A/N: OKEE DOKES

I want to thank everyone for supporting me!!! Without you guys I wouldn't have made it this far!!!

Peyton POV

(When everyone goes to war)

After they were out of sight I walked back to pack house, everyone filed in and sat down

"Okay everyone! we need to stay strong and hope for the best!"' I yelled out most people nodded and cheered but the rest just stared at the ground, tears sliding down their rosy cheeks.

-Knock knock- We all turned towards the sound, I slowly stood up and walked towards the large wooden frame. Gripping the silver handle the door opened to reveal a frail old man,"Child, do you have room for me?" He said, his voice shaking slightly

"He's a rogue peyton! we can't trust him" One of the women called from the couch, she did have a point. I looked at the old man warily, he seemed harmless enough

"Just for tonight" I told him and backed away for the man to pass through, he smiled and entered

"Peyton, I'm going to take the kids for a walk, our legs are cramping from sitting so we'll be back soon" Laine called out, she grabbed the kids hands and led them towards the door.

"This is your room for the night" I opened the door and walked in, the old man nodded and smiled, "I'll let you rest for a bit, dinner will be ready in a few hours but feel free to walk around if you like"

"Thank you dear Peyton, you're so... Considerate... and stupid" The old man muttered as he slowly paced the room

"Excuse me sir?" I questioned, my body tensed and my mind was fully alert now

"I didn't think the great Leaders' descendant would be so easily fooled..tut tut" He smiled and popped each side of his neck, his eyes glowed a bright red and his body began convulsing. Black smoke filled the room and there was a loud thud, the old man shook and his skin looked like it was being pulled back

"Run child! I'll try to hold him off! Run while you can!!" He screamed in terror, I stared at him in shock

//Laine! Get everyone to the safe house!// I commanded her through the mind link

//Already done! I've sent some fighters up!// she responded

A defeating roar filled the room and pushed everything away from it, the force flung me against the room and my back hit the white wall. Pain filled my body and concentrated on my stomach, I gasped out, my hand automatically clutching my stomach.

I closed my eyes and directed my energy towards my fist, blue flames engulfed my arms and I began attacking him. He was quick and agile, ducking and blocking every attack I made. The flames dimmed as I ran out of energy.

"Now it's my turn" He hissed

He ran forward, his arm reeled back and extended toward me. I quickly dodged to the left but he expected that and punch me in the gut, my stomach swelled with pain.

I stumbled onto the floor, chunks of wood digging into my skin. He appeared right in front of my and suddenly grabbed my throat and lifter me off the floor. I struggled against his hold.

"Did you know your lovely Blake betrayed us? Well, you especially" He questioned with a smirk.

I tried to break free but it was no use, he continued talking,

"He was one of my men.

You see, The great Leader he spoke of, My brother, had killed his parents and wiped our their clan for experimenting with the blood and DNA of werewolves and other creatures. I found him on the streets, dirty and battered, and took him in. I trained him, educated him and even gave him a part of me. He would have been my next vessel had he not been so naive and weak, but, oh well.

But then I came across this old legend and found out about you. With your blood I can do so much more and there will be no need for a vessel! I will have infinite power so therefore you must co-operate with me, Peyton" He ended his speech with a smile

I felt dizzy and my throat burned from the lack of oxygen, I was running out of air and he knew it. He released me from his hold and I fell to the floor with a thud.

My vision spun and I felt heavy and weak, my energy was drained but I forced myself to stand up. To fight him. I staggered towards him and punch him in the gut. Realizing what I was doing he grabbed my arms and flung my over, I landed on my feet and raced towards him, grabbing the bedside and hurtled it across the room in an effort to distract him.

I felt the energy come back once again and adrenalin buzzed through my veins. Using all my force I clocked him in the head and he flew back and hit the wall, not giving him a chance to recuperate I kicked him multiple times in the chest. I felt a newfound power surge through me with every hit I made.

His face was battered and bruised and blood was pouring out from a gash on his right temple. He looked at me and smiled

"Good to see the monster in you is still alive"
