The Tribrid

I'm coming for you

 
  Luther's POV
    I stay in the room with Emily's body, too afraid to leave it alone. My prize is just within reach, Im not going to let anything happen to her.  I have the Tribrid, she just needs to complete her transition and then wake up. I'm staring at her pale skin.  I comb her hair behind her ear and breathe in her scent. It's changed since we first found her. It's more mellow now. The door opens causing me to jump.
    "It's just me." Bethany says as she walks in.
    "How long does it take?" She asks looking over Emily's body.
    "A few days I think. Although I'm not actually sure, the rules are different for her. She's one of a kind." I say.
    "Can't you just drink it now?" She asks.
    "No! She has not yet completed her transition." I say.
    "Fine, but how are you going to keep her contained once she wakes up?" She asks.
    "I have them building a cage as we speak." I say.
    "Well I'm not just going to sit around in a room with a dead body in it. I'm going to go on patrol."
    "Why bother? No one knows where we are."
    "You never know." She says as she leaves the room. Alone with the Tribrid once again. I know it probably going to be a couple days, but I am not going to miss this opportunity.
    Some time later the door swings open again. It's Bethany, again.
    "What now?" I ask.
    "We have a problem." She says
    "What is it?"
    "Dragons." She says.
   
    Arthur's POV
    "We are taking too long." I say.
    "We have a full army and dragons to move. Did you think we would get there in an hour?" Gavin teases.
    "No, I just thought we could do better than this." I say.
    "Boys stop fighting for once in your lives. We are so close to our goal. Just keep it together." Gesenia says. I guess she is right. We are close, so close to our fulfillment.
   
    Liam's POV
    I feel hollow, broken, like something important is missing inside me. All I can think about is getting Emily back. I don't want to talk to anyone, I don't want to do anything, I just want my mate back, now.
    "What if she doesn't want us anymore?" Lucas asks.
    "What? Of course she will. She's our mate." I tell him.
    "But she's the Tribrid now. She'll be powerful and we'll just be us. And she'll live forever."
    "Stop! Let's just get her back and worry about that later." I say. He huffs into the back of my mind. Marcus is talking to Mia and Cyran about the weapons. I just want to get to where Emily is.
    "Can we go already?" I blurt out. Everyone looks at me. I would too. I must seem like a di**. But I'm feeling anxious, like I can't breathe.
    "Yeah. We can head out now." Marcus says. Mia, Peter, and Cyran grab the weapons and we all head for the front room.
    "Ok, Mia can take Angela. Peter can take Marcus and I can take Liam." Cyran says. I just nod in agreement. I stand next to Cyran and he wraps his arm around me and picks me up. It's a strange feeling to be this close to him and to be picked up so easily.
    "Close your eyes." He says. I close my eyes and feel the air whip passed us. I felt my body being whipped around and then we stop. I feel like I'm going to be sick. I've never gotten used to that. I place my hands on my knees, and bend down.
    "You alright?" Cyran asks.
    "Yeah, I'll be fine." I say staring at the ground. After a moment the nausea passes. I stand up straight.
    "Better?" He asks.
    "Yeah."
    "Good, because I was just taking a break. We have a few more hours to go." I stand next to him and he lifts me up again. I close my eyes and I feel the wind again. It feels like we are traveling forever before he stops again. This time was a bit better, but it was still a lot of movement for me. We meet up with the others.
    "What do we do now?" Cyran asks.
    "We need to find Miranda if she's here yet." Marcus says.
    "Are we at Luther's location?" I ask.
    "Yes, but he has an entire army. And there's more bad news.. the pures are on their way." Marcus says. I look around for Luther's camp. Marcus gestures in a direction through some bushes. While the others wait to hear back from Miranda, I want to take a look at where my mate is. I peak through the bushes and see a large building, surrounded by tents. Don't worry Emily, I'm coming for you, but where are you?
    "Miranda should be here soon, and she has a plan." Marcus says. She better have a plan. I'm not sure how much longer I can hold myself back.
