Eclipse At Dawn

Chapter four: Bad News

Lupe and her gang had been in England for about four weeks. And in that time they had made exactly no progress. Lupe was so frustrated presently she was taking it out heatedly on a punching bag hanging from the Daybreak gym.

Lupe was not used to not having successes in fast succession. The fact that in one month she had got hardly anything at all meant she was ready to hurt something. She was the best Tracker in Thierry's organisation, or she was meant to be but she had turned up exactly nothing.

What was that?

She kicked the bag again frustrated. Damn the Night World. Damn the Millennium. Damn the War. Damn Kaitlin for being right. Damn Daybreak for being so careless. Damn Red Fern for knowing where to strike.

Damn everything!

She hit the bag with everything she had sending it crashing into the wall opposite with a loud crack. She was in one of her rages when she cared about nothing at all and damned everything and everyone into the pits of hell.

She stopped and caught the bag to stop it swinging and then collected her towel form the floor and stalked to the shower room, which was placed just off the side of the gym.

Mary K. caught her as she walked in the door. "Lupe calm down you can't always solve an assignment in record time you know." Lupe turned and smiled at Mary K. She might have been human but sometimes her analysis of a situation bordered on telepathic and it was sometimes scary.

Again she had hit the nail on the head and told Lupe everything she was feeling in one sentence. Lupe regarded Mary K. and smiled. "You've got too used to knowing you're the best there is. Knowing it doesn't change the facts now because it isn't coming easy to you, you are going to have to work for it."

"You're right." Lupe smiled. "Are you sure you're human?" She joked. It was a running joke among the agents and Mary K. always took it in her stride. "Definitely and it proves I'm just as good if not better than you!"

Lupe laughed. "That's true. You simply don't have the strength of the Night People."

Mary K. smiled and then said, "Come on we're wanted in Xavier's office. She shot Lupe a pointed look and Lupe stopped.

Their weekly report from Thierry had obviously been delivered. Lupe walked to where she had left her things and used her towel to wipe the sweat off her face. She then ran to the shower room shouting that she would meet Mary K and the others there in 10 minutes.

True to her word 10 minutes later she knocked on the door and at Xavier's "Enter." She opened the door and moved into the office.

The other members of her team where already there waiting for her. Danny smiled when she entered. "All right there Lupe?" He asked.

Lupe looked at Danny and cocked her head, "Could be better. But we can't have everything can we?"

"Mary K. tells me that you are used to having fast results." Xavier said from behind his desk. "She's right." This coming from Shell, Cammie looked at her, "Something are harder to see than others. You will help us do this I know you will."

Lupe smiled. "Thanks Cammie."

Xavier pulled out a laptop and opened the mains and connected to the Internet through a secure line checked by Cammie who the group had been surprised to learn was a keen hacker and knew everything there was to know about computers.

She straightened from her position bent over the keyboard and smiled at her soulmate. He smiled back and hit a button on the keyboard. Then he motioned for everyone to group round the screen.

Lupe did s she was told and smiled when Thierry's familiar face appeared on the screen.

"Hi everyone." Thierry nodded his head at the screen. "Hi Thierry." Xavier answered. "How are things in Head Quarters?" Thierry's face went quickly from smiling to grim.

"Not good I'm afraid we've lost contact with the Wild Powers." Lupe froze. "WHAT?" She gasped.

Everyone instinctively gathered closer to hear more. "How in hell did that happen?" Toby demanded. "I thought you and Kaitlin had that problem sorted."

Thierry laughed bitterly. "Kaitlin would be the problem. Something has happened to her." Lupe felt her heart drop below her knees.

Lupe leaned in and could see worry lines about his mouth. "How do you know this?" "Galen."

Thierry's one word answer was enough. Kaitlin was the twin sister of Galen Drache. If he said there was something wrong with her then he had to be believed. The two of them a physic link that was something like the Soulmate bonds only not as intimate.

Thierry leaned in. "Lupe I've got everyone I can working on looking for Kaitlin and the other Wild Powers but I need you to concentrate on finding that mole. We need his information. I'll check in if I have anything else I can give you. go careful."

With that he terminated the call.

The screen went blank and all the occupants in Xavier's office stared at each other. This was the worst news they could possibly get. This was so not good.

Lupe wanted to dwell on the fact one of her best friends had disappeared but she knew she had a job to do so she couldn't. If she did it would only make her loose focus.

She was friends with all the Wild Powers and their soulmates and she knew that they would do their job it was up to her and her team to do theirs.

This only strengthened her resolve to get results quicker.

"Well you heard him." She said turning to her team. He is doing his job it's time to do ours." She smiled at Xavier even though the smile didn't quite reach her eyes and said, "Thanks Xavier we'll report in if we find anything else."

Then she opened the door and she was gone.
