Kara looked over Frit"s shoulder as they walked out the cabin, she saw the fire, and the bodies burning inside it."Don"t look" Koos said next to her, she averted her eyes, somehow listening to this soldier became the best thing she ever felt doing, she could feel how he wanted to keep her from harm"s way, even if it was the sight of something she wouldn"t like. Tears started flowing as they arrived at the pickup. Piet had the medkit ready, Frits placed her on the back seat and cut the ropes tying her hands, she reached up and tore the ducktape off, spitting out the blood and vomit still trapped in her mouth. The three men saw this, and found a new hate for Seth.

"Thank you" She cried "Thank you so much" Kara couldn"t help coughing again, wincing at the pain of her broken ribs.
"Calm down sussa" Piet said wiping the blood of her face "We won"t let that fokker ever touch you again, i promise"
"Go get her some water Frits" Koos said and Frits headed to the back of the pickup.
"Lets go Piet, i want to be out of here before that poes comes back" Koos said walking to the front pa.s.senger door. Piet gave her the wet cloth and closed the door. Frits climbed in opposite to her and handed her a bottle of water as Piet started the pickup and drove off.
Kara took some water in her mouth, rinsed, then spat it out the open window "Who are you three?" She asked, knowing they basically just gave a werewolf and his pack a hiding he"ll never forget.
"Old friends of your mother"s" Koos said.
She worried, this Seth spoke words that sank with her, he was looking for her for a long time now, and he barely had her for a day when these men came around, what"s to say he won"t be p.i.s.sed and still come after her?
"He"s not going to stop, he"s going to come after me again" She cried.
"Don"t worry sussa, we told you, he won"t touch you again, we promise" Koos said, but his words ment nothing to her, Seth was a werewolf, these men are human, they stood no chance.
Piet drove out on the R45 towards main road that headed to Paarl, then joined the N1 leading to the Huguenot tunnel. When they were through on the other side they pulled over and waited. It was about fifteen minuites when Luna pulled in behind them. Kara recognised the car and jumped out, running to it. Luna couldn"t get out quick enough and embraced her daughter.
"Oh Kara! Oh im so happy!" She cried. Sasha also climbed out and embraced her sister. Koos Piet and Frits stood patiently waiting for the three to finish their reunion, then Koos cleared his throat.
"Luna, we"d like to have a word with you?"
Luna nodded "Get in the car you two"
"No, i want Kara to join us" Koos said, she nodded again bringing her daughters with her.
"You"ve got two very beautiful girls Luna, congratulations" Koos started.
"Thank you" She said smiling "Girls, this is Koos, that"s Frits, and he"s Piet. You three, this is Sasha, and you know Kara"
"Nice to meet you girls, now first things first, i want to know from Kara what Seth said to you? Anything out of the ordinary?"
"Well" Kara started "He said, he was looking for me for a long time now, like he knew me"
"Maybe he was looking for you one body at a time" Frits said "You know all Seth"s victims are white haired right?"
"I didn"t realise" Luna said.
"Well, he was desperate, only one of his fourteen victims was a Del Carchetore named Ashton"
"Ashton? He was just a kid" Luna said sadly.
"Thats the thing, hes targeting young people, that"s probably why hes here in Stellenbosch, since most of its inhabitants are students" Koos said.
Luna looked down worried, Koos saw her face.
"Sussa, you remember our little fallout on the yacht? You don"t owe us anything for helping you, when children are involved we glady help, but now i want information, what would make Seth say he was looking for Kara for a long time? Why her? He was desperate enough to plough through fourteen white haired kids, one of which belonged to your clan?"
Luna looked up at him, then at Kara.
"You know of us?" Kara asked.
"We know you"re a werewolf sweetie pie, if he had werewolf related isssues with you, tell us"
Kara nodded "He was trying to force me to awaken"
"Awaken?"
Kara looked at Luna, who responded for her "All werewolves awaken at a certain age, just as you said the venom changed over time Captain, this is similar. Her body needs to mature first before the wolf can awaken in her, its also a safety method from Blair, to avoid wolves that are too young to control them selves run wild"
Koos nodded "Makes sense, now that leads back to my original question, why Kara?"
Luna turned to her daughters "You two can go sit in the car so long, mommy needs to talk to them in person about this" She asked and the two nodded.
Luna walked to the front of their pickup then leaned against its bullbar.
"Remember your wussy friend Quintin?" She started.
"Yes?"
"Well, let me tel you, what he has done seventeen years ago, roughly eight months after we parted on the docs after our little yacht trip"
***Seventeen years ago***
"We found a way to monitor werewolves all around the world, without even leaving Doctor Ezbar"s labs. The only wolves we couldn"t track was the Anubis. This is how we discovered what the Fenrir clan was up to" Quintin said standing soaked from the rain inside Luna"s house.
"This method of tracking gives us the option of reading your rank level aswell, and we found a high ranked signal of an amarok appear inside the Fenrir clan, and a few days afterwards another. I decided to go investigate, it was no easy task, after the Fenrir"s withdrew from the war, they settled on the highest peaks of mount Kilimanjaro, inside its snowed over cap. I watched and listened for days. After they heard about Cleopatra"s plans, they desided to take matters into their own hands, and the Dires of the clan focused on producing children, obviously born from two Dires, the children would be born amaroks. When the third amarok child was born i heard them say: " This way we can defeat Cleopatra, and still push our territory wider than ever before"
They basically followed in Cleopatra"s footsteps, and i couldn"t allow that" Luna still stood watching him, not thinking of getting him a towel, or even a cup of coffee.
