Chapter 92
993words
There was a report on the south border regarding a human that trespassed and collapsing just below the border line, it took place about an hour ago and if i'm correct the Human is in Maria right now. We were ordered to extract information and distinguish lies from the Human if he was ever suspicious. I held the fabric of my skirt as i exited the Kingdom to Maria, i was accompanied by other Dark witches. When we entered, the scent and the howls of the werewolves present in it yearned for attention and help, the silver banging and some of them clearly cursing at us.
we were used to it, so we paid no attention to it.
As we reached the room where the human was to be interrogated, two werewolves were guarding the door as we entered. The Human was unconscious, meaning we had to wake him up so we did by means of electricity. My accomplice wielded her wand to generate electricity and she laughed when the Human woke up and screamed in pain.
"SHIT!" he curses.
"GoodAfternoon Human." I smiled at him.
"W-Where am i?" his eyes landed on the dark corners of the cell. "Who the hell are you? where's my family?"
As he asked us questions, i immediately saw that his body were filled with weapons. Weapons that could kill a vampire, it was obvious just from touching it- the source of the oak present from its bullets and the dagger that was coated from holy Water. My eyes landed on his face. "What's your purpose Hunter?" i ask.
"How did you know that? who are you people?!" He said, struggling from the chains that bided him on the chair, he glared at me.
"Since you are a human we were ordered to be humble towards a humble species. We cannot make rash decision by killing another species- Especially humans." i said. "you do not have the right to ask the question, only to answer."
"i don't know what you people plan doing with me, but all i know is that i was dragged near here, i just walked straight and fell who knows where." he replied.
You fell exactly on the border line, who would believe that it was a coincidence? but still knowing that RedBloodMoon has many enemies, this guy could be a part of a plot to start another war with us. Not making any assumptions, i decided to ask more. "Who dragged you here?"
"i'm can't tell you that, i'm a skilled hunter right?!" he said as if it was something obvious. i sighed, signaling the witch beside me to electrocute him for 5 seconds, he screamed in pain then stops when she pulled the wand away from him. He panted heavily "I-Is that magic?"
"Dark Magic."
"Fine i'm gonna speak but don't get that near me again."
"deal." i smiled.
He sighed in relief. "Thank you, my sister always did something similar but was 10x more painful-"
"Wait.. did you say your sister used magic?"
"Yeah she does..." he trailed off. "Well we were ambushed from a mission, and if my memory is right. Some guy told me to head straight and i did, and you brought me here."
"So your sister is a witch? or.. "
"She's not. She's human she just became like that two years ago. We don't know what happened to her but she forgot everything about us- wait why are we even talking about my sister here?" he asked confused.
i ignored his thought and continued. "Two years ago?" that was the exact year where Christal disappeared. "What's the name of your sister?"
"Why should i tell you?" he rolls his eyes.
i was getting impatient so i took my wand out. "NONONO! her name is Athena! okay!? are we good? take that wand away from me!" he panics like a child.
Athena? was i mistaken? maybe i'm thinking too much about it- nevermind. This is not what i came here for. I signaled the witches to start the Ritual and they nodded, we circled the kid. The human was starting get anxious, the others witches feeling excited because of the air of tension and fear from the human. i sighed and told him to relax. "We're not gonna kill you." i assured him.
he nods silently.

As we stated the spell to foresee a person's memory, i suddenly had the feeling form a bad omen. My eyebrows furrowed slightly, my sweat rolled down my face as my hand gripped harder on their hands while we did the ritual. The Door opened, our blood dripping from our eyes, i held back the pain from the punishment from using the power of sight without a permission- since we were Dark Witches we always pay for a price. The last memory appeared and believe me when i said that i almost opened my eyes from shock.
{"Herus! What the hell are you doing here!"}
{"Well i did tell you i was gonna protect you?" He glanced towards the group of guys. "This is so like you."}
{"Who is he?"}
{"Me? I'm her boyfriend."}
{"No you're not!"}
My heart was beating fast as i saw familiar faces appearing to our vision, each of my accomplices seeing the memory, since they knew Christal they as well had shock plastered across their faces. We all looked at each other in shock as we tried to comprehend the memory as showing us. But the very thing that disturbed me was seeing the Stone Pack member, Herus.
If my guess is correct, He was the one who led this human here. But why? Did he know that we would specifically interrogate a human by entering their memory? if that was the case, the chances are he was relying on a message to us- telling us that after two years.
Christal is alive!
