RECAP

Alaric let out a heavy sigh. "Kate." He said sternly.

That caused you to go back to the werewolf monster thing. "Okay, look, I've got to go find him before the Shunka finds him first and bring him to Hope." You stated.

You were about to walk away when Hope walked up to you guys. "Bring who to me?" She questioned, arms crossed and looking at you. This was gonna be fun explaining.

————

You looked between Hopes eyes, you didn't feel like talking to her. "Oh, I don't know, maybe my brother who's out in the woods with a monster that eats werewolves for sport?" You responded with just the same about of sass.

Alaric stared at you. "Kate, enough." Alaric spoke up before Hope could argue back.

You rubbed your forehead as you looked away from Hope and up at Alaric. "I need to get out of here and find Raf." You stated.

Alaric nodded in agreement but you also saw Hope nodding. "Agreed. We just need to find a way to ditch this game." Alaric stated.

When he said that last bit, you lowered your hand and crossed your arms. "No. Rafael is Hopes responsibility and mine." You side glanced Hope to see she looked a bit hurt when you said her name in a rude way. "You need to stay here and keep an eye on that new headmaster." You pointed past Hope and to the old guy with an umbrella.

Alaric looked confused. "Why?" He questioned.

You looked over at Ric when he said that. "Because he already used magic to cheat." You stated, annoyed of this conversation and with Hope. "He's up to something." You finished.

"Caroline picked my replacement herself. There's no way that she gonna hire a..." He trailed off as he looked at the new headmaster. "weirdo with an umbrella. Okay, I'm on it." He looked back at you.

You nodded, thankful he was good to keep and eye on him. "Okay. Now to plot my escape. Wish me luck." You said to Alaric, looking out to the field.

Alaric watched you walk off, Hope close behind. "Break a leg!" He yelled at you.

Hope stopped you with a pull of the arm. "What is your problem?" Hope asked you, but you didn't get a chance to respond. "First you don't tell my you've come back then you're pissed at me?" She questioned.

You pulled your arm out of her grasp. "The first thing I did when I got back was come searching for you, but when I found you, you were kissing Landon." You whispered shouted at her.

Hopes face softened as you said that. "Kate, he kissed me. He went in for another kiss but I pulled away." Hope grabbed your hands. "Trust me when I say this, I have no feelings towards Landon." Hope started explaining. "For three months I searched for a spell to bring you back I kept hitting dead ends." Hope explained.

It did make sense, so you couldn't be mad at her, right? "Okay, I believe you." You slumped your shoulders. "But if that ever happens again, the next thing you'll see is my fist." You threatened as a joke.

Hope laughed, knowing it was a joke. "We should get ready for the match, people will think it's weird 'enemies' are holding hands." Hope stated.

You nodded in agreement. "Alright. See you out there." You stated. Hope smiled and went back to her side.

You walked over to Maya, holding out your hand and helping her up. "Hey." You said.

"Hey." She replied, as she was now standing. "Thought I had her. Trick play, I guess." She continued speaking as you both walked together.

You looked around the field. "You have no idea. We're screwed." You replied.

Maya looked over at you. "Hey, it was just one score. And you're gonna march us straight down that field and tie us up." Maya replied with a happy smile.

You looked at her confused. "What do you mean? Your brother's the quarterback." You questioned and stated.

She shook her head. "No, not today. He can't risk blowing out his knee on some pick-up game, so we're all counting on you." Maya said as if it was easy, she placed a hand on your shoulder. "Look, my brother told me you loved playing ti when you were younger and still do now, you can do this." Maya stated. So you can't tell Ethan anything or he tells Maya, great. "Come on." She said, letting her hand fall as you came to a stop and stared at Ethan.

You saw him clapping and softly say something. "Come on, you got this." You were able to hear him with your werewolf hearing. You let out a soft groan as you looked away from him.

