Chapter 39.
(Scott POV)
Jana and I woke up the next morning and and got ready for school as we got some breakfast. But we didn't see Ceri. Must not be up yet.
Once we had some Breakfast. We headed for school.
"What are we going to do about Tom," Jana said.
"I don't know, But right now. We have no idea what is going on," I said.
"Let's hope Shannon has something," Jana said.
"Until then we keep an eye on Tom. Right now It the wolf in him doing everything. Not Tom," I said.
As We got there and Meet up with Shan and Rhyd. As we headed out to talk more since the bell hasn't rang yet. But that was when we saw what Tom was doing.
"Just when we thought it couldn't get any worse," Shan said. "Can't we do something,"
"Like what," Rhyd said.
"Get Down, Right now," Jeffries said.
"Did you say something, Sir," Tom said.
"Down," Jeffries said.
"I'm sorry I am not quite getting that," Tom said.
"Shut up, Your not helping," Shan said.
"One last time, Down," Jeffries said.
"Are you going soft, sir," James said. "If that was me, you'd've totally given me detention by now,"
"Good idea," Jeffries said. "Detention Tonight, You're in with him,"
"What?" James said.
"One more second and it will be 2 detentions, Fine 2 Detentions, 3 Detentions, 4 Detentions," Jeffries said as he finally got down. "What is this, The Cult of Tom Okanawe?"
"Yeah," James said.
"Go Tom, Go Tom, Go Tom," They said.
"Total Ledge," Liam said.
"I'll be there, right there in detention with you, mate," James said. "It's not a punishment, It's an honour,"
"You're lucky you don't kill yourself, you idiot," Shan said.
"You know what your problem's always been don't you Tom, Sour face over there," James said.
"Did I say office, Yes," Jeffries said.
After we got in.
"Ah you 4, What's going on with the Jackass wannabe?" Jeffries said. "Look if there's something wrong a real friend would tell somebody, A real friend wouldn't think they were protecting him by keeping quiet, Fine," Then he walked in.
"He's right isn't he?" Rhyd said.
"We should have called Whitewood straight away, She would know what was in that serum," Jana said.
"Tom doesn't want our help," Shan said. "He's made that perfectly clear,"
"No, That's not the real Tom, That's the Wolf inside him. The Tom we know is somewhere underneath," I said.
"Really, So when you guys wolf out once a month that's not the real you?" Shan said.
"Our wolves are part of us, It's not part of Tom," I said.
"I don't think it's going to go away by itself," Rhyd said.
"Call Whitewood tell her to get here as quickly as she can, We need to end this now," I said.
As Rhyd and I went into the Toilets where we found Tom and only him.
"Earth to Tom," Rhyd said.
"Tom," I said.
"You're loud and clear, Everything is loud and clear," Tom said.
"Yeah, I get it, Strong is good, But what you're not getting is knowing what to do with it," Rhyd said.
"I knew Great power, Great responsibility," Tom said.
"Great Big ego," I said. "We know, We've been there, All it does is upset the ones who care about you,"
"You hate this don't you," Tom said.
"This isn't about me," Rhyd said.
"Cos you always have to be the special one," Tom said.
"That's ridiculous," I said.
"I'm not like you," Tom said. "I'm better than you, I can do anything you can, Full moon, Dark Moon Anytime, I'm more than a Wolfblood,"
"At least we control it, It doesn't control us," I said
As Tom Walked out.
"He not getting it," Rhyd said.
"No he isn't, We need to get that thing out of him," I said.
As we headed out.
"What did Whitewood say," Rhyd said.
"It went to Voice mail," Shan said.
"Great, So nothing Whitewood or Dacia," I said "Screw it, I'm Going down there,"
"What, To Segolia," Shan said.
"I'm sick of sneaking around like we're in the wrong," Rhyd said. "Sweeney's behind all of this She'll know what's in that serum,"
"Oh so you're just gonna walk in there and ask her what's going on?" Jana said.
"Yup," Rhyd said.
"Well that's Bonkers, Look even if you are right about her," Shan said.
"She hauled off some guy who just happened to be carrying around some instant Wolfblood juice, if that doesn't convince you," Rhyd said.
"I used Ansion I know her history, Her ancestry, I don't think She's the Bad wolf," Jana said.
"It's like the Segolia fan club around here today," Rhyd said.
"Look Jana just because you seen that doesn't mean that she couldn't of hid something from you and you know that," I said.
"She's going to tell me what is in Tom's Veins. She's going to tell me why she framed my dad, And I'm not leaving until she does," Rhyd said. As he ran off.
"We'll keep an eye on Rhyd, You keep an eye on Tom," I said.
As Jana and I catched up with Rhyd. At Segolia as we saw Dacia.
"Well, What've you got," Rhyd said.
"It's been one day," Dacia said.
"Fine, Get Sweeney down here," Rhyd said.
"I have to tread very softly," Dacia said.
"Sweeney," Rhyd said.
"I can't trust anybody," Dacia said.
"Sweeney," Rhyd said.
"Do you want me to be the next one she carts off?" Dacia said. "Cos then you'll never know the truth about your dad, Will you, All you're going is making this harder for me to do it unnoticed,"
"Tom's really messed, I didn't know what else to do," I said.
"I can't help that our friend walked out of here with that serum, or he was stupid enough to try it," Dacia said. "You've asked me to find out if your dad was right, and that is what I'm trying to do,"
"What if he gets sick," Rhyd said. "Or worse,"
"I thought he was going to Whitewood," Dacia said.
