Fighting Spirit Series Chapter 83: Where's Jack and Mei?

**Lexi: **

“These bastards are worse than cockroaches.” I linked Max laughing as I dodge a vamp-bear with glassy brown eyes.

“Keep your eyes open.” Max replied as I turned my gaze towards the entrance, seeing a tall tanned man wrapped in a sheet sling fighting off a frenzied vampire-wolf.

Amelia appeared behind him with the same sheet sling, slicing her claws against the vamp-wolf as the guy grabbed Amelia dragging her out of the way of a flying tree trunk.

“The pups.” Argo growled, feeling his body tremble in rage as his feet pushed against the resisting soft snow-covered ground. Lunging through the air covering them with our body, slamming the trunk against the ground.

“Lexi.” Amelia screamed as another tree trunk swung through the air like a baseball bat colliding against my rib cage, sending me flying through the air into a large snow mound.

“Max. Amelia and the guy with her have the twins.” I linked as I slowly crawled out from the snow mound, met with a solid fist to the snout, cracking Argo’s jaw.

Argo grew enraged as he grabbed the next fist flying through the air, slamming the guy to the ground with a loud cracking thud. Deep vibrations of the ground stopped the guy frozen as Argo grabbed his head with both hands, crushing his skull with a loud thunderous cracking roar.

“CLEAR THE AREA!” A loud Russian voice echoed through the air as the ground shook violently under our feet.

Large cracks appeared in the ground as everyone took off running in all directions. Large chunks of ground broke away, revealing the hidden castle labyrinth of hallways and once grand rooms.

“Lexi!” Max shouted as he sped up beside me on a snowmobile bouncing over the shaking ground.

Shifting mid-air as I jumped onto the snowmobile, slipping off grabbing the seat-rail, snow surfing behind as Max weaved around large craters. Jumping over a massive crater that formed in front landing the damn thing like a professional daredevil.

“YOU’RE FUCKING CRAZY BRO!” I shouted as Max swerved to miss a sled team approaching from the south. Xander, Desmond, Dominic, and Seth went to work clearing out the remaining hybrids in their final attempt to fight us.

“What the fuck are you two doing?” Seth linked as Max turned sharply, flinging my ass up onto the back of the snowmobile, stopping abruptly watching a massive crater swallow the snowy iced over landscape.

“Where’s Jack and Mei?” Seth shouted running over towards us, watching Max climb off the snowmobile covered in a thin layer of snow and ice.

Seth stopped staring at the scene as Max shook his body out, stalking towards Seth like a predator. Scooping him into a tight embrace, crashing his lips against Seth whose body went limp against the searing inferno of the kiss.

“Now is not the time boys.” Desmond yelled as he and Dominic approached us scanning the landscape that once was a white-covered blanket of coldness.

“Where’s Amelia and that guy?” I shouted scanning the surroundings, trying to locate them.

“Shit! SHIT!” Max screamed running his hands into his hair, pulling firmly, pacing back and forth.

“What’s wrong with Amelia and who is this guy?” Xander asked looking sporadically at the landscape of a giant crater in the ground.

“They have Nikola and Micah.” I shouted listening for anything against the raging barrage of noises polluting the air.

“WHAT?” The guys screamed as Desmond and Dominic went ‘poofing’.

“Where’s Jack and Mei?” Seth hollered as he paced looking at the scene in front of us.

“We managed to land about fifty clicks, south. Allister and his pack joined us as we ran here. When we arrived at the entrance, the ground opened up with “Cocktailed” maniacs. Jack vanished into the underground castle.” Max said as he paced around looking at me with large concerned eyes.

“This guy you said that was with Amelia, was he tall and tan?” Xander asked looking at us with questioning eyes, examining our wounds, feeling the stinging of the snowflakes landing on the still opened slashes, cuts, and bruises.

“Yeah.” I said looking over my shoulder watching as Xander applied bandages to the larger slash mark across my back. Breathing deeply snapping his eyes up to us with a large smile.

“His name is Gus. I met him while being held captive. He managed to escape with me, telling me that if I ever needed help to call. So, I did. He happens to be Alpha Allister’s nephew.” Xander said seeing four silhouettes appear in the hazy cloud of snow.

Small cries filled the dense air as Amelia, Desmond, Dominic, and the guy, Gus appeared.

Amelia had small scratches on her face, bloody fingers, and a deep slash on her right leg. Gus looked a little better, a solid black eye that was swollen over with a deep cut under his right eye. Everyone gasped a deep breath when the white sheet slings appeared with two small bumps.

“Amelia.” Xander shouted as he sprinted over to her grabbing her in his arms, kissing her face. Trailing his nose along her neck, breathing in deeply as he peered down at the white sheet bump.

“Guys meet Nikola and Micah Rockwell.” Amelia announced happily pulling the sheet down exposing a curled up ball of cuteness with black locks. Gus did the same exposing Micah with his same matching locks.

“Now, will someone answer my question; where’s Jack and Mei?” Seth shouted pacing harder as Max pulled him into his chest, crossing his arms over the front of his heaving chest.

“Aeros showed up as we were escaping. Mei handed us the babies and told us to protect them. We left her fighting Aeros in the grand hall; then just as we reached the grand staircase, Jack found us, and we told him where to find Mei. He kissed both boys and told us you two dunderheads were fighting above.” Amelia laughed pointing at Max and me.

“Fuck! That means that is from them.” Max said pointing at the massive crater where flat ground used to be.
