Chapter 10: The Rescue
Axel's POV
Going in front of the crowd of wolves again wasn't as unnerving as it was the first time but it was still pretty scary. I was glad though that Leon and Cloud were both standing on each side of me.
"Thank you all for coming to help me tonight this means a lot. Saix will be showing us the way tonight since he was the one who was previously in Sephiroth's Pack before ours. Please give him your undivided attention." I stated as Saix came to the front Xemnas in tow behind him.
I knew as the new Alpha I should probably be listening to what Saix was saying but I was more focused on my Mate. His emotions were so high, it couldn't be good for the babies. He was more than terrified and the emotions were starting to take their toll on me as well.
I could only imagine how the babies were taking it. A few minutes later I was being led back to the front of the Pack.
"Are we all ready then?" I asked.
Nodding everyone started to strip and shift into their wolf counterpart.
"Wait! Just a minute! Before you leave!" I hadn't heard the door open but in strolled Vexen carrying what looked like a large spray bottle. Coming to the front of the Pack all eyes locked on me first and then straight to Vexen.
"Um... yes well after Roxas left the apartment to join the Pack I got curious and went inside. I found this spray bottle that masked his scent and I've been working on what was inside it that was able to mask it so well! Well I've finally figured it out you see what he's been using..."
"Vexen get on with it! Why are you telling us this now?" I asked frustrated.
"Oh yes sorry. What I'm trying to say is I've duplicated exactly what he was using! Spray this on you before you leave and they won't even be able to smell the wolf side of you. They'll just smell the human part." He cried excitedly.
Cocking their heads to the side some of the wolves looked to the rest of the Pack that was still human for an answer. Shrugging everyone looked to me.
"Ok and that means...?" I started.
Sighing he shook his head, "It means that they won't know its you coming. What we smell in a Shifter is the wolf side. If you take that part away all your smelling is a human which has a different scent than your wolf side. They don't know what your human side smells like so they'll be caught completely off guard! Now do you get it?" Vexen asked.
I knew there was a reason we kept the mad scientist around!
"Vexen you're a genius! Everyone before you leave I want you to make sure you get sprayed! If they can't smell us coming then the better oh and make sure you're in pairs. I don't want to lose anyone tonight!" I called. Making a small line Vexen sprayed all of the wolves before they headed outside. We made sure everyone had been sprayed before we left.
Saix and Xemnas took the lead as they were showing us the way. Cloud and Leon flanked my sides as we started off. The way was winding and at one point became very treacherous. I knew we were close when Saix started shaking and slowing down. Tucking his tail between his legs he whimpered ears flat against his head.
Xemnas stopped beside his Mate and licked his cheek in affection. Going behind him he nudged his Mate forward. Taking a few tentative steps forward he stopped again before plopping back down on the ground. I didn't blame Saix and had I known where we were going I would have never asked.
Once again Xemnas went behind him and nudged him forward. Whimpering he would take a few steps forward again before plopping back down. This went on for a long while before we finally made it there.
There were two wolves guarding the inside. They looked like teenagers and I felt bad but I snapped their necks killing them instantly. We couldn't risk anyone going back inside alerting the Pack that we were here.
Slinking inside the first sounds that greeted our ears was a woman screaming. Once we got past the two guards it was easy the door had been cracked open so that the two wolves could get back inside. We just had to nose our way in and that was about it.
Hackles raised we stopped and listened. Sniffing the air I tried to sort out the scents to see how many wolves we were dealing with. So far in the room I counted at least five. Turning to my Pack they were all waiting for my orders. I saw that Saix and Xemnas were still with the Pack although Saix's ears were pinned against his head.
I continued staring at Saix until he met my gaze. With a small nod I turned around and charged straight into the room.
Roxas POV
I hadn't been there long probably about two hours when the door opened. A girl with red hair and indigo eyes tentatively came in.
