The Storm

Selena

"She is stronger then both you and me, so I think she'll be fine until we got there... hopefully," I told him and put my seatbelt on too. I wasn't going to let him go alone, even if I was pregnant. I knew I was being selfish.

[Callie]

Ian

I just nodded, pressing down on the gas as soon as she had her seatbelt on.

[alex]

Selena

I felt my entire body fill with adrenaline. I wished that Alessandra was alright, she had to be. She had always been kind to me and I never thought I'd be able to be good friend with girls.

[Callie]

Ian

I hit the brakes as soon as we pulled into the driveway, almost running over one of Will's men in the process. Apparently Alessandra was still doing pretty good. I rushed into the house just as she threw one more out her window, then dashed into another room, then came back out. With different clothes on.
"Where's - "
"He escaped," she said, staring at the ground. "Help me throw them out the window."
Oh. Right. I'd forgotten she had an ocean view. I picked up one of the unconscious guys and chucked him out the window.

[alex]

Selena

I got into the house and transformed, just in case. I walked up to Alessandra and Ian as they threw a guy out of the window. I growled slightly.

[Callie]

Alessandra

I raised an eyebrow at Selena. "What's wrong? I'm fine."

[alex]

Selena

I rolled my eyes and grabbed a blanket and wrapped it around me, while transforming. "I know, but I was just thinking... if you hadn't been okay. I would have done some messed up shit."

[Callie]

Alessandra

"Right," I said and hugged her tightly. "I take it he spilled, then?"

[Ashley (;]

Brianne

"I barely remember what that nurse even looks like," I muttered.

[alex]

Selena

I glanced at Ian. "Yeah, he did. Remind me never to become a police investigator. I hate it."

[Callie]

Alessandra

I grinned. "Will do."

Micah

"I do," I said, going up to the front desk. "Is Nurse Bailey here?" I asked.

[alex]

Selena

"I think you should come and stay with us for a while."

[Callie]

Alessandra

I shook my head. "I'll be fine. I can take that guy if he comes back. He's just... a sneaky little bastard."

[alex]

Selena

I frowned. "What if they come more next time? Or if they sneak in while you're asleep?"

[Callie]

Alessandra

"Would I really been any better in your place? I have an alarm, and even if I stayed with you guys, you'd probably all be asleep, too." I bit my lip slightly; I had the feeling Nessie saw things in her dreams as well, and she'd wake them up if she was worried. I just wanted to stay here.

[alex]

Selena

I scowled at her with a shrug. It didn't seemed like anything would change her mind. "Just..." I sighed. "Nevermind. Call us tomorrow."

[Callie]

Alessandra

"Will do," I said, "but just a minute." I walked over and tapped Ian on the shoulder. "Explain," I demanded. "I want to know why the hell your old friends are after you, why they broke into my house and tried to fucking rape me, and why you don't even give a shit that you're dumping their bodies out the window."
Ian grimaced and proceeded to give me the so-called "short" version of the story, which still took up fifteen minutes of my life that I'd never get back.

[alex]

Selena

I opened the trunk of the car and grabbed a pair of jeans and a shirt. I always had some extra clothes, just in case. I looked around me to make sure that no one was watching before dropping the blanket and putting the clothes in quickly. Then I got into the car.

[Callie]

Alessandra

I blinked. "Well. Lovely. So your ex-gang friends are after you because you killed their leader?"
"Pretty much."
I hit him in the back of the head. "Then why didn't you just say that?!"
He smiled sheepishly and shrugged. "Didn't think of it." Then he hugged me and walked out the door. "Stay safe, Alessandra."

[alex]

Selena

I stretched out in my seat and yawned loudly. I closed my eyes, I would just rest until Ian got here.

[Callie]

Alessandra

"I'll do my best," I told him with a roll of my eyes, shutting the door after him and flopping down on the couch. Well, I was done with the wedding stuff until I met with Lola and Elliot again to discuss what else they needed.

Ian

I got into the car and looked over to Selena, frowning to myself. Maybe she was right. Maybe they wouldn't stop. And there were tons of them; we couldn't take them on by ourselves. I'd have to get help... and good help meant Harley. I hadn't seen him in ages.

