Ariana Hale

The rain pelted down on me like tiny sharp knives cutting into my skin. The sleek roads shined from the little lightposts around.

I jumped on a pole that was horizontal, and jumped over a school bus. I landed in a crouched position in front of two teenagers. One was a girl with short blonde hair and the other was Brett.

Both of their eyes glowed yellow in warning. I felt my eyes glow their burning red.

"Hurry up! Let's go!" I yelled. Brett helped the girl up only to get shot in the back with an arrow. He gasped in pain. I looked down the path they came from but didn't see anybody.

I pulled the arrow out of his back. I let him go ahead of me, staying right behind to where I could keep an eye on both of them. I leaned my head to the right as an arrow whizzed past my face.

A man with a crossbow came out of nowhere trying to hit me in the head. I ducked underneath his arm, pushing him into a gate. I ducked again to dodge his throw. He shot an arrow, making my hand fly up to my face catching the arrow. It was enough to distract me. He kicked my stomach making me fall on the ground.

I growled at him, my eyes burning a brighter red. He swung his crossbow down on me. I caught his hand and punched his chest with my other hand. He flew back to the gate, falling face first on the ground.

I ran down the narrow path following Blondie and Brett's trail. I seen them running onto the lacrosse field.

"Wait! No you idiots!" I shouted. But they ignored me. I huffed, running up to them. By the time I caught up to them, we were standing in the middle of the field.

"Hurry, follow me before-" I started but stopped when the field lights started coming on one by one. I squinted, shielding my face from the light. blondie held onto Brett's arms for dear life.

Laser beams started trailing up the field up to us. I pushed the two beta's behind me. I growled loudly as the red beams focused on me.

"Brett... Brett, what's happening?!" blondie cried desperately.

"Close your eyes" he said in a somewhat confident voice.

A arrow started flying towards my chest. I went to catch it but instead a sword of some kind slashed it in half. My snapped to the side to meet Kira's. I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Run!" She yelled at us. The two beta's instantly complied. But I stayed standing where I was.

"You can't stay by yourself!" I shouted at her. Her eyes grew angry at the sight of me and I could understand why. I stole her kinda boyfriend even though she doesn't know that yet.

"A pack sticks together" I said. That seemed to change her mind. I stood beside her, her katana raised to block arrows, my eyes glowing red.

I roared loudly as a signal of a fight. Several arrows flew at us. Kira cut hers in half while I caught most of the ones that came my way. I felt my hands burning probably because there was wolfsbane on them but the rain was helping slightly.

*

I helped Brett sit down on medical table in Deaton's vet room. Kira was helping blondie who was basically balling her eyes out. Deaton came from his office with a confused face. Trailing behind him was an older looking Asian lady. Her eyes flashed red as did mine.

"What happened? I'm their Alpha, Satomi" she asked coming over to examine them.

"Assassins" I breathed out leaning on Brett. I closed my eyes in pain when a burning sound sizzled in the air.

"Hey... Are you okay?" Kira asked walking up to me. Deaton came over lifting my shirt up. Forming on the side of my hip bone, was a moon crescent and a wolf howling at it. But what caught my attention was the 'S' wrapped around an 'A' like a snake. Deaton looked up at me shocked. I shook my head when he was gonna say something. I darted my eyes quickly towards Kira, pleading him not to say anything in front of her. I wanted to be the one revealing the big news when Scott was around. I fixed my shirt that was pretty much soaken.

I leaned on a wall for support, letting my body get used to itself. It was not to long ago I was at my house with Scott. A new rush of power was flowing wildly inside of my body. I could feel the connection with Scott forming even stronger than it was before.

"Thank you, Alpha for helping my beta's. You must be the one Brett told me about that saved his life a week or so ago" Satomi said. I opened my eyes smiling halfly.

"It's really no problem. It's the least I could do. The real Alpha you should be thanking is Scott McCall, the True Alpha" I told her. She hummed in satisfaction.

"I will keep a tab on that. I'm sorry but I didn't quite catch your name?" She asked.

"Ariana Hale" I told her. Her face was filled with shock, her back straightening.

"It can't be" she whispered. I stood up straight letting my arm fall down to my side.

"It can't be what?" I asked stepping closer.

"I don't know if it has anything to do with you but... In 1996, October 5th, Talia had a baby girl", she started, "She loved her so much but three months later, she had to give her away. Nobody exactly knows why or to who but everybody knows she was depressed for a whole year. Nobody crossed paths with her because she would snap easily. In 1997, she got pregnant again which lifted her spirits some. When she had a new baby girl, she filled her new memories with Cora... trying to forget about you" she finished.

Before he even came through the door, I sensed him coming closer. The door opened in the front meaning Scott just arrived. Kira ran ahead of me while I trailed behind her.

My throat tightened as she jumped in his arms, Scott gasping in shock. My throat tightened even more as she took his head in her hands, slamming his lips on hers. A searing pain on my hip made me double over in pain. I bit my lip, standing straight up trying to hide it.

