HOWLER

Chapter 34: Jupiter's code

'Awaken Dusk Hunt and hail your new leader'

The ground shook as loud growls erupt from all directions. My eyes turn behind me and to the side. Some men came out of some of the pack houses. When I turn toward the woods, hundreds of eyes narrow at me. Fog rolls in and covered the ground with a grey sheet of nothingness.

By this times everyone in the pack was look out of their windows.

"I will no longer tolerate the leash that these leaders have put on me. I am never going to forget the sensation of my first kill and I enjoyed it. I refuse to be lead by someone who lies to his own people and brings humans to our pack! Join me and let's rule like want to and destroy our enemies".

I back away quickly, searching for Alice, Steven and everyone else.

'D..a...da...', the mindlink is still full of static that the words are barely audible.

A shriek freezes my thoughts, emotions and movements. My heart pounds against my chest as this scream process through my brain and my legs begin to carry me away toward it. The scream sent everything to hell.

"This is war!", Michael shouts. His fangs grow longer as his eyes vividly lose their color and change to red.

"War!", loud deep voices shout behind him and all direction.

Bones crack.

Daniel's POV

"Come out from wherever you are Steven", Michael tauntingly yells. His eyes dig hole into me as I stare back, matching his intensity. Suddenly a pain-filled yell startles me enough to capture my glance. The second my eyes look away, the dust from the ground puffs up and Michael punches my face. His hit causes me to stumble back and my hand rubs over the instant bruise forming.

"Attack", the crowd surrounding the pack roars as they begin to shift into their true selves. Michael immediately chooses to take this to his advantage when he kicks my stomach and manages to knock down. Bones crack and shift around me as I desperately try to look around.

The pain in my stomach aches as I lay on the ground. Growls rule over the pack like a mist of fog. Large wolves run into houses of the other pack members and soon loud thumps begin to echo into my ears. Left and right bodies slam violently against the walls with loud thumps.

'Protect the women and pups! Men get them out of here!', Steven commands before my body slides on the dirt.

"You're such a dweeb", Michael says approaching my body. All around me glass cracks and many crashes echo everywhere. My hand grips tightly as I quickly jump up. Michael charges at me. His small size ,compared to me at least, flashes quickly in front of me before I dodge his quick punches.

A high pitched scream distracts me as my eyes look in it's direction. But the moment my eyes look away. Michael punches my jaw.

"Agh!", I yell out of pain. The punch traps my tongue between my teeth. The metallic ooze flows in my mouth before a blurry figure flies in front of me.

"MMMMMIIICCCHHAAEEELLL hey man! How are you?", Steven says to comfortably before he grabs the boy and throws him down against the floor. Michael flips over and stares at Steven furiously.

"You darn...Stupid! Ugh!", he growls as his eyes go black.

"Daniel don't just stand there like a dead rabbit. Make yourself useful and help everyone fend off these people I want to assure we don't tell our enemies what our next moves are so help them get our loyals', Steven commands me before he charges at Michael at incredible speed.
