17 Aftermath (1/2)
Kara came into the house and flopped onto a couch, Sasha and Luna looked at her confused.
”And then?” Luna asked.
”I can't kill him. Last night he saved me from drowning, tonight he saved me from Jason”
”From Jason!?”
Kara was uncertain, this thing Jason spoke of, she never heard of it.
”Jason said if he bit me, his venom will fully awake me, but then i become his slave”
”What!? Where did he hear that!?” Luna roared.
”I don't know, and now we'll never know”
”Why?”
”Because Derrick killed him”
Luna was stunned to silence.
”The police already arrived there, they'll find Jason's dead body, and Derrick next to him, which means Derrick will go to jail now” Kara said unable to hold her tears.
”This is fucked up! Being a werewolf is fucked up! I don't want this anymore! So much shit i dont know of! Derrick crawling into my life! I want out of it!”
”Yes, so much shit she doesn't know of” A figure stepped into their open back door, Sasha and Kara saw it was Cate, but Luna saw someone else.
”According to law, Kara should be put to an end right now”
Luna roared jumping over the couch and landed infront of Cate.
”On what grounds!?”
”The wolf tracks she left back where she left Derrick... Those grounds” Cate smiled.
Luna's ears dropped.
”I oh no” Luna looked at Kara, but Kara and Sasha didn't look at Cate in fear, more in confusion.
”Cate?” Sasha asked ”What are you doing here? And what are you talking about ending my sister!?”
”You know her Sasha?” Luna asked.
”Me and Kara both, she attends school with us”
Luna looked back at Cate.
”Surprise” she waved her hands.
”I won't allow you to touch Kara!”
Cate started laughing ”Oh relax, they're my friends, im not here to kill Kara, im here to warn her to be carefull next time”
”But the tracks at the petting zoo?” Kara asked.
”Taken care of”
”By who?”
”Us” Cate looked at Luna ”And we came to ask you to take better care of Kara, if Derrick didn't stop Jason, Kara would have lost her free will to that scum Browning, its time you educate her” Cate stepped out ”Untill we meet again”
Luna felt her heart calm down, then turned to Kara. Cate was right, she didn't tell Kara about what Jason almost succeeded at, she didn't think she'd have to, she trusted Maxwell and his sons.
”Its true wat Jason said, if any other wolf bites you now, you will attain your full wolf form, but he would have had control over you. It's almost considered a gift from his end, to borrow you his venom in order to become the more powefull full wolf”
”If thats the case!? How will i go hunt Derrick if other wolves can do this to me!?” Kara asked.
”Next time, i come with you” Luna said.
”And tomorrow we must address Maxwell on his son who wanted to force this agreement we had”

”Derrick!” Kara's voice called him, he opened his eyes, in a hospital this time, the peeps of the heart rate monitor steady, but that was the only noise.
”Derrick!” She called from somewhere outside the room.
”Kara!” He called back getting up.
”Derrick help me!”
”Im coming!” Ripping the needles out of his arm he went to the door and looked out into the hallway, there were no one, no staff, no patients, what the hell was going on?
”Help!” Kara screamed. Derrick ran into the direction he heard her, coming around a corner he saw her at the very far end of the hall, running to him, but as she ran, the lights died behind her, she just barely stayed ahead of the dying light.
”Kara!?”
”Its coming after me!” She yelled stil running as fast as she could, in the darknes behind her he saw the red eyes, following, not coming out of the dark
”Run Kara!” He said jolting in her direction, but something held him back, he looked behind him, the white wolf who chased him had his arm.
”Leave her” she growled.
”No! Let fo of me!” He tugged hard but to no avail, Kara screamed, he looked back at her, the red eyes came out of the dark they belonged to Seth.
”Seth you fucking bastard! Leave her alone!” Derrick yelled trying to move, bit the wolf still held on to him ”You bitch! let me go!”
”She is lost, you only need me now” She growled pulling him back.
Seth grabbed Kara and just before he drew her into the dark, he changed into that black wolf in his dreams.
”NOO! YOU MOTHER FUCKER!”
Derrick flew up out of his nightmare, still in the hospital bed.
”Kara!!” He screamed but couldn't budge, he was cuffed to the bed, he frantically tugged at the cuffs but it wont break.
”Calm down” Someone said next to him he glared but saw the scarred face.
”Guinevere?”
***
Maxwell looked up from his table as one of his daughters came bursting into the room.
”Jason is dead!”
”What!?” Maxwell stood up ”How did this happen!?”
”He was killed by Michael's son”
”Impossable! There's no way!”
”I saw it with my own eyes!”
Maxwell was furious, he slammed the table in front of him then sat down. Regardless of Michaels words, not to expose his son to the werewolf world, Derrick managed to somehow use Michaels training to overcome one, and not just any wolf, his son! Maxwell didn't care anymore, Michael wasn't here anymore. This calls for revenge, he picked up the phone and dialled a number, nobody fucks with his family and gets away with it.
”Yes, you know where Seth is?” He asked upon answer.
”Yes”
”Tell him i know where Kara Fenrir is, but before i tell him, i want him to make Derrick Black suffer!”
***
”Soo, how de fok did you end up here Derrick?” Guinevere asked standing up walking around his bed.
”I, i dont remember”
She took out his spreadsheet at the foot of his bed and read it.
”Cracked jaw, cracked scull, torn muscles, cracked femurs, severe dehydration, heatstroke... Where on earth did you get heatstroke in the middle of the night? A sauna bed?”
”I have a condition called eaps, if i get angry my body overheats, my muscles tare, and because of the heat buildup i get heatstroke”
”You knew the dangers of eaps right?”
”Yes”
”Then why allow it to happen?”
He couldn't remember a thing ”Apart from all that the severe heat makes me forget what happened”
Guinevere threw the clipboard back in its pocket.
”Do you like Kara?” She changed the subject.
”Kind of?”
”What if i told you, thanks to what you did, she's now in danger”
”No! Don't tell me its Seth again!?”
Guinevere nodded.
”I already phoned someone to keep Seth away, but i need to ask you to keep away from Kara. Seth will find her through you”
His heart pounded, no, not now, he started liking her to a point where he thinks it might actually love her.
”But, i want a crack at Seth! I want to beat him to death!”
”You cant, not anymore”
