Night Of The Hunter // TeenWolf

No Turning Back

Alice:

I slam my fist down on the wooden table. "You should have let me kill him." I fume. This is exactly what I wanted to avoid by just killing him instead of this bull shit plan to get close to him.

"But no, you had to have the brilliant idea to make me get close to him instead." I angrily seethe, placing my palms on the table top. Gerard looks at me with a blank expression on his face.

Today is the full moon, and my mom showed me the big alpha bite on her shoulder this morning, needless to say I took the day off from work lying that I felt sick today.

I place my fingers on my temple and massage my forehead. "The plan will work in the end, trust me." He tries to reason with me.

"Yes, but at the cost of my mother." I snap through gritted teeth. How exactly did he think I was going to take this news, happy and giddy like some idiot going on a shopping spree.

"Now is the time to step up to your rightful place in this family." He places a hand on my shoulder. I want to blame him for whats going to happen to my mom, but there's truly only one person to blame.

Crossing my hands across my chest, I look him in the eyes. "Yes, and the first thing we're going to do is get rid of Derek Hale and the rest of his useless pack."

He smiles proudly at me and I stand up straighter. I know that I need to own up to my title now. I need to be a leader to these hunters. But right now I have to go do something I didn't ever want to do anytime soon, say goodbye to my mother.

I walk into Allison's room, since my mom is inside, and sit next to her. Allison is off at some party so my mom wanted to be somewhere where she can be 'close' to her.

For maybe ten minutes or so we sit in silence starring up at the full moon through the window in the room. I can't help but feel like the moon is just staring us right in the eyes and taunting us for what's to come. Clearing my throat I speak up.

"Thanks for teaching me all that I know." I start, my voice steady and unwavering despite the fact that I feel myself slowly breaking inside.

"Thanks for all those times you scared off any annoying boy in high school, or for telling me that being a woman doesn't mean I have to have any limitations." I let out a small laugh, but it sounds too close to a strangled sob for my liking.

"Not to mention all the times that you had to drill it into my thick skull that my sickness does not and should not get in the way of my life." I continue, blinking back the tears. Oh God, I don't think I can do this.

"And you don't even know how thankful I am that you let me take those dance classes, because mom it is a passion of mine that I love." I pause letting out a small shaky breath to calm myself.

It's no use because even for an almost 24 year old brutal, merciless hunter, saying goodbye to your mother is no easy job to do. I'd like to see anyone else be in my position, and come out of it with a simple goodbye and be over it.

"But most importantly thank you for letting me call you mom, and being a great and wonderful mother to me. Because I never in my life felt like I was adopted with you or dad." I finish, a small strained smile on my face. She returns it before pulling me into a hug.

Not hesitating a second I hug back, knowing that this is the last time I'll ever get to hug her. "Mom, I don't think I can do this without you." I quietly start to sob, still clutching onto her.

This is just too much, how am I suppose to go on without the only mother I've ever known in this worl?. How, how the hell am I even suppose to tell Allison? This was something I wanted to avoid for years, to have to sit down and tell her that we lost a parent.
