Chapter 30: Troubles Brewing
(3rd Person Pov – Death Train)
Bo and Rainer sat beside Kenzi as she stayed in a sleep like state. They were unable to leave if it meant Kenzi had to stay behind. Both of them were rather worried yet neither of them said anything as each one held one of Kenzi's hands. Bo's eyes were closed as she tried to figure out what had happened yet she couldn't understand. It seemed like Kenzi was frightened yet nothing in the room was terrifying. Rainer could only image it was the dark queen that caused Kenzi to fall into a sleep like state. His eyes went to Bo's only to see she had her eyes closed. He knew that she was worried about Kenzi but there was nothing they could do. A few more minutes passed until Bo's eyes snapped open as soon as Kenzi squeezed her hand.
"Kenzi?!" Bo sounded rather tired. "Are you alright? Can you open your eyes?"
Kenzi groaned as she sat up. "I'm..." She licked her lips as she realized she needed to feed soon. "Good."
"Kenzi." Rainer scolded her as he felt his mark burn slightly. "You need to feed but there was something else. Tell us."
Kenzi raised her black eyes to meet Bo and Rainer's. "Nezi...She's gone." She shook her head as she tried to think of something. "Someone else is there though but is not Nezi. It's someone darker."
"Alright." Bo frowned not liking what she was hearing. "Let's get off this train. It may have some effect on you."
Kenzi nodded as her, Bo and Rainer walked towards the back of the train. Bo had to help Kenzi while they stood where Kenzi herself had jumped not that long ago. She spotted a piece of her night gown that was snagged on the rusted railing. She smiled as she took a deep breathe, grabbed both Bo and Rainer's hands then jumped with them beside her. She could only pray that they would be somewhere close to home instead of where she ended up before.
(3rd Person Pov – Dal, Back Room – 7:00 AM)
Dyson paced in the back room as Lauren and Macy were taking care of his and Kenzi's pups. He couldn't help but feel that something was wrong because he wasn't able to get a hold of his mate via the link they shared. His wolf was also pacing because he knew that Kenzi was in trouble not to mention that Bo was with her. He still couldn't understand what was going on in his mates head, or Bo's for that matter.
Want Mate. His wolf growled deeply as it paced in its cage. Where is mate?
Dyson sighed as he flopped into a chair. I don't know. He couldn't help but sound broken. If I knew, we would be there.
His wolf just whimpered as they sat there watching Macy and Lauren play with his kids. Dyson couldn't understand what was going on but he knew that something was different after Bo's kidnapping. It was as if she was a completely different person. He forced those thoughts out of his head as he cut his eyes towards the door. He could hear someone coming and he knew it was Trick by the smell. The only thing that caused him to frown was the fact Trick smelled slightly different. When his pups started to whimper, Dyson stood and headed over holding out his arms.
Macy and Lauren had no problem as they handed Mikael and Ali over. Just as Dyson sat back down in the chair he vacated, Trick walked in with a frown on his face. The others followed as Hale went to Macy's side. Tamsin was standing over by Zombie holding his hand while everyone found a seat. Dyson could smell the tension in the room which caused him to hold onto his kids tighter. Both of them noticed and whimpered at the pressure. He released his grip slightly but kept his guard up. Trick didn't say anything for a few minutes then his eyes rose to meet Dyson's. Instantly, Dyson knew that something bad was going on because of the haunted look in his eyes.
"Trick?" Dyson whispered as Mikael and Ali snuggled into his arms. "What's wrong?"
"He's trying to come back." Trick closed his eyes as he felt a shiver of dread run down his spine. "The one who I banished will come back and release him." The Blood King opened his eyes to look at Dyson.
Lauren frowned as she looked between the two. "What are you talking about?"
"When I ruled over the land, before I met Dyson." Trick sighed as he slumped in his chair. "I used my powers to do some terrible things." He turned to Zombie. "Being a Blood Mage is rather hard because of the power it brings, however, the last time I used my own blood to rewrite history was to keep a powerful Fae away from Bo."
