Arrow didn't know what tipped him off that something was wrong. He was in the middle of inspecting the newest load of weapons that had been driven in and feeling the itch that came with an impending need to. The full moon was tomorrow.

Alchemy burst through the door, "Sir, we might have a problem."

"There's no such thing as a might when it involves problem, it either is or it isn't so which is it."

"All the devices we set up in Ash's store were just pulled and turned off. Our eyes said she pulled them herself then shut herself in her office."

Before Arrow could react to that particular piece of information Cobalt stalked into the room. "The Hyenas just found out we're here, the lure for that power seems to be to much since i just caught one of their scouts planting a bug. So far I haven't been able to get much information out of him but enough to know their coming and some of them are already here, at least the advanced scouts."

"Fucking hell," Arrow shoved a hand through his hair, "Alchemy set a couple men on Ash and don't let her leave the shop until either Cobalt or I get there. He turned to his twin, we need to call in the men and double the border patrol. I want to know who those other scouts are."

The second thing that tipped him off was when his feet somehow ended pointing up towards the ceiling as he, Cobalt and Alchemy all flew up towards the ceiling feet first. Swinging back and forth he blinked his eyes trying to clear his eyes from the sudden change of perspective. He saw Cobalt doing the same as he attempted to figure out what the hell just happened.

He was hanging from his feet, someone had managed to rig twine around his legs. He yanked letting a small amount of his werewolf power ad yanked, lifting his body up and trying to get to the rope with his claw so he could cut, he heard his twin and third doing the same.

When he finally touched the rope he immediately snatched his hand away when he felt his skin burn, they were made of a fine silver, that was why he couldn't break the flimsy cord.

He heard a chuckle as a man moved into his line of sight, "I can't tell you how easy that was. I've caught two of the most powerful men in the werewolf community in their own home, completely unawares." He took out a knife the light from overhead shone over the pure silver blade.

"Ripply." Arrow snarled, looking up at the five foot six man, Rowan was a hunter, although the human hunters disagreed with that statement because rowan was part snake who's blood could paralyze you, he was still a hunter in everyone eyes. When he set out to catch or kill something he never failed. He was on a lot of people's "Stay out of the way or get killed list."

He was on the twin's "He murdered thirteen allied families and needed to be killed on sight" list.

A few years back before Cobalt and Arrow had met the women who'd forced them to move here to this small town they'd gotten a distress call from an allied pack of deer. Since it was an unspoken law not to kill those who were weaker then you and a wear-deer was about as harmless as you got, it seemed impossible that the distress call was valid and not a teen prank. But they'd checked it out anyway. Thirteen families, the whole pack, fifty-eight bodies, all mutilated beyond any recognition.

It had left a bad taste in Arrows mouth as he'd walked through the carnage, a red haze had covered his vision, these were innocent families.

People who didn't even eat meat, healers. The loss of such life was devastating, his whole pack had been eerily still as they'd combed through the bodies looking for any survivors. The wolves inside of them predatory still, it was a base instinct to protect those who were weaker than himself and these families were their allies, it was a taboo to kill healers, no matter their race, and a pack of them had been lain in cold blood, it was equal to killing children.

Ripply was a sick fucker because his way of interrogating information was raping and torturing the women of the pack s until the men gave up the information, and then he burned them all alive. The only thing he left was a single white silk scarf with his families hunter symbol on it.

Arrow and Cobalt had been the lead scouter on that hunt, searching for him with rage but besides the scarf it was as if a ghost had murdered that family. Now the man who was more a monster than any supernatural creature stood grinning in front of him while he and his brother hung there helpless, the silver already doing it's job and draining his strength.

Arrow bared his fangs at Ripply and growled, "You fucking coward, how about you cut me down and we fight like real men."

"Oh, but there's a problem with that Arrow or Cobalt which ever one you are, I'm not a man and neither are your, I'm a hunter and your my prey."



O_o I totally was not expecting to go this way, mmm wonder what i'll do next, eat an oreo of course with some peanut butter!!!! Yummy!!!! Up top it a picture of Ripply up top. He's got that cold caculatingly scary look about him that screams serial killer possibility right?
