《Fixing Each Other》Chapter 37
Advertisement
I looked at the small girl as she slept on my lap. She was the only one who hadn't been violently beaten. Instead, they mess with her psyche, which I believe is absolutely disgusting. I've been here a few weeks and I hated how they mess with her. She's a goddamn child. I ran my hand through her hair, listening to her slowed heart beat. I wanted to get her out of here. Eiya didn't deserve this. She's barely even a child. None of them deserved this. What this guy was doing was inhumane. He... he's the real monster... he has to die.
I growled. And I'm going to make damn sure I will be the one to do it! Eiya whimpered, and I felt tears pooled in my eyes before softly rolling down my cheeks, I sobbed silently as I held the sleeping child in my arms. I saw Jessie limp her way over to me. Her face was scrunched up and I could tell she was in a great deal of pain. I looked her in the eyes and I held onto her hand and focused hard on trying to ease her pain. I was weak, due to one of Jarred's, famous injections and I knew this was going to hurt but I didn't care.
I watched her eyes widen as her pain transferred to me. I grunted as it felt like my knee cap was just shattered. Another wave of pain slammed into me and I felt my head go dizzy. But I persevered. Jessie shook her head "Bridget stop, that's enough, you're hurting yourself." She hissed, getting the attention of everyone in the room. I shook my head. For some reason, despite the weakness that racked my soul I felt as if my body was filling up with this indescribable power as I thought of everyting Jarred had put me thorugh... had put my friends through. I was just so goddamn tired of feeling powerless.
The full moon was tonight and I along with every werewolf felt extra powerful tonight. I opened my eyes, and I heard a few collective gasps as I grinned. My teeth elongated and I felt the partial shift coming along. My face tingled as my snout re alinged itself. I felt my body morph into my beast. I could have just fully shifted but I was more powerful this way though it took a lot more out of me. I carefully took Eiya off my lap and Trish cuddled up to her not once taking her eyes off me. I couldn't form words properly but I could still talk well grunt out letters. I stalked over to the bars and gripped them tightly. I felt sharp shocks but there wasn't a deep burn like there usually was. I blamed it on the shift before I pulled the door towards me.
It didn't budge so I did it again and again until I felt the lock snap. I turned to the others morphing back into myself. For some reason everything seemed to be in clearer focus but I could see the shock written on their faces even without this hightened sense. I cracked my neck and sat back down casually glancing back up at everyone.
"We're going to need a plan so snap out of it and help me figure out how we are going to use this to our advantage." I said harshly. They all nodded.
After twenty minutes we had a plan. I grinned as I thought about the outcome. We could go home.

I straddled Evan and placed my hands gently around his throat not actually applying any pressure. He winked at me but I just rolled my eyes with a smile on my face. Carlson rushed up to the bars and yelled out a loud help. The door was unlocked but it was still shut so they wouldn't know it.
Jessie and Trish "attempted" to pull me off but I snarled at them as the guards came, there were three of them, all human. Evan pretended to fight me off before pretending to pass out. The humans fumbled with the lock. I could see Carlson snigger as the short stocky blonde basically fell through the door. They rushed to me and before they touched me I jumped up and snapped the first guys neck. I was so fast his body hadn't even hit the floor yet before I attacked the second guy. Whilst I was fighting Jessie had rushed the younger girls out of the cell. I heard the shuffle of their feet as they bolted down the halls.
I killed the second guy and he dropped to the floor with a thud. Evan punched the last guy knocking him unconsious. I kicked him in the head so hard his neck snapped causing me to grin. Evan cringed and I held back an apology. You don't get my reputation from nothing.
"Get their uniforms and get out of here. I'll distract them whilst you find the girls." I said and Evan shook his head.
"We're not going to just abaondon you!" He hissed. I didn't want to do what I did but I had no choice.
