The problem with moving to a new city was setting up a network. Jill had spent the whole month studying maps of the city. She had spent hours trying to figure out where the supernatural boundaries were, who their leaders might be, what their networks might be, what she might be dealing with. Prague was a hot bed and, unfortunately, there wasn’t much in the way of back up at the moment. She had sent out messages, called for aid, but Hunters were a transient lot. They might show for a specific job, but many wouldn’t stay.
Speaking of jobs… she was on one tonight. And it was a huge mistake.
Jill was not born into a hunter line. She wasn’t blessed with any sort of enhanced abilities… or even those of a normal human at their peak. Nope. She was a bookworm, who would really rather be coordinating were sightings and relaying the information to the real hunters. All she really could do right now was put out the fires, and that was if she got extremely lucky. It’s not like she could set up a trap in the middle of the city, as she might normally in a more rural setting.
She was just starting to feel like maybe she had the wrong night when she heard a scream followed by the snarl of some predator. Her heart started to race. She turned her car and headed in the direction, barely avoiding a woman as she ran past. As she turned, she caught a flash of fur and jerked the wheel. Jill felt the air bag deploy as she smashed into the beast—it’s yelp covered up by the squeeze of tires and the twisting of metal.
She pulled herself out of the car and shook her head to try to get everything to stop spinning. Her head snapped up as she heard a growling and the scratching of claws against the road.
"Shit..."
