From Demigods to Werewolves

Chapter 53: Atlantia

"I need to get Brett to Deaton," I say looking at Brett. I could tell he was dying from whatever Violet had injected into Brett to make him paralyzed but I didn't have the energy to fix him unless I wanted to lose my hold on the shield.

"Go," Scott says, "We can handle the police." I nod before I pick up Brett and begin to carry him out to my car. Isaac and Allison saw me struggling as they came down the hall so they quickly rushed to help me. They helped me carry Brett to my car but I told them I could get him to Deaton alone so we didn't draw attention to us missing which kept the two from climbing into my car. I drove straight to Deaton's office after sending a text to Derek asking him to meet me at Deaton's office.

Derek was already there when I pulled up so he helped me carry Brett into the office but I could tell something was wrong. He had to rely on me to also help him carry like he was losing his wolf strength. Once Brett wasn't dying, I was going to ask him.

Inside the office, Derek and I placed Brett onto the medical table but we had to restrain him so Deaton could do his magic because he began to thrash like crazy which would prevent Deaton giving him the treatment which he was quick to remark.

"He's been poisoned by a rare wolfsbane," Deaton said, "I need to make an incision, and you need to hold him as still as possible." He looks at me, "If you can't hold him still, the incision might kill him." I roll my eyes but use a little bit of my powers to freeze him to the table so Deaton can do the incision.

"He'll be fine, but probably out for a little while." Deaton says once the incision was done. It was then that I saw that Brett was muttering something under his breath.

"I think he is trying to say something." I say leaning closer to him so I could hear what he was saying.

"The sun, the moon, the truth." He muttered, "The sun, the moon, the truth..."

"Three things cannot long be hidden," Deaton says, "The sun, the moon, and the truth. It's Buddhist."

"Satomi." I turn to see Peter had come. I guess it shouldn't have surprised me that he would have came with Derek but I thought he would have helped us.

"Who is Satomi?" I ask.

"The Alpha of Brett's pack." Derek explains.

"I didn't know another wolf pack was in Beacon Hills." I say surprised. Granted, I never looked or asked so there was always the possibility but I just thought Derek may tell me if that was the case.

"There is and the Alpha, Satomi is one of the oldest werewolves alive, and she's learned a lot." Derek says, "She's a bitten Werewolf. Learning control wasn't easy for her but she did something a long time ago that changed her." He pauses before looking at Brett, "I'm guessing the reason that we never knew about Brett, and Demarco is from what she taught them."

"Which is?" I prompt

"Some werewolves have an ability, a kind of mastery over their bodies, where they can actually inhibit their scent." Peter says. "They can hide from anyone who's trying to find them."

"Well, we are going to need to find them to warn them of those who are on the deadpool." I say already feeling the strain of possibly having more people under my protection.

"I'll do it." Derek says, "I'll get Malia to help me since she knows the woods the best." I nod as does Deaton and Peter.

"Well, while you do that, I have someone else to find." Peter says cryptically before disappearing.

"I'll monitor Brett's condition and let you know when he wakes up If he doesn't wake by morning, you should go find the pack." Deaton tells us. I nod before I chase after Derek who left.
