I don't own
- Pogue Parry, Caleb Danvers, Reid Garwin, Tyler Sims, Aaron Abbot,
Bordy, Kira, Chase Collins or any other characters from the movie.
(the writers & creator's of 'The Covenant' do). I, however, own
Ella Sims. 'This is Living' is taken from the movie Undiscovered and
is sung by Steven Strait.
A/N #1: This is my take on what could have happened if there was a girl thrown into the mix, when Chase is first brought in. Story starts the same as the movie...sort of.
A/N #2: You may notice that I have a few stories in the works. That's because I'm constantly writing. When it comes to updating it could be anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of weeks or even months.

Chapter 01: This Is Living.
2002
A 14-year-old Tyler Sims stood in the door way to his older sister's bedroom, she was only 10 months older and his best-friend. He didn't want her to go away to a boarding school in another state. Ella Sims, is Tyler's older sister, like her brother she didn't want to go away. It would mean 4 years of not seeing the younger boy.
Reid Garwin, Caleb Danvers and Pogue Parry all considered her their sister as well so none of the boys particularly wanted the teen girl to leave them. As like them, she had also gotten a taste of the power when she was 13.
It is said that in every generation only the oldest son attains the power. The Sims, had an exception, obviously and it was their daughter Ella. It wasn't until 3 years later when the boys were re-reading the Book of Damnation that they realised that with the Sims it was a different story, every fourth generation there was two that were given the power.
2006
Caleb, Tyler and Pogue stood at the top of the cliff overlooking the Dells, down below them the major party of the year was going on. They were waiting for Reid to turn up. Ella smirked at Reid who grinned at her before he walked towards the three boys with Ella following close behind him.
"Sup fellas?" Reid questioned mischievously as he walked between the boys and looked over the cliff.
"Where were you? I stopped by to give you a lift," Tyler said looking at the older boy and then over the cliff again.
"Had things to do. How's the party?" Reid questioned as Ella suddenly wrapped her arms around Tyler giving him a hug.
"Don't know, just got here," Pogue answered turning and seeing Ella's grinning face peering at the boys from Tyler's shoulder.
"Ella!" Tyler grinned turning around and giving her a hug.
"Well, hell, boys," Reid smirked letting his eyes go black before continuing. "Let's drop in," with that he jumped over the cliff and Ella let go of Tyler.
"Shit yeah!" Tyler exclaimed, turning around as his eyes went black and he stepped backwards free falling.
"Tyler!" Caleb exclaimed, Ella just laughed after all her baby brother was just following Reid's example.
"It's not like it's going to kill us, yet" Pogue grinned before jumping off the cliff and joining Tyler and Reid at the bottom.
"Caleb, I hate this part you know," Ella said looking to the younger boy, who smiled and held his hand out to her.
"Yeah, fine. We'll do it together," Caleb told her before the pair of them allowed the eyes to go black and they stepped off the cliff joining the others at the bottom.
Once at the bottom of the cliff, they started walking towards the party. Meanwhile, Kate Tunney, Pogue's girlfriend was talking and dancing with her new room-mate.
"So, tell me who's who?" the new girl, Sarah Wenham asked, looking around as they stopped dancing by the fire.
"Okay, first off, over there," Kate pointed taking Sarah's shoulder as she did so. "That's Aaron Abbott, he's a prick,"
"Okay," Sarah said looking at Aaron and his girlfriend. "Who's that?" she asked, noticing a boy walking around on his own.
"New kid, don't know much about him, but I intend to find out," Kate answered as she looked around and saw the five figures walking over the hill and towards them. "They're here," she grinned, turning her head to look at Sarah who was looking rather confused at her.
"Who's they?" Sarah questioned, before looking in the direction that Kate was looking.
"The Sons of Ipswich,"
Caleb was the first to get to them, while Reid, Tyler, Pogue and Ella trailed slightly behind them. Ella was taking deep breaths as she kept a step behind the boys. Kate looked at her and grinned, remembering her from before she had gone away.
"Hey Caleb...Hi!" Kate grinned as she and Pogue embraced. "You're late," she told Pogue as Tyler talked quietly to Ella.
"Had a thing with the family," Pogue told her, before looking at Sarah questioningly. "Who's this?"
"This is my new room mate Sarah," Kate smiled, before motioning to Pogue. "Sarah, this is my boyfriend Pogue Parry," Pogue simply nodded in acknowledgment kissing Kate's forehead. "Tyler Sims," Kate motioned to Tyler who lifted his hand before continuing to quietly talk to his sister.
