Death and Shadows iii
~ The allies gathered when they were the only ones left. The hill lied in rubbles, Anabella’s cleaners taking care of the bodies.
Marx had expected a more cordial meeting, but the three vampires stood some distance from him. All their gazes and loathing aimed at Ava. He was missing a big part of the story, as the three seemed to know her. Their collective hate was so strong he could almost taste it. As the werewolves took their human forms, clothes fashioned around them. Courtesy of a runic symbol that Ava had imprinted on their skin during the fight. Along with that rune was another that helped the werewolves to communicate when in their wolf form.
“What is the meaning of this?” Marx asked.
“There will be no alliance with that murderer,” Philippe pointed towards Ava.

~21 days since her disappearance~ “Shea. Shea.” The voice shifted in and out. At one point, it sounded as if it was miles away, but every time she heard it, it seemed to drift closer and closer. She wanted it to go away. “Shea? Can you hear me?” Shea raised up, roaring, pushing away the voice. The voice disappeared. She sat up to find herself in a puddle, feeling dazed. A few moments later, it registered to her it was raining. Sheets of rain drummed down on her, thunder rolling in the distance. Head back, she allowed the water to beat down on her face. “Shea?” She looked toward the voice that had called her back to the present. It was Ichiro. He got to his feet, rubbing the back of

~Shea woke from her nightmare fighting against ghosts that were not there. “Hey, hey, it’s all right.” Ichiro got up from the chair where he sat by her window. The rain outside was now a drizzle. Holding her by the wrists, he held her down as she continued to fight. Ichiro had to straddle her on the bed to keep her down. “You’re safe now.” She continued to buck and kick, trying to get free. “Shea! Stop fighting me.” A few seconds later, she settled down, her chest heaving. Ichiro kept her pinned all the same. Her thick, wild mane of hair covered her face. It was longer than it had been when last he saw her. Two months ago, he did not know this woman. He and Zigor had not been on the Mountain for two full mont

~Garrick, Helick, Ichiro, Zigor, Martha, and Nico gathered in the living room. Shea was filling them in. “So we killed him?” Garrick asked. Shea nodded. “Yup.” Helick ran a hand over his face. “And that’s how he changed.” “With the help of Ava’s stone, yes.” “Did he say where Sven’s hiding?” Zigor asked. Shea pursed her lips. “Ah crap,” Helick said. “I feel the bad news coming.” “He’s held up at a maximum-security prison.” They looked at her, confused. “A prison?” Garrick asked.

~Daniel, Helick, and Ichiro geared up for their recon mission, while Shea gave them an overview of the prison again. They all suspected it could be a trap, but Shea was confident that it was not. “And remember, the primary aim is recon,” Marx said to the three. “If you can’t get in without making a stir, don’t go in, surveil the property. We need to find out if Sven is alive and the extent of his operations in Penthart.” “What do we do if things go sideways?” Helick asked, putting on his gloves. “Make it out alive.” Helick nodded. “While you guys do that, I’ll be taking a trip back to Pentorium, speak to Vescovi and the others in person.” Marx walked off, and She

~The elevator opened and before Helick, Daniel, and Ichiro could step out, Marx and Anabella, who had been waiting for them, stepped in. The door closed again. “Welcome to Anax Corp. I trust you gentlemen had a pleasant ride here,” she said to them. “I could get used to having a chopper on hand,” Helick commented. She gave him a small smile and a nod before typing in a password with the regular elevator buttons. The elevator started moving. No one spoke on the way down. When the numbers stopped lighting up at ‘B’ for the basement level, but the elevator kept descending, no one asked questions. The elevator dinged on its stop, the panel behind them opening. “Gentlemen,” Anabella stepped out before them. They walked into the middle of an underground factory

STAGE I – GETTING THE TEAM IN PLACE Location: Penthart Supermax - Inside Cellblocks A and B Alpha Team The prison transport truck pulled up at the gate. After checking the exterior of the vehicle, along with the badges of the guards who came in the truck, the correctional officers at the outside gate radioed for the first gate to open. The transport went through, and the gate started closing behind them. The second gate did not open until the locks for the first clicked in place. The same process repeated when they came to stop at the main entrance. Bryan drove the van, with Yuri in the passenger seat, into the compound. They remained there as the correctional officers came to escort the prisoners out. All of them were vampires or werewolves. Both gr

Location: Penthart Supermax - Inside Cellblocks A Alpha Team “Target is down. I repeat target is down,” Marx heard Ichiro say through the comms. Marx stood facing one of the hybrid werewolves Sven created. Around him on the floor were bodies of other werewolves. Through the constant chatter in his ears, he knew that four of them were in Block B while the other four were roaming Block A. Ichiro and his team put down the ninth. “I have eyes on one of the hybrids in Block A. Does anyone have eyes on the others?” “We have two of them on the second floor.”

Anabella gave the order. “Release phase 2 of the gas.” “Releasing.” “The humans are coming to,” Shea said. “Hana, as we rehearsed.” The comms went dead, and Anabella waited. A few minutes later, th