Zombie frowned as he tilted his head to the side. "The Wander." It was a statement causing Trick to nod in agreement. "He was more powerful then any other Fae but the problem was he was extremely dark. Darker then the Morrigan as well as the Garuda."
"What?" Lauren stood her eyes narrowed. "You rewrote history to fit your own needs and created this...this...evil Fae?"
Trick shook his head. "I didn't create him, Lauren." He sighed trying to find a way to make her understand. "The Wander is extremely dangerous because he has a power that can predict the future. He can tell what you are going to do before you even know. I had to make sure he didn't come for Bo because she would then be in trouble."
"Something's missing." Dyson finally spoke up after a few minutes thinking. "Kenzi has been acting rather odd just as Bo has." He looked to Trick. "Do you think it could have something to do with this Wander guy?"
"That I don't know, Dyson." Trick frowned as he thought for a moment. "The only one who would have things like that would be the Dark." He turned his eyes to Lauren. "You may be able to find something. Neither Hale or I can step foot on Dark territory but for some reason you, Bo, Kenzi and Dyson are able. Use that to your advantage."
Macy cleared her throat. "Where is Lucia?"
"She went shopping for Tamsin." Zombie spoke up. "She should be back shortly."
Macy nodded as she hugged Hale tighter. "So we need to find out about this Wander?" She turned her eyes towards Zombie. "We can always ask the vampires we know. That's if they're still alive." She couldn't help but smirk, causing Zombie to shake his head.
"You have your hands full, Siren." Zombie chuckled picking Tamsin up. "I'll see ya guys later. Tamsin and I are going to find Lucia then we're going to check out some of my old 'friends'." He winked to Macy as he exited the back room, shutting the door behind him.
"What should I look for?" Lauren asked as she stood, gathering her purse and keys. "When I look through the dark archives?" Her eyes snapped to Trick.
"Anything to do with a Horse." Trick frowned as he thought a moment. "I don't know why but the Wander is fond of horses. Also you need to check out someone named Rainer. He was the one I banished to another realm. With my memory back, time should have righted itself." Dyson as well as the others could see the Haunted look in the Trick's eyes.
"Alright." Dyson nodded handing Lauren, Ali. "Let's get going. Kenzi and Bo may have returned from where ever they were." His eyes flashed. "And if not, we're going to be doing a lot of research."
Lauren didn't say anything as she followed him out the door leaving Trick, Hale and Macy alone in the room. Hale cleared his throat, getting Trick's attention. Macy kissed his cheek and got up and walked into the front deciding she needed a drink. Hale chuckled and Trick called she could have anything but the top shelf. Both men heard a loud groan but decided to ignore it for the time being as Hale got up and moved closer to Trick. He could even see that something was bothering the Blood King.
"How are ya holdin' up?" Hale said as he leaned back in his chair. "I can tell you haven't been sleepin'." He tilted his head to the side.
Trick sighed as he layed his head back against the chair's back. "I've been having nightmares from the time Isabo failed." His eyes were locked on Hale's. "I also fear for Bo and Kenzi. What they will have to face, will be the ultimate evil. I don't know if either of them can make it back from that."
"What are you talking about, lil' man?" Hale frowned not understanding.
Trick shivered as another chill ran down his spine. "If I understand my memories correctly," He swallowed closing his eyes. "One Bo's 'hearts' will have to die in order for the gate to him to be closed for as long as it can hold." His eyes opened and Hale stiffened at the look in them.
"Is it going to be that bad?" Hale asked not really knowing if he wanted to know.
Trick nodded sliding out of the chair. "That bad and maybe worse."
Hale watched the Blood King walk out of the back room and head behind the bar before the door blocked his view. The siren sighed as he bowed his head. He knew that if the time come, Bo would need to choose or someone would do it for her. The only thing that worried him is Bo only had one heart unless...Hale's eyes widen wider then normal. He knew then what Bo's hearts were. Kenzi and Lauren. With that thought, he jumped up and rushed out of the back room because he needed to speak to Dyson. He didn't even say anything to Macy as he grabbed her hand and drug her from the bar. Trick watching with sad eyes.