"Garwin, Reid Garwin," Reid interrupted grinning at Sarah as he leant on Caleb's shoulder. "You know, Sarah's my grandmothers name...you kind of remind me of her,"
"Caleb, Caleb Danvers," Caleb grinned, before shaking her hand and continuing. "And you don't bring my grandmother to mind in any way," Sarah smiled at him before they were rudely interrupted by Kira.
"Sarah," she nodded.
"Hi Caleb," the red head smiled looking directly at him as she stood between him and Sarah.
"Kira," he acknowledged looking around her and at Sarah as Ella rolled her eyes.
"How was you summer?" Kira asked, before she turned around abruptly and looked at Sarah. "Hi, I'm Kira,"
"Sarah," Sarah answered, looking at her while it was Caleb's turn to rolls his eyes.
"Right, from the Boston Public," Kira said, still looking at her as Aaron Abbot made his way down to them. "Tell, me how does one go about getting into Spencer from the public?"
"Why don't you give it a rest Kira?" Caleb questioned trying to get the red head's attention before Aaron stepped between them.
Tyler looked at Caleb and then at Pogue. Reid stayed were he was briefly glancing back at Ella with a slight smirk on his face which disappeared quickly.
"Why don't you give it a rest Caleb," Aaron said still standing between the Caleb and the girls.
"Don't want any trouble Aaron," Caleb told him as he glanced at Reid and then went back to looking at the boy before him.
"I'm sure you don't," Aaron retorted smirking at the taller boy.
"You posers make me want to puke,"
"Is that right?" Reid questioned as continued to lean on Caleb's shoulder a gloved hand resting on his chin.
"I think you owe Kira an apology," Aaron told Caleb, who shook his head.
"Actually, I think it's Kira that owes Sarah the apology," Caleb said as he pointed to Kira and then to Sarah who smiled at him. Before Aaron roughly shoved him causing both Reid and him to stumble backwards a little before the guy who Sarah and Kate had seen earlier turned up and made a comment about Kira being bitchy.
Reid's eyes suddenly flashed with fire from the centre outwards before Buster, the guy who had made the comment about wanting to puke, then puked all over the back of Aaron's jacket. All of a sudden the music stopped and they were told that the cops where on old Dell road headed their way. Pogue took Kate's hand while Sarah walked with Caleb and the new boy. Tyler, Reid and Ella trailed a little behind them. Reid wrapped his arm around the older girls shoulder as they walked quickly to Tyler's hummer. It was soon found out that new boy's name was Chase.
Ella sat in between Caleb and Pogue in the back of the hummer. Reid sat in the front passenger seat while Tyler sat in the driver's seat. Ella rolled her eyes she knew exactly what was about to happen next. Reid huffed at Caleb, he was a tad jealous after a comment that Pogue had made about Sarah wanting Caleb.
"My car won't start!" Sarah called sticking her head out the window as Tyler rolled down his.
"I can fix it," Reid stated indignantly climbing out the hummer and then proceeding to walk around to Sarah's car and lift up the bonnet. He completely ignored Caleb's cry of 'Reid don't' and Pogue's sticking up for him. A few seconds later and the car had started with a little magical help. "Move over baby boy,"
"It's my car!" Tyler exclaimed after Sarah had thanked Reid and then driven off with Chase and Kate in her car.
"Ty, just do it," Ella said resting her head against Caleb's shoulder.
"Move over baby boy," Caleb told him giving him a gentle shove on the shoulder so he reluctantly moved into the passenger seat while looking in the rear view mirror at Ella and Caleb.
"Ella relax," Reid said looking into the review mirror as he started to drive. Soon enough they had a cop car on their tail.
Reid continued to drive doing what Caleb instructed by cutting across Marblehead and heading for the lighthouse. The boys allowed their eyes to go dark as night and drove over the cliff with Ella practically cling to Caleb's arm, heights were not her thing.
After it was all over they headed back to the main cliff above the Dell's so that Pogue could get his bike. Ella was glaring at Reid the entire time. She hated when they used their powers to do anything involving heights.
"Calm down, Ella," Caleb said gently taking the smaller girls hands from his shoulder so that he could look her in the eyes.
"Caleb, don't tell me to calm down!" Ella hissed, looking at him before sighing before she took notice of the piece of leather around his neck. "You still wear it," she whispered.
"Yeah, haven't stopped," he smiled at her Tyler rolled his eyes hearing the last half of their conversation.
"Come on Baby Boy, let's head to the dorms," Reid said impatiently as he looked at the younger boy and then at the others.
"El, where are you staying?" Tyler asked curiously, it was one question that he hadn't had a chance to ask her since they were at the Dell.
"Rented a small flat near the school," Ella answered, earning a rather large grin from Reid. "Reid, yes that means you can crash whenever you want,"
"Score!" Reid whooped, pumping his fist in the air.
