Chapter 18: Deadly Decisions

(3rd Person Pov – Dyson's Just Entered Back Room)

As soon as Dyson entered the room, his roar could be heard down the street because of the fact Kenzi was gone. Bo and Lauren were standing there in front of the pups while Tamsin, Lucia and Zombie were knocked unconscious. His eyes kept flashing until Bo turned to him and felt her heart break because of the feral look in his eyes. She gently placed a hand on Lauren's arm to push her further away from the pups. Bo just prayed that Dyson would still recognize her in this shape.

"Dyson?" Bo called as she tried to get his attention. "The pups are fine. Kenzi was taken trying to protect them. She didn't go willingly." There were tears starting to form in her eyes as she stared at her friend. "Tamsin was the first to try and get Kenzi back but my father," Bo spat his failed title. "was more powerful then her since, well you guys know."

"Dyson?" A voice came from behind Dyson, Hale stood there with Trick and Macy. "We'll get her back, man." Hale nodded as he allowed Macy to go to Zombie and Lucia.

"I may know a way to locate her." Trick turned and headed up the stairs to the left. Lochlyn and The Morrigan followed after him as he headed up into another room that held most of his relics.

Dyson growled as he moved towards his pups, spinning hearing someone moved. Lauren was trying to check the pups over when Dyson heard her. Lauren froze when she heard Dyson spin and prayed that he wouldn't attack her. She was just doing as her doctor training demanded of her. Tilting her head forward, she bared the back of her neck as she tried to keep her voice calm as she spoke to him.

"I want to check the pups over and make sure that nothing is wrong." Lauren cut her eyes threw the hair that was hanging in front of her face. "I swear I will not hurt them. They are to precious." With the baring of the back of her neck, Lauren was able to allowed a few seconds Dyson needed to get back in control of his body.

"Smart move." He smirked as he headed over, ignoring Lauren along the way and he leaned down, sniffing both Mikael and Ali. "They're fine. Just missing their mother." He let a rumble escape his chest, soothing both of his pups.

He picked the boy up and handed him to Bo. "He's Mikael." Dyson smiled as a small yawn came from Mikael's mouth. "Kenzi picked his name."

"That's unusual." Hale raised a brow as he leaned against the wall with a smirk on his face and arms crossed over his chest. "Usually the male picked the male pups name and the female does the same for the female pup."

Dyson shrugged as he picked up his son, then daughter. "Kenzi asked if we could." He nuzzled both of them, calming them down enough that they went to sleep. "Now what are we doing to get Kenzi back?"

"We need to find a tracker." Trick said as he came out from the top room with Lochlyn and the Morrigan. "Eddie should be a good one to track where Kenzi is located. I believe everyone has gotten one of these." He pulled out a tarot card called The Wander.

"Yeah." Hale pulled out his card.

Dyson nodded along with Bo and Lauren, all of them pulling the card out they didn't even know they had. "Whats going on?" Bo asked before anyone could say anything. "How does this get us any closer to Kenzi?"

"It's his calling card." Tamsin murmured as her eyes drooped. "Your old mans card when he wants to whips someone's memory." Her head hit the back of the couch and was asleep.

"Whip someone's memory?" Dyson frowned as he kept his eyes on his pups. "Why would he want to do that?"

"I think someone is trying to erase Kenzi." The Morrigan said looking at her nails. "Everyone has heard of Bo's father." Her eyes rose to meet Bo's. "He is a terrible evil that was banished from this realm into the next. Isn't that right, Trick?" Everyone's eyes went from the Morrigan to Trick who nodded, rather reluctantly.

"She's right." Trick sat down. "I think it's time to tell the story about why a lot has been kept from you, Bo. It may be hard to understand but I did everything in my power to keep you safe."

Bo nodded as Dyson tensed. Even he didn't know the whole thing. Dyson knew that what ever Trick was about to say would change a lot of things.

(Kenzi's Pov – Gabe's Hide Out – Around 20 Mins Later)

The first thing I noticed was that the ground was rather soft. The light was dim and I then realized I was in a room, on a bed. Panicking, I jumped straight up with wide eyes looking around trying to figure out where the hell I was. The last thing I remembered was trying to claw Gabe's eyes out then I saw his hand raise and come down, then everything went black.

Fucking bastard knocked me out! I mentally screamed as I threw the blankets off myself and looked down to see that my clothes were changed. Oh hells no! He better not of undressed me himself! I'LL FUCKIN' KILL HIM, MYSELF!

"How are you feeling dear?" I heard his voice coming from the shadows in the room. I couldn't help but shiver at the echoing sound of his voice.

"What the hell did you bring me here for?!" I yelled jumping off the bed. He only chuckled. "Come out here ya bastard! First you take BoBo and Lauren then kidnap me away from my babies!"

I could feel Nezi rattling her cage, wanting to play with the fucking shadow man. To hell if he's Bo's daddy. From what I remember she didn't know any of her family until she met Trick. I saw him walk out in front of me but I knew it wasn't him as I ducked and brought my elbow back to hit him in the gut. I spun out of the way before he had a chance to recover and snarled as I faced him once more. Shock was written all over his face as he stared at me. His once nice eyes, turned rather dark as his face twisted into something evil. I could tell I pissed the fucker off but he deserved it.

