Grey – Chapter 1
Cassern
Julian's POV
Logan has been driving for a while, we see the welcome sign to Beacon Hills, the second he drove in I felt this weird energy. It's almost as if there's magic in the air, I wonder if I can siphon it. I raise my hand up and it starts to glow a red orange "What are you doing?" Logan asks "Nothing." I say as I stop siphoning, he chuckles "You feel it, don't you?" Logan asks, "I felt it the second we rode in. This town is brimming with supernatural energy and probably magic." I say.
We move into our new house and unpacked everything then we go to bed, because I have school tomorrow and my Brother has to be sworn in as a deputy. The next day, Logan drops me off at school, god, there is so much magical energy in this town. I start to siphon the air then I go inside to grab my schedule. Classes were boring but I'm sure I'll pass them with relative ease, after school I decide to check out this school's sport; lacrosse. It seems barbaric to me but, hey, what do I know.
I'm sitting on the bleachers watching their tryouts I can feel at least three supernatural creatures in my presence just not sure… oh wait, I think two of them are sitting in the bleachers and the third is out in the field, just not sure which player it is. Of course, there's supernatural at the school, anyway, I watch the tryouts and I reiterate this game is barbaric.
I just saw a junior get his ass handed to him by freshman out in the field, the junior's friend drags him away, it was actually amusing. I see a girl a few rows below me, she's sniffing then starts talking to the girl next her. They finished talking about whatever they were talking, the girl sniffs the air again then turns her head around and stares at me and I stare back. The girl's eyes glow blue, my eyes widened slightly and I shallow a lump in my throat but I calm down.
The girl turns around quickly, a werewolf with blue eyes, that means they've killed an innocent person or people. Logan told me about them and their different eye colors and if there's one wolf there has to be a pack, great. My thoughts are interrupted when I hear a commotion out in the field, a freshman, I think got injured. I sigh and get up, I start to walk home and call my Brother "Logan." I say "What's up, little bro. How was school?" He asks over the phone "Boring. But, there is something interesting that happened. I think there's a local pack here." I say.
"And what makes you say that?" He asks "Because I saw a wolf, she sniffed me out but I don't think she knew what I was. Her eyes just glowed blue." I answer matter of factly, silence then "Meet me at the hospital, I'm guarding a patient… I'll tell you more when you get here." Logan said then he hangs up, what's got him so serious.
I get to the hospital and see my Brother waiting for me in his deputy uniform, I stifle a laugh, he looks a little snug in his uniform. He glares at me "Stop laughing and come on." He said, I follow after him. We take the elevator to the second floor, Logan tells me about a family of wendigos that were murdered but there was a survivor, a son. My Brother and another deputy are guarding him.
When we get to the second floor, we see a nurse being dragged into one of the rooms, we run to the room to see the nurse about to get eaten by the wendigo "Motus." I chant, moving the nurse away from the wendigo, Logan catches her. The wendigo charges at me but I give it an aneurysm and it falls to its knees then a crooked jaw teenager knocks away the wendigo and it runs away.
The crooked jaw teen goes to check on the nurse then he runs in the direction of the wendigo. I look to my Brother "Go, I'll stay here with her and for god's sake, be careful." He said. I go up to the roof to see the crooked jawed teen trying to talk down the wendigo who holds the injured freshman hostage, which is stupid but I'll give him points for trying "Don't. You don't need this. Whatever it is. Whatever you are, we can help you." Crooked Jaw said "No, you can't." The Wendigo says "Let me help you." Crooked Jaw said "Wendigos don't need help. We need food!" It yells.
Crooked Jaw, who I now realize is a werewolf with red eyes because his face is wolfed out, an alpha werewolf, he charges at the wendigo as he let's go of the injured freshman and he nearly falls off the roof but the alpha catches the freshman before he falls. The wendigo tries to stop the alpha but I give the wendigo an aneurysm then I hear a scream, the alpha bit the freshman.
Great, if what Logan told me about alpha wolves were true then we either have a new wolf or a dead kid the next day. Suddenly a projectile, whirls in the air and strikes the wendigo in its chest, it was a tomahawk. I turn in the direction from where the tomahawk came from and I see a tall man with no mouth, he puts his finger to his non-existent mouth in a shushing motion then he leaves. I hear a groan I turn around to the Alpha and possibly his new Beta, the Alpha looks at me wondering what I am, I sigh shaking my head "Idiot." I mumble then I walk away.
What a way to end a night, mouthless tomahawk thrower, alphas biting teenagers… something tells me my nights will not be relaxing. The next day, I'm at school riffling through my locker to get stuff for my next class, hoping for a normal day but I don't think it's possible. Because I feel two people behind me, I turn around and see the crooked jawed Alpha and his Friend "Hi, uh…" He said "What are you?" His Friend asks, well, straight to the point.
I sigh "You're not even going to even ask my name?" I ask "Julian Grey." His friend said, I look at him stunned "How do you know that?" I ask narrowing my eyes "My Dad's the Sheriff and your Brother is the new deputy, Logan Grey. Is he supernatural too?" His friend asks, well, he's well-informed.
I lean back on my locker and let out a breath "Are you gonna tell your names or…" I say waiting for an answer "Scott." The alpha said "Stiles." His friend said, what kind of name is that? "Okay, I'm a witch and so is my Brother." I said, they're stunned for a moment "So, you're like a spell casting, potion brewing, broomstick flying witch?" Stiles asks, I give him a look "Yes, all that except for the broomstick part." I answer.
I look at Scott "Is that freshman you bit, alive?" I ask, he nods "Good." I say, because I didn't want any unnecessary trouble then I turn around get my stuff from my locker and start to walk away "Whoa, whoa, hey wait!" I hear Stiles shout. I sigh as I turn around "Yes?" I say a little irritated "Um, don't you have question for us?" Stiles asks "Nope, Alpha Werewolf." I say pointing to Scott "Human, I think." I say pointing to Stiles "That's all I need to know." I say then I turn back around and go to class.
I went home after school, my brother is home on his lunch break, he's making a sandwich "Hey, little bro. Was school boring again?" Logan asks amused "Not really, I met the Alpha today. His name is Scott." I answer "That kid who charged at the wendigo?" He asks "Yeah." I answer "So, does he know what you are?" Logan asks "Yes, because I told him and so does the Sheriff's kid. He's friends with him, I think." I answer.
Logan stops what he's doing and turns around stunned then sighs "I think the Sheriff knows about the supernatural." He said "Oh. Why do you say that?" I ask "Because at work he kept giving me sideway glance as if he was afraid something would happen." He answers. Logan sighs "I have to get back to work." He said "See ya later, little bro." He said "Yeah, see ya later and good luck, I guess." I say, Logan sigh again and leaves. Later, I go to my room and do my homework then I lay on bed thinking about what happened last night and today. Werewolves and Wendigos, I wonder what else goes bump in the night.
