Isabel POV
A minute later Sam, myself, Adam, Jake and Seth had all left the house in a small group. We piled into the mercedes and Seth drove us as close to the field they'd been grabbed in as he could. We'd decided to dress like civilians and pretend we were just hikers. It was a short walk but about three minutes before we got there a helicopter passed us overhear, and it was really low too. We all shared uneasy looks as we ducked out of sight.
"We need to hurry," Jake said, Seth nodded and we picked up the pace.
We all got low on the ground, each of us climbing trees to watch. There were several huge trucks in the middle of the field. Paul looked to be in some kind of glass case. But according to Seth, wolves couldn't break through them.
They set the case on the top of a huge metal box, and it opened up, but only enough for the box and nothing else. As soon as it was in, it was sealed shut.
Edward was in that box, i could feel him.
Luna stood stalk still, about a dozen men surrounding her all with guns. She just looked amused. "Why aren't the sedatives working on her?" i heard someone ask, someone with authority, probably the commanding officer or something, to a doctor.
"I'm not sure, they should've set in a long time ago. She must be stronger then the five's," whatever that meant.
"I can hear you, you know," she said smirking at the whispering pair. "I can also smell your arousal, you know, if you gave me some goddamn clothes like i'd asked you to, this wouldn't be an issue."
His face went bright red and he stuttered a reply, "you also wouldn't feel humilated in front of your unit right about now." A few of them chuckled, and some just glared, other's didn't care.
"No one's going to give you anything if you keep it up," he said furiously. "Where your going, you'll be buried so deep underground, clothes will be as a distant dream to you."
"Yeah, that's all i need, a bunch of ugly, horny old men claiming to do research just poke at me while i'm naked. God you humans are fucked up, you know that?" Now everyone glared at her.
A few of us chuckled at that, she always did know how to keep her cool in situations like this, and even make it seemingly funny. Though mostly just because she was mouthy and enjoyed pissing people off.
"Want to see a cool trick?" she asked tilting her head at the surrounding men.
"Uh-oh," i said warily, i knew that look. She was going to do something stupid.
None of them said anything, but watched her suspiciously, and they all backed up a foot, not that, that would make much of a difference. She was tricky that way. She'll make you think you were steps ahead, but really your three steps backwards.
"I bet i can set fire to everyone here without needing to move an inch," she said grinning darkly.
"You a werewolf, nice try," one of them scoffed.
"Oh baby, i'm much more then that," she said a sort of dark look in her eyes.
"Luna no," i hissed, loud enough for her to hear. She paused, tilting her head, "your not killing a bunch of humans. Just find out where there taking you and we'll bust you out."
"Maybe some other time," she said reluctantly.
"Your sisters kind of nuts," Jake muttered and i nodded. She was.
"So Dr. Jekyll, where are you taking little ol' me anywho?" she asked curiously, turning to give a full view of her naked body. Smooth, i thought rolling my eyes.
"It's Dr. Burkov," he said a little wide eyed. "A research facility, it doesn't matter where."
"But it's clearly in Russia, i mean, your all obviously Russian, you just reek of it. That feeling to dominate and control everything, fighting to be on top in a world that we own and not you. That's why you showed up here, is it not? You want more power?"
"You own the world do you?" one of them said amused.
"Of course, your at the bottom of the food chain, the only reason you succeeded in capturing all of us is numbers. You also have the advantage of being overlooked because your human. Now in a fair fight, no weapons, and even in my own human form, i could take on a dozen of you without breaking a sweat. So yes, between my species and yours, your nothing but strength and numbers."
She said it so logically, that it stumped a few of them. She was right though.
"I sincerely doubt your the superior species. We've evolved over thousands of years, look at you, far and few, were also the most intelligent," the Doctor said as if she were wrong.
"We dont need to evolve anymore then we already have. How much stronger do we need to get? And we do over time, but we understand the importance of this earth, unlike you. You may have intelligence, but things your just learning today, we learned a hundreds of years ago. Knowledge is power Dr. Burkov and the things i know, you could never dream of."
"Are you saying your over a hundred years old?" he asked skeptically.
"Wouldn't you like to know," she said grinning now.
"The chopter is ready," a man said to the commanding officer. He nodded and then they ordered her to get into the giant box.
"You could say please you know, and im not getting into that thing without something to wear," she said darkly. Someone through what looked like hospital scrubs at her and she pulled them on and then climbed up onto the top of the crate.
It opened up and she dropped down into it, and then i heard her laugh a little from inside, i could hear say something along the lines of, "ha! Your ass got kidnapped too!"
