Chapter 357: 1-1

Chapter 42.1 – Chelsea POV Nothing had really went as I was planning up to yet, we seemed to have landed and just kept running when we arrived on the island. It was to be expected, of course would we would have to settle in and gather our bearings, and then we would begin training. That. Never. Happened. Since we got here it was one disaster after another, weeding through just whom we trust, especially when I realized that not everyone here on the island was actually worthy of being here. I didn’t want to put that label on anyone, deciding who would live or die and who was worth it, that wasn’t why I had been given this journey. In fact it was quiet reversed, I was sent to undo all of the damage that the Elders had created by believing they were above it all as well as deciding the ‘all’ so to speak. Chelsea stop Kayla, stop her, tell her to stop attacking the boy, Chris shouted in my mind again, I closed my eyes concentrating on Kayla’s mind. Startled, her mind a bowl of past and present, I shook my head, no hurt the girl, stop hurting her bad, she thought, Kayla stop! Stop! Her body instantly stilled, and through her mind a bloodied boy is beneath her. “Grant stay here with Ben,” I said as my eyes snap open and I leave the kitchen, knowing that Grant is on my heals as I leave the house, “Chelsea what’s going-” he’s cut off but my mind is elsewhere. Leland, Lux, and Marlon go to the beach near Rainy and Chris’ house; there was an attack I believe, right now! The order is sent and the wind around me picks up, much more than the light breeze that couldn’t so much as move the silky curtains on our window, odd compared to any other night. I glanced at Gabriel, wondering if this was just I, my hair was lifted away, I closed my eyes, reaching out to him and the two of us were upon the scene near the water. “Oh god! Help him – help him!” a young girl shrieked, “Anthony, Anthony,” che cried, her hair flying in all directions, she swiped it away, wearing nothing but a shirt, the young boy on the ground naked, “Kayla!” I heard from behind me, turning I saw Ben running full speed at me, his face scrunched up, arms swinging as he pushed towards her. Rainy and Chris each had two children clipped to their chest, crying and pleading with Kayla and the babies to stop crying but each shout from the girl, led to louder shrieks from the babies. “Chelsea don’t let him near her!” She tried to attack Rainy and I, Chris finished in my mind. Getting closer I could see now that the young man was Anthony, Marlon’s son. “Chris give the baby to Gabriel, and help Anthony, he’s Marlon’s son,” I ordered him. Before Leland and Marlon could arrive to the beach, Lux burst through the trees, and from the spot Ben came Julia and Grant followed now. Lux, its Anthony, I told him over the link, before turning to Kayla. Her fur was silver, shimmering in the night sky as she growled and whimpered. Hurting girl, hurting girl, she thought growling, but it was mixed with images of her in pain, “oh god,” I muttered in understanding. “Kayla honey shift back,” Rainy tried to coax the little girl, but as she took a step forward, the wolf bared her teeth, agitated. Glancing back, I looked on as Ben approached Kayla, one step at a time, “It’s me Kayla, I won’t hurt you,” he whispered getting closer than Rainy and I. turning back I went to Anthony, noting that he was covered in blood, claw marks, his heart beating much too slow. Standing I went to my knees near his head, noting he had claw marks on his neck, I placed my hand over them, closing my eyes concentrating to heal that wound immediately when I saw blood at the side of his mouth. “Do this one next Chelsea,” Chris pointed near Anthony’s groin when he noted what I was doing specifically – healing his wounds. Without thinking I let him place my hand where I needed, “What’s – oh god – Anthony?” Marlon said from behind me, while Julia had seemed to bring the young girls shrieks to sobs, “Lola?” Leland asked in shock. “What – where are your clothes young lady?” his voice taking on a new tone that I couldn’t understand. “What happened?” Marlon asked frantically, not answering him Chris took over, “We let Kayla run ahead she was over here maybe three or four minutes before we ever came around the corner. This is part of the private beach no one was supposed to be here… when we came-” “Why is he naked?” Marlon interrupted Chris, “Who did this?” “Lola?” Leland asked as I closed the wound, my hand covered in Anthony’s blood, “Chelsea his stomach next,” Chris said moving my hand again where it needed to be. “We – we just wanted to – we’ve always came here – there’s nowhere – where we,” the sobbing girl – Lola – started speaking, well stammering an explanation. From my files I knew that Anthony had just turned fifteen and Lola soon after him, taking pity I answered. “They were being intimate, Kayla in wolf form came alone, and she attack Anthony, she thought he was hurting Lola,” I said softly to Marlon, “She was remembering…” I looked up at him, she thought Anthony was raping Lola like what others did to her, and she didn’t do it on purpose, I told him flat out. “Lola…” again Leland said in a tone I didn’t understand, “you’re only fifteen,” I blinked feeling the wound beneath my hand close and Anthony’s breathing softened. “Daddy-” “Neither of you have shifted, what if you aren’t mates? What if your mate is here? Did you two think of that-” “Really daddy? She attacked us-” Pulling my hand away, I stood leaving Lux, Chris and Marlon to handle the rest, “You were told not to come here by your father?” I asked coldly, “Yeah, but we just wanted to be alone-” “I don’t care what you wanted to do, or what you were going to do, I care that you’ve been told not to come here long before anyone was here and you’ve been coming here nonetheless?” she eyed her father, Leland. “Whatever chore your mother has on this island, you will accompany her for the next month, when I see her, I expect to see you with her when you aren’t in school or doing your own chores,” I said walking to the water and washing Anthony’s blood from my hands.
