Warrior (Shewolf)
Chapter 32: Sudden Attack

"What are you doing here?"

"I should ask, what are you two doing here?"

"I... I visited my cousin. And I'm taking Gyria."

"really?"

"of course. You remember my cousin Rodney." Erica pointed at the smiling Rodney then waved her clumsy hand.

"I know Rodney. But you didn't tell the pack if it was going to go. At least me. I'm your beta, did you forget?"

"Well.. I-i-"

"And since when have you been close to Gyria? I remember you guys being hostile."

"It's not forever that I will continue to be hostile to him. It's about Allana." Anyway."

"Allana? What's wrong with her?"

"We're looking into the temple's whereabouts."

"You're looking for that temple?" derek asked, nodding Erica's head. "But why? Won't Allana be safe there?"

"But there's no word from Derek."

"As long as he's with the warriors and is in the temple, he'll be safe."

"You sure?" this time Gyria asked. Derek looked at Gyria.

"of course. You're not sure?"

"Doubtful. Because I didn't hear or even see any movement from Chloe's luna."

"What does this have to do with luna? Isn't it safe for Allana to be there? That luna won't bother him anymore."

"That's the problem. Luna Chloe won't stay silent. He had taken most of Allana's wolf soul, almost gaining all of his father's magic power. He's gonna get stronger. His strength would be perfect if he obtained the entire soul of the wolf Allana. They have witches anyway. We just need witches to find the temple, while they're available. Between them and us, who do you think is left far behind. Luna Chloe with most of Allana's wolf soul plus her father's magic power, will be able to defeat the temple warriors."

"Why do you still call her Luna? She doesn't deserve to be called luna." Erica muttered.

"Then by looking for the existence of the temple, what will be useful for? The temple warriors are stronger than you, maybe even me."

"At least I want to make sure Allana's okay, then I'll do everything I can to help her."

Derek sighed, looking at the girl standing before him, so stubborn.

"If you get hurt, or even die, it won't do you any good. Besides, your presence will make Allana difficult. Because he's gonna struggle between protecting you or protecting himself."

"I didn't ask to be protected. If need be I'll hide, help her without her knowing."

"Why are you so stubborn? He's safe there. He was assisted by the temple warriors. And I heard, if the temple warriors are in trouble, they will call the chosen ones. Hear you? The chosen! She's not a witch."

"I know who was chosen. We learned it too. But as I know, the elect will not interfere in the affairs of a people. While all the problems are still in one race. Up until now only witches were involved and I heard the elders will overcome the witches by Chloe's side. But until now no one has acted. Even I heard, the witch who was on Chloe's side of the luna wasn't in the three classes of witches!"

"Okaayy's... And how do you know all that?"

"It's none of your business I know where it all comes from. Clearly, I know it and I need to know where the temple is right now."

Yes, Gyria does know all that, thanks to her friend Leysha. Leysha is freed from Chloe's luna's suspicions and they have always met in secret in a place that only the two of them know. Leysha tells Gyria everything she knows.

"alright. But it's still dangerous. There's no need to search anymore, because no one's going there."

"What?!" Erica and Gyria were both shocked. Derek switched on Zach.

"Thank you for the alpha notice. I am deeply indebted."

"A-ah.. Ahahahaha.don't be like that. You also helped me when I was in trouble at that time. So don't be shy. I only told you because I was worried. Since they're your subordinates, I think I need to tell you."

"It's alpha."

"I'll keep looking for him."

"No Gyria, I won't let it."

"You have no right to ban me."

"You're a member of Hysort's pack now, which means you're my responsibility."

"I'm not a member of any pack. So you can't ban me."

"Ohh.. So you're a rogue?"

"Take it that way." replied Gyria Ketus.

"Then what about your mother and sister?"

"They'll take me away, take it easy. I won't trouble your pack anymore."

"Where are you going to hide your mother and sister? You know, luna Chloe's gonna figure out a way to get you and your mom and sister back. And if that happens, you'll make Allana miserable."

"Not to worry. We can take care of ourselves." Gyria walked away. Derek chased after her then held Gyria's arm, preventing her from stepping.

"Why are you so stubborn?!"

"Take my hand off."

"I forbid you for your good."

"no need. I can take care of myself and my family. No need to bother."

"Can't you not be stubborn?"

