Book 1: Girls Just Wanna Play Gaims (Scott McCall)

F I V E

*Aiden's POV*

We were all in an empty classroom trying to figure out what to do. Whoever this is, has set our plan back. We were supposed to report information back to Deucalion. They aren't gonna say anything with Ethan and I in the room. The only one they seem to trust is Lani. They think that Lani is the good one, and that she doesn't know shit about what we do. Fuck. Deucalion's gonna kick our ass.

"Sooooo" Kira said. I looked at her. "What are we gonna do?" I asked. "Well a direct attack won't work." Scott said. "And why not?" I asked.

"We don't even know where this guy is. Or if it's even a guy. The person could be a female using a voice contortion device for all we know." Scott said.

"I agree. We don't know anything about this person, but they know all of us. Whoever it is called us 'gifted' " Lydia said.

"Not to mention the last time we tried a direct attack, Key got electrocuted." Stiles said.

"And the shit hurt like a bitch" Kehlani added on.

"How about we call this person 'Ghost' for now" Stiles said, and we all nodded in agreement.

"Okay so Ghost knows about us. Now, do any of us have any enemies? Anyone that would want to get revenge on you?" Kira asked.

"No" Lydia said. "Theo Raeken" Kira said. "Who?" I asked. "A guy. I sent him underground with his dead sister." She said. "Um Theo could potentially be after me, too" KT said. "Why?" Ethan asked.

"Who do you think turned him over to the Dread Doctors?" she asked. "Speaking of, there's one Dread Doctor left. Maybe he thinks he has unfinished business." Scott said.

"Ethan and I have many enemies. Sooo .." I trailed off and Ethan nodded in agreement. "Perfect" Stiles said sarcastically. I watched as Lani walked over to Scott and he wrapped his arm around her waist. Then looked at me and smirked.

I growled, causing everyone to look at me questioningly. "Nothing" I said as I went to go sit in a chair. "Kate and Peter for me. And potentially Theo" Scott said. "Peter Hale?" Kehlani asked, as I looked over to her with wide eyes. I seen Stiles look at me suspiciously out the corner of my eye. Fuck.

"You know him?" Lydia asked. "I've heard stories." she said as she shrugged. If this group found out we were working with Peter, it's most definitely over with.

"Okay. So Theo. Kate. Peter. A Dread Doctor?" Stiles questioned, and Scott nodded. "And many others" Stiles said sarcastically, motioning to Ethan and I. We looked at each other before giving him a sarcastic thumbs up, making KT giggle.

I smiled at her and winked, making Scott tighten his grip on her. "Ohmygod" I murmured. "What?" Lydia asked. I shook my head. "It's nothing." I said. Ethan gave me a look. Well, if they keep going, I'm going to HAVE to say something. It'll get me and Ethan out of the room, and plus I can't stand to look at these two be all googly-eyes with each other.

*KT's POV*
I leaned in closer to Scott, trying to get a reaction out of Aiden. Him and Ethan need to leave so that I can get some information out of this group.

The group was silent, everyone was thinking. I looked up at Scott, staring at him. After a moment, he looked down at me and smiled. Look at that adorable, crooked smile. Woahhh Kehlani, get a hold of yourself. I shook my head as he smiled at me. "I have that effect on people" he said as he winked at me.

"Could you guys .. oh I don't know, NOT." Aiden said as he stood up from his seat. "Aiden" Ethan warned. "No, Ethan. Key knows how I feel about her and then a couple of hours with this loser and all of a sudden they're making googly-eyes at each other!" Aiden exclaimed, getting close to Scott and I with every word until he was looking Scott directly in the face.

Scott pushed me behind him and cracked his neck. "You got a problem?" he asked Aiden as his claws came out. I looked between the two, trying to decide what to do.

"Woah Aiden" Stiles said, walking up to the alpha twin, pushing him back a little. Aiden grabbed Stiles by his arm and pushed him away, Stiles crashing into a stack of chairs before falling.

"Noted" he said on the floor, groaning. "Aiden stop, that's wasn't cool" I said. Aiden flipped me off in the same time that Scott yelled, "Don't touch my bestfriend!" while punching Aiden, sending him across the floor. My eyes widened in surprise. Aiden jumped up and sped over to Scott in the same time I jumped in front of him saying "Woah guys you need to—" I got cut off by Aiden jamming and twisting his claws into my stomach.

I let out a weak scream as Aiden took his claws out, realizing it was me and not Scott, causing me to drop to the floor. I looked up at him, my eyes light purple.

Aiden looked at me nervously as I stood up, my wound closing. "Now Kehlani" Ethan started, as I flung my hand up, Ethan crashing into the other stack of chairs in the room. "Okay cool" he said, rubbing his head as he stood up. I lifted my hand up, Aiden rising up to, choking. "I said to stop" I said.

"I-i'm s-s-sorry" he choked out, his hands around his neck, trying to get some relief. I dropped my hand and he dropped to the ground, gasping for breath. "You and your brother. You'll stand watch over the people in the cafeteria. Go." I said as the door to classroom swung open. Aiden looked at me before him and Ethan walked out.

I turned to look at everyone else. They looked amazed. "I didn't know you could do that" Scott said walking up to me. "Yeah .. " I trailed off. "You okay?" he asked me. I nodded and sent him a smile. "I'm fine" I said.

An annoyed look appeared on my face as I turned to Kira. "Can I help you?" I asked as I turned to her. Everyone looked from me to her. "What? No? No! What do you mean?" she asked me nervously.

"You've been staring at me. A lot. Do you like me or something? Or is it Scott that you like?" I asked her. "No one. I like no one. I mean, I used to like Scott. I mean, I don't anymore. We had something. But I guess it's nothing now, because you're— um nevermind" she said. I raised my eyebrow at her then looked at Scott.

"Okay, anyways—" I was cut off by the intercom turning on. "I wonder who I'll kill next" Ghost said. Then the intercom cut off. We all looked at each other before racing back to the cafeteria. As we got closer, I could hear screams and crying, which pushed us to run faster.

I was the first one through the doors. I saw an empty cafeteria, minus 4 hooded figures, fighting with Ethan and Aiden. I ran to join the fight. I took one of them off Ethan.

The hooded figure swung at me and I ducked, kicking it in the stomach. It stumbled back a little before swinging its claws at me. Claws? Then we started fighting head up. Punches and kicks were flying. Then I smelled its scent. I stopped completely. "Theo?" I asked as the figure rammed some blade into my stomach, causing me an excruciating amount of pain. I dropped to my knees letting out a loud scream.

"I'm sorry Key" the contorted voice came out as it disappeared in a puff of black smoke. I tried to pull the blade out, but it hurt too much to do so. My vision was blurring in and out as I felt someone pick me up. "Stay with me!" I heard the muffled voice exclaim.
