Chapter 10
Theresa screamed in agony as the venom from Odie's teeth made its way into her bloodstream, and now Theresa could feel Odie sucking her blood at a fast pace, "oh God!" Theresa screamed reaching her hand out trying to find anything to use to get him off of her, but to her dismay Odie noticed her doing this and used his legs to trap her arms.
"Odie stop!" Anna screamed running over to Odie.
Odie stopped sucking Theresa's blood and glared at Anna "No!" he screamed "she deserves this after what she did to me, besides you heard the Oracle," Odie said as he began sucking Theresa's blood again, Anna looked at Odie and then at Theresa before sighing, as she remembered her daughter and realized that she had no choice, "so be it then." Anna said running away so she wouldn't have to watch Odie kill Theresa.
"Theresa!" Krista screamed looking for anything she could use to save her.
"Run!" Theresa screamed knowing that as soon as Odie was done killing her that Krista would be next.
"I'm not leaving you." Krista said in a final tone, Theresa wanted to argue but she was beginning to get weaker and weaker as Odie continued to suck her blood, and Theresa knew that soon she would be dead, she felt tears streaming down her face as she thought of Jay, "I love you my sweet Jay," Theresa thought as she waited for death, looking up at the moon that was coming out from behind the clouds she thought of Jay, the night he had proposed, the countless times she had cuddled up in to him watching a movie, or just sitting together not doing anything, Theresa felt one last tear escape before darkness overcame her.
"Theresa!" She heard Krista scream, Theresa tried to force her eyes to open but she couldn't, "Theresa help!" Krista screamed.
"She can't help you now," Odie said laughing as Theresa heard the same sound that she had heard when Odie was sucking her blood, Krista began sobbing, and begging for her life, and as Theresa heard Krista begin begging she all of a sudden felt something change, she felt her heart beat accelerate, the little pain that she still felt on her neck from Odie's teeth disappeared, and she felt a coldness that started in her spine begin going all through her body making the hairs on the back of her neck and on her arms stand on edge, Theresa gasped as she began shaking violently.
"What the?!" She heard Odie scream, but that was the last thing she heard as the shaking caused her to get an awful headache.
Krista watched shocked as Theresa sat up fast still shaking violently, something about Theresa shaking violently had made Odie stop sucking Krista's blood and begin growling at Theresa.
"Orcle!" Odie screamed, and not even a minute later the Oracle ran over smiling as he saw what was happening to Theresa, "what the heck is happening to her?!" Odie demanded.
"The change has begun." The Oracle said looking up at the sky Krista did as well the moon was now out from behind the clouds, it was full, that's when Krista realized what was happening, Theresa was turning into a werewolf.
"What change?!" Odie demanded jumping slightly as Theresa screamed and when Krista looked at her she gasped as a bright light appeared around Theresa causing her to have to cover her eyes, after the light disappeared a werewolf stood where Theresa was.
"Oh my God!" Krista said shocked taking a step back.
"Well I'm out of here." The Oracle said before running down the street, clearly he didn't want to stick around to watch what was going to happen next.
"A werewolf?" Odie asked shocked before growling at Theresa, "that's fine I can still kill you no problem." Odie said jumping at Theresa, who growled jumping at him as well, and the sound that they made upon contact was deafening.
Jay began getting more and more anxious as he tried to call Theresa for the tenth time in as many minutes only to get her voicemail.
"Neil!" He called.
"What's up, Jay?" Neil asked running over to him.
"Can you try and call Krista, I can't get a hold of Theresa, and I'm starting to get worried." Jay said looking down at his phone Theresa and Krista had been gone for over an hour and Jay knew that Theresa wouldn't go that long without checking in with him.
"Alright." Neil said taking out his cell phone and dialing Krista's number.
"Hello?" Krista answered breathless.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Neil asked concerned as soon as he heard the worry in Krista's voice.
"Is Jay there?" Krista asked.
"Yes." Neil said gasping and pulling the phone away from his ear as a sound that sounded like thunder came through the receiver.
"What was that?!" Neil demanded.
"Put me on speaker!" Krista demanded.
"What's going on?!" Jay demanded clearly he had heard that thunderous sound and was now even more worried.
"Theresa's a werewolf, and she's currently fighting Odie!" Krista said her voice full of worry.
"Oh my God!" Jay said feeling his heart skip a beat at the thought of Theresa fighting a vampire, "where are you?" Jay asked in a harsher tone then he intended but he had to get there to help Theresa.
"Downtown New Olympia right by the Oracle."
Jay turned to where Herry, and Atlanta were standing around talking, "Herry, Atlanta come with Neil and I we need to help Theresa!" Jay yelled running out of the door of the gym, it didn't take long for Atlanta to catch up to him.
