My Hockey Alpha Chapter 257: Still Sisters

Nina

While Enzo was rallying the hockey team and Luke was evacuating the students into the tunnels where

it was safe, I was coming up with another plan.

I couldn’t tell anyone about it — not even Enzo, Jessica, or Lori. It was too dangerous of a plan, and I

knew that they would all disapprove of it. But it had to be done; I knew that the rogue leader was sent

here for me, and therefore I could lure him away from the others.

I hid several vials of the antidote in the inner pockets of my jacket, where no one would see them. My

plan was maybe a little too rushed and simple, but it was all I could come up with in the time that I had.

When everyone else was fighting, my plan was to distract the rogue leader and lure him away from the

others. Then, once we were far enough away, I hoped to ambush him with the vials of antidote and turn

him human.

I just hoped that it would work. The rogue leader seemed to be genetically engineered, so there was no

knowing exactly how much of the antidote it would take to turn him human. For all I knew, the antidote

wouldn’t even work at all. But I had to try something. If I could just take out the leader, then that would

make the rogues under his command lose their momentum. If there was one thing I learned from the

first attack on the campus, it was that rogues needed a leader of some kind in order to get anything

done. Without that, they would break apart and would be less of a threat. Therefore, I was confident

that taking out their leader would make the rogues easily defeated. Maybe it would even make them

retreat.

I just managed to finish stuffing the last vial of the antidote into my jacket when Enzo and Matt

suddenly burst into the infirmary.

“Have you seen Selena?” Enzo asked, sounding somewhat agitated but still cool and level-headed at

the same time. “No one can find her. I hope she didn’t make a run for it. She could be up to something.”

I let out an exasperated sigh. “I’ll find her.”

We needed Selena somewhere safe. She was weaker now without any of her powers, which made her

an easier target. And if she was killed, then I would die too. She needed to be kept in the tunnels with

the others, where no one would be able to hurt her and where Luke could keep a close eye on her.

Enzo looked at his watch. “Judging from what Luke said, we should have a couple of hours before the

rogues get here,” he said. “I’m going to be busy getting the team ready to fight. Are you sure you’ll be

okay looking for her?”

I nodded. “I’ll be fine,” I replied. “I think I might know where she’s hiding, and she can’t hurt me now that

I have a wolf and she doesn’t.”

Enzo paused for a few moments. His brown eyes warily searched my face; I knew that he was

incredibly worried about me. With a weak smile, I walked up to him and planted a gentle kiss on his

cheek.

“I’ll be fine,” I whispered. “I’ll be back soon.”

Enzo nodded. His hand lingered on my face for a few moments before he dropped his arm back down

to his side and nodded for a second time. With a final squeeze of his hand, I pushed the infirmary door

open and ran out into the chaos.

Hundreds of students and frightened townspeople were running around the campus. Luke and a few

others were wrangling people and gathering them so they could be calmly informed of the situation and

taken into the tunnels. I tried to help a bit as I ran past, but I had an equally important mission of my

own to find Selena.

“If I were Selena, where would I be…” I whispered to myself as I jogged across campus. I knew that

she couldn’t be in her dorm, as Luke would have looked there first. I decided to try the lecture halls first,

since they had no windows and had desks to hide under. Plus, she knew those rooms well compared to

the rest of campus.

I jogged into the classroom building, then down the stairs into the basement where the three large

lecture halls were held.

“Selena?” I called, pushing open the first door. I ran up and down the rows of seats, checking beneath

the desks, but she wasn’t there. She wasn’t in the maintenance closet, either. In fact, as I ran through

all three lecture halls, I realized that she wasn’t there. I cursed under my breath as I finished searching

the last one, then ran back out into the hall and looked around wildly for another option.

She was my twin; even though she didn’t have her wolf, we still had our twin bond. I knew that if I just

closed my eyes and focused really hard, I could get a sense of where she might have gone…

Suddenly, I got a feeling.

The bathrooms. She had to be in there.

I ran over to the girls’ bathroom and flung the door open.

“Selena?”

I was answered with silence, but I knew she was in here. I could sense it. I slowly began to walk down

the row of stalls and pushed each door open, looking for her.

“Selena, it’s safe to come out,” I said. “We have a place where we’re taking all of the refugees. You’ll be

safe there. I promise I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Suddenly, I heard someone clear their throat from the stall at the end.

“Fuck off,” Selena growled.

I sighed and walked down to the last stall. When I tried to push the door open, it was locked; but I could

see Selena crouching on the toilet through the crack in the door.xo.com fast update

“Selena, come on,” I begged. “We don’t have a lot of time. I’m just trying to keep you safe. The Luna

sent those rogues for us. You can’t hide on your own.”

“I’ll be fine,” she croaked. “Go away.”

A groan rumbled in my throat. “If you don’t come out, I’ll break down the door and drag you to safety

myself. I don’t want either of us to die, Selena. Please.”

There was a long silence. I could see my sister’s wide, blue eyes staring at me through the crack in the

door for a long time before she finally jumped down off of the toilet and slowly opened the door. When

she opened it, I could see now that she had a knife in her trembling hand.

I held my hands up in surrender and took a step back.

“There’s no need for that,” I said.

Selena’s face darkened. “How do I know you’re not trying to play a trick on me or something?”

I sighed. “There’s no way I can convince you for certain, and I know that,” I replied calmly. “I just need

you to trust me. Regardless of everything, you’re my twin sister. If the Luna gets her way, we won’t

have any family left except for each other. I promise I’ll protect you, but you need to trust me.”

Selena stared at me for a few long moments. For a long time, I wasn’t sure if she would make a stab at

me, run, or listen to me.

But finally, she lowered the knife and stared down at the floor.

“Fine,” she whispered. “I’ll go with you.
