Cassandra Everdeen's Story

Alexandra gaze sharpened as she smiles, slowly licking her lips as she leaned in and smelled the girl. She wanted so much to make her her pet. "Of course I won't hurt you. Instead, we can hurt other people together. We can even have delicious meals." She stood up. "When it comes to why I like you. It'd have to be because you have nice sharp claws. They look like they can make allot of people scream. Hehehe. Also, who cares about your past. This is the now. We gotta live it up. I'll take you out during the day and make you nice and pretty. At night we will go on a spree of blood and all the other wonders of life. Then I'll read you a story, a fabrication of our own pitiful reality right before you close your eyes for the night. It's going to be so awesome. Don't you think?" The girls answer is what Alexandra was waiting on. She wanted nothing more than to hear her say no or yes. Either way, she'd have her fun.

Lucas looked around, sniffing the room. "I neither see nor smell traces of your brother right now. He must be out. It's late isn't it? Well whatever. He might be at the hospital still."

The boy turned to the girl with an uncaring, somewhat displeased look when she asked him about what she was going to help him with. He sighed and walked to the kitchen, taking another orange, and then proceeding to sit on the couch. "It seems a politician has gone missing. He might die if we don't find him and I'd rather not waste time explaining to you these things. Usually I wouldn't care, but look at this." He said pulling the picture from his pocket. "You see."

On the picture, a little boy could be shown getting a piggy back ride from his beloved father. They were both smiling and looked so happy.

"That's his son. If we can't manage to get him back, then he'll be an orphan. No mom and all of his relatives live outside the city. So I'm only going to ask again once. Do you wish to stay here, or, do you want to help me?"
................................................................................................................................................