"A storm stricken night, without a moon, thats when i decided to attack. Thanks to Katja i learned how to turn into a saber without a moon, and before anyone in the camp could realise, i already slain five members effortlessly, the rest attacked, but they were no match. When it was all quiet, the bodies now freezing up in the cold, i heard a baby cry. The noise came from a tent on the border of the camp, a line of blood lead into the tent door, as i looked in, i found Valkarie lying with the newborn baby in one arm, a knife in the other, fury in her eyes"
"Come then! You demon cat! If you thought i would give this child up freely, youre mistaken, you shall pay in blood!"
The key to becoming a saber, is anger, i walked into the tent and closed the sail behind me, preventing more snow from entering. At first red was the colour i saw, it"s always that blasted red, and all i wanted to do was kill, but Valkarie"s bravery opened my eyes.
"Come! I swear, i don"t know why im not healing up, but i will defend my child!"
I licked the blood of her clan members off my sabers, then scanned the tent, i didn"t really know how to respond, i felt for her, i was locked in that position by her will as a mother.
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Waiting for me to bleed out!? Typical! You low life sc.u.m!"
"Calm down" i got the words out finally "I dont want to kill you, or your child"
"Then what!?"
"I know where to draw the line, let me take your child to a person who can take care"
Valkarie sighed and dropped the knife "Stupid cat, how wil you get her out of this storm? Shes a new born, only a day old she will never survive"
"Ill tuck her in my fur"
"It still wont work, i might not be there for her in the future, but there is one last thing i can do for her" Valkarie rolled onto her back and opened her fur coat "Provide warmth"
"By wrapping her in your coat?"
"No" she pulled her shirt up to expose her abdomen "inside me"
At first i wasn"t sure if she was serious, but she made it clear.
"Hurry, i can feel my life slipping, cut me open, remove my intestines, and place her in me"
Hesitantly i sprung my thumb claw, and placed it just below her ribcage.
"Are you sure?"
"Your wound has caused me to lose feeling from my arms down, i wont feel anything, we Fenrirs know best of all, hunting in sheer cold, the best place to stay warm in the blizzard is sometimes inside the carca.s.s of a kill, now do it, i can provide warmth as long as im alive"
At her words i dug in and cut her down to her pelvis, removed her innards and slowly placed the blanket covered baby in her, i wrapped her and the kid in a thick fur blanket, then lifted her.
"I don"t know how long i have, run as quick as you can" She said, i placed her against my chest and darted out the tent. I ran as fast as i could, until the warmth of the African sun got to me again at the bottom of the mountain. I placed her down and took the blankets off, she grabbed a hand full of my fur and looked at me with a serious expression.
"Take care of her! Maybe your claws are good for killing, but i beg you! Use them to protect atleast her!"
Luna stood astonished at his story, then looked down at the baby she now held.
"Please Luna, she"s a wolf like you, you can take care of her"

"I couldn"t say no, after a story like that"
"Bliksem" Koos said "That Valkarie was as tough as nails"
"Why didn"t Valkarie"s wounds heal?" Frits asked.
"Quintin never said anything about that, all i know is Valkarie"s daughter is sitting in my car right now, the last Fenrir" Luna turned to her daughters "Kara, it means "the wild and stormy one" Valkarie gave her that name because of that storm she was born in" Luna turned to Koos again "And she"s a born amarok, just like me"
"So, if she"s an amarok, i take it this has something to do with law four, no wolf will feed off humans or other wolves?" Frits asked.
"I fear that"s the case, even at that rank, if Kara awakens she"d still be no match for an older more experienced dire, or even an alpha werewolf"
"Hes attempting to gain rank" Koos said and Luna nodded.
"Ok, so what will you do now?"
"I dont know, i don"t even want to be on the same continent as that b.a.s.t.a.r.d, but i have nowhere to go"
"What about Michael and Dianne? We know their adress is in Pretoria, that"s far away from here"
"I guess i can go to them for a while, but im worried that they might have ties with Seth"
"Oh no, don"t you worry about that, Michael and Dianne started their own company called Black Alpha oil, theire stinking rich, and i doubt they"ll do anything illegal with such a wealthy lifestyle"
Luna nodded "That explains the yacht"
"Yes" Frits wrote their adress on a piece of paper and handed it to her "Go now, we placed a tracker on Seth"s car just before he left, he"s still down in Gordon"s bay, you have one huge head start"
"Ok" She said taking the paper.
"We have some unfinished business down here, when we"re done, well come up to Pretoria aswell, to make sure you and your daughters are safe" Koos said. Luna smiled at them.
"So this is the fearsome terrorist group called DPK hey?" She mocked making them laugh.
"In the flesh sussa, now go, well keep in touch" Koos said getting into the pickup. The three men sat watching her drive past them and continued on the N1 towards Worcester.
"Somehow, it seems like all is going according to plan" Frits said. Koos lit a cigarette and blew the smoke out.
"Don"t count your chickens before they hatch Frits, this was only phase one, phase two will be alot more time consuming, and that"s why we need to go up to Pretoria, and make sure this Seth poes doesn"t f.u.c.k it up"
"I have an idea, lets go help that Silvia girl lock him up, with him in jail whe have some s.p.a.ce to breath" Frits also lit up.
"Good idea, Piet lets head back to Jonkersdrift"
