He was lost in the bloodlust.

All he wanted was more.

Every wolf he came across was a new target for him. And damn it felt good to feel his teeth sinking into flesh.

He heard fighting going on outside and knew there would be plenty of things he could kill out there.

He needed it.

Running down the stairs, he was just about to run out the front entrance when he scented something familiar.

Turning, he saw a wolf with a coat much like his own pinning an orange and white wolf to the floor. His nostrils flared as he scented the air. All he could smell was blood.

But there was something about the little wolf and tugged at him.

He snarled and flew forward, tackling the alpha. They rolled across the floor but sprang up immediately.

The alpha snarled at him, his upper lip curling to show his blood stained teeth. Was it from the other wolf? The thought of that really pissed him off and he let out a growl that was so loud, it could be considered a roar.

The other flinched at his dominance and even looked away from him. This allowed him to fly forward and sink his teeth into the alpha's neck. He growled and started twisting his head back and forth viciously. He could feel the flesh ripping in his grasp.

Then he was slammed by another wolf and he yelped in response, releasing the alpha in his mouth.

He turned to see a red wolf protecting the soot one.

"San!" A voice came from his left. He glanced to see a boy with brown hair and kind face staring at him while supporting a pregnant omega boy.

He blinked several times.

San...

San...

Was that... His name?

He shook his head and backed away.

Images flashed through his mind, but they were fuzzy. Images of him... In a human body.

Lavender slammed his senses and he howled as his two selves fought to fall in sync again.

His eyes flew to where the orange and white omega was laying on the floor. To where a giant black alpha was running at him. To where a silver wolf jumped in front of the omega and right into the alpha's jaws.

The distraction was enough to give the two alphas in front of him a chance to attack.

No, they weren't just two alphas.

They were Jasper and Caius. He understood now. The bloodlust threatened to come back as he ran to meet them.

San ducked under Jasper and went for his twin's throat again. He missed just barely but recovered in time to lock his jaw onto his front leg. Caius cried out as he fell to the floor again.

Jasper came up behind him and dug his claws into San's back leg. He released Caius to whirl around and attack the red wolf. But Caius then went for his back legs.

He was having a hard time focusing enough to try and fend off two attackers.

It was too much.

They were too strong.

Time seemed to stop for Wooyoung as he saw Alistar close his jaw around Lizbeth's throat. She gave him one final nod before her head was severed from her body.

The alpha licked his lips and stared down and Wooyoung. He snarled, making Wooyoung twist on the floor. He was trying to force him to shift.

If he shifted he would be completely helpless.

Alistar stood over him, laughing as he watched Wooyoung try to fight him.

Wooyoung whimpered and felt himself starting to change, when a large tan and black wolf jumped onto Alistar's back, while a multicolor one latched onto his shoulder.

This released the alpha's hold on him and Wooyoung was able to push himself off the ground. He then threw caution to the wind and also went after the alpha, snapping at his other side.

A yelp came from behind him and he turned to see San struggling with his brothers.

Yunho detached from Alistar's other side and ran to help him, pulling Jasper from behind.

Alistar spun around, trying to throw his attackers off, but Jongho had a good grip. So did Wooyoung. He bit down several times on the alpha's shoulder, drawing blood each time.

A flash of movement came from his right and he saw Hunter's carrying prisoners up from below. Yeosang and Hongjoong would appear too.

Do you need us? Hongjoong asked, pausing when he saw the scene in front of him.

No! Keep helping the others. Jongho answered.

Wooyoung nearly let go when he heard his alpha's voice. He looked up and saw Jongho's gaze soften with their eyes met.

But then Alistar fell to the ground and rolled over, smashing both wolves beneath him. Wooyoung yelped and tried to twist to get back on his feet, but the alpha pressed a paw to his throat and snarled at him.

He was trying to get him to shift again...

.

Yunho did his best to stay in contact with Jasper as they fought next to San and Caius. He didn't want to give the alpha an opportunity to make him submit, so he did his best to always stay on the offensive.

Jasper was a formidable alpha though and could easily dodge Yunho's attacks.

But he wouldn't give up. Not after what they had done to his family.

There was a loud yelp from behind them. Both he and Jasper turned to look at the two soot wolves going after each other. It was impossible to tell who was who... They may not have been identical in human form, but their wolves were.

Yunho, as painful as it was, tore his gaze away from the fighting wolves and lunged for Jasper. He sank his teeth into his front leg and used his body weight to pin the alpha to the ground before yanking his head back and ripping out a chuck of flesh.

Jasper's cry tore through the hall and several eyes came to look at them.

The black alpha moved away from where he had Wooyoung pinned and advanced on him.

The two soot wolves rolled away, too engrossed in their own fight to break apart. Both of them were bleeding heavily.

Yunho snarled and locked his jaws around Jasper's throat, eyeing the advancing alpha, who straightened out and let out a deep, guttural growl and shook Yunho's core.

Both he and Wooyoung sank to the floor.

Just as the alpha was about to strike him, a large group of wolves ran into the hall and surrounded him. He spun in a circle, snarling at all of them.

Yunho watched with a breaking heart as several of the newcomers cried out when they saw Lizbeth's broken body...

It was the wolves from the settlement.

.

San couldn't let his attention stray as his brother attacked him. They were a blur of teeth and claws as they both tried to get the upper hand.

He could feel his strength waning as he lost blood.

