Chapter 31 - The Truth

It's nighttime in the woods and it's dark

The leaves rustle and the owls hoot

It's quite and you see Connor running through the woods as he looks up a see the moon closer and bigger than usual

It's a Supermoon

Connor chases after a woman figure but stops after she disappears 

He looks and turns and sees something 

He slowly approaches it and its a dead body

He looks closer and sees its Dominic and it causes him to jump back in fear and shock

He then pants hard and turns to his left where he sees Cassidy body also

He then starts to run in fear but sees Dylan, Jessica, Summer, AJ, Caleb, Lapis and Tiffany all dead

A woman with no face then appears in front of him

Mysterious Woman: LOOK! 

Mysterious Woman: LOOK AT WHAT YOU DONE

Connor pants in fear like he's out of breath 

Connor: WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

He yells in anger and fear 

Mysterious Woman: CANT YOU SEE

Mysterious Woman: THEY'RE ALL DEAD AND ITS YOUR FAULT

Connor jumps up out his sleep, breathing heavy as bird chirp

He's at Margaret house and it's early morning he looks at the alarm and it's say 6:00 AM

Connor's now fully clothed wearing a hoodie is now running in the woods with wired headphones in

He sees a yellow sign with a kangaroo on it

He's Jogging on a road surrounded by trees as his phone starts to ring 

Cars past him by as he stops out of breathe

He takes out his phone out and answers it

Dylan is at the busy police station 

Dylan: Rise and shine superwolf 

Connor rolls his eyes

Connor: Lapis told you huh 

Dylan: Can you hold on for a second

He removes the phone from his ear 

Dylan then shifts his attention to the police station front desk 

Dylan: We're here to see Sheriff Hall

He then gives a slight smile

The officer looks with a hint of fear

Officer: Go ahead

Dylan: Thank you

He says smiling

He puts the phone on his ear again

Dylan: Sorry about that- how's everything going in Australia? You know besides you nearly killing everybody 

Connor: Good- we are looking for the remaining of the pod today to see if they know anything about this…. Siren women- we just want answers…. How's things in Craydon?

Dylan: Not great- Lycaon and Michael are starting war between each other and we're in the crossfire but don't worry I have it under control-

Dylan walks into Sheriff Hall office where Ella is sitting talking to him

Dylan: Sherriff-

He's sees Ella sitting

Dylan: Hello Ms. Bell

Connor: My mom? What she doing there she should still be resting

Ella: Hey Dylan…. What are you doing here?

Connor: Tell my mom I said hi 

Dylan removes the phone from his ear

Dylan: Connor says Hi

Ella eyes widen

Ella: Let me talk to him!

He hands her the phone

Ella: Connor?

Connor: Hey mom-

Ella: Hey champ how are you? I've been worried sick you haven't called since you landed-

Connor: Good- I'm sorry I haven't called it's been a wild here since we landed

Ella: It's fine just call me alright?

Connor: Will do mom-

Ella: I love you kiddo

She says softly 

Connor: Love you too mom-

Ella: Bye….

She hands Dylan the phone

Dylan: Talk soon alright?

Connor: Yeah, yeah- call me if anything happens

Sheriff Hall: OH! And tell Connor he's a state champion 

Connor: WHAT-

Dylan hangs up

Connor looks up as he puts his phone up and sees a woman in a black hood disappears

He thinks nothing of it

A little while later

Connor makes it back to the house and as he enters he sees Lapis, Caleb & Aunt Margaret standing having coffee talking

Aunt Margaret: There you are!

Aunt Margaret: G'day Mate! Want some?

Lapis: Where'd you go?

Connor: Went out for a run-

Aunt Margaret: Want some coffee?

Connor nods his head in approval as he takes a mug

Connor: I talked to Dylan and the others

Lapis: He explained what's going on there?

Connor: Something about a war between Lycaon and Michael

Caleb: Lycaon was captured by Dylan and Michael didn't come help him escape

Lapis: So he now wants his revenge

Connor stops himself

Connor: I think we should go back… it's a lot going on there and they might need our help

Aunt Margaret: That's wouldn't be the best idea- with how bad your condition is the only way to help them is for you to get cured as fast as possible 

Lapis: Yeah- we're gonna get you some help first…. Dylan and the others can handle themselves 

Connor: Alright

He starts to walk off

Connor: Oh and Sheriff Hall mentioned that we won state

Caleb eyes widen and he jumps up and down out of excitement 

Caleb: WHAT!

In Craydon Falls

Dylan, Jessica, Dominic, Tiffany, and AJ all meet at the high school football/track field

Dominic: So is this our thing now? Just meeting up anywhere to discuss our Supernatural plans?

AJ: What he said and where's the two annoying blonde and brunette?

Dominic: Most brunette are annoying you will have to be a little more specific 

Jessica and Tiffany both look at them

Dominic: Besides you too ofcourse-

He chuckles out of fear

Dylan: Can we talk about more important things please?

