Cavril's forces entered the Bykort region, while Bykort's forces were on standby to receive the attack. One by one they turned into big wolves and attacked each other. All of Bykort's borders were guarded by Lykort's forces. The Lykort army attacked from all directions. Roger smiled and turned himself into a wolf. He ran away pretty fast away from the fight. Ian, Ryan and Aaron run into Bykort's territory after they turn into wolves. Sometimes they are in the field. But with cooperation they can get through it.
'Where are we going now? Special prison?' ask Ian.
'I think it's free that we're there. I'm sure they weren't there.'
'How can you be sure Aaron?'
'Because it's too obvious, right? Makes it easy for us to find them.'
'But we can't take any chances.'
'Ryan's right, you better not take any chances. How many prisons are there?"
'Two. Come on, I'll show you the way.'
Aaron ran first, followed by Ian and Ryan. They're heading for the first special prison. The prison was once held by Aaron before. Some wolves attacked them but they could pass through them easily.
It wasn't long before they got him that special prison. They stopped at the entrance. No one is watching.
'I don't feel Kei's presence here.'
'I also. Doesn't feel alpha Zach.'
'But we still have to look for him.'
Ian turns into a human, followed by Aaron and Ryan. They're looking all over the corner of the prison.
Meanwhile...
"Mr Cavril.."
"Alpha Edward's... I didn't think you were coming here. It should be your army" Cavril said.
"It's okay Cavril. I'll just monitor. It's not good to just wait." said Edward. "Are you not fighting, sir?"
"I'm soon watching the situation."
"Is something wrong?"
"Looks. Look at them." Cavril pointed to several people gathered not far from the battlefield.
"What's wrong with them? Aren't they just ordinary people? We've agreed not to attack ordinary citizens."
"I know alpha. But not all of them are citizens, alpha. You see that group of guys next to them?" ask Cavril. Edward nodded. "They are not ordinary citizens. They seem to be able to fight and are used to fighting. I guess, they're warriors."
"Warriors? But what are they pretending to be ordinary citizens for?"
"I don't know. But it looks like they're waiting."
"waiting? Waiting what?"
"I don't know alpha. And look at those who fight. Their movements seem to buy time. They keep avoiding attacks. Not attack. It's weird."
"You mean this is all a trap?"
"Maybe, I don't know for sure. I don't feel good about this."
"But we have more than enough troops to defeat Bykort."
"Yes, you're right. Maybe it's just my feeling."
"Maybe."
Cavril. He kept thinking there was something wrong with this battle.
Meanwhile, the beta..
"How's it?" ask Ryan.
"Nothing." jawan Aaron.
"I am too." Ian also answered.
"Where then?" Ryan snorted in annoyance. "We don't have much time."
"We went to another special prison. Show me Aaron's way."
Aaron ran out of goa. But his steps suddenly stopped at the mouth of the goa. He also stops Ian and Ryan and invites them into hiding.
"What's up Aaron?" ask Ian. Aaron asked Ian to shut up. He put his index finger in his mouth and looked outside the cave. Ian and Ryan looked out of the cave.
"They're warriors from the MoonGoddes temple" Aaron said
"Temple? What are they here for?" ask Ian.
"It looks like it's helping alpha Roger."
"How do they know alpha Roger?"
"I don't know Ian. But this is very dangerous."
"Wait first. What's the matter? A temple? The warrior?"
"There is a temple, named Moongoddess temple. There are the secrets of the werewolf. But the problem isn't that. The ones guarding the temple were the extremely powerful warriors. His strength is equivalent to that of the alpha. They're very hard to beat, Ryan. One is hard especially if we have to defeat a dozen warriors."
"How can they be so strong?" ask Ryan.
"I'll explain next time. But my father doesn't know about this. How should we?"
"Beta Cavril said, we have to keep looking for Kei no matter what" Aaron said.
"But they can die."
"But Ian, their efforts will be in vain if we fail. We can't help them either. Only your majesty can."
"Aaron's right Ian. We have to keep looking for Kei." Ryan added.
"alright. Let's go."
Ian walked out of goa. He transforms into a wolf and runs towards another special prison led by Aaron. But in the middle of the road his steps stopped.
'Aaron! Ryan! Stop!'
Aaron and Ryan stopped their steps.
'What's up Ian?'
'Roger.' furious Ian.
Ian ran in different directions from the second special prison. A confused Aaron and Ryan come running after Ian.
'And what's wrong?'
'That's Roger. We have to follow him.'
'But why? We have to save Kei and Zach.'
'I know Ryan but it seems like my gut feeling is that Roger is going to take us to Kei and Zach. Look, he's not headed for his castle. He must be heading somewhere else.'
Ian, Aaron and Ryan still keep running after Roger. Roger ran into the forest. All of a sudden..
Bam!!