"Find the girls and go!" I growled my power slipping into my tone. Their heads dropped as the followed my comand but I could see how agaisnt it they were. I rushed out the cell and began yelling as I ran down the hall in the oposite direction that everyone else did. I caused quite a bit of comotion before someone noticed me.
I was being chased by six people. My heart was beating widley in my chet as my heart began pumping pure adrenaline into my veins. I whizzed around the corner and roughly pulled my body to avoid an oncoming attack. The guy was running at me so when he didn't catch me he slammed into someone else. I heard him cuss before he groaned hitting the floor. I smirked to myself and picked up the pace. I ducked into the first room I saw locking it behind me. My back was agaisnt the door as far away from the glass as possible. I slapped a hand over my mouth to slow my breathing. I heard them stop outside the door before they tried openening it causing my panic to skyrocket.
"It's locked, she won't be in there! Come on we gotta find her." He said with a deep growl. I ducked behind the desk and collected myself I had been so caught up in hiding from my persuors I hadn't bothered to check if the room was safe to be in. I took a deep breath and listend to my surroundings. I heard a heart beat. One very anxious heart beat. I heard whoever it was walk over to where I was hiding. Without warnig I jumped up and hit out at the person. I punched them so hard their helmet shattered under the force of my blow. I heard a pained scream. Until the person spoke and I felt my heart stutter in shock.

"Fuck! Bridget what the hell!" She hissed holding her bleeding nose.
Rose!
"Rose?" I whispered. Her eyes locked onto mine unshed tears sparkling in them whether that was becuase I had just punched her or becasue she was emotional I don't know either way I sobbed out a laugh as she flung herself at me pulling me into a hug. I hugged her tightly, so tightly I was afraid if I let go she'd dissapear and I'd wake up and this would have all been a dream.
She pulled back and then somthing occued to me, a thought that sent a shock full of terror throughout my entire body. I gripped her shoulders and stared into her dark eyes trying not to cringe at the blood dripping from her nose "How in the hell did you get here Rose! I swear to the Goddess if they hurt you I'll slaughter every goddamn fucker in this place." I snarled my body shaking with anger. Rose shook her head.
"We found you. I broke away from the crowd and offered myself over to this chick. I attacked her and stole her uniform. They didn't touch me I promise B. Calm down please." She rushed out a soft calming edge to her tone. I ran a hand through my matted hair before I assesed her. She seemed okay. I nodded puting pin in my anger... for now.
Then an idea hit me.
"Do you still have her handcuffs?" I asked and she nodded, "I'm gonna need you to act like one of them you have to handcuff me, if we pass anyone tell them you're taking me to interrogation there's an exit on that floor by the stairwell, we'll regroup with the others and then we can escape this hell hole." I explained and she nodded she went to get the hancuffs before something occured to her.
"Bridget... these cuffs are silver, they'll burn you." She mumbled worriedly. I smiled softly at her before shaking my head.
"I've been injected with more silver than whats in a goddamn cutlery set these past few days. I can handle it little warrior." I joked causing her to shake her head. She clasped the cuffs on and I waited for the burn but it didnt't come. Instead I felt the same tingles as I did when I broke open the cell door. Rose gasped.
"It's not burning you."
"Are you sure they are silver?" I asked just as confused. She then showed me the welts on her hands.
I couldn't dwell on this at the moment but I'm pretty sure it has something to do with thoes injections. "We'll sort this out later we need to hurry up and regroup." I said dismissing the thought she gripped me and pushed me out of the door. She hardened her face and began pushing me we saw a guard he looked over and began storming over he attacked Rose but I pushed myself in the way. He tried to sidestep me but I kicked him.
"Bridget." He hissed and I rolled my eyes.
"Don't attack my sister and I wont hit you." I said with a said with a smirk, Carlson stopped instantaly and apologised, he shot her a dazzling smile full of charm.
"My apologise beautiful." He said with a wink causing her to blush I narrowed my eyes at him before I kicked him again.