Jessica smiles

Jessica: He's said PLEASE?

Dominic laughs

Dominic: I didn't even know that was in his vocabulary-

Dylan face turns serious

Dylan: You wanna know what else is in my vocabulary 

Dominic smiles disappears almost instantly 

Dominic: What were you saying about this plan again?

Dylan: Me, Jessica and Tiffany need to track down Lycaon and stop him before he decides to attack 

Dominic: He kinda already did that….

Dominic says under his breathe

Dylan sighs out of annoyance 

Dylan: Before he attacks again…..

Dylan: So that leaves you too 

He looks at AJ and Dominic

Dylan: I need you two to find out what Michael has planned and fast

AJ: I can do that by myself I don't need his help-

Dominic: For someone I really don't like you think a lot like me

Dylan: Not with ur lack of experience when it comes to handling this

AJ: You don't know what experience I have-

Dylan: Experience or not it doesn't matter

Dylan: And even though he is really really annoying to deal with- he actually know what to do 

Dominic smiles

Dominic: Is that a compliment?

Dylan: Don't get too excited 

AJ: Fine but if I kill him then it's on you

Dylan: Let us know if you both find anything

AJ nods and him and Dominic walks off

Back in Australia…

Connor, Lapis and Caleb stands at the front door 

Aunt Margaret: Call me if anything goes wrong

Lapis: If we ain't back before sunset come find us

Aunt Margaret: PLEASE BE SAFE!

They leave

They arrive at a small town 

It's kind of busy and people chatter as cars pass by

Connor, Lapis & Caleb walk through the town as they tend to bump into people

Connor: So where are we again?

Lapis: This is the town I basically grew up in

Caleb: You told me about this place

Lapis: We're heading to a bar-

Lapis: That's where we might find answers 

They head into a bar called "Pam's"

As they enter the bar everyone inside turn their heads and the attention is shifted to Lapis and them

They approach an African Australian woman in her mid to late 40s but she looks 20

She had brown curly hair 

Woman: You three mates look no older than 16

Caleb: And you look no older than 20

He mumbles as Lapis punches his side

Woman: You got ID?

Lapis chuckles

Lapis: You don't remember me?

The woman analyzes her

She then gasp and smiles

Woman: LAPIS?

Lapis: Hi Aunt Pam-

Connor & Caleb both look in shock 

Connor & Caleb: AUNT?

Woman: COME HERE!!

They walk around the counter and hug and rock back and forth

Pam smiles before releasing Lapis

Pam: What are you doing here!

Lapis: I'm visiting for a while- I came with them two 

Pam: I'm so sorry I didn't even recognize my own niece 

Lapis: It's fine- This is Connor- he's sort of a friend

Lapis: And this is my boyfriend Caleb- 

Lapis: Guys this is my Aunt Pam- She grew up with my mom and aunt Margaret 

Lapis: We came to ask a few questions if you don't mind….

Pam: Ofcourse not- can I get you three anything?

Lapis: No we're fine

Pam: Follow me

They all head towards the back of the bar

Pam: So what can I do for you?

Lapis: So we have a problem….

Lapis: You might wanna take a seat

Lapis: Connor here-

Connor smiles

Connor: Hi-

Lapis: He's a werewolf 

Pam: A werewolf?

Lapis: Yeah- I know everything on how my mom and you and aunt Margaret were mermaids

Lapis: I mean my abilities came a few years ago after a full moon 

Pam: We wanted to tell you earlier but- you were so young when she died…

Caleb: Who?- her mom?

Pam nods her head in yes

Pam: She died when little Lapis was 7-

Lapis: We don't have to talk about that-

Lapis: Connor has a cursed placed on him by a covet of witches that got the spell originally from a Siren

Lapis: Show her…

Connor turns around and lifts his shirt up and the dark spots and black and purple lines run across his back like a plague spreading

Pam covers her mouth in awe

Pam: Oh Wow!

Connor: I'm right here you know-

Pam: Sorry…

Connor drops his shirt and fixes it back

Lapis: I know you aren't apart of the pod anymore either but- could you point us in the right direction of where to go to find this siren

Pam: Wait a curse and a siren…

Pam: She wouldn't do it would she?

Caleb: Do what?

Pam: She couldn't do it….

Lapis: Do what Aunt Pam-

Pam: Are you familiar with the tale of Dalgaris and a prophecy?

Connor: Yeah we heard a thing or two about it that includes me dying

Pam: Well good then you know in order to bring Dalgaris back she needs the power too

Lapis: But doesn't she have that power?

Pam: No…

Pam: But he does

She says looking at Connor

Back In Craydon Falls

It's dark outside as AJ & Dominic sit outside a warehouse in AJ Black SRT8 Gen 2 Dodge Charger

Dominic: We followed Michael here over an hour ago and nothing has happened yet

Dominic: Doesn't he own this warehouse?

