Xion could only watch from the shadows as Roxas, a hunter and the princess all came back from the island just a few minutes out to sea. It wasn't a long wait but they came back with the werewolf that killed Axel. The only other vampire that had been allowed to come with her. Yet she didn't feel so bad. The redhead was stuck in one loop. A loop where he had been determined to get that blond stink bug back at his side. She did admire his ideals and on some level understood that Roxas had done something for Axel that many thralls could not. On a very shameful level to her, she saw a tweak of human obsession. A means to have proof one had or was indeed alive. In the end, that obsession got him killed.

Chapter 21

She keeps watching from her hiding spot. Watching and gathering information on she should approach the princess once again. The last time was a disaster. With one grab, she managed to make the redhead scream in terror then double over while blood and some clear fluid flowed her lower regions. In a panic, Xion backed away fast and ran off before she could be spotted. Now, here she was once again. Watching from the side lines, waiting for the moment to get the princess alone once again. When they began to speak, her mind focused on that. She could learn habits, plans and then from there, see when she could strike. What had her surprised is the sight of a baby in that blond stink bug's arms. He left with it in a basket and kept checking on it as the boat had been taken off the island. So where was it?

"Can I ask why I can't look in the basket now?" The brunet wolf asks, getting her attention back to the moment at hand. "You have me worried."

"It's something good." The princess says, keeping his eyes on her. "I promise. I wouldn't be here without reason."

"You should resting. After...Kairi, you suffered the first night of this double full moon." The wolf reminds her. "I was told about what he did and how Lucian was brought into this world. How are you even...standing at this moment?"

"I was cleared to leave by Aerith. So long as I am careful, my stitches will heal. It will leave a scar but it can be a reminder. One that allows me to be proud that I lived to watch the boy I helped make grow up." the princess gave him a smile then moves when the blond was behind her.

She sees the wolf go from worried to look a parent made when first seeing their child. It was clear the princess and the wolf made the child. News she could have to tell her master when she got the chance. She would also have to inform him of the wound inflicted upon the royal family member. Xion often heard him tell Marluxia that in order to secure the throne, the vampire would have impregnate the woman. If the baby had come from a wolf and given birth during a full moon though. All plans related to that went out the window instantly. There would be no way to secure the throne. A set back they could handle, unless she decided to take the princess out.

Xion saw no point in retrieving the now corrupt human. Not only did she have a wolf child but now, she would no longer be able a normal child. In her eyes, this princess didn't deserve to be even brought back home to the royal family. They needed her for one reason and if done right, they could have this princess give up the throne. It could be given to the vampires then. Her master would be in control and she could remain in the title of princess. Having full claim as the true heir to the kingdom.

She keeps watching and listening to the four in front of her.

"Demyx and Zexion have been guarding me alongside Riku." The princess says, touching the hunter's shoulder. "They said they would continue until I am strong again."

The wolf is smiling at his child. Holding the baby in his arms while talking to the three. They were planning to head back to the alpha female's house. From there, they would keep to that location for the next few days. The princess would be held up in that one location for the next few days. Xion would have to wait for her to be told she could leave without being escorted. Since, none of them really had the privileges a leader would. The vampire would have to wait it out and watch for that moment to come. She then hears a tidbit she didn't know how her master would take.

"I hear you managed to learn most of the basics last night." The hunter says at the stink bug.

"Yeah, I am going to be learning the rest tonight and then relearn them while learning more information about shortcuts." The blond proudly says, crossing his arms. "I am actually gonna be useful and not just his mate."

She stares at the stink bug. He...was a mate to the wolf. The wolf that the princess had a baby with?! Xion sees them slowly walk away. She follows. Noting a limp in the wolfs stride. Full moons were good for them. She was learning a lot already but texting this all wouldn't help her out. The only way she could get a chance to inform her master is when they would go quiet. Hopefully on the walk to this main base, she could inform her master of what she learned then continue to gather more information, even after they entered the premises of the alpha's house.

The walk was quiet. So while tailing the, Xion called up her master. He answered with a normal volume while she spoke in a whisper.

"Master, I have lots to inform you off. Some good news but most of it is bad news." She whispers, following as quietly as possible. "Axel has been killed by a werewolf. The very stink bug blond he lost has come here to this island and is the mate and healer in training in fact to his wolf. He is part of the wolf clan, as is Demyx and Zexion."

"Traitorous scumbags."Xemnas mutters. "What else have you learned? What of the princess?"

"I have found her sir. She was pregnant with that stink bug's mate's child. She has given birth to a prince to be, during a full moon. I am sorry master but from what I gathered. She will no longer be able to bear children."

"A setback we can handle once she is safely back home and under our control. What else?"

"Nothing new. The princess will be under heavy guard until she has fully recovered. When she is able to leave without stressing the wound and is alone, I plan to try and grab her once again."

"Listen carefully Xion. My next orders will be absolute." Xemnas says.

"Yes master, what are your orders?"

"You will continue to monitor the princess. I will be sending another vampire to aid you. When they arrive, I want you to take her place there. We can't let them know she is gone. You will infiltrate that pack. Learn all you can, who their leader is and the means of us taking over as their masters." Xemnas orders. "Larxene and Vanitas will be joining you in a day. Watch them, study the princess in every manner she conducts herself now. Is that clear?"

"Yes master. I shall learn who she is now and when she is Larxene's hands, take her place."

"Good, be ready to make a move when Larxene arrives." He hung up.

Xion ends the call and watches as the four enter a large, two bedroom house. Demyx and Zexion are outside with two other wolves on the porch. Guarding it for any intruders. Wolves could pick up a vampire's scent. Even if she took Kairi's place, she would have to find a way to fool those around her. The ones who aren't wolves and make it look as if the pack can be deceitful. For the time being, she would bide her time. Observe the new mannerisms of the princess, her voice and habits. Then take her place here until her time came to leave and resume her rightful place as the double. At least, for a little while until an "accident" would befall the real princess. With no choice, they would then need her to take her place once more; forever. The vampire smirks and keeps watch.
