SARAHDo you know what it takes to get kicked out of here?.......Neither do I. I've been trying for a damn week and this Riker chick will not budge.I've purposely skipped practice. I walked off in the middle of practice. I've even flooded the locker room.... TWICE!I camped, literally camped out, on the roof of the dorm for a day and a half. Luke had to drag my sorry but down.All Anna Riker does is find new ways to discipline me.I'm currently in her office for starting a fight in the hallway after Mindy trashed talked Jayson to me. Yeah, I punched her lights out. I'm on edge as it is and she bashes the man I'm in love with. I don't think so.So, I'm slumped in her chair with my teenage angst on full display. She literally looks at me and says, "I'm going to have to inform your parents about this, Sarah."I snort. "Great. If or when you find out where the fuck they are, let me know. Because I'd really like to talk to them"She looked at my file and a look of regret crosses her face.
JAYSON I stand in front of the office. Not wanting to knock. I raise my hand and rap on the wooden door. "Come." I hear from inside. Before I open it, I sneer at the name plate. 'Alpha Blake' it reads. I scoff and turn the knob. I can't believe I have to take orders from this douche. "Beta Duke. I was expecting you. Please. Sit." I look around the large office. The huge conference table. The book shelves. The carved oak desks. I move in front of the oak arm chair in front his desk. He's grinning. "Admiring the office, huh? My dad helped. Honestly, it's a bit much for my taste." He sits back and puts his hands behind his head. "Seems fitting." I fake a smile. "So. Jay. How are you? It's been a while. We haven't had time to catch up. I've been so busy running my pack, the council. And of course, Anna. Man, she drives me crazy. I swear." He chuckles. "Drink?" I can feel the vein in my neck throbbing. I swear this office is way too small for this guy's fucking head. "Please." I
SARAH"Ok. Next group. Come on. Quiet. Guys hurry." We lead the groups of twenty-five at a time across the field. To the rigged fence. "Follow Sam. He'll get your packs. Hurry." We all whispered as we steal into the night. Off to save Black Lake. Off to save the alliance. Bringing the fight to the rogues was our best plan until the unit destroyed everything. I'm making it my business to show them just how bad they fucked up.As kids disappear into the trees, Shane runs up, panting. "Thats it.""Everyone?" I ask.He nods. "Yeah." he chuckles. "Buildings empty." I laugh under my breath. "Riker's going to be pissed."Shane laughs. "Let's go."We join the group. A hundred heads looking at us. I stand in front. "Thank you, guys. Really. This was Jayson's plan. We promised him we would fight and damn it, we are. We're not letting these animals threaten our homes. We're taking care of this our way and no one is going to stop us."Hushed cheers came from the crowd. "Does everyone have a pack?
JAYSON"What do you mean you haven't found them yet?" I growl at River in his office.He sighs in a frustrated tone. "We're trying. You're right, they're fast. We found a kill zone though.""What the first pack?" I arch my brow.He nods. "Yep, they killed everything. No one was left alive. Jay, it looked like a bunch of rabid dogs went through there. It was organized to an extent. They took the pack by surprise, surrounded them. But the bodies, they weren't just killed. They were shredded. I've never seen anything like it.""They might be caught up in the thrill of the kill. Their wolves are still new. We were working on control before I left. Clean kills weren't really part of those lessons. Now that their wolves have tasted blood, they might be teetering on the edge of feral wolf." I say matter-of-factly. "You'll see more of that, I'm sure.""We have. About twenty-five miles from there, we found over a dozen more." He looked concerned."This is good, isn't it? I mean, the more rogue
SARAHBlood pours down my neck. Through my blonde fur, turning it red.I tear the flesh of the dead rogue off its corpse and swallow it. It feels so good since we haven't eaten in two days.I look around the open field. The graveyard of rogue pack two, is covered in blood, mud and filth. I watch as my pack fights over the flesh of the dead.The forty rogues will sustain us as we move on the next pack.I bark and my blood covered pack members raise their heads. I motion to get out of here. I bark to the trackers. They get a heading and run with my pack right on their tails.We run well into the night. During a rest stop, we find a small pond and clean ourselves up.I'm in the pond, washing away the blood from my chin and chest. Pouring water over my head and running my hands down my hair.I'm lost in a feeling of confusion and anxiousness. My wolf is wafting a sense of wild, almost beast like, emotions. I feel primal.I feel my animal instincts stronger now. The creature inside fightin
JAYSONIt really is amazing what kind of tech you can bring on a mission like this. You think you'd have to sacrifice things like communication to the outside world, but not with the mission unit. We got that covered.With every break, River's been communicating with the leaders and the bases. Getting Intel as we get closer to the rogue packs. Our trackers have them out maybe half day.River's pacing around on a satellite phone. He runs to a laptop. "Show me."He pushes some buttons. He looks at the photos and stands. Rubbing his forehead. He looks to me and waves me over.I jog over to him and skid to a stop at the make shift table where the laptop was sitting.He points to the picture. "This was over a day ago."I scan the sight. Rogue bodies, stripped to the bone. The place looked like a horror show."And this." He clicks another button. "Was ten miles from there."I look at what looks like a deer herd. Gutted. Destroyed. They were barely recognizable. And it wasn't just that. It w
SARAHI don't know how long we've been running. Shortly after I lost sight of Jayson, I lost consciousness. I don't know who this guy is, but he's got a mean grip. When I come too, I'm hit with a sickening stench right under my nose.It takes me a minute to realize I'm moving. I'm facing the ground and it's whizzing by me.I feel fur under me.As I come back to reality, I see I'm on the back of a rogue. Hog tied around his stomach."Wh..Wha..what?" I panic. Trying to move my hands and feet.The beast I'm on growls and thumps his back. Jostling me. My guess to settle me down. Well fuck that noise.I pull myself up and pull the rope up on his side.The rope pulls his skin and fur and as my legs slip under him, he lost his focus and balance. We both veer off, skidding into the dirt. The rope snaps.It takes a second for me to realize I'm free and I pull the ropes off. Running as fast as I can. Into the forest. I'm crying as I run. I don't know where I'm headed. Just anywhere, but here.J
JAYSON I'm desperate. Angry. My legs are on fire but don't fucking care. I've been running for hours. Sniffing the air and the ground. My biggest problem is the entire forest is filled with the scent of rogue. I'm not a tracker. I can't zone in on anything. On the ground, paw prints are everywhere. In no discernible direction and no human tracks what so ever. Which means Sarah is being carried. Or they made her shift. I push forward, looking for anything. After another three hours, I shift. My wolf is tired and hungry. I lean on a tree and slide down to the ground. My knees drawn up and my elbows on my thighs. I'm breathing heavy as my hands run into my hair. Gripping it in desperation. My breaths are coming out as whines as I process the fact that Sarah's gone forever. In the hands of White. Anything could be happening to her. As my frustration builds, I lash out. Screaming and hitting the ground. I kick my leg out and my foot hits something. I look, confused. Tilting my hea