Aisla was busying herself building her own customized computer and she was listening to Mindless Self Indulgence from her Ipod when the muffled sound of the home phone rang, she slowly slipped her head set off her head, seeing as they wouldn't quit calling and slowly she sighed in annoyance, putting her tools down, unravel ling herself from wires before running down the stairs, jumpping over the last two steps and spun around smoothly as she picks up the phone, leaning against the wall. ''Hello, this is Aisla speaking.''
Thomas didn't hear word from Lucas in about an hour at this point. He scratched his chin and smoked a cigarette, unpatiently glancing at his phone. He decided give the boy a call on his house phone a call. Sitting back in his cars chair he listened as it rang.
"Hey. Lucas. Luke. Oh. This must not be him. Hahaha. Anyway. Have you seen him anywhere?" Thomas puffed out a circle of smoke.
Aisla listened to the awkward words and laughter on the other end of the phone and frowned, putting a hand to her hip. ''And who is asking? Because I for one don't recognize your voice a-and Lucas... the butt head tells me everything. I have a feeling a sharp punch to the face will be coming to him!'' She clenches her fist and her Scottish accent comes out more as she gets... louder and louder. ''I will punch him so hard I will knock teeth out!'' She smiled to herself and sighs in content. It was obvious she was full of fire. ''Then I will make him a nice hot-chocolate... Ooh sorry, who is this again?''
"What if I told you, I was his secret lover?" Thomas said, smirking to himself at the joke.
Aisla's eye brow twitched. ''Then I would say I hope you are the bitch.'' She cackled for a moment before going serious. ''Will you just tell me your name? Okay, okay, I am Aisla, his best friend and roommate. We live together. Now tell me who you are...''
"Hahaha. I see why Lucas hangs around you. I'm Thomas. Thomas Groove. I'm a city detective and Lucas is doing some work for me." The man said in his usual kind manner. He inhaled another puff of smoke and thought quickly about who he was talking too. "Hmm. He tells me you're the beta of the pack. Do you know where he is?"
Aisla listened about to make a remark on the fact that every time Lucas came home from work he smelt like smoke and she didn't like it but as Thomas spoke about her being the Beta she froze, her normal snarky and resortful nature dying down and she spoke with some reluctance as she clunged the phone tighter in nervousness. ''H-how... how do you... know that?'' She stopped talking, started to whimper, panicked breathes whisling down the phone line as she remember the night. She was not easy to scare in fact in many cases she invited death to the party but it was the fact that it was someone she cared dearly for that shook her world, reminded her that she was not completely immune to such primal fear. ''I... I need to go...'' She would be about to put the phone down..
"Wait." Thomas interupted, sitting up in his chair. "I know this because he told me. You don't have to worry. Listen, I know you care about him. Otherwise he wouldn't have bit you first, but you have to listen to me. If we don't find out his location then we can't stop him from going where I asked him to go."
Aisla stopped and kept the phone to her ear, listening intensely with a frown of concentration on her blue eyebrows, blinking once and a while she wanted to tell the man off for... knowing so much but that was no luxury she had at this moment. ''What do you mean 'stop him from going where you asked him to go'?''
"I asked Lucas to find someone for me. A congressman has gone missing and I believe that it's the cause of other wolves. You know what type I'm talking about. Anyway, there is a chance that he'd be able to save the man, but I don't believe it's a good idea anymore. A lot of dangerous ones will gather around there tonight. Believe me. I didn't know about it until I got off the phone with one of my resources. Anyway, I think we should group up and go looking for him."
Aisla was already pulling up skinny jeans, popping on socks and her decks with her leather jacket as Thomas spoke and she grabbed her backpack and slung it over her shoulder then spoke with a sharpness. ''You stupid son of a bitch. Fenrir territory? Are you insane? He maybe an Alpha... no.. that makes it more dangerous! You should of never let him go alone! When I see you I will punch you in the face. Twice. Now, what the fuck are you? I will come right now.''
Finishing his cigarette and throwing it out of his window, Thomas started his car and began driving down the road. "You know, I did drop him off at home. You must've not heard him come in because you were sleep or something. Anyway, I'm right in front of the house. I'll drive and you sniff, 'kay?"
Aisla sighed. ''Great now we have a stalker, nice..'' She then hung up the phone and exited the house, locking it. She was all chain, buckle and leather and her hair was a striking blue, even her eyelashes were blue... She was tall for her age, about 5'11 exact. Slender with natural curves and toning and she was tanned. She stormed to the car, smelling the same cigarette stench and she went to Thomas' window and did as she told him... she punched him in the face, twice... At least she kept her promises. She glared at the man as she walked to the other side and got into the car, putting her backpack on her lap and putting the seatbelt on before looking at the man up and down. ''You sir, need to dress smarter.''
Thomas both laughed and rubbed his face. "Funny. That's what my ex used to tell me." He said. "Anyway, I see why Lucas likes you. Always thought you were more of his wife from the way he talks, but I guess not. Kids are weird." Thomas rolled down the windows as he drove off. "Back in my day, we didn't live with the opposite sex if they were just friends. Hey. Are you sniffing. That's why I'm letting the heat out you know."
Aisla's eye twitched. ''Call me a kid again and I will slap you the next.'' She then looked at him more softly. ''Lucas is not just a friend. He is my childhood friend. My parents took him in when his died. Been together ever since. My mother died of cancer... not too long ago before we moved out of the house into our own flat. Lucas helped me through... an alcohol dependency... Not my proudest moment but... me and my mother were close. I chose to move out so my father didn't need to see me so... weak. And that is why I am so mad at you.'' She looked forward and sighed. ''Of course I am sniffing him out, you not only reek of cigarettes but him... So I used you are a point of interest now... keep driving this way with you and call me Aisla, not kid.''
Sighing, Thomas nodded and smiled. "Sure thing Aisla. I don't think Lucas will think too much on it, but if you kids want to be happy, or at least, if you want the two of you to be happy you should think. Not many people have someone they can rely on. I think if you don't tell him he's important to you, he might just end up leaving. Just a hunch though. You don't have to mind my words. However, as I'm sure you've noticed, he's not the same person he was before he was bitten. A lot of alphas and even some of the lesser pack members usually are." Thomas stopped the car at a red light. It seemed he was remembering something from his past at the time. His eyes seemed to blankly stare forward.
Aisla's eyes softened if not saddened. ''I know... But I know him more that you and if I coo over him he will avoid me. Like he does with everyone. It is hard for me to watch but... I know he knows I care. I wouldn't nag him, support him or even come out with you if I didn't care. He knows this. You seem to think our bond is fragile. But I can assure you it is not, if it can survive through my violence in drink and tears from both sides I can tell you this. It won't break now.'' She looked to Thomas with a determined glint in her icy blue hues. ''So you can keep your concerns.'' She then smiled with warmth. ''And pass it to someone else that needs it because me and Lucas are fine, we will always be fine.'' She then looked forwards, closing her eyes. ''Now, turn left... it gets stronger there.''
................................................................................................................................................

