บท 33: Chapter 33 Need to go

(Erik POV)

Erik I need your help. Please come as quick as possible. Cassidy.

After reading the first line the world stopped. No I guess I'm the one who stopped. I quickly scan the rest of the message, finally finishing it I rush to find Max. He was in the living room talking to Sandra. Seeing me flustered he had a confused look on his face.

"Erik, you ok man?"

"I'm leaving for a few days, your incharge till I get back."

I walk down to the armory and start to suit up. As I was getting equipped Max came rushing down the stairs.

"Hold on, more information is needed for those who can't read minds. Guess what, I don't read minds. Why are you leaving."

I finished putting on the tactical gear and started to pick out weaponry. Blade, two knives, an assault rifle, and two pistols. Enough ammo to get me through a goblin tribe in my bag. I stop and look at Max.

"Cassidy needs my help."

The shock that covered his face would have been priceless another time.

"Wait, didn't see get married. Also why would she only contact you now? What aren't you telling me?"

"She didn't get married only engaged, he is with her at the moment. She is with a medium size group that took shelter with one of the canadian military forces shelters over in Kingsville."

"That's not far, why did you say a few days then. What exactly does she need help with?"

"Gremlins, kinda like goblins but even smarter. They excel at creating things and ambush tactics. Apparently the shelter is surrounded by thousands."

"THE HELL ARE YOU GONNA DO ALONE THEN!"

"I'll figure out a plan, you know I always do."

"Why not take the team. With all of us we could probably destroy one side of the entrapment and help the survivors escape."

"No, won't involve them in this. The gremlins are dug in deep as well, if we tried it your way we could get wiped. I will go alone and figure out a way to first get inside the shelter, understand the situation, then come up with a plan to save the shelter. Worst case scenario I knock Cassidy unconscious and bring her back here."

"And her fiance?"

"If he is still alive he would do well to stay away from me."

"You or your little passenger?"

"Both."

"The team won't like this."

"Doesn't matter. I'll deal with the aftermath when I get back. Don't screw up and kill everyone."

"Great, no pressure at all."

I don't reply as I'm already making my way up stairs and leave through the front door.

(Hunter POV)

Wow, Ruby really liked those games. I must of been in that cafe for at least three hours, ugh my body is stiff again. I get out of my bed and do some simple stretches. I notice the white egg again and I can't help but wonder what it is? I'll go see the twins to ask them what they bought.

Looking around I finally found them working on the vehicles with victor running around. I wrap my arms around Jasmine and kiss her neck. Seeing Jessica looking a little jealous I laughed and brought her into the embrace as well. After a few minutes of kissing and some minor groping something caught my attention.

"Where's Frost?"

The twins look at each other then back at me. Jessica started to explain. Apparently after I went to the battle arena the twins kept playing with the two little ones. Eventually Frost told them through the forum messenger that she was really tired. She went back to my room and curled up into a ball. They don't know why but Frost then became the child sized egg I saw in my room.

At first I thought it was a joke but they weren't laughing. Well I don't think it's anything bad but I'm still gonna go check on her. Victor came over and nibbled my ankle.

"What cha want bugger?"

He sent me a message.

Give blood and I tell you a secret

Is he blackmailing me? Whatever I'll play along for now. I scratch open a small wound on my palm and let a little blood run into victors mouth. He seemed to enjoy it quite a bit. Well I made sure none of my poison was in that blood but still, it is kinda disturbing to think about how much he enjoys drinking my blood.

"Ok, what's the big secret?"

He sent another message.

You can wake up big sister faster by giving her some more blood.

Wow, I really am going to be sucked dry aren't I. Well might as well go check anyway. I walked back to my room as the twins followed, Jessica carried Victor. On the way we meet with Cassandra who was eating a meal and talking with Jacklyn. When she saw me her eyes glowed with a slight bluish tint. She wound up following me as well. Once back in my room I examined the egg more closely then before, sure enough it's surface was covered in a small snowflake pattern almost exactly like Frost's scales.

After I finally finished examining it I still don't really understand what's happening to her. With nothing else I could do I made another cut on my palm and pressed it against the egg. The egg reacted immediately and started to absorb the blood like a sponge. After a minute I took my hand off and discovered the egg grew a size and the pattern was even clearer. Nodding at my job well done, even if I didn't really do anything besides be a snack.

I didn't have much more time to consider the problem because before I knew it both Jessica and Jasmine had the same bluish glow in there eyes as Cassandra. Jessica put down Victor on the ground and he crawled under the bed. The three of them became very, let's say forward. Before this I was wondering what to do about Cassandra but the twins had no problem with her and we wound up exploring the draconian body a little more thoroughly. Apparently the draconians were a more straightforward type in bed so the foreplay drove her crazy from having no mental preparations in advanced. The twins took great pleasure in teasing her in every way they could.

We had quite a bit of fun and they wouldn't stop for three hours. In the end they each got a few loads from me to satisfy their lust and were now extremely tired. I watched them as the three cuddled together on my bed. I was about to go get some food to replenish some of my energy when the egg moved. I was so startled that I hit my head off the door. It didn't hurt me but I was slightly embarrassed.

Walking over to the egg and I can see it shaking. It also rocked back and forth as it shook until finally a cracking sound started. A large crack spread from the top to the bottom and it seemed like Frost was forcing her way out.

Crack.