"Hmmm... What's wrong with them?" rodney whispered to Erica. "Is this a love problem? I'm tired of Zach and Karen's romance."

"Don't take me."

"What's? Thas right. You fight with Karen a lot."

"But they are visible.... Together. Are they mate?" daryl asked who was still staring at Derek and Gyria who were still fighting.

"I don't even know what's going on between them." Erica shook her head.

Hosh hosh

It's been a while since Allana started running. But he still didn't see anyone. Allana paused for a moment, wiping the sweat on her forehead and adjusting her breathing. I don't know what, where and why he's where he's at. He kept running but found nothing. Just stay in place, but everything stays the same. He's like locked up. He tried to scream, calling out to anyone he knew. There is no lawfulness whatsoever.

"Allana?"

A call made him shocked. He looked towards the voice. He found a beautiful woman who looked familiar to him. Allana just fell silent in her place, staring at the woman who was now smiling at her. The woman walked closer.

"I know you will survive and not give up." said the woman. Allana didn't speak a word, even pardoned no. The woman was now standing in front of Allana. The woman smiled and tilted her head.

"You're very strong. I'm proud of you."

"thank you. But... But who are you?" allana finally asked as her brain gave up on finding out where she had seen the woman. The woman laughed a little.

"My face seems easily forgotten. But maybe because we only met once in your dreams."

"Dreams?" Allana tried to remember. Suddenly he remembered something. "Wait, you're-"

"Right, good to see you again."

"Wait, how-how did you get here? Is this a dream?"

"I'm here to help you, Allana. I was given the chance to help you and yes, this is a dream."

"Help me? Meanin?"

"You know, the power you have is not easy to control. You have ancestral powers now. It will help you survive. It also gives you a chance to fight back and take back your serigalam soul."

"So... You're going to teach me how to use this power?"

"true."

"What... Did you have this power before? Is it so hard to control?"

The woman laughed. "really. Tisan once gave me his strength like you. But I made a mistake, a mistake that was enough to make me have to accept the consequences and lose the Crysort pack."

"What?? So then... Pack Crysort destroyed... Rue... You?"

"Of course not. The pack was planned to be destroyed. But I should have been able to save him. I was also a temple warrior who decided to walk alone and form a pack. Tisan blessed me with his powers and with my magic power, I was invincible. But because of my selfishness and my greed, I got a fair reply. Tisan's power is gone and my warrior power can't break the prophecy. Which should finally wait for my next descendant who has powers like mine. But yeah.. That said, all this indirectly, because of me."

"Then?"

"Pack Crysort is destroyed and you're going to put it back together. That's his prophecy. But the prophecy could change."

"really?"

"certain. It depends on your decision."

"What does that mean?"

"It is your decision that determines everything."

"But... What decision is that?"

"You'll find out later. Now, I want to know how you feel."

"Uhm.."

"The power you have, what do you feel?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing?"

"Of course it's different. Warriors are a great power. The strength of the fusion power was strongest in the werewolf, beta and alpha clans. While the power of Tisan, different powers. Very strong."

"Am I going to have trouble?"

Brea smile. "Of course not. The Tisan that's inside your body right now, will help you. Just don't be like me. Stay with your pure heart."

"But my warrior powers are on par with alpha and beta powers only I can't control, how are you sure I can?"

"Of course you can. It takes a struggle, but it can still be done."

Brea approached Allana and gently stroked her hair.

"Use the rest of your serigalam soul."

"But I can't. I'm too weak for-"

"No Allana, you can. You know why you've been failing to control your warrior power all this time? Because you are not united with your strength. You just feel it and want to control it. If you really want to control it, unite with your strength, be the power itself."

"But... I don't know how to."

"You'll know. It's right here." Brea pointed at Allana's chest. "And here." Brea's hand turned to Allana's head.

Allana looked confused.

"Connect with your heart, soul and mind. Then that power will be yours, forever."

Before long Allana's hands look faded. Allana was surprised and looked at both of her hands.

"It-it's.. This why??" Allana started to panic.

"Remember Allana, your decision will determine the future of the Crysort pack. Choose it well."

Allana's vision began to blur. All of them looked white and faint for a moment. Soon, it began to look clear. Some leaves from lush trees. Allana blinked her eyes repeatedly. He could feel the gusts of wind and the sounds of some people.

