Maya's POV

"Can I have it please?" I attempted, batting my eyelashes.

"First tell us why you lied."

"Yeah. Why'd you lie?" Brody added on, pulling out a chocolate bar from his pocket.

"I didn't lie, technically." I tried reaching for the phone, that was still ringing. Ivanov I am actually going to kill you.

"Technically?" Xander pestered, flipping the phone in his hands to taunt me.

Brody was just sitting happily munching on his chocolate.

"Yes technically. Because it technically isn't mine." It was the truth, the burner phone was bought under the alias 'Mabel Armstrong'. And as far as I'm concerned my name's Maya.

"Then who's is it?"

"Yeah, who's is it?" Brody was smiling happily.

"It's an old foster brother's." I lied, getting impatient. The phone was still ringing and I needed to pick up.

"If you don't give me the phone, I am going to rip your throat out with my teeth." I lowered my tone, my voice deadly quiet now, instead of shouting.

Xander laughed, until I let out a low growl. Then his eyes widened and he dropped the phone, leading me to catch it quickly. Pressing the answer button, I ran out of the room and quickly sped off into Tyler's room- which happened to be the one at the end of the corridor.

Putting the phone up to me ear, I lent on the door, "Как дела?" (What's up?)

"ничего особенного." The person on the phone sassed. (Nothing special.)

"что ты хочешь, Андрей?" I asked, eager to get the conversation over quickly: I was almost certain that the boys were eavesdropping, and although I doubted they knew Russian, I didn't want to take any chances. (What do you want, Andrei?)

"Can I not just call my favorite Capitan, just to say hello?" His thickly accented voice turned gravelly from the bad connection.

"Нет." I stated, keeping to Russian. A scowl making it's way onto my face as I heard footsteps shuffle outside. Nosy dicks. (No.)

"Отлично, Отлично. Fine. Mне требуется ваша помощь." He explained, making me nod subconsciously. Of course he did, question was with what. (I need your help.)

"Чем я могу помочь? Что еще более важно, куда мне ?" I corrected myself. (How can I help? More importantly, where should I go?)

"У нас есть друг, который не хочет сотрудничать. Нужны ваши методы." He explained. An eager smile grew on my face, before I shook it away, not liking my reaction to his words. (We have a friend who doesn't want to cooperate. We need your methods)

"Sure. Have tranceport sent to my address. I'll be ready within the hour." I ended the conversation, knowing that Andrei was fully aware of where I was.

Standing up straight, I spun on my heels and swung open the door suddenly, causing Brody to fall at my feet, Xander falling on top of him.

"It's so nice to know that I have friends who appreciate my privacy." I smiled sarcastically, before my smile turned to a scowl. Walking past them, I walked in the direction I Came from, and pulled out my backpack from my suitcase.

Xander's POV

"If you don't give me the phone, I am going to rip your throat out with my teeth."

I began to laugh at her joke, that was, until I realized that her joke wasn't one. I felt my eyes widen, as I dropped the phone. Maya nabbed it, darting out the door- a slam echoing down the corridor a moment later.

I looked toward my beta, to see he was scoffing down a chocolate bar. Snatching the bar from him, I spoke,

"D'you think we should follow her? I mean, it is pretty odd that she says she doesn't have a phone but then she actually does." I explained myself,

"Can I just point out that if this was me, you would already be at the door." commented Brody, making a scowl temporarily appear on my face.

"Obviously, you're a childish twat, and she is actually a nice person."

"Xander, she literally just threatened to rip your throat out."

"Minor detail." I muttered, before getting back on track, "but anyway, should we follow her?"

"Duh!" Brody exclaimed, walking out the room,

"Wait. Wouldn't that be rude?" I second guessed.

"She's your mate, you have a right to know." Brody attempted to clear my mind of doubt.

"But... Er.. ok then." I gave in to myself after Brody began to send me an odd look.

We walked down the corridor, and stood infront of the door that Maya was behind. Brody leant against the door, putting his ear up to it.

"What're you doing?" I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Listening." The way he spoke made it sound like it was the most obvious thing ever.

"Dude... We literally have super hearing." I scoffed at him.

"Yeah, but this is fun."

I rolled my eyes as I concentrated on Maya's voice. I couldn't make out what she was saying, until she said the name Andrei. The name sounded familiar to me, but I couldn't place it.

"Who's Andrei?" Brody voiced my thoughts. I shrugged at him and focused my hearing to see if I could hear the person on the other side of the phone, taking a step closer to Brody as I did so.

".......favorite Capitan just to say hello." the voice on the other end, was distorted slightly, but I could tell that this person was at least 25, 30 if stretching it. He had a thick accent, so he wasn't from England.

'No shit Sherlock' Aiden snapped, wanting to know what was going on with our mate.

"What's she the captain of?" again, I shrugged at Brody. Realizing that there was clearly a lot about her that I'd yet to discover. Suddenly, Maya spoke up again.

"Nyet." she growled out. Now that, sounded familiar.

"Nyet, nyet. What is that?" I muttered, thinking to myself.

"Erm, Spanish? No. German? no that's not a word. I know that cause I took german." Brody looked rather proud of himself at that. Nyet. That's when it clicked.

"Russian." Wait, why does she know Russian. Brody and I began coming up with theories as to why Maya knew Russian, when the door swung open and Brody fell down face first, taking me with him. Maya shot us a deadly smile, while I began to scold myself and Brody through mind link.

I blame him entirely.
