“I saw a vision earlier today, except that it wasn’t really a vision. It felt real, it felt like I was there”, Lucius begun. “I saw you in the vision, for a very brief moment, I saw you”Rey looked at Lucius; “I had a similar experience, I was in the forest but it was on fire”Lucius’ eyes widened as she listened to Rey speak. He was unsure of what to say and after a while he spoke: “There was this creature, it had the stench of black magic all over it. It saw you and chased you”“Oh my god, I saw the exact same vision where I was being chased. Why are we having the exact same vision?”, Rey asked as she suddenly felt a sense of dread overwhelm her. She wasn’t sure of how to make sense of the what her and Lucius had just experienced.“I don’t think it was a vision Rey”, Lucius said as he raised his shirt revealing deep claw wounds. “I briefly sparred with the creature in the vision and lost but my wounds are real”Rey took a good look at the fresh wounds on Lucius’ body. They were deep
Lucius kept looking around as he examined the environment, he had never been to this part of this forest before and he felt nervous that he had no idea where he was going to.“We have been walking for quite some time Rey, what are we doing here?”, Lucius said revealing his impatience.“We are almost there”, Rey replied. “This is the best way to get her attention”“Her?, do you mean Seraphina?”, Lucius asked.“Yes, normally she would find me if I need her but I do not think we can just wait around till she decides to show up, can we?”, Rey said as she made her way intently through the forest.“Well, we can not. But we can’t be gone from the pack for too long”, Lucius replied.“They will be just fine, The pack has really capable members. My sister seems to have acclimated just fine thanks to the Pack”, Rey said.Lucius smirked revealing his pleasure from hearing Rey’s words. He always liked receiving praise and his pack and it’s members had become his pride and Joy. Rey turned and looke
Luna strolled through the training ground, she had mostly fully recovered from her injuries and was set to begin training with Asher. As she walked into the training ground the other wolves suddenly stopped and stared at her."They are all struck with how much you resemble Rey", Asher said from behind totally catching her off guard."Well, she is my sister so it only makes sense that we would look alike", Luna replied as she slowly recollected herself from the fright with a sigh."It is not just the looks, you both speak alike and have similar expressions. It is almost like you are the same person", Asher added as he tried to reiterate his point."Well, we are twins and sometimes we can sense each other and see through each other's eyes. But only when we focus our energies towards something specific or if one of us is in danger", Luna responded. "But I do not think this resemblance has anything to do with what Rey does.""Interesting, you both are full of surprises", Asher said as he
Damon looked around the dimly lit room he was in, he felt a swarm of claustrophobia fill his body and the silhouettes of other people slowly filled the room, this was the first time that a meeting of the shades had been called in nearly 70 years and Damon was nervous. Things had not gone according to plan for him and he knew that he was about to be questioned. After the introductory rites, A voice echoed through the hall as it referenced Damon."Damon!, you were supposed to keep the Dragonblood betas away from each other and yet you have failed", The voice begun. "And now both sisters are with the Crimson pack of Lucius. What do you have to say about this failure?"Damon did not like being put on the spot but he felt his pride take over and answer anyway. "They are of little consequence to our plans, so I figured that they were useless""Our plans?", the voice asked revealing scorn and displeasure with Damon's answer. "You were charged with keeping them away from each other""I did as
Asher swung open his door and looking right back at him was Luna, he slouched back as he almost burst out into laughter from his own reaction."What do you need Luna?", he asked as he stared at her."Well.... are you going to invite me in or what?", Luna replied as she raised her shoulders expressively."Come on in" Asher said with a grin; he didn't know what had gotten into the girl but he was glad to have her here.Luna walked inside and looked around curiously before she turned to Asher and smiled at him. He smiled back as he closed the door and then he walked past her and sat down."What do you need?, we just finished sparring and I need to rest", Asher said as he attempted to feign fatigue."No you do not", replied Luna. Asher could see that Luna was combative and always had something to say. She was always ready to chalenge every order and opinion she heard and she did not seem to care about the repercussions of that either. "You are tired because you are weak and lazy!""I am p
“Concerned?”, Luna replied as her eyes narrowed."Well, it's nothing", Asher quickly replied as he quickly shrugged off his worries.As the days passed, Luna and Asher's training sessions became a regular occurrence. Luna admired Asher's fierce determination and unwavering loyalty to the pack. Under his guidance, Luna began to harness her latent abilities, gradually learning to channel her emotions and tap into her strength more effectively.One afternoon, after an intense training session, Luna leaned against a tree, catching her breath. Asher stood a few feet away, his gaze fixed on her with a mixture of admiration and concern. His normally composed demeanor seemed slightly unsettled, as if he carried a weight on his shoulders.Asher took a step closer to Luna, his voice tinged with a touch of vulnerability. "Luna, I need you to understand something," he began, his tone earnest. "You are incredibly strong and resilient, but your stubbornness... it worries me."Luna raised an eyebrow