"Allana? Are you awake?"

Allana held her body. He's staring around. Now that he remembered, he was training with the other warriors.

"Well, are you awake? You slept for a long time." said Tristan who now stands in front of him and extended his hand to Allana. "Come, get back to training."

Allana sighed and welcomed Tristan's hand.

"Are you okay? Not surrender?" ask Harold.

"Of course he didn't give up! Is it All?" Kevin answered.

"It seems I suck at this." lamented Allana.

"You don't suck, just lack practice." Harold's calming.

"No, he sucked. It's so bad." Alan said.

"Hey, hey, hey.. He doesn't suck. Harold's right, he's training less. After all, he hasn't been a werewolf for long so it's only natural." said Kevin.

"Are you his mother? Why do you keep defending him." Alan shook his head in wonder.

"I'm just-"

"Stop defending. And prove me wrong. He couldn't even beat that fat Ed."

"Hey, hey.. Don't take me." protested Ed.

"Everybody knows, Ed's the weakest of us. He can't even beat her? Are you kidding me? Huh! He's lousy. Not suitable for alpha and beta warrior powers."

"Have you forgotten he lost that power?"

"Yes, yeah... Classically. He said he used to practice with the Crysort pack. If he's trained, he'll still be able to, at least, match Ed. But unfortunately, he couldn't. How could he control the strength of the ancestors?"

"Easy, stop. We are both learning here. Alan was patrolling outside the temple with Tristan, Sam and Howard. The others are back in training."

Alan soon turns into a wolf after Sam and Tristan.

"Alright Allana, let's train again. No need to think about Alan's words. He is like that." said Harold.

"Harold's right. He's cold to everyone here and likes it. You'll get used to it later."

"What you-"

Suddenly there was the sound of a wolf roar so loud.

"Whatis that? Isn't that Tristan's voice?"

"Just they came out. Is there a problem?"

"Kevin, go see."

Kevin nodded then changed himself and left.

"I will also go to the temple. You guys stay up here."

"Harald!! Harold!!" Howard ran up to Harold in a hurry and had a pale face. "Harald.. Tris-Tristan.."

"What happened to Tristan? Calm down first.. Breathe." said Harold. Howard's breath hunts.

"Something attacked us as soon as we exited the temple territory."

"attacked? Who?"

"That's the problem. We can't see it."

"What does that mean? Why can't you see it?"

Howard shook his head quickly. From his face looks scared.

"Harld!"

From a distance, Alan and Kevin sighted Tristan unconscious. They brought him near Harold and placed him on the ground.

"What's wrong with her?" ask Harold.

"We... We don't know. We were attacked" said Alan, who still looked panicked. Alan's body was full of blood and wounds.

"Alright, treat your wound first and-"

"No, I need to know if she's okay."

"I'll take care of it! Worry about yourself first. There! Ed help Luis clean up and treat Alan."

Ed and Luis immediately let Alan go.

"Harry, check on him."

Harry immediately crouched down next to Tristan and examined him.

"He was too weak and.. And..."

"Is he okay?" ask Allana.

"And what's Harry?"

"His body... His body hardened."

"What?"

Harold checked Tristan's body immediately. His entire body turned cold and frozen. Start at the feet and start spreading.

"What's wrong with her?"

"I don't know."

Harold walked over to Alan who was cleaning his wound.

"Alan tell me what happened? What's the matter exactly?"

"I don't know Harold. It all just happened. Even the ones who attacked us, we don't know. I can't see it."

"And Sam? Where is he?"

Alan remained silent. He just remembered Sam.

"I... I don't know. The creature attacked me and attacked Tristan. Last time I saw Sam was helping to get Tristan. When I was free, I saw Tristan was helpless and Kevin came and took us in. Then me... I don't know where Sam is. L'm... I don't remember."

"No problem. We'll find. You rest."

"Tristan, how is he?"

"His whole body was frozen. Harry is helping her. Just take care of your wounds first."

"Harld!"

From a distance Luis called.

"You better see this."

Harold came to Luis and went with him. Harold and Luis came to the border. There the other warriors had gathered, staring out at the border in horror. Harold immediately stared at what the other warriors were looking at.

"God.. They're..."

"Rogue."

They all stared at the hundreds of rogue who stood staring and growling at them.
