The Warrior Luna

Oblivion

No. No! NO! Everything seemed frozen in time.  My body felt cold with anxiety and my arms felt heavy. My stupid fascination with the enemy just sent my team into a death match. None of us were getting out of here alive. "I'm sorry guys." I mumbled to everyone. Shelby and Axel took in a deep shaky breath. "But get ready, because here they come." We hardened our faces and threw down our guns. They were pointless in here. We now had to all rely on our hand to hand combat skills. We formed a circle and all stood back to back. Shouts rang in our ears as we became surrounded by werewolves. Both in phased form and human form. 

Jayce and his Beta walked up to us and stood about 15 feet away. Confident that our weapons didn't work but cautious enough to stay far enough back that we couldn't sucker punch them with our silver infused weapons. All of the werewolves had solid black eyes. It looked like a void into nothing and gave me the chills. It was a reminder of how different we were and how unnatural they could be. We were surrounded. It was at least 15-20 werewolves to 5 humans. Granted we were advanced in our fighting skills but we were outnumbered and the odds didn't seem to be in our favor. The stare down continued for another few seconds. Either side refusing to move and make any quick movements. Then, Jayce cleared his throat then crossed his arms and looked at everyone then settled his gaze to my own.

"So, care to explain this to me?" His tone was authoritatively monotone but had a bit of excited curiosity in his voice. His gaze held mine. Jenna looked was on my right and was facing his Beta and Shelby was to my left and was having a stare down with the werewolves in front of her. None of us said a thing. All of us would go down in battle. We wouldn't allow ourselves to be captured. And I wouldn't allow them to be captured. I was going to kill as many of them as possible to buy them time to escape and hopefully my father would allow them back home. "We have nothing to say to you dogs." Jenna smirked and adjusted her feet into a fighting stance. Knowing full well that what she said might piss off a hot headed wolf and start the battle. But no one moved. 

Jayce smiled his pearly whites and tilted his head up in a cocky fashion. His eyes still blacked giving him a demonic look. A godly look. "I am going to ask each of you once," he held up a finger," and I expect you to tell me who you are and what you are doing here." He pointed to Jenna. "You. I can tell you are second in command much like my Beta, Aaron." He waved his hand in front of his Beta, who had the same smirk Jenna was still wearing on her face. She never took her eyes off Aaron and she seemed almost lost in thought but concentrated at the same time. "What is the meaning of this?" Jayce stated again. Jenna stayed completely still. Still posed and ready for a oncoming threat. Jayce then nodded his head as if he was expecting that answer. Then he looked at me again. My insides were going wild. But then he asked the question that set everything in motion.

"You." He pointed at me. "Who are you?"

My body went cold and my muscles tensed up as those words rang in my mind. I heard them over and over in my fathers voice. Our mantra. It felt as if a cold, heavy fog just draped over my shoulders and took over my body. I felt my eyes glaze over when I stared back. "I am nobody." I answered back as stoic as possible. Jayce's eyes widened up and he switched to a battle stance. I grabbed my twin bladed katanas from their sheaths and held my stance waiting for someone to run at me so I could use my skills and show them how the Warrior Princess operates and shows no mercy. But no one came. Why is no one coming at us? Why are we still standing here talking? None of the werewolves were communicating but they all seemed to be on the same page. Fine. I cracked my neck with one hand and rolled my shoulders back. Guess I am making the first move. "Everyone, run for the nearest door. NOW!" I ran at Jayce full force which caused the stillness in the room to shatter. The werewolves on the sides of Jayce tensed but still no movement. Then a quick smile covered his face and then a sharp sting on my shoulder. I was no more than 8 feet from Jayce and my world started to get fuzzy. The world felt like it just turned sideways and then in barrel rolls. My arms felt heavy and my body felt like it was made of water and mush. Nothing supported my body anymore. I fell to my knees and tried to take a swipe at Jayce or Aaron. My weapon felt like it weighed a 100lbs. 

As the world was spinning I looked for my team. I tried holding my head up despite the feeling of it feeling like it was full of cement. My team was on the floor in a small circle. They never tried making it for the door. They all were going to stay and fight with me. But we didn't even get the chance to fight and now we were all face down. About to meet our end. I'm sorry I failed you all. My eyes were watery. I'm the reason for their deaths. Jenna. I looked over at my best friend and she was looking back at me. She gave me a tired smile and closed her eyes. Then my body felt full of heat and rage. No, I am not letting their deaths be full of regret. I summoned all of my will power and tried standing up. I still felt dizzy and discombobulated but I was determined to take out as many of them as possible. Even if it wasn't Jayce directly. I stood up and kept my head and eyes down to avoid feeling more off balance than I already did. "YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!" I screamed at the top of my lungs and I lunged forward. Swinging my katanas everywhere that I could. I would injure or kill as many as possible. I heard a few yelps and a man scream. I knew I was drawing blood and I relished in it. My anger was powering my blows and my adrenaline kept me moving.

My world was still spinning and it was hard to focus but I kept my arms up no matter how heavy they felt. "Do not hurt her! Cameron, another dart! NOW!" I heard Jayce yell. I stopped and turned my focus on where I heard him yell. There you are! I moved as quickly as I could before I was shot with that dart again. I saw his face and the pure shock of his features. His eyes were wide and he kept looking at me in disbelief. Why was it so hard to believe that I'm here to kill you? I raised my arms with my swords and just like that. Another sharp pain but this time in my neck. I stared into his eyes for a split second. His pure honey eyes. I wish I could stare into them longer. My eyelashes felt like heavy curtains and they started to drop with my body. I fell to my knees and felt myself fall forward. Then I felt warm hands hold my body to keep me from falling onto the floor face first.

"Jayce, what do we do with the others?" I heard a voice ask. "Take them with us. I need to ask this one some questions." I heard him sigh and hold me tighter. "I never thought it would happen like this Aaron." I felt him stand up while still holding me. I feel so warm. I've imagined the feeling of being in his arms but this is so much better. I feel whole. "I know what you mean man. This is going to be a couple of interesting days. Let's close down the warehouse for the night just in case if there was more of the Hunters out there." I heard him grunt like he was lifting someone. "I wonder why it was only 5 of them. Don't you think that its odd?" Aaron asked. " Yes. Something isn't right. It was like they were sent here on a suicide mission. Normally, it would have been. But, well," I felt him looking at me, "you know." 

I started to feel myself fall into oblivion in his arms. But I heard everything everything around me. I heard orders to evacuate the warehouse and leave. I heard doors open and shut. I tried listening to where they took my team but no one said anything. Then I felt myself being put into a car then pulled back onto Jayce's lap and held. Why am I being held? Why am I not being thrown into the trunk? I felt like screaming but I couldn't move. It felt like lucid dreaming. I heard the truck start and felt it move. Where is he taking us?