The whole team, including Maya, stood in a circle waiting for you. You jogged up to them. "Okay, uh, all right, guys, let's do this." You said as you looked at everyone in the circle.

"Do what? You're the quarterback, Kate. You call the plays." Maya stated, looking down at you.

You thought for a moment, a questioning look on your face. "Everybody go long?" You questioned the team.

Maya nodded, happy with your idea. "Works for me. Timberwolves on three?" Maya put her hand in the circle. Everyone else doing the same. "One, two, three." She counted.

"Timberwolves!" You all yelled, even though you hated that, you needed to keep your cover.

Separating, you all got into your positions. You were to catch the ball from Maya. As you placed your hands on your knees, you looked over at Josie to see her putting you mouth guard in. "That's aggressive." You said to yourself.

Maya then through the ball to you but you weren't paying attention until it hit you. "Oh." You exclaimed as you turned around and picked it up. As you turned around you saw Landon just standing there until Josie yelled at him.

He glanced at Josie. "Oh, uh, blitz!" He then started running towards you but luckily you threw the ball just in time for one of your teammates to catch it. As you threw it Landon grabbed you by the torso and pulled you to the floor, causing you to fall on top of him.

You let out a soft groan as you did hit the ground pretty hard but you need to convince Landon you were human so you could go along with your plan. You panted as you then realised Landon was still under you so you moved out of the way so he could get up.

Both of you just sat there on the ground. "Hell of a throw, Johnny Utah." Landon stated.

You looked at him, slightly chuckling but as you moved your foot, you figured this would be a good time to come up with an excuse. "Ow!" You exclaimed as you grabbed you ankle.

Landon looked over at you. "Are you okay?" He asked, worried.

"Uh-huh." You responded, as well nodding.

"I'm so sorry." Landon exclaimed.

He then got up. "Oh, it's okay." You replied. Landon held out his hands, helping you up. "Um, yeah, I think it's just twisted. Yeah." You said, faking you were in pain.

Landon kept a hold of you, helping you stand. "Um, well, there's a nurses office in the school. First floor, right inside." He let go of you and pointed to the school.

You smiled up at him, still faking you were in pain by not putting pressure on your foot. "Okay."

"You'll see it." He continued.

You looked to the school. "Okay. Uh, I think I'll find it, thank you." You then started walking off, fake groaning as you put pressure on it.

Hope then ran up to you. "That's one way to plot an escape." Hope said, faking as if she was helping you get to the side of the field.

You tilted your head, seeing how it was a pretty weird way. "Looks like you need a new quarterback." You stated as you grabbed your bag off Alaric. Hope not fake helping you anymore.

Alaric looked down at you two, seeing you guys made up. "Happy hunting." He said as you both went towards the school.

You both walked side by side. You could tel something was on Hopes mind. "You know, I wasn't alone in Malivore if that's what you're thinking." You stated, placing the bag strap over your shoulder.

Hope looked over at you. "Who was with you?" She questioned.

You let out a small sigh. "Clarke." Hope looks surprised. "Not the best company in the world but it was nice to speak to someone." You stated. "I put a truth spell on him, a mimic spell..." You trailed off. "and even a comfort spell." You softly said the last part.

Hope saw your face soften. "Why a comfort spell?" She asked.

You looked over at her. "Oh, um, he was telling me how he basically felt like nobody and a puppet towards Malivore." You explained.

Hope smiled. "You always do things to make other people feel happy." Hope said. "That's one reason why I love you." Hope smile grew bigger and so did yours.

Both of your smiles dropped as you went to open the door. As you did, it creaked. You held the door open for Hope, shutting the door as you were both inside. You looked around, seeing nothing much has changed. "You should probably know that I moved rooms." You looked at her confused. "Too many memories. But Alyssa Chang has taken our old room so good luck with that." Hope said.

Your realisation face went away. "Who said I was coming back?" You asked.

Hope looked back at you, stopping. "Why wouldn't you? You belong here." Hope stated.

