Kierra woke up Saturday morning and stretched. She got up and went outside to train; she was dressed in grey sweatpants and a black wife-beater. She always trained in her backyard on Saturday's it helped her focus and keep her cool. Sometimes she would train for hours without stopping. Her aunt and uncle were both gone to work so she was alone.
Keeping her focus Kierra did a roundhouse kick. She could sense someone watching her and threw her Sai in that direction.
"Never knew you empath-assassins liked to be alone." The guy said.
"Who are you?"Kierra asked.
"Derek Hale." He replied
"How do you know what I am." She asked again
"Our family ancestors know each other. I'm supposed to protect you." Derek said walking toward her with her Sai in his hand.
"And why should I believe you." Kierra said raising her chin in defiance.
"Because you could sense if I was lying or not…So am I lying." Derek said stepping in front of her.
"No, but that still doesn't explain why you're here right now." Kierra said.
"I'm here to warn you." He replied.
"Warn me about what exactly? Kierra asked looking up at him.
"About Deucalion." Derek said.
As soon as he said that name Kierra tensed. Her family was trying to find him for years but he was in hiding. Derek could hear her heart beating with anger and adrenaline.
"So I guess he's out of hiding." Kierra said jaw clenched.
"Yes, the only thing that I know right now is that he's back and he wants something." Derek said.
"Let me guess, you're gonna make sure that I'm protected." Kierra sarcastically stated.
"Yes, it's part of our family pact. You're the most powerful empath-assassin of your bloodline and the last protector I have to keep you safe." Derek said with intensity.
"I know, but that doesn't make this any easier." She replied taking back her Sai.
Derek watched her as she continued training. It was his job to protect her and he was going to make sure that she was safe if it was the last thing he ever had to do.
"You know instead of standing there watching me, you could at least help me train." Kierra said facing him.
Derek nodded his head and they began their session.
They walked into her house an hour later. Kierra looked at her phone and saw that she had a missed call from Allison and decided to call her back.
"Hello" Allison answered.
"Allison, you called me what's up?" Kierra said getting straight to the point.
"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out with me and Lydia today."
"Sounds good to me I just have to shower and get dressed amongst other things." Kierra said.
"Ok sounds good just come over my house." Allison replied.
"Alright bye." Kierra said and hung up. She looked up and saw Derek standing next to her.
"Should we tell them about Deucalion?' she asked
"Scott already knows about him but if you want to tell the others then you have to tell everyone the truth. Including Isaac and Stiles." Derek said.
"They can't know about me, not even Scott." Kierra said.
"You know they're going to figure it out sooner or later." Derek replied.
"They won't figure it out today especially not from you." Kierra said looking in his eyes.
"Fine, but text me when you get to Allison's so I'll know that you're safe." Derek said.
"Fine I'll let you know if I'm safe." Kierra said rolling her eyes.
Derek nodded and left.
Kierra went upstairs to shower and get ready. Thirty minutes later, Kierra was dressed in black skinny jeans and a grey t-shirt with white air force ones. Blue leather jacket on she grabbed her keys along with her phone and left for Allison's.
Pulling up at Allison's building Kierra couldn't help the dreadful feeling that consumed her body. Usually she follows her instincts and avoids those kinds of situations. Instead she ignored the feeling and got out her car.
Making sure she had everything Kierra had each of her jackets custom made for her weapons. Putting her Sais away she made her way inside to see her friends. As she continued her way into the building the dreadful feeling got worse. Becoming alert Kierra clenched her fist in anticipation, her body pumped with adrenaline; heart racing with anger, and feet posed for a fight Kierra pressed the button for the elevator.
The elevator came to a stop on the first floor. Kierra could sense something evil behind the metal doors.
The doors opened and revealed…
Sorry to cut it short right there but I wanted it to be suspenseful at the end. You'll just have to wait until the next chapter is posted in order to find out who is in the elevator. Review and tell me what you think.