"You would do better then upsetting me young vampling." Gabe taunted but I wasn't buying it.

"Really?" I looked him up and down. "And why is that? I'm not like my pathetic father or my aunt."

"Oh," Gabe smiled widely as his faced turned rather sunny. "And what makes you so special?"

Can anyone say freaky! I thought as I tilted my head to the side. "You did see what I did to uncle Vlad? Didn't you?"

"No but that is not important." Gabe smirked as he tilted his head to the side as his eyes ran up and down my body. I couldn't help but gag at the thought of him touching me and Nezi was begging to get out.

"Oh but I think it is." I didn't let him think of the warning as I shot a fire ball towards him at high speed.

Gabe's eyes widen as he tried to move but he was unable dodge fast enough and the fire ball singed his arm. I chuckled as I brought both hands up and created fire balls in them as I raised my eye brow to him. I was going to give him a choice, leave me and my family alone – including Bo and Trick, or I would burn his ass to the next century.

"If you kill me, you will never be able to leave." His eyes narrowed as he smiled widely. "And if you do, you will die before anyone is able to help you."

I snarled as I threw both fire balls towards him turning him into nothing but ash. I shivered as I felt the glee of my kill come over her. Sighing, I knew that this time I would need to hurry or I would be here forever. This couldn't get any worse.

Could it?

(3rd Person Pov – Dyson's Loft – 7:00 PM)

Dyson sat down as he rested from taking care of his pups. For some odd reason he couldn't remember where their mother was. He felt as though a piece of his heart was missing and it didn't make him feel any better knowing that he was forgetting something. Bo was with Lauren which caused his a moment of pause because if he wasn't with Bo then who would he be with. Tamsin he dislikes and this pups smell of another. Shaking his head, Dyson picked up his phone and noticed that there was a missed call. Frowning, he pushed redial and suddenly heard a voice he forgot about for a split second.

"Hey this is the Kenzi," Dyson heard and suddenly images were flashing through his mind. "I'm not at the phone so I'm probably busy kicking some one's ass. Leave a message an' I'll get back ta ya when I'm through."

"Kenzi." Dyson whispered as he hung up. "Why did I forget her? Did you two?"

The pups whined as their eyes flashed golden, with a hint of red, in them. "I suppose you didn't. I wonder if anyone else suffered from forgetting her." Dyson frowned as he opened his phone and dialed Bo's number. He wondered if she was alright because something was nagging him in the back of his mind. It wasn't until Bo answered that Dyson knew what was going on.

"Hello?" Bo said as she answered.

"Your father wiped our memories of Kenzi." Dyson said hoping she would remember Kenzi.

"Who's Kenzi?" Bo asked sounding rather worried. "And what do you mean my father wiped our memories clean? If there was a Kenzi where is she and why did you remember while the rest of us didn't?" Dyson could tell she was getting upset.

That's when he heard Lauren on the other end. "Usually when someone tries to wipe someone elses mind, its rather easy but when you have a mated wolf into the mix," Lauren paused for a moment and then sighed. "If Gabe did do this, like you're saying, then you couldn't be completed because of the bond you have with her. You did bite her with you...um...mated?"

"Yes." Dyson answered not bashful at all about mating with Kenzi. Although he was glad no one was around because she was rather frisky in the sack if he could remember correctly. "And the reason the pups are still crying is because they came from her body and they knew someone was missing."

"That's right." Lauren said when there was a shuffling noise.

"So what are we going to do Dyson?" Bo asked on the line once again. "If Kenzi is gone, then we need to find out where she is and how she was taken. I still cant remember everything."

"Let me get a hold of Tamsin and Hale and I'll get back to you." Dyson said looking down at his pups. "If you don't mind, why don't you and Lauren come over. I only trust you and Lauren to watch them. But don't leave each others side."

"Will do." Bo said as she hung up the phone.

Dyson was a little more at ease as he hung up and then opened it once again, dialing Hale's number. He couldn't believe that they wanted him to have a dark partner, hales influence. But this was a little ridiculous. When Hale didn't answer he left a message then hung up. Dyson didn't have Tamsin's number which was not something he wanted but now he wished he did. Shaking his head, Dyson tossed his phone on the counter as he made his way over and dug through a bag that was sitting on his counter when he arrived with the pups. He thought it was rather nice but he still didn't know who it was from.

That alone gave him pause.

(3rd Person Pov – Unknown Location)

Tamsin walked along the side of the road. She knew that she needed to run but she had forgotten from what. As she walked, she felt as though her insides were failing. Tamsin knew that her end was near but she needed to find a place to hide until she was full grown and had some of her memories. Never before had she thought she would die alone but yet again, after all those lives she lead, she would end up alone during her death. As she walked she realized it was a cliff that over looked a small beach. Smiling, she knew she had found where she wished to die. Tamsin hurried as she climbed down but when her foot missed the final step, all she could remember was the wind blowing her hair and then nothing but painless darkness. Tamsin could only hope that her life would be different next time around, if there was a next time.
