Kapitel 13: 13. Meet Energìa

Arielle tugged the boys away as she said, "do not mention him."

Jeremiah and Jedidiah stared at themselves before looking at Arielle skeptically, "how did you manage to push the both of us without stress?" Jedidiah asked for both of them.

Arielle moaned and murmured, "it's going to be a long night."

"Huh?" the brothers sang in unison.

Instead of responding to their lack of clarity, Arielle told them, "we can't talk here, let's leave."

Jeremiah and Jedidiah were puzzled by her confidence, first, she's at the packhouse this late, and secondly, she is asking them to go out when the pack was just attacked... This seems all too odd.

Arielle pursed her lips, ' why are they just looking like that? ' turning around she says as she opens the door after giving the boys a once-over look, "are you coming?"

The duo glanced at themselves once again, Jeremiah's mind linked to his twin, <"what do you think is wrong?">

<"I don't know but whatever it is, we have to get Arielle out of it, ">Jedidiah answered back.

Arielle rolled her eyeballs when she heard them, ' tut, tut' she tsked.

As the boys followed Arielle they became more suspicious, she is wearing red and her hair is black again. Both scolded themselves for not noticing her change in everything. Moreover the path she was leading them to directed fear into their hearts. It's the place the Ultima wolf attacked!

Unsure of where she was sending them, Jedidiah asked her, "Ari... You know this was where the monster wolf attacked right? Why are we here?"

Arielle was about to speak when suddenly a figure leaped out from behind the trees, a black wolf, it transformed into a brunette tall male who has a sleeve long tattoo on his right hand." Jeremiah and Jedidiah, I thought you wouldn't be coming for patrol, " he said, he intentionally ignored Arielle because she gave him the creeps so he pressed on, "and why is that female here?"

As he spoke the citrine eyes of his colleagues can be seen although they didn't move from their spots, they are the pack warriors mixed with patrol wolves, the plan... Ambush the prehistoric wolf if it appears again. They were divided into groups, some were going around the pack while others searched for potential blind spots.

"Come out all of you, "Arielle ordered with her Alpha tone and all the eyes came from their hiding spot, she didn't intend on using it on her friends but she could feel their eyes on her.

All the wolves came out of their hiding places and stood in order, at the moment they couldn't explain why they weren't resisting the caller, "knee, "Arielle muttered.

The 50 werewolves aside from Jedidiah and Jeremiah who were staring in awe with their mouths like they were about to drop and their eyes like saucers, fell on their knees. The Alphas gnashed their teeth as this is not happening with their consent but because of the force compelling them.

Arielle turns to look at the boys, they are still speechless. " Now you know what I have to show you is significant so may we proceed?" She asked in do -not -an answer -this manner.

The stunned boys nodded coyly as if they were bewitched, Arielle turned left, leading them away from the pack of wolves but before she went further she said with her neck turned halfway, "as you were."

The wolves rose in relief, Energìa removed that memory from each of their minds. Shortly after the trio was out of sight, Gabriel the intern leader of the patrollers looked around in confusion, wondering why he and his men came out of their niches. Clearing his throat awkwardly he announced, "back in position, the wolf might show up at any time."

They did as they were commanded, waiting on a wolf that wouldn't show up.

Arielle led the boys deeper into the woods until they were in front of two trees that had a vine curtain, they watched as she parted the vine veil and motioned them to follow her, they did only to meet more darkness.

It turned out there is a cave behind the thick exterior, yet again they met another veil but this it took longer to get out of it, at some point the boys felt like quitting but afraid of what could befall them they just followed closely behind their leader.

Finally, Arielle lifted the last vine veil revealing an illuminated cave with glowing stones at every angle. Turning to them and reversing she stated proudly, "welcome to my secret hideout, the place I go when everyone is searching for me."

"Wow; "the twin looked around.

Jedidiah Bent, and picked one of the glowing stones, "Is this what I think it is?" he asks Arielle, looking at her and then at the stone multiple times, "it can't be..." he disbelieved, "EMERALD! How the fuck do you have an emerald! "Looking around again he rubbed his eyes after which he picked another glowing stone, similar to the one in his hand, "these are actual EMERALDS!!! how? When? Why do you have them?"

"Calm your horses, Jed, "Arielle smiled. "it's little compared to the ones deeper in the cave, "she told as she sat on a flat big rock that was surrounded by red and blue glowing stones.

Jeremiah being the smart one already understood that asking questions would only be answered in a bit so it was better to wait for Arielle to explain. Seated on a rock that was opposite her but near a little pond, he commented, "damn Ari, so this is where you always run off to, "glancing at the roof of the cave that had bigger rocks he whistled, "this is the life."

Jedidiah had more questions but decided to be sensible and seat by his brother, waiting for the explanation they deserved.

Arielle's hands were on her knees and her legs were patted, she sighs before she began. "I found this heaven years ago when Betty's gang of merry idiots were chasing after giving me a beating, I managed to escape and run but I guess they weren't satisfied so they pursued me, one thing led to another and I found this cave. Then the stones weren't illuminated so I just hid and explored till I was sure my offenders weren't around anymore. I discovered that this cave is worth a fortune, it has fluorite, RED BERYL, BLACK OPAL, and other crystals, I kept it away from Trieze because I know he'd abuse it. "

Winking she continues, "didn't you wonder how I pay for my school fees even when my aunt couldn't afford it? Well, I sold one of the rocks to get the money for school and that's why I refused to let you guys help. I learned to make them light up after that lesson on UV rays. "

The occurrence she told them about, only happened to her because Mayor Mark made education free for werewolves except for omegas. Trieze told him to heavily task omegas so they could give up on school and concentrate on their pack responsibilities. At that time May didn't know how to get money so she told Arielle to stop school.

"Now you know my hideout meaning I completely trust you two, "Arielle knits her fingers as she continues, rising, she moves from the rock she was sitting on to open space. "I want you both to meet Energìa, my wolf. " With that, she transformed into her Ultima form.

' plop! ' Jedidiah staggered and dropped into the pond, his brother almost fell as well but managed to get his footing back. Horror was evident in their eyes as both boys slowly reversed, Jedidiah still in the pond rose and continued slowly overturning, his eyes searching for a possible exit aside from the one Arielle is blocking.

Energìa's silver eyes looked like they could pierce the souls of the ones she is looking at, and she moved forward. <"I won't hurt you I promise, ">she mind linked the boys, scaring them even more...
