So I've been feeling really… down lately, and so this might not be the best.

I tried though. If only that was enough.

…

Benny sat there, struggling against his restraints; they wouldn't budge. He knew he would be stuck there until he could either get that stupid thing off his ankle and change, or wait to be killed, or worse, changed.

He sighed and hit his head against the back of the chair, sighing again.

He just had to hold out a little longer – Ethan was coming for him, he was sure. He tried to recite some spells in the meantime, hoping to blast off his restraints, but no luck – not only were they anti-wolf, but anti-magic too.

He was screwed.

All he could do was wait.

…

Ethan paced circles into the grass outside of his and Benny's houses – he was anxious to get going, but they all needed sleep; hell, he needed sleep, but he couldn't. He howled at the moon, a low agonized sound before he began pacing again.

"I'm sorry this happened." Ethan jerked around and growled at Sarah, who frowned at him. "I know you're mad at me. But there was nothing Rory and I could do." He just growled again and turned away from her. "I want to help get him back." Ethan barked at her, all anger – she just sighed and turned away. "I really am sorry."

"Well, we're not going to get any sleep with you pacing around like a love-sick puppy," Grandma said, trumping out of her house with a big back over her shoulder, Erica behind her, also loaded down with supplies. "Here, eat this." Ethan ate whatever Grandma threw to him, catching it in mid-air – as soon as he had swallowed whatever it was, he felt as if he was coursing with intense energy. He looked to see the older woman eating one as well. She saw his perplexed expression and explained. "Energy snack. It will make us able to focus without being exhausted. Let's go." In a matter of minutes, she had transported them from her house to the Vampire Council House. "Let's get my grandson back."

…

On the opposite of the Vampire Council House, many pairs of eyes could be seen glowing in the dark bushes that surrounded the rundown building. They watched as the trio made their way in before, one by one, they stepped out of the foliage, following the scent that the large dark-brown wolf had left behind.

…

Ethan turned back a bit, thinking he had heard something.

Not seeing anything, he followed Grandma, who sent a sonic-blast throughout the building, making all the guards collapse to the ground. Together, the trio walked slowly through the building, on the lookout for something, anything, that would come to attack them.

Nothing came for them though.

No matter how soon they walked though, they would soon be in the meeting room, where they were sure everyone was waiting for them.

…

Benny felt his seat jerked around and carried away. He kept his eyes closed until he was sat down, opening them to find the little vampire girl grinning at him.

"They're here," she said in a sing-song voice. Benny, even though he was overjoyed to know someone was coming to rescue him, kept his face impassive. She just smiled and leaned closer. "So, you ready to die, or even better, join us? With your magic, you'll be a good accessory to my rule." He just stared at nothing, not letting her in on how he was feeling. She hissed but smiled again, standing up and facing the large entryway into the room. "Any minute now…"

…

Ethan stopped right before they could enter the room, turning to face behind him, only to stop and stare at the small army that had gathered behind him.

Wolves of every shape, size, and color were there – there had to be at least 30. Ethan looked at them, confused on how they had all gotten there, until they began to kneel before him. He looked at Grandma and Erica, who both looked confused. Grandma put a glowing hand on Ethan's head so she could hear him.

"Grandma, what the hell? What's with all the wolves?"

"Did you call them to you?"

"No! I don't even know how to do that!"

"Well you must have. You are an alpha after all; granted, by magic, but still an alpha. You must have called them to you, and they are here to help. They will be useful I think. They are not as strong as you and Benny, but they are strong enough. And there are a great many of them here, because you asked for their help."

"I did?"

"You must have. You must speak to them. I will silence the hallway so the Vampires don't know." Ethan nodded as Grandma removed her hand, waving it. A sparkle fell around the group before Ethan let out a low, questioning bark.

A wolf, smaller than Ethan but larger than the rest, stepped forward and barked back. They briefly exchanged a small series of barks, growls, and sniffs until they were finished. Ethan looked at Grandma, who put her hand back on him so they could translate again.

"He said he's the leader of this pack, but he's very old. He was waiting for a strong young alpha to come, and they think it's me. They heard me and Benny howl before we came home. They followed, knowing that we needed help. They also know that we aren't full wolf, and they are okay with that. They will help us fight the demons that plague these halls. I told them my mate was in danger, and they are going to help get him back. I told them that Erica and you were good, so they will not harm her or bother you. But anyone else that isn't my mate will be hurt. They are one of the strongest packs in our country, and one of the biggest. And apparently loyal to me, and therefore Benny. That should be interesting to see how that goes."

"Are you ready to lead a pack?"

"I don't think I have a choice." Grandma nodded and moved, turning to the door.

"Let's go then." Ethan barked at the large group and they all lowered their heads in understanding before he turned back to Grandma and nodded.

Slowly, the trio and their wolf army entered the room.

…

Kinda short I know, but I thought this was a good place to end, don't you?

But hey, what do I know…

Anyways, thanks for reading!

See ya'll next time.
