Dammmmnnn you guys were like review ninjas yesterday. Haha. So like my backs all screwed up but I love you guys sooo much I'm gonna work extra hard to keep up. And like I realize I'm mostly writing in Mary-Lynnette's pov because the story is mostly going to be about her until...later...Let's just leave it at that. But I will keep writing from boths POV but Mary-Lynnette's is probably going to be longer and better. More in depth I mean. And there will be a point where I will write in a 3rd person POV. But that will be laaaaater on. So...Yeah...Here's the next chapter. Hope you guys like it.

Ash POV

"Okay? Are we all here?" I said looking around the room. Mentally checking off James, Quinn, Rashel, Morgead, and Jez. They all nodded in agreement as Theirry took a seat in the back of the conference room. All of them were seated around the dark oval shaped table.

"Okay. Good. Someone close the door." I said as I threw the copy of reports on the table. "Each of you get one. It's our latest assignment and an important one." They shuffled the papers around and passed them along. "Here is our target his name is Craig Logan. He is an illegitimate son of shifter and a human. We don't really have that much information on him but for some reason he's become a problem for circle daybreak." I said as I hung a picture of a man with dark hair and dark brown eyes with a clip magnet. "Theirry has more information so I will turn this meeting over to him." I said before I took my seat next to James. I was going to sit next to Quinn but he was beside his soulmate.

Theirry placed five more pictures up on the board. They were of young teenage girls. All of them looked around Mary-Lynnette's age. They looked happy and full of life.

"These are pictures of his victims. There are five of them. But only two bodies have been recovered." Theirry posted two more pictures under the first and third picture. They were of their dead bodies and their faces after the autopsy. They looked so different in their two pictures. It was hard to believe they were the same people.

The tension in the room was almost audible with how little noise there was. " He has raped then killed them all." Theirry said in hard voice. " He has posed as a simple workman like a teacher or postman. Too find out what he can about these girls. Victim number 1:Tara James. July 19th, 2008. She was 16. He posed as a gardener and became obsessed with her. One day he made a move on her and she rejected him. The next day she was gone. They found her body states away from her home in Ohio to New York. The autopsy report showed signs of rape and multiple lacerations to her stomach. She bled to death. She was found in the bushes of central park." Theirry said as he referred to the first photo. My eyes widened. Tara was a girl with blonde hair and evergreen eyes. In the first photo where she was alive, she looked so happy and full of life. I felt bad for her and her family.

"Victim number 2: Katherine Mercer. October 29th ,2008. Logan lived across the street from Katherine. Same deal became obsessed and confessed his love, got rejected. She went missing two days later. Her remains haven't been found, but we are almost sure she's dead." Theirry said in a quiet awkward way. He went on with the other victims, But I didn't really pay that much attention.

"Any questions?" He said once he was done.

"What's his shift form?" Quinn asked as he looked up from the report pages.

"We think he might be a wolf. Or a large cat of some sort. There were claw and teeth marks on a few of the victims. " Theirry replied. "This mission is your guys top priority and I don't want another girl dead or raped. Ash, I'm placing you in the lead of the mission you will make periodic reports to me. Quinn, your second in command. First thing I want you guys to do is study the case a bit more. You guys need to make a visit to where both bodies where found. See if we missed anything. If absolutely necessary we have the bodies in case you guys decide you want to look for something specific. I want you guys to have a list of possible locations where he might be. Get a lock on his location as soon as you can. I don't want another dead body. Are we clear?" Theirry stated.

"Clear!" Everyone replied.

I sighed this was not going to be a good assignment.

Mary-Lynnette POV

I sighed and took my seat beside Kestrel.

"Hey, Mare? Did you do the homework? I really didn't feel like doing it last night." I handed her my notebook.

"Hey whats the matter?" She said noticing my lack of conversation.

"Nothing." I said quietly.

Kestrel focused in on something on my face. " Have you been crying?"

I sniffled. "No."

"Wow, fail. Mare. Complete fail." Kestrel laughed.

"Okay! Okay! Come on guys class has started the bell has rung." said in annoyed tone.

"Our valedictorian for the year of the senior graduates has been named." She continued and everyone got quiet."Mary-Lynnette Carter congratulations! You're the valedictorian of the seniors of 2010 school year."

My eyes widened. "Thanks."

Kestrel mumbled. "Over achiever."

Okay yeah not the best. But I didn't want to keep you guys waiting for the next chapter. Next chapter will be intense. Just telling you.
