I Play Alone

Chapter four

I came out of my past and stared at the wall in front of me. I sighed and rubbed my eyes.

Now with the three to-be pack members, one of which was from the Slayer Society, I could feel the upcoming battle. Though the feeling of relief consumed me, a slight feeling of dread sat at the back of my mind.
I guess spending two years living with someone even the slightest of attachments will happen. One person in particular popped into mind.

Down in the basement were all prisoners were held, there was a young boy. He was barely 14 yet he was so dangerous. I would visit when all, but the guards, were asleep. Or so I thought.

One night i planned to go to him. As i was going down the hall Kamelle pushed me against the wall.

"Where are you going?" She asked me.

"I-I wanted to go to outside. The stars are really bright tonight." I said, hoping she would dismiss me.

"I could believe that if the doors where this way. Raven you think I haven't noticed you sneaking off to the basement? I'm your sister Raven. I'm worried about what you're doing. Why are you lying to me?"

"I don't know what your talking about? Going to the basement? Why would I do that?"

"Don't act stupid Raven. I followed you. I've been following you for three nights now. Each time you would go straight to the basement. Who's in there that you need to talk to so  badly? A friend from before you joined us? Forget about your old life Raven. Realise that all you have now is us. Whatever you had before is over and we are your pack now." She shoved me in the the wall once more before releasing me.

"Oh and your little friend, Azriah? He will be gone tomorrow so I wouldn't bother going down there anymore. Good night, sister." And with that she left me with cold dread and an impenetrable hate for her.

Azriah. I'm sorry you got mixed in this battle. I'll make it right I swear.

I sighed and shook my head. I met Azriah two years ago. When I first infiltrated this pack. He was my only friend here and after that day I never saw him again. I got up and gathered clothes. I wasn't going to let an old memory force real news to the back of my mind. I was on a mission to figure out who Zach really was and what we were to do to take down this pack.

I let the water run down my back. I used a specially made body wash to mask the scent of what I really was. I wasn't a werewolf. Not a full one anyway. I stood there a while longer and thought of what I planned to say to Zach. My mind raced with wild ideas about how he was testing me, waiting for me to go against the pack so he could report to the alpha. These thoughts ran through my head until the water ran cold.

I walked down the halls and couldn't get my mind off the thought of Azriah. I use to walk down these halls every night to go see him. I think I'm sad that I'm not going to see who I really want to.

I stood in front of Zach's room door. Without hesitation I walked in and was immediately attacked. A fist flew at my face that I easily caught. Another came my way but instead of aiming for my face the fist rammed into my stomach. I refrained from bending over. The hand flew my way again, this time grabbing my hair and turning me around. The hand clutched in my grip escaped my grasp and wrapped around my wrist. My arm was pulled in an uncomfortable position. I could feel my body being pulled to a chest.

"What are you doing in my room?" Zach whispered in my ear.

"Making a late night visit." I replied.

"That's charming, but I'm not interested in perverts." He chuckled.

"How am I a pervert. I'm younger than you."

"Don't assume my age. I'm only fifteen. One year younger than you." He twisted my arm a bit more.

"Whatever." I crashed my head into his than. His hand loosened and I slammed I elbow his crotch, then his stomach, and lastly his face. Out of his grasp I closed the door and locked it. "We are going to talk about May 10th."

Zach was hunched over on his bed. He gasp before saying "Ow, Jesus Christ on a stick, Fuck that hurt." He looked up at me. "May 10th? What about it? We attack this pack and you kill Alpha Deavalo."

"Of course that's the objective, but what's the plan and why now? It's been two years" I questioned.

"You had to establish a foundation of trust. As for why, the Slayer Society is starting the next step to take down the Alpha Allegiance. On may 10th a complete attack will be set forth on all three main packs. We will strike from the inside."

"Is it just me and you attacking. That's suicide!" I nearly cried out.

"Hell no, of course not. First we'll create a distraction. Then we will start our attack from the inside. After we do that will create a signal calling forth the outer attack strike team. Each plant inside the packs will attack on May 10th so the other three packs can't be warned of an attack." Zach explained.

"Why two weeks? Wouldn't it we be better off setting a attack sooner?"

"We were giving two weeks to build a trust foundation and to come up with a plan of attack."

"Are Danny and Jo a part of this?"

"Yeah."

"Why do you think your pack is doing your blooding ritual in two weeks? Don't you think it would be easier to do it sooner and have it out of the way?"

"I honestly don't know the answer to that question. I agree that it would be easier. And for it to be two days after our planned attack. It doesn't seem coincidental. Do you think it's a threat?"

"I consider everything a threat." I said seriously.

"Damn, not only do you ask a lot of questions, you also are stone cold. I have to admit that that's really hot. Oh. Maybe that's the real reason you came here." Zach's voice suddenly got deep and husky.

"Don't flatter yourself. I had no intention of sleeping with you. I came here only for information. We will not meet tomorrow night. I will come again in three days. Make sure anyone else that is included in the inner strike is here. Good night."  Silently I walked out of Zach's room, but not before saying "Fifteen year olds seem to have gotten a lot taller."

"Yeah and perverts seem to have gotten a lot younger." Zach replied.

"Whatever. Don't touch yourself too much. It reduces stamina." I closed the door behind me.
