Averova gathered enough supplies for a team of In and rushed back out. When she made it to the outside of the training held, she bumped right into someone coming at her way.

I was Glen

“Aurora” he gasped astonisheilly, “I just came back from the bar and saw the warehouse’s light was on… What happened?!”

“The rogues attacked us. At Fox Town Aurora said hastily.

“WHAT? How did

“I don’t have time to explain! Just tell Steven and Jeff about this. And come with us if you will!” Aurora cried and rushed

Rivena and the team arrived at the North Gate at the same times Aurora. They each grabbed a weapon, shifted into wolves, and started heading towards the Fox Town

Aurora’s heart was pounding wildly as she dashed across the dark forest with her soldiers. Her heart was filled with worries. and anxiety.

A small part of her kept hoping that this wasn’t real. That rogues didn’t just sneak up to them and attack their village. And that everything was simply a mixed-up…

-Till she smelt the burning smell in the air.

“Camma Aurora! Look!” Kaelan gasped behind her back.

Aurora didn’t need him to remind her of what was happening in the distance-it was quite hard to miss.

Flames could be seen rising through the top of the forest, painting the dark sky into scarlet red. They could already hear the sound of people screaming, wolf howling and houses crushing down in fire.

The temperature kept rising as they approached. When they finally arrived, the place had already turned into a hell of heat and blazing fire.

Hard to recognize that this place used to be a small and peaceful village.

“Gamma, what do we do?” Rivena gasped.

“You take 5 people to put down the fire and rescue the injured,” Aurora said urgently. “The rest come with me. Look for any signs of the rogues!”

“Yes!”

They split up.

Aurora rushed down the road with her eyes searching for suspicious figures. But anywhere she looked, she saw nothing but ruins and ashes.

It was like the rogues had vanished in thin air.

“G**a!” Kaelan called right behind her, “There is someone in that house!”

The roof of the house had fell down because of the fire. And there were weak groans coming out of the ruins.

Aurora came to help Kaelan. Together they lifted the roof and pulled a man out of it.

“Sir! Can you hear me?” Aurora knelt down by his side and asked, “Where are the rogues? Have you seen them?”

hat the man seemed traumatized. He covered his face and kept streaming in fear, “Don’t No-Please don’t kill me-1 am begging you!”

“It’s OK. You aur sale now. Just tell me where the rogues ate.

ו!

-I don’t know! Stop torturing me! Please I am begging you!” the men wailed hysterically.

Aurora sighed and said to one of his soldiers, “Take him to Rivera. Treat his wounds and keep him safe.”

The soldier nodded and carried the man away.

Aurora and Karlan continued their searches. One by one, they rescued nearly 20 people out of the fire, but none of them could tell where exactly the rogues were.

These people were either scared as hell or injured too severely to say anything.

As frustrated as Aurora was, she couldn’t blame them.

These people spend their whole lives living in a peaceful small town.

Who would have thought the rogues would attack a place like this?

A while later, Glen and his men arrived.

“Aurora” he cried running towards her, “Any sign of the rogues?

Not yet. These b**ds vanished in thin air!” Aurora snarled.

“F**k! What do we do then? Shall we draw back? The wind tonight is helping with the fire. Maybe we should focus on treating the injured first!”

Aurora hesitated, clenching her fists in frustration.

She knew that Glen was probably right.

But she didn’t want to give up looking for rogues just yet.

There were too many questions piling up in her mind.

Like how did the rouges cross the border’s lookout post?

How did they pick this perfect timing?

And how did they know the way so well and evacuate just in time?

There was only one answer to all these questions-

Somebody was helping the rogues from the inside.

If she let this go now, she would never find out who the mole was. And they would definitely face another bigger defeat in the near future.

Making up her mind, Aurora turned to Glen and said, “I am going into the woods to chase after them.”

“What? No!” Glen snapped, “Don’t let your anger control you. It’s too dark out there and you don’t have any backups! The night and the woods are both working on the rogue’s advantage=”

“But here is the question! How did the rogues pick their target so well?” Aurora said hastily, “The rogues had never been here before. How did they know Fox Town is a small village surrounded by dense woods with very few armed soldiers?”

A horrified look appeared on his face.

“Aurora, you are not saying that…”

“It’s too early to make any conclusion. But I am going into the woods!” Aurora snapped.

“But to which direction? The forest extends up to 20 miles on all sides. You can’t finish searching the place in time!”

Aurora Int her lips anxiously.

Glen was right again.

She didn’t have a clue about where she should go. The rogue’s scent was covered by the strong smell of fire. And their trials disguised by ashes.

Should she pick a random direction?

Let her gut lead her?

Just then, a distant howling interrupted her line of thoughts.

It was a very strange howling, different from the kind that Aurora and her own kind spoke, like a foreign tone.

“It was the rogues!” Glen gasped in excitement, “But what does it mean? Does anyone speak the rogue’s language?” “To the West!” said Kaclan abruptly.

Kaelan was standing behind Aurora’s back the whole time. He looked up to the other now and said in an urgent tone:

“This rogue was calling out to his fellows, asking them to meet him at the creek down the West. We should follow them

now!”
