Rejected, Broken And Forgotten
Chapter 102

Third Person’s POV

The wolves prepare to go back to the last lab. Herman is going with them to look at the data on some of their computers and see what they have done to the poor creatures. He also wants to ensure no backups were made of their research and destroy any backups they may have, even if it is from another computer not in the lab. Herman knows how it works and most of their passwords, as he once worked with General Lowe. He knew Huge Lowe very well. Huge only trusted a few people around him, and he would not change his passwords as he thought his friends would never betray him. Herman was one of Huge’s friends until Huge went crazy and was obsessed with living forever. Huge was afraid to die. He is dead now, and no one will ever find his body. Herman is relieved that he will never see the new Huge again. Hugh, once his friend, had a family and children he cared about, but he left them in his crazy obsessive state of mind. Herman remembers talking to him, begging him not to do what he was doing as he did not want Huge to become a monster. But that is all in the past. Herman wants to destroy all the evidence that werewolves and vampires exist. They drive to the old lab as they have nothing to fear anymore. As they walk in, they see that Huge and his men have killed all the creatures they were still experimenting on, and their bodies are still in the cages.

Paris feels sad as she sees this, but they can do nothing for the creatures. They look through the lab, and all the computers are still there. Only the other equipment is gone. The equipment was not big but expensive and a lot to load, so they must have used their beasts to do it for them. They must have left in a hurry. The lights were still on, and some of the computers were also still on. The wolves walk through the lab, there is no one there, and it feels eerie. It is like walking into an abandoned building during an apocalypse. Half-eaten meals are still on the tables. Paris and Walker walk into what looks like an office. They know it is Huge office as they see photos of him all around the office. Herman is with them. He sits down at the desk and looks at the computer that is still on. He looks through the files, and he can see a lot of files on their research and that the computer is connected to a server somewhere. Herman smile. He knows how to plant a virus on the server that no one will notice until it is too late. He needs to destroy all the data on that server. Herman has already made some backups of all the files on his laptop, so he knows what they may be up against in the future. If someone has backups of their studies somewhere and plans to use them, Herman does not think anyone is stupid enough to do that, but one never knows. Herman plants the virus. It will destroy all computers linked to the server.

“I am done. We can blow up this place. I got what I wanted, and I planted the virus. It is a highly complex computer virus, and no one can stop it from spreading, King. It will destroy the server and all computers linked to the server,” Herman says to Walker, looking through the books and stuff.

“Hmm, let us stay for a bit and ensure your virus is not detected,” Walker says.

“Sure, I do not mind,” Herman says. He is looking through Huge’s emails and other files on the computer. Herman sees that they have not detected his virus yet. It will take a while before they do, and when they try to stop it, it will spread faster. It takes about two hours, and Herman knows it is too late for whoever is running the server to stop the virus. Maybe the government is no longer interested in the server as they cut all the funds for this project. Herman does not know, but he has a feeling they need to blow up the lab and get the hell out of there.

“I think we should go. If they detect the virus, they may come here to see what is happening. It is too late for them to stop it, and they might come here to retrieve the data,” Herman says. The whole place is already wired. Walker nods, and the wolves quickly run outside and get into their vehicles. They blow up the place, and the lab is gone this time. The shamans do their work by covering their tracks as they head onto the main road. They are dressed like tourists but keep their pins on in case government people are still looking for werewolves. The lab is blown to pieces. With it, all the computers with the research on them. On the main road, they make sure to drive slowly as tourists that are looking for Yosemite park. They see military helicopters flying over them, and they wave like tourists will do. They know the pilots and passengers are not worried about them as they are using civilian vehicles. The army trucks they used were destroyed and, with the help of the shamans, buried deep underground. As they drive along the road, stopping once in a while to take photos as if they are tourists, they see a convoy of army vehicles passing them in the direction they came from. They wave to the soldiers, but they look straight ahead and ignore them as if they do not see them.

“What will they think when the lab is no longer there? I hope they do not start again,” Paris says.

