Chapter Fourteen
Some Shopping and Old Friends

I stared out into the city landscape, feeling free again. I hadn’t really been able to go out anywhere for awhile in fear that Pete’s… or should I say Patrick’s clan might find me and kidnap me. I looked around the scenery, smiling calmly. I felt at ease. Frankie gripped my hand, pointing to a building across the street. It was beautiful. A long sky scraper with a glass dome at the top and many windows. It looked slightly familiar, but I wasn’t sure why it did. Frankie suddenly spoke up.
“That’s where you’ve been living for the last few weeks.” He stated. I stared at it, shocked. That glass dome.. That was the one that Ryan kept breaking… well everyone kept breaking… I laughed calmly, staring at it as memories flooded back into my head. I quickly shook my head, beginning to miss my home away from home. I turned to the little shop on the other side of me, staring at some of the articles of clothing. Mikey surveyed me, then pointed to the store.
“Okay, time to check out clothes!” He declared. Frankie moaned as I laughed. It had been the sixth shop since we had started. We entered the small shop, glancing at all of the clothes. Frankie rolled his eyes as he glanced at each item. 
“None of these are you. You’ve never dressed like this.” He stated. I glanced at him, raising an eyebrow.
“Frankie, two things. One is that its not what the item is its how you wear it and two is that I’m slightly concerned as to how you know how I dress.” I teased. Frankie shrugged.
“I went to your school last year.” He said as if it were obvious. I nodded.
“Oh, okay that makes sense.” I said calmly, thumbing through the items again. I felt a sudden pair of arms around my waist, then something picking me up and running away. Frankie and Mikey leapt up, running after me. I tried to scream, but there was a hand over my mouth preventing me from doing anything. What the hell was going on?
“Stop!” I cried through the hand. Unfortunately it didn’t work. The words were too muffled. My captor or captors turned down an alley way suddenly. I felt a strange sense of glee knowing that they had made the wrong decision. Soon, the two boys who had been trying to rescue me had turned into their wolf form. I heard a noise as three wolves suddenly leapt out in front of me along with two vampires. I stared at the group curiously, still being held by someone. The two vampires looked oddly familiar. I pulled the hand away from my mouth.
“Karin? Cassie?” I asked. The two turned around, nodding.
“Yeah. We’re here for you Tay. Don’t worry” Cassie said calmly. Frankie suddenly transformed back, pissed.
“Don’t worry? You’re kidnapping her!” He snarled. Suddenly one of the wolves transformed, revealing herself as one of my friends, Katie. She snarled at him.
“Uh, excuse me? You’re the ones who kidnapped her in the first place. We’re just bringing her home!” She barked. Mikey suddenly transformed back into his human form, equally annoyed.
“No, we didn’t kidnap her. We’re babysitting her and hiding her from another clan.” He snarled. Another wolf transformed into my friend Cody. He glared at Mikey and Frankie. 
“Yeah, right. You’re just some fucked up creepers. Come on Tay. Lets go” He muttered. The last wolf left just stared at me with his bright blue eyes, wagging his tail. Another figure suddenly entered the alleyway. This time it was Gerard. He sighed.
“God, what have you gotten yourselves into now?” He snarled. He grabbed Cody’s shoulder. 
“Hey. You. She’s ours.” He growled. Cody glared at him.
“We had her first. She’s ours.” He snarled. I walked over to the other wolf as the fight broke loose, scratching him behind the ears.
“You’re saul, aren’t you?” I asked. Saul suddenly transformed back into a human, smirking.
“Yep!” He chirped. I quickly retracted my hands.
“Cause that’s not creepy at all!” I snarled. Saul laughed, then held out his arms. I sighed, accepting the hug and letting him win this time. Saul grinned happily, his dog-like fangs showing. 
“They don’t get it do they?” He asked. I cocked my head to one side.
“Get what?” I asked. Saul laughed to himself.
“Well, Frankie, Mikey and Gerard were protecting you, clearly. And we went out to save you, but you were already okay. So now they’re going to figure that out but at the moment they have no clue as to what was going on” He explained. I laughed, nodding. The group of arguing men and women stared at us, then at each other obviously hearing what Saul had said.
“You mean you were-” Katie started.
“And you were-” Mikey interrupted
“But we-” Cody said quickly.
“And we-” Frankie added. Soon the group broke into laughter.
“Oh, I get it. Okay. Wow.” Gerard said calmly. The group exchanged glances as they realized what was going on. As the group was talking, I felt someone take my hand.
“Shhh… come on.” The voice muttered. I turned around but only saw the hand sticking out from the wall. I looked around quietly, then stared back at the wall while everyone was distracted.
“Why should I?” I snarled. The voice laughed.
“Because. If you don’t, Patrick’s clan is going to kidnap you. I’m here by orders of your boyfriend to stop it.” The voice stated. I recognized it as a man’s. I rolled my eyes.
“Yeah, like they’d attack when I- Hey!” I yelped as I was suddenly pulled through the wall as if I were merely a ghost. The man covered my mouth, dragging me backwards. I began kicking, not sure what was going on. I felt myself being dragged into a car, then I felt the revving of the engine, then there was a moment of peace. I sighed, looking at the figure who sat beside me. He smirked, flicking his dark black and blue hair as his eyes turned back from their previous white to a normal blue colour.
“Evening. You’re vampy boy friends sent me after you.” He stated. I raised an eyebrow.
“But I’m supposed to stay with Gerard’s pack for awhile to keep myself hidden from Patrick.” I stated. A voice came from the front of the car.
“Yeah, but did they tell you that they took you without permission?” The voice asked. The man next to me laughed as my expression turned to shock.
“Oh, don’t worry. That’s Ryan.” He stated. I cocked my head to one side.
“Ryan?” I asked. The man in the front seat spoke up.
“No, not your Ryan. I’m a different Ryan. I’m more of a, well, what Josh is too.” He stated. I looked over at the other guy who simply waved.
“Hey! My name is Josh Ramsay. I like long walks on the beach and occasionally enjoy a good hot chocolate. I am a vampiric mercenary.” He said calmly, then poked the driver, “This is Ryan Reynolds. He’s a werewolf, and a mercenary as well. We kind of work together. We lost the rest of our packs and clans so this is pretty much the only way we can survive now a days.” 
Ryan glared back at Josh for a split second after he poked him, then turned back to driving.
“I swear, if you poke me again your finger is going to go up your ass.” He snarled. Josh burst out into laughter. I just eyed the two, questioning whether Ryan had been joking or serious. Josh sighed, leaning back into the seat as he began to play with some random pistol.
“Yeah. Well, I have the gun.” Josh taunted. Ryan rolled his eyes.
“Yes, but I have the wheel of the car, you dumb ass” He said calmly, then pulled into a parking space outside of the hotel. I looked up at it recognizing it as my previous home for the last few weeks. Josh hoisted me up over his shoulder as soon as we were out of the car. Ryan sighed, pulling my skirt down a bit. I glared at Josh.
“What’s that for?” I asked.
“He likes to show off his prize to the world. It’s creepy, really” Ryan stated. I sighed. These mercenaries were really starting to get annoying… well at least the one with me over his shoulder.
