Heading down to the interrogation room in the basement of the house I'm greeted my Certus. "I believe I have someone you'd be very interested in meeting sir" 

 I see the blood splatters on his shirt and the gleam in his eye I know he's talking about Callixos. "Son of a bitch won't talk!" He spits. "But I'll be more than happy to continue with my interrogation."

"Let me talk to him." I reply turning to enter the room. The room had been built of stainless steel infused with pure silver as were the table and chairs. There were various interrogation rooms down here, each with its own unique properties based on the abilities of the supernatural being interrogated. Entering the room I see Callixos in werewolf form bound to one of the chairs with silver chains. The chains have singed his fur and burned deep marks into his skin. With his head hanging foI watch the blood drip slowly from his mouth to the polished steel table.

"Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in." I say smiling slowly as a low growl comes from Callixos. Walking around the table I leaned down near his ear. "I'm sure you are aware of recent events against members of the council which is not something that we take lightly. So why don't you be a good little wolf and tell me who's behind the attacks? You help me get to the leader and I will speak with the council members about reducing your sentence. That is if you choose to assist us. Of course if you choose not to the punishment is death." I whisper scratching him between the ears. "

"I don't give a shit about you or your pathetic council members. For centuries we have abided by the treaty creeping in and out of the shadows of humans. We as the superior beings will no longer cower in the shadows! It is they who should cower." He snarls

"I see." I respond calmly as my fingernails grow into dangerously sharp claws. I walk over to a table on the far wall that contained a bowl of liquid silver. Reciting an ancient spell of protection I sigh in satisfaction as the magic settles onto my hands and arms before plunging my hands into the bowl.

"Let's try this again." I tell him. "Who is behind the Ultonis?" I question walking to the stand in front of him on the opposite side of the table.

 "Your God damn momma!" He sneers.

I gave a low chuckle. "My momma?" Vanishing and appearing behind him I plunge my claws into his back listening to the sound of burning fur and flesh wherever the silver made contact as Callixos howls in pain. "Didn't anyone teach you not to talk about someone's mother? It's not very nice." I reply clicking my tongue while dipping my hands back in the bowl. The silver wouldn't kill him unless it was injected directly into the heart but this method would cause him an excruciating amount of pain. "Disrespect is not something I tolerate well so it would be in your best interest to show some respect werewolf." I snarl dragging my claws down the table as I watch him cringe at the sound.

"Kill me! I don't give a damn but you will not stop the Ultonis! A new leader has risen, one who is not afraid to bring back the ways of old! They are not weak like the members of the council."

I was beside him before he could utter his next sentence dragging my silver covered claws across his face as he again howled in agony. "For such a young one, how in the hell do you know so much about the ways of old?" I ask calmly as I note his breaths have become ragged and blood runs from his wounds. "I am aware that your leader happens to be one of our younger council members but I do not believe it to be the person you were texting the night of the murder of the werewolf family down in the bayou."

He laughs slowly though I could see the surprise flash across his face. "At least one of you is not entirely stupid". Grabbing his chair and pulling him back from the table I plunged the other silver covered hand into his stomach as he throws is head back in pain before letting it fall forward again.

"Do you want me to kill him?" Certus asks as the door opened behind me.

"No." I spit grabbing Callixos by the neck watching the remaining silver on my hand burn him before looking him in the eye. "No, I will break him and then I will kill him. Make sure to feed him. I want him alive for our next little chat."
