Grey – Chapter 2

Cassern

Julian's POV

I'm at school, getting stuff from locker for my next class, I close my locker then I turn around; I'm a little surprised by the sudden appearance of Stiles. I sigh "What do you want?" I ask a little irritated, Stiles hands me a piece of paper, I read it. It has names and numbers, I see Scott's name and the number twenty-five. I go down the list seeing names I don't recognize besides Scott's then I stop at a certain name… my name and the number four.

I look up at Stiles "Wh—what is this?" I ask confused "It's a hit list of supernatural creatures, a Deadpool." Stiles answers "Is this all of it?" I ask "No, it's one of three parts." He answers, I sigh and give him back the paper then I start to walk away "Hey, where are you going?!" I hear Stiles shout "To class!" I answer as I continue to walk. I can't think about this right now, I would like to get through the day before I deal with this crap.

I'm in the library during lunch in the hopes of avoiding Stilinski but no such luck, am I sure he isn't supernatural "What do you want?" I ask irritated "Why are you on the list? From what I researched, witches are suppose to be servants of nature." Stiles said. I give him a look, where the hell did he get this information from "Yes, witches like to believe they're servants of nature but some like to practice dark magic that can go against nature." I say, I sigh and think for a moment "I think, I know why I'm on that list…" I say.

I start to siphon the air, my hand starts to glow a red-orange, Stiles almost jumped out of his seat "Wh—what was that? What are you doing?" Stiles asks slightly panicked. I chuckle at the feeling of siphoning, I used to hate it at first but now it's like breathing "Most witches can produce their own magic and can channel magic from nature for complex spells, but they are able to give it back as well. I'm not like other witches I can't produce my own magic. I siphon magic leaving nothing behind, nature or otherwise." I say.

Stiles takes a second to process this information "I don't understand… I mean I get that you can't produce your own magic but…" He said, "Stiles, I'm a witch who can't produce their own magic. In the witch community, I'm considered an abomination of nature, a mutant witch." I say coldly, looking at Stiles. There's a tense silence "I… I didn't know that. Sorry." Stiles said solemnly, oh, will you look at that something he didn't know. I look away "I don't need pity." I mumble as gather my stuff and leave.

It's after school and I'm still mad from earlier, I'm putting my stuff away into my locker when I see Scott and Stiles pulling the new beta through the hallway. I follow them to the Boy's Locker Room, they have him under the showers as he's wolfing out trying to calm him down. I step in and give the Beta an aneurysm, it calms him down but he's also in pain. Scott and Stiles turn around and they see me "Whatever you're doing, stop it." Scott said angrily as his eyes flash red, I stop my spell and raise my hands up in surrender "Sorry." I say.

I cross my arm, they turn back to the Beta "Okay, you calm yet?" Stiles asks "Yeah, thanks to him." He said glaring at me, Scott and Stiles glance at me, I just shrug my shoulders "That car you smashed. I thought you said it was your teacher's." Scott said "He was also my Coach. He benched me for the entire season." His Beta said "What did you do?" Scott asks him "I got a couple of red cards." He answers "Just a couple?" Stiles asks not believing him "You gotta be honest with us, Liam. What else happened?" Scott asks.

Liam looks down at his hands nervously "Nothing." He said, Scott and Stiles give a look "I got kicked out of school. They sent me to a psychologist for evaluation." Liam said "What did they call it?" Scott asks "Intermittent explosive disorder." Liam answers. Stiles gives Scott a look then looks back at Liam "I.E.D.? You're a literally an I.E.D.? That's great. That's great. You gave powers to a walking time bomb." Stiles said irritated, I stifle a laugh.

A werewolf with explosive anger issues "Did they give you anything for it?" Scott asks, Liam nods "Oh, this just get better." Stiles sarcastically "But I don't take it." Liam said "Obviously." Stiles said sarcastically again as I continue to hold in my laughter "I can't play lacrosse on it. It makes me to tired." Liam said, I start to snicker then I bust out laughing. After I stop laughing, I look up at the trio they're all looking at me, I clear my throat "Sorry, I'm gonna go." I say then I leave the locker room.

I decide to go to the lacrosse skirmish, to take my mind off the Deadpool that stiles showed me earlier. I guess, I understand why I'm on the list but I don't get why I'm worth four million. I've done nothing but be born. I look up and the game seems to be over because I see the Sheriff and some deputies, my Brother included.

I walk up to my Brother "What happened?" I ask "Hello to you, too, Little Bro." Logan answers "Hello, Logan. What happened?" I ask again "Attempted murder." Logan answers. I go to leave but Logan stops me "Where are you going?" He asks "I was going—" I say but Logan give me a stern look, I sigh "I was going home." I say then Logan smiles "Good." He says. I groan as I walk away.

The next day, it's after school I'm packing my things in my locker. I close it and start to walk when I almost bump in to someone, it was Scott. He seems distraught like a lost puppy, I sidestep him "Wait, Julian. I need your help." Scott said desperately. I sigh "What do you need?" I ask, Scott tells me that Liam got kidnapped by an assassin and has been blackmailed into a jailbreak to free the assassin's partner. I sigh annoyed "Okay, so what do you want me to do?" I ask, "Help me find Liam?" Scott asks.

I think for a moment, perhaps I can use a locator spell "All right, I'll help you find him." I answer, Scott beams happily "Okay, what are you going to do?" He asks "A locator spell, do you have an item or some of his blood?" I ask. Scott's eyes widen "Blood? Why would you need his blood?" Scott asks apprehensively "It would make the spell stronger but I think I can make do with an item." I say. Scott gives me his lacrosse stick, good "I need a map too." I say, he gets me a map then an idea pops into my head "Oh, wow. How didn't I think of that?" I question out loud.

"What? What is it?" Scott asks concerned "Your blood, I could use your blood. The connection between the alpha and his beta." I say. Scott gives me a worried look "Um…" He said a little nervous "Don't worry, I just need a drop." I said smirking slightly, Scott pricks his finger and lets a few droplets fall on the map. I smirk "All right." I say getting ready "Phasmatos tribum, nas ex versa, sanguinem." I chant as the blood starts to move.

I keep chanting as the blood moves to a certain point on the map then stops, I look down at the map. It points to some forest area, I sigh "Do you know where that is?" I ask "I think so." Scott answers "Sorry, Scott. Spells like this can give a location but never an address." I say "It's alright. This actually helps, thanks Julian." Scott said smiling then he leaves. Well, that was fun.

When I get home I hear clattering in the kitchen, is Logan home early? "Logan." I call out, I reach the kitchen and it's someone I thought I'd never see again… I sigh "What the hell are you doing here?" I ask. The person in question turns around smirking "Ah, Jules, my little siphoner." He said. I sigh again in annoyance, how the hell did he find me?
