Chapter 43:

The Mission

Beasted


...She rather pushed her forehead against his and then hugged Romulus to stop him from whatever mistake he was trying to make.

Romulus with a heavy breath and closed eyes didn't let it slide. "Why did you stop me? Just one tiny kiss..." Patty didn't buy into this. "I belong to Zeev and I know you would aim for more after." She was right. Romulus sighed. "So, do we have any plan for getting your Zeev back?"

Patty took a while to think, pondering about what Romulus told her. "Please, teach me more about that area the facility is in?" Romulus looked around in the air the remember more details. "The extinguished volcano has a labyrinth-like cave system. I used my nose to get to the surface. The ventilation is constructed so, that a whole werewolf can fit in because they need the air to survive.
It is set deep inside the volcano but not many soldiers working there. The thing about becoming a secret agent working with us werewolves is a big deal... they are required to die in the eyes of society. Not many are willing to do that of course and it's hard to replace them if they really die during their work and then it takes some time.
Ever since we killed a bunch of them the first time around and then, I saw dead secret soldiers at the werewolf village... I am pretty sure their numbers are right now depleted. There is a great chance for us to be successful. The only thing I fear is that crazy bitch doctor lady..."


Patty hugged Romulus tightly in her arms. "Don't worry, I won't let her lay a finger on you. I promise!" Her warm embrace was assuring him. He pulled from it and looked her in the eyes. "I am ready! Let's do it!"



Romulus scouted the surroundings of the facility entrance. He saw a couple of soldiers with guns guarding it. He crept from behind, not making any sound, and pretty much gave them an instant kill with one hit each. Patty swallowed hard over that sheer brute power she saw Romulus having... She was glad, he was on her side.

They took the clothes and guns of the dead soldiers. The first thing on their list was to deactivate the communication system on the outside. Smashing the radio tower... Romulus told her, that in winter, it was normal to have some signal failures and mostly they repaired it in the morning. He was sure, that they won't take any measure to get it fixed that soon.

Through some long cave tunnels, the two reached the ventilation shafts and Romulus made a hole into it with his sharp claws. They didn't need long to climb inside and they reached the security office with the cameras. Pretty much Romulus killed them on the spot and destroyed not only the recording system but also the power of the cameras.

Next on his list, were the sleeping quarters. Patty stayed outside with her cap lowered in front of her eyes and she held her hands over her ears. Her gun dangling on her shoulder. She didn't wish to hear the slaughter Romulus did inside. It was necessary to destroy any enemy, they could wake up later.

At last, Romulus straightened up the soldier uniform he hated for almost his eternity and was ready to walk into the control tower. Patty stood guard at the door again and tried not to listen to those horrible sounds coming from the inside.

As Romulus walked inside, nobody really paid attention to him, until he just turned his hand into a paw with claws and stabbed one of the officers. After, he threw that dead limp body at a couple, who wanted to aim their guns at Romulus. Then he killed the one sitting by the cell buttons, slashing his neck open, and spilling all his blood over the control panel.

The couple of soldiers untangled themselves from their dead comrade and they were about to attack Romulus. He swirled on the spot and one went flying into the wall hard enough to kill him instantly on the impact, the other just slipped on the floor.

He was that "hard to kill" type. One silver knife out of the sheath later, stabbing Romulus into his forearm. Romulus tried to hold his scream from the pain inside to not bring any unwanted attention. He knew, there were more sleeping quarters further... deep inside the mountain.

Romulus grabbed him with the other arm by the head and with some brute force squished his skull. The control tower was all over stained with human blood and dead bodies. He did not want to let Patty peek at such a sight, so he slightly opened the door ajar and asked her to go downstairs and he will be the one to open the cage with Zeev, she needed just to point it out for him.

Patty turned her head to the elevator and prepared to see her beloved werewolf alpha. She pushed the button downstairs and walked over to the five cages, which were standing in a half circle around the space. From a distance, she could see the naked Zeev. She was relieved that he was still alive.

Then the ESCAPE plan proceeded...

...A figure was walking their way. "Quick, HIDE!" Patty whispered. The person slowly walked wobbly over... A trail of blood was left behind and both werewolves in Patty's presence could sniff that out.


The person stepped closer and Patty shot out from her hiding spot. It was Romulus with a silver pole sticking out of his abdomen. "What the hell happened?" Both Zeev and Asset were shocked.

Romulus was bleeding strongly and the steam was melting any snowflake that flew too close. Patty didn't hesitate and put both of her hands on it. Despite the pain and burning sensation, she pulled it out and then dropping it into the snow.

Romulus fell to the ground bleeding all over the place. She pulled down her scarf and began to wrap it around his whole torso. She turned to Zeev and Asset-751. "What now?!"
