Sophia's POVJosh and I walked into the school halls early Monday to see Jonathan standing between a Senior and Kira Reyes. She was wearing her usually gsses, a cream baggy pants, white oversized sweater with white kicks. Her hair ruffled like someone grabbed it. The Senior, a rugby pyer if I remembered him right stood fuming at Jonathan who had his usual calm and cold expression. I wanted to run up there to help but a part of me wanted to see how this will py out. Note to self, talk to Paul about getting his guys in line."Move Raygan. That little nerd promised me an A+ instead I got an D and now I'm off the team till my grades are up," the bully barked at Johnny."Have you tried studying. You know prove people wrong that all Jocks are stupid," Jonathan replied still calm but now with a smug smirk on his face."Careful Raygan or your next."Jonathan let out a little ugh, "you think I'm afraid of you William. I have a question for you. Does your father still work at Crescent General?""W....what?""You know what don't answer that, of course he is. So let me make this clear so you can understand. You will leave Kira alone for good or your father won't have to worry about that promotion. If a hair on her head is even out of pce by you or your friends I'll make sure your father can't get a job in this town. Do see understand each other?" Jonathan's face was now cold and serious.William's face froze in shock seeing that Jonathan was dead serious. I stood there smiling, it's about time someone stood up to those jerks, I just didn't know Kira was being bullied. Come to think of it I've hardly seen Kira since school started. William nodded to Jonathan and walked off and so did the crowd."Th...thank you Jonathan," her voice still as meek as I remembered but there was something else. Bags under her eyes, she looked like she lost weight and she looked tired."It's nothing Kira. Any improvements in your mom's condition?""She's still in a coma and the doctors still don't know if she'll wake up," she started to cry and Jonathan hugged. "They're talking about pulling the plug. I..I..I can't lose her Job. I've already lost the Dad in that accident, I..just can't..lose her too."Jonathan looked up and his eyes met mine knowing I was listening in. At that moment I knew what I was thinking. I sighed and nodded at him."What if I tell you that I can cure your mother and make sure no one picks on you anymore." Kira looked up at him in shock, wonder, surprised and desperation. My heart went out to her. She's been going through all of this with no help or someone to talk to."Ca...can you really?""Of course. Just meet me at the hospital after school.""Sure, absolutely," her face lit up with hope and she ran off to her locker. I walked over to Jonathan with Josh."Take care of her ok Jon," I said in a low voice."Of course, they won't want for nothing." With that Josh and I walked away to find our friends."What was that about," asked Josh."It's just something Jonathan warned me about. Nothing serious so rex wolf boy." He shrugged his shoulders and we continued walking. As we walked up to the group Shayloh being Shayloh jumped us."So a Senior is keep a party ter. You coming?""Another party," Joshua compined."After what happened at the st party imma sit this one out. Besides I have something to do after school.""Hey.... I have this thing with my dad so that's a no for me. But you guys go and fill us in after," said Kairi.Shayloh and Chloe looked down and I could tell that it wasn't just about the party."It's just that ever since your birthday you three have been . We hardly hang out anymore and it's like something else is going on," Michael intervened on Chloe's behalf. Was it true that I've been giving them the cold shoulder? Let's see since the Quincea?era I've been hang out with Kairi (a lot), training (with the pack and with Theon), guard duty, Art Sundays....oh....ok this is bad, even Michael is seeing it.With a sigh I looked at them. "Ok how about this Saturday we go to the falls just us?"They looked at each other then nodded. "Ok let's do that, this Saturday so everyone clear your calendars," ordered Chloe."The bell's about to ring so let's get to css," said Travis hugging Shayloh. Honestly those two are so cute it's contagious, and to think he used to bully her. Boys.School uneventful apart from this morning, thank God. Travis and Shayloh went God knows where to do God knows what but we all have a strong guess, Chloe, Daniel, Jeff and Michael behind to do a project, Josh disappeared and Kairi's dad picked her up. He asked to drop me at the gym but I refused, I had somewhere else to be.It took twenty minutes to get from school to Theon's apartment. He has me coming over every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for training. Ever since the party I've been feeling more comfortable around Theon, talking, ughing and just catching up to the point where it feels like he never left. Of course the Pack nor my parents knows I've been hanging out with him. For some weird reason they don't like Theon, even my brother were his best friends have been cagey went I asked them about Theon and just changed the subject whenever I ask him. Whatever it is must have been huge. I was about to ring the bell when I got the feeling someone was watching me. I sniffed and picked up an all too familiar scent. Turning around I walked away from the door and back down the stairs. I could his heartbeat, he was close, just around the corner. I stopped right at the edge, slowed my heartbeat and made a sudden turn to see Paul with an a shocked look on his face."Paul why are you following me? And don't deny it.""I wasn't following you. I came to see my brother." He said calmly, slowing his heart rate but his body odor already gave him away (thank you Theon)."The same big brother you said was dead to you?" Just cut the crap. I know your lying to me.""I——.""Paul. What are you doing here? Not that it isn't nice to see you but this is strange?" Theon's voice came from behind Paul, whose face was stiff with widen eyes. "Oh Soph. You here early? I just ran to get some snacks for our session.""Session?""Thanks T."