Returning Home (UK_Guy_RP & Loneiysong)

Jacob looks at her and acknowledging that he will keep the secret she just shared and will ensure that no harm comes to her as she is now his blood. He looks again and a drinks some more his hair raising at the back of his arms and his concern levels increasing as they talk and Nicholas makes his polite but veiled demand.

“our clan contacts are secret, we do business alone and in the dark witrh them, I cannot allow you to have access. “ he says , he knows a refusal is almost impossible but he will stand ground and test to see Nicholas’ next move, outright intimation or trading and cooperation. The Elena speaks and his head turns quickly, he hears your words and looks at Nicholas, his eyes betraying his conflict, “my brother, he came to me 4 months ago, he needed money for his business, he need hep and he looked to me. I could not help him but he said he found another pack member who came on as a partner, a silent one, to help him.” He frowns again and looks at Nicholas, with some fear in his eyes. “it cannot be him, Eli, has no access to the information about Hannah, he does not know who she is… “ He speaks softly to himself, ”I am sure it is coincidence,”
 
She frowned and then looked at him. She looked down at her notes. Elena opened her book and wrote down Eli. The name swirled and she shut her book. She knew it would take a while for the book to process the certain Eli she meant. She pulled her jacket close and looked at them and frowned. "Eli could have been given information from the Brotherhood." She shrugged and looked at him. "Is Eli a registered alpha?" She asked looking at him. She moved closer to her father for warmth. She was starting to get cold. She watched teh two. Elena herself didn't believe in coincidences. Things either were or weren't.

She then felt the book get hot and she opened the page only to have the page being torn out and fell to the ground in a heap of flames. That was odd. That had never happened before.
 
He looked at Elena, seeing her write in her book, unsure what she is doing Nicholas looks at Jacob. "Jacob, the request comes from an old friend of the Clan, I have helped and will help your family and the clan as best I can. It is not lightly I make this request and not without the knowledge of what secrets I am asking you to expose." He takes a step forwards, the physical nature of him seems to widen and strengthen even without any change of form.

It seems that just then as the moment of the clash is about to occur, the page flies from the book in flames. Nicholas looks at her, confused "what does that mean? Elena, what does this mean?" He steps to you quickly, eyes angry and afraid.. Jacob is already moving calling for Simon to bring his car keys.. He shouts you "we need to get to Eli.. now, quickly!" He reaches the car, catching the thrown keys with easy...he looks at the pair looking at the spell book "come on!!"
 
"It means, that Eli has done something bad. Has knowingly done something bad." She whispered her eyes looking into his. "In over his head. He trusts those that would kill." She whispered. She turned gripping the book and then looked at Jacob. Not rushing in a panic. She watched him carefully. Gina shivered as she ran with Simon and got in at his urging. She got in not caring about the two.

Elena looked at him and frowned. "This may or may not be a trick. Jacob has a good aura. But Simon's aura is off." She looked at him and bit her lip and shivered softly and felt as if she was being doused with cold water.
 
Listening to Elena words, he understand the significance of the message the book has given them and that there could be great trouble ahead. He tersely nods to her and move rapidly to the car throwing the side door open wide, “Get in… we need to find Eli before they realise he is discovered.”

Jacob has already gunned the engine and is revving the car, shouting to everyone to get inside, the fear or worry clearly etched on his old face. Simon sits there tensely looking concerned but as to the source of his worry, it seems impossible to tell. Gina besides him, eyes till wide with fear and concern.
 
Elena sighed and moved quickly to them. She got in and frowned. "We do not need to hurry, our enemy is incredibly stupid. They will only know that Eli has been caught when Eli tells them or gives them motion that he has been caught. Then when Eli gets caught, he will probably suffer a great torture at their hands. Because after all, the Brotherhood thought they were dealing with a human and not a werewolf." She leaned into her jacket and frowned looking up.

