Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

Kristie P.O.V.

"It's gonna be alright, I promise."

What is happening to him? This has been the third time this week. If only I knew what was happening to him but... he wouldn't tell me. He just says he forgot but... I've known him for years; no lie of his would slip past me.

I would ask Angela but... I couldn't find her anywhere. There were times I waited outside the storehouse all day, sometimes staying there overnight but she wouldn't come out.

If only I knew a way to stop his nightmares.

I would do whatever it takes.

(got the idea from kingdom hearts haha but ill add more things.)

"Why... does the sun set red?" he whispers with a hoarse voice

"?... "

"I hate it. It dyes the sky in blood"

"well, that isnt the only thing it represents

red is the color that reaches the farthest."

"...What?"

"*sigh* well... when the sun gives of light, they say a million colors are spread but only the red, orange, and yellow colors reach us, but the one that lasts the longest is red. It's the warmest color of all, it speaks of love, life, summer autumn, sometimes is speaks of hatred, and war. It may act as a trigger for beginnings and endings, it may even make memories last longer. To me it's simply the color of day, is that alright?"

*Devon nods his head*

"Yeah... thanks Kristie."

"No problem. Is there anything you want?"

"ummm... im kinda hungry..."

"Alright then you want something cold? Hot? Light? Heavy?"

"Um... hot and light?"

"Okay is mushroom crème soup alright?"

"Yeah."

He gave a small smirk as I let go of him... his eyes look tired but he now looks better than earlier.

I'm glad. He finally opened up to me. Maybe there is a chance I could bring him back. To... Himself.

I headed to the kitchen and was about to enter when I smelled a different scent coming from inside. It was the same as the trainers sent to our pack. But what were they doing in the kitchen?

I was about to enter when something said by who I believe was Mason, one of the trainers who had tanned skin, black hair and black eyes with a tint of gold in them like it was spreading out from behind his pupil.

"-to destroy this pack first and take the alpha as prisoner."

Then a feminine aged voice spoke

"How will we bring her back with us?" wait... it sounds like Ms. Hana? No wait... that cant be!

Another voice spoke. This time it sounded like the other trainer, Jack, he has bleach white hair and orange amber like eyes.

"We'll just have to make her sleep. The potion Angela promised will be ready by sunrise on Friday."

"Wait?! That only gives me three days!!!"

"Are you defying the orders of the sun council?"

"*tch* fine."

Wait sun council?! The day faction? No this is not good. I have to report it to the elders!!!

I stepped back accidentally hitting a table holding a vase making it fall over and shatter on the floor.

"WHO'ES THERE?!!!"

I ran but as quietly as I could manage. Sh*t! they must have still smelled me?! I ran to the council room and barged in not bothering to knock. There I was faced with three of the elders.

"WE HAVE SPIES, INTRUDERS!!! THE PACK TRAINERS ARE FROM THE DAY FACTION!!!"

"WHAT?! GATHER ALL OUR MEN AND TAKE THEM OUT!!!"

The head elder commanded as the other two nodded their heads and split apart. It hadn't even been a minute when everyone had already gathered facing off with the two trainers and Hana in front of the pack house.

They were surrounded. All our warriors had shifted and attacked the traitors. Not before long, it had turned into a bloody mess.

A white blond wolf with brown socks and a brown streak that ran down from his head to lower back who I believed was Jack suddenly launched at me. Taken by surprise I had no time to attack.

I shut my eyes and waited for the bite but there was none. I opened my eyes to see Devon protecting me. Jack had clawed on his arm so it now had three long deep gashes about 6 inches.

Connor in wolf form leaped for Jack and bit his neck making a crack sound before his body went limp.

"DEVON?!!! YOUR ARM!"

"It's alright. It's just a slight wound."

"A slight wound?!!! You could die of blood loss?!" I grabbed his arm with my left hand and took out the bandages from my pocket with my right.

The wound I had expected had shrunken in size and in in the process of closing completely.

"H-how did t-that?!"

He immediately covered the wound with his left arm, his eyes widening.

"I-its nothing. Go get Alfred to heal the wounded. Tell the others to dispose of their bodies in the forest."

I nodded my head and did what he told me to do... but... Hana was a spy?... also how did his wound close so fast?... he's hiding something. But what?
