Chapter 38.
(Scott POV)
Jana and I were heading for School. As I pulled Jana Next to me as we headed in to find Rhyd looking at a file.
"Revising?" Jana said.
"No I don't understand any of this," Rhyd said. "It's all money here, there, off shore bank accounts, What I don't understand is that if he is all this, How come I found him scrabbling about in a bin? You would think if he was that smart, he would have had some money closer to home, Who are you Dad? You know what Cerberus is,"
"3 Headed wolf," I said.
"Yea a Wolf with 3 heads, maybe that's him Three different people in one wolf," Rhyd said.
"I won't go to Segolia if you don't want me to," Jana said.
"Check it out, But be careful, Jana, Something isn't right about that place," I said.
"When I know the Truth, When I know for sure," Rhyd said. "I'll think about it,"

After School I managed to get Jana before she left.
"Remember Be careful," I said.
"I will," Jana said.
"Hey, I love you," I said.
"Love you too, Scott," Jana said As I kissed her as she went and got into the Car. As I head home.
2 Hours later, Tom, Shan, Rhyd and Jana was at mine and Tom brought something.
"What is that?" I said.
"It's similar to the one Becca used on Alex," Shan said.
"So it's a kind of Hyprospray," I said.
"But here's the best part, right, So the Sweeny then asked the fella if he knows anything about Cerberus," Tom said.
"That's what they're after my dad for," Tom said.
"Look are you sure that's what you heard," Shan said.
"100%," Tom said.
"So my dad wasn't working alone," Rhyd said.
"Or as Scott said, Something else is going on," Tom said.
"Like what," Jana said.
"Well she didn't want anyone to know about this prisoner, Right," Tom said.
"Yea," I said.
"Why would she do that if she had nothing to hide?" Tom said.
"Whatever you saw Victoria do might not be as bad as it looks," Jana said.
"Sorry, Jana. But I'm with Tom on this, a Guy being tied up in an empty server room, means that she could be part of Cerberus too," I said.
"Look, we need to talk Alex and Becca," Shan said.
"What if they're involved too," I said.
"There's no way," Shan said.
"Then how do you explain this," Rhyd said.
"Shan, you said it's the same, We can't trust anyone over there, And even if we do trust them the Sweeney might go after them," I said.
"Look, Victoria's head of security She protects Wolfbloods, How do you know this guy wasn't a threat to all of us," Jana said.
"Or you're forgetting what Sweeney tried to do before here on someone else Territory," I said. "She's either Working for whatever this Cerberus is doing or Trying to track it down,"
Then Rhyd left as did Tom.
"I'm going to head," Shan said. Leaving.
"Something really has you bugged hey," Jana said.
"Yeah, But what," I said. "What does that thing really do,"
"You knows," Jana said. "Come on let's get something to eat,"

The Next day at School, Jana and Shan headed over to see Rhyd who was sitting by himself and I headed over too.
"We're sorry," Jana said.
"Yeah," Shan said. "Its just every time something good happens, something else comes along to ruin it,"
"I still don't think you are right about Victoria, But I don't want to fall out over it," Jana said.
"That's why we're a pack," Rhyd said.
"Where's Tom," I said.
"There he is," Rhyd said.
"Right send it," Tom said. As he Passed Liam and shot the ball into the net and then backflipped perfectly.
"Okay Superstar, I'll give you £20 if you can kick this through Jeffries Window," Jimmy said as Tom did it and it went in.
"What the fuck," I said. "Please tell me you 3 saw that,"
"Yes," Jana said.
"Yeah," Rhyd said.
"Yes I saw it," Shan said.
"Good, I thought I was going crazy," I said.
"No you're not, love," Jana said snuggling into me.
As we went in as Shan stopped him.
"What's going on," Shan said.
"Nothing," Shan said.
"Oh, Dirty B.O. Can you smell that," Tom said.
"What can you smell," Rhyd said.
"Well 7 different perfumes, Sweaty socks, Katrina's just bleached her roots, I thought she was a natural blonde," Tom said. "SBD about 15 minutes ago, Mmm Savoury mince for lunch,"
"You took that serum didn't you, Are you totally mad," Shan said.