She bit her lip but was otherwise calm. It was a strange feeling to be calm with the magics she had. She never doubted them or the moon goddess that took care of her and fed her the magic. She looked at Simon and Gina and frowned watching them wishing she could read Simon's aura a little bit better. If only she could, that would make her life a little easier.
 
Jacob pulls off fast, tyres screaming from the sudden acceleration, not really concerned about your observations, he needs to get to his brother first. The car drives fast past the watching car that immediately turns and starts its own pursuit at a more leisurely pace, Jack smokes his cigarette and wonders what on earth is going on…

The car moves fast through traffic and soon turns to the side street, pulling up along the drive of a nice home and two older cars parked outside. Eli and Nicholas are first out and moving with speed to the door, that stands open, as they reach it the smell of blood is overwhelming and Eli gives pause. Nicholas enters and is greeted by a sight; he shifts immediately to his werewolf form, the nails and teeth bared, the living room is horrific. Eli’s family, his two young sons are destroyed on the floor, torn apart. His wife lying in the door way to the kitchen but there are no remains of Eli.
 
Elena winced hearing the screech of tires. She looked up and frowned. She looked up as they parked outside. She watched Jacob and Nick move in. Getting out of the car, she looked inside and saw the blood. She pushed her bag in such a way the purse was behind her back and walked in and moved forward to one of the little boys putting her hand on his forehead and shut her eyes seeing things from his point of view.

"Eli is not here. They traced the last pack to this house, they don't know that Eli is a werewolf. They knew his boys were and their mother tried to keep him safe." She frowned and stood up and glared. "The boys watched their own mother die." She bared her teeth as if she had the ability to turn into a wolf herself.
 
Nicholas turns to Jacob, seeing his face a mixture of horror and anger there as he looks upon his brothers family butchered on the floor, it is a truly horrific scene. the old man's face dark with fury and hurt,as he sees the small forms of the boys, clearly hacked apart in a mad attack of fury and hate. " Jacob, get out of here now..."Nicholas orders the man from the house. Elena can we trace the attackers, is there anything you can do to find these bastards?"

Simon runs up the steps to the house, making a strange keening noise as he sees the first of the devastation within. He sinks to his heels, his hands pressed close to his face, crying and uttering .."not like this , not like this..." Nicholas turns to him, his face a mask of absolute fury and eyes as cold as ice focusing on the young wolf. His hand shots out and grabs the throat of the boy, lifting high and up against the wall, "tell me what you know.... tell me now" the voice almost unrecognisable as human as it growls and rolls the sounds in deep dark threat, no anger pure cold murderous fury is there in his voice.
 
"Yes, I can." She moved around and then moved to the woman and crouched down and held her face and saw teh whole horrific scene play out before her. She shivered and her tongue swelled in her throat. She saw the men and gasped hard. She opened her eyes. She stood up and walked forward and gasped as if she was in a daze. She walked out and looked around breathing.

She saw Simon and Jacob's fight. She then saw Gina run up and began ti snarl at Jacob. "Put him down." She began to ripple. She was threatening to shift. Elena stepped back and felt sommething gurgling up within her. Running to the bush, she collapsed to her knees and got violently sick. Her lunch emptying to the bush and she shivered she was trying to breath. She shivered and bit her lip an whimpered.
 
Nicholas moves to Gina's side and with force pushes her back, his face and muzzle showing her it is not a safe option to shift right now. the looks of Jacob his anger is barely contained and as simon tries to fight the Alpha's strength and pinning of him to the wall. "what did you do?" he snarls again.. simon looking terrified as his own father seeks to kill him if he does not confess "i just sent a text... I was told if anyone from the old country comes here, to let them know.. they are wolves, the eastern pack, they wanted to know if the Europeans were interfering again... not this not this I swear, I didn't know Eli was mixed up in anything... and i didn't say who or where or when"

Nicholas moves Gina to the side as Jacob looks at his son, and deciding what he will do with him. "stay out of the way,girl... dont let this get worse for us all. " he warns her.