Rey and Lucius had been in the heart of the forest for 2 days but to them it only felt like a few minutes. They had no idea that their perception of time was altered.“We need to return to the pack before nightfall”, Lucius suggested.“You do not need to worry about that, young alpha”, Seraphina replied. “You have been gone for much longer than you think”“What does that mean?”, Lucius asked.“Time is much faster in this part of this forest, you have been gone for 2 days in the real world. The passage of time here is why I still look really young despite my age”, Seraphina said in a flat tone as she watched Rey and Luna shrug in disbelief, she seemed to enjoy how shocked the two were.“That explains things a little”, Rey said. “But we do still need to leave”“You may be correct but if you do you will not have the answer to the one big question you came here to ask. In fact, you have not even asked the question yet”, Seraphina said.“What is that beast?”, Lucius said as he looked at Re
Leina informed Rey that she was going into the city of Greyfall with some other wolves as emissaries and that she would return the next day and Rey decided to use her departure as an opportunity to talk to Lucius and figure out why he was acting weird. She spent the better portion of an hour looking for him and pretty soon she found him discussing his Orion and Asher. Rey approached him with purpose, demanding a private conversation. Lucius, with his silver and grey fur gleaming in the moonlight, agreed and led her to a secluded spot.Once they were alone, Rey wasted no time, her voice tinged with both frustration and confusion. "Lucius, we need to talk," she began, her eyes searching his for answers. "Something has changed between us, and I want to know why."Lucius regarded her with a calm demeanor, his piercing blue eyes studying her intently. "Rey, I assure you, nothing has changed," he replied, his voice carrying a hint of indifference. "You're imagining things."Rey's eyes narr
Lycaon, his form oozing with the shadows that surrounded him, approached Deucalion with an air of sinister satisfaction. "Deucalion, your schemes are inconsequential. I've spent eons in the dark realms, and my powers have grown beyond your feeble comprehension."Deucalion, maintaining a facade of defiance, questioned, "What dark realms have you ventured into, and what did you see in the dark realm?""This world is but only a fraction of existence. There are realms of gods, demons, beasts and all sorts of monsters that defy your imagination. I have seen the truth of it all and I know that this is all a waste of time.", Lycaon replied. "Welcome back, we have eagerly awaited you", Deucalion said.Lycaon chuckled, a sound that echoed through the chamber. "Time, Deucalion, time has been my ally. In the void between realms, I tapped into the very essence of the shadows. The power that courses through me is ancient, unfathomable, and all-encompassing."As the truth of Lycaon's ascent to dar
"You need to stop Jade. We can't keep doing this. Please", Seraphina said to Jade."Please?Isn't it a bit too late for that? This is such a wrong time for this and here you are in my way again like old times. You relish these opportunities don't you?", Jade taunted. She was was so visibly taken over by the darkness that it distorted her face."I never stood in your way", Seraphina calmly replied. "YesYou can't stand in my way. I have always been more powerful than you and you can't do anything about that. You can't stop me!!!!!I am stronger than you and I will kill you", Jade said."When did we come to this?We used to be a whole", Seraphina said as she brought out her pendant. "Deep down we never stopped being a whole"Jade looked at the Pendant and she paused, she remembered Jade, in a momentary lapse of the darkness that consumed her, looked at the pendant that Seraphina held aloft. The memories of their shared past, of a time when their father, Herod, had given them identical
Rey and Deucalion battled on and Rey struggled on but Rey found herself loosing the duel. Deucalion used his chains to keep her away and she struggled to get in."You are no challenge to me, little one", Deucalion said. "You are way in above your head and you came alone""What do you think imthe fate of a lone wolf is?That omega that moves alone, what do you think it's fate is", Deucalion asked."That would be accurate, but haven't you heard? I am no no omega. I am an Alpha and one thing about an Alpha is that he always has his pack", Rey said as Luna charged in with a deop kick on Deucalion, he staggered back as he grunted in pain as Hyperion and Seraphina rushed in too. "I am not alone", Rey said."You??An Alpha??, what sorcery is this?", Deucalion asked.Deucalion, seething with anger, turned his gaze toward Hyperion, his former ally. "Hyperion, you dare betray me? A coward's move," he sneered, chains crackling as he prepared for another assault. "Or maybe this has always been
