Alex's POV
{Recap to while he is sedated}
'Well, this is unfortunate. I was hoping to have a bit more time but I guess we have to do this now. Your weapons will be needed soon.' Sam stated, turning the mindscape into a training room. 'Ready?'
~
'Ready? I think?' I said hesitantly. Everything was happening so fast, that I could barely process it.
Nodding, Sam begins to explain,
'You have a variety of weapons you can choose from. One st is yours, the other is Moon's. Since you have mated, you can use her weapons as long as she has summoned them. Moon has several weapons she can summon, 3 swords, 2 staffs, and 2 bows and arrows. 3 swords, one that can resurrect, one that can kill, and a dagger that can heal. 2 staffs, one that can banish and the other that can guard with a forcefield. And finally 2 bows and arrows, one that can create a portal to teleport to another location, and one that can track anyone anywhere. As long as Moon has summoned them and they are sheathed, holstered, or active, you can use them as well as she can.'
I stood there, dumbfounded and proud of how powerful my mate is. Images of each of her weapons were displayed, so I knew what each looked like. They were all incredible.
'Now, each weapon takes some energy from you, even if they are hers. Swords use the least and staffs run on life force. Staffs are only used when necessary, for even if you guys cant die, you will fall into a coma. We can't have our rulers out of commission.'
The weight of everything settles on my shoulders and fear builds. Noting my mood, Sam reassures me that everything will be okay and that I will do fine.
'If those are her weapons, what do I have?'
'You have a sword, a dagger, and your power.' Sam smirked. 'Since you will be an earthly ruler, you have the easiest summoning rituals, as they will be used more frequently. You simply have to act as though you are unsheathing the sword.'
Following his directions, I was able to summon the sword quite easily. A sheath appeared around my waist when it was not in use. The hilt was golden, accented with a wolf head in the center. The blade was silver and seemed to be out of Silver.
'The blade is out of silver, to ensure either a very painful death or a swift one. It all depends on your intentions. The dagger is simply a smaller version of the sword, which is summoned by twisting the hilt.' Sam explained.
Curious, I twisted the hilt and the blade dissipated into a smaller, twisted one. This had a section, in the center of the blade, in which wolfbane was flowing.
'The dagger is used for interrogation or death. Both your weapons and your powers are in sync with your emotions. It changes how lethal you need it to be. Your powers are nothing fancy but, they are helpful. You can sense if someone is lying, force the truth out of them and you can have any wolf bow to you. You also can calm anyone down and heal. Nothing flashy but all useful.'
As Sam finished explaining everything, I felt myself waking up. Coming to, I saw a woman in all black, talking to the Vampire who knocked me out. I couldn't make out what they were saying, then I noticed that some words carved into the walls began to glow and didn't go out again. The woman and Vampire seem scared and mad. She turned and began to walk toward me.
"Well this complicates things, at least we have her Guardian," she stated, walking over to me. "I can't wait to have you watch as I kill your Mate. I am itching for her blood on my hands."
The thought of her hurting Moon caused my blood to boil. I let out a growl, still too out of it to speak. They simply laughed and walked out. I hope Moon is okay.
Moon's POV
{Recap to after she read to note}
Crumpling the paper, I felt something snap. The power raced through my body, humming and tingling. Walking back to Sun, I took him to his room to sleep it off, leaving a note telling him to not follow.
I set off to end this once and for all.
~
Once I hit the yard, I summoned my tracking bow, pulling Star forward.
'Star, I want you to track Lucifer from his scent. Can you do that?'
'Yeah, I just need to be in control,' she replied, coming to the forefront of my mind.
Focusing on Lucifer's scent, I shot the arrow, watching as it started tracking. I gave Star control, retreating to the back of my mind, watching her work. In Star's eyes, the arrow left a green trail. Allowing her to follow it, even if it was far ahead. The trail wasn't faltering and we set about shifting and following it.
~
It has been several hours when the trail stopped. Looking around, it seemed to have brought us to the destination.
'Is this it? Where is Lucifer?' I asked, wondering why it would have brought us to a clearing and not to him directly.
'He must be around here somewhere, his scent is strong,' she replied, trotting around the clearing.
"Hello pup," a voice called out from the trees.
Turning around, Lucifer walked out into the clearing, shoving a figure in front of him. He forced them to their knees, allowing me to get a glimpse of who it was. Alex.
"What do you want with him?" Star asked, agitated. She noticed that Sam was in distress.
"I would like to make a deal with you," Lucifer replied, kicking the ground.
'Alex, are you okay?' I asked through our link.
"No talking pup," Lucifer said, kicking Alex to the ground. He grunted in pain, as his shoulder hit the ground first. "This won't do, I was hoping you would have more fight. Very well, LOKAN!" he screamed, pulling Alex to his feet.
His face had several cuts and his shoulder was bruised. Star growled at the sight, the ground shaking slightly. Lokan appeared and Lucifer whispered something to him before he fazed off with Alex in tow.
"Let's settle this, shall we?" Lokan said, walking towards me.
