Luke sighed and looked at Gina who frowned. "More as been going on than we realized", He thought and he could see the frustration on his sister's face, the anger of being left out. Even as paranoid as he was, he couldn't guess whether their father would do this or not, but he believed that his father hated the werewolves and for him to be on their side now meant something was up, anyways it was the unlikely odd.
'I hate the fact that we have to come together with you! Gina shouted clearly mad at Thawn and partially at their father but she just couldn't believe it despite all he'd instilled in them.
'Calm down',Luke said softly. And he patted his sister then he noticed a scar on her neck.
'Are you okay? He asked trying to touch the scar but Gina grabbed his hand giving him a glare.
'Am fine! And she boomed away.
'I told Grey I will protect you with everything have got', Thawn said despite groans.
'And am sure he told you to fuck off', Luke said while Grey managed to grin, he expected that at least. He believed they needed no protection from someone like Thawn.
'Sure he did. But am not backing out on my word,' Thawn said convincingly.
'Ok, Luke said and went away.
'They are not still happy with me', Thawn thought and his face was sour.
'I know...but am here to right my wrongs. I won't let something like that happen again.
Back in Her room, Gina looked at the scar. How did it get there? Would something have bitten her and she not remember anything about it?. When looked closely one can see the scar to be like a snake had bitten her on the neck. She was thinking about the possibilities when Luke came in.
'Are you sure you are okay,sis?", He asked still hanging around by the door.
'Am fine,' she muttered closing the scar with cloth.
'We should get ready for school', Luke said and observed his sister for a while before leaving. Gina sighed and stood in front of her mirror.

'Yeah so what? Max said glad that things were close to normal, at least for now.
'We shouldn't be too relaxed', said Sam.
'Wade is fine and Dad's workshop is going well. Why should I worry? Max asked
'You never know. Something maybe going on and we just don't know yet', Sam said then Daryl and Gina came over.
'Meet my friends', Daryl said smiling.
'I know them,' she said rolling her eyes.
'Sure you do', Sam whispered. 'Its nice to meet you finally', he said smiling while Max sighed. Then not far from a corner a guy took a picture of them together and called a number. Sam phone rang and he moved away a little after a while he came back.
'Sorry guys,I have to go. Mum needs me', Sam stated rather hurriedly than usual.
'Sure. No problem',Daryl replied as Max looked on.
**********
Hardy was restless he took every picture and pinned it on the wall.' how come we don't have any lead on this yet' he pondered and then his phone rang he picked,after a while he dropped the phone and slumped into his chair. Then Sam came in
'Hi dad', Sam grinned.
'Hey boy. What are you doing here?', Hardy questioned his 'stepson' who he knew to be wayward a little for his age.
'Mum sent me to deliver this', he replied dropping the parcel.
'How nice', Hardy said smiling then cowered back.
'Are you okay? Sam asked concerned.
'Am worried about what's happening lately. It's not really your concern though. It's for us to worry about.
'And what's that? why must it be only you to worry about it?', Sam asked rather unduly
Hardy scoffed.' You seem curious, well, lemme tell you. There have been some report on some people been bitten by a wolfdog or something. It's very weird for a fox or dog to bite the victims in a certain pattern and we could observe claws', he sighed seeing no harm in telling the boy what is happening not that he expected anything for him to do but at least he thought he would make his curiosity die down.
'Thats bad.' Sam said and secretly took a report. 'I hope you find the solution sir', He added with a smile.
'Thanks. I will', Hardy replied and Sam went out.
*****
"Kado!",Thawn called out. He wondered where he would have went without telling him and he didn't even call him. After frantically searching all where he thought he could be, he came home and slumped into the bed and prepared to have a nice sound sleep. He will be home soon, he thought. He's strong.
*******
School was closed already and Max was getting ready to go then Daryl caught up with him.
'Hey, where's your Sammy?', Daryl asked
'He hasn't been back since he went that time' Max said and then Sam just arrived.
'Guys! He exclaimed and went up to them.
'Whats wrong? Both asked bemused at how strangely he acted.
'I think we have a huge problem', Sam stated with a sour expression on his face.
'Problem? As in?, Max asked still not getting why his friend is acting this way.
'Werewolf gone rogue' Sam said. And all stared at themselves. They went to a corner and Sam explained what Mr Hardy told him and gave them the report he stole.
