The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

* Happy New Month / Seasons Greetings!! Apologies in advance for the possible heartbreaks, and destruction in the near future.

[SICARIO]

Leaving Sicario, Rukiya Greyson could feel her heart constrict even more. She could feel Hawi's pain intensifying, and she knew it was just a matter of time before she had to share with their friends that she could feel Hawi's pain.

Even though Rukiya promised herself she would tell Malika at a later time, given Hawi was in this much pain, she was certain wouldn't have to wait for three days anymore. She needed to get her affairs in order, but what was there to be sorted when everything was slowing?

'What is taking them so damn long?' Mbali, who had been waiting outside the Sicario gates, thought to herself as she watched the alphas come out and leave.

She had been hoping to get a sighting of Hawi, but when she saw Rukiya and Adolf, she figured that these two would make do. Maybe there would be an easier explanation that didn't want her ruining people's lives, not that Mbali would mind it anyway.

"Where is Hawi?" Mbali asked suddenly, making Rukiya lose her balance for a moment.

"Goodness woman, do you want me to die too? Why the fuck are you even here and what the hell do you mean by where is Hawi… my goodness, you scared the shit out of me, fuck!" Rukiya shouted as she tried to control her voice.

She had been so cooped up in her thoughts of Hawi, she almost forgot that she had Adolf to help her this time; or even that she was not going to be alone in this pain.

She just needed to find Hawi, and that had distracted her a lot, to the point that she had been scared by a whimsy Lycan warrior.

"You didn't answer my question, Rukiya," Mbali said casually as she waited for Rukiya to catch her breath.

"Hey, Adolf. I see you're looking fit as a fiddle. Your Alpha must be training you really well, huh?" Mbali added, before turning to Rukya, again.

"So, where is she?"

Warrior Jabali Lihle looked different, way too different and when Rukiya finally managed to catch her breath, she wondered what the hell happened to the warrior.

It was almost like Mbali had been living under some stone and had managed to come out of it because of something important. It wasn't hard to guess why she was here, seeing as the first question Mbali asked instead of even greetings, was Hawi's whereabouts.

"Hello to you too, Jabali. How am I? Oh, don't you worry, I'm doing really great thanks for asking. My people too, and they are doing so well. How can we help you?" Rukiya asked, the sarcasm dripping in her voice making Mbali facepalm.

This wasn't the time for them to be in that situation, given the skies were starting to cloud and the weather was going to be changing erratically in a few moments.

"We both know we have other pressing issues to deal with other than greetings. Sorry, I did start with that though. Where is she?" Mbali insisted and Ruoya just sighed.

This wasn't even happening, so instead of stalling, she decided that she could just tell her what she wanted to know, seeing as there was an urgency in her voice. Perhaps that would lessen the hits of when they all realized that she had been feeling Hawi's pain.

"On a mission. She's busy with something and told us to wait for her," Rukiya said as she walked towards her army and Mbali stopped her.

She was avoiding any more questions and Mbali could see that. But then that didn't even make any sense, because Hawi wasn't the kind to just disappear in the name of missions.

Her missions were always monitored by Malika, something that they both knew hadn't happened this time, making Mbali worry even more.

"Did she tell you that herself?" Mbali asked hoping that it would be some way for her to know what was going on with Hawi, but one look at Rukiya, and Mbali knew that there was no hope for them with Hawi, at least not this time.

"No, she told Malika," Rukiya said even though she was trying to remain calm herself.

It wasn't daily that she got to such a point, but then with Hawi, there was always something new. It was like the woman was unpredictable to the point that the only thing that surprised them was how Hawi had stayed alive all through this.

She had mastered the chaos so well it seemed.

"Oh, Hawi," Mbali sighed, the realization dawning on her in the worst of ways.

She wished there was more she could do, but then she had to remind herself that Awuor Hawi wasn't just a normal wolf, and they wouldn't be able to look at all this from a normal perspective.

Maybe that would excuse whatever terrible idea they were having at the moment, right?

"Don't be too worried. She's safe. Besides, she wouldn't lie to Malika," Rukiya said and Mbali wanted to believe her. She wanted to believe that Hawi was okay, but she just couldn't.

"I'll find her myself," Mbali said as she walked towards the gates of Sicario. She was painfully aware that she was overthinking.

However, a world in which all they knew about Hawi was just that 'she was on some mission' wasn't exactly a world that they would fight for.

It was one that was on the verge of destruction, so the sooner they faced that possible reality; the sooner things would get better or worse.

Whichever way, they would have prepared for it regardless. That was all that mattered, even when there was no hope.

"Stop, Jabali. You will get her in trouble. Besides, Malika gave us three days to find Hawi, then she would intervene. Don't you ruin my three days of thinking you barbaric Lycan," Rukiya insisted, even though she knew that her threats wouldn't mean anything to Mbali.

The woman was determined to get to the bottom of this and with what she was already feeling too, it wasn't going to be good news from here on out. But what if?

"Malika… Where the fuck is Malika?" Mbali asked and Rukiya sighed before she grabbed Mbali and pulled her to the side. She wasn't sure what this was about, but clearly, the woman was distraught. There was definitely more to this than they were seeing.

"What the hell is happening, woman? Why the fuck are you so worked up? What is wrong? Is Hawi in trouble? Is that the reason you are so unsettled? Do we need to find her urgently?

"Fucking say something Mbali!" Rukiya said as she looked at the woman staring at her. She was trying to hold her pain in, but if Mbali knew something, she needed to say it as soon as possible instead of them standing at the gates like mindless robots.

"Hawi is—" Mbali began before the ground rumbled, interrupting her.

And then she knew that it was trouble.

"What the fuck was that?" Rukiya asked and Mbali looked at her worriedly.

"Please tell me you know where Malika is, Rukiya. The fate of everyone depends on her," Mbali said and the chaos began. The rumbling was not slowing down. If anything, it was like the whole of Sicario and the neighboring lands were shaking.

"Come with me, let's find her."
