Noctis Lupus

One on One

Yuri twisted and turned on the floor. Ever since he had arrived at the city, he has had a feeling like something was out of place. His wolf kept telling him to get away from the place. But Yuri did not know how. Everywhere he looked there would be wolves. He felt like he was in a cage.

He turned and looked at the rest of the group. Yuvin and T'argho were in a deep sleep, untroubled by the worries that Yuri was having. Dimitri and Abraham were on opposite sides of the room, each staring at the other with a stare of death and hate. The only thing keeping them from tearing at each others throats was that they were chained to the wall and floor.

Yuri took a look around the room. The walls were covered in mold and the floor was cracking on multiple areas. It was damp and humid, but it was big enough for the people inside to be able to keep their distance safely.

Yuri carefully got up from the floor, holding on to the wall so that he would be able to keep his balance in the darkness. Slowly, he walked over to a small window that overlooked a small portion of the city. Yuri scanned the area, and was surprised to see no sign of life anywhere in the city. He looked around one last time at the area before him. "Now where the hell have you gone?" Muttered Yuri to himself as he turned and walked back to his corner of the room.

He sat down, carefull not to make too much noise and wake up Yuvin or T'Argho, but was startled as he saw the door smash open with a crash.

"Oh shit the Nazis are here!" Screamed Yuvin as he jumped up from his sleep. T'Argho reached up and pushed Yuvin to the side.

"It ain't the fucking Nazis you idiot. It's that wolf." Said T'Argho as he sat up from the floor and turned to face Firefang. "The hell do you want?"

Firefang looked at T'argo before giving him a loud growl. He squinted his eyes as he scanned the room until his gaze fell upon the person he was looking for. Firefang walked over to Abraham, whose gaze never left Dimitri.

Firefang reached down and unlocked the chains using his claws, then grabbed hold of Abraham by the neck until his eyes met with his. "She wants to see you." Firefang set him down, then pushed him forwards.

Yuvin looked up at Abraham with tired eyes. "Good luck old friend."

Abraham glared at Yuvin as he passed him, then smiled as he remembered that he would not have to be close to Dimitri for some time.

"The priestess is nobody to be trifled with." Said Firefang as they exited the holding cells and entered the desolate streets.

"Where exactly are we going, Firefang?" Asked Abraham as he was pushed on farther past the streets. He looked around to look at Firefang, but could only see a small part of him as his fur blended in with the dark.

"Up there," Said firefang, pointing to a large domed building. "That's the palace, where the preistess resides."

"Firefang... I really don't know you that well. Tell me, how do you control you're blood lust?" Said Abraham as he got pushed by Firefang. "We all must have a blood lust of some sort. A need to kill."

"Easy. It's not too difficult to find a human child out there. When they are sleeping in their supposed safe homes. I feed on their parents, killing them is purely for recreational purposes." Firefang laughed  a little. "To watch the blood splatter on the walls and stain my fur. It's the perfect way to contain blood lust."

"So all wolves have blood lust. It's not just me?" Asked Abraham as he reached a small set of stairs.

"Yeah. It's just that some of us are better at containing it than others."

"Ha! Who would want to contain the blood lust. To feel the victim's flesh and blood soak my body. To see them die, the sensation is amazing!" Abraham smiled as he remembered his first kill. He loved to kill people as his wolf.
