A Shifter Among Wolves

Chapter 16

---Nick's POV---

Paige's idea was great! After we had agreed on the plan, we made some decisions about when and where we would strike. Obviously, it would mostly take place in the canteen, when every student gets there at lunch. I drove us to the stores, where we had split up and each got a stock of our supplies.

The next morning Tyler and I left for the cooking classes. We had a double block today, so we would be busy until lunch. "See you at the canteen guys!" Paige shouted while she looped arms with Emilie. They both had art class right now.

I couldn't help but grin all the time. I made sure that my expression was even when Tyler was looking at me though, I didn't want him to suspect anything. While we were cooking, I made sure that I was the one standing closest to the door. After all, I had to lure Tyler back to the canteen.

Twenty minutes left. The teacher walked past, examining my work curiously before she moved on. Rolling my eyes I glanced back at the clock after a while. Five minutes left. Right at that moment I received a message from both Emilie and Paige.

'The door is booby-trapped and ready for Tyler.... Poor guy.

See you soon and make sure to piss him off! =p'

-Emilie.

I smiled at the message. We knew that Tyler would want a quick and silent escape. Since the front doors would be teaming with students, we made sure that his other exits, the escape doors towards the forest, were booby-trapped. I quickly went to the other message.

'We're ready and the pack is present.

Let the games begin!

See you soon Bro'

-Paige-'

I smirked while I put my cellphone away. Slowly I opened my bag and I slid out the paint bucket that I had previously filled with oil and detergent. I nodded my head at one of the human kids who was in the plot, making him open the door. And then I tipped it over Tyler's head, making sure that most of his body was covered with it.

"Payback's a bitch Tyler." I laughed loudly, ignoring the teacher and ran straight towards the doors with Tyler hot on my heels. The bell rang just as we passed the doors and I smiled. Right on time.

We made it quickly to our table, where Tyler jumped me. He growled slightly, but he appreciated the comeback. Everyone laughed when Tyler punched me before he sat down in the chair, rubbing his hands over his clothes. "I'll get you later for this." He grumbled under his breath.

I walked around the table and sat on my spot, allowing myself a view of Paige and Emilie. Emilie walked to the table and started a conversation with Tyler, who was unaware that Paige was stalking from behind him, holding a very large plastic box in her hands. And then she threw the contents over him.

The whole table roared into laughter, followed by nearby tables when we spotted Tyler, who was completely covered in glitters, sparkly stars and hearts and most of all, glittering feathers. Jack was slamming his hand on the table, his face hidden below his arm while the triplets were high-fiving Paige. And of course, Tyler flushed bright red when he noticed that the human students caught sight of him.

While Tyler pushed his way through the laughing and pointing students towards the doors, I saw Paige leaning towards Emilie. "Did you get the paint?" she whispered so that Tyler wouldn't hear anything. Emilie grinned and nodded her head before we all turned around at the loud cursing that erupted when Tyler opened the escape doors.
