The 7 Sins of Luvat: Lust's pet

Chapter 1 -Tulikko - The Large black van I'd been tailing pulled up to a third warehouse today. I was hiding in the nearby woods I'd been using as cover while following it. Thankfully the rain hid my scent well, and while it made things miserable for me I was able to follow without being heard as easily. "Suspect appears to be picking a group of children up from an old warehouse. Requesting permission to pursue the target. Over." "Permission granted, proceed with caution. Over." The voice sounded from the radio I had in my pocket. There had been numerous reports of kidnappings across the country, and a woman named Veronica Ashvits had been seen at many of the various locations. She was suspected to have a part to play in the kidnappings, so I had been sent by the Order to confirm these suspicions. In the event they were found true I was to find out why and where they were being taken. This woman had been all across the country for almost 5 months. She had been gathering kids left and right, but I still had yet to find out where or why they had been taking them. There had been a few times I had to pretend to be a normal civilian or my cover would have been blown. The last time a d*** rat set off a trap and almost blew my cover at an abandoned building on the outskirts of a small town. I had to keep farther away so I wasn't able to hear what her conversations were about anymore. Today I was finally going to find out the where and hopefully the why. She came around the vehicle to talk to a tall guy with long black hair. He wore a ripped, dirty t-shirt and jeans that looked like they had been dragged through the mud. The woman I had been tailing was slender and had black hair that had been neatly tied in a bun. Her long sleeve black dress came just below her knees, accompanied by her signature black grimoire fastened to her hip. She oozes power and walks with a purpose back to the driver's seat of the vehicle. As soon as the vehicle lurched forward, I was on its tail, never straying too far from the target. It used to be pretty challenging keeping up with it on foot through the woods and fields without giving away my position. Thankfully my training back at the Order had helped my agility and endurance immensely. When I was younger the Order told me it would be too dangerous to let my wolf out due to my lack of control over it. So they had it sealed away, when I needed it and I was strong enough the seal would break on its own. So until then I only had the human part of me to really focus on, unfortunately without my wolf form Parkour, and agility were my only options to keep up as a vehicle or horse would be too obvious. I needed to be able to duck in and out of places on short notice, and you couldn't really do that when you had to worry about something else drawing attention. After about 15 minutes of driving down back roads the vehicle stops around an old business building. It didn't look like anyone else was here aside from the target and kids. "Target has arrived at XXX BLUE CREEK LN, will continue to observe the target to determine motives for previous actions. Over." "Roger that. Over." The door opens and she walks around to the rear of the vehicle, opening it and getting what looked like 20 kids out the back one at a time putting hospital bands on their wrists. I moved closer to one of the windows on the side and peered in to see a trashy dirty area, there were more kids inside coughing and with dirty tear stained faces. There was some blood like they had been coughing it up and screaming coming from another room. I moved to investigate the next room, there was a kid or what was a kid screeching and tearing at its skin like it was burning. All at once bones started growing out of its head and back, the kids eyes rolled back and turned red leaking blood down its face. Whatever this was wasn't human or a were person. A doctor suddenly opened the door and seemed excited about what had happened. He started speaking in a weird tongue and the creature responded in the same language. What the hell was going on here? Could they be making demons using supernatural children? I moved to another room to see if I could make sense of how they were doing this or why even. The target was here this time, she had her grimoire and a syringe out, she was chanting something as she injected an unconscious kid with the syringe. The room dimmed and on the ceiling was a summoning circle, everything in the room started shaking violently as a black figure oozed out the ceiling and into the kid. Then everything stilled, there were a few moments of silence then the kid sat up and snapped its dark gaze into my direction at the window. I had been spotted, my cover blown. I had to get out of here before they were able to get their hands on me. Bolting through the woods and back the way I had come I didn't stop till I was sure I was somewhere I couldn't be found. I went to pull out my radio and talk to the order but here was nothing but static and no response. I tried 3 other frequencies and got nothing. Great I had no communication with the order, only thing I could do now was make my way back without being followed and report in person. It took 5 hours to get back to base, everyone thought I had been captured and were about to start a search n rescue mission. "Is