"We can't get hold of her," Jana said.
"Then keep trying, The longer you keep me here the less I can do to help," Dacia said. "You need to leave now, Before you put us all in jeopardy,"
"As if I'm scared of her, She has no idea how stronger a True Alpha really is," I said.
As we left.
"That went well," Jana said.
"Jana?" Rhyd said.
"I mean, and there was me, worried you hadn't even thought it through," Jana said.
"Jana," I said. As Whitewood showed up.
"Get in," Whitewood said.
As we got in.
"Where the hell have you been?" I said.
As we got back to mine. And headed in.
Shan and Ceri were there.
"When you didn't answer my calls, I thought," Shan said.
"You told me on a voicemail what your friend had stolen from Segolia," Whitewood said.
"Stolen's a strong word," Rhyd said.
"Exactly more like found," I said.
"You think I'd risk a conversation like that inside the building? There are cameras everywhere," Whitewood said. "I've just been telling these 3 how stupid they've been,"
"You new to this whole Whitewood. Let's get one thing straight, I know exactly what I am doing, I'm not scared of Sweeney. She can only try and hope that she can scare me. But After everything I've seen, She can't that," I said.
"Look, Tom had a real freak out in French Class, It was like an attack," Shan said.
"Right you better take me to him straight away," Whitewood said.
"Where is he?" I said.
"He's at the Kafe with Kay," Shan said.
As Whitewood, Jana and Rhyd headed.
As I headed up and found my laptop.
Then Heard something from downstairs.
"You're still here," Ceri said.
"Oh he Doesn't want me around," Shan said. "Or I don't want to be around him, One or the other,"
"Because of Kay? You don't like her stepping on your territory," Ceri said.
"Tom's not my Territory," She said as I got down stairs.
"Oh he so is," I said. "Come on Shan you really think I don't see it,"
"Oh right," Ceri said.
As Shan lefted.
"So is her Territory," I said.
"How'd you know," Ceri said.
"That's easy, Been there," I said.

Not long after Rhyd and Jana got here with Tom, As did Shan and Whitewood.
"What's happening," I said.
"He's hearts racing, He's burning up," Whitewood said. "This is definitely one of ours,"
"So you know how to fix him," Jana said.
"I've no way of telling what was in it," Whitewood said. "Our Serum can't be doing this to him,"
"If you did make it, who did," Rhyd said.
"Is he okay?" Shan said.
"Not if these symptoms continue," Whitewood said.
"Who are you calling," I said.
As Someone showed up. Alex.
"I don't get this, I don't get ho w anyone could get hold of our equipment," Alex said.
"Forget that for a minute and focus on Tom," I said.
"He's going what he can," Shan said.
"The think Victoria Sweeney is involved," Whitewood said.
"Sweeney," Alex said.
"But I don't get how even she could," Whitewood said.
"The missing Batch Remember?" Alex said.
"Yeah, the stock count was wrong but," Whitewood said.
"Who looked into that?" I said.
"Who came down into the lab and said to leave it to her," Alex said.
"The same person who monitors every transaction," Whitewood said. "Everyone and everything,"
"Victoria Sweeney," Jana said.
"Okay," Alex said. Pulling out something.
"What are you giving him," Jana said.
"It's something I've been working on, It's safe," Alex said.
"Well What exactly is it," Shan said. "It's working, Alex, You're a genius,"
Then Tom has some reaction to it.
"It must reacted to the serum he took earlier," Alex said.
"What about the antigen we were working on?" Whitewood said.
"Good Idea," Alex said.
"I'll got to the lab," Whitewood said.
"We can't wait, You need to do something now," Jana said.
"Screw it, See if this works," I said grabbing Tom and pulled as much as I could out of him. "Damn, I won't be able to do that again for a while,"
"Wolfblood healing," Shan said. "He's got Wolfblood DNA in him, Maybe Wolfblood remedies will work,"
"I'm taking him to Segolia," Alex said. "Come one, There'll be questions but I'll take responsibility,"
"We're running out of time, Alex, It will take too long to get there, Ceri," I said.
"Get my things," Ceri said.
"Okay," Jana said.

"Ceri," I said.
"Now we wait," Ceri said.
As Rhyd, Jana and I went into the other room.
"He's awake," Shan said.
As Everyone but Rhyd, Alex and I went in.
"Do you really not know what's in it?" Rhyd said.
"No. I'll take it back get the residue analysed, We'll find out," Alex said.
"Aren't you taking a big risk," Rhyd said.
"Well, it's a bit late to worry now, Anyway, I'm not afraid of Victoria Sweeney," Alex said. "You leave her to me,"
"Not if she tries on me," I said.
"You ever heard of Cerberus," Rhyd said.
"Heard of what?" Alex said.
XXX
"I still can't believe you got me to put a western on," I said.
"I'm more Wolfblood than anyone here," Tom said. "Jokes, Jokes, jokes, you lot,"
"Not funny," We said.
"Alright, Alright, What?" Tom said.
"What?" Shan said.
"I don't know, Thanks guys," Rhyd said.
"Sorry maybe," Jana said.
"Alright Well maybe if you lot didn't left me on my own in Segolia in the first place," Tom said. "Okay Thank you, Sorry," After Jana hit him with a pillow.
"Well, I am going to get something to eat, I'm assuming you are not hungry after scoffing all those burgers," Rhyd said.
As we went and got some food.
That's all for this chapter.
