Mud River:The entrance to Mud River pack was nothing likeBlack Mountain The tall wooden gates seemed weak in comparison to Black Mountain iron ones. Garold drummed his fingers on the steering wheel as he wait for some response from the guard at the gate. He watched the guard look at him and try to figure out if they were expecting visitors. He could see the guard’s eyes widen as more cars pulled up behind Arkyn’s. “Well if we were staging an attack and we were the decoy this would be easy. The guards are confused about visitors and never mind a surprised attack.” Garold chuckled.“Are we attacking?” Alice asked curiously. She glanced behind them not seeing all the vehicles they had left with. “Maybe.” Garold said with hope in his voice.Alice commented about how to wish war was not a good thing but was taken back as a loud smack rang out in the vehicle. It happened so fast it didn't even register what had happened until Njar yelled.“You bloody bastard!” Nkar yelled, rubbing the si

Explain:“Arkyn…I can explain.” The words flew out of Tim’s mouth as he quickly tried to regain his composure.“Explain.” Arkyn chuckled, the chuckle was deadly, it was cold and it said that he didn't care one way or another if there was a reason behind his choices. “I..I can be useful.We will have intel on James, his moves, his whereabouts, and his plannings.” Tim stuttered out, trying to change his angle seeing how explaining wasn't impressing Arkyn.“We need leverage and we need it now. If you want to live, get whoever is in that car. We are all dead otherwise.” Tim sent out in a mind link to the soldiers in his pack, praying one of them were brave enough to act. "Ahhhhh-haaaaaa” Garold yawned loudly being very dramatic with it as he put his hand over his mouth, letting Tim know that he was bored.“Be useful.” Arkyn countered, his head nodding slightly as he spoke as if he didnt believe that Tim could actually be useful.“I..I..aaa. Dark Moon.” Tim announced as if he had struck

Ghost: The tires grinding into the ground filled the car. The ride home was painfully silent. Arkyn had attempted to reach out and touch her during the car ride but she pressed herself into the door. He frowned deeply but then realized quickly he was still covered in Tim’s blood. He allowed her space due to that simple fact alone. Conan was whimpering inside of him upset that she was angry with them. Arkyn kept noticing Garold’s eyes in the rearview Garold kept looking back at Alice guilt flooding his face. She pretended that they both didn't exist. Alice’s eyes planted firmly out the window. He wanted to know what she was thinking. He studied her but there was nothing. No sign, no indications of what was going on in her head. He couldn't feel anything ethier. It was a lie she had found a way to completely block everything out. She was not giving anything away, locking up everything inside of her. Another flicker of guilt looks from the rearview mirror. Arkyn growled quietly and fou

Change of Plans:James crunched the piece of note paper in his hand. His body shaking as anger coursed through him. The note paper burning a hole in his hand. He clenched his jaw trying to control himself. He squeezed his fist tighter and tighter. His first instinct was to rip the paper in shreds. He needed the paper though. His next was to put his fist through the wall. The urge won. James fist went slamming into his bedroom wall. He didn't even feel the drywall as it buckled and broke. His hand crashed through it effortlessly. He felt his knuckles crunch as it hit something past the drywall. The wood splints from the support beam scraping against his skin. His knuckles split and bleeding. He didn't feel any of it, his adrenaline so high that not one ounce of pain came through. All he felt was rage. Pulling his fist out of the wall he looked at the paper. Stonewall had been leading him on. They were not backing him. Coward bastards. It infuriated him that so many were so afraid of

Dress:They laid there in the silence of the world. Arkyn had pulled her close as she laid there looking at the stars. She curled into him the warmth from his body making her feel better. Arkyn held her hand tightly never letting go in fear she would feel the slightest amount of pain. He looked over to her, her eyes studying the stars. He watched the goosebumps speckle up her arm. He frowned slightly seeing it. He glanced over to her arm and saw that Bo had bandaged it. Bo and Njar had left shortly after leaving them alone in the courtyard. Bo had used a blue bandage as if he knew that was Alice’s favorite color. “We should get you inside.” Arkyn said quietly to her, watching her arm carefully.“We can't stay for two more minutes.” Alice smirked, resting her head onto his chest. “No you're not hurting because of me and you're getting cold.” Arkyn grumbled softly.“You know, you're really no fun.” Alice smirked at him , teasing him as he heard him scoff."No fun?” He asked, raising