"What do you mean by I am the leader now?", Rey asked."It is all about you, you are the key to all of this and you have become the alpha. You have become the true reason that we have a fighting chance and you have made tjing such different for us. You have been the difference between the two sides", Lucius said.Rey tried protesting further as she looked around but she saw that everyone seemed to approve. "I can't lead, I am not a leader""But you have been subconsciously doing it, you have been leading for a long time now without realising it", Seraphina said."I don't know", Rey replied."Just accept it, we don't have much time for uncertainties. I will need you to trust me", Lucius said."I trust you", Rey replied. Although she was still visibly confused and didn't quite accept."Then you shall lead us into battlefield", Seraphina said.Rey nodded and looked at the map, she decided to trust Seraphina's words. She decided to let go of everything. All her worries and all her doubts
Jade looked at the Prince who had finally woken up from his sleep."Your highness, you are awake.Just in time for the grand finale. You are gonna be part of the climax to a two thousand year old story. Isn't that fantastic?", Jade said as she laughed.The prince looked around as he tried to process where he was. His vision was still a bit blurry and his head spun like he had a hangover."Don't worry about it, you have no idea where you are because enough have never been here. As a matter of fact, you are very far from home. You are where it all ends and today shall mark the beginning of the end for the world as you know it", Jade said in a corny voice."Jade...Stop monologuing to the prince", Deucalion said. "What is the status report Argon and his forces?""They have been thoroughly defeated and Argon is dead", Jade said non challantly."What did you just say?",Hyperion said as he tried to understand what Jade was saying. "Argon was killed in battle?.That is impossible", Hyperion r
Meanwhile Rey, Seraphina and Lucius made their way through the Iron Castle as they searched for the prince but to no avail. They went through several guards and still there were no important leads."Something is wrong", Hyperion said."How?, are we missing something?", Rey asked."Most likely, the castle isnr guarded enough. Are you saying that the prince isn't here?", Seraphina asked. "I'm saying that i doubt he was ever here to begin with, they wouldn't even perform the ritual here. The ritual will be done at world's edge", Hyperion said."Are you sure about this?", Seraphina asked. "It is the only place .....World's edge also happens to be the focal point in this realm during the convergence, it is the point where the main portal will appear and based on Legend, it is the only point with enough energy to pull something Into this realm", Hyperion replied. "Where is world's edge?", Rey asked visibly confused."It is an ancient structure. It was where Elara and Lucian sacrificed
"A hunch?'", Argon said. "You making fun of me?""No I really did follow my hunch because the force that awaited my company at the black sea was too small.They also didn't put up a proper resistance and it didn't help that their leader withdrew early from the battlefield. So I figured that the most plausible reason In such a case was that this location will become ground zero for a major conflict so I decided to mount the corpses of the dead and send them after Deucalion. By now Deucalion would have figured out that he got played and he would have realised that your forces are going to be decimated.", Lucius replied. "You are indeed full of surprises, I would never have imagined such an outcome to this battle. You both are truly impressive and have my commendation. ", Argon said."Well, I'm flattered but it is futile to thank me because you are already dead", Lucius said as he drew his sword."I won't go down easily", Argon said. "You may be part Lycan but you will need more than t
"So my question to you really is what kind of man are you?", Lucius asked."Well, there is only one way to find out Lucius. When I have to lay it all down then that is when I will have an answer", Magnus laughed. As he charged towards the incoming army, Magnus couldn't help but smile as he remembered his discussion with Lucius. He had always thought that Lucius was the mad and suicidal one and he never imagined himself making such a decision but now that he was In the moment, he didn't seem to mind. He felt an unusual feeling of Satisfaction. The two armies collided and the battle was intense, but the advance of Argon's forces was greatly slowed down by the presence of all the traps and trenches that the first company had laued down. Magnus's tactics was working well but the disparity in numbers was too great. The first company had a total force of twenty thousand men while Argons army had a force of nearly a hundred thousand. Slowly but steadily Argon's forces relentlessly threw t
Magnus and his company had arrived at the kesk region, it was a relatively poor area with a massive amount of humans and low bloods."What do you think?", Genos asked Magnus."We shall stay here until further notice. Lucius and his company should have already begun engaging the enemy or they would begin anytime soon. We should be ready in case we need to be backup.", Magnus said. "But something feels off""Most of the inhabitants in these regions have fled", Genos said. "No...Something else is wrong but I can't place my hands on it. Keep the company alert.", Magnus said. Magnus patrolled the area with Genos who was confused as to why Magnus was so worked up."What exactly are you looking for?", Genos asked curiously."This place...Everything about is wrong. What is west of this place?", Magnus asked."The Sleep mountains", Genos replied as he looked at the map. "It is extremely rocky and difficult to navigate""And the East?", Magnus asked again as he listened intently. "The Cas