Scott was the first to stop the kiss. He looked like a deer caught in headlights. Kira walked past me with a smug smile. Scott went to say something but stopped when he seen my hard glare. And I heard of the famous Hale glares.

His eyes traveled down to where my hand was holding on to my hip bone where the tattoo formed. His eyebrows furrowed as he lifted his shirt revealing the same exact tattoo. His eyes met mine but I still glared at him, my arms crossed over my chest. I rolled my eyes.

"Did you find him? Did you find Brett?" He asked not even apologizing.

"Actually, I think I found all of them" I said in a hard voice. He had a apologetic face. I almost caved for it but stopped myself. I gestured for him to follow me to the back.

"Satomi, this is who I was telling you about" I told the elder Alpha. While I was up front, some of Satomi's pack must've come through the back door. Oh well.

"I know who Scott McCall is" She said with a smile. I smiled sarcastically at her,

"Would've been nice news to hear earlier" I grumbled.

"Are we safe here?" Someone asked, but I was too busy having a glaring match with Kira to notice who asked.

"We're gonna need help, a lot of help" Scott answered.

*

I sat on top of the roof of the Vet. I had my head in my knees staring up at the almost sunset. I felt Scott come up and sit next to me.

"Why are you ignoring me?" Scott asked softly. I watched the sun with brimmed tears.

"You've changed me Scott" I whispered, cursing myself out for letting my voice break. His head snapped to me.

"I wasn't this crying, weak little girl before I moved to America. I wasn't the girl who I am now. You've changed me in so many ways, I hardly know who I am when I hear myself talk" I scoffed at my own words.

"Ariana look at me" Scott said gently grabbing my chin. I hesitantly looked at him.

"Even if you weren't this person you are now, I would still love you. There's nothing in this world that will change my love for you" he told me.

"Oh yeah? What about Kira?" I asked. Scott bit his lip thinking. I scoffed at him, turning around to jump off the roof. Scott had different intentions. He grabbed my hand and spun me into his arms. His lips found mine. I melted into his touch instantly. He pulled away, our eyes shining red.

"I love you not because of who you are, but becaue of who I am when I am with you" Scott said. He shook his head with a a goofy smile on his face with sparkle in his eye.

"If you're a bird... I'm a bird" he whispered. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"I know you did not just quote The Notebook on me" I giggled. Scott cackled loudly bringing me into a hug.

*

We decided to move everybody to Argent's warehouse. It was the perfect spot as Scott says. Considering it was my first time being here, I was looking around.

Footsteps were approaching from behind one of the many tarps in here. Satomi was the first to react, throwing her little silver knife thingy that I personally think is badass. A grunt was heard. Brett stepped forward growling, his eyes glowing yellow, his fangs barred.

Argent came through the hanging tarp only to get stuck facing a werewolf.

"Wait! Wait! Brett! This is his place. It's his" Scott stepped in, luckily stopping Brett from attacking Argent. I should've stepped in.

I slowly looked to my left seeing Kira staring at me. Her eyes never seemed to blink as her eyes pierced into mine. I snapped back into reality when Brett asked a question.

"Can they find us?"

"They might already know you're here. Maybe they're waiting for dark" Argent suggested.

"So, we're not safe here?" Kira asked.

"We're not safe anywhere. We've been trying to get out for days. Everywhere we turn, we find someone new trying to kill us" Satomi said.

"If they're coming, Scott and Ariana, they're coming for you too. You're still the highest ones on the dead pool" Argent told both of us.

I scoffed rubbing my forehead, "Yeah, don't remind me"

"I know. I know Lydia can get the answer from Meredith. She just needs more time" Scott sighed.

"Then that's what she'll get" Argent said confidently.

*

I watched from above, standing on a big cardboard box, as Scott walked up to my brother Derek who was loading guns. I found out he was losing all his superpowers. That must really suck; I know for sure I didn't like feeling human at all.

"They'll be okay" Scott's voice drifted into my ears as I listened in on their conversation.

"They've got claws and fangs. But they're not fighters" Derek told him cocking a gun and setting it back down.

"That's why I called you" Scott said.

"Well, try to remember I don't have claws and fangs anymore either" Derek sarcastically said. I smirked at his sassy remarks. Must run in the family.

"That's why he called me" Braeden, the dark skinned chick, jumped in on the conversation.

"Am I the only one still hoping this is all just a false alarm? I mean, it's possible we could wait here all night and nothing happens. Right?" Kira asked, a slight look of panic crossing her agonizing face.

"Scott, you heard anything from Stiles or Lydia yet?" Braeden asked.

"Lydia's still talking to Meredith. Stiles and Malia are headed to the lake house. They're trying to stop it" Scott told her. She then looked up to me.

"You?" She asked me knowing I could hear her. I tilted my head sideways, mouthing a 'no' to her.

