The Broken Myth

Chapter Three

                                                                       Axel

Walking down the hallway I can hear the yelling coming from the boarding room. I Take a deep breath and push open the door. The room becomes silent.  

"Morning Gentlemen." I say as I enter taking a seat. Everyone says morning back. 9:05 am and I have no clue how long this meeting is going to take. 

Ruben is the first to speak. "Axel Sir, We are in a bit of a disagreement." Only 16  but the quickest to react. 

"Well, speak of this disagreement." I demand. I have a raging headache so the faster this can be dealt with the better. 

"Okay, well as Collin informed you, the pack north of New York has gone missing. The one remaining werewolf says they were attacked by... Fairies. We have the leaders from  the Street pack, the South pack, the West pack and the East pack. Everyone agrees that the subject might have been on something to make him hallucinate the fairies. Except for Bella." Ruben finishes explaining and glares at Bella, the West pack leader. Why would Bella Disagree? She usually goes along with what everyone says. Then again, she is usually right in what she believes to be the truth. 

"Okay. Was her idea shot down or did you actually listen to her?" I ask. Ruben stammers, probably trying to come up with an excuse for not listening to her. I roll my eyes. "I think Everyones ideas should be heard Ruben."

 "B-but sir! It can't be true! Fairies Don't exist!" He exclaims trying to make a point that is valid, but at the same time it's important to hear others out. I look over to Bella and nod to give her the go ahead. Out of the corner of my eye I can see Ruben sit back down in his chair with his arms crossed. Bella stands up and starts explaining herself. 

"Following onto what Ruben has said. The Northern Pack has gone missing and the subjects explanation to this is Fairies. Now for decades werewolf's have lived in peace in separate packs across New York. However there's an old Myth of Fairies that we all believe is just some silly story, but have we ever thought that maybe it isn't? That maybe they really do exist? Maybe they actually were sent to some other dimension by our ancestors. Maybe they covered it up and through the decades we just started believing in a lie. Maybe this myth is real. If we found the fairies then this myth would be broken! We would have discovered another species besides humans and werewolf's! It would make a huge stamp in our history!"

 Everyone was silent after her speech. I think they're  all thinking the same thing. Maybe she's right. Then Ruben starts laughing. "Are you guys actually believing any of this?! Fairies aren't real and that's final. Our main concern should be setting people up by our territories around the clock to make sure no more packs go missing. Then we should send out some travel packs to hunt for whoever took the Northern pack." He says this like he's the new boss around here.

 I clear my throat. " Ahem. I'm sorry Ruben, I'm having a hard time understanding when you became the pack leader." 

He looks at me startled. It's a tough call for me to make on my own but we need to make one either way. "I think a vote will suffice." I proclaim. Everyone looks at me with shock. I barley say that we should make votes but this time I think it's necessary. 

"Alright, raise your hand if you think we should believe in the fairies and look into the myth more." There are two hands that go up. Bella's hand from the west pack and Scott's hand from the south pack. "Okay, raise your hand for Ruben's plan." I say. Ruben's hand obviously goes up, Clint's hand goes up from the streets pack and Octavia's hand goes up from the east's pack. 2/3. "Ruben's Plan wins."

 "YES! HECK YEAH!"  Ruben exclaims standing up cheering that his plan won. Everyone rolls their eyes. This is why he rarely comes to our meetings. I eye him and he obviously notices because he sits down immediately with embarrassment for his actions. Bella raises her hand to speak and I nod at her to give her the go ahead again. 

"I would like to contribute my search party to look for the northern pack due to the fact my pack has the best hyper senses." She has a fair point. I look at the other pack leaders and they all nod their heads. 

"It's confirmed. Bella's pack will be our search party." I state.  

 Ruben speaks up next. "Okay I believe that leaves everyone else's packs to set up around and defend our packs. For our family's & friends, we took an oath and must follow through." 

We all nod at each other. "Dismissed." I say. Everyone gathers up their bags and evacuates the room. Let's hope that no other packs go missing. I hold Ruben back by tugging on his shirt. He turns around with a confused look. "Sir? What's wrong?" he asks.

 "I hope you realize... that it couldn't have been the humans that took them leaving us with the only other options. Fairies." I say. He looks at me shocked and confused. 

"Sir- They don't exist. We'll find who took them but it can't be the fairies." He says reassuring himself more than me.
