Eighty-Two: Back to the Drawing Board

All of us guys are sitting in the living room over at Jason and Marus’s house. We have made this our
new meeting area since it is more private than the rec room. We still use the rec room for certain talks
but not this one. No one had said anything for the past half an hour. Not since the animals came back
in a rush and basically dragged Chris and Rye off with them. All five of them came back with Chris and
Rye. Dimitri was also with them. They all had a sullen and pissed-off look to them. Not only was it us in
the room, but Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades were also there. I knew it was bad when they appeared.
They usually didn’t get involved unless asked. So we all knew something was up.
“What happened?” Kaleb asked.
Finally, someone broke the silence. We all looked at Chris, Rye, and Dimitri. I could tell that they were
still absorbing the information themselves.
“They found Penthesilea and Phlegyas.” Chris says.
“Good, now what is the plan?” I ask.
“They are dead.” Rye states.
What, how in the hell does this happen? Aren’t they immortal? Well, that was not what I was expecting
them to tell us.

explains.
“We think the werebears attacked them, but we don’t know why,” Dimitri replies.
We all sit there in shock. Now that Penthesilea and Phlegyas were dead, we only have to worry about
the werebears.
“Penthesilea and Phlegyas weren’t the masterminds behind the original plot. There was someone else
that was controlling them. We just haven’t found out who that is yet. We know for sure it is not a god or
a supernatural being.” Zeus adds.
Well, ok, that rules out a large number of people. Who could be the mastermind then?
“We think it has to be an angel or a demon. Possibly even one of each working together. They are the
only beings that have access to both gods and can blend in down here with supernatural beings and
humans.
The room goes quiet again. None of us knows what to say.
“Why would an angel work with a demon to create beings that they can’t even control?” Jason asks.
“I don’t think they realized what would happen when they mixed all of our blood together. Plus, once
Dimitri and Dominick added everything else it just made it more powerful. I think they thought it would
be an easily manipulated child that they could use to overpower us.” Hades admits.
I hear a few people laugh at this. I have to laugh as well. I am sure whoever came up with this plan
didn’t count on Dimitri and Dominick. I can guarantee they didn’t count on what would come from their
little science project. That backfired on them royally. They created three beings, two beings that are so
powerful no one can control them. I can tell we are all trying to come to terms with the new information.
This has really thrown a curveball into our plans. We still have to find the werebears. The animals are
still on the hunt for them. We all stand up and head back to the packhouse. We left all the girls
together. As we get closer, we hear laughter. Ok, so not so strange to hear from a house full of women.
This laughter, however, sounds particularly evil, and we hear a very unfamiliar scream of pain. We all
take off running and follow the screaming around back. The sight before was not what I was expecting.
Mykenzie and Kylani are sitting up in a high tree on thick branches. I see them raise and lower their
hands and follow the movement when I hear a scream. I look down and see two guys getting dunked
and pulled back up out of the pool. I look to my left a bit and see two other guys tied to a pole with fire
circling them.
“WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GOING ON?” I yell.
“Oh hey, babe,” Mykayla says.
She gives me a smile, and I raise one of my eyebrows at her.
“We found these four fucks slinking around the packhouse. I can tell they are not from this pack, but
they also don’t smell like rogues. So we decided to do some interrogating.” Kylani replies with an evil
smile.
I notice Kaleb out of the corner of my eye. All the colour has drained from his face, and he looks like he
is going to have a heart attack.
“Ok, that is fine, but can you do your interrogating from the ground.” Kaleb gasps out.
I see her look at him, and she is immediately in front of him, worried. She asks him what is wrong.
“Seriously, you almost gave me a heart attack when I saw you in that tree. Gorgeous you are four
months pregnant please stay on the ground.” He tells her.
I almost laugh out loud. I know her worries, but sometimes I think that he forgets what she can do. I
have no doubt she was perfectly fine in that tree, but I do see his point. I sure as hell don’t want
Mykayla up a tree right now, either. We save the poor guys from the girls but lock them in the cells. I
decide our interrogation can wait till tomorrow. We all go our separate ways for the night.
