The unwanted Assassin

Chapter Two: Part Three

Once again 5 pairs of eyes snap up to me. Two of which I already recognize as Carter, and Jax. I walk towards them until I am standing in front of the sofa. I clasp my hands behind me, and meet Carter's eyes waiting for him to begin.

"Well" Carter starts, he clasps his hands in front of him, and stands up "Let's begin shall we. Jax you already know" He says as he clasps Jax on the shoulder. He walks over to two others on the opposite sofa.

They look almost identical to each other. Both of them have blond hair cut close to the scalp, which is in contrast to their deep brown skin. Both of them are dressed in a gray hoodie, and matching sweatpants.

"These are the twins" He begins.

 I quickly interrupted him, " identical twins. Luca, and Logan Parker. 23 years of age. Both of them skilled in battle, but they're strongest with guns. They both enjoy spending their free time at the twisted sister club, as well as often visiting their parents at their estate on the other side of the city" I finish blandly. Everyone looks at me stunned. I flit my gaze over them all before landing on a familiar pair of green eyes.

I walk over to him, and stand in front of him. I look down at where he is sitting "Grant" I say. Grant stands up towering over at me.

"Alana it's good to see you" He speaks his voice deeper since the last time I saw him. He chuckles down at me before pulling me into a hug. I freeze initially before finally lifting arms up, and returning the hug.

We pull away from each other. I give him a cold look before reaching forward, and grabbing his arm, yanking him forward. I lean down, and throw him behind me causing him the land with a big thud behind me.

I spin around, and watch as the four others begin walking forward with their expressions hard. Grant waves them away as he coughs on the ground attempting to catch his breath. I walk forward till I'm standing in front of him.

"That is for not telling me that you would be in my squad" I say before offering my hand to help him up.

"Ya, ya I know. But I figured it would be a nice surprise to have someone you know in your squad" He says as he clasps his hand in mine. I haul him up not bothering to wait for him to be ready, which causes him to stumble as he gets to a standing position.

 Grant stands beside me, and we both look over to the others, each of their faces filled with different measures of confusion.

"Yes we know each other" Grant starts "we know each other through my dad" he finishes as he walks back over to the sofa, and sits down with a soft thud.

"Are you two? You know" Luca says, pointing between us. His brows raised in question.

My lips turn down in disgust as Grant chuckles "ya know, she's like an annoying little sister to me" He says. I shoot him a withering look, which only causes him to chuckle more.

Everyone goes back to sitting, leaving me standing. "Well, seeing as you surprisingly know everyone else. Why don't you tell us about you?" Carter asks.

I lower myself to the ground, and sit with my legs crossed in front of me. "You know there's room on the sofa" Grants says as he pats the empty space next to him.

Looking down at the spot then back at him I speak "I know" My tone is cold. I don't bother saying anymore on the subject. I look away. "My name is Alana Graves. 22 years old. I worked for the government for 2 years before coming here, and that's it" I say feeling as if I was back in school, and introducing myself to the class.

"That's it. That's all your gonna give us. What about your past? What did you do for the government? Heck, even before that" Logan asks, each question in rapid fire after the other. 

 Jax clears his throat, causing everyone to look in his direction. Only when my eyes meet his does he start speaking "Yes, please enlighten us on things we don't already know" as he finishes he scoots towards the end of the sofa, and interlocks his fingers in front of him, the position screaming that he is used to getting what he wants.

I continue to hold his stare as I speak "Before coming to Winchester I worked with Grant's Father" I move my eyes over to Grant briefly. Sighing I move my eyes to a spot in front of me that is not currently inhabited by boys.

 "I worked for them for two years. I'm not sure exactly what the boss told you all about the work I did for them, but let's just say I took care of the scum of the city, as well as taking the odd interrogation job or two". Pausing briefly I think over what I am about to say next "And before that I did relatively the same thing, just under different employment" I finish.

That wasn't exactly a lie, I simply bent the truth a little. I look over at everyone's face, and see each one filled with the same wanting expression. Sighing I continue to tell them about myself "And before any of that I lived with my parents, and siblings on the other side of the city" I stop there not willing to go into any more detail about the past. "That's all you need to know" meeting Carter's eyes I gave him a stern look, silently telling him that I was done talking. 

Carter clears his throat then speaks "Right, yes. Thank you for sharing" he pauses "if you like" He doesn't get to finish before a knock sounds from the head of the room. I quickly stood up followed by everyone else. Luca steps forward to go, and answer the door.

I lift my hand up effectively stopping him "No need it's for me". I turn on my heels, and begin walking towards the door.

"Who?" I hear a voice say behind me, but I don't bother to continue listening. I make it to the door, and pull it open. I look up meeting the eyes of my best friend.
