The Hybrid

Chapter 11

Chapter 11

Once we all jumped into the SUV Alex drove off into the city. Adrenaline still rushed through my veins, while my body shifted into my usual human state.

“Where did you disappear? You were supposed to stay on our side” Alex’s angry voice filled the car.

I rolled my eyes at him “I went to the bathroom” I replied with the same sharp voice.

“You couldn’t tell us?” Markus turned around in his seat to face me.

“You were busy” my voice calmed as the adrenaline slowly left my body.

“What are you,” I asked cautiously, leaning forward between the two of them, remembering their speed and strength during the fight.

They both glanced at each other “what do you mean”

“Your strength and speed were the same as the vampires. What are you? Are you vampires?” I pushed the question.

“We’re humans Ellie,” Markus turned his head towards me, his voice and facial expression were softer than his usual he would use towards me.

“No, you’re not, humans don’t fight like this” I narrowed my eyes at both of them.

Alex let out a sigh of defeat “ok...no point lying. We are the descendants of the first slayer ever. We have supernatural speed and strength, but we are humans.”

My eyes widened at the revelation, my mouth slightly opened. I blinked a few times snapping myself out of the shock. “Only you two and Liam have those powers? The rest are just regular humans?”

“Yep” replied Markus.

Leaning back into my seat I crossed my arms over my chest. My mind swirled with the information I just found out. They were powerful, I needed to be more careful around them. They could easily kill me if they wished. In the next few minutes, I found myself asking “do those missions always end up like this?”

“No something went wrong” Alex's voice echoed in the car as he watched the roar in front of him.

“Ya, something went horribly wrong, it felt like a trap, I don’t know where the vampires kept coming from” Markus glanced at me.

I watched him as he turned around watching the road in front of him. I furrowed my eyebrows. Why is he so nice to me all of a sudden? I thought.

For the rest of the ride, I kept quiet, thoughts of what happened in the club filled my mind. The thought of my brother killing our mother made my heartache. How could he do that? I couldn’t understand that. On top of that, he wanted me dead too, he hated me. My heart sank at the thought of that. He was my blood, my only living family I didnt know I had only a few hours ago. I felt dread in the pit of my stomach when I realized he will be after me. He won’t rest until I am dead. My vision began to blur with tears filling my eyes. I quickly blinked them away. Not wanting the slayers to see me crying, being weak. My eyes wandered into the rear mirror and saw emerald green eyes gazing at me. I quickly snapped my eyes away glancing outside the window watching nature passing by, in the darkness.

Passing through the big hallway I heard Alex “Liam” he paused “we need to talk” he paused again “ok, I’ll meet you there” he spoke through his earpiece.

While we still walked his gaze found me and Markus “before you go your way we need to report to Liam” I nodded and followed behind him. We walked until we reached Liam’s office.

Once we entered I immediately sat down on one of the chairs, feeling exhausted and my legs hurting from the high heeled boots I had to fight in. Liam rushed in only seconds after us. Glancing at him he wore only pyjama bottoms and a hoodie.