(Kenzi's Pov – Unknown Location – 8:00 AM)
I knew we were off the train because of the sound of birds chirping. I opened my eyes to see that we were in the woods but as I took a deep breathe, I knew right where we were. In a little park not far from the club house. The scent of blood caused my thirst to flare but I pushed it down because I needed to concentrate, I wasn't hunting right now and I would later. I took another deep breathe and tried to get a hold of Nezi. I just prayed that I wouldn't hear that other voice. It gave me the chills.
Nezi? Are you there? I waited a few minutes as I sat up, to see that Bo and Rainer were lying side by side, still passed out from out little trip. Come on Nezi! I need to know if you're there!
I got to my feet, which was a feat in itself because I was kinda dizzy. Kenzi? I sighed in relief as I heard Nezi but she sounded rather scared. What in the FUCK happened!?
That's what I would like to know. I told her moving over and shaking Bo on her shoulder. "Bo, wake up." We'll figure this out later. She just nodded and decided to stay quiet. I needed to wake up Bo. "Come on Bo, Wake. Up." I poked her in the side this time.
"Fhemmennn." Bo mumbled, moving away from me, which caused me to narrow my eyes at her.
I growled at her. "Bo, its time to get up." She didn't say anything. "Bo, get your ass up, we're off the train!"
Bo just whimpered and mumbled something I didn't understand. I could only narrow my eyes at her as I tried to think of something to get her to wake up. It was then I got a great idea on how to wake her up. She would be slightly pissed but what could I say other then she asked for it.
"You asked for it Bobolicious." I smirked leaning down and licking her on the side of her face which caused my thirst to flare but I pushed it down. I wouldn't feed from Bo or Rainer. They were part of my family.
"KENZI!" Bo screamed as she bolted up, smacking her head with mine.
"Ow!" We both cried at the same time, which caused Rainer to wake up. We were both rubbing our heads in the same spot because I had to admit, BoBo had a hard head.
"Are you two alright?" Rainer looked between the two of us. "Bo? Kenzi?" I could see he was worried but I nodded towards Bo.
Bo glared at me but I only smirked, lowering my hand. "I'm fine other then the major headache." I could tell she was only slightly upset with me. "And the fact Kenzi decided to act like a DOG, and licked my face."
"You wouldn't wake up!" I pointed out as I turned to Rainer, with a smirk on my face. "Now, I need to go hunt. I'll meet you both back here in a few minutes." I then took off, before the mixed scents of their blood got to me.
Bo would tell Rainer where I was going and the reason I left so fast. With the smell of their blood in the air, I had a feeling that Bo hurt herself along with Rainer because I could smell it, although I don't think it was a large wound just a small scrap. Now I needed to hurry before I came across a innocent and feed from them. I knew I would need to kill to sate the thirst because of the fact it had been a little while since I did feed. I also hoped I wouldn't run into Dyson since I still couldn't feel him. It was as if our bond was muted for some reason and that scared me to no end. Yes, I would return but only after I fed. I didn't want to put anyone in danger, including Lauren and the others. With me not having fed before we left, it could have been weeks since I feed or even months since we were on that train not to mention my thirst seemed rather fiercer this time then the others I would have. I pushed that back in my mind as I raced through the darkened alley ways. The sooner I fed, the sooner I could go back to my mate and pups.

Author Note – I'm sorry I haven't been posting on this story but I have been working on it a small piece at a time. As I said in my other author notes in another story, sometimes its a sentence but other times its a paragraph or two. Now, why do you think Nezi is back but disappeared on the train? What does it mean? What about Bo having Two Hearts? Is Kenzi and Lauren really her two hearts, or does Bo now have three? Stay tuned for the next chapter to find out more, til then keep reading and reviewing...