"What's up, Jay?" Atlanta asked her voice full of worry, "is it Theresa?"
"Theresa's a werewolf and is fighting Odie."
"What?!" Atlanta asked shocked.
"Is Krista OK?!" Neil demanded.
"She's fine just freaked out," Neil said before looking at Atlanta, "can you go make sure Krista and Theresa are alright?"
"Of course." Atlanta said running out of the janitors closet.
"What about us?!" Neil demanded.
"Herry go and get your truck, I'll meet you outside in a second." Jay said running away.
"Where are you going?!" Neil yelled after him.
"To get Persephone!" Jay yelled back.
"Persephone?" Neil asked confusion evident in his voice as he looked at Herry.
"Jay always has a plan." Herry said taking his truck keys out of his pocket running out of the school with Neil hot on his trail.
When Jay finally reached Persephone's solarium he was so out of breath he wasn't even sure if he'd be able to speak, it had been a while since he had had to book it like that.
"Persephone!" he called opening her door.
"Jay!" Persephone said surprised, "what's wrong?"
"Theresa's a werewolf!" Jay said his voice higher then he intended.
"She changed into one?" Persephone asked surprised.
"Yes, and she's fighting Odie!"
"Oh dear!" Persephone said running over to her desk and taking out a pistol putting a bullet in it.
"What's what for?!" Jay demanded.
"Theresa's going to be a little hard to control, this is just in case." Persephone said defensively.
"I'd really rather you not have to shoot my fiancé." Jay said.
"Jay, if something happens that the police get to her first you may not have a fiancé for much longer, since this bullet will only put her to sleep, their bullet will kill her." Persephone said a little harsher then she intended but she had to get the point across to Jay.
Jay sighed nodding his head, knowing that Persephone was right.
"Let's go." Persephone said running out of the room, Jay followed hot on her heels.
Atlanta had to cover her ears as she heard a sound that sounded like thunder, but as she looked up at the sky she discovered that it was too clear for it to be thunder.
"Something tells me I'm going the right way." Atlanta whispered to herself as she ran in the direction that the sound was coming from, and as she rounded the corner she was surprised when a frantic Krista ran into her arms.
"Oh Atlanta!" she said sobbing.
"Are you alright?" Atlanta asked concerned.
"Odie bit me!" Krista said hysterically, "and Theresa's a werewolf!"
Atlanta pulled Krista into a hug, looking around she gasped as she saw Theresa jumping at Odie but he moved out of the way and Theresa hit a tree hard enough to knock it over, she whimpered raising one of her paws.
"Face it, Theresa you're no match for me!" Odie laughed jumping at Theresa; she growled jumping out of the way before he could land on her.
Atlanta looked around for anything she could use to help Theresa, before going into her pocket taking out the sword that Athena had given her hours before; taking a deep breath she looked at Odie throwing the sword at his back, Odie cried out in pain turning around.
"Atlanta, how nice to see you!" Odie said grinning at her, "too bad I'm going to have to kill you." Odie said jumping at her Atlanta screamed as she watched Odie get closer and closer to her, Theresa growled jumping after him she used her teeth and turned her head sharply sending him flying in the opposite direction, Theresa then landed roughly beside Atlanta.
"Are you OK?" Atlanta asked Theresa, feeling silly not even knowing if she could understand her, Theresa looked up at Atlanta letting out a little growl and nodding her head slightly telling Atlanta that obviously she could understand her.
"Theresa!" Jay's voice caused Theresa, Atlanta and Krista to turn to face him, "Are you alright?" he asked concerned, Theresa nuzzled her head into his leg, Jay patted her head.
"Are you OK, Krista?" Neil asked running over to her hugging her, Krista unable to speak just cried into his chest.
"I have had enough of this!" Odie screamed pointing at Theresa, "I will kill you tonight before the sun rises!" Odie screamed running towards Theresa she growled running towards Odie.
"Theresa no!" Jay called after her, but Theresa ignored him and when Odie and Theresa ran into each other the sound they made was even louder than thunder, the impact caused Theresa to whimper lifting up her front leg she began limping still whimpering.
"Her wrist!" Atlanta cried, "She must have made it worse!"
"What do we do?" Neil asked looking at Jay.
Jay looked up at the sky sun rise was still too far away to wait for, and Theresa was running out of time
Odie wanted to finish this off now, Jay looked back at Herry's truck smiling as he got an idea,
"I'll be right back!" Jay yelled running towards Herry's truck jumping in the driver's seat, Jay quickly turned the truck on putting it in reverse and backing the truck up too fast almost hitting a tree.
