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.
