(still) Nathan's POV
"Wait... it doesn't sum up correctly." My mother spoke for the first time. All our gazes fall on her with question.
"How old might this Heiress Knightmare could be?" she asked with her brows akimbo.
"A thousand or more.." Elder Ed answer like it was not a big deal.
"And her mate Jonas?" she asked again.
"If our investigation serves us right his already 57 years old now." The Elder answers.
"So you mean she waited all those years for her mate?" she asked flabbergasted.
"Might be? We also don't know, all we knew is that during those years, no war against our kind had aroused. So the existence of the Knightmare was considered as just a myth, because no one knew where they live or where they can be found, some stories says that the Knightmare live in an invisible highest mountain overlooking all creation." Elder Ed explains.
I frown, something was not right in that story, sure I heard it while I was growing up, but since then, I know it is not true, it was just.. A story, told over time and time. I know no being possess that unholy power of a knightmare that the story says, they say that the Knightmare was an Angel-like being, and nothing can kill them. It doesn't seem right, Sebastian's attack already lasted for years now, why does the Knightmare stay hidden all this years while Sebastian was slaughtering our kind? Im about to ask it when my sister beat me by asking;
"If my memory serves me right, Alpha Dante Mission is from America, this Jonas dude your telling us has a Russian name, it means his a Russian, I don't understand that story, is it just me, or that story is really has many plot hole?" she said, one brow rising, I smirk, yeah she's right, that's one of my wonders too.
"Alpha Dante's mate was a witch, who lived in Russia." Elder Ramon says and sighs.
It silences us all. A witch?
"You gotta be fuckin kidding me." Jake mutters earning a glare from his mate.
"Witch doesn't exist." My sister says, earning a laugh from the elders
"They sure does, sweetie." Elder Ramon says afterward. Knightmare and Witches? What's next? flying fucking unicorn?
"A'right, enough of this." I said with finality.
"If this Knightmare really does exist, where the heck is she now? And are you telling us that our only hope is this unknown being whose existence is still debatable?" I asked.
"Yes. Although we don't know why she remain hidden throughout these years."
"Maybe because she's a myth?" my sister murmur earning a glare from mom.
"If that Knightmare was really our only hope, where should we find her?" my father spoke for the first time.
"I am guessing that she's hiding because if she is not, she already validate her existence and help us with Sebastian's case." He added while looking at the elders.
"Actually I've been dying to ask this, is that Knightmare still really alive? Yes, a Knightmare was indestructible, but, her mate is not, which happen to be -as the story goes- her only weakness, what if her mate died and she's also dead by now?" I added, I can't bottle up my thought any longer.
"Well, there's only one answer to that. Let's find her." Elder Ed says, "And to answer your question Alpha James. It's the reason why we are here, we have this..." Elder Ed said while Elder Ramon places the suitcase from his side to the center table in front all of us. He opens the suitcase and I can see five necklaces with uniform bullet shape diamond-like pendant shinning green.
"What is that?" my mother asked, I am sure she was awed to see such big unique shinning emerald. Well, all girls in this room are.
"It's a fairy's stone coated by their magic and whatnot." Elder Ramon says with a wave in his hand, like he already explains this a thousand times and it's already irritating and boring him.
"It can identify any magical creatures by changing their light once they detect their presence, well, like now, it can detect werewolves and werewolves are nature being, and so the stone lights green." He further explains while picking up one piece and held it in the air.
"It changes color?" Maris asked excitedly. "It's like an upgrade tracking device!" she add.
"Yes, it does. Werewolves are green, as you all can see, fae are blue, witches are red, vampires; this will turn deep silver, and human are just pure translucent." He said and looks at me.
"And the Knightmare?" I asked.
"This will turn golden yellow." Elder Ed answer.
I look at the little stone that shine deep green like a deep forest; it looks like it's pulsating, like it was matching Elder Ramon's heartbeat. I am amazed by the thing and to the one, who made it; fairies are really magical creatures, too bad they are not immortals.
"We are here to seek your help, Alpha, we are in need of strong trackers to help us find the Knightmare, and we will start in Russia, we have a lead of Jonas Romonov in there. Her foretold mate."
This stops my thought as I looked at the Elder, so this is the reason of their visit, to seek my help; my pack has the greatest trackers in North America, plus the fact that I swore an oath of allegiance to support the Council if they ever seek my help. They knew I will help them. And I will, even if this mission was not clear enough for me, the fact that the council is willing to gamble their chances, I will too. I am willing to help find this missing or lost Knightmare if she is the only chance of making this chaotic world in balance again.
"Okay, we're in." I said and give the Elder a small smile that patiently waits for my reply. I hear them both sigh and give each other a knowing smile before they face us again.
"Were leaving the next day, we will meet our troupe that the other elders can get in the airport." Elder Ed says. Wow, they work fast. I feel something's happening, but I can pinpoint my gut what it is, so meanwhile I just nod at them.
"Okay. I'm bringing four of my best tracker with us." I said I will not bring Keith and Jake with me; I don't want to weaken my pack while I am away. I just hope this will be worth it and we are not just chasing our tails in this. Or everything will be a total fiasco.
A/N: we will continue using Nathan's POV until Tamara is in the circle. it will avoid much confusion. just remember that Tammie knows nothing about the ongoing war and the knightmare explanation.
