Considering that he could tell with the look in her eyes that this wasn't the usual Marissa, Nanook didn't show her an ounce of mercy. It was very obvious that he had actually enjoyed exacting all that pain on her. With every shred of his claws and every last chomp of his powerful jowls, he enjoyed it. The wild animal that he had become certainly didn't let up.<br/><br/>When she was started to punch against the floor in pain, Nanook shook his head side to side angrily. It was exactly the way that a wild wolf would go in for the kill. He rocked that aforementioned head, trying to tear pieces of flesh away from the human that was beneath him, clearly falling in submission to his awesome wild power.<br/><br/>Then, however, something changed and the last few moments of her consciousness were instead given once more to the regular Mari. This changed everything and as soon as she blacked out he showed what little compassion that he could have.<br/><br/>Still having allowed the wolf portion to totally take control of his actions, he soon allowed his tongue to mercifully lick the wounds clean. He had the ability to do so much in the same way an actual wolf or dog might have.<br/><br/>Licking away the blood and ensuring that her wounds were at least treated would help to ensure her survival through the change. At this point, in her unconscious state she would have perhaps imagined that she were at a crossroads.<br/><br/>One of the two pathways would have seemed remarkably peaceful and warm, which of course was the way to the afterlife. The other didn't seem quite as warm, and indeed felt as though it were it was full of a number of strange odors. That was the way toward her new life, and she'd have to fight to get there and wake up again.<br/><br/>The smells, of course, were the result of her heretofore-untrained werewolf powers. If she could fight it though and get there, then she would very well be rid of the split mind that she had been suffering from all this time. It would be over, and she could have vanquished the other.
