Ann couldn’t seem to tear her eyes away from it, staring at the being on the cold,

metal slab in front of her and almost forgetting to breathe.

Greyson and Bartholomew stood at her side with a grim expression that was almost

identical, and the Elders a*s*sembled at the edges of the room watched curiously as

Lexi circled the creature slowly with a deep scowl creasing her forehead.

“This shouldn’t be here.” She muttered as she bent forward and peered closely at the

creature’s twisted face, its features contorted in a menacing snarl that had persisted

even in death.

Ann understood the confusion as to why the beast didn’t emit any odor, as the skin

seemed to be paper thin and had broken apart in places, revealing the ma*s*s of flesh

underneath.

Lexi lifted her head and suddenly fixed Greyson with a hard stare.

“You’re saying there was no stench, or scent whatsoever when the creatures were

attacking?” she asked, the thinly shrouded disbelief in her words hanging in the air

accusingly.

Greyson met her challenging stare and frowned a little as he spoke.

“I wasn’t there. There was a faint smell of… I suppose decay at the site of the

battlefield, but there’s no one left alive to ask. All I know is we didn’t scent anything

when we arrived anywhere near close to what you’re apparently experiencing.” He

answered grimly.

Lexi nodded thoughtfully as she circled around again.

“I would hazard a guess to say that there wasn’t any prior indication of their presence

before the ambush though. It would at least account for the ease with which they were

set upon. Their training and superior abilities should have negated any risk of

ambush.” He continued.

“But That would make no sense. The very nature of these beasts…you should be able

to smell them… I don’t understand why you can’t…” Lexi replied, frustration tingeing

her tone as she sighed loudly.

“Do you know what they are then?” Bartholomew asked, the faint light of hope

blossoming in his eyes.

Lexi nodded curtly.