"It was an accident," Tom said.
"Explain that," Rhyd said.
"Well I was messing around with the sonic screwdriver thing and then it just went off," Tom said. "Look how do you do this It's so hard to be a wolfblood when it feels so good,"
"Tom, We have no idea what's in that serum," Shan said. "You need to get yourself to a hospital,"
"What? And say what, That he's turned into a wolfblood," Jana said.
"Great," Shan said.
"This is so cool," Tom said.
"Tom, you need to learn to control these powers, You don't want to hear what everyone is saying all the time," I said.
"Yeah, Yeah, alright back off I haven't done anything wrong," Tom said. and left.
"Yet," I said.
"Who are you calling," Shan said.
As Rhyd Called Dacia then we went to meet her. As She pulled up.
"We've got a problem," Rhyd said as we told her what was going on.
"Is he ill," Dacia said.
"Not at the moment," Shan said.
"Can't exactly take him to a human doctor," Rhyd said.
"I can't get a wolfblood doctor here without Sweeney finding out," Dacia said.
"So you're not gonna help us," Rhyd said.
"I don't know how, Not in secret, I'm sorry," Dacia said.
"I knew we should have called Alex and Becca," Shan said.
"What do you know about Cerberus Dacia," I said.
"I Gave you the file," Dacia said.
"What, that's it," Rhyd said. "That's all you know,"
"Yes," Dacia said.
"Who gave it to you," Rhyd said.
"Sweeney," Dacia said.
"Do you not get it," Rhyd said. "My Dad obviously found the connection between her and Cerberus, Whatever it is, She goes after him and sets him up and then give you the file to stop me asking questions,"
"I had no reason no to believe her," Dacia said. "even if you're right, I can't just come out and accuse her,"
"Dacia's right, She won't last a minute then, But you're on the inside, We're not," I said. "Or do you like being used and manipulated,"
"Alright, I'll see what I can find out," Dacia said.
"So what do we do about Tom?" Shan said.
"You're more pally with R & D than I am, If you want to call them, Call them," Dacia said.
"We keep an eye on Tom, He has no idea what these powers can make him do," I said.
As Dacia left as Jana, Me, Rhyd and Shan started heading.
"Are you sure you trust her," Shan said.
"Are you sure you trust Whitewood and her boss?" Rhyd said.
"Yes," Shan said.
"Scott's right, We have to, For Tom's sake," Jana said.
"Okay," Rhyd said. "Speak of the Devil," As Tom came over.
"What's Dacia doing here?" Tom said.
"I had to speak to her about my dad," Rhyd said.
"Then why were you asking her about me," Tom said.
"We're worried about you, You need professional help," Shan said. "I'm calling Alex and Becca,"
"Don't stick your nose in my business," Tom said. "There's nothing wrong with me,"
"You don't know that," I said.
"You are not calling them," Tom said.
"What's your problem, No ones likes a green eyed monster," Kara said. "Do they,"
"No problem, Not anymore, he's on his own," Shan said. As Jana, Rhyd and I went after Shan.
As we heading in. As I was next to Jana.
"Hey, Do you want to know something, yeah, I'm glad I took it, Cos I am sick and tired of playing second fiddle to your wolfblood dramas Your desperation to prove yourself, and your inability to cope with modern life," Tom said.
"Tom," I said.
"Don't Tom me, Okay," Tom said.
"Don't try that shit with me, It doesn't work," I said.
"Tom's always the one always picking up the pieces lying for you lot, Being a shoulder to cry on, and if I'm not doing that, I might as well be invisible," Tom said. "Not any more," Then Tom walked off.
As we headed out.
"We got to do something," Shan said.
"Shan right, there," Rhyd said.
"Agreed," I said.
"We need to find a way to get that out of him," Jana said.
"And we have no idea what else that could do to him," I said.
"We meet up in the morning and find out what to do," Rhyd said.
"Agreed," Shan said.
"See ya," I said as Shan and Rhyd Headed. As Jana and I headed back to ours.