MOving to Elena' side he rubs her back and feels her temple as she wretches into the bush.."what was it.. what did you see?" Just then Jack walks in a gun drawn and eyes bright as he looks over the scene with tired and unimpressed eyes..."ok, Nicholas, what was i promised to do if you could not remain inconspicuous?"
 
Gina howled out in pain. Simon was her mate and everythign that was painful for her, she could feel. She sobbed pressing her forehead into the earth crying. She was quickly becoming inconsolable.

Elena's head had dropped down, she was not responding, she was just looking forward. Her lips moved in unintelligible and uncomprehensible phrases. Her eyes began to glaze over when Jack came forward. Her hair and her eyes when totally white mirroring the goddess if she was not the goddess herself. She stood up to her full height and moved forward to Jack and smiled a serene ethereal smile. "Jack, your soul seeks rest, but your body does not allow it, put your gun away son." She whispered adn stroked his face and then moved over to Jacob who still held his son aloft.

"Your boy speaks the truth. He was in no way party to what happened here. Eli's own greed for his own skin pulled him away from my care. He is part of the dark world now. This boy is loyal to you and your pack." She walked in and frowned seeing the death and moved over to the woman and sighed. "I am sorry my daughter." She whispered ass she seperated the brutalized womans legs and reached inside her pussy and pulled out a ring that was left behind and held it in her hands.

"The brotherhood may be traced using this when my daughter who is my worshipper and prophetess is well enough to come back." She then looked at Jacob and simon. "Tend to your dead and make them their final resting place." She turned and began to walk away.
 
Jack stareed at her, in total awe, it wass rare he everr encounteredd beings of greater power than his own andd this was one. he had under estimatedd the human girl, the witch, greatly andd it was incredible as he watchedd and heard the words spoken. he knoew at once to comply as his gun lowewre itself andd he nods in agreement to her words, he does want to leave but he is bound here by duty and deed.

THe words to Jacob, calm him iummediately his grip releasedd Simon drops and moves quickly to comfort his girlfriend. the ring pulled from the lifeless body of the woman, is bloody andd has scraps of meat upon it, her hand coatedd in blood. Nicholass takes the item from his daughterr or whatever stands before him and watches. All the words of comfort and instruction spent, he looks at his child as if expecting her to speak to him also.

"what have you done with her Goddess? wherre is my child your loyal servent when you take her body like this? is she safe?" his concerrn that of both a father and a lover.
 
She smiled and touched Jacks face and blessed him for doing what she told him. She smiled and did the same when Jacob released his son. While she was inside, Gina continued to sob and shut her eyes. She was trembling. Gina was both angry and sad. She leaned into his arms and sobbed still. She wrapped her arms around him tightly and whimpered in his arms. She bit her lips.

She smiled. "She is the goddess, and I am here. That is like trying to differentiate between your wolf and yourself." She moved forward and stroked his face and smiled. "Which was why when you took our virginity, she had to take to the earth." She whispered against his lips and kissed him deeply. "She is greatly spent however, she will need rest to replenish and collect herself." She looked at him and smiled wider.
 
nicholas frowned slightly trying to understand what wass occuring here. this had turnedd about so quickly, Eli's family dead, Eli gone, lies and mistakes being madde and still this didnt seem to be just the brotherhood, Simon thought he was working with Werewolves andd he would never make the mistake of thinking a human was wolf kin, there was the horror of the attacks, the far reaching contacts between new and old worlds. Jack's preence, this was more than old battles something was moving them and making the dance to its own tune here.

He looks at the ring, a simple golden band, bloody and covered in meat.. he pushed it into his pocket for the moment. THen he help Jacob load the bodies into bags and move the car to the rear of the property to move the bodies to a new rest placing
 
Elena sat down in the form of the goddess against a tree and watched them. She watched Gina help the wolves. Keeping a wide birth from Jacob. She looked up at Jack and smiled. "Go on to wherever you call home for now and get some rest. You are tired." She smiled and then pulled her knees up to her chest and watched the wolves go about to their work. She frowned and shivered wondering of Nick would help them all night. The girls exhaustion was spreading through her. Her muscles her eyes. Most of all her eyes. They were crusty and tired.

