Shadows

13. No Longer A Secret

Derek. He had Damon's phone. Oh no. I looked up and saw Shane in the corner of the room. I saw his menacing smile.

"Are you a vampire too?" I asked Derek. I heard him laugh and say, "No hybrid."

"Peachy," I muttered. I heard him laugh again.

"So sweetheart have you missed me?" he asked in a sweet tone.

"Not really," I said to him in a bored tone before asking, "What have you done to Damon?"

"Oh you mean your vampire lover," he said in a distant tone as if he was staring at something or someone.

I growled and said, "Don't you dare hurt him!"

"Or what your slap me," he snapped over the phone.

"You have no idea what you are getting yourself into," I growled into the phone. I heard a scream. A woman's scream. Not just any woman Elena.

"You bastard, you took Elena too?" I yelled in the phone having totally forgotten that Shane was standing close by.

I looked over at Shane who took me in. Looking me head to toe three times. I shook with fury.

I hoped off my bed and reached the stake from under my bed I had more than one. I make them myself, well used too.

I looked up at Shane who widened his stance. He knew about me. What I could do. I saw the evidence in his eyes.

I lunged for him, but he was quick to move out of my way so I fell into the wall making a loud noise.

I turned to see him smirking by m bed. He picked up my phone and said, "Derek, Shadow has returned."

I growled and lunged catching him off guard this time. The phone fell to the floor. I punched him making his head move to the side and I staked him in the heart.

I heard him yell before he died. I looked at him before I looked at the phone. I saw that Derek was still on the phone.

I picked up the phone and said, "Shadow is back and she is coming after you. And when I do get to where you are you will die in a painfully slow way and I will make sure of it."

I heard the line disconnect. I closed my phone and reached into Shane's jacket. His phone and wallet were in there. I pulled out both, and I texted Shane's sister: Hey where is Derek.

Not even seconds later had I received: You forgot already? GD Shane! The old warehouse outside of Mystic Falls!

I got up and took the battery out of his phone. I dragged his body towards my closet where it would stay so Jenna wouldn't freak out.

I returned to my dresser and exchanged my PJ's for my full on full black outfit: Black boots, Black skin tight stretchy jeans, and black shirt that stuck to my body, and to complete the outfit was my leather jacket. I grabbed my keys, but before I left I went to my rug on my wood floors and lifted it to reveal a small door.

I lifted the small door open and took out the medium sized filled duffle bag. I pulled out guns that were filled with vervain wooden bullets, I had vervain grenades, and I had a belt that had multiple uses on it.

Some would say it looked like I was a secret agent, but really I was a vampire assassin. The one secret I hadn't told Elena. I regretted ever finding out about vampires. I had to play dumb around Elena, Stefan and Damon.

I pulled the guns strap over my head and buckled the belt around my waist. I tucked a stake in my boot and rushed toward the door grabbing my bikes keys on the way out.
