Alex Frost

Alex's pov
  Beacon Hills.
  After a year of travel we were drawn here. I heard it was because of a nematon. I think I've read it in one of the books that was in the library. Apparently a lot of supernatural shit went down here, just a year ago there were ghost riders! I think we'll fit in just fine.
We got a house, thankfully it had 4 rooms. Although we have to pair up, it could've been worse, way worse. We also already enrolled in Beacon Hills High.
Tomorrow we have school and I haven't been to school in a year. Wow. I had peace for a year. Well we have to fit in.
I was cut from my thoughts, "Stop thinking so loud."
"Sorry Selma. I forgot you can't always control the mind reading thing."
"Alex go to sleep, it's 1 am."
"Right sorry."

The next day
We wake up early and get ready for school. And then we obviously drive to Beacon Hills High. Bitch I got a TESLA.
We arrived to school and went their separate ways, we did have different schedules. Science was first for me. I walk into the classroom.
The teacher comes up to me. "And who might you be?"
"My name is Alex. Alex Frost. I'm new," I answer.
"Okay Alex, why don't you take a seat."
Me, being the person I am, sat next to a kid that was all alone.
The teacher spoke again. "Since you decided to sit next to Liam, you too will work together." She turns to the rest of the class. "Turns out I won't have to give everyone a zero."
"Hi," I held out my hand to shake.
"I'm Liam Dunbar." He shook my hand.
I rest my chin on my hand and look up at him. "Why is everyone afraid of you?"
He looked shocked by that question. "They aren't afraid of me."
"Yes they are, the way they look at you, you can almost smell their fear, so what did you do?" I grin. "Did you kill someone?"
"What?! No." He thinks for a moment. "You ask that like it wouldn't bother you," he eyes me suspiciously.
I shrug. "It wouldn't. I mean I'm pretty crazy so, not so bad."
He sighed. "They think I'm a monster."
"Well that's vague." Breathing deeply, I cross my arms sitting up straighter and lean further onto the desk. "Monster isn't a set in stone thing, Liam. A monster could been like Frankenstein's monster or it could be Frankenstein himself, the real monster." He looks at me in awe. I look straight ahead. "My biological mother was a monster. She kill so many innocent people. Some of those people may have called me a monster because I am her daughter."
"Why are you being so open to me?"
I look back at him. "I'm not, I've barely scratched the tip of the iceberg but," I shift in my seat, "would you like to tell me why they think your a monster?"
"Not really," he scoffs.
"Alex! Liam! Pay attention," the teacher scolded us.
"You can tell me another time."
Class ends and Liam along with two boys behind us, who I think are named Corey and Mason, leave quickly. I decide to follow them and their scent.
Corey and Liam disappear but Mason is walking weirdly. I bump into Dmitry.
Walking with me he asks, "Alex what's going on?"
"That kid is acting weird. And two other kids disappeared."
"You know you can look with your supernatural eyes, I can see you and Phoebe when you two disappear."
"That's because we're mermaids, mermaids or merman wouldn't be somewhere so far away from the ocean."
He rolls his eyes. "Stop being so stubborn and look."
And I did. I saw Liam and Corey hiding behind Mason. I quickly change my eyes back.
"I saw them."
I leave Dmitry in confusion and get closer to them.
"Oh hey Nolan," is what I hear Mason say when I get closer.
Nolan then throws flour on Corey and Liam, making them visible. I make eye contact with Liam, my eyes wide, but I quickly recover.
A kid named Gabe throws Liam into a classroom. I follow. I see Dmitry and Kristen here as well.
"What are you trying to hide Liam," Gabe pushes him against the chalkboard, "your eyes?"
I see Dmitry try to intervene but I stop him. "Wait."
"Open your eyes," Gabe demands.
Liam complies, showing off blue ones.
Nolan and Gabe began to bet him up. At this point Liam is kneeling on the floor.
Mason turns to the teacher, lacrosse players holding him back. "Do something?" She doesn't.
Gabe knees him in the face. They keep beating him. I can't take it anymore I push Gabe off of him, Kristen and Dmitry helping Liam. "I think that's enough."
"He's a monster," Gabe counters.
"My mother was a monster, this kid is nothing close to that."
