Hell's Child

5

*After Athena Left the Room*

Tiger was still purring in my head, the sound vibrated in my heart as well. But I knew that it wouldn't last long. I needed to get away from here. I'm not fit to be a Queen. And I do not want to be by the side of a blood thirsty killer. I needed to get my mind off of him. His scent, his touch, and his face was still fresh in my mind. I went out to look for Mathew. He could make me forget about the world. 

I could smell his scent far in the woods. Along with blood. Tiger completely forgot about our hot mate. She was ready to kill. Before I could run out there a child ran out of the woods. His face was streaked with tears. I bent down and looked at him. He had Mathews scent on him. 

"Kid. What's wrong" I asked. I was careful not to growl.

"We need to get Alpha! My Friends were taken! Please, Miss help them!" He cried. He tugged at my shirt. I could see how scared he was. I didn't care about the other pups but but Mathew was with them. I nodded and quickly shifted. 

I ran towards the scent of blood at fast as I could. Tiger grew more anxious with each step we took. I wondered what was making Tiger scared. When I found my way there, my blood ran cold. 

Four pups were surrounded by six wolves. All of them were shifted and in battle stances. The kids fur was covered in there own blood. Behind the four pups was one who was barely alive. Mathew. His black fur was mangy and his chest was moving slowly. I growled out loud and charged at the first wolf I saw.  

I ripped his throat out with no hesitation at all. More wolves came at me. One latched on to my leg and dug its teeth into me. I shook it off and flung it at one who was running up to me. Admist the confusion they started to fight each other. But I killed them all in no time. When I was done my eyes were on the Black Wolf whose breath became shallower by the minute. 

The other pups backed away as I approached Mathew. I laid down next to him and whimpered. My baby, my brother, my life, was hurt. I will find you did this. If its the last thing i do. I barked at the pups and pointed my snout at Mathew. They got the idea and shifted back. They all picked him up and carried him to the pack's front yard. I escorted them along the way. When we got there, everybody was looking. One of them rushed over to get Mathew. I growled and snapped at them.

It was a woman. She was probably my age. Her brown hair was tied into a neat bun and she wore a white shirt with light blue pants. I could smell many different medical herbs on her. She most be a Doctor. She stepped away from me. She was Frightened. I lay down and put my ears down as well, to show her that she could take Mathew. She nodded and motion for more people to help take care of the children. I lay still and waited for them to be gone. 

Cold air drifted across my fur and sent chills down my spine. I looked around for the source of my fear but I couldn't find it. I fact I wasn't even in the packs front yard anymore. I was in the middle of a large clearing. The grass under me paws was burnt. But the ground around my was green. I took a forward and the grass turned black under me. I was confused and scared. 

"Athena." A deep, scratchy voice called out to me. Though I did not know who I was coming from. I was alone in the plains. 

Tiger, I don't feel good about this. I told my Wolf. 

Neither do I. We are not at the pack house anymore but it smells like we are. She responded, concern was evident in her tone. 

I walked around trying to get my baring's. Burnt grass followed me like a path. There was nothing as far as I could see. No where for someone to hide either. I stopped walking and sniffed the air. I could smell blood, and the Doctor from the pack. But she was nowhere to be seen. Where am I?

"Athena, my lovely. You should have let that pest of a Brother die. He will only get in the way." The voice said. I growled and whipped my head around trying to find the source of the voice.  "Give your body to me and we will rule the supernatural world. Not only that, but we can rule over the Humans as well." He chided. Just then a figure started to materialize a couple of yards from me. 

He was the man I saw in my nightmares. His dark cold eyes pierced my body. He had sharp features and unnaturally black hair. It was combed through. None the less I didn't like him. His Aura was the one of a monster. I felt like a was going to be crushed by it. 

"Why wouldn't you let me finish off that brat." He smiled wickedly. His smile was mesmerizing but daunting. I crouched low and got into battle position. I was not going to let him lay one evil finger on my brother. 

Before he could speak again I sprung into action. I headed straight for his neck. He dodged it with ease but i did not give up. He danced around my attacks effortlessly. I backed up and studied him. He shot past me and held his sharp nails in front of my neck. 

"Now, now" He tisked. "I don't want to kill you. I just want to kill everyone close to you."

I slipped out of his grip and bit his ankle. He chuckled and kicked me aside. I got up. My rage was reaching new heights. A red substance dripped down me. It died my fur as it descended. My vision became burry and my head felt light. My senses dimmed and I passed out.
