Chapter 4: (Penelope PoV)
She'd wake up and see Nick hovering over her and poking her. "N-Nick why are you hovering over me and poking me...?" she'd ask shyly "Because I've been up for hours and I'm bored." He said stopping. "Ok but again, why me?" she asked with an 'really' look. "So, we can get going... I want to be to her last known area by sunset tonight." He said matter of flatly. She'd nod and got up. He left and grabbed his stuff and waited at the door. She'd grab her stuff and met him at the door. "You all ready?" He asked. "Yup" she replied.
He opened the door for her and then followed her out as she left. "Do you know why she left?" she asked. "She didn't like our step dad at the time, He didn't care about us whatsoever, like we both and gotten bit by a wild wolf and he just looked at us and walked away..." "Your dad sounds like an asshole" she said with a deep glare but meant for the douche bag. "He was... I still have scars to prove it." He said laughing slightly at her glare. "I believe you but if I do see that douche bag I can't promise that I won't beat the shit out of him though" she said with the same glare. "Good luck, I may or may not have a small bounty on my head for killing him..." He said looking away. She took one deep breath, calmed down and placed her hand on his shoulder "For what it's worth I believe he deserved it but I do want to help." She stopped there before she went on a rant. "On a better subject. What was your favorite subject in school?" He asked adjusting their path heading for her last known spot. "Hmm, i would have to say gym." He laughed and kept walking. "Okay academic." She laughed a bit. She hovered over his shoulder "Got anything?" "All I know is that she was last seen at a small dinner about 20 miles away..." he said looking at her. "Ok, in a change of subject. What do you like to do in your spare time?" she asked. "I read, A lot." He said matter of flatly. 'Huh, he's weird than the other people I met.' she thought.
She looked around seeing something strange in the woods. She followed her urge to check it out and went into the forest. "Hey what did you see?" He asked stopping and turning towards her. "I'm not sure..." She said and continued to look around for it again. Then she saw two odd wolves side by side. "Hey Nick" "Yeah?" He replied. "I saw them." she said pointing at the two odd wolves. His eyes focused on the spot then widened "Rouges." he said pulling her away from the woods and back towards the main road. "Rouges...?" she asked a bit confused. "Don't question it and keep up." He said picking up the pace. She did her best to keep up and saw them following us through the forest but I accidentally made eye contact with them. He grabbed her hand and started to jog away quicker.
She'd focus on her speed and the forest until she saw a black wolf joined them watching both. "Shit." He grabbed her off her feet and ran into a dead sprint to get them away from the wolves. "What's going on Nick?" she asked confused as she saw the black wolf turn into a man. 'What the hell!?' she thought. "I'll explain later. But for now, just hold on and avoid eye contact." he said in a rush. She didn't know whether to panic, push him off, or just obey and do as he said as my eyes were still making contact to the man. "Look away he sees it as a challenge and you don't want to challenge him." He said still holding her and sprinting, looking for a place to hide them. She'd cover her eyes and buries in his shoulder. He found a small gas station and ran into it setting her down panting, out of breath. Her mind was swarming with questions with what she had just saw. "What... The hell did I just see...?" she asked.
He sighed and replied "You just saw your second third and fourth werewolf..." She looked confused because she had only seen 3 werewolves. "What do you mean fourth...?" she asked quietly. He looked down and away. "Put the puzzle together, Your smart." She did so and didn't know how to react to him. After a good half an hour to an hour she got up and out of the blue, hugged him. "I don't mind the fact that you're a werewolf... But i do want to know more... If you're ok with that" she said. He sighed in relief and hugged her back slightly "I don't know much I'm hoping When I find my sister she'll know a lot more than me."