"What if there is no stopping it? What if it doesn't end until we're all dead?" Brett asked. I jumped off the box, falling about ten feet down. I swiftly landed, not breaking a sweat.

"Then let's send a message" I said grabbing a gun from Derek's hand. His eyes met mine.

"Let's make something perfectly clear to anyone with a copy of that list" Derek continued.

"It doesn't matter if they're professional assassins, hunters, or an amateur who just picked up a gun" I said cocking the gun, my eyes looking over the crowd of werewolves.

"Anyone who thinks they can hunt and kill us for money, is gonna be put on another list" Derek said.

"Our list" we said together. My eyes were glowing red, some of the other werewolves eyes glowing yellow in submission.

"They get to be a name on our dead pool" Derek finished slamming a gun down.

*

I stood next to Derek as he was finishing up toying with his gun. I watched as his fingers danced around the trigger.

"Why can't you remember me?" I suddenly asked. Derek looked at me confused.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"Satomi said I was born a year before Cora. I learned Cora was 17 when she came not to long ago. That's about a six or seven year gap. You should've at least had a single memory of me if I stayed with your family for three months" I said.

"Correction; our family. Just because you didn't live with us or anything, doesn't change the fact you are a Hale. And probably because our mother didn't want me to remember" Derek told me.

"Correction; you might be family and I do consider you my family, but my real family, well what's left of it, is laying in a hospital bed in a coma which he'll probably never wake up from" I said.

All of a sudden, an alarm started going off in the building. I furrowed my eyebrows walking away from Derek.

"They're coming" Argent told all of us.

*

I watched in slow motion as a bomb looking thingy flew through the air, landing right in front of Braeden and I.

"Get back!" She yelled. She ran backwards as I jumped to the side trying to cover myself. Smoke popped out from the grenade things, fogging up the area. I ducked down as bullets whizzed past my head.

I saw one of the beta's get shot in the shoulder, immediately falling down. I stared at his body not believing I could die tonight.

My eyes burned red. I was not gonna die tonight. I jumped in front of a guy who had his gun pointing straight at Derek who was oblivious to this.

"Ariana!" I heard Scott yell at me but I ignored him as always. I popped the guys elbow out of place. I grabbed his weapon, banging it into his head. He fell limp to the ground. I shot at the assasins as I ran backwards trying to get near Scott. I noticed he was off fighting assassins also.

I went behind a big metal wall, knowing I had full cover right here. I checked my ammo seeing I only had half of it left. Right when I was about to shoot at them, my gun was cut in half.

I looked up quickly in surprise seeing Kira glaring at me with her eyes burning orange. She slashed at me again only to miss as I jumped to the side.

"Kira! What are you doing?" I asked over the roaring of gunshots.

"What I should've done a long time ago" she growled. She swings her katana in so many different ways, I got kind of dizzy just watching her.

"What are you gonna do? Turn into Pikachu and electrocute me?" I asked sarcastically. Her eyes burned with rage this time.

She yelled as she charged at me. Finally, the time has come. I was finally going to fight Kira. I was finally gonna whoop her ass.

I bended backwards as her sword came slashing towards my torso. I side stepped her when she tried stabbing me again. She swung her katana at me again, this time cutting my arms open. I howled in pain. In the distance I heard Scott's howl of pain, no doubt feeling my pain.

I shifted completely. I roared at her. I slashed my claws at her but she dodged them. She tried kicking my feet but I flipped over her. My fist connected with her face. She stumbled back into a paper wall, in which she fell through. On the other side where she fell was an assassin.

I ran out of sight as he shot bullets at me. Seconds later I heard his gun clatter to the floor meaning Kira took care of him. I jumped over a wall with ease, putting my legs kicking Kira in the back. She flew forward, dropping her Katana.

She rolled for a little but stopped. She spit out blood, a small laugh escaping her lips. I think this bitch is psycho. I grabbed a metal pole, a memory of me doing the same thing to Cole flashing through my head.

I waved it off as I smashed it into Kira's back. It didn't go through her, just will probably give her a serious bruise. She screamed in pain.

"Fox and Wolves aren't meant to get along Kira" I said jabbing it on her back again. It broke skin this time, blood slowly oozing out. I threw the pole to the side. I kicked her stomach making her fly a few feet away from me.

"When I first met you, I actually kinda liked you. How sad is that" I chuckled kicking her in the stomach again. She flew away again, a trail of blood following her. It was coming out of her mouth.

"Did you really think you could ruin Scott's and I's relationship?" I asked picking her head up by her hair. She had a develish smirk in her face.

"No. You did that yourself" she said glancing behind me. There stood, on the other side of the warehouse who had a clear view of us, was Scott. Blood was splattered on his face. But what caught my attention was the look of disappointment on his face.

"You set me up" I realized. She planned this all along. Scott would probably never forgive me now since I tried killing one of his pack members, our pack member. But she tried killing me! Isn't that enough to try and kill her? What do I do? Kira answered that for me.

"If I were you, I would run" she said.

And so I did.
