Mia gathered all the warriors that would be going to settle this mission. We stood at the entrance of the omega camp.
I felt a sense of loss when I thought of my pups but I cheered myself up.
It is not like this is our last encounter with each other. When I come back, I would be able to see their precious faces.
I don’t know why the moon goddess had not explained the tumultous times that were coming to the omega warriors.
She must have a reason for keeping them out of the loop.
On the other hand, I hinted to Mia and the rest of the omega warriors. that there was an absolute mastermind behind everything that had been happening.
This mission regarding mutating werewolves can be considered the peak of it all.
It is the first time I am coming across something like this and I am not pleased.
Mia came closer to me.
Yuri, Jaila and Rita was by my side.
“This is the first time we are encountering mutated werewolves. We don’t know what their power is like or their purpose.” Mia said, “We are exploring uncharted territory here. You have to put your safety first.”
I smiled, “Don’t worry Mia. You know me. If a situation is unfavorable, I would bolt out of there so I can make a better comeback.”
Mia returned my grin, “That would be for the best. I don’t want any of our sisters dying for nothing.”
Suddenly, the weight of this mission pressed down on me.
Like Mia, I did not want anything to happen to the omega warriors. These people were the personal army the moon goddess trained.
Besides, I take this people as my family.
I would prefer it if nothing harmful happens to them.
The moment I see signs of a situation we would not be able to handle, we
are getting out of there.
I don’t care if my action would seem selfish.
I and my sisters can not die in vain.
It is only when we are alive that we would be able to help more people.
Dead people can’t do that.
“Please help me watch over my triplets.” I whispered to Mia and she laughed.
Although I knew that they were in safe hands, my maternal instincts still urged me to remind Mia.
These children was my life.
Any attack towards them is an attempt to take my life.
They are my lifeblood.
She patted my shoulder.
“Go do your mission with ease of mind. The triplets are my kids too, I will keep a tight watch over them. Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I would make sure they are unharmed.” Mia reassured me and I nodded. Her words made some of the pressure on me lighten./
I knew she meant every word she said. I would be able to focus well on my mission now.
The omega camp had many teleportation crystals because a normal mission only needs three or two warriors to attend to it.
The omega warriors‘ camp receives more than three normal missions at the same time.
The numerous crystals was godsend. It made it easier for the omega warriors‘ camp to dispatch many warriors at once.
“I did not get a chance to congratulate you on the successful birth of your pups.” Yuri said, “Congratulations.”
Warmth filled every inch of my body.
Jaila and Rita said their congratulations too.
Other female warriors joined them and the scene turned lively.
I stared at them.
This was my family.
I would not tolerate anyone trying to hurt my family.
I did not want this happiness to disappear.
It was one of the reasons I always make sure i do my missions well. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
I can not let a random person have the liberty of destroying my joy.
“Let’s go.” Yuri instructed and a considerable number of omega warriors brought out the crystal.
I had one with me too.
I said the incantation that would activate the crystal.
A whitish mist seeped out of the crystal in waves before encompassing a select number of people that was by my side.
The scene before my eyes changed and I found myself in front of a pack.” The pack’s entrance loomed like a crouching beast.
don’t know why but my sixth sense began giving off warning signs.
“Be careful. There is danger ahead.” I said to my comrades.
Since I started listening to my sixth sense and my guts, there had never been a time it failed me.
Even if it failed me, it would be because I could not pinpoint the threat level of the upcoming danger.
Anytime my guts failed me, I would be the one at fault.
The omega warriors nodded and we approached the pack’s entrance. carefully.
We entered into the pack.
I looked around.
This was the pack that sent the letter requesting for our help.
The strange thing is that the pack looked okay. It did not seem to be under attack like the letter had claimed.
Another strange thing I could not help but notice is that the pack was too quiet.
Since we entered the pack, no werewolf had come out.
Werewolves‘ sense wasn’t that lax and werewolves can be extremely territorial.
It was baffling that we entered into a pack and nobody showed up.
This situation was looking like a trap to me.
I don’t know how the moon goddess did it but every request for help had
been checked carefully..
There had been no incident of a false call.
The moon goddess would not want her omega warriors heeding a request that was just a joke so she had a system that checks these requests.