"Hi. Master said to come get you." She whispered heels clacking as she stepped in and closed the door behind her. She was wearing a black halter top and a mini skirt that barely covered anything. Her shoes were black leather and came to her knees and were about four inches tall.
"Master? You mean Sephiroth?" I cried. "He's a fucking bastard that kidnapped me! I'm pregnant and Mated and I have a son... Sora... that's my son he got hurt trying to help me." Tears were pooling in my eyes and started dripping down to land on my hands.
"My name is Kairi what's your name?" She asked walking over and sitting on the bed beside me.
"Roxas." I whispered.
"I was kidnapped by Sephiroth when I was fifteen. He forced himself on me and we were Mated. I was his first "prize". There were twelve more after me and your number thirteen. He took us all away from our families... some of us even had Mates and he just killed them all. Is your Mate coming for you?" She asked.
"Yes... He's coming for me." I knew he would even as I said it. I could feel his emotions swirling around inside me and the largest one was determination.
"He'll die. Sephiroth enjoys playing dirty. I've seen many Mates try and save us but they were all killed." Kairi responded matter of factly. "We have to go Master will get angry if we're late." Reaching over with a key she unlocked my wrists and grabbed the leash.
Pulling me into a hug she slipped a small knife in my hand. "Please kill him."
There were tears in her eyes and she quickly wiped those away as she led me down the hall but not before offering me a flimsy white shirt. Quickly I put it on and she led me down the long winding hallway until we reached what looked like a living room. There were at least eight or nine women milling around all of them were scantily dressed and wearing a collar and leash.
Men were roaming the house growling their approval and holding the women tightly. Just one look in their eyes and you could see the lack of emotion. They were so used to the treatment that it didn't bother them anymore. It was like they were dead inside.
As soon as Kairi led me into the room the men stopped and all eyes were on me. I was fresh meat to them.
"Hey cutie lets play." One of them called.
"Look at that sexy ass, can't wait to bury my cock in there." Another one sneered. As we walked a few of the wolves would reach out and slap my ass. Growling at them only made them laugh.
"Back off boys he's mine. Once I'm done breaking him in you can all play with him." Sephiroth laughed sauntering over and tugging the leash so that I wobbled and fell. "Now strip."
"Bite me!" I growled standing up and tugging the shirt down.
Some of the men laughed while Sephiroth just turned red in the face. "Looks like you've got a fighter." One of them jeered.
"Roxy we wouldn't want anything to happen to those parasites you're carrying now would we?" Sephiroth cooed. Turning around he walked over to a red velvet love seat and sat down patting his lap.
Narrowing my eyes I took a step back. "I said bite me."
"Xaldin hand me the boy." Sephiroth called. A strong pair of arms wrapped around my waist and picked me up. Kicking did no good because someone else came along to help and grabbed my legs.
They maneuvered their way over until they forced me in Sephiroth's lap. I didn't have time to react because Sephiroth's slimy lips were on mine. His tongue was quick to press past my defenses. I tried squirming away but his arms wrapped around my waist and brought me closer. I didn't want this! When he was finally done kissing me he pulled back a smirk on his face.
The small knife in my hand was biting into my skin and I knew this was my chance. As soon as I pulled it back someone was on me lightning fast bending my wrist back until the knife clattered to the ground.
I screamed in agony as they continued to bend my wrist back even after I had dropped the knife. "Roxas! I'm surprised at you!" Sephiroth cried in mock shock. "You know what I told you right? That if you didn't listen to me I'd get rid of those parasites. It looks like it can't be helped, Xaldin you know where to take him don't you?"
Grunting a tall man with black dreadlocks made his way over. Hauling me up he started to carry me away but was stopped when Kairi blocked his path.
"Step away little girl." He growled.
"No! Sephiroth please! This was my fault! I was the one who started it! I gave him the knife and told him to kill you! Please don't hurt his babies! I was the one who did this..." She begged dropping on her knees in front of Sephiroth.
