JACE POV

I woke up, the sun was shining brightly and I sat up slowly. Justin was laying on the ground with blood covering his body.

"Jace?" I heard in the distance, "Justin!"

I ran to him quickly, "Justin," I shook him, "Justin can you hear me? Fuck I'm so sorry." I grabbed his wrist and snapped it, he sat up quickly screaming, "I'm sorry! I had to trigger the healing process."

"So you broke my arm!" he snapped at me.

"Broken bones work the best," I said, "come on. You shouldn't have challenged me like that."

"Shut up," he coughed as he slowly stood up, "I almost had you."

"Whatever," I laughed, "come on. I hear them calling for us."

The two of us headed towards Jessica and Alex.

"Oh my god where have you been!" Jessica gasped as she ran towards us, "it's almost noon. What happened?"

"It's almost noon?" I asked.

"Yes!" Alex jumped in, "what was the ruckus last night? We heard what sounded like fighting for literally hours."

I looked over at Justin and he just stared at the ground.

"Nothing," I shook my head, "it's settled now. We have to find Kira. Lets go."

KIRA POV

The moon finally went down and now I was shifting back to my normal self. I looked around slowly, my hair was a mess. It covers my face. Looking around I see 5 people but no John.

"Where is he?" I asked slowly and almost inaudibly.

"What was that?" the witch walked up to me smiling, "what'd you say?"

"Where is he?" I asked again more sternly.

"He is out trying to find a helmet," she smiled, "whatever that means."

"He won't find it," I coughed, "he won't ever find it."

She squeezed her fist and I felt my throat close. I could feel my face start to turn red and she let stopped. I gasped for air and looked up at her.

"You are so lucky I can't do anything right now," I snapped, "I would-

"You would what?" she smiled as she stepped closer, "you WON'T and CAN'T do anything. So there is NOTHING that you would do."

I felt the immense burning in my body again and I screamed out in pain.

"Stop!" I screamed, "please stop!"

She stayed on it and I swear I felt my flesh melting off my body. My screams continued. When she stopped my head dropped. She started laughing, "you are weak!"

"I'm only weak because I'm restrained," I glared at her, "take me out of this and make it fair fight, we will see who loses!"

The buildings main doors opened and John walked in, "why hello there! How are you! Did you have fun?"

"Why are you doing this?" I asked him.

"Because you are what some people call very special," he walked around me, "you see, you have witch and wolf in you. It's pretty rare, we don't see it very often. So now that I have you, I get to experiment. Here," he grabbed a binder and started flipping through it, "you see all these charts? These are all things I've learned about you and what you are in just a short, I don't know, 15 hours? 20? I'm going to continue conducting my ... research," he started to smile, "and you are my test subject. Now I have a question for you."
