Three things were clear to Sergei when he woke up in the morning. First of all he was naked, which was usually fine as long as there was a woman next to him, which there wasn't. Second of all his bed was damp and smelt of Earth, in fact when he curled his fingers he felt thin strands of grass clump together in his hands. And third which sent a chill up his spine was that he could taste copper. Large amounts of it. Slowly he picked himself up and wiped his chin, a thick, sanguine liquid clung to his hand and he could feel it running down his neck. Blood, and his taste was enhanced enough that he could tell it wasn't his own and he didn't feel injured. He wasn't sure it was human though, time had diluted it a little. Standing and brushing down the hair on his chest which were matted together by sweat, in fact his whole body was sweaty and the grove he was in wasn't even that hot, especially if he'd been there naked since nightfall. It had happened. Alright he'd blacked out but that didn't mean he had to jump to conclusions, he could have gotten attacked and the blood was from him driving off his attackers. But then he smelled it, meat and blood, cold, dead, at least seven hours old. He followed the trail, half expecting to see a fellow student who hadn't expected a wolf of all things to come out of the forest, torn apart and strewn through the trees. What Sergei found made him sigh in relief. It was torn to pieces all the white fur, the small size, and the ears made it clear it was simply a rabbit that he'd eaten last night. "Oh thank god." He sighed and sagged against a tree. Now if only he could find his clothes before someone saw him.