Kai sat in front of the door pacing back and forth. He wasn't sure how to approach his so called sister. In all honest, she frightened him. No, not because she was stronger. He had no clue of how strong she was to be honest, but her presence scared him to a point of no explanation. He walked up the stairs to the lesser bedrooms and knocked on the door next to his. "Excuse me." He said, walking inside. "Mother needs you and I to pick someone up. I'll be the only one leaving the car though. You'll be there for back up." He lowered his dominant tone. "If that's okay with you of course."

Her eyes narrowed ever so slightly when Lucas mentioned the hospital. "No thanks to you," Dyte's voice was cold as was the look she gave him. He gave her a displeased look and went back to the kitchen, coming back with an orange. "Sure why not take another without asking."

"It seems a politician has gone missing. He might die if we don't find him and I'd rather not waste time explaining to you these things. Usually I wouldn't care, but look at this." He said pulling a picture from his pocket. "You see."

Dyte looked down at the picture with a frown. Placing her chin in the palm of her hand and looked back up at Lucas. "That's his son. If we can't manage to get him back, then he'll be an orphan. No mom and all of his relatives live outside the city. So I'm only going to ask again once. Do you wish to stay here, or do you want to help me?"

She gave Lucas a dry stare, thinking on her answer. "He does look happy, wish it were that way with Nicholas and Gavin. But I'll help not because you're asking me to but because I don't want to see another sad face. I'll go get ready, Nicholas should be here soon."

Cassandra

Shifting in her bed, Cassandra rolled over to her side for a more comfort position. Sadly it was in vain as a ray of light struck her face in an otherwise dark room. Then a knock could be heard echoing throughout her apartment, then the quiet squeak of the door opening, accompanied by a voice.

"Mother needs you and I to pick someone up. I'll be the only one leaving the car though. You'll be there for back up." Red eyes snapped open, a cold look to them. They narrowed upon the ordering tone that came with the voice

"If that's okay with you of course." The cold look softened just a tad bit. Shifting around a bit more, Cassandra sat up and slide out of her bed. The first thing she did was slide her gloves onto her fingers. Soon enough a scowl flashed across her face at the sight of brown speckles of dirt on her bedside table. How she knew was simple, every single thing in her bedroom was white.

Wrapping a robe around herself, Cassandra walked to her shower. As she did Cassandra called out to Kai, "Come here Kai, and tell me a bit more of who it is we're to pick up." Cassandra stripped of her clothes and entered the shower, the sound of water could be heard from the open bathroom door, as well as some steam. Once again she called out to Kai to confirm he was there and so he could tell her about their task.

Lucas sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose. His eyes flashed a yellow gold color in aggravation. "Listen. Your brothers still in the city and we can't wait for him to get back. We'll leave when you're done getting ready. If that's not a problem." Noticing his anger rising he took a deep breath and let it out.
............................................................................................................
Alex pouted at her new pets response. She didn't like people who were too scared to hurt others. Deciding to give her the benefit of the doubt she smiled once more, gently grabbing the girls chin. "These claws mean that you have to hurt people. If you don't, they'll hurt you instead. You don't want to be hurt do you? Then come with me. We'll get all those bad guys before they get you. We'll kill them all. Hehehe."
............................................................................................................................................................
Kai turned his eyes away as his sister undressed and called him closer. He hated being treated like a kid by her. He stood on the port side of her bathroom door as she took a shower and explained to her in full detail what their mission was going to be. "About a month ago, a wolf was spotted in the suburban area of Hundlé. An area that I know for a fact that we don't venture into often. Let alone bite anyone. It seems that my contact doesn't even recognize the smell of the wolf which means he's new. Not only that, but there are more of them, meaning that their a pack. However they don't seem to be apart of an affiliation. Mother asked me to bring back the wolf who is said to be at the old abandoned hospital building tonight. So it's clear what we have to do. We have to find him and bring him to mother alive. If he is able to survive on his own this long then he must be quite strong. He may be an interesting addition to our group don't you think?"
............................................................................................................................................................
"Awe come on." Thomas raged. "Seriously. Why is there a road block in a small town like this?" He turned to the girl next to him and said, "Don't let this dust make you loose your scent. I'm going to get out and make a call real quick. You stay here and do something.... um... that you do. Just don't touch anything. This is a cop car after all."

Stepping outside the car, Thomas called the secret hunting organization and pitched a 25 Delta towards the old abandoned hospital building before hanging up and making another call. One that he made at this time every night. "Hello. Seraphine? I hope you're not busy at the moment. It seems all is going the way I want. We'll finally get to see who comes on top in our little game. Of course you know that you stand no chance against me."