"Jay what the heck!" Herry screamed but Jay ignored him as he put the truck into drive and turned it around putting the high beams on Odie screamed as he fell to the ground unable to move, Theresa whimpered as she tried standing up but she just fell back to the ground hard.
"Atlanta and Herry tie Odie up!" Jay ordered as he ran to Theresa's side, Persephone kneeled down beside her as well
"How do we change her back?" Jay asked looking at Theresa worriedly as Theresa laid her head on Jay's knee, he began rubbing her head, even though she was a wolf she still looked exhausted, Persephone looked up at the sky smiling slightly.
"The moon is disappearing since it's almost dawn, that's good." Persephone said patting Theresa's head, "Theresa," she said "I need you to focus all your energy on becoming human again."
Theresa closed her eyes and Jay continued to pat her head in an attempt to calm her down.
"Let me go!" Odie screamed causing Theresa to jump and lose her concentration, Jay turned around and was about to tell Herry to shut Odie up but Atlanta was already on top of it as she ran over to Odie putting the piece of tape over his mouth.
"Oh shut up!" she said looking at Herry, "hold him and make sure he doesn't get away."
Herry nodded picking Odie up and placing him over his shoulder looking at Jay annoyed as Odie began kicking him in the chest.
"Just hang on for a few minutes," Jay said turning back to Theresa, "sweetheart I love you so much, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you, come back to me." Jay said kissing her head, Theresa closed her eyes.
"Did it work?" Atlanta asked looking at Persephone, before gasping as a bright light appeared around Theresa when it disappeared Theresa was now lying there unconscious.
"Theresa!" Jay cried as he noticed the bite marks on her neck.
"Odie bit her!" Krista said, "And I think he took a lot of blood."
"We have to get her to Chiron!" Jay said picking her up gently.
"What do I do with him?" Herry asked sounding incredibly annoyed as Odie was still kicking his chest.
"Put him on the floor." Jay said getting in the back seat still holding Theresa, Herry nodded putting Odie on the ground, Neil, and Krista also got into the back as Atlanta got the front, Herry then sped off in the direction of the school.
Anna cursed as she watched Odie being taken away she had been watching the whole thing from a distance, and she was going to go and help Odie but as soon as Theresa turned into a werewolf and began fighting Odie Anna knew there was nothing that she could do, a bite or even a scratch from a werewolf would kill a vampire almost instantly and the only thing that could save them was the bite from another vampire, but if Theresa had have gotten both of them then they would both be dead, and then God only knows what would happen to her daughter then, luckily by the looks of it Theresa didn't know this since not once did she ever try and bite Odie.
"Anna!" the sound of Cronus' voice through her necklace made her jump, "what the heck was going on up there?!" he demanded.
"How did you hear anything from Tarturas?" Anna asked confused.
"I can hear things through your mind," Cronus thought annoyed, causing Anna to shudder as she thought of some of the nasty thoughts she had had about Cronus, "now tell me what just happened!" he demanded, and Anna let out a small sigh of relief as Cronus didn't mention anything about her previous thoughts.
"Well one of the original seven can turn into a werewolf…" Anna began before getting cut off by Cronus.
"Oh let me guess Theresa." Cronus said sounding even more annoyed then before.
"How'd you guess?" Anna thought confused.
"Because she's always had a six sense, and even when I was fighting them in high school, she always managed to thwart my plans, it was only a matter of time before her powers grew and allowed her to change into something."
"OK well we have a problem…" Anna thought nervously.
"What happened now?" Cronus' thoughts became even more demanding.
"Odie's been kidnapped by his old friends."
"What?!" Cronus' thoughts screamed, "You have to get him back and fast!" Cronus demanded.
"OK I'll go and talk to Clarissa; she'll probably be able to give me a spell to help me get him back." Anna thought as she began running back to the house.
"Go quickly," Cronus' thoughts demanded, "don't forget you only have just over three months to break me out, you and Odie have to keep your strength up, and his friends probably won't let him feed."
"OK." Anna thought getting a bit annoyed; she knew what she had to do.
"Don't forget that if you fail, then your daughter will pay for your mistake." Cronus' thoughts became even more threatening and Anna had to hold back a growl.
"I won't let you down Cronus." Anna hoped her thoughts sounded sincere.
"See that you don't." Was the last thought that Anna heard from Cronus, as soon as Anna was sure that Cronus couldn't hear her anymore she let out a small growl, besides even if Cronus had heard that little growl she was sure that he knew that he had made her mad and would probably just laugh that he had gotten a reaction out of her.
As Anna looked up at the sky she began running at a faster pace now that the sky was starting to get lighter, soon the sun would be up and she was still a fair distance from the house, Anna only hoped that Clarissa would have a spell that would help her get Odie back.
