MIKEY’S GREAT ESCAPE
"Or I could do pizza....maybe burgers or wait Curry! I really fancy curry a super spicy curry!!!" Mikey squealed excitedly as he and the two large warriors who were flanking him headed back to the barn.
"If we get you a dam curry will you shut up for at least half an hour!" The largest warrior losing his patience screamed in frustration.
"Shouting is not very nice it makes me very scared," as fake tears rolled down his face and he looked up at them both as innocently as possible. "And if I get too scared I might die after all I do have a weak heart..." Mikey said building up the ruse of being a weak frightened pup.
The large warriors looked at each other in panic before the largest one awkwardly patted Mikey on the back in an attempt of a comforting gesture." It's okay little pup.... everything will erm be okay...?" The second said uncertain and he began to stroke his hair also trying to comfort him.
Mikey downcast his eyes and took a deep breath trying his best to control his laughter over the two idiots trying to show maternal instincts neither of them possessed.
Mikey took control and led them to the barn, " It's okay I know you don't really mean to frighten me or want to kill me by frightening me to death so I will forgive you." The two idiots looked relieved.
"But so I don't get too scared you will need to stick to the bedtime routine my mummy has for me after at I have been kidnapped by a pack of ruthless killers that in itself could frighten me to death so you should really keep me as calm and as happy as possible..." he trailed off looking at them innocently.
"Sure kid, whatever you say." The largest one said gratefully that the kid was giving them advice on how to keep him from dying of fright thus stopping them dying at the hand of the Rogue Alpha.
"Great so we will get to the barn, you.... I am sorry what was your name" Mike said asking the largest warrior.
"Joe." He replied instantly
"And you...? " Mike asked pointing at the second
"Sam." He replied promptly smiling in an attempt of a friendly smile hoping it would reassure the pup and stop his weak heart from giving out.
" Okay, Joe and Sam as I was saying when we get to the barn you Joe go get the local restaurants to take out menus so you can get our dinner sorted and you Sam get a note pad and pen after dinner has been ordered I will tell you my bedtime routine and you can write it down so you get it right okay? It's very important I don't get to be scared and following my routine will help plus I need to have a good sleep to ensure I rest when you have a bad heart like mine rest is very important." Mikey said in an authoritative tone.
"Of course kid, whatever you say," Joe replied trying to not stress Mikey out and Sam nodded in agreement with his ridiculous attempt of a friendly smile still plastered on his face.
Mikey nodded approvingly at them making them sigh in relief that they have appeased him and he dragged them towards the barn pleased he had accomplished the tactic his uncle had taught him so quickly- when captured by the enemy build a personal relationship with them to humanise yourself so they cared more about your welfare, learning their names had certainly done that.
Once dinner was finally chosen Mikey looked at the watch it was 7.30 pm he had two hours until his escape he better think of one very long bedtime routine. " Okay, Sam do you have the notepad and pen ready"
"Yes..." he said trying to sound chirpy despite his growing frustration.
"Great so let's begin, after dinner say about 8 pm I have to watch an hour of my favourite cartoon to help me relax so you Dexter..." He said pointing at one of the warriors who was gathered around listening intensively " go get the laptop from the house and set up my cartoon it's called Scooby-Doo ok"
"Yes, Mikey." He nodded obediently like the rest of them willing to do his bidding so the weak pup's heart didn't give out.
"After my cartoon, I will need a bedtime story you can do that Joe and I will need to sleep in a bed with a firm mattress so Mark and James you will have to go get the bed from the room upstairs and bring it here, I can't sleep on the floor my heart...." James and Mark looked panicked before replying " That's no trouble at all." Mikey smiled at their reply. "And Jude you will need to go into town after my cartoon and get me a few things I will write you a list."
"Why can't we do these things now or after dinner when you're watching your cartoon? " He asked gruffly.
"You could I suppose... but I usually watch my cartoon with my siblings I have 10 you know and it makes me feel safe so I can sleep without having nightmares. I hoped watching it with all of you would do the same but I guess we could do it your way and hope I don't have a nightmare... then stops my heart..."
"NO! your way is good," Jude replied.
"And finally you Sam will go and make me a hot cocoa with marshmallows and all the works I will write you precise instructions so you make it just like mummy. Whilst your all doing that Joe will read me my bedtime story so when you all get back I can go to sleep peacefully... okay" The warriors grumbled their agreement not happy about running around after a bossy pup but willing to do it to stop his fragile heart from giving out and them having to face the Rogue Alpha's wrath.
