For The Better [1]

Chapter 5: Sweetheart

I don't know how much time passed as we all sat there in silence, all of them being witnesses to me killing off Robin, blood spattering the ground and me alike. There was only a mere blackened spot in the grass where her body had laid, disintegrated into ash and her memory seeming to be swept away from existence. The storm that had been endlessly pouring cold rain onto us seemed to lessen to give off a dull drizzle. It had washed the blood from my fur, the evidence on me only now being the single reddened eye that accompanied my emerald one. No one spoke in the crowd, but I knew that they were glad that Robin was gone for good. It was a like a wolf pack and I had taken back the position of Alpha in the ranks, I just had never known when I had lost my authority in the first place. Perhaps it was when I had lost my will of live all those months ago when the man I had loved got up and walked out of my life forever, but I never really questioned it until now. The deed was done and the fight was over. I stood up, making everyone in the crowd look up to see me turn my back and walk away from this place. The crowd parted, letting me pass as I began to step away from this place and forget the pain and turmoil that had happened. My right eye stung with the feeling of boiling blood within it. It seemed restless now.

There was another wave of murmurs and growls that went through the circle behind me, making me turn my head and look back to see what was going on out of the corner of my eye and I was met with none other than the devil himself - Tom. I knew it wasn't actually him, I wasn't the gullible one now, but it painfully similar. He stared at me in the center of the crowd, smirking at me with this mocking grin, his eyes only yellow slits in the darkness of his eyeballs. "Hello, sweetheart." He sneered at me, expecting to get a kick out of me by doing this. Morph was now showing his power off, which had never happened before. Everyone was displeased, knowing that the man that Morph was portraying had betrayed our family long ago. I tilted my head back and gave a laugh, a laugh a crazy person would make that echoed through the yard and caused everyone to immediately silence. I think I even surprised him a little by doing this. I shifted into my human form, turning on my heels and giving him a grinning smirk of my own. "Do you honestly think that shaping into him is going to break me, Morph?" I said to him, my tone showing various emotions such as amusement and irritation, "You are such an idiot sometimes, I wonder why I haven't had Ryuu kill you yet." To that, Ryuu stood up among the crowd, snarling at Morph as he prepared to attack him, but I simply raised a hand. "Stop, Ryuu, not yet." I commanded him, making the male back away like a trained dog, "You will have your chance, everyone will have your chance to get your revenge on him." At my words, they all looked at me in confusion, but I only smiled, knowing my plan of action now and forever.

"Vore, Sebastian." I called the two sabers and they stood up at my attention, knowing that I was calling the shots now, "Restrain him. Everyone follow me. I don't know about you, but I would rather take this inside and get out of this horrid rainstorm for a while." To that, everyone agreed with a few nods here and there. I wasn't surprised when Morph heard me command the two sabers, he tried to run, still in the form of the male that had destroyed my meaning of mercy long ago. They quickly noticed this and tackled him with fierce snarls, their powerful paws holding him down in the green grass. Everyone stood up, even the dragons, and followed me back to the mansion. Vore and Sebastian finally got Morph walking between them as they made their way with the others, keeping a watchful eye on each and every move he did in case Morph tried to escape again or even attack someone in the process. I simply hummed to myself as I walked to the back door, heading inside to the pool area to have the final deed be done and have everything had has been hanging over our heads finally be taken care of, forever.
