Hey Dan what's up? asked Ant when he saw h coming down the hall looking stressed.
We need you in the Office the elders council have come to discuss heading to your old pack today and well shits already hitting the fan he replied.
As they walked briskly to Christians office, Ant piped up probably not the best time to meantion this but I really don't feel myself today it's hard to explain. Dan paused looking at him glancing head to toe. What you mean by not your self?
I feel like me but more like what I'd think I'd be on steroids I mean I feel stronger, hear everything like a damn pin drop in a nightclub with the music playing level everything, my body feels pumped and aware of everything and I mean I mean everything I can tell you how many are this floor and if they awake or asleep and the best exit already. I don't know what is going on but this ain't normal man He quickly informed him.
Dan stood a moment unsure what to do with this information and if he should be concerned. Thank you for being honest with me, I'll mind link this to Alpha Christian before we get in there as I don't know if the council will need to hear about it or if we should keep it to ourselves.
They both turned and headed for Christians office once again in a bit of a hurry. Pausing for permission to enter Dan said to Ant brace yourself, if you need a minute to calm down honestly just walk out and take it Christian has already given it the ok with you feeling a little extra sensitive and unsure why. Ant simply nodded and the entered.
Inside were all 6 council members though Ant could only put a name to two of them Elder Marks who lived here and Elder Montgomery who seemed to do all the vocalisation for the members. Then there was Alpha Christian looking a little annoyed and his gamma.
Christian looked up ok now we're all here let's go over this again. You Elder Montgomery followed standard procedure in event of an Problem Alpha and submitted formal notification that you all would be in attendance today at the pack to discuss the issues raised in regards to treatment of his daughter and his children's disappearance.
That is correct Alpha Christian confirmed Montgomery
This morning you received notice from their Alpha Ant and Casey's farther that your entering their territory is not authorized? and should you enter you will all be killed.
Again that is correct Alpha Christian confirmed Montgomery.
I was under the impression no Alpha can refuse entry to the Elders and the request sent is merely a formality he continued.
That is correct, we may still enter and any attack upon us is against our laws and therefore will only succeed in securing his death for his actions. We believe he knows that is the outcome either way and he wishes death before his crimes are layed out before his pack.
I suspect you are correct agreed Alpha Christian. Ant do you have any insight to your farther that would help ensure this went through proper process rather than war and him not face what he has done?
Ant took a deep breath trying to control his anger, However he knew his wolf was on surface and he was barely maintaining hold. Thankfully his eyes being black and his knuckles white from gripping his seat had told everyone else this was the case so they merely waited patiently for him to be ready to speak.
Finally he won and his wolf backed up giving him proper control allowing him to speak from a rational mind. My farther is very selfish if he thinks he can order every wolf to defend the territory of the elders enter and start a war to allow him to escape rather than fight or stand trial he will he'd sacrifice the whole pack, if he sees he can't escape at that time he'd still sacrifice them and himself to not be held accountable.
The only way of gaining entry without war that I see so that he has to be accountable would be to lure him off his territory and take him in custody then return as one to the pack to lay out his crimes and punishment also rounding up all those involved who have come to hear you speak his crimes, even then you'd need a mop up crew around the border to catch any that tried to leave rather than be accused and punished.
Alpha Christian smiled I see you Excel at strategy Ant that is a very valuable trait in times such as these.
Elder Montgomery also smiled and declared with a slight smirk Indeed it is , however there is another way that it seems you are unaware of assuming your sister mated last night which my observations give me the impression she may have.
All eyes turned to him what observations are they? Alpha asked He merely shrugged I see Ants wolf is agitated and fighting for dominance against Ant today, his body language implies change that he's unsure of, maybe that change is increase in ability? he said raising an eyebrow at Ant who gave a single nod in response well then your sister is mated her powers are in effect and yours will also be unshackled.
Mine? Ant said startled
Yes young man yours, you are her Alpha, you are her brother of the same bloodline, you are her protector now she is of strength so are you. You will be strong with or without a mate, your physical strength and cunning will be out matched by no man or wolf. You my dear boy could snap your dad kneck with a twist of your wrist and no effort what so ever. Your healing will be accelerated your senses magnified. Not only will you be able to mind link your whole pack at once but you will be able to omit certain members on choice and when it comes to your sister you will connect with your mind's eye meaning you will be able to both see what she sees, hear what she hears and hear what she says to you though mind link, this additional link will also be possible with your mate.
Christian sat mouth open at this new information, good job were friends and allies he said slowly this caused Ant to laugh.
Ant turned back to Elder Montgomery, so I have all this extra stuff going on it doesn't change strategy for the capture of my farther. he said looking puzzled.
Ah but it does, he exclaimed, this makes a world of difference. we can entre with you at our side and your permission. You as you are still an official member of the pack can now link everyone except those who we are there for, informing them to meet at the pack house and your farther is no longer incharge we are there for his disaplinary. This will avert the war if only because it's been so long since they heard from you that they are confused and curious. You then send a separate link to those we are there for that we no about excluding your farther and mother pulling a meeting for your safe return and possibly your sisters to really catch attention, before Ant had chance to object he continued Not to worry she obviously will not be there she will be here safe with her mate to protect her.
We go straight to your parents and take them to custody, shortly after the others we want should arrive for your little meeting and we put them will the Alpha and Luna for trial. Once the pack comes together they will be informed of the crimes committed and given the chance to defend their Alpha, Luna and friends. Questions will be asked and reactions monitored to ensure we have all who need to be punished and then the agreed punishments will be given.
You make it all sound so simple Ant said not sure this plan would work this plan assumes the pack and territory will recognise me as Alpha of the pack so your smell won't give us away, it also takes to assumption that the boarder patrol will bow down to me on sight which there is no guarantee of.
I can't speak for our smell not giving us away true however the patrol will bow down to you, you will have your Beta at your side he has already requested such your pack will recognise you and give you the respect that is rightfully yours.
Dan stood up Well this has been an eventful morning so far. I think Ant here needs breakfast and a break mostly because I do so how about we all think on that for two hours then come right back here to hash out the details
Elder Montgomery looked puzzled this time two hours, why ever so long for breakfast and a stretch? he asked
Dan grinned because that stretch will be our hour long training session at the grounds that starts in half hour and trust me you'll want us to shower before coming back in here he exclaimed
Alpha Christian laughed can't miss a training session now can we.
Dan shrugged hey we maybe at war by end the day this session could be vital. Besides if he is all wired with extra power he exclaimed nodding to Ant, then he could do with taking it a spin before being in a confrontation don't you think?
Everyone looked round the room then back at Dan Agreed they all said together like children in a classroom saying good morning. He turned chuckling at the response and led the way to the kitchen for food
Oh Beta Dan, you may want to include Casey and Ricks in that exploration of new power given, they have both just received their wolves plus additional strengths and powers which came with them mating. Called Elder Montgomery.
Got it called back Dan waving a hand at him and sending out the mind link to the love birds.
Butts up and at practice you pair time to train and see what you can do as humans and wolves, plus now your all mated and marked up thanks to the lovely Casey you guys have a few powers to become familiar with. Guna be a hard hour for you two and been as you missed yesterday I'm guna love kicking your assess!!! he said sounding all happy and ready to go when in truth he just wanted food.
