3. The Followers
When I left for school I noticed that the car that stayed a ways back had been following me since I first started school here in Sitka. I shook my head wondering if I was actually being paranoid. I got to school and parked by my brothers truck and got out and headed for my locker to put my books up and getting the books I needed out. I walked into my biology class and Mr. Brothers announced "Miss Wolf your late."
"Sorry. It won't happen again." I muttered.
"Try to keep that promise." He said and turned to finish writing the question of the day on the board. I read the question.
'What is the theory of Continintal Drift?'
That is so easy. So I wrote the answer down, and even defined some of my words for my explaination. The teacher would check to make sure we did the questions and that they were right every friday. Each question counted as 20 points a question a hundred points a week.
When I got to english Alesha asked "How are you doing on your first couple of days so far?"
"Great, It's not as bad as I thought it would be. No offense."
"None taken. Hey I'm going to Port Alexander If you want to ride with me. I'm going to pick out a couple of dresses for dances between now and prom. To go ahead and get it out of the way."
"Ahh. Sure That's a good idea. I might even buy me some dresses to, and shop a little while I'm there." I replied excitedly. "When are you leaving?"
"After school today. I can follow you home so you can drop your car off if you want." Alesha offered.
"Thanks."
We didn't have anymore time to talk during english so I told her if she wanted she could sit with the family and me at lunch if she wanted to. Alesha said she would see me at lunch so I walked on to Italian. Italian was boring considering I could already speak it so I just tuned out the teacher and thought of the unexpected trip to Port Alexander. I was going to have to go to a book store and buy a book on herbs since my other one seemed to have gotten lost. I would also need a dress if I decided to go to the dance that was still a couple of weeks away.
Then as if on it's on violation my mind wandered to Scotty. He was so mysterious and acted like he loathed me. Shit just got real yo. New to school and already have a hater. The final bell finally decided to ring. So I meet up with Alesha by my locker so she could follow me home.
On the ride to Port Alexander I kept thinking of the car that I thought was following me this morning. I decided to let my dad know when I got home. Alesha and I arrived an hour later at a small beautiful botique.
Alesha asked "So Do you like anyone yet?" Alesha picked up 2 beautiful dresses. We headed to the dressing rooms since I had picked 2 up also.
"Well there is this guy that seems like he hates me that I think is cute but like I said I think he hates me." I said pulling on the green emerald dress. I walked out forAlesha to give critique.
"Oh my gosh that dress looks so lovely on you. Most definatly a keeper." Alesha enthused.
"Well I definatly think the pink dress does do you justice Alesha it looks so lovely on you. Go try the deep purple dress on." I took the emerald dress off to try on the yellow colored dress. While Alesha was trying on the purple. Amazingly enough we come out of the dressing rooms at the exact same time.
"Wow Marissa that yellow dress looks lovely on you. It really brings out your beauty. Im thinking that would be the perfect one for spring, and the green for the winter formal. We only need about 2 more a piece and we are set on our dresses." I looked up and noticed a shadow moving hurriedly away. I was starting to get nervous now we had already tried on a couple and had found 2 dresses a piece.
"Well I think the pink one should be the Valintine dance, and the purple the Winter formal. We need to find you a Spring, and a Prom dress. I still need a Valintines and a Prom. Lets go." I enthused even though my bad feeling has come back. I feel like I am being examined.
We finally found about 4 more to try on. We ended up buying 8 dresses for the rest of the year for the both of us so 4 a piece. I bought emerald green for Winter formal, red for Valintines, yellow for Spring, and purple for prom. Alesha bought purple for Winter formal, pink for Valintines, white for Spring, and black for Prom. All in all a good shopping expedition.
Now that it was getting late we were headed back to the car when someone grabbed my arm and spun me around. Shocked I gasped and looked up to see a man all in black. Alesha had left the shop before me to take her dresses on to the car. Which left me all alone with this weird man dressed in black from head to toe. Even had a ski mask, and we all know if someone is dressed like that then they are either very cold are they are up to something no good. Does any one want to guess which one my mystery man was up to?
Surprise POV
The man noticing he had the right girl laughed out loud and brought her closer to him. The witches magic would not work on him, his tattoo on his shoulder made sure of that. It also kept anyone that was within so many feet of him from being scried or located by magic.
"Well looks like I caught myself a little bitchy witchy. Oh how cute are you going to cry?" The man looked at the girl and laughed again. She looked so scared it was pathetic. Did she not know that there was men like me that hunted these abomintations like her to rid them off the face of the earth?
The man turned around and started dragging the girl behind him. He would have to take her to Darius his leader to be tried and then punished.
The man had gotten several hundered yards away when he is tackled to the ground by a solid white wolf with green eyes. The force of the impact made him lose his grip on the girl. The man looked up and seen the girl running away. Running the way he came, running to the car that held what he assumed was the human girl. He did not get a good read on the other girl.
Standing up the man made to run only to be tackled again to the ground. "Pup it does not matter if you kill me there will always be 2 more to take my place. There is no hiding for the girls kind, nor yours, or any other known species. We will not give up until all the earth is rid of all of you vermin." Before the man could say no more the wolf tore out the mans throat. The man slowly died, but before he could the wolf shifted and spoke to him.
"That may be, but you are one less we have to worry about, and you will not be able to tell your leader or anyone else about the girl or even me. For you are taking your last breaths as we speak." As soon as the rescuer finished talking the man he attacked had died. He pulled out the mans wallet and read.

What do you think Nathan was talking about when he said he was not sure the other girl was human or not. Could Alesha be something else????
