Amaranthine Dawn Of the Supernatural

Part 14

"Who the hell are you?" asked Jim as Peter hands over the phone to Griffin. "You came." said Peter to her. "What?" said everyone except Peter and the girl. "It's complicated, what's your name?" asked Peter. "Lynede." said the girl. "Lynede, you mean like Lycan?" asked Jim. "Look at her eyes." added Ilayda. "I… need …help... all of you." said Lynede. "You need help? From all of us? Why? From what?" asked Peter. "Who is she?" asked Eve. "What she asked." added Griffin. "Lynede." Replied Lynede.

"Yeah, I know that, but who are you really? How did you know about this place?" asked Griffin. "What have you been doing to Peter?" asked Jim. "What?" asked Ilayda. "What do you mean doing to Peter?" asked Griffin.

"Dude, everyone asked questions right so I..." said Jim. "She didn't do anything to me alright? I invited her, she's like us." said Peter. "What? Like she has a gem too? Let me see." replied Jim. Peter goes over to Griffin and takes the gem and shows it to Lynede. "Do you know what this is?" asked Peter. Lynede approaches closer as she looks at it with eagerness. "It can't..be…" said Lynede. "What do you mean?" asked Eve. Everyone suddenly looks at her. "What? You were going to ask, weren't you?" replied Eve.

Everyone turns their attention towards Lynede. Without a warning, she approaches closer towards the table and starts rummaging through the things. While the rest are curious about what Lynede is trying to do, Eve slightly catches a glimpse of Peter but turns back when Peter looks back at her. "It is not….here." Said Lynede. "What's not here?" asked Ilayda. "Lynede, tell us, from the beginning, what is going on? I know you want to help us but please help us understand." said Peter.

Lynede stops, then looks at Peter, then at Griffin, then at Ilayda, then Jim, and finally Eve. "You all wear pieces of him, you are Mal'cath." said Lynede. "What? Who's Mal'cath?" asked Jim. Lynede looks at each of them once more, then at the Amaranthine. Then he shows out her empty hand, Indicating Peter to give her the Gem. Peter thinks for a moment and looks at both Griffin and Eve, then sighs as he begins to hand over the Amaranthine.

But before he could give, she holds his hand and takes the Amaranthine then she shows it to Ilayda who was close by.  "I.. don't understand... do you want me to hold your hand?" asked Ilayda. "I will show you, all of you." said Lynede as she looks at each and every one of them. Ilayda after a gulp, proceeds forward and holds her hand and the Amaranthine. "Do it." said Lynede.

Ilayda draws out the powers of the Amaranthine and her eyes glow purple, then energies flow from within her and starts to surround the others too. Then, after the energies surround the others, Ilayda closes her eyes until the energies consume her. Then slowly she opens her eyes again where she finds herself in a beautiful forest along with the whole crew who has also arrived. "Woah! Holy s**t! Ilayda, what the heck did you do?" asked Jim.

"I didn't do anything." said Ilayda as Lynede lets go off her hand and opens her eyes, she looks around in surprise and suddenly laughs in happiness. "I didn't think it was going to work but, it worked." said Lynede.

"Looks like someone took English class through telepathy." said Eve. "Eve for God sake, for all you know you could be in a alien planet, quit bitching around." said Jim. "I can move things with my mind i***t, what's more alien than that? Besides, this place kind of looks…familiar." said Eve. "That's because it is… Lynede, is this Wakefield Falls?" asked Peter.

Lynede looks at Peter and smiles, then nods. "She brought us here, from her memories, it was her home." said Ilayda.

"Wow, this used to be Wakefield Falls? Damm…" Said Griffin. "Come on." said Lynede as she grabs Jim's hand and runs. "Woah what the…" replied Jim while being dragged, rest start to follow her where she leads them to her camp. It was a pleasant site to see than the forest. There are humans working side by side despite being indifferent to each other through many means.

Some are dark skinned, some are short, some are muscular, and some are…wolves who seem kind enough to help each other, these wolves don't seem much gigantic like the purple ones but they don't seem aggressive either.

"This was my village, a place of peace and prosperity, us wolves, the guardIans of nature, protected and provide security for the needy and the poor, we help everyone and everyone helped us, it was simple as that." said Lynede.

 "So, you're a werewolf?" asked Eve. "There are many kinds of… werewolves as you called but, yes I am." said Lynede. "Damm, I don't know what to say, couple of days ago I was hunting vampires in Skyrim on my console and now this? Damm, the world is alot weirder than I thought it was." said Griffin. "We are nothing like those blood sucking leeches." said Lynede.

"So, vampires are real too? This keeps getting cooler and cooler." said Jim. "Lynede you said different types of werewolves, what do you mean by it?" asked Peter.

"For thousands of years, we guarded nature and nature gifted us, the ability to turn into a force of nature itself when it is threatened, at the beginning there were many tribes, Homid…Glabro…Crinos. Lupus and us, the Hispo, Crinos was the strongest, lupus was the wisest and we were the balanced, the three of us were unstoppable, we ruled for centuries as guardIans of the nature." said Lynede.

"You said five… what happened to the other two?" asked Ilayda. "The people of Homid and Glabro often felt displeased with our ways, so they went their separate ways, Homid followed the ways of science and now evolved to be what is known as Humans, the people of Glabro found themselves their New God so they followed his way, the way of blood." said Lynede.

"Cool, vampires." said Jim. "They are not, they are no longer part of this world this world anymore, they belong to the world of the dead." replied Lynede. "Awesome." replied both Griffin and Jim in chorus. "What does this have to do with us? And the gem?" asked Eve.

"Over time, there were disputes among the clans, the people of lupus felt that it is best to divide our clans, but Crinos declined, said it is best if we would stay united, since they were the strongest, the people of lupus had no other way but to comply, but over time their leader Merlin was granted the ability to do magic, he used this to perfect his clan and they evolved into mages, the people of Crinos felt that this power rise will cause Lupus to rise above them, so they planned to.. thin them out.. even though we advised them not to, they massacred them, it destroyed their trust with them, so we too went their seperate ways, and came here, we were in peace, the humans kept their limits and we kept ours, so we thrived, until Mal'cath came." said Lynede.

She becomes quiet and in complete silence. Rest of them look at Peter to which Peter sighs. "Who's Mal'cath?" asked Peter.
