Ch. 10: Hurt or be hurt
"You did what?" Kali said
I had just explained what happened at the school today. The fight between me and Mercy at the field and Scott coming to her rescue, we were both just walking in the middle of the day in Beacon hills streets.
"Why did you do that?" she asked
"She just got me mad." He said
She nodded her head "Because she was right about you and what you might become?"
I didn't answer and I didn't have to because she is right. If I have to become a monster in order to figure out about my past, then so be it. Maybe when I am done investigating my parents death I can go back to them. I won't hold my breath for that though.
"They will probably get a little bit of revenge for what you did. You don't injure a wolf and expect the rest of the pack to sit around and do nothing. You better watch your back." She said with a grin
"You are not going to help me if that happens? What a pack we are."
Her face melted and she had a serious look on her face
"You did this, not me. I am not going to babysit you for your stupid actions."
"In my defense it was self-defense." I said chuckling
"Let's see if you can keep that smile when they beat you apart."
She ran off and left me in the dust. She had a point though, I might be in serious trouble so I better watch my back, and she also made it clear that in this situation I am an omega against a pack.
The next day in school I had a free period and I was in the gym in the top row of the bleachers. In the gym there were two double doors on the left and right side. There were six basketball hoops but only two were majors ones. I was doing some homework for some math that was due the next day when all of a sudden a fire alarm rang. I took an annoyed breath thinking that my one free period is down the drain. I started putting all my books in my backpack and I swung it around my shoulders and noticed something. I heard and smelled werewolves…. four of them and a fox.
They burst through open the doors on each side while the fire alarms were blaring. There was Scott, Maliah, Liam, and some old woman that I have never seen before. There was also Kira. I was threw my backpack to the side and took a seat on the top bleachers. Then Scott and Maliah got chains and tied up both doors meaning things could get ugly and Kali might really not help me. Then they both started walking to the middle of the court right on top of the school logo.
"Who's the old lady? Is she my replacement?" I said
"We are here to beat some sense of out you if we have to." Said Liam
"You can't beat us all." Said Maliah
If I can get my hands on Scott or that old lady I might have a chance, but I don't want to reveal my power yet ether but I will if I have to. I don't really want to get beat up by a bunch of werewolves, but I have an idea.
"You can come with us, and you won't get hurt, and I don't want to hurt you." Scott said
"The choice is yours Pierce." Said the old lady
I took a deep breath and stood up. I jumped all the way down and started walking towards Scott since he was in the front. Kira drew her katana and held it at her side just in case.
"Ok you win, I'll come back." I said as I extended my hand
Scott looked surprised but happy at the same time. He shook my hand and I smiled while he did because he fell right into my trap. I started to leech his power and it felt so right. Scott didn't know what was happening until he looked at my hands but by then it was too late. I blinked and I knew my eyes were different because Scott looked terrified. I grabbed the back of his head and pushed it forward and smiled. Then Scott collapsed and he fell to the ground. I moaned out loud of the pure energy I had. It was overwhelming and I felt stronger than ever
"SCOTT! What did you do to him?" Kira said kneeling and holding Scotts face
I shrugged "Must have been overjoyed by me coming back." I said looking at all of them smiling with my half red and black eyes. I then roared at all of them.
Kira slashed her sword at me, but I caught the blade with my hand and grasped it holding Kira. I threw the sword to the side and head butted Kira knocking her down. Both Kira and Liam charged me but before I even knew it, I had them both held up by the throats by my hands. I saw the old lady rushing towards me so I bashed both their heads together and threw them both at the old lady. She struggled to get them off them and was stuck. I was walking away when I heard a scrape of a sword off the ground. I looked behind my shoulders and saw Kira holding her sword and staring at me with anger.
"What's wrong with Scott!?" she demanded
I did not know how long Scott would be asleep but I knew it had to be at least a day. I thought of telling Kira he was going to be fine but I didn't want to give them information about my powers. I turned around and just held my hands up as if I was being arrested.
"It was your choice, to get hurt or to not get hurt. Stay out of my way and you won't get hurt, that is your choice." I said pointing a claw at her
Then Kira did something desperate. She threw her sword at me like a spear and I took a side step and grabbed the middle of the blade with both hands and snapped it in half and threw the pieces to the side. I ripped apart the chains on the door and left the scene. As I was walking away I noticed something, my hands were bleeding with deep cuts, probably from Kira's sword by me catching it but I could not feel it. I smiled and headed out to the fields knowing torture won't work on me when I have this power.
"I can't believe it." She said
"No you can't, when I sucked on Scotts power it felt complete. Like I was a stronger and I was an.."
"Like an alpha." She said
I nodded my head. I had just explained to Kali what had happened in the school and how I handled all of them. We were at the mall on the furniture store with a few couches and beds still here. I was lying down on the bed while Kali was doing the same on the couch. Her toe claws were dangling over the couch, wiggling and dancing. Is it weird if I think that's cute?
"That old lady was an alpha. Who was she?" I asked
"Satomi but don't worry about her she's not important. What is important is Scott." She said
"An alpha is not important? Is that not the whole reason Deucalion if off? Leaving us to go find some alphas?" I said
"She won't join us if that's what you mean." She said staring at the celling
"So what makes Deucalion think that Scott will join us?"
She shrugged "Ask him when he gets back."
"What I really want to ask him is if he knew my parents because if he did, then he was holding back information. If that's the case, were going to have problems." I said
She laughed "Don't you think you a little over your head? Just because you took on two alphas and some betas does not mean you can take him on."
"I never said I was going to fight him, just an argument. Besides you taught me how to mask my scent and now I can be invisible to most wolves." I said
"Then you should dress like that." She said
I stood up from my bed and walked to her and stood over her.
"What?" I said looking down on her
"You should dress all black so eyesight is even harder way for them to detect you." She said looking at me
"I am not a ninja as much as I want to be." I said laughing
She shrugged "If you say so." She said laughing
I thought about what she said. What could go wrong?
"Ok fine, get me an outfit but I want an idea of what it will look like." I said
"Just like a jacket with a hoodie and a mask covering your mouth."
I kind of felt weird about this whole idea of being like an assassin werewolf but Kali seemed sure of herself. I just thought with my height they could recognize me but I guess that's the whole point. Don't let them see me, that sounds simple enough.
"It would suit you since you are one of the fastest wolfs probably alive."
"Suit me huh?" I said
"You know what I mean." She said she said
"Well how long will it take you to get your hands on one?" I asked
"Not long at all maybe a day or two."
"Then in the meantime I am going to train and if Deucalion is not back by that time, then I am off and am looking for answers for my deceased pack and my parents." I said
"Where are you going to start looking?" she asked
"I have looked up my last name and I got some results for missing people in a city not far from here with my last name. When I do that I am going to find out who took my memories and kill him."
