Chapter 395 - Never again
The howling roars and cries had stopped, and finally, Ray was able to uncover his ears. He looked around the room, and it looked like he wasn't the only one that had stopped moving.
The cry's seemed to have frozen everyone in place, but it was only moments after, that the fighting started again, as the sound of swords clanging against swords started.
"I have to help Katy and the others first," Ray said. "They look to be in the most trouble."
Steven stood there, with newfound energy, it has been a long time since he had felt this powerful before. The cry of an alpha. During his time in the other werewolf camp, he had experienced this a few times while fighting. An alpha wolf was able to power up the werewolves around him, giving them a newfound strength.
The wounds that had been dealt to him from the other wolves, started to heal. If he had incredible healing speed before, this looked now almost unnatural.
The problem was, he wasn't the only one that had powered up, so had the other five that were fighting him just moments ago. He readied himself, to go through a battle of hell. He still wasn't committed to hurting his fellow brothers, but seeing Jack react like that on stage while having Rachel held in his hands. It was clear it wasn't a good sign.
He could no longer be the nice guy he usuelly was. With his determination, he was ready to strike back.
"Come on!" Steven managed to growl out through his snout. If one was to concentrate, perhaps they could tell what he was saying. It was proof he had a lot more practice when it came to being a werewolf then Jack had.
But, something unexpected had happened. Instead of attacking him, the five werewolves all turned around. They immediately started to go to the aid of Katy and the others fighting. They swung and clashed, tearing of the yellow pieces of armour with a single swing. Their attacks were more powerful compared to before.
With the yellow armour destroyed, the knights were not getting back up again.
When looking closely, Steve noticed, the slave seal that had been cast on them, it was no longer there. The roar of the alpha had given them enough strength to break the seal.
The tide had turned, and even the kids who had been staying at the back joined in on the fight.
On stage, Jack carefully laid Rachel down on the floor, from behind, the final guard Captian came charging in. Without even looking at him when he was in range. Jack twisted his body and gave a large swipe. With a single hand, a large wound appeared across his chest as he went flying through the air and into the wall.
The captain, would not be getting up anymore.
His father, who was still on the stage on the floor started to scurry his feat, looking around trying to grab anything as a weapon, but he couldn't find anything.
"Jane, come here, help me!" Russell said, calling out for his dear wife. But she had long already left out of the back entrance with a few others.
"You can't kill your father, can you. You will truly be a monster." Russell said as Jack continued to walk towards him.
"Look, I'll give you anything, we can rule this town together. You can have all the wealth you want. I'll even stop selling wolves, we'll just go into human sla…" Before he could finish his last words. Jack had made a single swipe towards his father's neck, and shortly after blood started to flow before collapsing to his death.
The fight in the room was now quickly coming to an end, as they were able to turn the tides, and Jack had cancelled his transformation to hurry back to Rachel.
"Ray, please come quickly!" Jack cried, and Ray in nearly an instant was by Jack's side. The two of them looked at Rachel's body on the stage. The sword impaled inside her.
"Can you save her?" Jack asked.
Ray placed his hands on top of her body near the wound. He started to provide her with all the mana he could. At the same time, he tried to activate the cells in her body, allowing her to heal. However, everything he was doing had no effect. Ray continued to try, thinking of everything he could, and now he was starting to feel weak for how much mana he had used.
Tears were flowing down from Jack's eyes and from the corner of his eyes, he could see this. For whatever reason, he did not know, but a massive pain stung in his heart when he saw Jack like this.
Ray tired, and tired again, but still, nothing seemed to be working.
"It's okay, Ray, that's enough," Jack said. "Let her rest in peace."
He lifted his hands of Rachel body, and in truth, Ray knew the moment he touched Rachel she was already gone. Even as a Dragon, Ray could do many things with his magic. His skills currently were lacking compared to back then, but there was one thing that was never possible. He couldn't bring back the dead.
It was a lost cause the second he touched her, but it pained him not to see Rachel's death, but Jack so upset.
"I'm sorry Jack, If I only I stayed here, maybe I could have done…"
"Enough, Ray." Jack snapped. "No way in hell is any of this your fault. Remember you weren't even meant to be here in the first place. I was the one that asked you to come to Zrey with me."
He stood up with Rachel In his hands and walked to the front of the stage. The werewolves started to howl at there fellow brethren that had died.
Claire and Zinc couldn't get up from thier knees, and the two kids behind them didn't fully understand what was happening.
"The town of Zrey is no longer." Said Jack. "Never shall thier be an auction taking place here again. Rachel's death was not in vain. Today because of her a good cause had happened, and I pledge that I will never allow another life like hers to be taken again."
