Silence pervades, for so long, time seemed to have lost all meaning. Everyone watches in disbelief, mouths agape as the most powerful wolf to have ever lived lies on the on his back, defeated.
No one can believe...I can't believe it.
My body threatens to fail me, my soul threatens to forget me, my heart threatens to betray me...but I force them all in place with a will that eats into me. So much so that I feel a deep weakness taking root in me.
Falling my gaze, I shut my eyes, trying to halt the tears streaming down my cheeks. But I can't.
"Hahahahahaha." A sinister laugh reverberates into the air, becoming the only sound to resonate in the stadium. Elias relishes his victory, a victory he didn't earn. Yet he's so proud of it.
I force my gaze up to see him, see his cowardice. I touch the Bracelet on my hand, ready to take action. But first I have to meet Malcom. Without wasting any time I rise onto my feet.
