The Werecats Revenge

Chapter thirtyfour ~ Unedited

Tyler's POV

Jay paced around the meeting room, his eyes tired and red with dark bags decorating under his eyes. He looked completely lost in his thoughts. His golden eyes no longer glowed with life, they were dull and bland.

I couldn't say i looked any better than him. My eyes were red and puffy.

We both hadn't slept for what seemed like days. Scarlett and Nikki were still missing.

We couldn't make a move until we had confirmation. We couldn't attack. We just had to stay still and wait. Wait for something to happen, like we had been waiting for the past few days.

A knock on the door startled me but not Jay, he kept his eyes glued to the floor and his pacing continued.

His father walked in, his face tense and his hand gripping the door so tight that his knuckles turned white.

Our eyes connected and i knew he was going to inform us about something.

Fear began to grow in the pit of my stomach and so many thoughts began swarming through mu head.

Scarlett is dead.

Nikki is dead.

"Tyler, we found Nikki." He paused and looked at Jay who had now stopped pacing, his golden eyes held some kind of hope, "She's in the infirmary..."

I couldn't hear anymore, my heart was racing in my chest. Beating against my rib cage. It was so loud i could hear it in my ears.

My feet slammed against the floorboards as i tried to maneuver around people so I wouldn't bump into them.

I paused once i got to the infirmary.

Her smell hit me instantly, but it was mixed with blood and dirt.

My walking slowed down and once i got to her door my heart stopped.

She was alive. Alive and well.

I walked in slowly and carefully to not wake her up.

But her eyes opened almost instantly. Her cheek was swollen and her lip was busted open but other than that she was fine

"Tyler" she groaned out.

I couldn't hold myself back, I practically pounced on her.

"Nikki, i thought they killed you" i mumbled into her neck.

She wrapped her frail arms around my neck and pulled me closer.

"Tyler i missed you so much. I thought i would never see you again" she whimpered into my ear.

Someone cleared their throat and i quickly pulled away. Nikki looked at me with a confused frown before looking at the intruder.

Lauren stood at the doorway, tears running down her face like a river, "Nikki."

Nikki's eyes widen with confusion but she still jumped out of bed and ran towards her mother, wrapping her arms around her.

"Momma" she sobbed loudly burying her head into her mothers chest.

Lauren wrapped her arms around her child and cried out loud.

Both of them fell to the ground, their loud sobs filling the small room.

"Nikki, Nikki i missed you" Lauren pulled away and grabbed Nikki's face examining it before kissing her forehead.

"Mom" Nikki sobbed out not knowing how to form the right words.

I stood back, not wanting to intterupt the moment.

"Nikki" Jay's voice startled us.

Nikki looked up at him, but continued to hug her mother.

"Nikki where's Scarlett" Jay asked, his voice cracking a bit.

Nikki looked away quickly, diverting her eyes to the ground, "She couldn't come with me..." she paused and looked at me. Regret in her eyes.

Jay stood still for a minute before looking at me, "Confirmation on the attack has come through but" he looked at Nikki, "We need you to tell us where they're hiding."

Nikki's nodded her head and looked at her mom.

The attack was on, we were getting Scarlett back.
