The Alpha's Return

"Shut up. Don't act as if you know everything. In fact, you know nothing at all.", Elyon gnashed his teeth.

"Looks like you are getting quite desperate.", Michael laughed.

Elyon's eyes glinted in blue, and he charged towards Michael. He raised his fist to meet with Michael. Michael raised his hand to block the fist. All of a sudden, Elyon disappeared from where he was running. Michael's face changed. He quickly turned around.

Cough!

Michael coughed out blood. He staggered forward. He looked behind, and saw Elyon standing there with a smug face.

"If I can take you down with me at the least, then this will all be worth it.", he said.

"Do you have no disregard for your life? Is what you are doing really worth it?", Michael asked.

"Do you think that I fear death? Death is just a journey. And unlike you who stand on the wrong side of this coming war, I do not need to end my journey there. I can always come back.", Elyon laughed as he lunged forward.

"What did you just say?", a cold voice came from behind Elyon all of a sudden. Elyon froze and turned back. Praneeth was standing there with a furious gaze.

"Did you just say that you can come back from the dead?", Praneeth asked.

"How did you get there? I did not hear you. What are those idiots doing?", Elyon turned his head to see what his pack members were doing. Unfortunately for him, most of them were almost dead. A few were left, barely fending off the attacks of Angela and Raphael.

"Where is the red wolf?", Elyon turned back with terror.

Lucas was standing in front of him, just inches away.

"The gods of the underworld and the devil are backing you? Backing this charade?", Praneeth asked.

Elyon staggered back. Lucas did not move forward though. He was still, like he was made of stone. His face did not change, and he did not make a single movement.

"Answer me. What did you mean when you said this?", Praneeth asked.

"I shouldn't have spoken. All I need to do is take one of you with me.", he looked at Michael. But Michael was no longer standing hunched. He was standing straight with a serious face.

"Play time is over. Let us get to the interrogation now.", Michael said.

"Interrogation? You people don't know how to interrogate someone. I do. Just turn around and let me do my job.", Lucas said coldly.

"Do you think that I am a snitch? I would rather die than reveal anything to you.", Elyon said as he raised his hands and stabbed it towards himself. Lucas moved. He became a blur, and he held Elyon's hand firmly.

"You will not be able to commit suicide on my watch.", Lucas said.

"There is something in his mouth.", Fenrir's voice suddenly said.

Lucas let go of Elyon's hand and quickly reached forward to grab his mouth, but it was too late. Elyon bit down with his teeth, and all of a sudden, there was an extremely pungent smell.

Michael and Lucas both retreated back a few steps. "That is a very potent wolf bane. How was he able to keep that smell away from us? And within his mouth at that?", Michael wondered.

"Damn it. Just when we were getting somewhere. This marquess is as mysterious as when we first heard of her. We do not know anything about her.", Lucas said with frustration.

"We know that she wants to destroy the whole world for some reason, and that she is an apostle of Apophis. That is much more than when we entered this building. Let us see what else we will learn about her. But one thing that truly worries me is what this man said. They can escape death? Are the gods of the underworld planning to overthrow the gods?", Praneeth asked.

"Don't be stupid. Hades and Zeus don't hate each other that much.", Michael said.

"Who knows what they want? Many want the world for themselves.", Lucas said.

"But the way to do it is not by destroying it.", Michael said.

"Why are we arguing about this now of all times? What we should do is pretty clear, isn't it? We will climb the tower, and we will reach the Marquess. We know that she is here, somewhere. Vanquishing her is the goal. And we need some answers from her.", Praneeth said.

"When you say it like this, it all looks so easy. Well, let us just finish off those small fries and talk about this with the others.", Lucas sighed.

He disappeared and reappeared next to one of the few werewolves remaining. He pierced his hand in the werewolf's chest, and clenched his fist. The poor boy did not even have any chance to react. He slumped down and fell to his knees.

"Let us get this over with.", he said with a growl.

"What was going on there? What happened? Why did Praneeth move?", Angela asked.

"We will talk about this after these pups are dead.", Lucas said.

"Alright. Let us finish this faster then.", Raphael said. He moved and intercepted a werewolf charging at them. Lucas also moved forward and took one of them coming towards him by the throat. He crushed it, and threw the head away.

"Why do you use such redundant methods like draining the stamina off of a wolf? You should just go for the vitals. Head and heart will finish one off in an instant.", Lucas said.

"Its not like we are all experts in killing like you are.", Raphael said.

Lucas scoffed. He looked at the last remaining werewolf. The terror in his eyes was apparent.

"When you see your leader in hell, or wherever you end up, tell him that if he dares to step foot in the mortal world once more, then I will be there waiting for him.", Lucas growled.

He then lunged forward and finished the werewolf off. Blood splattered all over his clothes.
