Until The End Of Time

Chapter 20 Where To Go From Here?

Chris seemed a little stunned and fell back on his back foot. He regained his posture and looked at her. She had the potential for the training, she was ready and willing, but she just reminded him too much of Allison, he couldn't bring himself to say yes.

"I'm sorry Kiara, but I just don't think I can do it, I'm sorry." A frown grew across her face and she went to turn away when she heard a strong voice from behind her.

"Chris, it's what Allison would have wanted. She would have wanted you to train her to and if you can't do it for Kiara or me, then do it for Allison. You know she would have trained Kiara if she was still here, so to carry on her memory train Kiara." It was Scott who was leaning against the wall. Kiara wasn't quite sure how long he'd been there, but he seemed to change Chris' mind.

"Scott's right Chris, it's what she would've wanted and if anyone would know what she would've wanted it would be Scott and you know it." Kiara was happy that Scott was sticking up for her and even Isaac who she hadn't met long ago was supporting her. Chris seemed to be thinking it over in his head and all the things he would have to do. He would have to start from the beginning all over again like he'd done with Allison. He seemed to lower his head as he spoke out.

"Okay I'll do it, but you will have to live here so I can train you and I warn it won't be easy and it will take time." Kiara smiled, well as much as she could smile after the events of the past few days.

"Thank you Mr. Argent, I will do my best and I have no problem living here since . . ." A tear grew in the corner of her eye and flowed down her cheek. The wound was still fresh and it would take some time to heal over, but this would help. Isaac moved out the door and embraced her; everyone at the apartment knew exactly how it felt to have people taken from you before their time at the hands of the supernatural.

"It's okay Kiara; we'll help you feel as good as you can, all of us." She smiled; it was nice to know that the pack would look after her. Scott thought that maybe it would be a good time to make a joke and reminisce old times.

"Hey Chris, let it be known she comes as a packaged deal. Liam will probably be around here a lot because they're together." Chris chuckled and groaned at the same time and buried his head in his hands.

"Again?" Kiara was confused, what did he mean 'again'?

"What do you mean again Mr. Argent?" Scott would have answered the question, but he wanted to know how much Chris actually knew about that time.

"Well when Allison and Scott were together my father came to town and to keep him safe I had to make them brake up, but literally every time we left the house for about an hour Scott would come over and him and Allison would spend the entire time together in her room. It really wasn't the best move to try keep Allison away from Scott because all it did was intensify their relationship. My wife Victoria before she . . . left us told me that she found out that the two of them were having sex and she was furious." Scott laughed remembering the time Victoria called him to the office and threatened him.

"You think she was furious? She called me to her office and threatened to shorten something that she was sure I wouldn't want shortened unless I stopped seeing Allison." The entire group couldn't help laugh. Although Victoria was a really mean woman she was strong and had a great sense of . . . humour. "Well I'll leave you here Kiara, if you need anything you can call and just come over and get your stuff whenever you need it and remember that we will all always be here for you if you need us. I took the liberty to tell Liam you were staying here and for him to come here when he can, so you should be seeing him sometime soon. Don't worry about school tomorrow, the rest of us will be there, but if you need anything call us okay?" Kiara liked how much Scott cared for her.
