The Enemy of My Enemy

A/N: My game is going pretty well. C: Though, my younger sister keeps catching up to where I am. XD Anyway, I'm not sure how many more chapters there will be. X3

Anyway, onto the chapter!

Ulrich frowned as William tried and failed at trying to find more Hunters. It was difficult without any way for them to transform.

"William! One hour till sunset!" Ulrich yelled from the other side of the gym where he was making sure that no students were coming in or out.

"Get Leona in here so that you, Emilie, and Herve can get all the students rounded up to their dorms!" William yelled back as he watched different students try to hit a punching bag.

Ulrich left and went to find Leona while telling kids to get in their dorms and that he'd come back to check that they'd listened.

"Don't worry, Ulrich. Yumi came in a while ago and told me that the Hunters agreed to help us!" Leona exclaimed as she ran up to him.

"Did I look that upset?" he asked sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.

She nodded. "I know that you want to fight, but you're needed in here. What you're going to be doing is just as important."

"Yeah. I'm glad that I'm still able to move, though. We knocked down a lot of them last night… Anyway, William needs you in the gym to take my place so that I can get them rounded up and so that you're close for when the sun sets. Emilie and Herve will probably end up heading that way soon, too."

"Thanks Ulrich," she said smiling. "Ulrich, I'm really sorry… Earlier this week I was following you around and trying to get you to like me because my parents and your dad wanted me to be with you… I see the way you look at Yumi all the time and hope that that works out for you." She walked off before he could reply.

He continued to patrol through the halls and warning students to get back to their rooms until he got to where Milly and Tamiya were.

"Ulrich! The students have a right to know what's going on! There are reports that there were wolves outside last night. Is this true?" Milly asked walking over to him excitedly as Tamiya followed with her camera.

"All I'm going to tell you is that there are dangerous things outside that people are trying to protect everyone from. The staff knows about what's going on and is doing their best to protect the students of Kadic Academy. Can I entrust you two to help me with something?" Ulrich asked as he looked behind him and saw Sissi trying to leave her room.

"Sure!" Milly exclaimed excitedly.

"Go to the gym and tell Leona to tell William that it's almost time," he said as he walked backwards toward Sissi.

"Hi Ulrich," she said softly.

Ulrich sighed, he could tell she was afraid, and said, "What's the matter?"

"People were telling me that wolves were outside last night and that they're going to be back tonight. No one knows what's going on and Daddy won't tell me anything… I tried to find you and your friends, Herve and Nicolas, and anyone else that I could find last night and I couldn't… Milly told me that she'd gotten outside last night and was forced back inside later, but caught some of the fighting on camera. They all looked really crazy and beat up and," she stopped as she looked up and down Ulrich's arms, spotting the scratches and bruises. "How'd you get those?"

Ulrich looked up at the ceiling and frowned. He wasn't sure how to explain his multiple wounds. He thought for a moment and then replied, "I snuck outside last night, too. I got out earlier than you, probably, and that's why you didn't see me."

-William-

Leona and William had finally gotten all of the kids back in their rooms and, with Jim's help, locked in and were headed outside.

"William!" Jeremie called to him running over with a sword in its sheath at his waist. "Yumi, me, and the other Hunters are waiting on the outside for all the fighting to start. They said that we'd try to handle things better than we did last night. Odd and Aelita are going to be walking around the outside of the school, also, to try and make sure that no students get outside. Some Hunters will be coming in and out of the school's barrier to make sure that you guys are stuck in a bad situation."

William nodded and frowned toward where the adults were lying in wait. "Jeremie, you do understand that some of us won't make it out alive, right?"

"Yeah, I know. I also know that I have to help protect the school from all those werewolves. The Hunters, knowing that I am one, would probably shun me for the rest of my life and I'd end up living with other people because my dad really takes this stuff to heart," he replied.

"I'm glad that you're ready to help us fight… Tell the Hunters thanks for the support, even if they're going to turn on us as soon as we defeat these guys…"

Jeremie nodded and was off.

"William, I think that now we might have a chance at winning without losing our numbers…" Leona whispered to him as the sun began to set and Emilie and Herve came up behind the two.
"Yeah, that is, if the Hunters keep to their end of this bargain and don't end up attacking us…" Emilie said as she sat down on the ground.

Herve followed suit and said, "I'm just hoping that we can win and that they give up afterwards… If not, we're going to be in for a lot of trouble…"

Leona nodded and looked back at him. "Don't worry, Herve, Emilie and I will protect you guys this time."

"Remember, if you need my help just howl. If you think we need to call Ulrich here then howl twice. I told him that and he'll be listening for us so be careful you don't howl unneeded."

They all nodded as the sun fell below the horizon and the people began to transform into wolves.

A/N: So more explanations, but next chapter will continue the battle, I promise. Lol. So, read and review! X3