'We have to do something', Sam said looking at them both.
'Am not so sure, Max murmured.
'What can we do, Sam? Daryl asked particularly interested in what he has to say, not that he has a problem with helping but he's just fond of him now somehow even though they've just known each other, and he tend to be the brainy type.
'I think we should let your buddy know, Max. Maybe he can help us out', Sam said looking at Max.
'This is not our responsibility, you know. We shouldn't get deeply involved in these types of things', Max said worry in his voice.
'It will be a never ending journey,' Daryl said.
'I told you Max. Your life changed when you got BITTEN. You can't escape from the supernaturals again. It has affected mine too. We have to deal with these! How many more people will die from wolf bite!?',Sam said convincingly
Max sighed and looked down. 'It won't be bad doing this, maybe I was BITTEN for a purpose', he thought.
'Lets go see a friend', he smiled
'Friend? Daryl asked.
'Dont worry. He's a nice guy and very strong too', Max assured them.
'Lets head out then', Daryl said looking over to the woods. Then he grabbed Sam and whooshed as Max began running too slightly in extraordinary speed. As they took off, a guy who was from a distance took his phone and called a number.
'Seems they are heading somewhere', he reported over the phone.
*******
They entered and found the scene in front of them shocking to say the least, for a person Max claimed was so strong, Thawn on bed, half healing with apparent wounds on his body.
'So gross! Sam nearly puked.
'What happened Thawn!? Max asked. And Daryl held his forehead.
'Are you okay?,Sam asked.
Thawn groaned and looked up. 'Who is he? He growled.
'Hes a friend' Max said but he was struck by Thawn and he hit the wall and landed on the ground with a loud thud. Thawn tried to grab Sam but Daryl held his hand and threw him but Thawn landed on his feet. Sam scurried to a corner and his heart beating fast with him huffing
'Whats wrong with you!? Why'd you bring a vampire here! Thawn growled. Thawn flew and rushed attacks at Daryl who dodged and grabbed his neck.
'How dare you wolf attack me!?', Daryl gritted his canines and his eyes became yellowish as he snarled.
'Your hyps won't work on me! Thawn growled as his eyes glowed red. Max roared and the whole place shook violently.' STOP!!! And his eyes became bluish radiating a strong aura. Both left each other and looked at the awe in front of them. Sam couldn't believe it too. He was forced to stop being scared. Thawn couldn't believe it either a BITTEN just commanded him and Daryl found it unbelievable for a werewolf to be able to emit that kind of aura and he couldn't help but think. "He's not as strong as the Family leaders, is he?".
'We need your help, Thawn' Max said as the tension was eased between the parties.
'Yes', Sam said and explained everything to Thawn too. He mustered every courage to do so,afraid Thawn would snap at him just like he did to Daryl but seeing Max act this way boosted his confidence in some way
'I think it's not just a wolf bite.' Thawn said having calmed down a little but still can't stop giving Daryl hard glares which didn't go unnoticed by Daryl too but he choosed not to act out
'What do you think?, Max asked ignoring the tension between both.
'I think a werewolf is out there trying to create another wolf by Biting resulting in their deaths.' Thawn revealed
'Thats bad! Max said clearly shaken by the revelation
'I knew it. Someone must have gotten a whimp about you',Thawn said.
'We need a plan how to stop this, else people keep dying', Daryl said without much emotion
' You are not worried for them. You are just worried for your blood bag! Thawn shot at him.
'I refuse to believe that, Daryl is a special vampire. He doesn't need much blood besides he takes animal blood.' Max said facing Daryl to make sure he see how he reacts to this. "Right?", he added and Daryl nodded with a faint smile.
'Bullshit! He's lying! Thawn growled.
'What do we do? Sam asked terrified.
'I need to find my brother, am worried something may have happened to him', Thawn said.
'Take care of your poisoned blood first,' Daryl said with a disgusted expression. 'Its ruining the air', he added with a mean look.
*******
'I thought you said he was BITTEN!', Fauge growled as he slashed Kado who spat blood.
' I ....I ...don't know.....he was...bitten..that's all I .. know', Kado winced in pain
'Maybe it's time I pay him a visit myself! Fauge said. 'Have you found who is helping him?
'No. But I believe he must be a creature very strong', Savvy said. 'But I doubt he's a werewolf', he added.
'No problem. One way to find out', he smirked showing off his elongated fangs.
