ANIKA

"Why did you run from us in the woods, , if you have nothing to hid?" The female officer asked as i stared down at my hands. They were covered in scrapes from running and pushing away tree branches.

"Because the last time I was shot at two very important people died." I said looking her in the eyes.

They became unfocused.

I was quickly transferred back to that day...

"Hey,babe, are you ready?" Daniel called up to me. I smiled, relieved to hear the love in his voice. I was really starting to like Daniel. Maybe even love him...

"Almost," i said as i grabbing my phone and lip gloss before running out of my room toward the stairs.

Just as i reached the stairwell, someone rang the door bell.

"I got it!" Daniel called to me.

"Hi, how can I-" Daniel began.

"Who is it,Dan?" I called down to him as i made my way down the stairs. I was confused by the pause.

"Anika." My stalker of an ex, Robert said as i appeared at the end of the stairwell.

"Robert," I said, my breathe catching as i took in the scene. Robert was holding Daniel at gun point.

Id specifically moved away here to get away from him. Robert had become obsessed with me. Ar first it was nice,getting attention from a guy a little older. He was a Senior and i was a freshmen. Hed spend lunch with me every day, bring me flowers, meet after class.

That was at first.

Soon thereafter he started following me. Threatening anyone who got close to me. Stationing himself outside my house when i wouldnt answer his calls.

So one day my parents and i took off. We moved to a small town in Maine and didnt tell anyone who didnt absoultely need to know.

I finally thought i was safe. I started a new life here.

That was a few months ago.

Now he was standing in my foyer.

"Why does this guy say hes your boyfriend?" Robert said,snapping me out of my daze. He pushed the gun closer Daniel's temple.

"Because he is." I said stepping closer to them.

I watched Robert relax as i moved closer. I moved closer, Daniel moved away. With each step we switched.

But then Robert realized what was happening and turned the gun back on Daniel. I jumped infront of him.

I most have moved to quickly because before i knew it the gun had gone off and Daniel was falling.

I turned around in what felt like slow motion. I watched in complete shock as blood began to release its self from the wound in Daniels chest.

Robert had always been a very precise mark from all his hunting trips with his dad.

I put my hands over Daniels heart the second I could force my body to move again.

"Please,Daniel, no. Dont leave me, please. I need you, please. I love you." I said through the sobs. Daniels breathing was raged and his body was starting to shut down.

Then I heard the click.

I turned slowly, expecting the gun to be pointed at me now.

But i was wrong.

I wasnt expecting this. I wasnt expecting him to have the gun turned on himself.

" Robert, No, dont do this." i began launching to my feet. Trying to stop him.

The same way i tried to help Daniel.

I could feel myself shaking.

Robert's eyes were sad. He looked at me for a long moment then closed his eyes.

"No!" i screamed the same second that he pulled the trigger.

I feel to my knees.

I may as well have pulled the trigger myself,

"Im sorry, ." The officer said, pulling me out of my horror filled memory. I wiped my eyes and tried to steady myself.

"Is there anything else? Or can i go?" i asked, shaking my cuffed left hand for emphasis.

"No, thank you for your time. Your free to go.' she said nodding to the guard, who unlocked me..

Embry POV

"Where you the night of Ms. Hendric's abduction?" The snide officer asked me.

"With Vi, Anika and Quil at Mercy hospital." I answered. I wondered if i could break these cuffs if i just tried...

"Yes, we have the visitors log saying you left a little while before she was abducted. Can anyone vouch for your where abouts?" He asked, accusation licking his every word.

"Yeah, Quil,Violet, Anika, Mr. and Mrs. ansari and ani's siblings." i pronounced. This cop was so stupid. Why would u kidnap my best friends girl, who was my girl's best friend? seriously!

" Does this Quil have a last name? " He asked dejected.

"Atera." i said with a sly grin.

They uncuffed me and let me go.

I went straight to see Anika. And caught the tall end of her interview.

When had she been shot at?

Violet

I spent the afternoon alone.

Until i heard the loud crash, signalling soemones arrival.

Then Jane arguing with someone near the front of wherever i was.

"Who do you think you are coming here?" she asked. I could feel that shift in the air meaning she was using her powers.

Nothing happened.

But then i heard her scream. A blood curdling scream.

Then she feel silent, and a thud on the floor indicted she was out.

"Well done. Shes in the back." Alec said, seconds later. There was footsteps approuching me. i didnt even struggle, because i was confused.

Alec cleared his throat.

"Master?" he said.

"Might be best if you knock me out as well," he proposed softly. Almost amused. huh.

"of course." he sounded embarreseed.

Once Alec had fallen the feet approuched. Now i began to struggle. Why did Alec want me for himself?
