Chapter 7 This Means War
Danny POV
"Well I guess that whatever you need has something to do with them isn't that right Hale." I looked at Enis his anger issues had gotten a lot worse since the last time that I saw him, I turned to see Chris's his face was red with outrage but could he really blame him, his father killed one of Enis betas one of his sons. I shook my head sadly at the thought and looked up to see that Deucalion was eyeing my wife the way that you would eye a piece of meat or a woman in a bar you were trying to take home. I sinffed the air and knew that Derek, Erica and Laura were at my back. "Where is the rest of your pack we know Peter turned some boy and your other daughter where is she how do you expect us to trust you with this sensitive matter if you don't trust your own pack." I turned to look at Kali she was snarling and I knew that it had something to do with Luca the damn boy couldn't keep it in his pants. Her eyes glowed red in a challenge but Luca didn't take it and Deucalion was eyeing me like I was the one that had to explain my motives and not the other way around. I let out a growl that shook the trees and cause the wind to pick up and they all settled down. I turn to the Argents and sneered there they stood in there all black their weapons hidden in the sleeves or on their backs they were despicable and you could never trust them all they do is kill. Both the inocent and the guilty pay for their mistakes and hatred of the Agents. Chris looked at me and I knew that hatred burn bright in my eyes when he looked down at the grass. I sighed and looked up towards the sky for a moment laying my eyes on the crescent moon before turning to looked a the other alphas. "There is a threat that our emissary thought that all the alphas under the Hales charge would be needed to deal with. As well as the hunters, there is a pack of monster not wolves or a nest of vampires. Something far worse a alpha wolf, a witch, a wendigo, a siren and a dragon. There could be so much more for all we know. They are coming for us for all of us and if they keep killing like they are right now the hunters not just the Argents but all hunter families will kill us."
I looked at the shock faces of the alphas their packs were in the forest I could sense them but they didn't bother to show themselves I have no clue why they would hide them but I am sure that it had something to do with the Argents and the sudden call. "So then where are the other two betas dead perhaps." I sneered at the harsh tone of Enis and looked at him for a moment letting my eyes glow and my fangs appeared. "Don't forget who you talk to boy I have been leading Beacon County since I was 17 and don't think that I won't cut one pack down to size to prove a point. Respect is everything." I felt my claws biting into my skin in a closed fist and it took everything I had not to kill the insolent whelp. Enis looked at me for a moment before averting his eyes "Yes I am sorry about that,aren't we missing two alphas from your brothers pack." I look at him cautiously and sighed before turning to look at Kate the good for nothing whore and a coward what did my son see in her. "My brother is dead his twin sons took over but they are indisposed at the moment they will be here in the morning. As for my daughter and the other beta. There was a fight at the movieplex between a witch and two of my kids they had back but the back up being the Argent women over there ran away and thus my daughter is lay dying in a bed. As for the other beta I thought it best not to have him here at the moment it would only complicate matters. Now back to the pressing matter at hand we have no clue how many creatures are in this pack or what their full abilities are I only know that they need to be put to a stop and they are extremely powerful. But a large presence of wolves will tip them. So each of you will pick three wolves to be by your side and send the rest home." I heard hushed whispers between the three alphas and this flare of defaince coming off of them like they thought my judgement was wrong.
Deucalion stepped up and looked at me and then at the Argents and sighed "I'm sorry old freind but I won't help you with the Argents at your side. They hunt us for sport and for what because of some stupid beast that killed their family members years ago. I'm sorry but there no way that I can follow you. You fail our people by even asking me you're not fit to lead." I laughed out harshly and heard the growling from behind me and I saw the scared looks both the Argents and the other alphas were giving me and Deucalion. "Then come take it" I snarled at him and stood forward I could feel my pack, my family at my back ready to fight but if this turned ugly there wouldn't be much that they could do not when there are three packs waiting for orders in the forest. In my forest and they have the nerve to do this to challenge my authority. I turned to Ducalion and felt my claws extended and my fangs growing "Well come on then take it my pack and my position if you are wolf enough." I looked at him and he sighed and half shift only the claws, eyes and the fangs. He charged me throwing a fist that I easily caught. I kicked his feet out from under him with a well placed leg sweep, he dropped to the ground dust coming up from the ground covering him in it. I crouched over him grabbing him by his neck and let my claws sink deep until blood started to pool in his mouth. I could see the life leaving his eyes as I slammed him into the ground when I heard a violent snap and I lifted him once more before slamming him into the ground where he once stood and I heard the sound of bone breaking it had this sickning crunch that I didn't mind when it came from those who I wanted to see dead. I walked back to my pack and looked at the three alphas and sighed "Anyone else have a problem?"