[alex]

Selena

I opened my eyes when Ian got into the car. I leaned over and kissed his cheek gently. "What are you thinking?"

[Callie]

Ian

I sighed softly. "That I need to call up an old friend of mine."

[alex]

Selena

I hesitated slightly. "A... a friend that will help? Like, a good guy?"

ooc: New charrie ^^

SPOILER: Click to show

Name: Taylor Lauran
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Race: Psychic
Pic:
Personality: Emotional, stubborn, optimistic, quiet.
Bio: Taylor lives with her aunt in the city and she works 7 days a week just so that she can pay the bills. When Selena started working there they immediately clicked, especially when she found out that Selena was a werewolf. Despite being almost the same age, Selena is like Taylor's big sister. Though Selena has invited her to visit her house many times, Taylor was too shy too accept though.
Other: Her power is telepathy.

[Callie]

Ian

I nodded. "Well, the good guy part kind of depends on how you look at him," I said with a slight smile, thinking as I shifted the gears into drive. I was pretty sure Harley had moved here, and he owned a seedy little bar downtown now. Well, that was the last I'd heard. "He was there for everything, too, but he had the guts to march down to Will and tell him he was done with the stupid gang. He stayed for a while, but then he moved to around here. He didn't just run off like I did." And for that, at least, I had to admire Harley. Even if he was a jackass sometimes and he'd probably spend much of the time we were there hitting on Selena. Well, unless he'd changed, which I highly doubted.

[alex]

Selena

"As long as he helps, he's a good guy," I said with a nod as I rested my head on Ian's shoulder.

Name: Harley Belikov
Gender: Male
Age: 22 years old
Race: Witch
Pic:
Personality: Flirty, smooth, stubborn, easygoing, daring, sarcastic, fun-loving, outgoing, charismatic.
Bio: Harley grew up with his older brother; no one knows what happened to his parents, and he really has no idea, either, though he likes to make up all sorts of stories. It tends to be a different one every time, and no one has any idea which story is the truth, though all of them are far-fetched. When he was fifteen, Harley joined forces with the same group that Ian did later, making friends with Will, Theo, and the rest of the guys. That all stopped that night with the girl. Harley can still remember it, but it stays locked in a vault he tries not to open in the back of his mind. That was the day he got fed up with things and told Will he was leaving. In turn, Will told him you didn't leave this gang. It was family, now. There was a fight after that, and Harley proved himself by beating Will, but not killing him. Then he left London, going various other places in England, until he heard about his brother's death. Then Harley left for America, and he's been here ever since. He owns a club downtown wherever this place is. Half the time, Harley can't remember the name of the city he lives in.
Other: None.

Ian

I nodded slightly and stopped in front of the bar. A bodyguard, really? Oh. A VIP guy. How the hell did you have VIP at a bar? Then I looked up. Apparently it had evolved into a club since the last time I'd seen it. "Uh, we're here to see Harley Belikov," I told the guy carefully.
"And you are?"
"Ian Winters."
"And she is?"
"Selena Winters," I answered.
He scanned the list, then shook his head. "You're not on his list of people to see today. I'm sorry."
I sighed. "Just let me talk to him, please."
"No can do, Mr. Win - "
The door flew open. "Ian!" exclaimed a beaming Harley. "Come in, come in. It's been too long," he said affably. I looked at him warily, doubting the friendly act, as I knew I should. "Oh, this is Lance. Lance Vance. Poor bastard." He patted Lance on the back and grinned at me again. "But he's not relevant now, so come on in."

[alex]

Selena

I looked at the guy who, apparently, was Harley. He didn't seem so bad, maybe Ian had exaggerated.

[Callie]

Ian

I sighed softly and headed inside, following him as we made our way through the crowds. Eventually, we ended up in a tiny office. He gestured for us to sit down and he took a seat behind his desk. I sat down in the chair, which was actually really comfortable.
"I do believe introductions are necessary, first," he said, nodding at Selena and smiling at me. "What's your name, beautiful?"

[alex]

Selena

"Selena Winters," I replied, raising my eyebrow slightly.
