Shaggy pov.

I couldn't believe it I'd gotten her name. I knew her name. I wasn't sure what to do with myself then I realized how tired I was. My thoughts were running a race through my head when I got back to my room. Thinking about what van Hellscream had done. Questioning everything I was ever taught. I didn't know what to believe anymore. It will probably never cease to amaze me how different these people thought, looked and acted. Fred always told us that to die because of a monster was a cowards death but Christina said she'd gladly give her life to help her kind. She was protective of them. She seemed to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders.

I'd never heard her complain or bark orders like an army general. She seemed to value what the others thought. I'd hardly met anyone like her before. I had a lot of questions burning in my mind. I sat down on my bed and looked at the book Thorn had left me. I decided now was a good time to read it. The book was another one on werewolves no surprise there. Thorn's excuse for owning these before was so she knew who she was up against but part of me wondered if that was ever her real reason. Thorn was always an oddball. Fred would always question her at every opportunity. Why she dressed the way she did on her off days. Why she owned all these books.

I didn't see the problem. Fred was just highly suspicious of everything. Which I suppose was why he was Van Hellscreams favorite. It was disgusting really. The ranking system they used. I was an excellent hunter but held at a low rank because Fred didn't like me. Here, however, there was no such thing. They all worked in sync like a great machine. Maybe just maybe I'd like it here after all. I started to get sleepy while I was reading so I put the book down and closed my eyes.

…..


It was cold and dark I couldn't see where I was but I heard a voice.

"Okay mutt tell us what you know and we might let you live"

It was Fred's voice.

"I-I don't know what you're talking about " I replied nervously.

There was a stinging pain as Fred slapped me.

"Tell me what you know or your girlfriend gets it" he barked angrily.

"Girlfriend?" I asked.

The lights came on and I could see Christina. She was beaten and tied down to a table with a blindfold over her eyes.

"Your little girlfriend there isn't awake yet I highly doubt she'll like the wake-up call we've got planned"

"Don't hurt her " I begged.

"Tell us what you know then"

"I don't know anything "

"Liar"

….


I woke up when I hit the floor. Why did these dreams keep happening? I looked to my right and saw the book Thorn had left me. Hastily I grabbed it and began looking through it again until I found what I was looking for. Fated matches. I scanned the page until I found the answer. Dreams it talked about dreams. Having the dreams before you meet. Denial when you realize it. It was weird how detailed this was. However, I dropped the book when I realized what this meant. Christina was my match! Why? How? She'd never accept it I knew that already. Besides I'd only known her for a few weeks there was no way I loved her. As I stood up I began to wonder how she'd take it if she knew.

"I won't tell her or anyone else"

Christina pov.

I was in a garden. The sun was shining down and it looked like it did before this mess started. The garden itself was filled with roses of all different colors. There were red roses, white roses, purple and my favorite pink roses. I looked around this place in awe. I realized I didn't care how I'd gotten here I didn't want to leave this place.

"Christina"

I turned and there he was right behind me. He came closer.

"What are you doing here?" I asked confused.

"I came to see you like I promised" he replied coming even closer and taking my hand.

"I don't remember," I said slowly a little nervous at how close we were now.

"Well then let me remind you," he said in a teasing voice as he leaned closer.


I apparently dozed off again. This was really starting to get annoying. Luckily the only thing I had left to do was visit the kids. So standing up I left my office. I was happy to have a nice distraction. I walked through the halls trying to figure out why I kept dozing off. I groaned in frustration and decided to read later to find the answer.

"Christina you'll want to see this " Danny exclaimed appearing in front of me.

"What is it?" I asked.

"It's Spectra hurry"

"What's going on? Is she alright?" I asked breaking into a sprint as Danny flew ahead of me.

"Just hurry" Danny replied as the infirmary came into view.

I wasted no time throwing the door open to see Spectra sitting up a hundred percent better.

"Surprise " Danny cried with a lopsided grin.

I proceeded to slap the back of his head lightly but still enough to sting.

"Ow, what the heck was that for?" He asked rubbing his head.

"That is for giving me a panic attack " I replied before giving Spectra a hug.

"It was her idea"

"Is this true?" I asked Spectra.

"Unfortunately yes it is" she laughed.

"Why?"

"We were just having a little fun Christina "

"By giving me a panic attack?"

"Sorry" Danny laughed.

"Yeah, sure you are. Danny, don't you have somewhere important to be?" I asked.

"Oh, Molly's going to kill me!" Danny cried flying out of the room while Spectra and I laughed.

"Good luck Danny"
