Friend Reunion » Theo Raeken

Part 32

"I'm sorry. He wasn't acting like himself." I said to Corey as I wiped the blood of his neck seeing that the wound healed. I sighed.

"It healed, didn't it?" Corey asked.

"Completely." Lydia answered and we exchanged worried looks.

"Okay, then. It's been fun." Corey stood up. "Especially the part where a werewolf forced his way into my brain with his claws." He was about to leave but I stopped him.

"Trust me, leaving is the last thing you want to do right now. Lydia is a banshee. You know what that is?" Corey shook his head. "Well, it means she can tell when somebody is going to die. Lydia, what is going to happen if Corey leaves right now?" I asked.

"It's bad. Very bad." She lied.

"I'll take my chances." Corey said.

"Then give us a better chance at finding our friends." Theo spoke. "What else did you see? Come on, Corey, there had to be something else."

"There was the hospital and.. they took me outta my room."

"And then where?" Lydia asked.

"The tunnels. Like I already told you. That's it."

"Yeah, nothing after that?" Theo asked.

"No."

"Well, there has to be more. Think. Corey, for one minute just... just think." Theo urged.

Corey sighed and look at the floor.

"There was a basement." He said after a couple of minutes.

"Where? In a building?" I asked.

"A house. It was old, covered in dust and... There was a broken stone wall with a large hole in it. Like a bomb went off."

I looked at Lydia and Theo because I heard it before. We all knew where that is.

"Lydia, the werewolf with the talons... The one who attacked Scott. Didn't Parrish say that he smashed through the wall of a basement? Wasn't it something like that?" Theo asked.

"No. It was exactly that."

I turned to Theo. "We have to go. Lydia, stay here."

"Be careful." She said and hugged me. I just nodded and headed out of the door.

Thank you so, so, SO much for 4K reads.