She started thinking for a bit and said "What about the man? The alpha i mean. I know only that much" she said looking away a bit ashamed that she didn't know more besides that "He wasn't an alpha... Least not in the way you think of it. He was a rouge. Rouges sometimes join into a pack where the biggest wolf is the 'Alpha' even though his wolf may only be a gamma..." He said closing his eyes. "I see..." She sat down and wondered about a few things but saved them for a later date. "What do we do now?" "We wait and hope they don't come in here or I may have to fight them..." he said sighing. She started thinking then asked, "How much do you trust me?" "Why do you ask?" He said hesitating a little "I have an idea, but I need you to trust me on it" "What are you planning?" he asked questioningly. she laughed a little bit then said, "Just trust me ok?" She peeked out the window without being spotted and sees a good direction to go in. "I'll be back in a bit, stay here please" She said as she pulled out an old ring of hers and walks out the door. 'Ok I haven't been spotted yet but i need to move fast' she thought as she started bolting in the direction she had seen as they followed. "There she is! Catch her!" one of them shouted out. I kept running faster and harder reaching towards the forest. She threw the old ring in one direction and covered her scent from them as she hides under a fallen tree. They had followed the scent where she threw the ring, she took the chance to run back to the gas station.
She banged on the door then said, "Nick let me in!" She exclaimed out of breath. He quickly let her in "WHAT WHERE YOU ARE DOING?" He yelled at her. She entered and sat down as she said breathless "Sending them on a wild goose chase. They'll be running for the entire day maybe trying to find my ass so your welcome" She said glaring a bit. He sighed and walked out heading for the dinner again. 'Good thing i didn't say what i was doing or else he wouldn't have let me do it' she thought as she got herself together. He stopped and waited for her to catch up. She'd catch up "You know it doesn't hurt to trust someone or take one or two risks..." she said. He sighed and started walking again. She followed with. 'Ok now I don't know if he's being a distant ass or just plain weird and distant' she thought trying to figure him out. She secretly split from him for a second and went to check something out again. She knelt to figure out where they could've came from. Until I saw a different strange man "Hello" he said. "Uhm, hello" She replied. "What are you doing out here?" he asked "I'm just wondering around... I do plan on leaving now" She replied before she was knocked unconscious.
They had dragged her back at their main camp "Good work Nicole but we don't know if she does know about us" the man had said. 'Huh...? Am I dreaming...?' she thought. After a minute he turned around hearing the short conversation the looked around for her "Penelope? Where'd you go?" He walked over and caught an old familiar scent. 'No way...' he thought to himself. He started to follow the scent looking for Penelope or his sister..." Nicole do you mind having her in your cabin until I know what to do with her?" Gene had asked her. "I guess she can stay with me." she said sighing at the alpha. Gene placed her on Nicole's couch in her cabin then headed out. 'What the hell is going on...?' she thought to herself looking at the girl named Nicole. She stayed silent, not wanting to tick her off or something. As soon as the alpha was gone she turned on Penelope "Who are you and why do i smell my brother on you!?" She demanded She jumped, startled "W-Who's your brother" She asked a bit scared but knew fully. She kept it to herself though. "Nick, He's about 4'7, skinny and has eyes and hair color like mine." she snapped out at her. She cleared her voice "I don't know a Nick but what's this about scent? Do you guys like sniffing people or something?" she said with a straight face. "Don't lie. I smell him all over you." she said glaring at her
"I don't know a Nick. Who is this Nick?" she asked, 'Nick wherever the hell you are HURRY UP!' she thought to herself. Nicole grabbed her shirt and dragged her to her feet "Tell me where he is or I I'll slam your head into the wall until it's flat." she growled. "Try bitch. Try!" She exclaimed glaring at her then exclaimed "I don't know your brother! Even if i did why would i end up here?!" she glared at Nicole even deeper. She threw her onto the floor knocking the wind out of her. "Don't push me human." She said her eyes flashing golden. "You can try bitch, but I don't know shit!" I exclaimed glaring at her much deeper. Nicole picked her up by her throat and pushed her against the wall. "If you don't tell me I will make your life hell." "Go ahead bitch! I don't know a damn thing!" she exclaimed. She started to squeeze her neck, choking her. "TELL ME WHERE HE IS!" She demanded again "Fuck you..." she said gasping. Nicole squeezed harder before letting her go and walking to her room. She'd cough and breathe hard 'Nick... Wherever you are... hurry up... 'she thought as she reached to the couch, laying on it.
