Dark Familiars

Chapter 35

I open my eyes slowly. I sit up and rub my head. What the hell happened? My head is killing me. "Gray?" I ask. Silence. "Gray?" I ask through the bond. Silence. Where is he? I turn my head and see the room trashed and the drywall had holes. What the fuck? I get up and open the door. I see blood on the floor. "George?!" I yell. "Shelby! Scout!" I yell. No one was answering. I feel my stomach drop. I run into my room. The sheets were open. I look around for any weapons. They were all gone besides my sword. I pick it up and change quickly into my gear. I then silently go down stairs. The kitchen had broken plates, cups, and food everywhere. Were we robbed? So many questions went through my head. I didn't know what was happening. I go to the living room. Shelby and Scout laid there. I shake Shelby awake. She didn't wake up. I then see the blood stain in her shirt. I cover my mouth and walk away. I back hits the wall and I fall down to my knees. What happened? "Gray please answer." I link to him. "T-taylor, g-get out of t-there." His faint voice sounding weak. "What do you mean!? Are you ok!" I yell. "There is a motor bike outside. Get out! Now!" He screams through the bond. My eyes widen as I smell the scent of gasoline. I run out of the house in the front. The night sky blanketed the sky with stars. I turn my head seeing the black bike. I was shaking. I then see a man walking up the drive way. His face so familiar. I get onto the bike and turn it on. I turn it on. The man started running towards me. His hood falls revealing his face. I feel tears form in my eyes. A lighter in his hand. "Taylor!" He yells. George runs to me and tries to grab me. I shake my head and grip the bike and drive away. I hear George cursing behind me. Then I see the house come to flames. Burning my dear friends I didn't get to know and all the memories I once enjoyed with a beast that shall die.

-Gray

I slowly open my eyes. It felt like hours I've been in this car. I was in my wolf form. My heightened vision kicking in. I was in a crate. A huge one. Used for the circus. I was in the back of a vehicle. I then hear a laugh. "Good morning.." A males voice says smiling. I couldn't see who it was. It was too dark. A streak of light escaped a small window on the right side of the vehicle. He steps for out. I back against the cage. How did he know where I was? Why is he here? Mr.Sacros stood before me. I change into my human form and stand up. My legs wobble under me. My shirt soaked in blood. Mine and someone else. "Where is she? If you hurt her I swear to god-" I begin to say until he puts a hand up. "You better be kind to me. She is gone. Left when the house burned down. My son couldn't get her. I would guess she realized what was happening but then you come in to play and told her leave. It makes sense." He explains. What used to be a head full of brown curly hair was now a buzz cut. He was still a tall, lean man. He was wearing gear which was a black trench coat with black pants. A weird symbol was on a patch on his right arm. In his hand was a small knife. "Now where would Ms. Taylor be going?" He asks smiling. "Like ill tell you." I answer. "Well you see, the thing is I can't kill you. Not until I get Taylor. So this is going to be really painful." He says. Then the most familiar smirk comes to his face. A smirk that only his sons could have.

-Mr.Jackel

I sit in my office. I look at the read email I sent George. Taylor read it but didn't answer. How odd? I feel my phone vibrate. I take it out of my pocket. Speak of the devil. "Hello." I say. "Mr.Jackel.. They took Gray! They have him!" Taylor says frantically. I feel myself pale. "What do you mean Taylor, who has Gray?" I ask. "George. You need to send people to his apartment to search it. George took Gray, killed Shelby and Scout, and sent the house to flames. Now there hurting Gray. I know it." She says so fast. I couldn't even catch everything. I hear a car horn. "Taylor are you driving?" I ask. "I'm on a motorcycle. Gray told me to leave the house because he knew the house was going to catch fire. I'm now riding this thing." She answers. Her breath hitches. "Send someone to Georges house. Take Henry and question him. I need to get far before I can stop." She informs me. "Ok-ok calm down Ms. Taylor. They can't kill Gray they need him and you for something. That's why your still alive." I try to tell her calmly. I gulp down a ton of saliva. This is what happened many years ago. I don't know what they are trying to do but lets hope it doesn't work.