Dyte

She nodded her understanding and walked over to her room. Searching within the contents of her dresser, Dyte pulled on an oversized sweater that had no sleeves that reached her thighs. Underneath she wore black form-fighting tights and shirt. Dyte took a few strands of hair and tied it horizontally from her face.

A small smile appeared on her lips. Dyte walked back over to Lucas, leaning against the side of the couch as she put on her sneakers. "So shall we get a move on?"

Cassandra

Cassandra showered quite slowly making sure to get every crook and cranny she could reach. She disliked being dirty so by the time she was done, her skin had a light red tint to it from her scrubbing. Releasing a sigh Cassandra listened to Kai and stepped out.

"Kai be a dear and give me a towel that dresser over there." She pointed to a small mahogany dresser. Once she received it she patted her body dry and wrapped the towel around herself. Leaving the privacy of her bathroom, Cassandra began to get dressed, not really caring that Kai was there.

"If there's a new pack that's formed without our consent they are to be punished. But we'll do what mother asks but don't expect me to handle such filth or interact with them. But I guess he'll make a good edition. Now lets get going I dislike wasting my time, I am a busy woman after all."

Cassandra pulled on her gloves, which were black. The funny thing about her appearance was the fact that she stuck out like a sore thumb. At least in her room that is. Which was completely white, while her clothes were completely black suit that had a light red tint to it. Passing the side of her bed, Cassandra picked up a suitcase and headed towards the door.

Alexandra frowned at the girls words. "Oh my god!!!!! Why are you so boring?" She whined while placing her foot on the woman. "If that's the way you want to be then fine. However," She grinned once more. "You will entertain me. I'm going to count to twenty. If I find you, I'm going to eat you, however, if you can escape, then you'll be free of pain and free from having to hurt people. How does that sound. I think it's fair. Ready? One-one thousand. Two- one thousand. Three one thousand." The girl counted slowly with her eyes closed and her face against the wall. He words came with an eerie sound, giggles following every number.
................................................................................................................................................

Lucas didn't really give more than a nod in reply to going. He lead the way out so that Dyte could lock up her house and got on his bike. Taking his helmet in hand, he reached out his arm to give it to her. "Here. It's for safety." He said stating the obvious and once she was on he began riding towards the city. He had to admit he liked having a motorcycle more than having a push bike. There was literally no effort needed to go fast in one, plus it got them to their destination in record time. He parked right in front of the building and ceased the engine. "Ugh." He said sniffing the air. "It smells of blood, piss, and mold in there. I'm sure this is just the place someone who would kill a politician would hang out. Even has his smell here." He looked around as he walked about the building. "Make sure you're careful okay. There is no telling what type of people kidnapped this guy. However, I'm sure they're not as strong as wolves."
................................................................................................................................................

Kai groaned silently to himself the whole ride. He really didn't like being treated like a kid and the person who he sat next to was really good for doing such things. He crossed his arms and looked out of the window. "I can't wait until I get my license. Then I don't have to wake her majesty or keep her from her important busy tasks." He grumbled.

As they approached the building he perked up. "Finally." He said. "Don't worry. This shouldn't take long."
Stepping outside, he noticed two things. One. There was a bike outside. Two. There were familiar smells of wolves in the air and unfamiliar ones. The unfamiliar ones were the kind he was after, however, the familiar ones made his back itch. He really wasn't happy about this. Not only did he have to deal with one person who treated him like a kid, but having to deal with two? This was certainty going to be an upsetting venture.

Dyte

Locking up her home, she followed after Lucas, upon reaching his bike however and his outstretched arm all Dyte could do was stare at it for a moment with a frown on her face before taking his offer and sitting behind him. Wrapping her arms around his waist she fit her feet alongside the bars that were meant for a situation such as this. Once she had settled herself down Lucas started up the motorcycle and the two were soon heading towards their destination. It didn’t even take them very long to get to their destination which turned out to be a smelly old building.

For once Dyte agreed with Lucas something she didn’t do that often. “Man had I known this place was going to stink this badly I wouldn’t have said yes.” Sniffing the air she smelled a few different scents but only a couple of them were actually fresh. "Make sure you're careful okay. There is no telling what type of people kidnapped this guy. However, I'm sure they're not as strong as wolves." Dyte rolled her eyes at the back of Luca’s head. Taking a few quick steps forwards, Dyte placed her hands behind her back and leaned forwards a bit to get a better look at his face. “Aw I’m just melting on the inside to know you care this much about my safety. Just wish you had thought of that sooner.” She smiled at him but she knew he’d guess what she meant by it.

