Chapter 85

Alex’s POV

Hendrix said the tunnels lead out into the main compound area. They were designed for a quick escape. The right tunnel was overgrown and they had to cut their way through it when Harry got to the tunnel entrance. I could hear the alarms going off, not too long after Jeremy ran to alert Carter; we were here.

As each warrior walked pass me; they smiled and shifted into their Lycan. I can hear screaming coming from the other side of the tunnel; and hope everyone is ok. I smile, watching Olivia and Jessica walk forward together, hand in hand. They are, united Lunas.

“I will see you both, after we get Mum” I say to our Lunas. They smile and shift into their Lycans. **“Jessi and Celeste are adorable, merged together”** Jonas grins. I smile at them, nodding my head.

“Ready?” Pedro says to Debbie, Cathy, Christian, Coby and I. “Let’s get Mum back” Cathy includes. We follow Pedro through the tunnel, there is a small doorway leading outside to the fighting and a side door leading to holding cells. “Your mothers are through here” he says. We can hear fighting and screams coming in from outside. **“We can’t think of that right now; let’s get Mumma wolf and then we can join the others”** Jonas scolds.

Pedro opens the door and peeks through; “All clear” he says opening up the door. We walk through, Pedro and I, followed by Coby and Christian, then Debbie and Cathy. “Which room did Jems say they were in?” I ask Pedro, “Room 5. This way” he answers.

We turn another corridor; three Lycan guards are standing waiting for us in front of room 5. We all shift and head straight for them. Jonas and myself say together; “Don’t touch door 5; unless you want to have burns, that last for weeks.”

Pedro grabs the first guard and head butts him, throwing him against the door of room 5. We can smell his fur burning. “Nice one, Aunty Gil” I yell out. “Thank you” she calls back. The second lunges at me; I slash at him with my claws; ripping his shoulder. He looks at the wound and growls at me, lunging again; I side step, kicking him in the stomach, punching the back of his neck. He hits the floor, Christian kicks his head, knocking him unconscious.

Christian, Coby and Pedro join together to take the last one out. Pedro grabs his head and swings it, breaking his neck. “I didn’t like Oliver, anyway” he says laughing. We all shift back; “All clear Mum” I call out. Pedro walks to the desk and grabs the holding cell keys.

“You can open the door now, Alex” Aunty Gilda yells. Pedro opens the door, as I stand in front of the doorway, Christian and Coby are behind me facing each side of the corridor; making sure no-one else comes in. Debbie and Cathy are leaning on the doorway of the adjacent room.

“Alex” Mum screams coming out of the room; bowling me over in her arms. “Cathy, Debbie” Cynthia says to the ladies giving them a hug. “Come; we have to get out of here” Pedro tells us; heading back to the tunnel.

We head back the way we came; Doctor Spencer and Yvette put their arms around Joanna and walk behind Pedro. Mum grabs one arm and Gilda grabs the other as we follow behind them. “Why are you wearing the zombie make up?” Gilda asks. “Because they were going to use the dead wolf thing to scare the guard out of the tunnel; apparently a lot of them are superstitious” Coby says as he and Christian come up behind us.

“Jonas is pissed, he got all dressed up and couldn’t be a zombie” I laugh at them. “We can do it for our fancy-dress ball” Debbie calls out from the back. **“That would be fun”** he snorts.

We get to the doorway; “Alex” Cathy screams out and I hear a male cackling behind me. Pedro, Christian, Cody and myself shift to our Lycan; pushing Mum, Gilda, Joanna, Sophia and Yvette behind us. There are three guards holding Cynthia, Debbie and Cathy. Richard and Sharon are with them and Richard cackles again; “Take them to Carter” he screams. The guards pull the ladies behind them; dragging them back towards the holding rooms.

Over the last few weeks, Elder Matthews has been teaching us how to get around magic spells being thrown at us. I smirk at Richard; “Give it your best go” I yell. Richard smirks; raising his hands. We dodge the impact of the spell.

Richards eyes narrow and grunts his frustration, trying again; we dodge a second time; then a third. “Your power is nothing, compared to the Elder Matthews” Coby snarls. He throws more spells; we move and dodge. “He’s losing energy” Christian smirks.

“Enough playing” I yell; charging at him. With one swipe; I slit his throat with my claws. *“Sorry Toby; but I wiped the smirk off Richard’s face”* I quickly link him. We all look at Sharon; she turns and runs back toward the holding rooms.

“Pedro; take the ladies back to the porthole sight. Christian, Coby; you’re with me” I scream. I open a link to all Gold Moon Pack members. *“Please pass onto other leaders. Mum, Gilda, Yvette, Sophia and Joanna are safe. Three guards have taken Cynthia, Debbie and Cathy; they are heading to Carter. Sharon is following behind them. I have just killed Richard. Christian, Coby and myself are going after them.”*

*“I’m here with Carter, I will watch over them when they get here; where’s Pedro”* Jeremy links me back *“Taking the ladies back to the porthole site. I’m trusting him to take care of them”* I tell him. *“Nath; Ads, Jeremy just said he is with Carter and will watch the ladies”* I link them. *“He better”* Nath links back.

We run back through the corridor; maybe I should have kept Pedro with me. We head out two double doors; into the compound area. The three of us stop dead. Looking around the compound. The fighting is still going on; we can see dead wolves; panthers; lions; tigers; leopards and bears. “I can’t see where they took Debbie, Cathy and Cynthia” Coby says. “Alex” we hear Debbie scream. “You bitch” a male voice, yells back. She must have bitten him.

“This way” I yell as someone with grey fur and blonde hair runs up beside me. “Jessi” “Hey handsome; fight here often?” she laughs. Toby, Tim, Nathanial, Adrian, Alister and Elijah are coming along side of us. “Olivia, Beck, Master Joe and Hendrix were at the rear, they are heading our way now” Adrian says.

“Glenn’s been injured; Kim took him back to the porthole site” Nath says. “How bad?” I ask him. “He’ll live; but it’s bad; he got slashed across his rear end. He won’t be sitting for while” Jessi chuckles.

“Nath, Ads” we hear Cathy scream. “We need to get to the girls” Adrian yells.
