Alpha Adryan
thirty seven

The bunch of filthy rogues growl, revealing their sharp canines. As thefirst of them jump and attack, one of the warrior's wolf form, which wasstanding guard. Everyone else spring into action, the ones in the wolfform immediately jumping onto the nearest rogue, while the ones inhuman form transformed into their wolf form.

Adryan turns to Jade. "JA-" even before he could call out to her, Jadehad managed to shift into her wolf within matter of seconds. Adryanwatched as she transformed, and now in her place stood a midnightblack colored wolf with white fur around her ears and sides. Jade's wolf,Kira turns to look at him, and then turns back and runs into the field,where the chaotic fight had already started.

Kira runs to help one of the she wolves fighting one of the rogues, whohad managed to clamp its razor sharp claws onto her paws.

“Are you just going to stand there like an idiot or are you going to jointhe fight, Alpha?’ Vince voices out inside Adryan's mind, making Adryansnap out of his reverie. His voice holding a sarcastic yet annoyance atthe same time.

"Don't be such an asshole" Adryan says back.

“Can't help it when you're my human counterpart’ Vince counters backimmediately with a smug tone.

"Sometimes I wonder why the Moon Goddess decided to give me sucha smartass of a wolf" Adryan complains.

"You need a smartass like me to lighten up an uptight asshole like you."Vince replies with a smirk.

"You-" just before Adryan could complete his sentence, he's interruptedby Vince, yet again.

“We can argue with each other some other time, but now you've to shiftand help out your pack, Adryan.’ Vince's voice turning seriousimmediately, all traces of earlier smugness and sarcasm gone. His wolfwas right, here he was mentally arguing with his wolf, meanwhile thewhole pack fought the pack of rogues.

Adryan immediately shifts, and joins the fight.

Vince immediately spots a small grey wolf trying to creep on a warriorwho was already fighting another rogue, Vince immediately releases awarning growl, catching the rogues’ attention. The rogues eyes widenwhen he spots Vince's huge form, but that doesn't stop him fromfighting because the very next second, it tries to snap at Vince's facewhich angers him, lifting his paw immediately and swiping his long andsharp talons across the rogues eyes, causing the rogue to move backand whimper loudly, blood immediately oozing out of wounds like awaterfall, Vince clamps his jaw onto the now blinded rogue's neck, andimmediately bites down, causing it to whimper out loud one last timebefore the sickening crunch of breaking of bones is heard. Vincereleases his hold on its neck, and the rogue immediately falls like a bagof potato.

Not a second later, a mahogany colored rogue, missing chunks of itsfur in different parts of its body appears before Adryan, saliva drippingfrom its mouth as it growls at him. It's eyes holding the same crazedand glassy look the others held. Vince shakes his head from side to sideand then immediately lungs at the rogue, catching it off guard with hisweight, knocking the wolf onto its side, Vince doesn't waste timetearing into its side and killing it off effortlessly.

Adryan's form moved effortlessly and swiftly, killing half of the rogueswithin a matter of few minutes.

Kira clamped her jaw onto the grey colored rogue’s front paw, causingit to whimper in pain. It tries to move away but is unsuccessful as Kirasnaps its paw, the rogue immediately goes down due to the pain,taking this to her advantage, Kira swipe her claws across its neck andchest, causing the chunks of flesh to be ripped away, she watched asthe rogue breathed its last breath. It's eyes drooping and finally closingshut as it breathed its last breath.

Kira looks up, and replace herself standing among a sea of dead bodies,the scent of blood and rotten flesh hung heavily in the surrounding,causing her to sneer in disgust.

She herself felt icky as she was covered in blood of the dead roguesand some of hers as well.

She hadn't seen Adryan, or his wolf, anywhere. Furthermore, she hadbeen fighting for a good ten minutes, but she didn't even catch aglimpse of him.

There were still some pack members fighting the last of the rogues,most of them lay dead, it seemed like the very few big ones out of thelot managed to survive this far, but that wouldn't last long.

Jade turned her head, she spotted two pack wolves trying to take downa big rogue, it looked vicious as it clamped its jaw onto one of the packmembers sides, causing it to whimper out loudly due to the pain.

Jade immediately transforms into her wolf form, she was back in thewhite dress she had worn earlier, the only difference was that it wastorn in places with dirt and blood smeared in most part of it. She hadlearned how to use her magical powers to her advantage, like this forone; which helped her to transform to her wolf and human formwithout tearing her dress.

It seemed like the rogue was overpowering the pack wolves as one layinjured on the ground while the other still held his ground.

Jade couldn't run in her human form and help him, so she did the bestthing she could come up with. It wasn't a smart move on her part, butshe didn't have time to waste. Someone was going to die if she didn'tact soon enough.

"O mater, natura me adiuvet in hoc discriminis tempore, terra suumfaciat cursum" Jade chants under her breath, her eyes glowing green incolor with both her hand pointed towards the scene in front of her.She felt vibrations beneath her feet right after she had cast the spell.Jade watched in awe and surprise herself as thick tree roots sproutedout of the ground from beneath where the wolves were fighting. Thisscene had managed to capture the attention of almost all, as the rest ofthe rogues were killed off. Only the one standing in front of herremained now.

The rogue watched in shock as the roots rose from the ground beneathhim, it tried to move away from them, but it seemed like the roots hada mind of their own as it tracked its movements, and in a flash they hadmanaged to wrap themselves around the rabid rogue in a tight hold,holding it in place and making it immobile.

No matter what it did, the roots didn't break or snap. The rogue eventried to snap its canines at it, but it didn't work. Everyone stared inshock as the wolf tried to get itself out from the hold the roots had onits body and limbs.

Before anyone could come forward and kill it, someone else did.

It all happened so fast, one minute the rogue was struggling to be free,and the next something had jumped on top of it.

Jade stood shocked as something jumped over her head, all she couldsee was a black flash before it landed on top of the struggling wolf.Even before she could blink, the unknown animal had viciously andeffortlessly torn the rogues head off of its body.

Everyone watched with wide eyes at the scene before them.

Jade's eyes had turned to the size of saucers as she stared at the blackcreature in utter shock. Her breath got knocked out as it turned to lookback at her with its red eyes, which terrified her to the core.

It looked so terrifying as it stood in all its hulking glory with glowingblood-red eyes, with long razor sharp canines that were now coatedwith blood over it, infact the creature was drenched in it, causing itmidnight black fur to appear damp. The creature was huge with well-built muscles carved on its body. It's long, black and sharp talons weredripping with blood.

"Adryan” she calls out to it, her voice meek and small.

Just as she calls his name, its red eyes flash blue for a second, causingher breath to falter as she was proven right.

It was him. It was definitely Adryan.

Jade felt something wet trickle down her nose, lifting a hand she placesher finger under her nose, and the scent of her own blood entered hernostrils. Bringing her hand down; she stared down at her fingers inconfusion. It was coated with her blood.

She looked up at the creature's or rather Adryan's now glowing blood-red eyes. She could feel herself getting dizzy, and her vision turningblurry.

Through her blurred vision, she watched as the creature started movingtowards her, before she could fall forward the creature manages tocatch her before she hit the ground.

It wraps its long arms around her.

"You're a..." Jade's words turning slurry "you're a..", before she couldfinish her sentence, she faints.
