The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

Chapter 339 Memories Bring Back Memories

[HAWI]

"You talk like we are going to die, Alpha Awuor," Sherry said and Mbali let out a light chuckle. She couldn't believe that even in all of this they could still find a way to laugh and make the situation lighter.

But this was who they were. A people who did what they had to do no matter what the situation was, and that had made their interactions warm and integrated.

It didn't matter that they were about to face the worst enemies, what mattered was they would fight until the very end. And if they lost their lives in the process, then they could only hope that their fight hadn't been in vain, right?

"Well, the next time we'll be coming to Greyson will be when we win the great war, and that is a long time in the fruit, Sherry. I am just telling what lies ahead of us. Besides, we are going to go fight just the five of us.

"It might get messy and terrifying. Anyway, if we win, I will come for the shirt you have been keeping for me since the first time I set foot into Greyson with banana leaves around my waist like the barbarian I was at the time.

"I will let you clothe me then. And feed me like you always wanted, yeah?" Hawi said and Rukiya wiped a stray tear from her eyes while Sherry stood there in shock. She had never thought that such a day would come.

Hawi had always been against anyone doing anything for her or even staying beside her in any situation. For years they had seen the girl push everyone away including the woman she was now madly in love with.

Life hadn't been all rosy for them but the fact that Hawi was actually looking forward to coming home and even making it to Greyson for Sherry's sake was heartwarming to say the least.

Perhaps there was hope after all, right?

"That is a sweet thing to say, Hawi. I will keep that in mind. Hopefully, when you come, I will still be alive," Sherry said and the room instantly went silent as they stared at the woman like she had spoken the forbidden words.

"Oh, look at your faces. You think you are the only one who can make bad jokes all the time, huh? Gotcha!" Sherry said excitedly as she watched the horror drain for the faces of the Savasci Knights.

They had never seen Malika Jabali get sentimental and yet here she was getting sentimental with someone who wasn't her sister. Maybe she had also learned a thing or two from the team of crazies that was here, right?

"This is beautiful, call for a photo," Elodie said and they looked at her like she was speaking Greek when in reality there wasn't much to decipher there. Surely they didn't think they would be keeping memories on their minds alone, right?

"What?" Mbali asked incredulously as she looked at Elodie, as if the woman needed to explain more.

"Goddamn. I know we are all used to magic, but surely we can't all be primitive enough to have high tech in the pack and still forget about the existence of phones and cameras... or you were hoping we would use a shared mind link to keep the memories safe?" Elodie asked.

"Well, that sounds better."

"If you put it like that it makes it awesome."

"Who the fuck even gave you such ideas."

"Will you all just fucking shut up and put your asses on that line over there? We don't have enough time and with how you are acting, we might never get another moment to capture this memory, alright?" Elodie said as she set up the phone on the alpha's desk.

She then walked towards the bunch of misfits that were standing sheepishly and made them pose for the photo. Thankfully, there was a timer on the phone, before the phone started capturing the moments.

Hawi counted a total of seventy-five clicks of them standing like goats who didn't know the first thing about presentation and shit. They looked primitive as fuck but maybe they could use the excuse of immortality to make it through this, right?

"Alright, everyone. The photoshoot is done and you can go back to being people from the Middle Ages where they didn't know squat about tech, yeah? I hope you have a nice life," Elodie said, intentionally causing them to be stiff as hell.

"Was that a compliment or an insult?" the misfits asked as they went back to their seats, as they waited for the day to begin.
