The Other Argent

Chapter 4

I wake up to hear my phone buzzing, waking me from a great sleep.

"What do you want?"  I ask.

"Meet me and the cafe on Sanders Street in 30."  My uncle demands before hanging the phone up.  Well good morning to you too.

I quickly take a shower, brush my hair, do my makeup, and throw on a pair of black leggings with a white v-neck t-shirt and black combat boots.  I slowly walk out of my apartment, but quickly grab my phone and leather jacket on my way out.

I walk into the cafe, seeing my uncle sitting in the back corner, staring at the table.  I walk over to where he is sitting, and he looks up at me, sliding me a piece of paper that was in front of him.  "What is this?"  I ask.

"Read it."  He replies.

"What are these numbers next to the names?"  I asked once I had finished reading what was on the paper.  "That's how much the person is worth."  Chris answers.

"Why are you showing me this?"  I demanded.

"Look, this is a supernatural hit list.  Each name on there, somebody is out to kill.  Six of the names on the list have already been killed.  We think there's more names, and that when we add up all the numbers together, they will add up to 147 million dollars, the same amount of money taken from the Hale vault.  I know you said that you're here for revenge, but if you know Allison, you know that she wouldn't want you killing her friends.  Now, I need some help.  These two people-"  He said pointing to Carrie Hudson and Demarco Montana's name "-were killed last night.  We think by the same person.  Stella, I know this isn't what you came here to do, but we really need your help."  Chris explains.

"Why?  Why do you need me?"  I angrily ask.

"Stella, you're the best hunter that I know.  You know what you're doing.  And right now, I have no idea what I'm doing.  Trust me, I'm not here because I want to be all buddy buddy with Scott and his pack, I'm here to honor the promise I made to Allison, which is keeping her friends safe.  Now, are you in, or are you out?"  Chris finally asks.

"I'll think about it, oh and can you enroll me in Beacon Hills High School, because if I do decide to do this, I need to know what I'm dealing with."  I declared before walking out of the cafe, leaving my smiling uncle behind.

Heard there was a lacrosse game today at the school.  Want to get to know Scott's pack better, go to the game. -Chris

Lovely.  A lacrosse game, at a school that is surrounded by death.  (her outfit is above)  I drive my audi r8 to the school and make my way onto the bleachers.  Maybe it wasn't a bad idea coming to this I think to myself as I pass a guy with no shirt on.  I smile to myself and make my way onto the bleachers.

"Hey Liam think fast!"  The guy I walked by earlier yelled, before chucking a ball at a guy who I'm assuming is Liam.  But, surprisingly, Liam catches the ball.  I'm suddenly becoming more intrigued with Beacon Hills by the minute.  The lacrosse game then starts, thick tension in the air.  The game is really boring, Devenford Prep has the ball most of the time, and they keep scoring on us.  I was looking at some of the players on our team, when I spot Garrett.  That son of a bitch.  

I can't really do anything about it right now though.  A couple minutes later, the game got really boring so I decided to go explore the school that I would probably be going to.  I entire the school, looking at the different lockers and other places when I stop in front of the boys locker room.  I see a passed out medic on the ground.  I walk into the locker room and see the guy I passed earlier on the ground.  He pops his eyes open staring at something behind me.  The person then put something around my neck.  The thermal wire.  I try to claw it off my throat, as my air supply is slowly becoming less and less.

"He said we shouldn't try.  But I've got you.  I've got an Alpha."  Violet brags.  I quickly kick her leg digging my heel into her thigh so that she will let go.  Once she lets go of the wire, I take it off my neck and throw it away from us.  I turn around to face her, she looks scared, fearful.  I kick her in the stomach, causing her to stumble backwards.

"After everything I've done for you."  I punch her.  "After everything I've taught you."  Another punch.  "After everything I've risked for you."  Another punch.  "This is how you repay me?"  I ask.

"How does it feel to know that I won?"  Violet boasts.

"If you won, then how am I still alive?"  I mocked.  "Never cross me, bitch."  I seethed before landing a round house kick to her head, knocking her out.

"Woah."  I hear two boys say from the doorway.

"I think you better call your dad."  The guy with black hair says to the other one.