You scoffed. "No one remembers me beside you. It wouldn't be the same." You responded, crossing your arms.

Hope let out a sigh. "All right, take your time." Hope grabbed your left hand and you both walked towards the stair case, going into Landons room.

You looked around. "Does nobody use electricity anymore in this school or what?" You joked, causing Hope to laugh.

"Yes, it's just no one is here in the building so theres no point." Hope explained.

You nodded in understanding. You looked around the room to see Rafaels' stuff packed up. As you went to Landons bed you went to his hoodie that was laid out on the bed, grabbing it and just remembering what it felt like to steal his hoodies and wear them, waiting for him to realise and after he did, he'd force you to give it back. You then went over to his guitar that has been through to much, including you breaking it at one stage but that's another story for another day.

You didn't realise that Hope was just watching you as you were so caught up in what you were doing. "Stop. Stop. Stop. You're here for a reason." You told yourself as you placed his hoodie back down and walked backwards, away from his stuff.

You turned around to look at Hope, she was smiling with tears in her eyes. "It's okay to have missed them, Kate." Hope said.

Shaking your head, you let out a breathe. "I know, but we need to find Rafael." You stated as you searched through the cardboard boxes. You pulled out a few clothes of his. Hope made her way over and sat down in front of you.

You grabbed his clothes and put them in your bag that had the crossbow Alaric gave you. You then pulled out a map and laid it out on the floor. Grabbing the knife, you opened it and poked your finger, allowing the blood to fall onto the map. You gave the knife to Hope so she could do the same.

Just then Landon came into the room. "What are you doing in my room?" He questioned, confused why Hope was there.

You stopped hovering your hand over the map and looked at Landon. Hope quickly got up. "Uh... look, Landon, I know that this looks bad." Hope started speaking.

You slowly got up and stood next to Hope. "No. It looks like magic." Landon replied.

He looked you up and down before he started running. "Corporis Impetus!" You lifted your hand before shutting it. Hope was shocked you reacted that fast, although she didn't know what you went through in Malivore.

Landon was now frozen in a running position. "I'm starting to think you're not some ordinary girl." Landon breathed out, scared.

You looked a little worried. Hope rubbed your back in a way of comfort. "Look, my name is Kate, okay? I-I'm a witch. I'm working with Dr.Saltzman." You started explaining. "He asked me to do a locator spell to find Rafael with Hope." You stated.

"Why wouldn't he ask one of his own daughters?" Landon questioned.

You looked at Hope as you didn't know how to reply. "Because they don't know about the Crescent Wolf Clan." Hope cut in. "Not like I do." Hope finished.

"Wolf- I-I've read about that. Does that mean you have what you need to turn Raf back, Hope?" Landon questioned.

Hope looked at you to drop the spell. "Saeclum." You chanted and Landon was able to move again. You crossed your arms and looked Landon in the eyes as he turned around. "There is a monster in the woods, and it feeds on werewolves." You explained.

Landon looked shocked as you said that. "Oh. Then I'm coming with you." Landon stated.

You let out a groan. "Sorry, but I fly solo." You replied with a tone, forgetting Hope was here.

Hope looked confused when you said that. Landon scoffed. "Then why is Hope here?" He questioned.

You tilted your head at that response. "Because, she's the one that can turn him back." You stated.

He let out a sigh. "He's my best friend." Landon tried being reasonable.

"You do realise I could freeze you again, right?" You fired back.

Hope looked at you up and down. "Would that spell last forever?" He questioned.

You rolled your eyes and turned around, grabbing the map off the floor and grabbed the zipped up bag. You then forcefully pushed the bag into his chest. "Just try to keep up." You said as you walked out the door.

Hope probably will never know what you went through in Malivore but it's changed your tone towards people a little bit, maybe because you were stuck with that douchebag Clark. All she could let you do was get used to people again.

Landon looked at Hope before following you out the room, Hope close behind.
