After learning from Innu that he had decided to become an Altered Hunter, the group stated that they needed details, and Innu had to explain himself fairly quickly because Austin wasn't giving him the best of smiles.
After all, Austin was an Altered, and Innu was now an Altered Hunter, which would mean the two of them were enemies in some way.
He explained his reasoning, that he wished to get stronger and how he had joined through Blake's recommendation as an apprentice. So far, they understood Innu's intention and how he had planned to stay in the Howlers, not really doing any Altered Hunter duties.
However, the tone and tension in the room started to change when Innu went on with his story, how he had been invited to an Altered Hunters meeting, and the assessments that followed. Finally, it was time for him to tell the others the hardest part, that he would have to leave Slough and be under the Altered Hunters' wing for an entire year.
"This is crazy... This is crazy. Why didn't you think about these things before joining them?" Austin asked. "Did you think that they would just teach you what they knew, give you the equipment you wanted, and never contact you again?"
Of all people, it hurt Innu a bit that what Austin said made sense. Although Innu never saw himself as the smartest in the group, he had always put himself in front of the wall of muscle Austin, but his reasoning was if Blake could do it, then why couldn't he.
"Look, it was just bad timing. You know I have a lot of connections to Slough other than just you guys. I don't want to be gone for a year, but now I'm stuck in a really tough situation. Honestly, I'm just glad that only you guys are here. Otherwise, if Marie or Gary were here, this would be a lot harder."
Kai was taking in everything Innu was saying, but unlike Austin, who had an instant dislike for the whole thing, Kai was thinking about how they could use this to their advantage.
"You're right. If Gary were here, he might even try to fight against the Altered Hunters to stop you from joining them," Kai stated. "But I don't think the situation is as bad as we think. Blake helped us a lot at the last auction. If it wasn't for him, we would have had a much more difficult time getting out of there. No one knows the full strength of the Altered Hunters, but some assume it's at the level of one of the kings, if not even more powerful.
"If it wasn't for White Rose trying to go after them, maybe they would be more active. So I think having someone on the inside, observing the movements of such a strong force, is a good thing. As we rise up, I'm sure we'll gather the attention of the Altered Hunters anyway, if we haven't already caught their attention."
Innu was worried that maybe Kai would be concerned about his loyalty. Joining such an organisation and being with them for an entire year. At his age, a year was a significant part of his life. It would mean he would be part of the Altered Hunters for as long as he had been a part of the Howlers.
Yet Kai didn't worry about any of those things. His connection to the Howlers and Slough was strong, mainly due to Gary, who had saved the last few members of the old Black Rock Orphanage group, and because of the new Black Rock Orphanage group.
Betraying the Howlers would mean betraying them.
Thinking about what Kai had said, it reminded Innu of something, and he immediately slapped his head a few times.
"Crap, there was something else I needed to tell you. Honestly, I'm not sure if it's something we have to worry about or not, but..."
Seeing Innu struggle to get the words out more than anything else he had said, Kai started to worry a little.
"The head of the Altered Hunters Association is in Slough."
Unlike before, Kai wasn't calm; his eyes widened.
"You idiot, why didn't you say that first? If someone like that is in Slough and they found out about any one of us, we could be in serious trouble!"
Immediately, Kai headed out to where Marie and Olivia would be. It was a precaution, but he needed to be extra careful.
All of that led the others to discover an injured Marie and Olivia in the woods. Kai was the fastest of the group and ran straight past Olivia, heading directly for Marie. She was on her knees, trying to get up, but the pain in her stomach was still there.
"Are you okay? You have blood on your mouth. We need to take you to the hospital!" Kai panicked.ReadNovelFull.com
"It's okay. It doesn't hurt too much anymore. My body will heal itself," Marie answered. "Olivia, how is she? Is she okay?"
Austin and Innu were taking a look at Olivia. There appeared to be no serious wounds, but internally, they had been somewhat injured.
"Do you think it was the head Altered Hunter?" Austin asked. "For someone to be able to fight two werewolves at once and for them not to be here, they have to be at least that strong, right?"
"I'm really not sure," Innu answered, feeling guilty and like it was all his fault.
"I don't know if he was the head Altered Hunter or not," Olivia answered, being helped off the ground by Austin. "But I have a feeling in my gut, something that's telling me he was a vampire."
