49 Darkness approaches (2/2)

”How will you accomplish that?” Maxwell asked looking at the three sisters who came out of the dark to join them, eery smiles on their faces.

”I want the first crack at him” Shiva said kicking at Derricks head.

”No” Elsje pushed her away

”Ive been waiting for a while to sink my claws into him, i go first” She said but Silvia split them apart.

”Sorry, i want to try an interrogation approach first before you two bitches accidentally kill him”

”Listen to you! you're not a cop anymore Silvia, we beat the answers out of him, thats how we work” Shiva yelled making Seth laugh loudly.

”Whats so fucking funny!?” Shiva yelled at him.

”Im going with Silvia on this one, i want him alive as long as possible, and you two might not have enough restraint to keep him alive for long”

Shiva looked angrily at Silvia, who stuck her tounge out back at her.

”Skank” Shiva hissed.

In a cinder block building behind the shed Seth opened a door, this was the dry storage room of the farm, but just before you go in there is a steel trap door leading to an underground cellar. Back in the day the three rooms down there had separate purposes, one was a wine cellar, one a cold meat storage, the last the butchery. In the cold storage Seth strung Derrick up by his wrists using chains, his feet now just touching the floor.

”He'll break those chains easily ya know” Elsje said.

”I know, i came prepared for that” Seth said and drew a knife.

*Kara and Luna*

The soft drizzle of the late evening rain pitter pattered on Luna's face, she held her nose to the sky, eyes closed.

It was peaceful here, she knew comming to Angola was the best possible decision, and better yet, the Nyati clan agreed to offer them sanctuary, and not only that, training for Kara.

Luna looked down at the open field infront of her, the sunset making Kara and her opponent Ruth look like that of a film, two warriors standing to face eachother in a dramatic scene.

Since the disappearance of the Nina, her daughter Ruth took over, and Naledi of the Diphiri clan was there to help her with the ins and outs of being a pack leader.

”I think you know all i have to teach” Ruth said lowering her fighting stance, Kara, now a fully grown woman was probably the tallest there, Valkarie's genes shone through clearly, her length, her slightly larger than avarage build, even that viking muscular structure was clear, Luna smiled inwardly, what would Derrick think of her now? Kara sighed and turned to Luna.

”I guess this is it then?” She said comming over.

”Are you sure you want to go back?” Luna asked.

”Yes, i owe Derrick that much, and if Seth is still alive, i want to help Guinevere kill him”

Luna felt a knot in her gut, alot has changed for Kara in five years, but who's to say Seth hasnt gotten stronger aswell?

Then there remains the question of who's venom awakened Kara? It was a slow process yes, but after two years Kara has fully become a wolf. The only person who could have accurately pointed out who did it was Alice, Luna's mother... but there's a wretched pirate who is better off missing.

”Its peaceful here Kara, why not stay? There's no danger here”

”Im not afraid anymore mother, i can handle myself”

Luna sighed but nodded, afer half an hour of packing supplies, both Luna and Kara started driving back to South-Africa.

*Sabers*

”Shit...! Shit! Shit! Shit!” Quintin yelled slamming the table. Ezbar only rubbed his brow in frustration.

”Whats going on!?” Katja asked comming into the room.

”Luna and Kara are heading south”

”That doesn't mean they're going back to Pretoria” Katja said.

”Its the only reason they would go, Luna would probably have voted against it, but Kara is the one who would want to go back” Quintin said looking at the computer monitor.

”Then... we leave them be? Right?” Katja frowned.

”No, we have to put some insurance in, just to keep Seth's fangs from her”

”Then who will go? Were not sure what the American fleet is doing heading here, so we need our strongest to be ready, and thats you two and Cate” Ezbar said.

Quintin dug in his head for answers ”What about DPK?”

”They themselves can pack a heavy punch, id rather suggest you send them to the fleet, that is, if we can find them. Koos hasnt been answering my calls lately” Ezbar replied.

”Then me and Guinevere can go” Chane said listening to them from the door.

”Guinevere?” Quintins heart cramped. Since her outburst back at Maxwells mansion, they had her under lock and keep. She was classified a failed experiment, so it was either kill her, or lock her away untill furhter notice. It was painful for Quintin to do it, but he couldn't kill her, he still loved her dearly.

”She”s... she's too much of a risk” Quintin said with a heavy heart.

”Not anymore” Chane said approaching ”She's in control of herself now”

”We cant say that forsure, unless we fix that chip in her head”

”That chip has been removed by Koos a long time ago” Chaine snickered.

”What? How? And why?” Ezbar asked standing up.

”Beats me, they had to knock her out to get it, but, they succeeded, just cut it out straight forward, i mean, Guinevere can heal right”

”But why!?”

”I have no idea, if you meet them you can ask them yourself, for now come with me, i want to show you something” Chane lead them down deeper into the underground bunker to where Guinevere was being held.

”Observe” Chane somehow found the key to the large steel door of her cell.

”Chane, don't be hasty now” Ezbar said.

”Relax” he said and twisted the key.

Both Quintin and Katja felt their hearts racing, they haven't seen Guinevere in years, Ezbar expected her to fly out and tare at them, but she calmly came into view, her hair hanging just above her knees, the shackles she was in was red of blood, she probably tried to break them in the early stages of her imprisonment.

”G... Guinie?” Katja murmered.

”Mom?”

Katja leaped onto her daughter and held her tightly, crying uncontrollably.

”Im so sorry Guinevere, please forgive me”

”Its ok mom, i'd lock myself up after what happened, but now...” She looked at Quinin ”I want to set right my wrongs, let me have at Seth, im aching to get another...” she was abruptly interrupted by Quintin drawing her in and holding her tightly.

”Come on dad, i had a whole speech prepared”

”There's no need, please just promise ne you'll be safe”

”Don't worry, Seth should be the one to tred lightly” Gunevere held the shackles up and sprang her claws. Cautiously Ezbar unlocked the shackles on her wrists, Guinevere smiled and tossedthe shackles back into the cell.

”Im going to go clean up” She left leaving everyone silent.

Quintin looked at Chane.

”How did you know she calmed down this much?”

”Well, it wasn't easy, to tell you the truth it took me almost five years to make it work”

”And wat did you do?” Ezbar asked.

”You know how she can see the aura around a person? It usually helps her judge if the person is afraid of her or not? Well she kept saying she saw this 'Blue of fear' in my aura, but to tell you the truth, i wasn't afraid of her”

Quintin frowned ”Ok? So what does that mean? If youre not afraid of her, then what does the blue in your aura mean?”

Chaine shrugged ”I love her, always have, so i reckoned if i stay with her for as long as possable, she'll get used to wanting to attack something that fears her, get over that urge”

”And she didn't attack you?” Ezbar asked.

”Yes she did, numerous times, but remember doc, im a werecheetah, theres no way she could catch me”

Ezbar chuckled but Quintin slapped his sboulder ”Come! We must put things into motion, otherwise if that fleet is on its way to SA, who knows what the future holds”