Thankfully Xaldin had turned me around so that I could see what was going on. Plus I think he was pretty curious to.
"Please don't punish him! Punish me." She whispered lowering her head.
She was submitting to him? Why? Why was she submitting? This wasn't her Mate he was a fraud!
Smiling he leaned down to lift her chin up. "Oh I'm going to punish you. But I'm punishing him as well. He acted on your orders to kill me so he's just as much at fault. Xaldin take him away. Kairi my dear come with me I'll show you what happens when you disobey me." He said grabbing Kairi's arm and dragging her away.
With Xaldin not paying attention I made an attempt to jump out of his arms but he easily caught me.
"Let me go you bastard!" I screamed trying to kick and punch him. He avoided every attack easily before managing to knock me out.
When I woke up next I was strapped to a gurney. I couldn't even move my arms or legs and there was a small silver table gleaming with medical equipment and needles. Looking around I saw a tuft of blond hair peeking out of a black beanie. Turning around I saw it was a male. Grinning at me he walked over holding a sharp scalpel in his hand.
After a long silence I heard screaming. Kairi... what was that bastard doing to her? Trying to move was impossible! I had to lay there and listen as she screamed out in agony. All was quiet except for the screaming, I was startled back to reality when another voice started speaking. It was the blond man with the black beanie.
"Sephiroth said I'm supposed to get rid of some parasites that are inhabiting your body. Don't worry this won't hurt...to bad." He laughed crossing the room until he was standing in front of me.
The first slice was on my stomach and I screamed. "Please don't do this! Please!" I was hysterical but he sliced my stomach again. Tears were pouring down my eyes and I was screaming as loud as I could praying for him to stop. My poor babies they needed me!
"I'll do anything just stop please!" I whimpered.
Cocking his head to the side he thought about this for a moment before making another slice. "He told me you might start begging. I was told not to listen." He said wagging the scalpel in front of my face like I was a naughty child.
Another scream was ripped from me as he started digging deeper into my stomach. Heavy breathing filled the silent room as the blond man watched fascinated as the blood flowed out of my body. Something hard hit the door just then breaking it open as a blue colored wolf crashed into the room.
Blondie's eyes were wide as he stared down at the snarling wolf. This wasn't supposed to happen. Shifting into a blond wolf he attempted to leave but the blue wolf tackled him and snapped his neck. Falling dead I watched as he shifted back to a man, one I thought I recognized.
"Roxas, are you ok?" He asked.
Whimpering I tried backing up but the chains rattled in protest. Quietly he went to work unlocking the chains and when he was done I punched him in the face. He howled in pain as I jumped off the gurney and ran. Grabbing my stomach I tried to staunch the flow of blood but it just slipped through my fingers. Panicking I shifted into a wolf and raced down the hall before the blue haired male could catch me.
Vision blurred I somehow made it outside before collapsing on the ground. A few wolves filed out but none of them looked like Axel so when they came close to me I was able to stand up and growl at them. Ears down they stalked closer and I snarled backing up and tucking my tail between my legs.
One of the wolves was a pure silver color with gold eyes. I bit him on the leg and he yelped growling at me but backed up. Blood was steadily dripping from my stomach and it was getting hard to see. Whining I prayed for Axel to come save me.
Just as I was about to pass out I heard a familiar howl. The wolves that had surrounded me answered the call and I curled up on the ground waiting. Trotting out of the old house was my wolf. The wolves parted when they saw him and he raced over as soon as our eyes met.
Axel was the first to change back pulling me into his arms. Whispering sweet nothings I was able to shift back and wrap my arms around his neck. No words were said as he picked me up and carried me away from the Pack and back into the house.
"He's dead Roxas. I killed him and it felt so fucking good!" Axel whispered.
"He tried killing our babies Axel. He called them parasites." I whimpered burying my face in his neck.
Wrapping his arms tightly around my waist he pulled me close. "They're coming Roxas help is coming. Sephiroth will never bother you again I promise you this my love."