A wolf stood before them. The wolf was angry. There was a scratch on his face. Ian recognized the wolf. Bruce.
'You go and follow Roger. I'm here to face him.'
'But Ian...'
'Go..!!'
Aaron and Ryan go after Roger back. Ian growled loudly towards Bruce.
'We meet again. What if we continue the fight again?'
'By pleasure.'
****
Aaron and Ryan continued to run deeper and deeper into the forest. This forest was different from the forest. The tree is very lush and untouched so impressed to make the forest so dark and terrible. Roger went into the woods. Aaron hesitates a bit but eventually goes into the woods followed by Ryan. Their distance from Roger began to drift away and eventually disappeared in the dark forest.
'I-this is where?'
'Forest Black. No one wants to enter this forest. This forest is off-limits in Bykort.'
'Why banned?'
'I don't know. Alpha Roger always forbade us all to enter this forest. If anyone violates, he will be punished. Many have died because of it.'
'Only because of entering this forest?'
'so. He's the meanest alpha, you remember?'
'Ah yes, Right. And now we're losing track of him.'
'true.'
They both stopped his steps. Aaron looked around. I don't know why he feels familiar with this forest. Suddenly his eyes fell on the bushes and trees next to him. He came to the tree. There was a scratch on that tree. It's not clear what scratches are but Aaron kind of recognizes those scratches.
'So... Which way are we headed, Aaron?'
Aaron was silent. He still noticed the scratch. He sure knows her. He turned to the bushes next to him. Yeah, he knows her. Aaron ran through the bush.
'Hey! Where are you going?!'
Ryan chased Aaron through the bush. Aaron kept on running regardless of the bush he hit. Until he finally found the path. Aaron stopped his steps.
'What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly running?' ryan asked who was surprised by Aaron's attitude. Aaron was silent. He also recognized the path. How could?
'I'm sorry. I just know this forest.'
'You knew him? Isn't this the forbidden forest?'
'Yeah and I don't know why. But this forest feels familiar to me.'
'Did you ever go into this forest?'
'I guess not. I don't know. I don't remember it. But this feels very... Familiar. This way!'
Aaron is running. He ran through that path. But strangely the path ended up in front of a bush higher than before. Aaron and Ryan looked at each other and agreed. Aaron walked first into the bush, followed by Ryan. They didn't see anything at first and they walked slowly.
Not long after they got to the end of the bush. They're shocked. There were two wolves standing guard there. Suddenly one wolf growled because he saw Aaron and Ryan. The other wolf also growled. The two wolves ran towards Aaron and Ryan. They jump high.
****
Cavril began to fatigue, while his troops were downed. They were facing the Warriors of the temple guards. Cavril's body was full of scratches and bites. Edward watched from a distance. Cavril asked him not to fight. Because Cavril knew Edward had not changed himself into a wolf for a long time and did not fight like a wolf because Edward had been a regular human for too long and lived in the world of ordinary humans.
One of the warrriors advanced and slammed into Cavril's body once more. Cavril is hard to get up. The warrior advanced again. This time for his last attack. The warrior growled softly while staring at Cavril sharply. Edward who saw it started to panic. He doesn't know what to do. He had not changed for a long time and used his wolf muscles. The last time he changed was when he saved Ian. And he did it just to scare the Ordovick army. He did not fight with his wolves. I should how?
The warrior is getting closer. He prepared to jump to attack Cavril. The warrior jumped and..
Bukk!!
The warrior was violently knocked down, yet was still able to get back up. The warrior was slightly surprised to see who was before him. A white-haired wolf and a deep red-eyed wolf, showing who it was from the white wolf.
Edward snarled loudly. He has turned into a wolf.
'Stop this!'
Edward stared at the warrior. Two other warriors came.
'You're.. Alpha.'
'Why did you attack us and help Roger?'
'We're not helping anyone. We're just doing our job as temple guard warriors.'
'Here? In this battleground?!'
'We heard that someone was abusing the sword borrowed by the witch and also we wanted to take the crystal ball.'
'What?' Edward was surprised
'I-it...' Cavril opened his voice. Cavril tried to get up with the rest of his strength. 'That's... A mistake.'
'Really, mistake. The sword was only used on the king Lycanthrope. To control, not to kill. Do you know the danger if the sword was used on a common wolf man? They die. And we heard two werewolves died because of it and we can't tolerate it anymore. Moreover, the crystal also never returned.'
'Then you accuse us of all that? Did Roger tell you?'
'It doesn't matter who told you.'
'Oh, of course, it's important, isn't it Mr Cavril?'
'Sure alpha. Roger just-'
'No problem. We have come only to punish for having misused the goods of the temple and you deserve it.'
The warriors growled and they came forward and attacked Edward. Edward was shocked and overwhelmed by the warriors. The Warrior is also surprised to see Edward's impressed, weak way of fighting. Not like the alpha.