But he wouldn't give up. He had to protect his pack. And he had to make his brother pay for what he did to Wooyoung.

At one point, he managed to rip part of Caius' ear off, causing him to falter and cry out, but he recovered quickly and went for San's side.

They were both evenly matched, but he knew he wanted it more. He could see the fear in his brother's eyes.

San snarled at him one more time and Caius flinched. He quickly tried to cover it up by lunging forward anyway. San sidestepped him and knocked him to the ground.

.

Jongho watched as more and more wolves surrounded the alpha.

He almost made the mistake of sighing with relief, but he had to keep his hold on the alpha's neck. It was too thick for him to do any major damage, but it at least slowed him down.

The alpha started laughed at the wolves forming around him. He brought one large paw back and sent several of them flying to the side. Jongho became a limp attachment as the alpha spun around in circles.

He did the best he could to get a foothold on his back, and sometimes he could and he would pull his head back sharply, trying to rip out flesh, but the alpha was too strong.

Jongho searched for his back and saw Yunho and San fighting off to the side. Hongjoong and Yeosang came out supporting a heavily pregnant beta who looked like she was barely conscious. A Hunter took her and they ran back down the stairs.

And Wooyoung...

Where was Wooyoung??

.

.

.

.

Yunho turned back to where Jasper was lying on the floor. The alpha was gasping for air and fear was evident in his eyes.

He had torn out a big enough chuck of his leg that he couldn't stand up and there was already a large pool of blood at his feet.

The beta grinned and advanced on him. This was one of the few times he wished he could speak as a wolf. He longed to tell Jasper just how much he was going to enjoy this.

The alpha whimpered and backed away from him. He let out a few whines, trying to get Caius' attention, but San was keeping him busy.

Yunho curled his lips up and sprang forward.

Jasper tried to roll on his back to deflect the attack, but he was too weak. Yunho leapt clear over him and sank his fangs into the back of his neck.

The alpha cried out in pain and tried to pull away.

Oh how Yunho longed to drag this out and make him suffer.

But there was no time.

Yunho clamped down harder, feeling his teeth connect with bone. Jasper screamed in pain, and then was silent.

.

.

.

.

Caius whined as he turned to face where Jasper now hung limp in Yunho's jaws.

That was his mistake.

San was on him in a heartbeat, latching onto his throat and pinning him to the ground. He pressed his front feet into his twin's chest, keeping him pinned so that he could get a better grip on him.

He could feel the blood lust starting to come back as he snarled down at his prey.

It was almost too easy, like Caius had lost the will to fight after Jasper had died.

Good.

It just made this so much easier.

San turned and grabbed the alphas front leg in his mouth and twisted his head back and forth until the bone snapped.

Caius cried out in pan and tried to throw San off him, but he was too panicked to fully concentrate now. He whined as San grabbed his back leg and snapped the bone there.

He snarled, licking his lips as he forced Caius to roll over and he repeated the action with his other two legs, making him completely helpless.

It sounded like the fighting outside was just about over, so he turned his focus to where Alistar was fighting the settlement wolves. Jongho was still attached to his back.

Alistar swung around again, knocking several wolves to the side with a sickening crunch. He was foaming at the mouth as he grabbed one wolf and his jaws and squeezed. Blood poured from its sides as he drained the life from him.

He was too strong...

But that didn't stop Yunho from running forward and latching onto the alpha's hind leg. San shook his head to try and clear his thought as he followed the beta's lead, running for Alistar's other leg.

He was knocked aside by a swing of the alpha's paw and rolled aside. When he tried to get up he winced. At least one of his ribs had to be broken with how much it hurt. He whimpered but forced himself up.

Another settlement wolf was dismembered by Alistar.

Time was running out.

Then time stopped for him as he saw his worst fear running straight for the alpha in his human form.

.

.

.

.

Wooyoung had shifted as soon as he rolled away from Alistar. There were so many wolves in the room to distract him, he knew he could look for something to help.

Trying to block out the cries of pain and the snarls behind him, he looked around the room for anything...

There had to be something he could use...

The only problem was, since they could turn into wolves, there was no need for weapons.

He yelped as a wolf was thrown into the column next to him. It didn't get up... But the impact had shattered the column, leaving splintered wood lying next to him.

Wooyoung ran up to it and started to pull at the wood, hoping to get one long enough. He hissed in pain as splinters sliced his hands.

Finally he pulled off a long one, almost twice as long as he was tall. Both ends were sharp too.

He turned around, seeing the few settlement wolves and his family losing the fight against Alistar.

Gripping the pole in his hand, Wooyoung ran forward. "HEY!"

Alistar turned to face him and snarled. He shook his entire boding and finally managed to dislodge Jongho and Yunho. They fell to the floor and tried to get back on their feet.

Wooyoung could hear them calling for him to stop, but he blocked them out.

Nothing was going to stop him now.

He watched as the alpha ran at him. He growled out a command and Wooyoung fell to his knees in submission.

The alpha's jaws opened up wide, ready to rip him in half.

Wooyoung took a deep breath and called on his wolf for strength. Together they pushed through their submission and he raised the pole up just as Alistar lunged for him.

Their bodies collided. He was forced back and he could feel the wood slicing his palms open. A paw connected with his shoulder.

The black wolf landed on top of him and he felt the pole snap in half.

The last thing Wooyoung could understand was not being able to breath.
