The Alpha Omega.

Rescue.....

"Boss, it's 22:00."
Jake's voice comes from outside the door.

I look down at my watch and confirm, before cutting the water off.
"I know, just make sure you're ready."
I say and open the door.

"Boss, I have a concern."
Jake says as he backs up.

"You're worried Serena won't be able to pull the trigger, or that she will and it'll change her."
I say as I check my pistols, before making sure the KaBar is in place.

"Yeah...... That's actually it."
He says and looks over at me.

"She will and it will."
I say and look over at him.

"She doesn't need to be changed."
Jake says and leans against the wall.

"Nobody wants this at all, but she has to change.
If she wants to survive, then she has to change."
I say and look into his eyes.
"Jake, I gotta tell you something that happened."

"Yeah?"
He asks and looks at me.

"Do you think there's such a thing as a giver?
Like, they can give some of their powers away."
I lean my head back as I ask.

"I.. I don't know, why?"
He asks and looks at me confused.

"I think I gave Serena some of my powers, or at least I gave her the essence."
I look back at him.

"Why do you think this?"
He asks and checks his pistol.

"She got shot, if you remember?"
I ask and look at the ground.

"Yeah, her 'sister' shot her."
He says and checks the clip.

"Well, I healed that portion of her stomach.
Yesterday she got stabbed, literally took a knife to the stomach...."
I say and look at Jake.
"It broke in half."

"What do you mean it broke in half?"
He asks confused and looks at me.

"I mean, the guy stabbed her in the stomach.
I watched as the blade broke in half."
I say and look back.

"Oh shit."
He says and leans his head back.

"Yeah, I don't know if it was a fluke or what, but the blade literally broke."
I say and look forward.

"I don't know what it is, but there's something about that girl."
Jake says and looks over at me.

"What do you mean?"
I ask a little confused.

"I can't really explain it..."
He says and looks away.

"Try to."
I say and look around, making sure we're alone.

"She has power inside her....
I just don't think she's ready to let it go."
He says as a group of people enter the hallway and heads toward us.

"Let's go."
I say and take off in the opposite direction.

Jake walks beside me and waits for me to respond.

"So, I'm not going crazy and you've felt it too?"
I ask and look over.

"Yeah..... It's odd.... I can almost feel the power building up inside of her."
He says and walks with me.

"I'll watch her."
I say and look ahead.
"Now, go get ready for tonight."
I say and keep walking.

"Yes sir."
Jake says and keeps walking.

I stop and turn around, before walking past the group and heading towards the yard.
"Alpha."
I whisper and whistle, as I walk out the door.