"Don't flirt with my sister either you ass."
He laughed at me before he grabbed my other arm and began leading me towards the others. Apparently there was a big fight outside so most of the men were protecting this place. I knew it was Jerome. He had come for me.
A few minuets later we had re grouped Eiya was in Evans arms tears rolling down her face. I broke the cuffs off and rushed over to her. "What happned?!" I asked but he ignored me instead he was staring at Rose and she too was staring at him. My mouth dropped open as I realsed why. They are mates. Evan shook his head with a large grin on his face he looked at me before galcning at Eiya.
"She was wrorried about you." He mumbled I smiled softly at the crying child. I kissed her on the forehead I looked up at Evan.
"You hurt her, I'll kill you myself." I threatned with a sickly sweet smile. He shook his head with a smile on his face.
"Wouldn't dream of it." He said glancing towards my sister.
"Get them out if here!" I ordred glancing at the boys Rose immediantly protested announcing her dissaproval.
"I'm coming with you." She stated causing me to growl.
"Like hell you are, there is no way I'm risking your life. Absolutely not Rose now go with you mate and leave this place." I gritted out glaring at her. She shook her head worry clear on her face.
"I'm not leaving you alone I lost you once I'll be damned if I stand here and do it again." She whispered my hard attitude softened slightly but I shook my head before a voice spoke up from behind me.
"She won't be alone." The voice travelled through me like an electric shock. I turned around slowly and my heart started beating faster then ever. There he stood his arms casually crossed over his chest. His clothes were splattered with blood. His fiery eyes stared at me with a deep intensity. I grinned at him before I flung myself at him. He welcomed me with open arms. I jumped up and wrapped my legs around his waist. He held me close to him his arms were locked tightly around me. I blinked back tears of joy as he murmured into my ear.
"I missed you." He said softly. I pulled back and laughed before brining his lips to mine. My body lit up as our lips connected sending sparks of fire into my very soul. He slipped his tongue into my mouth and I felt electric. I could smell his desire and it excited me further. I pulled back and rested my head on his. His gaze entrapped me and I grinned.
"I love you." I whispered he looked taken back. It took him a moment to collect himself and I felt rejection pang through me as he stared at me. His hand cupped my face and he smiled so brightly I was stunned.
"I love you." He stated bringing my lips back to his.
I've missed him I thought blissfully.

Embrace the Blade [Drafts 1&2]
James Ransom grew up unable to do the simplest of life’s tasks. Legs were malformed; he was in a wheel chair as long as he could remember. Suffering from a severe form of muscular exhaustion making him unable to use his hands for long despite his resolve to fight through it. All the challenges facing him he still was able to enjoy reading and video games; but a tragic car accident will change his life forever and perhaps he will be given the opportunity to reincarnate into another world. Special thanks to Mikaelle for the Synopsis. This is my first book/fic so constructive critisism would be very nice. Expect a lot of grammatical errors but hopefully not too many spelling errors. Explanation for the tags; Action/Adventure/Fantasy: These don't really need an explanation, Comedy: I'll try to be funny hopefully I won't fail miserably, Romance: I like romantic sub-plots, LitRPG: No explanation needed but I am using my own system, Reincarnation/Summoned Hero: Not sure which one applies here I'm inclined to think both so I put both, Reader Interactive: I put this one here for my own amusment I'll allow everyone to help create the MC's love interest and maybe a few other things we will also hold a few contests.. Male Lead: self explanitory, Magic: Also easy, Strong Lead: Think of this as more of a weak-to-strong tag the MC will be OP but not till later in the story. Warning: Since this fic is labeled as 'Strategy' I believe that the readers should know as much as possible about the situations presented in the story so they can reach their own conclusions about how a fight could have been won or lost. That means: there are a lot of information dumps early on. I don't know how long I'll be able to write this fic but I promise to keep my few readers informed in case I decide to drop it or something.
