Chapter 54 Rescue Part 2

• The councilman, Gamma True, the twins and Talia all follow me to the helicopter. I will be flying us there. There is actually no room for a pilot anyway. Everyone else is already in place. The rest of the council will meet us there, but they are only going to be part of the clean up crew.
• The flight takes only about 25 minutes. We lnd and load up in SUVs. The mood is very tense. Onyx is bouncing around in my head. He can feel Seleste now. We are definitely close to her. I ask Talia to try to link Seleste. They are able to establish a link. The rebels are in the process of interrogating Seleste. She agreed to leave the link open with Talia so we can keep up with what is happening with her. Onyx can feel a little of her anxiety. Talia told us they just threatened her with wolfsbane and torture if she does not tell them where the protector baby is and who is in charge of the child. Seleste is telling them that she has no knowledge of a baby protector being born recently, which is true. Seleste is telling them that she is a gamma of her pack and the descendent of an original, she is much too young to worry about babies. She reminded them that her dad is going to kill all of them when he finds her. That is also true.
• Talia says that Seleste is now trying to negotiate her freedom. She told them that her parents are very wealthy and her pack will pay a ransom to get her back. She told them that it would be better for them to get a ransom, take the money and run. That is the only way they will live. They are laughing at her. They think that there is no way anyone can find her and they think she is just a weak little she-wolf. They are wrong on both parts. We tell Talia to let her know that we are only about 5 minutes away. We’ve parked the vehicles and are coming in on foot. I have told the team that is there to surround the building. The bears have already blocked all means of contact. We had Talia warn Seleste before we went silent. Which is a good thing because they had started to threaten Seleste and I think me and her dad would completely lose it if we heard the threats being made.