We watched as the helicopter lowered to the crate and then it was attached by several of the soldiers. I kept watching the C.O though, hoping he would drop some hint other then Russia. "We'll release a sedative into the filtering system of the crate, hopefully put them down until we get them locked up at the facility."
"How many more do we need?"
"We have enough for now. If the treatment fails, we may have to return for others," treatment of what?
The helicopter was gone, and slowly they packed up. "Come on, we need more intel," i said to the group, dropping down into the field and then rushing towards the last car. It left and then i broke through the trees and ran straight for the road.
As the last one began to pass i stood in front of it and as it got to me, i slammed my hands into the edge of the hood and it flipped over me. "Bella!" Jake said appalled.
"When a bunch of humans threaten to do experiments on my sister and mate, i tend react badly," i said coldly, and moved to the upside down truck. Two soldiers crawled out and i knocked both of them out.
"Help me get them back to the house, and get rid of this," i said gesturing at the truck.
"What are you planning on doing with them?" Seth asked nervously.
"I told you, i need more intel."
"Your not going to torture them are you?" Adam asked frowning.
"Only if they dont tell me what i want to know," i said shrugging. They shared uneasy looks, but did as i said. I knew Sam wouldn't disagree, he kind of sadistic if you ask me. Not to mention Paul was his responsibility and it was his job to get him back.
Luna POV
"Oh great it's you," Rosalie said sarcastically as i dropped into the box.
"I know, bet your glad im here to save the day huh?" i said smirking. She just rolled her eyes and i turned to the cases holding Paul and someone else.
"What's your name?" i asked the girl, she couldn't have been more then eleven or twelve. She was a shifter? Weird.
"Cassie," she said quietly, bottom lip trembling slightly.
"Well Cassie my name is Luna," i said moving towards her cage.
"Pretty name," she said eyes watering a little. "i want to go home."
"Me too," i said looking at her lock. "Want to tell me how you managed to end up in here?"
"I got lost, my stupid brother wanted to go find the monsters that Uncle Charlie was talking about. Then i couldn't find him and i got mad."
"Anger triggers the change," Edward said, coming to stand next to me.
"Do you really think there monsters Cassie?" i asked curiously, looking for something to open the key with.
"No, not really, nothing wrong with being different," she said hesitantly. "Can i come out of here?"
"I'm trying," i looked at Alice and Rosalie, "either of you wearing a push up bra?"
"Why?" Alice asked confused.
"i need the underwire, and a ring," i added thoughtfully. I could make some kind of lock picking thing. Can't be so hard right?
"No," Rosalie said glaring.
"Either give it to me or i'll take it, your choice," i said coldly. She just glared, but unclipped her bra and tossed it at me without actually having to remove her shirt. Edward held out a hand at Alice and she glared, but took her wedding band off.
I foguth with the wire for a moment, before managing to hook the ring into it tightly enough without it moving at all. I set to work trying to unlock the door and after about an hour of cursing and frustration i finally got it.
She jumped out, tackling me in a surprising hug, "thank you!"
"No problem, they left clothes over there, they might be big on you, but it beats sitting around in your birthday suit," then i started to unlock Paul's cage.
"So why weren't you dosed up full of morphine?" Edward inquired, sitting down next to Cassie who was sitting beside me.
"They did, they didn't use enough i guess. I was only out for a few minutes, long enough to get me back into the field. The second time, it just burned up inside of me, it was pointless."
"I dont think that's a good thing," Alice said from across the room.
"Why?" i asked skeptically.
"Because if there moving us to a facility full of doctors and scientists, that means experiments. Now, i dont know about you, but the last i checked, crap like that hurts," i froze, thinking that over. Crap, she was right.
"Whatever, worry about that later," i muttered, and then with a click Paul was free. But he was sleeping soundly.
I shook my head at him and then shook him lightly. "Paul," i saidn a sing song kind of voice. He snored a little and Cassie giggled. i smiled and then shook him some more. "Paul," i said a little louder. "Damn it Paul, wake up!" i shouted at him and he startled awake, jumping up and then hitting his head hard.
Cassie burst out laughing again and i chuckled. He looked around confused, and then turned to me. "I have no idea," i said shrugging and leanaing back, i nodded at the small pile of clothes in the corner and he shifted back, dressing quickly.
He gave me a hug and a light kiss and i explained to him what's happened while he was out. We all sat around theorizing for the next little while. Cassie fell asleep with her head in my lap as i ran my hands through her hair soothingly. Paul just watched me in a sort of amused fascinated way.
Then the crate stopped shaking and we were set down on a hard surface. We all stood and i kept Cassie behind me once i woke her up. The door opened.