'Stop alpha, you can get hurt.'
'No problem Cavril. Just take care of your wound.'
'No alpha. They're very strong. You haven't fought and-' for a long time'
Uncompleted Cavril spoke, Edward had already jumped high on the front of the warrior. The warrior was prepared to accept Edward's attack. Edward's front legs hit the Warrior's body. They try to bite each other. They rolled on the ground and let each other go. They growled and attacked again. The warrior swiftly slammed into Edward's body with a single head thrust. Edward immediately got up and tried to attack again. Again Edward fell. The Warrior came to Edward, who was still lying on the ground and raised his claws. Edward quickly dodged. The warrior did not give up. He continued to attack Edward aggressively while Edward tried to defend and dodge. Edward tried to dodge again from the warrior's attack but it was too late. He had a deep cut on his back. Edward groans. The rear leg of the warrior kicked Edward hard to hit the wall of the house and the house collapsed instantly. Edward tried to get up slowly.
'That's enough! I beg!!' said Cavril who is now between Edward and the warrior.
'Stop.'
'No going!'
'Warrior it's right, Mr. Cavril, you've been seriously injured. Stay away. Let this be my fight with him.'
'No alpha. I'm not leaving. And please call me with beta Cavril.'
'Please go, Cavril. I will never stop fighting. Go!' go!!'
'I'm sorry alpha but I won't go.'
Edward growled furiously and finally set his foot on the remains of the wall and jumped high past Cavril and landed right in front of Cavril.
'You're an alpha, but you don't look like an alpha. You're weak!'
'Yes, maybe. Because I rarely use my power. But I will never stop fighting.'
'Why?'
'They are innocent. They were only forced to use the sword and believe me, who died because of it, it was indeed worth dying for.'
'D-and that crystal... That was Roger' Cavril added.
'It's impossible, he told me that you kept the crystal.'
'That's right, we did keep it. But we took the crystal from Roger. Since we were certain, he would use the crystal to kill us, the pure descendants. We'll return it after this war is over. Believe.'
The warrior and his two friends fell silent. They seem to think.
'sorry.. But we won't believe it easily. Tell the king to meet us. For we will obey only the word of the king.'
'Roger.'
'What?! How come?'
'You think how this war can start now. Because we want to save our king.'
The warrior fell silent again.
'No, we don't believe it. Let's finish this with a fight.'
The warriors growled and prepared to attack. Lothawat!
****
Aaron and Ryan defeated the two wolves easily. They ran straight to a cave there. But not until they were stopped Roger who stood and waited.
'Sassy! I told you, this is a restricted area.'
'And I told you, I'm no longer a member of your pack anymore.'
'Then you have to face me.'
'So be it.'
Aaron ran towards Roger. Ryan had called Aaron several times but Aaron did not hear. Aaron kept running and attacked Roger. Roger easily slammed into Aaron's body. Aaton immediately got up and attacked back. But again Roger hit it easily. Keep going until Roger gets fed up and attacks Aaron first. Roger kicked and raised his claws. Aaron got hit by all that. He's starting to limp. Roger came to Aaron who was lying weakly on the ground. Ryan came and attacked Roger. Roger was just a little backwards. He growled furiously and directly attacked Ryan aggressively. Ryan stopped Roger's attack. He was hit by all the blows, the claws even he was blown away many times.
Ryan and Aaron were already lying weakly helpless.
'The snot boy wants to fight me? Me?! The greatest alpha in the world?! You fools. You guys should be dead. And I'll make sure the king and alpha snots are dead, too.'
Roger opened his mouth. He's gonna bite Ryan and Aaron.
'Alpha!! No..!!'
Manuel lunged at Roger. Roger was toppled on the ground with Manuel.
'You!! How dare..'
'Sorry, your majesty, but-'
Not finished Manuel speaking, Roger has attacked Manuel blindly. He was furious to learn Manuel was blocking him.
'Alpha... Wait...'
Roger would not listen. He kept attacking Manuel.
'Alpha.. I beg..' Manuel.
Roger finally stopped his attack.
'How dare you'
'Sorry alpha.. Pardon me.. But.. But.. The warriors...'
'Why with them?'
'They.. Have known.. Actually..'
'What?! Damnit damnit!! Where's Bruce?!'
'I don't know alpha, I don't find it.'
'Come with me!!'
Roger ran first. Manuel tried to get up with great difficulty. His body still hurts. He walked slowly past Aaron. He looked at Aaron who was also looking at him.
'Hurry now! Your time is not much said Manuel slowly and then ran after Roger.
'Ryan.. Come.. We gotta.. Quickly..'
Aaron rising. Ryan also got up. They walked closer to Goa. But they were surprised. There's already a dozen werewolves in there and they're all Roger warriors. Not again..