It was a real question but nobody stepped up and I could see this disgusted look in the eyes of the hunters. But fuck it and fuck them they were the only reason that happened if it weren't for their weakness and hatred I wouldn't have had to done that. "Alright then you will pick three betas and be here in the morning to go over to the battle plan. Is that understood or do you need further clarification." I rolled my shoulders and dropped my jacket off of my back I was getting tired of their shit and would be more than happy to kill them all at this point. But of course they all shook their heads hurriedly and blurred out of sight and I sighed and felt a hand on my shoulder and turned it see my wife in all of her beauty she was breath taking but I am sure that she had something to say about this. "That wasn't wise." I rolled my eyes did I know my wife of did I know my wife. I kissed her on the check and turn to the Argents "Yes well that wouldn't have been necessary if it weren't for the cowards. I doubt the other wolves would want back up that is to afraid to fight. Tell me Argent was this your plan all along to kill each of my children one by one. To kill my pack by bringing this new threat here. Really I do want to know." I walked closer to Chris and I could feel Luca and Dean at my back as their growls started to build in their throat. Chris was getting jittery I saw that his left eyebrow was twitching and I could smell anxiety coming off of him in waves. So much so that it was sickening. His blue eyes were begging for help or was it more like pleading but what I really saw was the gears in his mind turning, trying to find a way out of the mess that his daughter and sister created. "Daniel, Danny come on you know that I would never do something like that not when people are in danger. My kid and sister made a mistake yeah but it wont happen again you can understand that can't you." I felt my rage boiling in the pit of my stomach what the hell did that even mean what was there for me to understand?
"All I know is that my son can barely stand dew to the pounding that wich gave him and my daughter is laying in a bed trying to fight off death. So you tell me what the hell there is for me to understand. That while your daughter who is the same age as mine but with more blood on her hands get to live because of her cowardice .But my daughter was fighting for a species that wants her dead and she is now actually dying." I could feel my wolf tearing at my mental restraints I put in place. Clawing his way to the surface and I doubt that I even want to hold him back. All I see is red and I want him to pay, the whole family should pay for their actions. "It wasn't good enough for your family, first you kill my brother and sister in law and orphan their kids who now at the age of 18 have to run a pack are you out of your mind. But now you want my kids too. What is wrong with you people we never kill humans yet you insist that we are monsters. Let me make this clear Argent the next time that you and your hunters leave my pack my family high and dry in the middle of a fight I will kill all of you. Now you have 10 minutes to get off of my land." I shoved Chirs to the ground and gave both the women in his family a cautious glare before walking back towards the house but stopped by the door. Derek was leaning against it for support while the rest of the pack was walking off into the woods no doubt to see their friend in the other packs. I turned back in time to see them shift and run off "Come along Der we need to get you in bed you shouldn't even be standing." He rolled his eyes at me but followed me into the house and collapsed on the couch looking at the infirmary. His thoughts were with Cora I could tell "Its not on you what happen to her you know that don't you?" I looked at Derek and he huffed out some air before slowly closing his eyes and sitting there for a moment. "I don't believe that and neither do you or the rest of the pack I see the way that they look at me the mixture of pity and anger for what happened. She might die becasue of my weakness and I don't think that i can live with that fact."
I sighed and pulled him into a hug I could feel his arms wrapping around me and his grip was tight, almost like he was trying to stop me from leaving. "No one thinks that and I don't know if you know but a fact is something that is true and backed by evdenice. There is no proof that you are weak you bested the wich when you needed to and you brought them both back safe. If Stiles would have died there would have been a lot more trouble for us the Argents wouldn't have taken responbilty and then your entire family would have died you did good now rest you need it." I heared his breathing slow and so did his heart beat to a slow crawl and for a moment I felt panic rising into my throat till I realize that he was just sleeping. I lifted Derek into my arms and walked up the stairs to his room laying him down and sliding the door close before noticing that there was a light coming from Lunas room. She live across the hall from Derek and Erica so that if she ever needed them they were right there .But it's 12 in the morning she should be asleep. I slowly crept to the door and open it to find that Luna's bedside lamp was on illuminating the whole room the only problem was that it wasn't plugged in. "Luna where are you." I whispered into the room but I didn't get a response and i didn't hear her heartbeat either let alone smell her. I walked over to the closet and opened the door and open up the light blue trunk that held all of her toys but she wasn't hiding in there either. I sighed and ran into Derek's room but she wasn't in there ethier I felt my heart pounding and I could feel the rise of panic. Where the hell could she be and what was up with that lamp.
Then I felt it a wicked rush of air as something whisper my name "Danny. Where is she danny? Where is the little puppy?" I heard a voice calling me out in the darkness I slipped down the stairs and walked into the infermary. Stiles and Scott lifted there heads when they heard me creeping into the room. "Stiles do you know where Luna is?" I looked at Stiles and he seemed more alert and his golden eyes started to fill with panic. "No I haven't seen her since she came in here with Erica to get Der." I nodded my head and sighed and tried to bring my heart beat down. "Stiles locked the door and don't let anyone but me in here the rest of the pack is in the forest but there is someone in here and Luna is missing." Stiles and Scott both stood up Scott's curly brown hair covered his eyes but I didn't need to see his eyes to know that they were full of worry. But was it for Luna or for my daugher. "No I'm coming with you Scott can stay here with Cora. I wouldn't be any use let me help you try and find Luna she could just be hiding and waiting for when it is safe." I nodded my head and ran out of the room with him catching up to me. I crept through the house checking every door and there was nothing and no one here. I smelled for her but the only heart beats or scent that I caught was me,stiles, scott, and Derek. I could count Cora but her heart beat is so weak Id have to be in the room to even hear it. "This isn't good Derek and Erica are going to freak, I'm freaking something was in here and I didn't even sense it." I looked towards the back door that was open but it was closed when me and Derek came in here. "I have to head to the forest, wake Derek up and tell him what is going on I have to alert the others." I looked at Stiles and he simply nodded his head as I ran off towards the forest. I looked back to see that the light in Derek's room was turned on and I heard a furious howl that shook the very ground I was walking on. Cracks formed and the ground slipt and fell apart. This so wasn't going to be good.
