"COME ON!" She screamed into the night, her blonde curls bouncing slightly as she broke the night with a gunshot. Dumb bitch... I thought to myself. You will attract the whole neighborhood.

"I know your still here... I can smell you, you MANGY MUT!" Another shot.

I glided across the rooftops, keeping a birds eye view on the insane hunter. Then, a shingle from the room slipped out from under my foot. I caught myself, but she heard me. I had just enough time to hear the shot, and put my arm up to catch the bullet.

Pain.

Nothing but pain, shooting through my body as I fell with a ground-breaking thud. I coughed, and moaned.

"Gotcha'." I could hear her laugh.

To bad for her it was a simple bullet, nothing I couldn't pull out and be done with.

I shot awake, replaying the moment in my head. The first time I met Kate Argent. The first bullet I took from Kate Argent. The first name called by Kate Argent. Everything from that night was a first. We were just 18 at the time...

"Get out of my head, you dumb bitch!" I can't handle it anymore. She's everywhere.

Chapter 1

"Derek~!" She sang. "Come out and play with me." She cooed sadly. She walked around, dragging her gun, looking like a lost child. Her boots gave a continuous beat, clacking lightly with every step. Her jeans, dark and skinny, fit into the black, knee-high boots with ease. Her navy tank fit her snuggly, and was sheer enough to see she was wearing a pink bra. She had a belt full of bullets, ready to put every one of them into my torso if given the chance. "Don't think I wont find you~!" Her white smile gleamed.

SMASH

"Come out, come out and play~!"

CRACK

"I'm lonely!" She cried out, putting her hand to her face to look dramatic.

"What do you want?" I finally gave in.

"Finally!" She cheered. "The same thing I always want..."

I approached her from behind, knocking the gun out of her small fingers and pinned her to the ground, face to face. Terror painted her face.

"A quick death? I can grant that..." I put my face close to hers, canines ready to sink into her throat.

Her eyes stopped me. The green pits of honesty, flickering as they looked from eye to eye. Slowly, I could feel my wolf appearance melt away as I lost myself in the gems that replaced her irises.

"I can't do it..." I whispered. "I can't kill you." I let go and allowed her to stand up as I stayed on the floor.

"Funny," She said, grabbing her gun. "I can kill you."

Pow

The bullet cut through my stomach, and lodged itself deep into my abdomen. I screamed out, blood ran from the wound, and I could feel the poison run through my veins. I laid on the floor, blood beginning to pool, my breath staggering, looking at the woman watch me wither in pain. Her eyes watched sadly, wanting to do something.

The gun was tossed aside, and Kate dropped to her knees. "Dammit, Hale." Things were getting fuzzy as I began to lose consciousness, but right before I did, I felt a knife was plunged into my wound and was followed by a hand that gripped the small bullet that was slowly killing me. Then, all black.