Now Coach Finstock enters the room clearing everybody except for me, Kristen, Dmitry, Mason, Corey, and Liam out.
Kristen and Dmitry back away from Liam letting Mason and Corey bring him up to his feet.
"I can't believe you did that," Mason says baffled.
"Clark Kent, right?" Liam responds panting.
Mason nods. "Yea, Clark Kent."
They turn to us.
"Why did you help me?" Liam questions.
     Kristen answers for us. Showing her white eye and black eye, she says, "We gotta stick together right?"
    Corey backs up. "You knew?"
    This time I speak. "Well I met you guys first and I could smell something else-" I was cut off by Selma, Joseph, Phoebe, and Andruw entering the classroom.
     "Are all of you okay? I could feel pain and worry a mile away," Selma asks worriedly, looking us up and down.
     Liam begins to heal and can now stand on his own. "Feel pain and worry not smell?"
     "Well we aren't normal beings. I'm immortal and I was reincarnated. Three years ago, men who wanted my power attacked me in class. The stabbed me, slashed my throat," I wrapped a hand around my neck, "and tore my heart out of my chest. If you listen you can hear that I don't have a heartbeat."
      He listens for a moment and then stares eyes wide. "How?"
      "Like I said I'm immortal. The men thought that the ritual was a power transfer, it wasn't. It was a completion spell for the reincarnation of an immortal. I didn't remember anything from before my reincarnation, though I am beginning to remember some things. These six were there and had a gene that I activated. They kinda became my pack. There powers are based on elements. Selma," I point to her, "is mind and spirit. Joseph," he raises his hand, "is earth. Dmitry is fire," Dmitry demonstrates his power, his hand lighting on fire and extinguishes just as quickly, "Andruw is electricity," the lights flicker, "Kristen is," she shows her eyes, "light and darkness. And Phoebe is air." She waves.
        "What about you?" Mason asks.
        "Well I'm different. I'm 47,999,999,977 years old." Everyone, even my pack stares at me with wide eyes. "What?" I shrug. "I count."
"Bitch, how the fuck do you count? You were fourteen three years ago," Dmitry points out.
I shrug. "The number just popped into my head and some how I knew it was right."
Corey speaks up. "That still doesn't explain what you are."
"Okay well 50 billion years ago it was just my mother, first and only being. Right?" The three of them nod. "Okay so the power that she had was too much, because she was everything, so she create two daughters, me and my sister Kayla. She had split her power, leaving her with only the power of fear. To control it, to cause it. It sent her down a dark path. Meanwhile me and my sister we similar to the earthly yin and yang. I am destruction, death, darkness, cold, ice, water, time, fate, patience, the moon, night, war etc. And she is the opposite. It's what keeps balance. My mother wanted to tip the scales in my favor, to cause war, death, and destruction. It fed into her power, made her stronger. The more fear there was-"
Mason cut me off. "The more power she had."
I pointed to him. "Exactly. So me and my sister trapped her. Fast forward to the past year, she wasn't in a prison anymore, she hadn't been for a while. We had added someone into our pack, a mortal."
"Aren't all of you mortal, except for Alex?" Liam asked.
"Yea but we are kinda immortal. The only thing that can kill us is Alex," Phoebe answers.
I continue. "So continuing with the story, we had added someone mortal to our pack, Connor." My pack and me look at the floor remembering Connor. "He was funny and sweet," I look back up at the trio, "I-we all loved him. My mother took notice of this and killed him. He wasn't supposed to die, I felt it. I know when someone is supposed to die, but since my mother is older than me, I have no control over who she kills. I then found a way to kill her and I did." I left out a few gruesome details that they wouldn't wanna hear.
"I'm sorry for your loss, but isn't your mother immortal?" Corey questioned.
"She was before she created me and my sister. In giving away that much power she lost her immortality. She was immortal in the ways of my pack," I gesture to them, "but not the way me and my sister are. I had the ability to kill her."
"So fear isn't a thing anymore?" Liam assumed.
"No, it is. I absorbed that power."
"Oh," the three of them say in unison.
"Well I hope you feel better, Liam and we should get going." I turn to my pack behind me. "Let's go." The follow me and we go home.