This pack had genuinely needed help when their letter was sent to the omega warriors‘ camp. There was no doubt about that.
Since they needed help, why was this dreary scenario playing out?
This mission was giving me awful vibes and the first thing I want to do is get out of here.
After I get home, I would be able to rethink the whole situation and come. up with better plans.
“Let get out of here.” I said and the omega warriors begán implementing my words.
After I achieved success in several missions, my words had some weight. A clapping sound rang out.
– The quiet pack echoed the noise and the sound seemed eerie.
I looked at the direction the sound was coming from.
A man came out of the deep insides of the pack.
A group of people was behind him.
I stared at him.
He was handsome and charismatic but something spoiled his beauty.
His skin was very pale and his eyes was as red as blood.
It was unsettling.
I could sense that the new arrivals were part of the my race.
Their aura is just strange.
These people had to be the mutated werewolves the letter was talking about.
My heart tightened and I got into a battle stance.
This mission was a trap these mutated werewolves laid down for the omega warriors.
We had walked right into the core of the trap.
I could not help the blame surging through me
I should have listened carefully to my sixth sense.
We should have left the moment I noticed something wasn’t right.
Although I doubt that these people would have let us slip through their fingers like that, we would have had a chance to escape swiftly.
We would have incurred no casualties then.
“Who are you people?” I asked as I regained my calm.
Being agitated would not help matters at all.
All I can do is try to outwit my opponents.
“You deserved to be the chosen one. You noticed something was off right
away. I have to give you credit.” The man that was in the lead said.
I darted a look at the entrance of the pack.
Another group of mutated werewolves was preventing the omega warriors from going out.
There was still one last resort we can use but it is only one person that would be able to use it.
The only way we can try to tackle this mission was by sending somebody back to the omega warriors‘ camp to ask for help.
There was plenty teleportation crystals but it is only one person that can be allowed to leave.
The reason is because the teleportation crystals take time to seep out mist before it could take a person away.
In battles, the difference of a second can be very crucial.
The only way the warrior designated to leave can teleport is if the rest of us put up a fight that would prevent these mutated werewolves from stopping her.
Yuri had a crystal in her hand and she was the closest to me.
I shifted to her and wrote my instructions on her palm.
She nodded to show that she understood.
Yuri activated the crystal and I resumed my battle stance. The rest of the omega warriors followed in assuming a battle stance.
We were ready for these mutated werewolves to attack but then a surprising thing occurred.
These mutated werewolves did not do anything. They just watched as Yuri left with the teleportation crystal.
The gaze they were using to look at us was as if we were fools.
The man in the lead laughed.
“My name is Damien.” He introduced.
I furrowed my brows.
We were in a tight situation right now and all he could think to do was introducing himself.
“Why are you telling me your name? Don’t you know it is a futile action?” I said bitingly.
Damien laughed again.
“It is not a futile action. The chosen one has to know the name of the person that would end her life.” Damin said, “Besides, you let me down.” “What?” I was confused and I did not like it.
Damien and the other mutated werewolves were behaving strangely.
They are acting out of the norms.
Why did they let Yuri leave?
They would not have let her leave if her action won’t give them any benefits.
Yuri’s action had to have satisfied them somehow.
I was starting to feel agitated.
“You have realized that something is wrong. At least I did not praise you in vain.” Damien said as his deposition changed.
He brought out a red crystal that was similar to the white crystal we used to teleport.
“The location of the omega warriors‘ camp had always been elusive so thank you. You showed us the way.” Damien activated his crystal as he said a string of incantations.
The group of werewolves behind him disappeared but new mutated werewolves came out from the depths of the pack to replace those that left./
An oppressive atmostphere lingered overhead. I finally realized their plan.
Damien hoped we would request for help so that he could use his crystal. to track the coordinates of the omega warriors‘ camp.
It was why he and his men surrounded us like this. He wanted to make us
lose hope so we would send somebody back to the omega warriors‘
camp.
It was why their momentum was strong.
I had played into his hands.
My enemy had used my intelligence to attack me.
My eyes stung with bitter tears.
I had led the mutated werewolves right to the omega warriors‘ camp!
I had done a great sin.
