        After the actions that took place last night it makes riding to the warehouse all the more hard. He and I were so close, I wanted to kiss him so bad. In away I can almost picture and feel what it would have been like. Thinking about it just gives me butterflies.

       The door lets out its painfully normal squeal as I step inside. "Morning Sharon" I say as I walk past her workshop. She is insanely smart and good with technology. Apparently she went to school for it and was caught stealing which got her kicked out. She just nods as I continue on my way. Well that is until someone crashes into my shoulder. Am I like a magnet for people to crash into or what?

       "Sorry" is all she manages to say when I turn back to look at her. She had caramel cooler skin and long black hair. Who is this mysterious girl? Why is she here? She walks out of the warehouse as I look for Chance. "Who's the snob" I ask once I find him. "Some girl, I guess she used to be one of Vulture's most important people." "Wow, really? Is she like going to help us or something?"

       "Supposedly yeah, she and Lucas talked in private. I'll get the rundown soon. For now go work with Kade, he could use your help on the hand-to- hand combat stuff" says Chance. I step on to the mat as I watch him aggressively punch the bag. "Don't hesitate before you swing" I say as he watches me demonstrate.

       "Oh hey Sage." Kade is the pup of the group, he is only 17. He is doing this to provide for his younger brothers and sister. His dad left after his sister was born, while his mom took up drinking and heroine.

       Everyone of us has a son story on how we got here, but none make me feel more upset then his. He is just a kid, he is very smart and could have a future. The only one of us who hasn't said anything about a sob story is Koda. He is just an ass who does it for cash. What can I say, he is just an ass in general.

        Kade and I train together for several more hours since the strange girl has left. Most of the pack have left for the night but a few of us remained. Chance never came out of Lucas's office after he was called in. I decided just to go home since it was late enough. As I walked out side I heard the gravel crunch beneath my feet and the sound of hidden crickets chirping. This weird smell fills my nose. The scent seems to be coming from my bike.

       God I wish I was wrong, someone not only cut my fuel line but also my break lines. Great just great, looks like I'm taking the train home. I look up at the stars and sigh, I could just turn into my wolf and run home. That does seem a little too risky though. Train it is, so I plug my headphones in and walk to the station.

~Time skip~

       My body sways with the train as it stops and goes. At this rate I will be home by the time I am 50. These hard vibrations travel through my body as myself and the other passengers look back at the other cars. Black smoke hides what is going on around it. The sounds of people's screams fill my ears as I feel more vibrations. This time coming from the front of the train.

      Orange flames lick the sky in front of us. The tracks have been blown, as if my night couldn't get any worse. There is no way out of this one. Suddenly I see a flash of red and blue. People seem to be disappearing. Then I spot this elderly woman, she had blood dripping down her forehead. I walk towards her but feel a hand on my wrist.

     "This train is going to crash, I need to get you off" he says. "Help her! Help her first, she is hurt!" Spider-Man nods and runs to her. He gets her out safely as I watch the swiftly speeding train approach the broken tracks. The train seems to hit a bump or something because before I know it I'm on the cold floor.

       Gloved hands find my bare skin as they help me up. The place where they are is tingling. "I believe this is your stop" he says as I cling to him for dear life. We sing towards the now gathers crowd. "You just can't stay away, can you" I say with a chuckle. I hear a slight laugh escape his lips. "Try to stay out of trouble okay" he says as he lowers me. I can tell Peter is smiling under that mask. "No promises" with that he is gone.

       I look around the crowd seeing people shouting, crying, helping. One shout in particular catches my attention. "Sage! Sage" I hear Peter shout. "Peter" I shout back as he fights through the crowd of people. I am wrapped in his warm embrace once he manages to get through.

      "I saw everything that happened. Are you okay?!" He pulls away from me and cups my face waiting for a reply. The sight of worry fills his eyes. "I'm fine Peter" I say hugging him again. His grip tightens on me as he speaks just above a whisper. "Thank god you're safe." Hearing these words makes me cling to him tighter as the sounds from the crowd fade away.
