«Warn me about what?» Kai asked him but the wolf just stared at the young human behind him. «John, go take a walk» Kai told him, his eyes still stuck on the second uninvited guest of the week.
«Again? It's cold outside you know.» John complained. Kai's head snapped to the side and he looked at him with a threatening stare. John gulped and grabbed his coat, an awkward smile on his face as he walked towards the door. «I am going to get some coffee. I'll be back later» he told them and rushed outside the shop.
Mika seemed to relax a bit the moment John was gone. His figure was still visible for a few seconds through the glass door but soon it disappeared in between the tall buildings. The man sat on the couch and looked at Kai. He was standing there, right in front of him, his hands lazily in his pockets.
«You haven't changed at all.» Mika commented.
«I am a vampire. You haven't changed either. A bit taller though if I'm not mistaken. And the piercings. Tattoos too»
«Yeah times change.» he told him coldly
«You're not here to talk about that though are you?» Kai asked him knowing already his answer. These two were never supposed to meet. Not again after everything that happened and him being here was another brutal reminder of the past. He hated it, he hated looking into his eyes and remembering the pain but even worse the happiness.
«I know it might sound crazy to you but I really did come to warn you. About my pack. Moonshine. It's off the track and they are going after all the vampires in the area. I saw you, with your friend. I remembered you and I came to warn you. You should leave. The sooner the better. They are planning something.»
«You don't know what it is they are planning?» Kai asked. He knew that Mika was close to the Alpha. So it was natural for him to wonder how come he wasn't aware of what was happening inside his own pack. Mika smiled, his expression bitter and his eyes sad. For a second he seemed to be hesitant, as if he didn't want to answer.
«I know what you're thinking. How come one of the three Wolf Warriors doesn't know what is happening in his own pack? Well, the alpha has changed and since there are only two of us left we have been demoted in a way. Forgotten» Mika explained. The wolf warriors. In very big packs sometimes existed troupes. Especially during the old time when danger was constant. Moonshine was one of the biggest packs out there and had three warrior leaders. They were different from the Alpha and its Beta, they were war experts, something like elite generals. «We won't be two for long though» he told him and Kai's eyes widened.
«What does that mean?» the vampire asked. This was the question he needed to know the most, the third person, the one who was going to become a new general worrior. Who was it going to be? Mika noticed his curiosity, the anticipation in his eyes and a grin appeared on his face.
«I won't tell you. You don't deserve to know» he told him and stood up. «I did all I had to do. Now I'm off. If you get caught don't expect me to help you» he said and walked towards the door. The sun was bright outside and he could hear the honking of the cars that were trapped in rush hour. He grabbed the cold doorknob ready to leave but Kai's voice stopped him.
«Why did you come here to warn me?»
The red haired wolf turned around. Their eyes met for a second and Kai felt like he was asking a very stupid question. The silence between them, his judgemental look and his words. He did not deserve to know. He wanted to though, he wished to know who was going to take his place. He wanted to know why Mika was here after two hundred years with a warning that could save his life. He had said it, he didn't deserve it. After everything he had done it was obvious, so why? Why was he here probably putting himself in danger for someone like him?
«Sometimes you're really stupid, aren't you little prince?» Mika teased him and a scoff escaped his lips. «I'm here to warn you because he loved you. He loved you with all his being and I am trying to preserve the little humanity he has in him» Mika revealed. Kai gasped realizing the meaning of his words
«You mean that…he is back?»
«What does it matter to you? You were the one that killed him.» the wolf said. Kai wanted to ask him more, he needed to know and he almost grabbed him, wanting to keep him here but Mika was fast. He opened the door and rushed outside. That was the most he would get out of him.
From the moment he had seen him Kai knew he wouldn't be happy after he left. He never expected this though. Was he really telling the truth? Had he really returned or maybe this was a sick game so he could torture him? Make him pay for his crimes. What did he mean when he said that he was trying to preserve his humanity?
Kai had sworn he would leave his world behind, disappear into the chaos of humanity but why, why was it that somehow he felt like now he was back. Back where he started, lost. He had to find out, he had to know. About the third wolf warrior.
