The Tormented Alpha's Last hope

Mission accomplished

I made sure there was nobody around and I ran toward the building. Staying at the rear of the building I began climbing up a drain pipe to get to the top of the house. Shimmying one of the windows open I climbed inside, seeing the room was empty I knew it was a safe place to begin.

I knew I had to go higher, opening the door I could tell the smell was higher up. Looking around making sure the coast was clear I crept quietly to the end of the hall and climbed a set of steps following my nose which led to large brown doors. I knew this was exactly where I needed to be.

I listened for a moment to make sure the room was empty. When I was sure I was alone, I opened the door and stepped inside closing the door gently behind me. I looked around the room and was shocked at how tidy the devil kept things. Everything looked new and so clean. “Make a mess” I whispered reminding myself of why I was here. I pulled open drawers and started emptying them on the floor, moving around to every item I could see and throwing it across the room. Stepping into a side room which was all open I saw rows of clothes hanging, I began puling them down, shredding each item, ripping them apart, even biting down using my teeth to tear the fabric.

Walking back out I continued my tirade across the room until I stopped at a door. Pushing it open I and peeked inside. It was a very big bathroom, I had never seen anything like this in my life, I had to keep reminding myself why I was there, this wasn't real. So I continued on trashing the place as Fabian called it.

I looked around with a sense of acheivement knowing I had done a pretty good job and knew the twins were going to be proud of me. The last touch was the bed I pulled the sheets off ripping them to rags and threw them across the room, punching my fist through the bottom of the bed I made a hole large enough for me to rip it open and pull out the insides.

But I stopped suddenly...

Next to me sat beside the bed was a photo, walking around to it I picked it up and studied it for a moment. I could only presume this was the devil, 'he must have himself a devil bride.' I thought as I looked at the two of them holding one another, smiling happily like they really were happy. The woman had markings on her body, I knew this was bad, witch markings, they had to be.

The man had markings too, but they were different to hers. It must be where their power comes from, was it those markings that made them evil?

Or could it be possible that the woman in the picture was also under his illusion? Did she know who he truly was when they took this picture.

I knew it was wrong but I took the picture out of the frame and slipped it in my back pocket. Maybe I could show my brothers, do they know about these markings, maybe if we could get them off of them they would become good and help bring mother back.

A noise from one of the rooms below me caught my attention. I could hear voices, I knew they werent coming towards me but still, I didnt want to hang around any longer than I had to. Taking one last look around the room I still pondered the fact of the lengths they went to, just to mask how evil this place truly was. They deserved this, every broken piece.

Opening the doors which led to the outside, I stepped out and launched myself over the edge landing on the ground below. I took off running toward the trees taking cover under their darkness. I decided to head back a different direction as there seemed to be more people now in the direction I entered. Jogging silently I headed back towards the mountains that Icould just make out from the moonlight that hit the peak of them.

After several minutes I felt confident I was making good time when I saw the edge of the forest ahead. I could see the rocky terrain similar to that I walked down, but I knew the entrance to the cave we were in was further around the mountain.

Stepping up onto a large rock to begin my climb over some large boulders I stopped and stood upright. Inhaling deeply I could smell something different. It was sweet, like nothing I had ever tasted before, It called to me. The more I focused on it, the more I had a warm feeling rise deep inside of me. I had never had this feeling before, did the devil know I was here? Was this him making his move towards me.

I turned, looking around in the darkness, there was nothing. I didnt feel like there was trouble, I felt like it was something good, It had to be a trick, I wasn't ever allowed anything good. I had to ignore the trickery, turning, I carried on moving but something was screaming inside of me to go and see what it was. Stopping I looked behind, 'one look' I whispered, reassuring myself it was ok just to look, then I had to leave straight away.

I headed back into the forest this time using my nose to guide me to the most delicious smell. I was getting quite good at using my nose, Gwen used to teach me in the basement to close my eyes and find different things she had hidden around the room.

I came to a small group of houses, just small wooden ones. Keeping hidden within the trees I walked around the rear of the houses deciding which one the smell was coming from.

Then I saw her, a small female carrying some wood from her garden into her house, I was sure the smell was coming from her, but people didnt small like that. I had to get closer, I had to see her properly.