She looked up and soon stood up and wrapped her arms around her and watched them and began to walk.
 
Nicholas finally completes the task of loadding the bodies into the back of the truck. at times angry this hass happened at others just thankful that it wass not his family that had sufferedf the fate such as this. his leaving those years before had been due to such a risk as well as his calling to be the enforcer and lone wolf. he knew that his move away had protected his family to an extent and allowedd him the freedom to move without fear of reprisal.

He washedd his handds and shifted back to human form, walking over he offered his handd to his daughter and helpedd her, taking her weight to his own and orderedd a cab to take them home/
 
She sighed and sank into his arms. Her hair turning the black punk style that she kept her hair. Tears rolled down her face as she leaned her face against his chest. "I am so sorry daddy. I am so sorry." She wrapped her arms around his neck. She was shaking badly. Even though she was a very powerful, she was still young and had never seen anything like that. She would cry harder, but she was so exhausted and weak. She shivered a bit.

"Daddy." She gripped him tightly. "All that blood. All that hate, and..." She sniffled a bit and shut her eyes tighter.
 
He had forgotten how it felt to be horrified by all this, the scenes like this were so common now for him that he could barely remember them afterwards but seeing such cruelty and horror through her younger innocent eyes reminded him of the world he occupied and the damage he dealt. Even by werewolf standards he was considered dangerous, that was why he was a loner, no pack would trust him enough to let him form a bond and no Alpha would ever give him access to the pack. so he lived for the betterment of their kind and as such had grown accustom to the danger of hunting the enemies of the wolf and those that would seek to do them harm.

He scooped her up in his arms, lifting her as he had done when she was a small child and holding her close. he walked to the cab and silently got in, watching Jacob close the truck tailgate and ready to drive off to the woods where the woman and child would meet the earth in peace. Nicholas had no need to join that task, mourning would be a pack activity and he had more pressing matters to attend to. the lead of the ring, the report back to England and how the brotherhood, normally a marginal threat had suddenly become such a potent force . He felt his pocket and checked, Simon's iPhone was there, too shocked and comforting his girlfriend he had not noticed Nicholas taking it.

The cab drove past the space where Jack had been previously the only evidence were cigarette butts discarded on the floor, he had picked up one of those too, just in case it might prove useful. It turned right and onto the road leading back downtown and the hotel. he stroked Elena's hair as she lay against him and considered the next move.
 
She held him and shut her ye as he got into the cab shaking and shivering. After a while, she relaxed against him and just let silent tears roll down her face as she had no more energy to do much more than that. She watched Simon and Jacob do the work. She swallowed and waited until they got to the hotel. She felt his hand on her hair and looked up at him and pressed her face against his neck. Feeling the gentle thrum of his pulse against his neck. She was exhausted. She had overspent a lot of her magic. She was in a weakened state and very vulnerable.

Elena felt the car pull to a stop and wrapped her arms around her father again knowing he would probably carry her. He would protect her. She inhaled his scent and just felt his power around hiim.
 
He paid the cab driver and lifted her from the backseat, holding her in his arms as he crossed the lobby and into the lift. She felt like a dead weight to him and he held her close, her face turned to his breast. Any looks or comments were immediately silenced by the look he would give the bystander. It was a look of anger and protective love, his daughter in his arms he entered the first lift and summoned the floor. As he did so a keen and very brave man called “Mr Holden, there was a delivery, I took the liberty of having it placed in your room… I hope that was ok” he fails to receive an answer as the doors close and the lift rises.

