Chapter 1520 Beneath the Full Moon
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
Draco and Mila were at Fallholt as they looked around the kingdom.
"Well it's been a long time." Draco said.
"Yeah." Mila nodded. "Say I heard you and Maria have been hanging out a lot."
"Hmmm." he looks. "Oh yeah, we've been getting along."
Draco and Maria have been getting close and she's been very happy being with the young Kuzunoha.
They went inside of the city and they went to the bar to get see who is the one they're looking for. Draco then saw a girl wearing the same armor as Samantha at a table as she looked nervous.
"So your the one that called for help?" Draco goes up to her with Mila.
She got surprised and nodded. "I'm Quinn, your the one that saved the princess."
"Well yes, it seems you were in need of help." Draco said.
"Princess Anja heard of my trouble and she told me that theres someone that could help in Mor. So I sent that request." Quinn explained.
Draco thinks about her and Anja has been alone ever since her sister vanished and liked being with him. Maybe he'll visit her soon.
"What seems to be the problem?" Mila said.
"Theres been many people vanishing, mostly just women." Quinn said.
"That's strange." Draco said.
"Yes, I asked for help since not even Samantha can help." She said.
"I see, could it be a vampire?" Mila said.
"Hmm, after the lamia incident, I think theres more." Draco said.
"Really?" Mila looks at him.
"Think about it, theres a lot of creatures in the world. So maybe theres another race." He said.
"I see, i'll be joining you as we check for clues." Quinn said.
"Okay, let's go." Draco said.
He leads the girls outside as they looked around, Mila and Quinn asked around while Draco took a different approach and looks around. He then noticed white fur on the ground.
"Wait a minute, this is wolf fur." He picks it up.
Wolves are not something that comes here so he might have an idea.
Quinn and Mila came with the former saying: "We got many info, but it seems the times are different for some instead of night."
"I don't think this is a vampire problem." Draco said surprising them.
"Then what is it?" Mila said.
"Wolf." He shows the fur.
"Wolf? Like the Lycanthrope?" Quinn said.
"Yes, this is a lycanthrope problem, they are beasts that can appear at any time, so it seems that they came here and kidnapped those girls." He said.
"It would make sense considering the time." Mila said. "Your a great detective."
"Yes." Quinn was amazed at Draco.
"It's nothing much, you gotta find traces of the criminal. I learned it from a friend." He remembers how Zack investigates.
"So we will have to go to they're camp." Quinn said.
"Do you know where it is?" Draco asked.
"Yes, Samantha told us the location in case they attack." Quinn nodded.
"Well let's go." He said.
"Always the one to deal with it." Mila smiles.
"Somemone has to."
The trio went to the forest and they looked around, then at a path was two Lycanthrope women, they're wearing a top and makeshift skirt with rags. Honestly it's like a ragged version of the elves like Nowa and Alleyne as they didn't put too much thought on it.
"Who goes there?" One of them said.
"We just came to talk to your leader." Draco said.
"Yes, could we pass." Quinn said.
"Ha, only if you beat us." They got ready.
That surprises the girls but Draco goes into a stance, the Lycanthropes attacked but he grabs they're arms surprising them, then he throws them to the side.
"Wow." Quinn was amazed.
"You've haven't seen anything. Draco is one of the best fighters i've ever seen." Mila smirks.
They attacked again but he strikes at they're pressure points knocking them down, one of them grunted.
"Well that's pretty good, okay you can go." She smiles.
They entered and they saw the village filled with female Lycanthropes only, it seems theres not a single male.
"I see, they repopulate by turning others into one of them, males can only be made by another male." He mutters.
"Well let's look for where she might be." Mila said.
They walked down a path with many doing they're own business, some noticed them and they were curious.
A small wolf girl watches and sees them, she has snow white hair and smiles. "Hey, i'm Snow."
"Oh hey." Draco said.
"Hey there." Mila waves.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"We're just going to see your leader." Quinn said.
"Oh she lives there." She points at a small building made of wood.
"Well thanks." Draco said.
