Chapter 3: Trap Part 1
The Master quickly closed his textbook, and puts them in his book bag when the bell ringed. It was now lunch for seniors. He grinned as he got up and hurry out the classroom with the rest of the students. The teacher called his name for some reason, but he pretends he didn't hear her.
He was humming to himself when he saw Humphrey, Kate, Lilly, and Garth. There was someone else with them. It was Hutch. The Master let out a silent gasp as he went to the boys' bathroom. His heart pounded as he thought to himself. Did they see me? Hope not.
He heard laughing then. The Master thought it was them. He stays in the bathroom for another minute before looking out of the hallway. They were gone. He sighs as he walked out the boys' bathroom.
As he begins to get closer to the lunch room, he remembers what happen last year. Anger begins to boil inside him. Them, he thought angrily. They tired to kill me. And they almost did! He remembers the laugher. The mocking taunting laugher.
"He's weak," he remembers one of them saying. "Helpless. Useless."
He remembers the fire. Remembering the suffocating. Remembers the black smoke. The dancing fire that tries to burned him. Remembers…the revenge.
Adalwolf had helped him. Had killed them one by one. He remembers the screaming. Screaming of fear. They begged for mercy. They had said that they would do anything. But he told Adalwolf to kill them. He was there. At every attack, so he could hear them die. He rewards Adalwolf after his revenge was gone. But the creature didn't want anything. He only wanted his Master to be pleased.
The Master thought about the school kids. The rich kids he hated. He always hated them. How they bragged about everything they have. How rich they were. Always got bunch of friends. Always threw parties. But he didn't just hate the rich kids. He also hated other people. He hated kids when they spend so much time with their boyfriends/girlfriends, which the Master thought they didn't care about their family and friends anymore. The Master hated that. Was sick of it.
I got do something, he thought. I have to do something. Adalwolf. Yes he will help me again just like to get my revenge. But I don't want him to think I'm just using him. Want what every he wants; I'll give it to him. I don't want to be a bad Master. I don't want to be selfish.
He sighed and walked into the lunch room.
Jordan got his tray of food looked around at a place to sit. He began walking to a table, but he bumped into someone.
"Watch it!" the wolf growled. Then he walked away.
"Hey, Jordan!" someone called.
Jordan turned his head and saw Easton and his sister Skye. "Come join us," he said.
Jordan smiles as he walked over to them. "What's up?" he asked as he sat down.
"Nothing much," Easton said as he took a sip of his water bottle. "What about you?"
"Same thing," the black wolf grinned.
Jordan jumped when someone tapped his right shoulder. Jordan saw Humphrey, Kate, Lilly, Garth, and Hutch still with them. "Hey, Jordan," Humphrey said. "Mind if we sit with you?"
Jordan looked at Easton and Skye. "Do you guys mind?"
"Not at all," they both said.
The five wolves sat down with the other three wolves. "Hey, I heard there were dead bodies found this morning in the forest," Easton said.
"Yeah, my Dad got a call from one of his men," Garth said. "There were three."
"What?" Jordan asked.
"Didn't you hear? Skye asked looking at him. "Three guys were found in the forest this early morning. They're bodies were…" She paused. "Oh, I can't say it."
"They were ripped to shreds," Hutch finish for her. "Police think it was some kind of animal."
"A big one," Kate interrupts.
"What's wrong Jordan?" Humphrey asked. "It looks like you know something."
"I don't!" Jordan cried. "It's just so horrible that those people died. Gives me the shivers when I think about it."
"I was just messing with you," Humphrey laughed as he playful shoves his left shoulder. "Come on, where's your sense of humor?"
"I don't know," he said.
"Well, we better get going," Humphrey said. "Next period starts in a few minutes."
The Master opens the door to the student parking lot. He got in his sliver pickup truck. He puts his black book bag in the back seat and started the engine. He grinned as he checked his left pocket of his phone.
I'll do my plan tonight, he thought to Adalwolf. He told the creature about his plan. He starts driving the forest. He finished telling his plan.
I'll get discovered, Adalwolf said. I think the plan is good. But they will tell others about me. Master I'm worried what might happen.
I won't let that happen Adalwolf, the Master thought. And what to say thank you for what…you did last year. They…deserved it.
Thank you, Adalwolf said. I'm glad to see you pleased, Master. And I found an abandoned house. I can stay there.
Good, he said. You have a place to stay warm. He stops the truck on the right side of the road. He cuts the engine and got out. He exhales as he saw Adalwolf by his truck. "Let me show you the house," he said as he led his Master in the forest.
