Chapter 51 - Sacrifice

Reid sneered at Denzel, his eyes blazing with hatred. "Well, well, well. Look what we have here. The great Denzel, brought low by just twelve of my pack members."Denzel's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in anger. "Reid, you're a fool for trying this again."Reid laughed, a cold, mirthless sound. "Oh, I'm not trying anything, Denzel. I'm succeeding. You see, I've been planning this for a long time, ever since you threw me out of the park like the trash I am."Denzel's eyes flashed with anger, but Reid continued, his voice dripping with venom. "You think you're so much better than me, don't you, Denzel? With your precious girlfriend, your little Banshee seer, who thinks she's so much better than everyone else just because she can foresee things."Reid's eyes seemed to bore into Denzel's soul. "But she's not here now, is she? She's not here to protect you from me. And even if she was, it wouldn't matter. Because I have the upper hand now."Denzel's fists clenched his body tense with rage. "You'll never win, Reid. I'll always be one step ahead of you."Reid laughed again, the sound sending shivers down Denzel's spine. "We'll see about that, Denzel. You see, I've been gathering allies, building my strength. And now, I'm ready to take what's mine."Reid's eyes seemed to gleam with triumph. "You're a relic of the past, Denzel. A weak, pathetic leader who can't even control his pack. And now, it's time for you to pay the price."Denzel's face twisted in anger, his body trembling with rage. But Reid just continued to taunt him, his words cutting deep into Denzel's soul."You're nothing but a joke, Denzel. A joke who's about to be punched out."Reid's words dripped with malice as he continued to mock Denzel. "You think you're so strong, but you're nothing but a shadow of your former self. Your pack is divided, your leadership is questioned, and your girlfriend is nowhere to be found."Denzel's eyes flashed with anger, but Reid just laughed. "Oh, I know all about your little secrets, Denzel. I know about your doubts and your fears. And I'm going to use them against you."Reid took a step closer to Denzel, his voice dropping to a menacing whisper. "You're no match for me, Denzel. I'm the future, and you're just a relic of the past. And soon, I'll be the one leading this pack, not you."Denzel's body trembled with rage, his fists clenched at his sides. He knew he had to keep his cool, but Reed's words were getting under his skin. He could feel his anger boiling over, threatening to spill out at any moment.You are beneath me; you're just like a roach under my boots, Reid said, kicking Denzel to the ground.Reid's claws swiped at Denzel with precision, each blow landing with brutal force. Denzel eyes widen with shock. Reid's attacks rained down on him, his teeth snapping mere inches from Denzel's face. Denzel's attempts to defend himself were feeble, his movements slow and clumsy. Reid's dominance was clear, his strength and speed overwhelming. Reid's claws dug deep into Denzel's flesh, his triumphant snarl echoing through the air. Denzel lay helpless, his body battered and bruised, his defeat imminent.At the alpha's mansionAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Nira screamed, her voice echoing through the mansion as she saw the vision of Denzel dying in her mind's eye. Cordelia rushed to her side, trying to console her."Nira, what's wrong?" Cordelia asked, but Nira just shook her head, her eyes wild with fear."Denzel," she whispered, her voice trembling. "He's going to die."Cordelia's face went pale, but she tried to stay calm. "We'll do something, Nira. We'll find a way to stop it."But Nira just shook her head, her eyes fixed on some point in the distance. "I've seen it," she whispered. "I've seen his death. It's inevitable."Cordelia tried to grab Nira's hands, but she pulled away, her eyes flashing with desperation. "I have to try," she said, her voice rising. "I have to try and save him."And with that, Nira began to chant, her voice rising and falling in a hypnotic rhythm. She spoke words of ancient power, calling on the spirits to aid her. But as she spoke, her voice faltered. She felt the weight of fate bearing down on her, crushing her."It's not working," she whispered, her eyes wide with horror. "I can feel it. He's meant to die."Cordilia's face was pale, her eyes filled with tears. "Nira, don't say that," she whispered. "We can find another way."But Nira just shook her head, her eyes fixed on some point in the distance. "I have to try," she whispered. "I have to try and save him."As she spoke, Nira's body began to glow with a soft, white light. The light grew brighter and brighter until it was like a small sun in the room."Scambio di vita, scambio di morte," she chanted, her voice ringing out through the mansion. ("Exchange of life, exchange of death.")As she spoke, Nira felt her life force begin to ebb away, flowing out of her and into Denzel. She felt her heart slow, her breathing falter. And then, everything went black.Cordelia screamed, rushing to Nira's side. "Nira, no!" she cried, but it was too late. Nira's body went limp, her eyes frozen in a permanent stare. She had given her life to save Denzel, and now she was gone. ***************************************Bluefur Pack, this is a memorable day where we defeat the almighty alpha of the Blackmoon pack, Reid said with confidence.Howling could be heard in the forest celebrating the defeat of Denzel. Then Reid commanded his pack members to tear Denzel into piecesAs they were surrounding him, he felt a surge of power rising within him. Denzel, fueled by Nira's sacrifice, launched a fierce counterattack. With renewed strength, he battled the werewolves, freeing Ronald and Jason. Together, they fought in perfect sync, their movements a blur of fur and claws. The werewolves were quickly overwhelmed, but some escaped into the bush. Reid vanished into the darkness, his eyes glowing with hatred. Denzel had defeated them; they were happy that they had killed a significant number of the Bluefur's members. But will they still be happy after finding out the reason behind their victory?