The group went forward and the little girl stared at Draco feeling something different about him. 'He's got the same scent of..'
They entered the building, the woman was tan, wearing a purple version of the clothing with black fur and long hair.
"Well welcome." She smiles.
"So your the queen." Mila said.
"That's right, i'm Sophia. The ruler here." She said.
"Are you the one responsible for the kidnappings?" Quinn said.
"Oh that, well I got new members." She said.
"So they were turned into Lycanthropes." Draco said. "For what reason?"
"To take back our land! Fallholt was belt from the remains of our home. And we shall attack." Sophia said.
"What?" The girls said.
"It's our right. Plus I do find your houses pretty confy and warm. So we'll keep that the same." Sophia smiles.
"Do you think you can get away with that?" Mila said.
"Yes, the king will fight back." Quinn said.
"I don't care, they will pay, maybe you both would like to become Lycanthropes." Sophia sugged.
"What?" Quinn blushes.
Mila blushed at the thought and Draco facepalms. 'What's with fetishes.'
"No they will not!" Draco said.
"Well too bad, but..." Sophia saw her pack come out. "We'll let you leave and tell the king, but we will come at night."
Draco sees theres too many and he takes the girls with him.
"I'm sorry, if only-" Quinn started.
"Stop it, it's not your fault." Draco said.
"He's right. We'll stop them." Mila smiles.
Quinn looks at them and smiles too. "Thank you."
They arrived back at the kingdom and warned the king about what will happen, so his guards were all ready.
They were out at the gate waiting, Draco stares into the distance as the moon rises up. "They're coming."
Samantha was near him. "How do you know?"
She then heard a howl surprising her and Draco said: "I know."
The Lycanthropes came and they attacked the guards making them battle them, Sophia came.
"Well it's time for us to rule." She grins.
Three attacked Draco and he fights them off since it seems they're ganging up on him. Mila then sees the queen facing her.
"I took some of my best to face him, so it's just us." Sophia said.
Mila got ready and the two fight, Sophia claws at her and Mila dodges, she then uses a hamon kick hitting the wolf.
"Not bad, but it doesn't work." Sophia said.
Mila frowns. 'Hamon can only do so much.'
They kept fighting and Mila throws silver daggers making her grunt.
"Silver!" She said.
"Yeah, your weakness." Mila said.
The two kept fighting as the Lycanthropes pushed Draco inside a building, they held him down but then he takes out a wolf charm, he roars making them surprised.
The Lycanthropes got sent out and they looked, Draco came out in his werewolf form and he howls.
"A... A... A werewolf?" Sophia was stunned.
Many gasped since one hasn't been seen in years and he growls, they didn't know it was Draco so he charges at them attacking many of the girls.
"Sophia, we're losing!" One said.
"No." She frowns.
Many held on to Draco as he roars shaking them off, some were blushing being near the true mate.
"Surrender now." Mila said.
"No, we can't! Do you think the king will let us live!" Sophia said.
"If you care about them, then give up." Mila said.
Sophia looks at them and looks down. "Stand down!"
The Lycanthropes stopped as they were taken away, Draco jumps away and a clone of him came out that looked normal.
"We won." He said.
"Yeah." Mila nodded.
The Lycanthropes were arrested and the king punished Sophia, but he was fair and banished her away from her people, with Quinn being selected to be the leader as a representitive.
Draco vouched to take Sophia under his care since he told them of her potential for help, the king allowed since he trusted him.
Then he and Sophia went out and she said: "Well thanks."
"Your welcome." He said.
"Also... I know that werewolf is you." She smirks.
"What?" He looks back.
"I know the scent. I might not be able to rule my people, but I can start a family... My mate." She blushes.
He frowns since now she likes him. 'Just great.'
Now he has to deal with Sophia wanting to marry him and get kids, he just had to use his werewolf form.
"Also I think the girls liked you too." Sophia said and he sighs.
"As Primal would say..." He mutters. "Well, that's just prime."
Note: Draco dealt with Lycanthropes as they were different so he had to use something else which resulted in the secret use of his werewolf form, but now Sophia likes him.