"Here it is," Adalwolf said. The Master looked in wonder as he saw the house. The house was made of wood. The color was dark gray. It was a two story house. There were a total of six windows of the front of the house.
"Wow Adalwolf," the Master smiled. "Looks like a great place to live in. Wait, is the front door locked?"
"No," the red eyed creature said. "There was a house key in the parents' bedroom. The clothes are there. There also a gun! I went into the house earlier."
He nodded. "Want to come inside Master?" the creature asked.
"You bet," he chuckled.
Adalwolf got on his hind legs. He opens the front door. There was a creepy squeak as the door slowly hit softy on the wall. "Come inside," the creature smiled.
Inside some of the walls were peeled off. There was dust everywhere. There was a staircase on the left side in the middle of the room. The Master walked in. "You picked a good place. You deserved it."
"Thank you Master," Adalwolf smiled. "You're my true Master."
"Adalwolf…are there…more of you?" the Master asked. "I mean, like I thought your kind was the hunting and everything."
"My type of kind is very rare," Adalwolf said. "Yes, we do the hunting and everything. But I'm a servant and you are my Master. There are only two or three like me in this world. Remember last year I gave you a book about our type of kind?"
The Master blushed. "I…I never read it."
"Well, you should," Adalwolf said. "You will know more about our…bond."
The Master walked in the den of his house. His parents were not home. Good, he thought to himself. He went upstairs to his room and puts his book bag on his bed. He reached his safe. It was light green. He presses his secret code: 14565. There was a tiny green light and a familiar click. The Master turns the handle to the right and pulls it open. The only thing was in it was a book. It looks like a brown journal like in the 1600's.
He grasps the book as he slowly pulls it out. He exhales as he sat on his bed. He turned to the first page and began reading to himself. His eyes went wide as he read:
You may think they hunt, eat human flesh, and formed like…a group. But these types are VERY rare kind, my friend. My name is John Richer and I am the very first Master of these types of creatures. You can only have one to control with. You don't choose them. They choose YOU! When I became a Master, I couldn't believe it. He or she did everything I told them too. My bond with the creature name Leonidas was be on your dreams! Our bond got stronger every month. The creatures told me what I can do. Soon there was more Masters. Leonidas saw trouble, but I ignore it. The other Masters and I made an order. But a lustful man named Hunter wanted more of these creatures to control. The Masters got stronger and so did I. But Hunter wanted the power all to himself. So he killed the other Masters! And that's when…it began.
War was about the creatures. Some Masters follow Hunter, while others follow the order. Leonidas wanted Hunter and other Masters who follow his orders to die! Hunter was like a king. But I did not follow him. I and the other good Masters fought Hunter and his follows. We killed the evil Masters and their creatures. But my friends who were Masters die. I killed Hunter's creature and killed him. But it came with a great cost. Leonidas die by Hunter.
The Master had his mouth open. He turned to the next page and gasp in shocked.
After Hunter's death, the other Masters and I went on to our lives. Some of them still had their creatures. I mourned Leonidas. He wasn't only a servant, but one of my best friend's. After three months, I met another creature named Adalwolf. He chose me to be his next Master. I told him, I couldn't. But later I felt alone and so I became Adalwolf's Master. He said I am his first Master. He reminded me of Leonidas.
After a while I fell in love with the woman of my dreams. Adalwolf was very happy for me. The woman named was May. We soon got married. I completely forgot about Adalwolf. He became jealous of May. I could feel that he thinks that I don't care about him anymore. May didn't know about Adalwolf. We soon had twins. Both of them were boys. We named them Jake and Daniel.
I did not see Adalwolf in a while. While he was gone, I could feel our bond come to pieces everyday. Our bond was dying. I realized I didn't need Adalwolf anymore. So when I saw him, I told him I didn't need him anymore. The last time I saw him was that he was on all fours. He walked away from me. I heard him whine in sadness. I knew he felt alone just like as I did before…
Tears ran down his face. Bastard, he thought angrily. Adalwolf didn't deserve that. He's a great friend! He angrily threw the book to the floor. This what love does! Take away your friends and family. Make you forget about God. Doesn't make you care about anyone, but your lover. Everyday at school people kissed their lovers and all that damn shit! What about friends?! Don't they care about them? Why do they show their love all the time? Is to mock people like me that don't have friends or a girlfriend? Those people need to pay. And I know who to start with.
Kate sighed as she closed her textbook. "Finally done of that entire hard math homework."
