The Moon Goddess's Gift

Chapter 3 - The Rescue

Logan POV

I looked over the plan that the Alpha King had sent.  My pack was called Eclipse Pack and our task was to get into the prisons of the Shadow Pack and retrieve all the prisoners.  The Alpha King believes that there are many missing werewolves within their prison so my pack has been given the job to get them out and rescue them.  I would really prefer to be in the thick of the fighting but it is an honor to be trusted by the Alpha King for this task.  

My Beta Dean is in charge of the first wave to enter the prisons and I will be leading our second wave.  My Gamma Chris will be in charge of taking inventory of everyone we rescue.  My orders are to rescue the kidn*pped and leave the prisoners for trial.  Luckily our pack has a small coven of white witches, they keep to themselves but their youngest Angela helps with pack matters requiring magic.  Tonight she is coming with us to help determine who we need to rescue and who to leave for trial, she has a handy spray which always makes people tell the truth.

Dean, Angela and I are currently standing with our group of 100 warriors waiting just outside the border of the Shadow Packs Territory for the Alpha King's signal to go in.  We can hear the other packs warriors attacking and it's making my wolf Lee pace in my head.  “How much longer?” growled Dean as he was bouncing to get into action.  “Patients is not my strong suit” he moaned.  “I know Dean, we grew up together remember” I laughed.  “Shush both of you we need to listen for the signal” Angela whispered.  Before long much of the fighting seemed to end and we were signaled to enter.  

“Dean you take your 50 warriors and get into the prison, Angela and I will follow with the remaining, make sure you mindlink me any problems Angela can’t protect herself like we can” I said “Speak for yourself” Angela said as she zapped me.  “f**k Angela stop that! It wasn't funny as a kid, it's not funny now” I whined.  “Children, we have a job” Dean smirked as he started out with his warriors.

Angela and I waited for Dean’s signal that it was clear.  Typically I don't like being the last in but Angela’s safety was important to our pack.  “Everything is clear Alpha, we took out a few guards but most were already out in the fight” Dean mindlinked me.  “Good don’t touch anyone until we get Angela in to see who's who” I mindlinked Dean.  “Angela lets go” I said as I turned to my warriors “Stay outside the prison unless I call you in, remember this is a rescue mission so there will be a lot of scared wolves”.  “Chris, we are going in please send in the rescue vans and be ready” I mindlinked my Gamma Chris.  

Once at the entrance of the prison my warriors secured the area and Angela and I entered.  I was astonished by what I saw coming in.  The prison was a cave, dirty and smelled, most of the prisoners we came across were malnourished and badly beaten but none of them looked like the kidn*pped.  “None of these wolves appear to be the kidn*pped wolves” Angela said, she had read all the reports before the mission knowing who we are looking for.  

“Alpha down here” I heard Dean yell.  Angela and I made our way to a silver door which had been blown open by Dean Warriors.  “This part of the prison is different” Dean motioned for us to enter and he wasn't wrong.  It was a much more sterile setting, it was bright and instead of cages like the other area it was made of rooms with silver doors.  

Right away you could see most of the kidn*pped wolves we were sent to rescue.  Many of them were Women and Children, we weren’t sure why they were kidn*pped but it was assumed they were to be slaves or traded in the underground market.  “Get them out and get them to Chris and the rescue vans, keep three warriors to a van and get them back to the pack”.  Dean and the Warriors got to work.  

Angela and I walked around to assess the room.  Angela took interest in one of the cells as my wolf started dancing in my mind.  ‘What is your problem, fool’ I muttered to Lee but something pulled me towards the cell.
