The Dark Age: Lineage Book 2

Chapter 8: A Promotion- Danny Parker January 13th.

So in order to eat and gain meals within this new society of werewolves I have to join the pack. Only thing is I have no idea what the heck they are going to make me do. Your usually assigned your pack after the age of 18 but I was still in my families. In other words I got the meals and stuff without having to risk my life. Oh what fun I see a fight pit with a nice shiny cage big enough to fit just about any type of monster. You shouldn't have guys it's not like I'm still a Beta or anything oh wait I am and I've been a Beta for about 3 years and my parents didn't teach me shit so I have to use my own knowledge of my powers to win this.
-Hey Danny you don't have to rely on just what you have. You have to remember I have to keep you alive at all costs to insure my survival!-
Pesacistic and Optimistic now that's a combo I can get behind since I don't know how to use your powers if I need you I'll let you take the reigns okay?
-Wait seriously you'll let me have control?-
Yeah sure as long as you help out I have no problem with it.
-Sweet this should be fun.-
As soon as those last words left Tyler's mouth the fire lit that means showtime.
A big bald guy who sort of looked like Vin Diesel but not as menacing. He was more of a saw him on TV and said I wanna be just like him then goes and gets plastic surgery done but he was running low on funds so he went to one of those off the books ones that are done in the back of a gas station but then go slightly wrong because the guy/girl we don't judge, never finished med school and went on to do bootleg plastic surgery.
Wow I need to stop hanging out with James all the time.
"Danny Parker!", Bootleg Vin Diesel shouted.

What he said my real name weird usually they say my wolf name Arris.
I stepped fourth and kneeled like a knight bowing to his king.
"What the hell are you doing?" , He said looking at me weird.
"Get your ass up we don't do that shit here what is this the 1990s?"
"Oh okay, my bad so um what do we do?", I asked. Well you jump down there and fight 3 rounds best 2 out of 3 win all 3 and go up to ranks.
"Sounds easy enough what am I fighting."
"Let's not spoil the fun."
He pats me on the back then shoves me into the pit. Okay let's see I could. I didn't even get to think before I hit the ground. I got up and surveyed the damage there's a bit of a Danny sized whole where I landed. Couple of bruises on the leg nothing to bad.
"Round 1!"
"Wait what?"
Another wolf pounced at my throat. His teeth sank into my neck. I could feel the life slowly draining from my body. I pried him off. I call foul play I wasn't even given enough time to shift to my wolf form.
Like these people would give a damn if I had a complaint. Okay fine if that's how were gonna play it I'll play. I shifted as I ran getting ready to jump him then as he went for a dodge I quickly changed back took off my necklace and shanked him with Shane's tooth. I had a fang of a Vampire of one of the most powerful beast Lineages of all time at least according to Shane let's hope he wasn't just showing off. A few seconds later His blood was drained the tooth had become red a deep passionate red  only obtainable when blood has no where to go no veins attached, he fell to the ground shifting back to his human form. It was a kid, maybe 10 or 12 years old he had short military cut blonde hair. He was maybe about 4'11 wearing a Mirrors Edge t-shirt. A witch came running in to heal him up. Even if he was going to be fine no matter what maybe I should have taken it a bit easier on him. I mean it's not everyday a Werewolf has a Mirrors Edge t-shirt on. We could of been friends if I didn't just mess him up. As he was slowly getting up. My mind flashed and I was no longer in the pit I was standing in front of a fire place. Full of rage and anger holding a small purple silver banded ring in my hand. There was a kid begging for his life on the floor and I held his life in my hand and what did I do? I threw it I watched it burn in the fire as it engulfed in flames. As the fire danced around the ring. Devouring it, when all of the sudden the boy was gone and for a full minute it had looked like I had taken his life. I had taken his life. I had taken his life away from him forced him to make a choice of death or being my hand. He chose my hand but do I really even deserve it? I lost that hand trying to murder my best friend. I have to make things right and I think I know just what to do first.
---------------------------------------------------------There we go another one done sorry this one took about a month to write but I knew this part was coming and I wanted to sit down and make sure I did this one right Lineage is a story that holds a special place in my heart and I don't want to see it die anytime soon. So I went back and reread all the other chapters a couple of times too see which ones actually felt like Lineage. I also knew that I was going to make the Danny and Tyler dynamic play a different role than just you turned me into a hand. Hopefully I did a good job and please let me know down in the comments if you have any feedback and if you do it is always greatly appreciated okay thanks until the next one bye =D
