The next day
" I know your not used to him so I'll let you decide"
'mhmm guess that solves it...' Nova mentally concluded with a small smile on her face, as she turned around the kitchen counter to which she stood a moment ago talking to the commander, she came face to face with luc.
The boy was hunched over the very edge of the counter staring at her boredly. He carefully played with his glass of water in one hand while the other supported him.
A few seconds of silence passed as the two simply stared at each other. Both of them lost in their own train of thought.
He raised his glass to his lips. In that moment, her blue eyes softly glanced towards his necklace, acknowledging it properly for the same time.
In all honesty, it resembled a collar of some sort. It was black with a few buttons at the back and it had vertical line running down below his ear which usually luminated a bright yellow glow. 'wonder what's that about-'
"Are you just gonna stand there or are we gonna discuss the plans?" Luc stated bluntly as he took a seat on one of the four home themed bar stools, never taking his gaze of her.
I blinked a few times, setting my mind back on topic with a sigh.
Luc was right, but this all seemed surreal that my brain couldn't process any of this or even think of the outcomes. They were all jumbled up mixed with emotion and plans that I couldn't think straight until one thought came in mind which had me searching for my phone.
Ryker directly said that I would be working with luc... Yess that part was clear, but. Were is he going to stay?what about the rouges, will I have to work with him on those missions... My missions. Im not gonna get paid only for someone to finish my food, electricity and whatever else I can't remember.
Not to mention he's weird, I mean having a werewolf around isn't the most bizarre thing but come-on! He is relaxed most of the time but you can just feel his ego radiating off of him'
But it was all answered when the commander picked up my call. Apparently I would be living with him until the ordeal with galactia is over, but I had the choice to go with or without him on my missions.
I furrowed my eyebrows as he raised his own at my expression, closing my eyes I let out a sigh.
If he's gonna live here he needs to remember where he's living and with who....
"Listen luc, I don't know how this is gonna work out but I have a mission. A mission directed from me by Ryker and I'm sure as hell not gonna let anything, compromise it"
Nova Heald a strong gaze while staring at his unamused golden eyes as she said her final words.
"Especially one of your kin-"
As if in slow motion, she saw the once bright yellow glow blink a shade of red mixed with black and in a blink of an eye luc had pushed nova against the wall with both hands on her sides.
Nova was caught of guard by the speed that she flinched when she faced him.
His golden eyes now had a black tint while his hair blocked the other, his teeth grew sharper and black veins started flowing across his arm and neck.
Nova POV
In that moment, vivid flashes of what happened to them appeared, their lifeless and bloodied bodies laying unmoving from the ruthless onslaught of what had happened.
Broken bones, torn limbs, exposed... slashed skin. Blood, blood...blood on the floor, on their clothing, on the ground. On its fur.... because they killed them, it killed them.
"My kind?" He said back the words as if they were new to him.
Luc's voice was nearly growly, only staring condescendingly down her form.
His voice brought her back to her senses only for it to be overpowered by her now uprising blood thurst.
He was about to say something but nova lifted herself up and kicked him in the chest, causing him to slide back.
Nova's eyes flashed with anger as Luc approached her, his movements fluid and predatory. She stood firm, hand on the hilt of her dagger.
"I won't let anything compromise my mission, especially your kind," Nova spat, venom in her voice.
Luc's gaze narrowed, his jaw clenched. "My kind?" he growled, taking another step closer.
Nova's instincts screamed warning. She drew her dagger, its silver edge glinting in the dim light.
Luc snarled, lunging forward. Nova dodged, but he was too fast. He pinned her against the wall, his breath on her neck.
"You think I'm a monster, don't you?" Luc's voice was low, menacing.
Nova struggled, but Luc's grip was unyielding. She kneed him, aiming for his stomach, but he shifted, taking the blow on his thigh.
With a snarl, Nova raked her dagger across Luc's arm. He grunted, releasing her. She spun away, creating distance.
But Luc recovered quickly. He seized Nova's wrist, twisting it until she dropped her dagger. He slammed her back against the wall, his eyes blazing.
"Why do you fear me? " Luc demanded, his voice inches from Nova's face.
He couldn't comprehend what was going on, first her scent and now her last Statement. Not only did it pulge his curiosity it also brought back some memories he hoped would be forgotten.
Nova's eyes flashed with defiance. "You're...like them" she faced nothing but the floor, "your kind..." his grip tightened, anger rising she lifted her head. Her hair purply shielding her now hostile and cold eyes as purple veins sprouted and pulsed throughout her arms and neck.
She lunged forward, but Luc's grip Heald her from getting close, that movement allowed him to see the tear stains she was trying to hold back. But that only angered her more.
"I'm not a rogue," he said softly, hesitantly
"Back off, werewolf," Nova warned, hand on her dagger.
Luc's gaze never wavered. "You think you're better than me? The world doesn't revolve around princess"
Nova's temper flared. "I'm protecting humans from monsters like you!."
Luc snarled, lunging forward. Nova drew her dagger, but Luc was too fast. He pinned her against the wall,
"You're no better than the rogues," Nova spat, struggling.
Luc's grip tightened. "I'm not a rogue," he growled. "But you're pushing me there."
Nova's eyes flashed with fear, memories of her parents' death resurfacing.
"Let me go!" she yelled, now losing every sense of control, teath becoming sharper due to her flight or fight response but also from her anger
"Your kind, your lives, you..you- your blood! Your the reason why hundreds of life's are being lost, more lives are suffering!" Her blue eyes were once calm but now they looked about ready to kill, and subconsciously luc loosened his grip on her hands.
The confusion again drawed out his anger, he was more concerned and curious rather than angry although he was pissed off. Her reaction from such a simple action wouldn't be called normal, then again...she did think he was a rouges.
....what happened to her?
A moment later nova was hit with a shock wave that numbed her resulting in her sliding towards the floor.
"....nova?" Luc said to no-one but himself as he stared at her only to hear.
"Hehe~, now who the hell are u"
Followed a faminine laughter, a cold gun to his back and then...darkness