Cassandra

Her red eyes flickered over at Kai’s reflection in the review mirror, her eyes narrowed just the slightest. “You do realize I can hear you.” Focusing her attention back at the road that stretched before her, Cassandra eventually parked the car in front of an old building. Even from inside the car she could smell the mingled scents of other wolves in the air. “Good, I dislike waiting and the faster you get this done the higher praise you’ll get from mother. Also if you do see anyone inside I’d probably be best to just kill them.”

Dyte rolled her eyes at Lucas’s attempt at being the savior and ignored his pleas for her to leave him. She then proceeded to laugh at this Alexandria’s misunderstanding, “I’d bite my tongue than say I’m dedicated, especially to someone I don’t know.” She growled at the woman before her. Dyte guessed saying such pompous words may not have been her best choice. After Alexandria talked for a bit more, Dyte changed back to her human form. She only did this because in this sort of situation she had no desire to feel like a dog since everyone else was still in their human forms.

However it seemed Lucas had a problem with sticking to that form. Her eyes ever watchful, they narrowed on a trio of men who came into the hallway. The next words that left Alexandria’s mouth caught Dyte off guard and it showed on her face. Why would she want to kill her own men? light eyes glanced over at Lucas as the other woman’s words sunk in. If what she says is true, then that would mean Lucas can do the same to me. Grinding her teeth at the thought her fists tightened and if you looked close enough you could see that she was shaking if just a little. However it wasn’t fear that made her shake but the angry thought of Lucas commanding her like a dog.

Hm. I can't do that. This girl here has to kill this man to prove herself to me. I can assume you want to right dear?" Dyte shifted on her feet as things were beginning to become uncomfortable for her. Dyte was glad she didn’t have to but she knew Lucas would kill himself for having failed at their mission. Not that she cared too much, the only reason Dyte came along was to have something to do until her brother came home. He should be getting home right about now. Dyte watched Lucas and could see the rage that was welling up inside of him. Don’t you dare Lucas, don’t you dare- dropping her head in disappointment, she watched as Lucas charged at the odd man and the two broke through the wall. Even from here Dyte heard the loud crash that meant Lucas failed in his intentions. “You damned fool” she hissed under her breathe.

Dyte knew things were only going to get worse so while the other woman had her temper tantrum, Dyte slowly backed away and in a position to run. However her attempt in adding distance between then proved to be futile as the woman was now in her Fenrir form and on her like the dog she was. “Run or fight? Your choice. My fun." Her eyes widened slightly, sweat began to develop on her brow and her body had begun to shake. Standing in the shadow of such a powerful creature, Dyte knew that her chance to escape without harm had gone. A crude smile appeared on her lips as she spoke to the creature before her “This certainly shall be a difficult situation indeed. If I run you’ll only catch me since I don’t know this place as well as you do. If I fight I have no guarantee that I’ll even make it out alive. So either way I end up getting hurt, and I’d rather come away without a scratch.

Taking steps to get closer to her, Dyte closed the little distance between them in hopes it’ll keep her from attacking her easily. As she did so hair had begun to sprout on her body and she had placed one hand on the woman’s beastly shoulder. In that moment everything seemed to slow down for the pair. Dyte used the woman’s shoulder and her own unnatural strength to push upwards, in doing so Dyte had changed her form to that of a large wolf to give her a more agility in the small hallway. As she passed the woman Dyte spoke, “I think I’ll run.” A feral grin on her lips however it soon changed to that of pain when Alexandra turned with speed far faster than Dyte’s, in her current state, and slammed Dyte’s body into the ceiling. Her breathe knocked out of her Dyte saw colors and barely managed to land on the ground without crumpling on impact. Swaggering about she shook her head quickly and twisted to the side as Alexandra’s fist came down on the ground where she was just moments ago.

Growling in pain, Dyte scrambled on her paws and sprinted right for one of the men who blocked her way. He stood before the hole in the wall and Dyte could only guess that he had underestimated her resolve. As she got close enough she lunged forwards with surprising speed, despite just having her wind knocked out of her. Sharp pale teeth dug themselves into the soft flesh at his neck and Dyte twisted in the air still holding onto the man. The two fell through and Dyte only tightened her grip on his neck even more until she could feel his body go limp. In the few seconds it took for them to reach the ground Dyte had used his body to push upwards. As she did so she had changed to her second form and landed right atop the dead man’s body. However not even her preparations could have prepared her for the actual landing. Dyte managed to bend her knees and rolled forwards however her foot landed the wrong way pain shot up her leg. In her roll she ended up on her stomach and she lay there for a few seconds before getting back up.