"Tell me about it," Lilly said as she closed her textbook. "Anyway, I'm going to make a sandwich. Want one?"
"No thanks," Kate shook her head. As Lilly walked out of her room, Kate's I phone beeped. She saw a text message from Humphrey. "That's weird," she said to herself. She looked at the message. It said:
Meet me at school right now.
Kate frowned as she replies:
Who is this?
A few seconds later another text message popped up.
Doesn't matter who it is. Just meet me at school right now and bring Humphrey, Garth, and Lilly
Lilly walked in with a plate of a turkey sandwich. "Who are you texting?"
"Humphrey, but he doesn't have his phone," Kate said looking at her sister for a second and then back at her phone. "He said probably someone broke into his gym locker and stole it. So Humphrey doesn't have his phone."
"What does it say?" Lilly asked as she looked at the messages.
"The creep wants us to meet him or her at school right now."
"But it's almost seven!" the white wolf examined.
"But what if the guy who stole Humphrey's phone is really there?" Kate asked.
"Good point," she said. "Fine let's go."
"So the guy who stole my phone is probably there?" Humphrey asked as he sat in the back seat with Lilly. Kate was driving her car with Garth sitting in the passenger seat.
"Could be," Kate said.
"I should have told my Dad," Garth said. "He's the police chief. He could have track Humphrey's phone down."
As they got near the school, they saw Jordan and his car. Kate parked into the front of the school. The left front door of the school was all the way open.
"What took you guys so long?" Jordan snapped once they all goy out of Kate's car. "I've been waiting ten minutes for you guys."
"What?" Garth asked.
"Humphrey sent me a text message," Jordan said as he got out his phone. There was a message on the screen. It said:
Just meet us at the school right now. We want to tell you something.
"Someone stole my phone Jordan," Humphrey said.
"Really?" Jordan asked frowning. "So is this your phone?" He pulled out an I phone. There was a yellow cover on it. "I found this by the school's front doors when I got here. And the left door was already open when I got there."
Humphrey took his phone and said "Thanks."
"Well, this is so wired," Kate said.
"Yeah, but let's go home now," Humphrey said. Just then there was loud crash inside the school. It echoes through the front school hallway.
"What the hell was that?" Garth asked.
"I don't know," Jordan said. "Hey…Do you guys feel we're…being watched?"
"I do," Lilly said.
"Should we go inside the school?" Jordan asked. "I think we should see what that crash was."
"I think we should," Humphrey said. "Just for a minute."
No one said anything as they went inside the school. There was a dead silence as the five wolves walked through the halls. They walked turn to a corner and gasped. There was a light blue locker door on the ground. It was all smashed up. Jordan and the others walked to it. The black wolf keeled down as he looked at the lock number. The number was 202.
The five wolves looked at the locker for a minute. Adalwolf walked down the hallway on his hind legs. He looked at the wolves and grinned. He then continues walking quietly where the front school doors were.
"What could have done this?" Kate asked.
"Don't know," Jordan said as he stands up. Just as he said that, there was a huge slam.
"Come on!" Humphrey said as the wolves ran to the doors. The left school door was…closed. They tried to open it, but it wouldn't bugle. Jordan even tried kicking it. "We're trap," he said. "Let's find another way-"
There was a cold dead howl right then. "Did you guys hear that?" Lilly asked.
"What was that?" Humphrey asked. "Never mind, let's find another way out."
Jordan's hands were shaking. He puts them in his pockets. They starting walking, but Jordan stopped the others. "Do you guys see that?"
Adalwolf stood outside. He was still standing on his hind legs. He's stares at them. He got on all fours and ran at their direction. "What's that thing running at?" Garth asked.
"Us!" Jordan shouted. "Run!"
The five wolves began running as Adalwolf crash through the big windows. Pieces of glass fell to the floor. Adalwolf growled at the wolves. He began running at them. The five wolves turned to a corner. Garth stops by the boys' bathroom and pulled the handle. The door opened. "Guys in here!" he quickly said. They went in and slammed the door.
Adalwolf stops and got on his hind legs. He knew where the wolves were. Scare them, the Master said. Bring fear to them. But don't kill them. We got them trap. I'm going to enjoy this.
Adalwolf stopped by the boys' bathroom, but the Master said Leave them alone. I'll tell you when to chase them again.
As you wish Master.
I'm going to do a interview about this story. So if you have any questions, leave them in a review or PM me. Hoped you guys enjoy the chapter. And before I forget and I know I already asked this. Who do you think the Master is? And what is Adalwolf? Jwolf98 out.