the council here?" "Yeah, building 2 floor 3"someone called "Thanks" I stopped to get some water and made my way up the stairs to the third floor. Finally making it to the council room, I stepped in to greet the council. "Good evening council, my name is scout Tulikko Hange. I am here to make my report on recon mission XXX." "Very good scout Tulikko, but why not report it through the radio?" "My radio seems to be unable to reach the right frequency sir." "Very well, what did you find?" After explaining my findings they looked between themselves giving knowing looks and nodded to dismiss me. "You may leave, thank you for your report." "Yes sir, have a good evening." I closed the door and gave out a sigh of relief. I looked at the time and it was roughly 4pm I had some down time to myself, but before that I needed to take a proper shower. You could tell I had been roughing it out in the woods for about 5 months. The water was nice and warm against my skin as it washed away the grime. My lovely hair had gone back to its original strawberry blonde color now that the dirt was gone. enjoying the warm water was nice but my mind soon began wondering back to the events of today. What were they doing to the kids? How did the kid know I was there? My thoughts are soon interrupted by the growl of my stomach. Guess that meant chow was the next spot. I finished up in the shower and put on my grey t shirt and a pair of black leggings, grabbed my stuff and towel dried my hair. I opened the door and heard a loud thump like someone hit it. Shocked, I looked around and saw a sturdy looking guy holding his face with grey slicked back hair and a nice looking black suit on. "I am so sorry, are you ok?" He had piercing gold eyes that raked over my body as if he was evaluating me, it made my skin crawl. He nodded a yes and started walking away with a smirk on his lips. I hit him with a door and yet he was happy? What was wrong with that man? My stomach reminds me just then of what I was doing. Just as I was about to get to the door an announcement rings over and lists off a few female names including my own. It instructed us that there were a few tests that needed to be run and we were to report immediately to room xyz for testing. I groaned with my stomach in protest and begrudgingly made my way to the room. There were a handful of females here all about 18 they were from different MO'S though. The click of a door opening caught my attention, there was a scrawny looking guy with glasses and short brown hair wearing a whistle and holding a clipboard. He smirked looking around like he was excited. "Greetings ladies, today we need you to run three tests: Athleticism, wit, and Aura. Please take a moment to get stuff together. We have a competitive course that you will be timed on first." I rolled my eyes, great more tests. "4 minutes 2 seconds." The scrawny man calls to me. I nod and write the time down beside my name. Looked like the other girls were averaging 5 minutes. I suppose I should have guessed given the mission I was just on, I was fitter than I had been before. I recognized a brunette that was finishing the obstacle, I think she was a part of the logistics team. She seemed to be pretty fit and healthy, but something was off. Normally in training she would give it her all and give me a run for my money, now she seems sluggish. I watched her pass the line and get her time from the scrawny man,she was gasping like she was out of breath and exhausted. "5 minutes 43 seconds." She looked visibly frustrated,but made her way over to me. " You good?" She looked a bit startled that I had asked something like that,but with the way she was huffing, why wouldn't I? "Uh…. Yeah. I'm good." I nodded and handed her the clipboard, "ok." After writing the time down she began to sway a bit and hold her hand over her face. "Need some water or the bathroom?" I asked her She nodded and I went to the test proctor to tell him we were going to the bathroom. "How long have you been feeling like this?" I asked "Um…. I don't know." She looked as if she had an idea but didn't wanna say anything. "You sho.." before I could finish she had started running to the nearest bathroom with her hand over her mouth. I chased after her only to hear her blowing chunks in the stall. After about 5 minutes she came back out and had cleaned herself up. It was then that I noticed the hickey on her collarbone. Could she be seeing someone, it definitely looked like a hickey. "Is this the first time you've thrown up today?" "No, earlier this morning, do you think maybe I caught a bug?" She looks at me hopefully. " I think you caught something, but I don't think it's a bug." "What do you mean?" She gives me an irritated look. "How long have you been sleeping with the guy?" Her eyes widen and her mouth gapes open. "H…how did you know?" "The hickey on your neck. I think you might be experiencing morning sickness, nausea, and fatigue." "But those would mean that I'm…. O..oh my God you don't think?!" She looks to be going over all her options mentally and begins mumbling to herself. " I think you should take a test to start, you should be fine. I'll go back to the proctor and tell him you weren't feeling well." "T..thank you." She stutters out. I take a quick look at her name tag that reads "Selene Ravira" and make my way down to the test room.