"Excellent!" Mikey smiled pleased he managed to trick the stupid werewolf's into splitting up and leaving him with only one guard his escape should be easy now. Dinner arrived and they all ate keen to go get their errands over and done with.
As the clueless warriors departed after being forced to watch his cartoon Mike wrapped up in a blanket and sat innocently cross-legged on the floor in front of a nervous-looking Joe who was out extremely out of his comfort zone.
"You start a story with once upon a time..." Mikey prompted.
"Oh erm right.... once upon a time right there was a wolf pup.... called Mikey? " Joe said questionably and Mikey nodded for him to continue.
"He... liked Scooby-Doo" Mike nodded before he suddenly clutched his chest and dramatically wailed making Joe jump to his feet.
"Kid! Kid!!! Are you okay"
"Oh, I am sorry I didn't mean to scared you Joe it's just I felt really dizzy I think I may be dehydrated can you please get my juice it's over on the table... please." He asked batting his eyelashes and looking at him innocently. Joe turned his back and walked towards the table and searched frantically for Mikey's juice. He was so focused on trying to find Mikey's juice he didn't see Mikey's shadow creeping towards him with a shovel in his hands he with stealth learnt in warrior training had picked up silently.
"Hey Kid, are you sure it's here I can't find it" Joe replied before Mikey whacked him as hard as he could on the head with the shovel making him fall with a thud to the floor.
Mikey grinned at his success and reached into Joe's pockets searching for anything that could aid his escape finding Joe's mobile phone he put it in his pocket before he stealthy sneaked out the barn and crept passed the rest of the pack just the way a warrior should with deadly silence just like his uncle taught him and once he was pasted them he broke into a run and ran as fast as he could towards the human village at the bottom of the steep hill.
When Mikey reached the bottom he followed Isabelle's plan and thought of a way to get out of the town and as far away from the pack as possible. Scanning his surroundings he saw a delivery truck with its doors open and he quickly jumped in the back hiding amongst the cargo.
After a few minutes, the truck's engine roared to life and the truck started to move Mikey thought very hard trying to remember the right number and when he had it memorised he took the phone out his pocket and made a call.
The line rang and rang and just when Mikey was about to give up hope the phone was picked up on the other end and a familiar voice answered.
" Dad! It's me, Mikey" Mikey was bombarded with questions between his dad's sobs of joy and he finally managed to tell his dad the whole story of their kidnap between his own sobs. Once hearing the tale Carl told him they were tracing the phone he was calling on and he would send warriors out to retrieve him and he loved him but would need to go and tell Jake what happened and give Jake Mikeys co-ordinates immediately so they can go try rescue Isabelle. As Carl went to update Jake he passed the phone to Ariana who bombarded him with more questions as she too cried hysterically. Mikey breathed a sigh of relieve proud he had successfully escaped and had managed to send help to his Auntie as Mikey sat listening to his mother's soothing voice and the truck sped away further Joe back at the safe house began to stir and immediately mind-linked his Alpha the news.
The Rogue Alpha was sitting having dinner with his mate admiring the creaminess of her pale skin against the sexy black silk nightie she wore when Joe mind-linked him the news.
The cunning Bitch was trying to bide her time was she well we will see the thought as he mind-linked Damien getting him to organise a search for the pup and then telling him to come to the room immediately and then he looked at his little mate who was still acting submissively biding her time.
Well, you're not the only one who can be sneaky he thought as she began to put his plan into action.
" Wow, I must say I am impressed at how well you are behaving love. It's a good sign that our future will be a harmonious one, shall we have a drink to celebrate"
Isabelle glanced at his watch she needed 10 more minutes at least " Sure Alpha sounds great."
The Rogue Alpha went to the drinks cabinet and turning his back he poured Isabelle a glass of champagne adding a heavy dose of crushed sleeping pills like he did in the car on the journey here. " To us... my love." He sat back and admired the deceitful bitch.
" What do you think my love of the champagne?" He smirked
" It's lovely very refreshing but it does have an odd after taste."
"That would be the secret ingredient in it my love but I am glad you like it." He laughed.
They sat in silence for another 10 minutes the Rogue Alpha pretended not to notice the knife in her hand and when Damien came in and he told her they knew of the pups escape he took great satisfaction in tormenting her before she fell unconscious on the hard floor with a thud.
That will leave a few bruises he thought as he smiled darkly but bruises will be nothing compared to the other pain she will feel he thought as he mind-linked the pack to pack up immediately so they can move out and tried to remember where he left the heavy silver chains he packed just in case.
