The Creatures: B-Team {Fan-Fic}

Chapter 6: Tables Turn

The man that has brought this all upon the world, now stands with a mysterious woman. Their feet were planted on a balcony, looking out on a landscape of snow. They could even see their breathe in the harsh weather.

"You've helped me a lot," She said. "But your services are no longer needed."

"You promised me that we'd be in this together!" He protested.

She kept her eyes locked on the distant mountains. "I rarely keep promises."

"You told me we would rule the world. Even worse, you told me you loved me!"

A demonic smile met her lips. "I lied."

Her voice was even colder than the air. After the words left her mouth, he started to get angry and walk towards her with tight fists. For some reason, she wouldn't even flinch.

"I should've never trusted you, you bit-"

His words were cut off by a sword going strait through his chest. Then, he was pushed off the balcony and Sapphire stood in his place.

The two women looked down to see his blood sink in the snow. Wolves started to move in on his body.

"So, what now?" Sapphire asked.

"I'm taking full control, and the first step; throw in a rotten apple."

Later that night.  

Sapphire walked down the candle lit prison. She found Sly's cell. Ze was asleep, but the fox wasn't. He looked up at her and then straight back down to his hands.

"What do you want?" He whispered.

She examined his twirling hands. "What's in your hands?"

Sly threw it across the floor to her. She reached down in between the bars to see it was a locket. Upon opening it, she saw a picture of Natalie. Sapphire delicately set it back on the prison floor for Sly to pick up.

"Her name is Natalie, right?" She asked.

"Yeah, but how do you know that?" He spoke, standing up.

Sapphire was hesitant to answer. "The night I attacked you guys, I had to go in her house."

Without skipping a beat, Sly grabbed her neck through the bars.

"I swear to God," He said with gritted teeth. "If you touched her."

"I didn't!" Sapphire said, struggling away.

Sly released his grip and she fought to catch her breathe.

"I'm sorry, but I was the one that made her dump you."

This time she stayed far away, but Sly wanted to kill her.

"It's a damn good thing I'm behind these bars." He said.

"Please, don't blame me. My boss made me!"

"Who exactly is your boss?" He asked.

"I can't say," She replied. "But she sent me down here to get you. If your willing to cooperate, we can just get it over with and you'll get your question answered."

He sighed. "Fine."

Sapphire unlocked the cell carefully. Just for precaution, she still placed cuffs on his wrists. Sly looked back and forth between the cells as they walked down the corridor. It seemed they were all empty, except the ones the team had been in. There was no sign of Koorta, Danz, or Seamus.

"Where are the others?" He asked.

"I don't know to be honest. I do know we have Danz and Kootra somewhere in this building." She said.
