The warriors have never seen anything like this before.
"Luna, how is this possible? What are you? You have no wolf?" A warrior says.
I approach him with a smile.
"Did Damon, my mate, forget to tell you all that your Luna and Queen is a primal sprite?" I smile.
They all look at each other in shock?
"Sprites are just a fairy tale, Luna, just like witches, orcs," and vampires," he says.
Oh, this is going to be fun.
I run forward towards the pack warriors. They begin to part aside as I run past them. I stop, close my eyes, and focus.
The weather is hot, and it's very dry out here. So I decide to make it rain. I smirk to myself and open my eyes. A massive sphere of water is high up in the sky above us.
Everyone is mesmerised, I clap my hands together once, and it bursts into a myriad of raindrops that fall upon us. I twirl in a circle and embrace every raindrop that lands on me. Just as I did the day, I first learnt how to do this. The warriors all cheer and chuckle at what they are witnessing. Troy approaches with a smile.
"I see you are feeling better?" He says.
I nod and look back to the warriors basking in the rain.
"Luna, I'm going to mind link Alpha. I thought you might want to be here so I can pass any messages onto him for you?" He offers.
"I would like that, Troy." I say, beaming.
Alpha King Damon
We pass through Wellmore and can see the army up ahead. King Fenris and his army set up camp outside the forest.
"King Fenris looks angry about something," Hugo says.
"I wonder what has happened? It won't be long until nightfall, we can watch them from here, and as soon as it's dark enough, we can move closer and find Maia," I say.
Hugo nods.
"I will go into the camp first. Hopefully, they haven't noticed that I haven't been around," Hugo says.
We sit and wait until nightfall.
"Alright, Alpha, I'm going in. If you don't see my signal within the hour, then you can suspect something is wrong. Otherwise, if you get my signal, you know it's clear to sneak in,"
"Hugo,"
"Yes, alpha?"
"Thank you for helping me save Maia,"
Hugo smiles,
"Whatever you say, Alpha,"
Hugo walks towards the camp.
It has almost been an hour since I saw Hugo.
"I'm sorry, Alpha, it wasn't me that gave the signal. The soldiers beat me, Alpha. They even cut my finger off my left hand. I refused to speak. I was hoping to get through the hour of torture so you would know something was wrong, but then they held my arm down, and they were about to cut it off. I caved. I had no choice but to tell them that you were waiting for my signal. They were already onto me when some of the soldiers saw that I had stayed behind at Garnet falls. They claim Maia also escaped earlier today, and King Fenris has a banged-up nose. I'd say kitten put up another good fight," He chuckles.
"It's okay, Hugo. You did well, considering the circumstances,"
"Alpha?"
"Yes, Hugo?" I sigh.
"At least we don't have to save the princess anymore," he says.
We both burst into laughter at the irony of us now being the ones who need to be saved.
"Do you think she will save us, Alpha? or do you think this is our end?" He asks.
"After everything she has been through, I don't think she will give up on us without a fight," I say.
Alpha! It's me, Troy.
I flinch. The mind-link catches me off-guard.
"Alpha?" Hugo asks.
"My Beta, Troy is mind-linking me,"
Hugo nods.
Troy, Maia escaped from King Fenris today. I need you to find her. I mind-link.