“They will not get funding again as their research is all missing, and they have no proof. Why do you think they came so fast to the lab? They wanted the data, but I think they wanted it more for future use than now. They can not start from scratch as the government will not fund it without proof that werewolves and vampires exist. Everything they had was on that server, even the photos. I hacked the server to ensure the virus was on it and did it from Huge computer. So we are safe even if they manage to trace the hacker. It will only show it was done from Huge’s computer,” Herman says.

“They will be pissed if they see the lab is gone,” Walker says.

“Yeah, but there is nothing they can do about it. It is gone, and all their years of research,” Paris says. She hopes they stop messing with them now.

At the lab, the helicopters have landed, and a few high-ranking officers get off them. They look around, but there are no tracks around the lab, and it seems like there has been no one around here in a while. They walk to the lab’s entrance, but the front door is blown up. They walk away to where they know the secret entrance is a few miles away, where they bring the vehicle and supplies in, but as they walk in, they can see the whole lab has been destroyed. Who did this? They realized their server had been hacked only a few hours ago, and a virus had destroyed all their data. They look at the lab, and it is evident that it has been blown to pieces, but there are no tracks of anything. Did Huge lose his last marbles? Did he destroy the lab and all their evidence about werewolves and vampires? They do not know what the hell happened here. They do not know about the secret lab in Yosemite as Huge built it in secret and never told anyone about it, but even if they knew, they would never find it as it is buried underground.

“What the hell happened here? Huge lost his head? I do not know where he is, but he took the data and went somewhere. We need to find him. We can not let our people find out about werewolves and vampires now, as they will panic, and we will have no tourists visiting our park,” One of the officers says.

“Well, it did not look like tourists heard about it yet, or if they did, they do not worry about it. We flew past a few cars with tourists, and they looked happy enough,” Another one says.

“Yeah, but I do not understand that someone hacked the server from here, according to our tech team. So that means the explosion must have happened after they hacked the server, and it can not be more than two to three hours ago. No one heard the explosion, even though it was not that far from the main road. Maybe Huge blew himself and the whole team to bits, but there is no b***d or evidence of someone being in the lab,” The first officer says. The shaman made the creatures killed in the cages disappear into the ground so no one could even find anything that showed they existed.

“It is over, and we need to accept that, no matter what happened here, we have no evidence that those creatures exist. If Huge Lowe took evidence with him, we would make it disappear before it could hit the internet, but he is obsessed with the beasts, and I do not think he wants the world to know they exist even if he is still alive. I feel he went too far and ran into trouble, and this is the doing of the King and Queen of werewolves. I know we think they are not clever, but they took out Mikhail, and I think Herman was always right. They are more intelligent than we thought, and we underestimated them. They killed Huge and Mikhail and took out all our evidence. We can not start from scratch to prove they exist, so this project is over. We close the file and move on,” The second officer says.

“Yeah, well, it is a shame we never got to live forever, but on the other hand, do you want to live forever and never see the sun again?” The two officers talk as they walk back to the helicopters. They are neither happy nor unhappy. They are relieved it is over, but they will not be able to sleep at night or let their children out of the house, knowing that monsters in this world could harm them.

The Moon Goddess looks down on the human soldiers. She does not feel sorry for them as they dug too deep into her secrets, and it will do them good to be scared for the rest of their lives for what they have done to humans and werewolves, because they were greedy and wanted to live forever. She looks down at her wolves and smiles. Walker and Pariss did a great job uniting most of the wolves. She knows some still follow the other Kings and Queens, but she also knows that the wolves will soon realize that their Kings and Queens are not warriors like Walker and Paris. They will hear from the other wolves about the story of the warrior King and Queen who saved the world and the werewolves from the evil Mikhail. She needs to go and see Jeffery. She needs to lift his curse and let him live his last life happily with his last mate. He will not have another mate again, and she wants him to be free to have pups as she has plans for this generation’s children, who will have fights of their own. But for now, she needs to look after these children of hers and give them a break. They need a little rest, and they need to build their Kingdom.
