“Now is the time, Revenge!“ The deep voice said again.
“What?“ He intoned out loud.
“You dare question me?“
“Now quiet kid as much as seeing your body headless is enjoyable to watch right now, don't make me do that!“
“We don't take instruction from anybody, instead we do that, right?“ The voice said again, a voice he had no idea was his wolf voice.
He curled his fist as he tried to steady his breathing and harken to the voice in his head.

“Aiden!“ His mother called out to him, and at that moment the voice in his head was silenced.
“Ma?
“Are you okay?“
“I'm sorry, he is just a child.“ His mother apologized on his behalf.
“Better have him in check so for his death day be fastwarded” the kalibre warned before walking away.
“Are you sure you are okay?“ The mother asked him even though it was windy and the weather is chilly but he was sweating.

He nodded and took his gaze away from his mother, “What was that?“ He thought
The father nodded at his son of assurance that everything will be fine.
The father and Mother shared a stare, “It's coming, what should we do?“ The mother asked the father wearily whispering.
“shh!“ The father shush placing a finger on his lips signifying silent
“He might hear you!“ He whispered muttering under his breath loud enough for his wife to hear.
“Yeah, right? Werewolves do have fast hearing or are they are good at hearing? One of their special Ability” she muttered in her mind and sit up while nodding her head. A glance at his son but it seems he has wandered off into his mind in the land of the unknown.

“What was what?“ The voice said back.
“Why the heck are you in my mind, why are you controlling me?“ He questioned in his mind.
“Woah woah! Calm down. You are learning pretty fast, well, that is a good thing.“
“I'm learning what?“
“Communication skills. See, minutes ago, when you wanted to speak to me you say it out loud for the world to hear, but now, the reverse is the case. You are a fast learner I bet you are a scholar in your academics.“
“Stop diverting my question! who are you? And what the heck are you doing in my head!? Perhaps it all an illusion?“ He looks down at his abdomen and stared at the area that was but by the bullet.
“Maybe I'm dead after all…”
“Dude, Wait Wait wait… what the heck are you thinking?“
“Snap out of it!“
“You are not dead!“
“Just shut up! I was shut twice, there is no how I'm not dead.
And you must be the angel that is supposed to take me to the afterlife, or the judgement throne! Why the heck are you playing tricks with me?“
“Seriously, is that all you can come up with? I thought you are smart! You, humans, will never cease to amaze me.“ His wolf voice said in a face-palming tone.

He watched as the young girl walked away from him angrily with a determined expression and smiled. She reminded him of his sister. No, they look nothing alike, but the personality she just displays is that of his sister. Always wanting to do things by themselves not caring about the consequences.
He started at her back as she stomped her feet to the building, she walked in not acknowledging the keepers at the doorpost, they all shared a glance and followed her in.
“Oh no, this is bad.“ He thought as he walked away, but something made him stop.
What if something bad happened to her? He needs to do something, but he knew he is no match with all the keepers, and without thinking twice he marched to the building.

Carol dozes off with her head resting on her palm and her elbow on the desk as she dozes off slowly almost hitting her head on the desk.
“You should go home!“
“Home?“
“Yes, thought you never wanted to be on this case?“
“Yes, and I'm still not interested in the case, but…”
“But what?“
“I can't leave you here all alone solving the case.“ She lied.
“Pfft. You are not helping either.“
“And that's because you don't want me to help.“ She said back.
They are back at the station after they've reported what they saw and all the bodies garnered from the cities had been taken to the hospital in the mortuary they are at the office that has two chairs and tables with a whiteboard.
Felix is buying accounting what he. found on the whiteboard and as for carol?
“Go home and take a good rest, we have a long day tomorrow. You need it.“
“What are you doing?“
“as you can see, I'm doing my job detective. Untying the loose ends.“
“So what are the first loose ends we have to untie first?“ She asked walking up to the drawing board.
“Find the survivor?“ She read out loud
“Yes!“ He said walking away from the room. “Hmm” she hummed tilting her head as she keep reading what was written on the board.
After a while, she yawned “I need this sleep”. She said as she stretches her arm and went back to sit on the chair before resting her head on the table, and there, she drifts to dreamland.

“Sir, the results are ready!“ She walked in on them.
She had woken up around 5 am and had gone home to freshen up and have a change of clothes and yes she is back at the station.
“You are here already, we better get going.“ He said to her and she nodded having no idea what he was talking about.
He ignited the car engine, “And where are we going?“ She asked him.
He faces her and smiled at her, and she looked away as his eyes returned to the road. “That was weird,” she said referring to the awkward unnecessary smile.

He stopped the car and we stepped out of it.
“Where are we?“ I asked
“You can read.“ He replied, well that was rude I thought.
“Research centre? We are here for the result, aren't we?“
“Of course, we are.“ He replied.
“Oh detectives, you are here.“
“Of course.“
“This way.“ The man in the lab coat said and we followed him to the lab.
“Technology? Cool,” I thought.
“Detectives, morning.“
“So here is what we found we didn't sleep a wink yesterday. So we take a look at the bodies as you've instructed, You were right about the bruises, they were bruises from claws, and according to that.
As for the bullets, we couldn't get anything from them yet, since it has been washed by the rain, we will give you an update.
“Thank you, Doc.“ He said before being farewell to them and I strode behind his back to the car.
He ignited the car, “So, what next?“
“if my theories are right, I think we have another danger we'll face very soon. So, Let's find some beast and maybe a survivor.“

Tbc…
