Narrator Pov.

After the quick and unexpected death that surrounded them, (Y/n) and his friends stood shocked not knowing what to do next. That is until (Y/n) suddenly collapses and a distant helicopter is heard.

Jace Pov.

I breathe a sigh of relief as I hear the rumble of a helicopter quickly making its way to us. But, my relief is cut short as I hear (Y/n)'s body fall to the ground a few feet behind me. I turn just in time to catch Jess trying to get to (Y/n).

"Step back Jess." I say sternly as I point the gun at her, aiming for her head before moving my sights down to her chest. I feel as everyone looks at me with a mixture of fear and anger, "W-what are you doing?!" Emma asks, her fear quickly dissipating and being replaced with rage as she steps forward ready to disarm me. I stay quiet for a moment, trying to figure out how to tell them I'd have to kill them if they went near (Y/n), even if I didn't want to do so, "I can't let any of you near (Y/n). Those are my orders..." I say sadly as I keep my eyes moving between everyone but never making eye contact with them.

Luckily, I don't have to avoid their gaze for too long as two transport helicopters start circling our position. Everyone in the group looks up to the helicopters incredibly confused, "Everyone! Just listen to what they say and you'll be alright!" I shout over the deafening sound of the helicopters as one starts landing not too far from us. Coming out of the helicopter is several armed soldiers who start forming a perimeter of the area, along with three familiar faces who start walking towards me.

The person in front of the group is wearing an extremely revealing black cloak that showed her large curves to the world but, she ignores it and dons a bright smile. Most people around the base know her as the first successful genetically enhanced soldier but her friends simply call her Kate.

Next to her was a smaller Hyena in a navy blue tactical sleeveless hoodie which seemed too big for him and a pair of tan cargo pants with a white lab jacket lazily tied around his waist. Now, I don't know him personally even though he's tried really hard to make me feel comfortable around him but, I'd rather refer to him formally: Anthony Price, Head Scientist of Gene Research.

(Can someone please tell me what dog breed he is? I'm horrible with breeds and I can't figure it out for the life of me so I guessed...)

Finally, there is the rare sight of a brightly colored dragon wearing a medical uniform consisting of a digital camouflage button-up with matching cargo pants which held pouches on both legs with all of the tools she'd need to save a life. I watch as Gc splits off from Late and Price to go inspect the wounds of my friends, specifically Nick who seems to have reopened his stab wound.

I slip the pistol I had in my hands into the back part of my pants and stand at attention as Kate and Price walk up to me, "I thought you were supposed to bring a maximum of three people excluding (Y/n) to the extraction? Yet, here you are with a party!" She says jokingly. But her tone quickly changes when she sees the bodies on the ground to one of confusion and sympathy, "Miller, what happened here...?" She asked looking me in the eyes.

"After being attacked, my friends and I made our way to the Fang residence as Bishop Fang had a truck which we could use to escape the warzone. We felt minimal resistance on our way here but we were jumped by civilian Daniel Clark with a rifle. He shot both Bishop and Alex resulting in Bishop's death." I stare back into Kate's eyes as I report what had happened. She looks over to Alex's body confused, "And what about the other who was shot?" She asked looking at the small pool of blood that has formed under Alex, "You'd be surprised how tough a human skull is Ma'am."

She nods and walks to a few soldiers to give them a command, most likely to check the casualties and start loading everyone aboard the second helicopter which has landed by now. But, Anthony grabs my attention while kneeling next to the unconscious body of (Y/n), "So Jace, how is his health? Any serious injuries or mental health problems?" He asks while typing away on a holographic wristwatch. I glance over to Jackie who was still holding her father's body before responding, "Well sir, he did just watch his father drown in his own blood..." I say sadly causing him to freeze for a moment.

He then looks over to where Jackie is and sighs as looks at (Y/n), "That's not anything I can fix..." He says just as sad as I had. But, he then gets an idea as his ears perk up as he turns to me, "But, maybe you can... Could you help him through this, you're his friend after all and... let's just say you have the unfortunate pleasure of knowing what he'll be going through." He says, attempting not to offend me or make me angry.

"I-I don't know sir... I'm not sure if I'm finished grieving my own father..." I say as memories of my father flash through my mind. Anthony jumps to his feet with a look of shock as he nearly losses his glasses and starts stuttering, "oh! I-I-I... Fuck, I-I'm sorry. But, maybe you could help each other?" he says putting a hand on my shoulder. I give a small nod as he returns it with his signature goofy smile, "Good. Now, how have you been, I haven't seen you in a couple years! Well, aside from once when I spoke to you about an update on (Y/n) but I haven't truly spoken to you in forever!" He says signaling for two guards to load (Y/n) onto the primary helicopter. I scratch the back of my neck and look at him with a small smile, "Well, I got a girlfriend. I just hope I still have one by the time we get back to base..." I say as I look into the panicked eyes of Redd.

Melissa Pov.

I let out a grunt as I help Nick up into the helicopter as a female dragon takes him and lies him down on a table in the back. Looking back outside, my heart jumps a little as I see Alex's body be put on the other helicopter. At first, I believed he was dead but I couldn't tell anymore as they were leaving both of the other bodies behind to be buried. But this feeling takes a quick 180 when I look over to where (Y/n) had fallen and see Jace, a Hyena, and a cloaked bat, wolf hybrid standing over him.

I move deeper into the helicopter and over to the left side of the row of seats along the wall, taking a seat next to Redd who still seemed a bit shaken up about what's happened the past few hours. I watch as everyone comes up the ramp and takes their seats around us. Looking back to Redd, I see that she is still bothered by something.

"What do you think is gonna happen next?" I ask Redd trying to get her mind off of whatever was bothering her. But, she doesn't respond to me. She just continues to silently stare out of the helicopter and at Jace who is speaking to the Hyena. I sigh in discomfort and look over to Nick and see that he has already started flirting with the dragon, although, it's much different from usual.

"He-... He didn't hesitate." I looked over to Redd who had choked out the sentence, "As soon as he had the gun in his hands... He pulled the trigger." She said, fear evident in her quiet words. Even though she was quiet, her words had caught the attention of everyone on the helicopter, including Nick and the dragon treating him, "He didn't try and speak to him, he just... j-just-" She isn't able to finish her sentence as she starts breaking down into tears. I quickly bring her into a hug as she cries into my hoodie muttering "Jace killed him." repeatedly while everyone watches her with sympathy.

Narrator Pov.

As Redd continues to cry, the group of friends take off on a set course for an unknown destination. Meanwhile, Jace walks over to Butch and looks down at the man he had killed. He picks up the rifle that was responsible for most likely a number of deaths on the mutts journey to catch the group, and looked at the carving on the grip of the gun. Surprised, he looks back at his unconscious friend, eyeing the exposed tattoo which had the same runes as the carving did...
