I was lost, who was talking to me? I turned my head several times before I felt my body being swept away from behind and soon a familiar smell invaded my being.
Without waiting, I placed my hand on the ones around my hips and smiled.
" You came."
I whispered before seeing something like a passage in the wall from which Chad, Pamela, and other people came.
I screamed as Pamela came to hug me.
" I am so happy to find you sister…"
I smiled before I saw Chad and thought of Spencer.
He probably saw my look because he frowned.
" A problem Sophia?"
I swallowed hard before speaking
" Chad...I'm sorry...Spencer, he's dead."
Chad took a moment to understand before scowling.
" Dead? I don't understand…"
I sighed starting to tell him what I knew and as I went Chad's face fell.
" So that was it…"
He spoke with a smirk before pulling himself together.
" He made his choice and lived by... I can only pay tribute to him for that."
Chad went a little far, no doubt, to mourn while Greg turned me towards him to kiss me.
" I thought I was going to die…"
He spoke, hugging me as I smiled.
" Me too…"
Greg moved away from me before shifting to let an extraordinarily beautiful woman pass. I scowled. What was it with my boyfriend to always be surrounded by beauties? It's starting to piss me off.
" Greetings Sophia... I'm so happy to finally meet you."
I frowned before feeling my body go through strange vibrations. Cici started jumping in my mind looking way too happy.
**Hey, calm down, you're freaking me out**
I spoke when Cici wasn't listening.
** Don't you realize what's going on!? Sophia, she's part of your family, she's an alfe**
I opened my eyes wide as the woman smiled sweetly at me.
" Sophia, how you look like Neliel, so beautiful, so pure…"
She caressed my cheek as I felt a strange feeling inside me, not discomfort but it was strange nonetheless.
" Allow me to introduce myself. I am Neltu, your father's twin sister."
What? My aunt? So young?
She chuckled before nodding her head.
" I know it's hard to believe but it's the truth. I am Neliel's twin. If you look closely, although our skins are different, we are identical."
She showed me a picture of them when they were young and my eyes opened wide. Indeed, they are identical, I begin to understand why Mom has cracked.
Neltu smiled before frowning.
" I would like to discuss it again but the time is not right. We are in the enemy base and he can appear at any time.
Greg agreed with Neltu as we ran towards the exit, Neltu is the one who was leading us.
Further on, André and a few people around him were smiling at the chaos he had created. The enhanced mutants were rampaging through the city killing any humans who managed to hide from them. It was a tantalizing sight. He looked to the side at those humans he had managed to capture before smiling.
" Now miserable creatures, lower race, how do you feel? And to think that it is we who have lived marginalized while you are so weak."
The leader of the ghouls arrived with his calculating eyes
" When are we going to sit down to eat? They are so appetizing."
He spoke salivating over the humans as Andre looked at him in disgust. These ghouls, only think about their stomachs.
" Later. I have the impression that the authorities of this city have failed to contact the emergency services. I would hate to have to deal with the human army, their weapons are far too powerful. And Greg Travis, where is that human?"
André snarled as no one found Greg.
" Shit, I need him. He is the symbol of human success over creatures. If I can have this human at my heels, it will legitimize my power in this city which seems to belong to him even if the Alpha of Soul Moon prides himself on being its master."
He looked over to the Travis entertainment building before biting his lip.
" Find me this human, my spy assured me that he had not left the city."
He looked at the human timetables before seeing the scholar he had placed among them to proclaim the existence of the creatures.
" Master... I did as you asked, I caused trouble. Will you turn me into a creature like you promised?"
The man smiled at Andre then smiled back. Then, the latter pierced the man's chest with his hand.
" I do not negotiate with slaves…"
The humans witnessing this started crying for some as soon an ally of Andre came running.
" We have a major problem, the Alliance, it has joined forces with the hunters and they are coming towards us."
" How? Oh, whatever, the mutants are powerful enough to settle this matter... Is the Soul Moon Alpha present?"
" No master, it is Duke Vangard who is leading the offensive on this side. The Witch Queen is in the north, Elsa and Tom are in the south, Rayan takes care of the west, and the hunter leader is in the east."
André scowled. They quickly took over the buggers. Anyway, if that brat Trent Grantz isn't here then he's gone after his sweetheart. Perfect, it will save him unnecessary headaches.
" Well, I'll let you take care of the rest, chief of the ghouls. With the modifications I put in you, you can easily take care of Duke Vangard, right?"
The man smiled.
" Since then, I have dreamed of having a party with this arrogance."
André nodded before walking towards his base. He will finally be able to realize his dream, the unique and incomparable power of this Soul Moon kid will finally be his, and with that, he will be able to conquer not only Capital City but the whole country and why not the world?
He thanks this man for coming to him and showing him this way.
He ran into his base while on our side, we were facing a more than strange sight
What was that?
There was in a tube, a man with pieces of flesh of different colors stuck to him. He looked sleepy and frankly, it was too creepy. It looked like something out of a science fiction movie.
"What is this horror?"
Chad expressed the sentiment of all as soon we heard an explosion behind us
"ah, there you are…"
We turned to find Andre staring at us with a smirk.
Greg stood in front of me as everyone was on guard.
"Ah... My little Sophia, why this hateful look? I have a surprise for you, we can say that you are their mom."
When Andre said it, I felt my body go cold as hundreds of mutants surged out from behind Andre. How many humans have this man kidnapped?
I didn't have time to ask myself the question too much because soon, the mutants had thrown themselves on us.
The fight was tough and we soon found ourselves overwhelmed.
" Haha, Soul Moon Alpha, my little Trent, your pheromones are powerless on these creatures because of their complex alfe nature. And if you want to use Dominium, you'll have to put everyone here in danger because you're surrounded and it's impossible not to hit an ally in the lot."
Greg gritted his teeth. This man had detected the weak point of his power. His power strikes any creature within a determined radius, it is so powerful that he cannot circumscribe his radius which makes it impossible for him to extend Dominium here because his allies are scattered and the enemies too.
He gritted his teeth before seeing Sophia fight. He doesn't allow it.
He looked at Neltu and with a nod, she understood.
She opened the same passage through which they came commanding all to pass.
" Oh no, you're not going anywhere…"
André growled as he ran towards the passage but Greg got between him and the others.
" Trent…"
I shouted not seeing him coming with us. All the others had already crossed the passage and there remained only Pamela, Chad, Neltu, and me.
" Come, please."
Greg didn't respond as he blocked the mutants coming our way. André launched a powerful attack at him shattering his mask much to Chad and André's amazement.
" The Alpha of Soul Moon is Greg Travis?"
Chad was dazed while André recovered from his surprise, and started laughing like crazy.
" What a wonderful surprise! I have been looking for you for a long time."
Then recovering himself, he frowned.
" Don't let my grandchild run away."
He ordered the Mutants and Greg turned growling.
" Pamela takes Sophia away from here, it's an order from your Alpha."
Pamela cried before nodding her head.
" Good master."
" No Pam, we can't leave him here... This madman wants to eat him... Let go of me... No, Greg…"
Chad gritted his teeth seeing Greg's gaze before knocking Sophia out.
"Take her away from here and protect her, please."
Greg spoke as Chad nodded.
Neltu gritted her teeth before also entering the passage
"Good luck Sir Trent…"
Greg smiled, oh that, he will need it.
