Glad you liked the last chapter, but I'm sorry to say that this is a short chapter only because it's with the wolves' involvement. The leader's rather testy, but he's an excellent strategist; especially since Caius is being the main target here.

Enjoy & leave a good review!

Russian Nuclear Plant:

A band of men were guarding the gates just a couple of yards away from the old abandoned nuclear plant just outside a small town. Some were feeding the new arrivals, others were training, and some were busy with the leader of the pack.

"Master, we've recruited at least twenty other allies. We are progressing greatly…" a man with a square-like face and straggly beard spoke to a man with sleek black hair that went to his shoulders, yellow eyes, bulky muscles, and a slight mustache under his nose from a recent shave.

"Excellent, continue training the new recruits we'll need as many numbers as possible against this enemy."

"Yes sir." The man left and another entered.

"My lord, we have new information on the Volturi." The leader turned and smirked slightly.

"I'm guessing they've gotten assistance from the other covens?"

"Yes, they've recruited most of the others; as for the Romanian our spy tells us he's been locked up. Several other covens are there but the gifted ones are being kept in the palace. The rest are in camps outside the city."

"And the wives?"

"Heavily guarded sir. We won't be able to get to them without being tracked by that guard Demetri."

"I know, that's why we're going with a new strategy."

"Sir?"

"Instead of abducting the wives and using them as bait, we will make our way into the city but leave the humans be. Our men will hold off the other vampires while I make my way into the palace and take on Caius, once he's dead I will make the other vampires surrender and we will start a new era."

"With all due respect sir, there are many gifted vampires in that area, including one besides Aro who can read minds from a distance. The others include one with the illusion of pain, sensory perception, future sight, emotion manipulation, two shields, and many more." The other man thought for a second, and then turned to a portrait on the wall of his fortress.

"Then tell our spy to keep an eye on the vampires for the time being, if he has any information that can help us get the greater advantage he is to report back immediately."

"Yes Lord Andover." The man bowed and left the room. The wolf named Andover touched the portrait of the pack's former leader Radovan, and sighed deeply.

"Oh my lord, for so many centuries I've wanted to end Caius's life the way he ended yours and our comrades; I had planned on taking his life and his entire coven, but then I realized killing others not responsible for this is ridiculous. You taught me to be the better man, so I will take out all those close to Caius, to make him suffer the way I have. We will have our revenge, no matter what it costs us, I will avenge my friends and fallen."

"My lord, there's a problem with one of the recruits! He's attacking the other members and he wants more!" Andover turned to see his captain panting slightly and grabbed a bottle containing a red liquid inside. He made his way to the court and saw a man in his mid-thirties about to pounce onto another about 20 years old, the rest were slightly bruised and scarred, but nothing too serious.

"You there, stand down." He stated calmly. The man turned and his eyes were bloodshot, Andover could hear his pulse racing fast and he was sweating heavily from head to toe.

"M-More…w-want more…need…I-I-I need more…" he was talking and stammering so low it was hard to hear almost.

"We tried calming him sir but he's too into it, not even the newer recruits could hold him."

"It's fine captain, bring him here." The captain took the man by his arm and led him right in front of Andover. "You need to stop relying on this power, it does last a good while but it's only temporary. You have to be better about this, do not…I repeat…do not rely on this blood!" the man shrunk at those words, and then bowed.

"F-Forgive me…I-I just need a fix…please sir…please…" Andover took the cap off the bottle and handed it to the man. He gulped it down and wiped his mouth once done. "Thank you sir…thank you."

"You're welcome, but remember what I said. Do not rely on this blood for power, use your newfound abilities as your main source. Understand men?"

"Sir yes sir!" the recruits saluted their lord and Andover turned to his captain.

"Give the others a little more, and continue the training."

"Yes sir." Andover walked into his fortress again, and looked back at the portrait. His eyes began to glow and his teeth turned into fangs.

"Soon brother, we shall have our revenge very soon." He gave off a loud howl at the sky, and the sun began to set in the background.

I'm sorry it's so short but I did warn you all. Next chapter goes inside the Volturi palace where Aro continues pondering why Nekolai looked so familiar to him, and discusses things with the others. It will be a lot longer I promise you that.

Review please!

Again sorry for the shortness!
