#RESCUE
Text
The caretaker didn’t know the whumpee, and they didn’t know the whumper would ever have someone they practically treated as a pet. It only made sense for them to rescue the whumpee, who seemed terrified of everything and everyone. The caretaker knew the whumper would be furious, but the scars on the whumpee told the caretaker all they needed to know.

There is no unseeing those eyes or unhearing those words. No going back to blissful ignorance. No just walking away.
Matteo is left with two choices.
Kill the vampire, or help him.
It would be merciful to kill him. It would be kind.
The problem is, Matteo has never killed anyone before. Not even as a wolf. He stays in distant, rural areas to avoid just that. And now he's being asked to, in his fully aware, human state, end another life.
Is a vampire really alive?
He doesn't know, and he isn't sure it matters. The creature is clearly suffering, that's alive enough.
It could be a trap. But something tells him that isn't the case.
So help it is.
"If you bite me," he warns, "I'll leave you like this."
Who is he kidding? The vampire can't even keep his head up, let alone attack. At the very suggestion of being left he lets out a rasping sob that makes Matteo's chest tighten in sympathy.
"Okay. Okay."
He takes a deep breath and approaches. Upon closer inspection it's clear that the only thing keeping the man upright is a wooden stake protruding from his chest.
Here goes nothing.
Matteo braces himself with one foot on the wall and grips the stake. It takes a several sharp tugs and all his strength but soon it pulls free. He stumbles backwards. The vampire crumples to the floor.
Without thinking, Matteo removes his tattered flannel and drapes it over the creature's bare torso before it can accumulate any more burns. Then he hurries to the window and pulls shut the thick, ornate outer curtains, blocking out the light.
His eyes adjust quickly to the dark. He lowers himself to sit beside the vampire's trembling body.
"Guess you need blood, huh?" He sighs and stretches out his arm, making one of the deeper cuts re-open. "Lucky for you, I'm already bleeding. Open up."

To be continued..........?

Rescue in the Sky
A long time ago, since the rivers were young and the lands unnamed, when the races were still few and the world untouched by evil, the race of the Lati carried song and message between the great temples of the gods and their servants. For many ages, their deeds were worthy of many tellings and songs, for their minds were sharp, and their wings were swift. In the air, no being could outpace them. And wherever they flew, they wore armour made in the forges of Heatran, and soaring over the clouds of the heavens, they shone in the light of the sun like a day star.
But like most things from the time of old, they have now mostly passed into legend. Their ruin was one of the first tragedies of the Oath Breaking, and few remain after the world was cast into ruin and remade. No longer do the Lati travel the skies and bring tidings from the far corners of the world, and only once in many years are mortals of great fate blessed with their presence, and their songs only bring grief and the sense of memories lost.
Grim seems the fate of the Lati. Yet it was said in the last revelation of the Xatu Seers, which was told before the arrival of the Exiles of Man, that the race of the sky has been healing and waiting for the turning of the world, and that a day will come when the Great Sages return and call upon them, and the holy messengers will once more decent to the Earth, and with their aid the great pillars of evil shall be broken, and the race of Man will renew their oaths, and the world will be mended.

I know the second Crowley will think Aziraphale is in trouble, he'll break into Heaven and get his husband back (and Muriel will help).

Shun the Light Ch. 4 - Mend
Slow Burn | Refuge | Decision |
Author's Notes: I decided to name this story as a whole "Shun the Light" after a line from the Hozier song Sunlight!
I would shun the light Share in evenings cool and quiet Who would trade that hum of night? For sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
Content Warnings: vampire whumpee, werewolf whumpee, severe burns, biting, drinking blood, exhaustion, painful healing, implied stabbing/impalement

Dizziness comes quickly. Matteo didn't have much strength to begin with, and blood loss takes whatever was left. He passes out beside the badly burned vampire and remains out cold until sundown.
Matteo wakes hungry, stiff, and with a piercing headache. He feels around for his backpack and pulls out a room temperature blue Gatorade. He forces himself to sit up enough to chug it down without choking.
"Fuck," he whispers into the dark room. He tosses aside the empty bottle and lies back down, groaning when his aching body finds no comfort on the wooden floor.
But when his eyes focus again on the poor creature beside him it's hard to pity himself. Even the worst post-moon hangover is better than third degree burns and a hole in the chest.
Matteo's offering of blood barely made a dent in the damage. The vampire remains weak and unable to heal, leaving him stranded in pain he can't escape.
"Stop it, stop it." Matteo curls onto his side and covers his ears to block out the miserable sounds the other makes. Desperate, he reopens another cut and presses it to the vampire's lips.
He spends the next several hours drifting in and out of consciousness. Whenever he comes to, he drinks another Gatorade, eats a protein bar, allows himself a moment to feel like absolute shit, and then resumes feeding the vampire until he passes out again.
This is the second worst day of my life.
Matteo is in no shape for this so soon after a transformation. It takes its toll. He's tense, nauseous, sore all over, and this headache will not relent. But every time he wakes, the sight of the vampire's body gradually mending encourages him to continue.
Maybe helping someone won't make him feel human again, but it's worth a shot.
The sixth time he reawakens, Matteo is surprised to see cool gray eyes peering back at him in the dark. A hoarse whisper breaks the heavy silence.
"Let me bite you."
Bone-tired and resigned, Matteo offers his arm willingly and closes his eyes as fangs pierce his wrist.
A deep, heavy numbness washes over him. Finally free of pain, this time he doesn't pass out - he falls asleep.
