Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Great Escape

Waking up determined, I look over and see that Nile is still sleeping. I walk over to him and shake him gently to wake him up. "Nile. Nile it's time to get up. The guards will be here in a few minutes. We need to get ready for release."

Nile's ears perk up and he wakes up immediately. "You have another plan!" He looked at me happy. I smiled. "Yes but, I need to speak with Nole." He looks at me confused. "My wolf? You need to speak to it?" I nodded. "Alright then." Nile closed his eyes then reopened them. They went from the gray I know, to the yellow of his wolf. "Yes?" He tilted his head and smiled. "Let Nile use you." I said seriously.

His smile fell. "No." He said simply. I growled at him. Oh no not now Herin. Herin pushed me aside and took control. "Alright pup. Let your human die. Don't help because we won't need it. But once I and everyone else leaves they will kill you. They WILL kill Nile. Remember that." She growled out viciously.

Nole lowers his head in submission and whines. "I'm sorry Alpha Herin. I'll follow your every order." Herin smirks. "Good." I retake control. "So are you in?" I say least impressed with his actions. "Y-Yes Alpha." I smile. "Good now. The guards should be here any moment now." *crash* "Alright freaks. It's time for your daily get out." We hear a guard say. I look to Nole who has now given Nile control. He smirks at me. "As soon as we get out, tell the others got it? Tell them alpha chee says use their animal to escape." He nods and we are let out of our cell.

"Alright ya freaks it's time for your daily exercise." A guard yelled as we all go outside into the caged outdoors. "Shift! All of you!" The guard yelled. We did as told and shifted. You could see many types of animals. Panthers, wolves, even elephants. There are many of us and many different species.

"Today's the day." I said more to myself than to anyone. I look to Nile and nod. He smiles and howls. Next thing you know all shifters personalities change and our animal takes over. They speak to each other in their common tongue.

"We as animals to our human must help! Follow me and we will escape and become free!" Herin said. "We Are Loyal!" Nole barked. With that being said all shifters begin attacking the guards and begin to escape. Guard after guard were killed. This was only the beginning.

"Make them submit! I don't want to see a single person or animal escape!"

—Anne POV—

We have taken out almost all of the guards. Herin has been commanding the animal fleet. "We are almost out everyone keep pushing!" I yelled as everyone howled their cry of victory. "Do you think you damn freaks will escape?! Don't be fooled. You can't leave that easily!" Everyone stopped and looked to the voice. "Kilolis... Why do you want us. You have killed so many of us and tortured every single one of us! Enough is ENOUGH!" I rawred out. Everyone did the same as they take a defensive stance around me. Nile right besides me. "Do you think I'll let such great specimens like you leave? Hah! You must be joking!" Kilolis stated with a chilling smile. Next thing we hear many footsteps head our way. And Kilolis comes down from his podium. "Let the battle carry on! Fight your hardest, for you will be rewarded once we are finished my brethren!" Herin cried out authoritatively. "We heard many cries of battle in this fight and lost many. Kill them all!" Kilolis said as he pointed his gun to me.

Many people were dying. And I was nearly shot in the chest. But we kept fighting! By sunrise we have won. We looked at each other and howled in victory. We left one survivor. "Kilolis... we hold him captive and are torturing him now." Nile said to me as we walk. I smile. "That's great. I would have thought you would have killed him by now." I laugh out a little. He nods. "I came close to it. Really close. But I remembered he did so much more shit to you than me. So I let him live." I smile lightly. "Thank you Nile. Now that they are killed and captured what do you say we all get some rest? We all need it especially our animal." He nods yeah let's sleep then tomorrow, Come day break we will head out into the wild and make our own pack!" I smile and we make our way into a spare room and drift to sleep.
