Chapter 2: Bad dreams

Taylor walked in to find Kacie asleep on the bed. He looked at her stomach. "Ok, either she's eating too much or something weird is happening" Kacie's stomach was a little plump, but not very. He began to take off his over coat, then his jacket, and three T-Shirts. His pants were harder, considering he had on four pairs of jeans…

He stripped down to his last pair of jeans and went over to the fire. He placed a few logs into it and looked over at the table. Wolfsaeiga was lying there, collecting dust. He didn't have any need for it at the moment, but could still remember the field that he destroyed when consumed by the Wolf Fever, the many men that died under HIS blade, the enormous shockwave, the Tornado of Crimson Hell. He shuddered, remembering the blood shed. He then went over to where Kacie was sleeping and crawled into bed beside her. She moaned, not wanting to be woken. Taylor carefully wrapped his arms around her and fell asleep.

"IM INSIDE YOU LITTLE BOY, AS THE FEVER GROWS…SO WILL YOUR FEAR" Taylor opened his eyes, and saw a huge wolf standing in front of him, it's blood red eyes shone with a lust for blood, and it lunged.

Taylor woke up panting. His head was screaming in complete pain. Kacie had her head cuddled into his stomach, and was fast asleep. Taylor couldn't get that image of the wolf out of his head. He carefully pried Kacie off of him, got out of bed, and went to the table to pick up Wolfsaeiga. The blade rested comfortably in his hands. He placed it back on the table, and donned his heavy winter clothing. Picking the sword up again, tied it to his back, and took a quick glance at Kacie before proceeding out into the harsh cold.

Taylor walked down the frozen stone hallways, the tapestries illuminated with icicles that glinted in the light of the many candles that lined the wall. He walked to a large door, guarded by two knights clad in the traditional black armor of Dark Wolf. Taylor recognized the insignia on there shields: the sign of Third company's elite guard/defense Squad. Taylor requested admission into the grand meeting room, and one of the guards grunted and opened the door, allowing him inside. Taylor walked into the room, which had a circular shape to it. Seated at a rectangular table were Fox Serrano, Captain Brawn of Dark Wolf's Elite Knight Guard (D.W.E.K.G.), Wolf, and Captain Heron who lead the 54th Archery Squad. Wolf looked up to see Taylor walk in, and motioned to an empty chair beside him. Taylor sat down without a word as Serrano spoke "(ahem), now that we are all situated, I think its time to get down to business…,"
