Guardian
Riley stared at the growing amount of paperwork sitting on her desk and groaned her brother snorted walking into the room,
"You know staring at it wont make it do it's self,"
"You fancy doing it for me then bro,"
"No thanks,"
Riley huffed she had really wanted to see her gorgeous vampire Quinn but her night seemed to be dedicated to paperwork she rolled her eyes at her brother who was now skipping out of the room. She got started on her paperwork figuring the sooner she started the sooner she'd finish.
Three hours later she was walking out of the Directorate of Other Races Melbourne office skipping along the side walk humming tunelessly to herself. She had called Quinn on her way out of the office and he was meeting her at home for a long night of body worshipping it wasn't until she stopped skipping and started walking that their was something following her. She drew in a deep breath trying to catch its scent but whatever it was, was downwind from her. She spun on her heel to face down what was about to attack her to see a big brown wolf she barely had time to compose herself when the thing leaped at her. It landed right on top of her slamming her into the cold pavement the heavy wolf clawed at her arms before she regained her grip on him and using her strength of werewolf and vampire to fling him off her body and throw him across the street. She was standing up and regaining her balance when she noticed the wolf had already gotten to its feet and was poised to attack but before it could run at her again a bullet flew through the air hitting the wolf solidly it whimpered attempting to regain it's balance but the bullets rained down on it. Riley spun around to see a female figure standing on the roof of the D.O.R building shooting the wolf she chose this moment to run ignoring the pain in her shredded arms she pushed on only stopping when she was safely within her building. She stopped to shift shape and stop the bleeding from her arms before grabbing the hand rail and jogging up to the apartment she shared with her pack mate and twin Rohan and his soul mate Lainder. She yanked the door open then slammed it shut quickly leaning against the closed door for support she attempted to catch her breath. Riley was barely aware of her brother grabbing hold of her hands and yelling at her determined to find some answers. Before she had a chance to answer him there was some one banging at the door,
"Riley open the damn door," a female voice called from the hallway. The three wolves in the apartment stared at the door,
"What do we do?" Lainder asked walking over to the twins,
"Let me in brainiac," the voice answered from the other side of the door,
"There was a girl on top the D.O.R building shooting the wolf that attacked me."
"No duh me," she commented. Rohan huffed before begrudgingly opened the door with a teenage girl with wavy, hip length silver hair and glowing silver eyes framed with black eyeliner. She was wearing a black shirt with a leather jacket thrown over it and black trousers that could have been glued to her not to mention her high heeled leather boots and gun strapped to her thigh. She grinned at him,
"Hello Rohan,"
"I don't remember telling you my name," the red head commented,
She smiled, "Can I come in?"
"Let her in Rohan," Rileys voice came from inside the apartment. He widened the door and stepped aside to let the silver haired girl in. Her eyes roamed the apartment before coming to rest on Lainder then Riley,
"How's the arm?" she grinned,
"Arms plural actually," Riley answered holding up her arms to show the girl,
"Oh dear,"
"How did you know that wolf was going to attack me?"
The girl looked solemn as she bit down on her lip like she was searching for the right words, "It's hard to explain,"
"Well try,"
"I don't really know how to say it,"
"Can you try?" Rohan asked, getting slightly aggravated with the teenager in front of him,
"I'm a guardian,"
"A guardian? Like of the Directorate of other Races?" Riley choked out,
"Sort of guardians hold a different purpose where I'm from,"
"Where are you from?" she asked,
"Lets just say I haven't actually been born yet,"
"Great. This is crazy," she groaned spinning around and stalking into her room,
"I'll talk to her," Rohan moaned following her into the room.
"You know through all this craziness no one asked what your name is," Lainder commented sitting down on the worn leather couch. She eyed the sweet natured silver haired wolf who currently had ice blue streaks in it she gave him a smile before sitting next to him on the couch,
"Abi. My name's Abi."
"What pack are you from?"
She snorted, "Not a very interesting one,"
"Why are you here in this time?"
"I have to protect Riley Jenson,"
He leaned into her, "Why?"
"Because she's important,"
"Yeah but why here and now?"
"Lets just say there's a man one that Riley thinks is dead but he isn't. He needed time to get strong again. So he came back in time to kill her,"
"Why come back now? Why not kill her in your time?"
"Because it is not just Riley he wants dead,"
"So why is it your job?"
"It just is. There are some things that I can not tell you Lainder you have to understand that,"
"Okay but Rohan and Riley won't accept that as easily,"
"I know and don't worry I know how to handle the Jenson twins,"
"You say that like you have experience,"
"Not exactly let's just say I know another set of twins like them,"
He gave her a confused look but before he could ask anymore questions Rohan and Riley came back into the room faces set like stone,
"If this is going to work we need to know exactly who you are," Rohan growled,
Abi studied her shoes for a moment, "Can't tell you that I have orders,"
"Who's?"
She met his eyes, "Yours."
Three weeks ago (Abi's time.)
She took in the sight of the witch with white blond hair that was muttering to herself,
"That's Risa she's going to send you back in time," her red headed commander informed her,
"Right and how am I going to get back Rohan?"
"Let me and Lainder deal with that Abi. You just focus on keeping Riley and the twins safe,"
"I wish I wasn't going back alone,"
A snort came from behind her, "Since when do you fear anything?" the silver haired man cackled.
She walked off to check she had memorized everything she needed to know for her mission as the couple embraced one another. Lainder had been on a mission for over four weeks and Rohan had gotten more and more irritated and frightened as each day past. Rohan embraced his lover feeling his distress,
"We need to find Ryan," Lainder whispered in his ear,
"I know that's why we're sending Abi," Rohan pulled back a little and captured his lovers lips with his own, hoping to calm him. Some one cleared their throat,
"Guys its time," Risa interrupted,
They pulled apart and looked at Abi,
"It's time,"
The girl looked at them for a moment before heading over the where Risa had been casting her spell,
"Abi you must not tell out past selves what you are there to do. They can't know about the twins,"
"They don't already know?"
"Not in this particular time,"
"I wont tell them." she gave them a reassuring nod before stepping into the time rupture.
