Mysterious Luna

6 - captured (2)

Chris' PoV

Now that the silver cage has been hacked and unlocked by me, the beta standing before me was shocked and frozen. As for myself, instead of waiting for him to welcome me out I just sighed and slowly exited the uncomfortable and cramped cage. Just as I stood up, I turned my gaze towards the beta wondering when he would finally come out of his daze, but I guess he may still be in shock of all the things happening. And to be honest, they may want to rethink their underground prison, I mean this may have been the easiest cage I've ever escaped from.

Now that I was finally out of that cage and knowing that the beta was still in a daze, I thought this may be a good opportunity to escape however from the battle a moment ago, I could tell if I run now, I'll be caught nearly immediately unless if I use some of my powers however if I do that, it may later backfire.

The reason for this is because within the supernatural kingdom, every single supernatural being is either born with the nature of light or darkness.

Those born within the light are known to be gifted with magic.

On the other hand, those born with the dark spirit energy have unbelievable strength, speed, and power. However, to sustain these powers, it can also come with several restraints. For example, a vampire requires consumption of blood to gain enough power, strength, and speed. Without it, they can go berserk and be killed off since their soul is now being consumed by darkness whereby, they cannot return to their original state before going berserk. Furthermore, their only weakness is a dagger through the heart which causes them to fall into slumber but not die.

And as for werewolves, we must find our fated partner (our mate) in order to regain our full strength, without them or when our mates die, the werewolf themselves would go berserk and inevitably lead to death although some werewolves can be lucky and find a second chance mate or if they have a really strong mind, they are able to hold out the pain from their mate's death or even if they were in denial, this can also stop the occurrence of going berserk. But for how long is dependent on a case-by-case scenario.

And as for those born with light spirit energy, they are loved by nature therefore they can use elemental powers which are gifted to them and can be used if they have enough magic energy within their body. If the energy is depleted, they can feel intensely fatigued but a few days of rest or consumption of potions can easily treat it.

However, there are cases of supernatural beings with mixed spirit energy such as witches and warlocks who have high intelligence and the ability to form potions and medicines providing increased physical strength, agility, speed and so on within a specific time frame. These beings are also able to use magic, however they are not gifted to them like those born with light spirit, instead they borrow it from the nature surrounding them and the type of power used can be limited depending on the supernatural compatibility to those specific elements. Furthermore, they don't have the ability like those gifted to pure born supernatural and they don't have the ability to transform or have amazing physical ability buffs like those born with dark spirits energy.

So overall, those with mixed blood can be said to not be regarded as either of the two genes. And that is the reason why witches and warlocks normally travel alone and live-in solitude because they believe they don't fit in anywhere.

And out of these three types, the mixed bloods are the rarest.

Now coming back to why I should not use my powers, well.... Out of all the three categories, I seem to be born with both dark and light spirit energy. I first thought I would be a mixed blood since I have both types however, I have the ability of the dark spirit energy whereby I can transform into a wolf which a mixed blood cannot accomplish. Furthermore, I can use magic without borrowing it from nature or spirits, I am able to use a lot of different elements, not just those gifted to me.

So overall, I do not know which category I truly belong to or maybe I belong to all. Either way, since this is so rare, if I reveal it to strangers, I may be seen as a freak or a threat that must be eliminated therefore, I shouldn't use my magic especially when I don't know who or where I truly am. Even if I used magic, I am unsure of the true escape route so I might as well pretend to abide and follow their lead before I get the right chance to make my escape.

Now, going back to the current scenario, I looked around the underground prison I was locked up in, it was basically a small room with several silver cages, many of which were filled with blood which was expected since all the rouges here went berserk so it may have taken a while to fight them and then transport them over. In some cases, by storing them within silver cages, their werewolf side would be weakened and there is a possibility of getting their human consciousness back; however, there is no guarantee that this would work on every single werewolf. However, whether they live is unknown, the only reason why some packs keep the rogues are to ask questions of why they entered their pack territory and then the alpha or the person in charge would decide whether the rogue gets to live or die. And even if the rogue was released, they won't live long if their resolve is weak.

Now, other than the silver cages, there is a table at the far end near the entrance to the underground prison containing whips, silver knives, wolfsbane and many other weapons harmful to werewolf kind alongside other things that also work on other supernatural beings as well.

And as for the room itself, well it was quite dull and dark, there were no windows or fresh air, the whole atmosphere was deadly and bloody. The air smelt of iron and agony which was not something I like.

But then again prisoners within supernatural society which are not in our pack are never treated well so I shouldn't be expecting much.

Now averting my attention from the surroundings to the beta, I still see him deep in thought and instead of waiting, I decided to wave my hand in front of his face. Despite it being disrespectful, I did try coughing, but no answer was heard from him, so this is my last resort.

And as expected, this cut him out of his deep thought process, however he must have thought I was about to attack as he grabbed onto my hand that was swinging in front of his eyes and then looked at me, "what are you doing?" he asked whilst I sighed, "Didn't you want to take me to your alpha?" I questioned whilst he nodded, "Then what are you waiting for?" I said calmly.

The beta looked at me from top to bottom maybe wondering why I wasn't scared before signalling the men outside to come in.

As the metal door opened, two men walked in, one of them handed a black piece of cloth to the beta who then approached me, "Now, listen carefully. I would blindfold you and take you towards our alpha. When you are there, you must not be disrespectful and answer the questions he poses or else you may lose your life, got it?" the beta questioned whilst I scoffed at him, "does he even know who I am?" I questioned internally knowing I am not that weak.

But from the beta's tone, I could tell this pack is no ordinary pack. And that their alpha may be someone powerful since they are blindfolding me, meaning they must want to keep this place or more specifically their alpha a secret. Or the blindfold could just be something used to hinder my sight so I don't see the layout of the place which if I later escape or something, I cannot come back and attack them if I were an enemy. But they have miscalculated again if that was their purpose since I have quite a high hearing sense and my direction isn't bad either, I could easily know their pack's internal layout without using my eyes.

Nevertheless, I just nodded in reply to the beta and allowed them to blindfold me.

And with that, we finally exited the dark and hellish smelling room as we made our way towards the so-called alpha's place.
