The first thing we did was to steal uniforms, even though the pack wolves had cleared away the dead body and had probably buried them somewhere within the pack, we could easily steal from the border patrols. So that was what we did.

We appeared like ghosts a few minutes before dawn killing the few border patrols and having some of our men take their places then we snuck into the pack, they might have been prepared for our first attack but they weren't prepared for the second. They probably thought we would still be licking our wounds but we already had enough time to heal. We were warriors after all.

First, we looked for their most treasured weapon and it was not hard to find. The warehouse where the vaporized bane was kept was heavily guarded by pack warriors wearing oxygen masks.

I crouched in the forest with the few people that surrounded me and looked at the warehouses wondering why they, werewolves needed so many vaporized wolf bane. Were they planning to start a war against their kind? I wondered as I thought about the four warehouses we had seen when we were surrounding the pack.

"What should we do now?" I heard one of the wolves with me ask.

From the moment they agreed to follow me, I could not only hear their thoughts through the link if not well guarded, I could also give an order to everyone at once through the link.

"Let's burn them to the ground." I said through the link enough for everyone to hear. If we set it on fire, the heat would burst open whatever it was they stored the wolf bane in, and before they knew what was happening, a lot of concentrated wolf bane would be in the air, suffocating and poisoning everyone in this pack.

Then the neighboring packs would know that the Grata Night pack had dug the pit of their own death, their greed probably caused a fire and killed everyone in the pack. They would say. I smiled as the thought of it was satisfying. No one would know of our involvement except the alpha of Grata night course who I would allow to watch the show before killing.

"Make sure no one escapes the moment the air becomes diffused." I said through the link and they all agreed.

"The moment the commotion starts, four of us would go get Ramon, the rest of you, gather as much food as you can. Those at the border can keep the people in." I reissued orders and they nodded.

"Let's begin."

.............

The first sound of commotion came from far away. It was a loud explosion followed by screams of fleeing people. The second explosion followed, then the third, before the warehouse in front of me exploded.

Two of the dark knights had earlier snuck to the window with manually lit fire, avoiding the patrols, they threw the fire in. the place must have been highly flammable because it didn't take long for the explosion to happen.

"Foolish wolves." Rieka said as we watched the pack wolves run helter-skelter for some minutes before vomiting blood and dying.

The only people who seemed unaffected by the toxic atmosphere were the guards who were in masks but even they were injured by the force of the explosion.

"Kill those guards." I mind-linked the others before turning around and running towards the alpha's home.

No one paid any attention to me or the four warriors who ran with me. People were busy running for their lives while others were falling dead.

"This is a really easy way to finish people off." I said to Rieka as I walked towards the Alpha's front door.

When we came here the first time, we tried to sneak in through the window like thieves, this time we were walking in through the front door.