Dominic: Maybe he's checking on his employees 

AJ: It's 8 at night- what employees 

Dominic: Did you ever think he runs a 24 hour warehouse?

AJ: What warehouse in Craydon Falls are 24 hours?

Dominic: Good point-

As they sit two armed men with black AR rifles come out the warehouse

AJ: What warehouse have fully armed men walking around it also

Dominic: Imma call Dylan and the others

AJ: No…. For what?

Dominic: To talk about our day

He says sarcastically 

Dominic: Obviously to tell them about the armed men walking around here

Multiple shots are let off and shouting begin as AJ jumps out the car

Back In Australia

Connor, Lapis, & Caleb are still standing in the back of the bar with Pam

Connor: What do you mean I have the power?

Pam: The curse prophecy isn't you just flat out dying when you reach stage 5

Pam: No- it's much worse than that

Pam: She wants to resurrect him 

Lapis: And She's gonna use you as a power source 

Caleb: And that's what gonna kill you-

Connor: Wait- so when the prophecy said I was gonna be the destroyer of all supernatural-

Lapis: They didn't mean you as in you- 

Pam: She want to use Dalgaris The Supernatural Hunter-

Pam: The perfect killing machine

Lapis: To kill us all….

Lapis: THANK YOU SO MUCH AUNTIE PAM

She says as she hugs her in a hurry 

Connor: Where are we going?

Lapis: Just come on!

They chase after Lapis

Back In Craydon Falls

AJ creeps up to the warehouse as Dominic follows him

Dominic(Whispers): This isn't a good idea at all

AJ: I don't remember asking

Dominic(Whispers): Doesn't make it any better 

Two men with assault rifles notice them

Man 1: HEY!

AJ moves so fast it's almost a blur and takes the weapons from both men and snaps their necks 

They're bodies hit the ground

Dominic: You killed them!

AJ: Was I not supposed to do that?

Dominic: NO

He says out loud

Dominic: You suppose to knock them out

AJ: So they can wake up and shoot someone else?

Dominic just looks at him and walks past him

Dominic: We need to find Michael

AJ: I hear more this way-

He says as he sprints down the hall of the warehouse

Back In Australia…

Lapis and the others arrives at someones house

It's a modern Australian home

She rings the doorbell as they just stand there

Connor: Now where are we?

Lapis: An house of an old friend

Nobody answers it 

She rings it again

Caleb: We should just come back it's don't look like nobody's home

Lapis: We need to get inside

She goes under the mat and sees nothing but sees a window open

She then walk over towards the window

Lapis: Come on

She says as she starts to climb through the window 

Caleb: Great so now we're breaking and entering 

They enter the house and it's abandoned and it's still fully furnitured but covered with white cloth 

 

Caleb: Well that's why nobody answered the door

Connor: Lapis…. Where are we?

Lapis searches through a closet with boxes and dust

Caleb: and why are you going through these people stuff

Lapis: Where is it-

She continues to search then jump up outta anger

Connor: Can you please answer anything we just asked you!

Connor shouts

Caleb: Oh….

Caleb is holding a portrait that was sitting on the table

Lapis stops and looks at him

Connor: What?

Caleb: This is your old house…

He lift the picture and it's has Lapis Mom, Dad and a baby Lapis all smiling

Lapis: Fine- Yes I used to live here

Lapis takes a seat on a chair

Lapis: We lived here…. Well…. until my mom died-

Lapis: My dad couldn't handle it so he took off with just me and we came to America and never came back

Lapis: I found out I was a mermaid two years before we moved to Craydon Falls

Lapis: I ran into an Australian man who was willing to teach me how to use my powers and use them to help and protect 

Connor: Which was William-

Lapis: I came here because my mom kept something called a Supernatural Calendar 

Caleb: Why would you need that?

Lapis starts to look around again

Lapis: Because when aunt Pam mentioned Connor becoming they key to bringing back Dalgaris 

Lapis: It made me think about something-

Connor: What

Lapis: Siren and Mermaids both get their powers from the moon

Caleb: Ok?

Lapis: But a regular full moon couldn't generate enough power for her to do anything

Lapis then finds a binder type of calendar

Lapis: YES!

She opens it and flip through it

She stops

Lapis: Guys….

Connor: What is it Lapis?

Lapis: It's not just a full moon in three days….

Lapis: It's a Supermoon….

Back In Craydon Falls

AJ and Dominic arrives at a door and stops and look at each other

AJ: I count 5 heartbeats

Dominic: Can you sense Michael's heartbeat?

AJ: How would I sense his heartbeat…

Dominic: I don't know how this stuff works

AJ: Clearly….

AJ nods as he bust down the door and 5 men lay on the ground unconscious bleeding and scratched up

Dominic: OH-

AJ: Lycaon been here

They both look up to a message on a white board

"3 Days…."

Dominic: What's in three days?

AJ sits with a sort of shock look on his face

AJ: You should call your friends….
