Shadow Hunters

I thought this day couldn't get worse, but of course I couldn't be anymore wrong. And the fact that a kid that I thought was just some random civilian was more then I ever thought and left the biggest impact. For the better or worse I couldn't really be sure, but I prefer to meet my future best friends by choice.

Alex's POV:

OK, so my name is Alex, or Ali, I'm 15 and a 5'7 lite brunette, I can pass for a normal young tomboyish type teenage girl. Plot twist I'm actually a spy, well shadow hunter but the people here on Earth prefer spy. I have no clue why they just do, I originate from the planet Gallifrey, but I was born and had grown up here.

Anyways, so I live on my own, my height makes me appear old enough to do so. So I get by. I've been running my whole life, it's not a great way to live but hey, I've got few thousand years left on my plate so I'm good. I'm currently living in a small town in California, its a beautiful town, a plus  my last place was in Denver and I'm not that big of a fan of cold so this is wonderful. The only thing I hate about this much running is that I can't save anything. But this time is different, it has to be.

Unfortunately the things I run from are extremely smart, but luckily I'm smarter.

While I was unpacking my boxes that were so "generously" given to me. By that I mean the government supplies me with meaningless junk that is so called "homely and modern, no one will suspect anything different". I've heard the same speech, I can recite it by heart. But that's not important,

So while I'm almost completed with this unpacking job, A rock soars threw my only decent window "really? Are you kidding m-" and then I remembered. "Run, just run faster then ever, and don't forget the bag again!" I thought to my self while i fled out the beautiful house to save my self from sudden war against my enemies. About a mile down my road and another half through the woods, I finally found a street not marked on the map of real important places to be and slowed down a bit, they were fast but I'm ten times their speed, when bam! I run into this guy just strolling around clueless to the fact a person was sprinting his way, but then again I wasn't aware of his presences either.

"Watch out man! I'm not a body bag that you can just-" was all he could say before I had a knife to his throat, and a 'shut up or I'll slice your neck open' look upon my face "quiet kid now and you can keep your life." I whispered in a combination of harshness and calm. "Woah, woah there, could you get off me, your cute and all...But I'd feel better with that thing away from my throat." He slowly moved up his arm to remove the knife.

"I wouldn't touch that if I were you." I answered, quickly putting it back into my boot,jumped up and started to walk away. "You new? Never seen yo- wait!" He yelled while I walked off, then started following me. "What is this dude's problem? Is he trying to get us both killed and all of humanity along with us?!" I thought to my self.

"What's your name, and would you at least slow down I'm practically running to catch up to you!" He yelled louder. I stopped in my tracks silently cussing and thinking of twenty different ways I could make his death look like a fatal accident, though I shoved them back into my head and gave him a chance.

"What do you want exactly? I just prevented your death by allowing you to live, my name is not important and yes i am new" I calmly said. "Well I'm Derek Nelly, and yea your name's important to me" the smile on his face was sly, with a bit of amusement shining through his eyes. "I'm Alex, and if you get me killed i won't be happy" I said a little agitated because this...Derek was not going to let me leave....But something about him made me want to stay, so I paused the time a bit, a little trick i learned, here's my chance to escape but my feet refused to move the opposite direction, so I touched his shoulder.
