Chapter 5. Can We?

I knew that I was quickly slipping out from the grips of consciousness just mere moments before I was thrown back into my cage. As I was carried back into our disgusting little prison box of a room I could sense the distress coming from my brothers.

I knew that they would want to rage and lash out about the fact that I was taken and not them, but it wouldn't help out our situation. Only make it worse.

I wanted to reassure my brothers that I was fine, that everything would be okay, but I was too weak to reassure them. And I know deep down that everything is not okay.

Right now all that I want to do is sleep for a very long time.

Although I didn't even get that much sleep, I feel as though I barely got an hour worth of sleep. As exhausted as I was I couldn't sleep for long in this stupid cage, they aren't made for sleeping no matter how much my body wills it to be.

Have I said that before? I think I have but I need to make this fact crystal clear.

We. Can. Not. Sleep. In. These. Cages.

If I ever meet any type of person who designs cages them and me are going to have a very long chat. Even if I know that they have never been designed to hold people.

Well not since the ancient days anyway.

I could feel and smell the worry coming off both Jordan and Conner, but I wasn't ready to talk to them, I just wanted to keep my eyes squeezed shut and pretend that I was asleep.

But I cant pretend forever.

I groaned as I sat up. "Little wolf." They both whispered to me, worry laced into their voices.

I looked up to both of them, one on my right the other on my left, it made me sad that I couldn't look at both of them at once. I would also have my back turned to one.

"I'm fine." I croaked out forcing a weak smile to appear on my lips, even if they couldn't see it.

Sometimes forcing a smile can make days better for us all. Right?

They didn't believe me when I said I was fine, they both tried to move as close to me as they could without causing the cage to rattle, Conner was the only one to reach me.

I heard Jordan sigh, I know that all he wants to do is comfort me, to hug me and make everything better, it's the type of wolf that he is. Conner always feels guilty for being able to reach me, I don't know why.

Maybe it is because we can comfort each other while Jordan is alone and watching us.

As wolves we relish in the joys of being with each other, toughing and just being close.

I miss that. I know that everyone who is here against his or her will misses it.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I kept my voice soft just like a whisper being taken by the wind.

"We wanted to shield you from the dark truth of this place." Jordan admitted while Conner just hummed in agreement.

But the thing is, they haven't shielded me, I know that this is nothing but a house, well a building of horrors. Something that even our nightmares wouldn't be able to conjure up.

This is where we will all die.

"Did you see anything little wolf?" Conner asked me.

I raised my eyebrow in question only to realise that he probable couldn't see it. "What do you mean?"

"Were you awake?"

"Yes." I breathed out.

I just had to remember what I saw.

I heard only wolves in here suck in there breaths. Weren't others awake when they were brought back?

"What did you see?" Jordan asked moving closer to me, his cage rattled as he did.

I prayed that it didn't draw attention to our room. But how could it when there were no guards watching it.

"We are about five or six floors below ground level." I whispered, even if there was no one watching us by the door, I still didn't trust this place.

Not one fibre of my body trusted that we could talk openly.

Other wolves were starting to pay attention to our conversation, hoping that I could provide a way out.

"There are floors above us just like this with from what I could barely scent, people other then us." I didn't pay much attention when I was being carried down. But now that was thinking about it.

I smelt witches and vampires locked up in the other floors.

Why would they have all of us?

Unless...

"Other then us?" A wolf on the other side of the room asked

"Vampires and witches."

The room fell silent with that admission from me. "What else did you see?" Conner was begging me to go on.

"There are windows on the floors above us, some are sealed shut with metal shutters some had blinds. I don't know if they are shutters since the blinds were closed." I started to ramble a little my memory almost fuzzy.

"We can get out." A voice of hope filled the room.

"Or some of us can get out." A voice of reason over powered the hope in the room.

"Guards?" Jordan asked, as his voice was sombre.

I didn't want to answer, it would give them too much hope. But I needed to be honest. Lying would get us absolutely nowhere.

"None that I saw."

"We really do have a chance." You could smell it from everyone around the room, they were starting to have hope again. They believed that we could get out.

But deep down, in a place that all the other wolves were locking away we knew that not everyone could get out. I didn't think that we would all make it out.

I didn't trust that we weren't being watched. There were only two reasons for no one to be watching us. One is that they were getting cocky and didn't think that we would try anything. And two. They had a way to watch us that I didn't notice.

There could have cameras that I didn't notice, anything really. I was only barely hanging on when I was brought back here.

"Can we?" My voice brought the room back to completely silence.
