believe I need a walk." And with that she slowly and awkwardly walked out of the infirmary.

Waiting for Katina's reaction, Erik was his claws out of nervousness, hoping she wouldn't freak out. Saying she couldn't recall what happened, he breathed a sigh of relief. As she walked out the door, he said to Chris, "Okay, first of all, I didn't throw up the deer meat because I was panicking, I did it because Katina was p****d and I didn't want her yelling at me or hitting me, because I'm not good in those situations. And secondly...you want to go get that thing before someone steals it?". His serious face turned into a playful smile.

Christopher took his hand away from his eyes and joined Erik in his trademark fang-exposing grin. This was a trait they were both starting to form and share as of late. It was a sign of the growing brotherhood between them. Raising a hand, Christopher gave his little brother a thumbs up of approval.
"You got it!" Christopher exclaimed. He was so excited that he jumped out of his chair and grabbed Erik's hand to pull him along.
Once they reached the spot again, Christopher was glad to see the deer was still there and thankfully nothing came along to take it for itself. Grabbing the front legs, Christopher motioned for Erik to take the hind ones. "Here's what we'll do. We'll take it back to my place, hang it above the tub in the bathroom, then cut it up and clean it, ok?"

Giving his older brother a thumbs-up in return, Erik was surprised when Chris grabbed his hand and started pulling him to the jungle.
Once there, he grabbed the hind legs. Hearing Chris' plan for the deer, he replied "Sounds bloody and gory...awesome!"

Once they got back to the duplex, Christopher strung the deer from the ceiling of his bathroom by the hind legs.
"Ok, hand me the knife, would you bro?" Christopher asked, his pawwed hand being held out. "You know, it's been one hell of a day. So much drama... I'm getting rather sick of it personally. So how about we make a deal? The rest of the night, let's just try to have some fun. I'll show you how to clean a deer even though this is a first for me as well, we'll cook some up and eat it... Then we can watch MST3K... The Movie. How's that sound?"

"Oh, almost forgot I had it." Pulling the hunting knife out of his pocket, he handed it to Chris.
"I know what you mean, I've had a panic three times today, that's a new record! If something else happened today, like if someone got shot, I wouldn't even care, I'm just out of worry." he said.
"Sounds great!" he replied. Humming the Mystery Science Theater theme song, Erik reflected on everything bad that happened today, from Chris having a total breakdown, to them killing a deer. It didn't really matter to him, but then again, why should he care? He was going to relax for the rest of the night, put on some comfy PJs, eat some deer, and watch one of his favorite movies with his older brother.

"Ok, back out of the way!" Christopher warned as he prepared to make the first incision into the deer carcus. "This might be a gusher if I hit a vein..."
As expected, as soon as Chris plunged the knife into the corpse of the deer, a spray of blood splashed him in the face. Chris immediately closed his mouth and held his breath while he used his shirt to dry his fur off. Realizing his clothes were only going to get in the way, Christopher stripped down to his briefs and continued to skin the deer.
Turning to Erik, Christopher asked him, "Erik... could you get me a trash bag and some pans covered in tinfoil so I can place the venison on it and throw away what we can't use?"
'Man, this is a mess!' Christopher complained on the inside. 'It'll take forever to clean this up. Hopefully Erik will lend a hand with spraying the Fantastik.'

A little deer blood splashed Erik's face as well, but he simply licked it up. "Delicious!" he said.
As Chris stripped down to his briefs in front of him, Erik couldn't help but let out a little laugh. Even if it was his older brother, it was still awkward...and kind of creepy.
Hearing his older brother's request, he went over, got the tin foil and pans, and some Fantastik as well. Wrapping the pans in foil, he placed them by the bathtub, while spreading out the garbege bag and holding it open between.

Raising an eyebrow, Chris turned around and sighed, "Am I the only one who seems to think blood tastes disgusting?"
However, his face turned into a smile and he shook his head. He soon finished skinning the deer and dropped the sheet of bloody fur into the tub. He'd rinse and wash it later. Next came the cleaning process. Christopher would be lying if he said he didn't come close to wanting to puke a couple times, particularly when it came to the bladder and bowels. Wrinkling his nose in disgust, Christopher immediately threw those into the garbage bag Erik held open.
From there on, it was smooth sailing. Christopher sliced the meat from the bones and cut it into slices. About two hours had passed by before he was done. His back was sore as hell. Chris had Erik spray down the tub with the bleach cleaner while he bagged up the meat. Chris remembered to pop some of the delicious meat into the oven though so that there was a meal for the night.
Now all he needed was a shower. Returning to the bathroom, Chris rushed Erik out for the moment. "Ok Erik. I need to get out for a moment. I have to take a shower."
Surprisingly, It only took him about 30 minutes to clean down the tub and have a shower. Getting dressed, Christopher decided to return to his company.
'I wonder what Erik's been doing this whole time...' he pondered.

Walking out of the bathroom, Erik knew Chris would be in there a while, so he decided to do a few errands.
First of all, there was there was the unwanted body parts to deal with. Going out to the garbage can outside, he threw the bag in, but not before pulling out a leg bone to chew on.
Next, there was the matter of finding comfy clothes. Running back to his duplex, he swapped his clothes for his South Park pajama pants and an All-American Rejects T-shirt.
With these chores done, he ran back to Chris' duplex. His brother still in the shower, Erik started chewing on the deer bone.

As soon as Christopher opened the door, he decided to catch Erik offguard by shouting out, "Caught ya!"
It was amusing to see his reaction, especially with the deer bone hanging out of his mouth. "I see you got yourself a chew toy there."
Chris went over to the oven and pulled the dinner from the oven. It was ready for serving. Flopping 7 strips a piece onto two plates, he handed Erik over a plate of the savory smelling meat. He then rummaged the fridge and handed his brother another Canada Dry.
"Ok, you think you need any utensils?" inquired Christopher, "Or are you just going to eat it by hand like me?"

Erik's ears shot up and he let out a surprised yelp when Chris surprised him.
Replying to Chris' chew toy comment, he said with a grin, "Yeah, I couldn't resist."
As his older brother took out the food, Erik was getting really excited, tail wagging, licking his lips, he eagerly took his plate and drink. "No thanks, I've got all the utensils I need right here." he said, meaning his claws and fangs. With that, he started digging in.
About two strips into the feast, Erik said to Chris "Hey Chris, do you ever wonder what you'll look like *swallows* when you're done changing? Because I can't wait to see what I look like."