“not long now my darling..” he whispers, his hand soft on her cheek. The power she channelled today must have exhausted her and all he can feel is the soft breathe on his cheek. He enters his suite and sees the package at his desk. He lays her out on the bed, loosening her clothing and leaves her to recover. His attention on the package as he carefully opens it and examines the contents.
 
Elena stretched on her side and felt her father take off her clothes. He took off her clothes and covered her up. She rolled over onto her side and shut her eyes and fell immediately to sleep. She would need to repair and replenish her mana. Her chest rose and fell with even breaths. She was his, and she loved him, but sadly tonight she would not be able to service him.

Her dreams focused around him.
 
He let her sleep as she needed it clearly, he turned his attention to the package he had been sent. Opening it carefully he looked at the contents checking the items off on the mental list he had made earlier. The police scanner was there as were a number of lock picks and Taser gun. At the bottom were a number of manila folders, the edges marked with coloured tape and case numbers. These were files of murders going back the last three months, he had asked for several by the name of the victim and the contact at the department had also used initiative and sent over several that had similar circumstances of seemed to be related.

He looked at the first case, a wolf known to him and murdered some three months ago, it looked like a simple street mugging that had ended in a gun shot but Nicholas knew that something was off, it was the report that the bullet had been removed by the assailant after the shooting and that traces of silver were in the wound. He read the notes, he knew inter pack rivalry would never stoop to using guns, he read the notes thinking about the circumstances , if it was brotherhood, it was a bold move to hit a pack member and leave the body. He recalled Jacob’s words about the troubles here and how it seemed to be getting worse with pack against pack and now the brotherhood stepping up there attacks. Something felt back, they were being squeezed from all sides and that needed coordination and planning.

He turned over the next file; this one was new to him. Yes she was a young girl, barely 18 and certainly a junior member of the pack, torn to pieces by the railroads tracks and left there, the report was detailed in the wounds caused but then he noticed it stated organs missing were taken with care and precision. This was not feeding he thought, he read for some further hours, his mind racing as conclusions were formed, there was a pattern here just not observable from the angle he was looking at it and certainly orchestrated by a force unseen.
 
After several hours of sleep, she stood up. She yawned and stretched. Moving to her father and lover, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her face against his neck and kissed him. She then looked at the files and tehn sat down beside him as she curled her legs under her. She was naked. She smiled and looked at him.

"What is the next job."

She watched him and smiled wider.
 
“These files are recent murders of the wolves of Jacob’s pack. I had them sent over by a contact I know at the police force. There is no sense to these at all, all made to point one way or the other.” He looks concerned and feels tired, his energy strained by jet lag and the anger and violence at Eli’s house.

He places his hand on the first file, “this is made to look like a killing by another wolf pack, vicious and sustained violence, mutilation of the body and no feeding at all. Organs removed with precision though, it was a good pathologist to spot that. But more importantly, it was not a rival pack, there was no reason to kill this girl, she was young, fertile and unmated. I cannot think of a reason why a pack would kill such a person, it’s not the pack way, take her, forcibly adopt her to the pack and strengthen their own, breed her yes… kill her for no reason… no.”

“This other one is staged to look like brotherhood, but it was planned carefully and the murderer removed the silver bullet. Ok I can buy that from a well organised Brotherhood cell, but they are not that well established here this side of the Atlantic. Ok if it was a European hit team sent over why kill such a low level member, that is a lot of effort to kill one wolf. Plus the brotherhood never leaves bodies, too much evidence and they think like humans, hide the body and then the crime will not be investigated. Leaving it here was a message but not sure what it means. If it was Brotherhood, then we need to find out who instructed them and how it was planned”

He pushes back away from the desk and looks at her directly, “next steps is that we look into this ring you gave me, you told me earlier it would trace the brotherhood who attacked Eli’s family. I hope that it gets me to the right place and we can keep one of them alive long enough to get some answers. How are you feeling now?” he looks concerned the magic and the injuries from earlier are making him concerned he is pushing his daughter too hard in his quest for answers.