Just barely getting on her feet, she felt something land a bit behind her and knew it could only be Alexandra. Glancing back a look of pain on her face, Dyte scrambled forwards and changed her form to that of her first form. Although her ankle was searing with pain it subsided just enough for her to managed to make a run for it. Even if she was limping Dyte covered a good bit of distance and was no longer in the area of the old crumbly building but on one of the side streets to the main road. With each step she took pain shot up her leg but she was determined to get back home and as far away from that building as possible.



She saw Kai approach the car but she was not prepared for the limp body that he threw in the backseat before getting in himself. Rolling her eyes, Cassandra pushed the gas pedal and the car was soon speeding out into the main road. Once they got there however Cassandra had slowed down so as not to attract anyone’s attention. “So in the end you had to handle it. Why the hell did you even bring the kid with you Kai? He’ll stick up the car unless he’s a present to Mother. Should I tell Mother she should just kill that woman? I see no point in carrying around filth that never gets the job done.” she looked through the rearview mirror at Kai.

As Thomas drove down the last couple stretches of road something caught his attention, making him stop, putting on the breaks as hard as he could. He knew exactly what he saw was and looked around quickly to see if there were any other movements in place. He then put his car in launch gear and sped through the streets, crowded with the natural people of the night, almost like a mad man. Who knew what the girl in his passenger seat was thinking.
He didn't have sight of whoever it was he saw, but he knew that if he timed his driving just right he'd be able to evade him. He wheeled around the corner and then went around another, creating a zig zag motion, just to trip up his follower. From the outside view, it'd probably look like he was just a speed demon who liked driving wildly. He drove crazy enough with no intended direction long enough to show that he was just the type of guy that liked to go for long wild rides. It'd be a waste of time to chase someone like that. However, if that wasn't enough, he passed through one of the nearby tunnels and dimmed his lights. Sure it would have been dangerous if anyone had been driving on the opposite direction, but he was sure that if he could make it out of the hole he could escape whoever was chasing him. As soon as he exited the tunnel, he made a sharp turn into the wooded path and continued driving until he came to the street path on the other side. Trying to lay low, he figure that he might have wanted to switch cars, giving him the idea to go fetch his other one from the lot.

"Well, that was fun wasn't it lass?" He grinned at Aisla. Pulling into the lot he got out of the car leaving it running. "Sorry to just ditch you, but aye, you can have the car. I advise you go back home. Don't worry about Lucas. I'll make sure he's safe." Before leaving her he turned back one last time. "Now, now little lady. If you know what's good for you I really advise you go home. I hope you catch my drift when I say that it's dire you go home for the night."

After his warning he left her inside the still running car to go to his Cadillac coupe. He didn't like being followed one bit and decided to address the matter later. For now, he still had a job he needed to do. It might have actually been too late for Lucas, but he had backup plans. He always had.
.....................................................................................................................................................................................

The girl impressed her. Yes. Alexandra Yun, who if no one ever noticed, was hard to entertain without dieing first, was entertained from a living person. She wasn't even writhing in agony. No. Instead she was fighting. Fighting for her life. Oh yes. Alexandra enjoyed, even slowed down her momentum to watch the girl try to claw her way out of the dungeon she was in. That's what the abandoned hospital felt like to Alex. A dungeon. A dungeon where people and things don't usually escape from. But, this girl in front of her. She made it out. Even though it was barely. She had made it out. Alexandra jumped down after her, crashing onto the ground with a growl and bent legs. "Hehehe." She chuckled in her monstrous voice. "I feel as if you might be better off alive then dead little lady. Why don't you come out from where you're hiding."

The female Alpha couldn't tell where her little toy had gone. The smell of blood and the sounds of the outside blocked her ranged vision drastically. She looked around back and forth trying to find her, but after a long moment of silence she slowly turned back to her human form. "I'll let you go this time. However, I know your smell. I will find you, and when I do, we can play. Till then I suppose." The woman turned around and went back to her dungeon. It was getting really late into the night and she had wanted nothing more of this day. It was time for her to concede and rest.
.....................................................................................................................................................................................
Nicholas barely made it out the crazy bar with the even crazier company it kept. He had completely lost track of time before he had realized it was way past midnight. He checked his phone for the first time all night to see that he had seven missed called and even more missed messages. All from a number he didn't know.