*HOLD ON ONE MINUTE!" We stopped our conversation even though Paul is between us. "Why are you her Sophia?""She's been training with me," Theon said now standing beside me."Why? I don't see what you can teach her that we can't.""I beg to differ little brother. After I left the Reservation I've seen the world, seen things that if made their way here would kill most of you.""LEFT THE PACK. YOU WERE BANISHED FOR KILLING HARRY,"I looked at Theon in shock who's face was calm but you can see the storm brewing in his eyes. Paul was furious, so much so that his eyes were glowing. I remember Harry, he was the silent one in the group. He was kind and fearless. But my parents said he died in an accident, although knowing what I know now I should be surprised at yet another lie. I'm just surprised at it was Theon that killed his own brother."It was an accident, Paul." This was the first time I've heard Theon's voice this deep. He looked both hurt and angry. "Something happened that night, what I don't know but someone did something to me.""Yeah right, the victim card. Why don't man up you monster and take responsibility.""Man up? Looks who's talking. I was like you, young, naive, doing everything the Elders say. But when Harry died they did nothing to find the truth, even our father didn't help. I was banished, my whole life gone, for something that even now we don't know what happened.""We?" I asked feeling pity for Theon but I didn't know what to do at the moment. All of this was just unreal."Yes Soph we. I wasn't the only one there. Your brothers were there too and just like me your brothers can't remember what happened that night." He looked down at me with tears in his eyes then something clicked."It was after that night my brothers went overseas for College, right?" I asked with wide eyes."Yea, your grandfather didn't want to banish them so your parents sent them always. I wished someone has fought for me that night."We stood there in silence in the middle of the stairs and wondered how come no one has come out yet."So that's your game? You've been attacking the Pack for what, revenge?" Paul finally said now folding his arms."That's not me.""Stop lying. You're the Lycan that's been attacking us.""Paul do you me that much?""Wait... the..the beast, that's you?" I pointed at Theon in fear, stepping back from him."Sophia that's not me. Yes I am a Lycan but I haven't been attacking the Reservation.""Has much as I would like to rip your throat out for what you did. The Elders would want to see you.""If that's what will make you happy, little brother.""We're taking my Jeep." We all left Theon's apartment after him dropped off the snacks inside. The ride was tense. All lot of mixed emotions and unresolved issues. I more I think I know everything some else comes up that shocks me. We pulled up to the Pack House where a few wolves were standing outside. They stood up in attack position when they saw Theon getting out."Call the Elders, we need to have an emergency meeting," announced Paul pushing Theon inside. Time pass and the Elders gathered, taking their seats with my grandfather taking the top seat as Chief. We were standing in the middle of a Oak table in the shape of a Crescent Moon. They all had different expression on their faces. Some angry, shocked, neutral and one had a expression I couldn't pin point."Theon Webster. Why have you returned?" My grandfather was calm and that was concerning. Anytime he was calm when the situation calls for another emotion, never ends well. The only question is what will happen to me."To protect your granddaughter, Chief.""Protect her, from what?""I've heard about a group that has their sights on the wolves of this town. Specifically the females of the founding families.""And how did you come across this information?" Elder Pame spoke up."They came for me and captured me. Ran test on me until I escaped using the Full Moon."My grandfather turned to me and Paul, "And how did you two came across him?""Sophia was helping me tracking him down. I have reason to believe Theon has been the Lycan attacking the Pack.""I have not been attacking the Pack, Elders. I have been watching over the Pack. Killing anyone that would attack here.""Do you have proof, that you are we're not the one attacking us?"Suddenly three howls were heard. Paul and I recognized two of the howls. "Sarah and Cole.""Elders," a young wolf ran in to the hall. "The Lycan it's back. It's attacking the wolves guarding the borders." The Elders looked at Theon with confused looks while Theon stood there at ease."Mobilize all wolves avaible, we're taking that thing down now. We will deal with Theon after," my grandfather said in a calm but booming voice. Paul and I ran off of the hall and transformed quickly and rushed to the sounds of a fight. Around ten wolves were fighting the same Lycan that attacked the st time. How strong was this thing? Some of the wolves were adults and this thing was still fighting strong. Suddenly all our minds were linked and the voice of my father came thundering through."Circle it, steadily. Don't attack until I give the word.""Yes sir," we all said in unison.The beast eyed us closely as if I could see the muscles through our skin. It growled and snarled then got down on all fours."ATTACK.""We pounced on him biting and scratching it. It howled in pain before taking out towards a tree, taking four wolves with it. Jumping high the wolves fell off with a loud thud before nding on them, (those were definitely some broken bones). We know had thirty wolves fighting it but it still looked like it wanted to fight, like it still can. Then it took a step down and getting on all four with it's head down. I low deep and dangerous growl came from behind us. It was Theon. His eyes were bright yellow, fangs out and his crawls, they were longer than normal and pitch bck. The Lycan seeing our attention on Theon took off. The adults ran after it while Theon and the rest of us headed back to the Pack House. Seeing the Lycan's reaction to Theon I could tell that he was stronger and could easily catch it but more than likely the Elders might think he's working with it. I know Paul might be thinking about it after he was wrong about Theon attacking us. But if Theon wasn't attacking us then who and how many Lycans are out there? Also who was behind the night Harry died?
