entrance of the school, Elijah, Danny, and the guys at my back. Time to see if it worked.
I reach for the door and rip it open.
Good.
We work our way in, moving down the hall, entering classrooms full of kids and teachers, telling them how to get out and to stay quiet.
“They're in the gym.” A teacher tells me, showing me her phone. A message from another teacher I assume.
“Thank you,” I tell her, and usher her from the room while the guys are doing the same with other classrooms. We try to empty the school as much as we can before we reach the gym. I'm not sure why the cops aren't trying to get in, but I'm thankful for whatever it is Marie is doing to keep them occupied.
We work our way to the gym as silent as we can, but every scream makes me angrier.
Elijah moves to the doors and looks in through the small glass window.
“Fuck,” he hisses quietly. “That’s a whole lot of fucking bullshit in there. There’s at least a dozen Dracul and Lycans. No Witches that I could see, but they have at least half of the fucking school in there. There's already a ton of bodies scattered across the floor, and there's blood fucking everywhere.”
“Well, then I guess it's time we saved the day,” Danny says with a grin. “I hate this shit, but man do I love this shit.”
I pull my gun, and take a deep breath, I don't want to go in there all guns blazing, but what other choice do we have. I check my ammo tucked in my belt, making sure it’s secure.
“You guys take the Lycans, Elijah and I will handle the Dracul,” I tell him, and they nod, reloading their ammo to make sure they have the right bullets. I just hope the humans stay the fuck out of the way, and that we can get a Witch in here to take away their memories before the cops get here.
“Let’s do this,” Danny says with a huge grin and kicks the doors open.
“Party's here boys,” I say cockily, smile on my face, and lift my gun. I stop thinking and just let my body do its thing, not stopping to think about the humans, or think twice about taking the lives of the Dracul in here. I know the guys have my back, and will handle the Lycans, while Elijah and I focus on the Dracul. Considering how fast they can move, they're not very clever.
Then, following Archer, how clever could they be. I shoot, and reload, my ears ringing from the screams and the gunshots around us, but I don't stop until every Dracul is down, Elijah grins at me as he finishes the last one standing. “Bet I killed more than you.”
“Oh fuck off.” I laugh quickly, making sure the Lycans are down too. I'm covered in blood, but I feel good. I feel more useful than I have since all of this started. This, right here, this is what I'm good at.
“I assume it’s my turn?” Marie says from the door and looks around the room disdainfully. She walks to the middle of the gym, her heels clicking on the floor. “You boys should probably make yourself scarce looking like that.”
“Yes ma'am.” Danny says with a grin, still riding the death high. We follow him out and back to the trucks.
“Thank you boys for coming to join the party,” I tell them as they climb into their truck.
“Glad we didn't miss it,” Elijah says, grinning. “Make sure to invite us again next time.”
I pat the hood of the truck and they peel out of here, while I strip out of my t-shirt and wipe the blood from my face and arms. I grab a spare I have in the back and shrug it on. Not much I can do about my jeans and boots, but at least they're black. I lean against the hood and wait for Marie to reappear, while trying not to think too hard about what Archer’s game plan is.
This was obviously just the beginning, it was too small for it to be his master plan. And with no Remy, he won't be unleashing the Demons any time soon, but I have no doubt that he has something up his sleeve.
We really need to wake my fucking brother up.
Chapter Thirteen
Remy
I wake up, surrounded by my guys. Levi to my back, Roman at my front. Creek is at the end of the