"Alright," he said. "Let's see what was so important, stranger.

The boy checked his message box and his eyes grew wide at the contents. All of the messages read out the same thing. One single address. He kept flipping through the texts to see the last one. 'Your sister may be in trouble.'

Having his heart almost stop, he rushed down the streets, running in breakneck speed towards the place indicated on the phone.
.....................................................................................................................................................................................

"Hmph."

Kai managed to throw Lucas over his shoulder, once again with ease. "I didn't know crashing on pavement could knock a person out so long." The words were mostly to himself since he didn't think Cassandra would answer anything to his statement. He gave her a tired look. "Are you ready to go to mother? Or do you have something else better to do?" He asked her. "I hope not. This boy may be a key to something in mothers plans. You know this could be a start of a beautiful family. Hahahaha."

After joking with her, he walked up the stairs into the castle like mansion. Ignoring the greetings from the houses servants, he walked up all the way to the masters room. Knocking on the door he declared, "Mother, I have returned with the one you asked for." After which he waited for her to say that he could come in and went inside laying Lucas down softly, and kneeling in front of her. "I also had that other thing taken care of. That crazed woman didn't even kill the politician bastard. I had to do it myself. Though, as long as it was done then I suppose it was okay. Still, I don't think we should keep company with that wench."

Lucas was slowly regaining consciousness. His body was sore and his head was spinning, but as he opened his eyes, he saw unfamiliar looks to his environments. "Wh-Where am I?" He moaned looking around. He tried to sit himself up, barly making it to a sit up position. "What? What happened."

It wasn't long before he noticed Kai's face and everything came back to him. "You!!!" He growled before lunging in Kai's direction.

Kai just stood and smiled as he came closer and closer, knowing what would have happened if the boy got to close. It wasn't long until Lucas experienced it. The aura of a true Alpha. Almost instantly he was thrown off his feet and tripped on his face. He couldn't move anymore. The gravity around him felt so unbearably strong.

"What's happening?" He asked still trying to fight it.

"Oh didn't you know? You can't step to the queen of wolves if you're not worthy. I'm sorry to tell you kid, but since you haven't became a true alpha, you're not anywhere close to being worthy," Kai teased. "Mother," he turned to Seraphine. "The floor is all yours."

Thomas drove back to defense headquarters and borrowed one of the phones lying around in the buildings office. "All officials of the Divine program. This is your manager, Thomas Groove. Come back to HQ for briefing on your next assignments.

It didn't take long for someone to come through. He of course was the one of the only three not out on missions and also the only one who lived in HQ.
Thomas smiled at him. "Hey White, how are you doing kid?"
White May, who had just woke up, gave a tiresome nod to the man.
"Well that's okay kid. You can nap until the other two get here."
White through another nod then found a good wall to lean against.

Nick arrived at the abandoned hospital checking his phone to make sure the address was correct. All he could smell was blood, but a scent that had hit his nose so many times already was barely in the air. He walked quietly around the other side of the hospital hoping over wall. He stayed in the shadows, long enough for two men to pass by, yawning and complaining about how shitty the day was. He sniffed all the way to another entrance on the east side of the building. The smell suddenly became stronger and he crept to the streets still sniffing the air. He cursed at himself for not thinking to just keep on walking in the direction past the building. He began running again down the road. With each step he took, the smell became stronger. He soon saw a limping figure in front of him and reached out for it as soon as he was in arms reached. Pulling the shoulder of the person he grabbed her in a hug. "Dyte. It's me, Nick. Don't worry okay? It's gonna be okay. We're going home. Don't worry. It's gonna be okay." He hugged her for a while, relieved that she was still in one piece. "Once we get home, you have to fill me in to the details of why you were out here."

Another softly executed sigh was given life, expanding within the inky shroud of the office, before fading away into that same darkness. Seraphine, the royal within the werewolf society, was currently sprawled on the leather-encased chaise lounge, one arm lazy strewn over her eyes where it's suit resting on the small of her stomach. "I wonder.. if my children will return soon..? It's gotten quite…boring." was the hushed murmur, her boredom evident. Giving another sharp sigh of agitation, the woman propelled herself off her the backing of the resting place with deliberate slowness, those crimson orbs, for the briefest of seconds, flickering over to the mound of documents. Hm… should I do work..? But.. trailed off her inner assessment, swiftly tearing her focus from the starkly compressed papers.

