We ran through the deserted streets of Manhattan through the night. Me and my sister, we're being pursued by them, the hunters. Around the corner I feel an arrow hit and enter my right leg and stop leaning against the wall of pain.

- John, hurry! We have to go. Scarlet said desperately.

Leaning against the wall, we peered and saw a man bearing a beast looking toward us, but he certainly could not see us. I look at Scarlet silently and she can understand me by the look. We prepare to leave the hiding place and attack the hunter. Before we could attack him, we heard him screaming and falling to the ground. We came out of hiding and saw a young man, apparently young with short, dark hair. He wore a black leather jacket and jeans, wearing a white shirt underneath and a brown boot. But what impressed us was his red eyes. He starts to walk towards us and then I shout,

- Do not come near!

- Who are you? Scarlett asked.

Standing in the place where he stood, he made a gesture with his hands to calm us down.

"I will not hurt them." - He says. - My name is Scott. Scott Mccall. And I'm just like you, I'm a werewolf.


John

- How do you know what we are? I ask confused.
- I can feel it, I'm the alpha here! - He responds smiling. "And you must come with me!" Many of Monroe's hunters will be here in minutes, you are in danger. And we will help them!
- We? Scarlett asked.
Suddenly we saw a light blue Jeep turning the previous corner and approaching at high speed, coming toward us. He stops before he passes over the man who hunted us, lying and unconscious on the floor.
"Are you guys going to talk or are you going to get in the jeep?" - asked the boy who was behind the wheel, opening the door of the jeep. He appeared to be new too, and had a tuft. He seemed to be wearing a plaid jacket, but he could not be certain of the door. Beside her was a pretty girl, she was red and her hair was red and straight. Her lipstick was red and strong, settling into her face. She wore a gray cardigan over a green dress, which was tied by a red bow at the waist. She wore red boots, but no more red than her lipstick. She looked at us and waved.
Again in the previous corner, we saw a Black pickup truck coming quickly toward us.
Come in soon! Shouted the redheaded girl.
We jumped into the jeep quickly and stood in the backseat.
- I'll be right behind you. Now go! Scott shouted.
The boy turned the key and started the jeep, and then, turning back, he drove to the opposite side of the truck. Looking back we watched and we saw Scott struggling with the hunters coming down from the truck, all armed.
"Do not worry, he'll be fine. - Said the girl.
- She's right, Scott does! - Said the boy.
"What do you call each other anyway?" Scarlett asked.
"You can call me Stiles, believe me, you would not want to know my name!" And this is my girlfriend, Lydia. - Answered the Boy putting his hand on the girl's shoulder at his side.
- And you, what are their names? Lydia asked.
"My name is John and this is my twin sister, Scarlett. - I answered.
"And you two are werewolves?" Stiles asked.
- Yes we are. Scarlett answered.
"Do not worry, we Scott and the rest of the pack will help them. And it will hurt ... - Lydia said taking the arrow off my leg as I scream in pain.
- Gang? What do you mean, have more people with you? I asked.
"Yes, Scott has his pack and we're part of it." - Lydia said. - And now you too!
- Wait, what do you mean? Scarlett asked.
"No, we're just helping them. This does not mean that they are part of the pack. - Stiles said. "We do not even know them straight yet.
- That's Scott's decision! Do not start Stiles. Lydia slapped Stiles on the head. "It's just two frightened teens needing help, like us in our day.
Stiles looked at her and then looked at us again, and was quiet. We were heading towards a hotel, where Stiles was already stopping with his jeep. We stopped in front of a seemingly old and abandoned but extremely beautiful hotel. It was huge and dark, and stood on a deserted street where there were only a few posts illuminating it. Upstairs, apparently on one of the top floors you could see a window where the light was on.
"Is this where you live?" I asked.
- Almost that. This is where we meet and hide when we need it. - As Lydia exited the jeep, she unlocked the door to leave.
We got out of the jeep and stood behind Lydia and Stiles. The moon was full in the sky, with a few clouds covering some parts, but still it was possible to see the stars.
- Imagine this whole hotel as your house now ok. - Stiles said.
"Is this where we'll live from now on?" Scarlett asked.
"No, we'll leave you with Monroe." Who knows, she'll like you both and give up hunting! - Said Stiles walking towards the door of the hotel. - I'm just kidding. Yes, this is where they will stay until we defeat Monroe and his army as hunters! - He smiled.
As soon as Stiles opens the door, he enters and lifts a lever, which lights up the whole hotel. Before we get in, the same Black pickup truck is approaching and we are preparing to defend ourselves. The truck stops in front of us, and Scott comes out of it. Smiling, he says:
- Looks like I was a little late!
"Actually, you're well on time." - Lydia said.
- See, I said he would give it! Stiles joked.
"Are you all right?" Scott asked, putting his hand on Scarlett's shoulder.
- Yes we are! Scarlett smiled.
- Hey, get away from him. - said a blond girl who was descending the stairs that were in front of us. She wore a plaid red jacket over ablack shirt, a pair of jeans and short shorts, and a completed brown boot. - Who are they? She asked, pointing her finger at Scarlett and me.
"Malia, these are John and Scarlett. We found them running away from the monroe hunters. They are werewolves too. Scott said taking his hand from Scarlett's shoulder. "That's why we did not have time to complete our mission ..."
"What mission?" - I ask.
"This is none of your new business, at the moment. Malia said, climbing the stairs.
- Follow us. - Scott said heading for the stairs.
As we followed, Stiles and Lydia were behind us. We went up several and several stories. At the end of the stairs there was a common door, and upon opening it, Malia said:
- Well, make yourself at home!
When we entered, we saw that it was the apartment with the lights on. There were three more people inside. One seemed younger than us, the other with crossed arms had short beards and the other one next to him was blond and appeared to be of our age and had green eyes.
"Just like you and me, they're all werewolves." - Scott said. "Derek, Liam, and Alec, these are John and Scarlett, the new members of the Pack.
"I was just like you and Scott picked me up a few months ago. - Alec said.
We were silent for a while until Derek broke the silence.
"Hey Scott, are not you going to rescue him?"
Then there was the noise of cars down the street. There were three cars standing in front of the hotel where we were staying.
- We have to go soon! - Liam said.
"Apparently there was a tracker in the truck that you picked up on Scott, or they followed you. Stiles said looking out the window.
"Well, we'll do it that way then. Scott, Liam, Derek and Malia. You go with my car! - Lydia said. - Alec, John and Scarlett, you stay here!
"It will not be safe, they'll be in danger here." - Derek said. "Stiles, you and Lydia get them out of here and distract them with the Jeep.
- Oh really? So they will be even more in danger. Stiles asks. "They go with you." They'll be safer with you four.
"All right, but remember: everyone is very careful, especially you John and Scarlett. - Scott said. "Now we're going to rescue an old friend.
