NOTE – Just letting everyone know, although there short chapters this will be a long story. I can already feel it :) Also, Matt will be a part of my story but I'm not sure if he'll be the master of the Kanima solely :) oh yeah, another twist! Hope you enjoy and feel free to review but I love that I have such a response to my story although I feel so dodgy with it ha ha. But any who, enjoy!
By the time the game had finished I found myself making plans with Erica on Sunday to hang out and have a chance to get to actually know each other better. Although, we continued to bicker continuously, as the players dragged themselves from the field I flashed a smile over to Scott who was looking at me with confusion on his face. I looked at him confidently.
"You better go, don't want to cause a reaction from the idiot brothers" Boyd stated to me, looking t Scott who was now glaring directly in our direction. More so at Erica and Boyd, this boy was kind and all but he was an extreme worrier. They're not going to maul me or anything!
Shooting him a smile I nodded to Boyd "You're right, I'll to talk to you guys later" I stated, standing up and stretching.
Wondering over to Scott and Stiles who were now chatting sternly I stopped and smiled at them.
"So did we win?" I asked, I watched intensely but I only really have the five players I actually knew and Stiles was benched the entire game.
"Of course we did, no thanks to Jackson" Stiles muttered, he was in a crabby mood...
"Okey dokey, we'll everybody has bad days know ya 'know?" I stated.
Patting me on the head playfully, Stiles smiled at me. Slapping his hand away I poked my tongue at him. Chuckling I was looking around the field at the kids that scattered themselves over the field. It didn't take me long to find Lydia and Alison. Isaac was chatting to Erica and Boys and unfortunately it didn't take me long to spot Anika getting cosy with a player from the opposite team. Rolling my eyes, I forced myself to ignore the pathetic teenager.
"You really do struggle making friends don't you?" I heard the voice of the most talked about Lacrosse player; Jackson state.
Turning to his voice, he walking over with a cocky grin I smiled at him and shrugged.
"What makes you think that?" I offered, he chuckled and shook his head.
"Just remember, if something is chasing you let's say. Who are you going to run to if you have no friends because you don't let people in?" he stated, I frowned at him.
"Depends on what was chasing me, preferably somebody with a gun" I replied, bitting my tongue.
How the hell did Jackson know something was chasing me?
"Elspeth!" Alison called out to me; looking to her I looked at an upset Lydia.
Sighing, I looked back to Jackson who was now nowhere to be seen. Frowning, I turned around and searched for him. Nowhere, well I guess he really is a ninja. Waving good-bye to Scott and Stiles, I wandered over to Alison and smiled at her.
"Let's go, don't want to break curfew" I replied playfully, she shrugged.
"Live a little will ya?" she replied, nudging me.
Laughing I shook my head, pushing off I headed off with Alison and Lydia. We'd just hit the bleachers when I heard Anika's voice stop me in my tracks. Her twisted scream was crystal clear in my ears. I would never mistake her screams. Stopping I whipped my head around to search for the blonde that I hated. People were looking around for her screams, scanning the field she was nowhere to be seen.
"Anika?" I breathed out, spinning back around.
Alison looked at me oddly "Elspeth, come on don't want to be late home" she said, as she started to pull me towards the car.
"Oh my god, stop, help!" I heard her screams again, this time I was able to more know where the screams were coming from.
Others around us, began looking for the whereabouts of the screams from the like Isaac knew where my keys where, I could almost sense where she was, Alison resisted. Trying to stop me from going to her, anger washed through me. Pushing her off, I looked at her in disbelief. Why would someone stop somebody from helping somebody? I didn't like the kid, but god forbids I wasn't going to let anything happen to her. Running off, I headed towards the voice of her screams.
As I got closer I could hear the whimpers of her cries. Slowing down, I looked around frantically.
"Anika?" I called out, a gasp rung through the air.
"Elspeth, run!" I heard her panic voice scream at me, running towards her.
I rounded the last row of cars and found her. My body froze, her frightened pale body was locked in the grip of a scaly creature whose stare caused me to do nothing but just stare. His talons to her throat, its hiss rang out through the cold air.
It was as if everything slowed down, it felt as if I could watch the scales move as the creature breathed. The air Anika sucked in as she awaited her attacker's next move. My name was rung out in the distance. Alison and Lydia called frantically. Another voice called out to me, but I was frozen. Everything was lost the moment I looked into the eyes of pure evil. I watched as the creature that didn't flinch ran his talons across her neck. The chocked gasp as the pain and blood registered to Anika's body and brain. My stomach rolled, the blood pumping in my ears drowning out the cries of Anika and those around me. Dropping her body, the thing lurked towards me. Hissing to communicate, it looked at me perplexed.
Doing the only thing I've been good at since coming to Beacon Hills, with a bunch of pent up emotion and the distress of seeing someone so innocent be torn from life in front of me. I gulped in air and screamed away the pain that I was sure to feel when reality truly hit me.
Please review! Well, I hope you enjoyed the chapter. By the way (Elspeth is pronounced Elle's Beth. In case you were wondering hahaJ) Reviews are appreciated, not mandatory! Haha J