Breaking through her inner struggle was a timid knock on the oak, Seraphine not even having to turn to already know who it was. One of my maids…Hmm.. "Enter." rang out the command, her tone holding authority even in that single word. The lesser shuffled through the door's threshold, head bowed, before venturing out to tell her Master the news. "Lady Seraphine, that man called again. I believe that he's trying to interfere once again with our plans. He called confirming it actually." Quirking an eyebrow in surprise, a small smirk danced across her features. Removing herself fully from the lounge, Seraphine leisurely padded over to the window once more, her smirk only growing. "That fool… So it's begun?" floated out her whisper, that tone suddenly spiking in volume, "Leave." In obedience, the servant made a swift retreat, leaving her master alone once more.

No sooner had the maid left before there was another knock, one of far braver nature. Allowing her gaze to roam to the door, those scarlet hues immediately lit up in excitement. Could it be..? "Mother, I have returned with the one you asked for." A sense of giddiness rushed through her stature hearing her son's familiar tone, his words only adding her to excitement. [color=]"Come in."[/color] was the restrained command, an obvious attempt to suppress her anticipation. In a fluid movement, Kai bent a knee before spewing out a detail report of what happened. "I also had that other thing taken care of. That crazed woman didn't even kill the politician bastard. I had to do it myself. Though, as long as it was done then I suppose it was okay. Still, I don't think we should keep company with that wench." Allowing a sharp tsk, discontentment flooded her gaze before radiating off in the air, the emotion almost palpable. "Honestly. I give her one simple task and she can't even do that.. Hmph. Perhaps you are right,Kai.. Maybe it is time to break off my connection." An underlying meaning was present within the phrase "break off", anyone close to Seraphine having an idea of it's secret. One did not simply 'break things off' with a royal without paying with their lives.. and she was notorious for taking such from disloyal followers.

However, that train of thought evaporated as the newcomer's conscious was being gained. Watching with amusement, a small chuckle passed through the woman's lips as he lunged towards Kai with anger… a bad move on his part. Coming too close to Seraphine without her permission, Lucas was repelled, an invisible force crushing his downed body into the carpet. Waltzing over to the boy, the royal paused in front of his head, eyes taking on a mischievous glint. Using her powers to relinquish the oppressing force, she uttered out a single word before continuing on. "Rise. So.. you are the pup that's been causing me all the trouble…? Hm.. So, tell me boy, who turned you?"

She threw him a look of distaste at the back of his head. "Are you ready to go to mother? Or do you have something else better to do?" Maroon eye’s narrowing at her brother’s tone, she didn’t respond. "I hope not. This boy may be a key to something in mother’s plans. You know this could be a start of a beautiful family. Hahahaha." Roling her eyes Cassandra disliked the idea, “What to add more filth to mother’s beauty?” A frown on her lips. Going up the stairs the woman did her best to keep distance between her and the boy.

As with Kai, Cassandra ignored the greetings of the staff a cold aura about her kept them from asking her anything. The moment they entered Mother’s room, Cassandra threw a scowl at Kai for having laid the boy on Mother’s bed. Brushing off any dirt on her suit, Cassandra bowed her respects to Mother, not wanting to dirty or crease her clothes. Straightening Cassandra settled down on one of the chairs after making sure it wasn’t dirty. Sliding one knee over the other she folded her hands in her lap and wondered how long it would take for Kai to realize the boy was waking up.


With cold eyes she watched the boy struggle to come to terms with the overwhelming force radiating from Mother. "Oh didn't you know? You can't step to the queen of wolves if you're not worthy. I'm sorry to tell you kid, but since you haven't became a true alpha, you're not anywhere close to being worthy," She rolled her eyes at his behaviour, if it were here she’d have punished the boy for not knowing his place. "Mother, the floor is all yours." Shifting her eyes to look at Mother a slight smile curled her lips. However it turned to a frown of caution at seeing Mother stand so close to the dirty thing.

“Rise. So. . you are the pup that's been causing me all the trouble…? Hm.. So, tell me boy, who turned you?" It seemed Cassandra was going to be a show full of expressions as her eyes widened slightly at the fact that Mother let the boy stand on her level. Wanting to say something, Cassandra held her tongue for she knew better than to interrupt Mother when she was asking the questions.
