Peter runs at me and I put up my telekinetic shield. He goes in for a punch, but hits the shield and flies backward. He stands up, confused. I push him over lightly with my telekinesis and he stumbles to the ground; however, he gets up quickly. I see him close his eyes and he tries to get into my head, it doesn't seem to work though because I don't feel anything. Just before he opens his eyes, I teleport behind him. I tap him on the shoulder giving him a slight burn. He shoots around with his foot out aiming to kick me in the gut. I catch his foot with my telekinesis and throw him back. He stumbles to his feet; the hard blows weakening him. I hold out my hands and aim to build the pressure inside his head. He falls to his knees holding around his temples; pain in his eyes. He lets out a quiet 'stop' and I stop, his pressure equalizing in his head again.
"We have this year's new winner, Kate Smith!" the principal announces.
The crowd cheers and I walk up to Peter, "hey Pete, you okay?" I ask him still kneeling on the ground.
"Yeah, congrats," he smiles.
I hold out a hand and he takes it, standing up, "you put up a good fight. You must tell me how you blocked out my telepathy."
"Another time."
He nods, "so, are you going to call me Pete from now on?"
"Definitely, it suits you." I throw him a smile and he gives me one back.
There was a party after the tournament at the boy's dorm. We all head over there after getting changed, I am wearing simple light washed jeans with a bralette and an open flannel. I walk over with Alana and Ryla. We talked about the tournament and I found out Alana got 152nd place and Ryla got place 240. We soon make it to the boy's house and we walk in. Everyone goes silent and turns to face us, then suddenly they erupt out in cheer and clapping. A couple guys I do not know come up to me and lift me above their heads. I am smiling ear to ear, even though I do not like attention, this feels totally different. I feel at home. I stick to drinking water the whole night because I still cannot shake the feeling something bad is coming and it is coming soon. I look around for Luca or Jason and after searching for five minutes I finally find Jason.
"Jason, can I talk to you?"
"Of Course, come on."
He leads me to his room and shuts the door.
"So, what's up?"
"I think something bad is going to happen tonight. I can't explain it, but for the last two days I have had this feeling that I cannot shake. We need to prepare everyone who is somewhat sober and notify the teachers."
"I will mind-link my pack and tell them we may need their help. You go find the teachers then I will get the sober people downstairs."
"Okay, what is a mind-link?"
"Oh right, I can talk through my mind to the members of my pack. How are you not wasted right now?"
"I have only been drinking water because of this feeling, what about you?"
"Since I am a wolf, I can't really get drunk."
"Okay, I am off. Stay safe."
"You too."
As I walk downstairs, I text Daniel letting him know about how I think something is going to happen. He is on his way. I think of the fastest way to find the teachers and I remember that my father has telepathy. I decide to try to communicate with Principal Grimm through my mind.
I imagine Principal Grimm and then say in my mind,
Principal Grimm, this is Kate Smith. I need you to get all of the teachers up. I have reason to believe something bad is going to happen tonight. Jason is rounding up sober students and he has mind-linked his pack.
Kate? I will get the teachers right away. How are you speaking with me? Can you even hear me?
Yes, I can hear you and I don't have time to explain. I will hopefully see you with the other teachers soon at the boy's dorm.
Be there soon.
I end the connection with the principal and head back inside to help Jason. I still cannot find Luca anywhere, maybe he passed out in his room.
"Okay everyone, listen up!" the crowd quiets down, "who is decently sober right now?"
I see five hands shoot up out of the many people. This will not be enough; the two Di's are wasted, and Luca is a-wall. I get an idea, I was able to heal my wound, maybe I can heal them so they become sober. I have to do this discreetly, so no one knows it is me. I walk into the corner of the room and close my eyes I focus on the people around me and I manage to sober up eight of them. They look extremely confused. I walk over to another corner and sober up some more students. Soon enough, the whole house is sober and I walk over to a stressed Jason.
"Hey Jason, I think you should tell everyone that something bad is coming."
"How do I do that if they are all extremely wasted?"
"They are not wasted anymore, now just do it, I will answer questions later, okay?"
"Okay."
Jason makes a speech, I have to admit that he is really good at those. I guess he has to be because he is going to be the alpha of his pack one day. I see Daniel walk in and I make my way over to him.
"Hey, everyone here is being told to prepare for something that may be coming. Jason called his pack and the teachers are on their way."
"Perfect," there is a knock at the door, "must be the teachers."
Daniel opens the door and mumbles, "what the hell?"
In bursts a demon servant followed by nine others.
"Crap," is all I manage to say before they begin to attack.
I lean over to Daniel and whisper, "any powers I should know about that can help?"
"No sorry."
"Any way you can talk me through on how to send these things back to hell?"
"Yes, you can probably teleport then back there. Have you ever seen a picture in the history textbooks?"
"Nope, but I have been there. Is that good enough?"
He looks surprised, but manages to spit out, "perfect."
I go over to one of the demon servants attacking Jason, I use my telekinesis to lift it up and then I teleport it to the cells in the underworld. I go around the room doing this, and I count out all ten.
"What the hell were those things?" Peter exclaims.
"Those were demon servants," I reply, "Aluca may be close by."
Everyone looks terrified. I hear howling and panic for a second, but Jason explains that it is his pack coming. I sigh in relief; the wolves shift into their human for outside and the teachers arrive. Everyone makes their way outside the house. I walk over to Principal Grimm and he is talking to another man I do not recognize.
"Ah Kate, there you are. Is everyone okay? Anything happen?"
"Well, ten demon servants attacked the house."
"What? Where did they all go?" he almost yells.
"I sent them back to hell."
Both the principal and the other man look at me, wide-eyed.
"You okay?"
"How did you do that? To teleport then somewhere you must have seen the place before," the unknown man says.
"I may have been to the underworld once. Not a very pleasant place might I add. I'm sorry for being blunt, but who are you?"
"Oh, excuse me for not introducing myself. I am Alpha Liam of the Riverwood Pack."
"You are Jason's father."
He nods in response.
"After all of this we are going to have a long talk," the principal tells me.
"Okay."
I feel like I can trust them both, Jason as well. Jason walks over to us.
"Dad, Principal Grimm, Kate. Everyone is accounted for except..."
"Luca," I cut him off.
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"I haven't seen him for a few hours. I have a bad feeling."
"Bad like he is hurt?" Jason asks.
"Bad like he is helping him." I state.
"Well, well, well. What do we have here?"
I hear the voice coming from behind Alpha Liam and my breath hitches in my throat.
"I say let's have some fun, shall we?"
I step around the alpha so I can protect everyone else from the man threatening us. I see a hell hound on either side of the man. Only one word crosses my mind.
Luca.
