Masked Assassin

"They are taking too long," I grumbled under my breath as I took my dagger and cut the tip of my hair. I grabbed a rubbish bin and slowly cut my hair, feeling that it was too long. I estimated until it reaches above my butt, I cut off a lot of hair.

You can't blame me. I'm too bored and I find my hair too long.

We have been waiting for more than half an hour already, Chase and the others still hasn't reach Alexa's house yet.

"Hey! Sorry we're late!" I heard Sonia's voice as the door swung open. Sonia walked in with the rest trailing behind her. She scanned everyone in the room and furrowed her eyebrows.

"Where's Chase?"

"Huh?" Silas looked at Sonia, confused.

"He left Subway earlier than us, saying that he'll come here earlier," Sonia was equally confused as Silas.

"He didn't come," One of the vampire boys, Jay, spoke up.

The three vampires, Jay, Scarlett and Tyson are triplets. Another vampire is Silas's first vampire friend, Marc. Kayla and Derrick are mates. Olivia and Oliver, who are witches and warlocks, are siblings. Olivia is older than Oliver by a year. The hunters are Wesley, Ellie and Carson.

"That's weird," Silas and Sonia said in unison.

"I'm starving! Can I at least have my food first?" I heard Klaus exclaim as he pushed Sonia away from the front door and grabbed a plastic bag from her hand.

"For y-" Klaus stopped talking when he was in front of me once he saw Lance with his arm around my shoulder.

"Second?"

"Yeah," I said quietly, understanding what he means.

"I'm so happy for you!" He dropped the plastic bag onto the floor without realising and clapped in glee. Once he realized that he had dropped his Subway, he picked up the bag and muttered," Shit."

'Do you think that's why he didn't come?' Klaus asked in our twin telepathy.

'Who?'

'Chase.'

'I-I don't know,' I stammered.

He didn't question any further and passed me my food. I muttered a thanks and ate hungrily. Sonia, Zavier, Alexa and Klaus gave out the food to everyone and we all ate in silence.

"So it's settled. Patrolling will start next week, you all have a week to get to know each other more," Silas smiled.

"Hey Klaus," I poked my brother's shoulder.

"What?"

"Do you want to meet one of your cousin?"

"Yes! Who is it?" He replied excitedly.

"See that guy over there?" I asked, pointing at Wesley who was across the room," That's your cousin." I shouted rudely,"Hey! Fatass!"

"What do you want, dumbass?" Wesley turned around to my direction and scowled.

"Come here," I gestured some hand signals to him and he walked towards the two of us.

"Really. What do you want?" Wes still had a scowl on his face.

"I want you to meet your long lost cousin, Klaus. He's a werewolf by the way." I pointed at Klaus.

"Long lost cousin? Who is a werewolf boy? Sweet!" Wes said excitedly.

Sometimes I feel bad for Wes. He grew up with girl cousins, no boy cousins from his father's side of the family. His mother didn't have any siblings.

Emphasizing on 'sometimes'.

I moved away silently as they started chatting. I don't want to be a third wheel or something.

"Hey, Alaysieh," Someone caught me in his arms and twirled me around.

I laughed and laid my head on his chest," Lance."

He rested his chin in my head and we just stood there with me in his arms.

"Don't be so clingy," Derrick joked, which earns him a slap on the head from Kayla.

"And you call me mean," Kayla squinted her eyes at him.

---

"See you tomorrow, Lance," I smiled as he walked towards his motorbike.

"See you, Alaysieh," He smiled cheekily and climbed on the motorbike. His motorbike roared to life and he drove off in the direction of the hotel the twelve of them will be staying at.

I closed the door and locked it. I went to my room and took a long shower.

After slipping into a hoodie and a pair of black leggings, I climbed onto the bed and laid on my back.

I closed my eyes and let my fatigue take over. I was about to sleep when I heard a faint whisper," Don't leave me, Alaysieh, please. I love you so much."

I was going to wake up and find out who that was, but I couldn't. I fell asleep immediately.

---

Ahhahahah no one guessed correctly for my age.

I'm younger than you think I am.

Anyways I hope you like this chapter! Who do you think the person who whispered to Alaysieh is?

Vote and comment!

I won't bite.

Or at least I try not to.
