My smart luna

Chapter-17

Naina's POV:

I can understand why Xandy and the others are so worried about the whole kidnapping thing. Even I am a bit anxious. The recent incident took place in the neighbouring pack, too close for my liking. So I took the files of the reports and started skimming through them while the others were doing some boring paper work. At first, they did not make any sense and were nerve wracking. But after sometime, I started to see a pattern. A very similar pattern if I may say so. After setting the files in the order of my thoughts, it became obvious that I was right about my assumptions. I was happy and started jumping around. Xandy was looking at me amused while the other two were looking as if I am crazy. I mean they are not wrong. I am bit crazy, I was since my childhood. Oh we are going off the track. Coming to the present, "is everything ok with you luna?" asked Andrew with concern. "Oh hell yeah, everything is fine, better actually. And please call me Naina. No need to be so formal" I tell him. He just nods his head. "So, I assume you found something?" asks John with a bit of hope in his eyes. 

"Oh yes actually, but you have to sit down for this, it's gonna take sometime" I say. They take their seats hurriedly and I go and sit on Xandy's lap making myself comfortable. I clear my throat and start. "As you know, for any new medicine or drug to come into the market, they must be tested first. So first, there is preclinical i.e., testing on laboratory animals. Next are the clinical phases in which the experiments are done on human beings. They consists of three stages before the drug is approved and released into the market. The human subjects involved are categorised accordingly such as pediatrics as in children, middle aged people and geriatrics as in older people along with pregnant women and people with chronic diseases. That is if the tests are going on human medication.

But in this case, as you are all supernatural, my guess is that someone has developed a drug which apparently can affect all the species. And they want to test that on living specimens. So they categorised all the species into five groups which are 

1. Werewolves and Vampires

2. Witches and Fae

3. Fallen angels and Demons

4. Dragons and Lycans

5. Other shape shifters like fox shifters, tiger shifters, panther shifters and lion shifters.

Also, they divided the subjects into five categories, namely first the geriatrics, pediatrics, teens, middle aged and lastly pregnant women. Because supernaturals with chronic diseases are rare, they left it out. And then they started the kidnappings. The five categories from the five different species. For example, in the first three months they kidnapped an elder werewolf (73 yrs), a small witch (12yrs), a teen demon (17 yrs), a young dragon (30yrs) and finally a pregnant fox shifter (2 weeks). They will repeat this cycle for five times for testing the first phase of testing in which they can know the lethal dose of the drug. As you said it started an year ago, they have completed four cycles already with this girl being kidnapped. Now, in the next three months, they will try to retrieve the remaining subjects.  According to my calculation, the next victims might be an old shifter, a werewolf/ vampire child, a witch/fae teenager, a fallen angel/demon warrior and a pregnant dragon/lycan. Unfortunately, there is no frequency or order to determine who will be kidnapped first and also we are not sure of their gender. So, we have to see what we can do from now" I completed explaining my analysis. 

By the time I complete the explanation and look at their faces, they were all sitting there with their mouths open. I chuckle and say "close your mouth guys or you will catch flies". That got them out of their shock. I turned to Xander who was looking at me with a hint of pride and awe in his eyes. When I look at the other two, they both were also looking at me with the same expressions. I snapped my fingers in front of their faces which got them out of their stupor. John whistled and said "Goddess Xandy, you are a lucky bastard! You got a beautiful and a very smart mate and luna, from now I'm gonna call you genius" to which Andrew also agreed. Xander was about to say something when suddenly my stomach growled. I cover my face with embarrassment. John and Andrew both left the room laughing out loud. Xandy gently removed my hands from my face, leaned to whisper in my ear saying "let's go get some food for you my smart luna."
