came running down the stairs after the suit case, “what’s this?”, she yelled to Athena who stopped chewing her steak mid-way in, “a suit case”, Athena said, Atalanta laughed a humorless laugh “I know it’s yours Athena”, she said after. “So what”. Athena’s eye narrowed and Atalanta flinched like she was in pain, Athena went on “I”m not a little girl Atalanta, I do what I do”, well, it’s scary what she does. Atalanta wasn’t giving up “what do you do exactly with all of this?”, she asked waving at the suit case like a lunatic, “I”m a hunter”, Athena said easily and walked up to the suit case and took a gun out, the boys stopped eating and looked up, not knowing what to say. “Let me explain”, Athena said, “I was training one day and the Legend came down to me, she told me what I had to do, not only Legend but some of the others too”, Athena didn’t name the others “they said I needed to become a hunter, the leaches were getting the children in our village and the village next. I didn’t want to become one, but I thought of Jaya and her children, and thought I had no choice, not even that Legend would give me one, I had the right amount of training and knew what to do. Since then I had been traveling”, she said. Ceto walked up closer to her, “I thought you just left us, I thought you didn’t love us any more”, she said this with little sobs, Athena took her in and hugged her, “I would never do that, I love you guys more than any thing”, she said, the boys were looking away, but I couldn’t pull my self from that unusual sight. Atalanta joined them, later on. Athena’s face was hidden, but when she backed away from the embrace she face was still the hard, cold featured face as always, “Greek pack meeting”, she said and they girls followed her outside.

When they came in, Athena wasn’t there, and then I noticed she had taken the suit case with her. The truck was gone. Ceto left shortly after, then Atalanta. They had all gone separate ways.

It was evening and none of the girls were back. There was a howl coming in from the forest, I didn’t think much of it, it was just a wolf, but the boys went out to check, I followed after them. I heard trees break, foot steps coming closer, and closer. We were at the edge of the forest, the wolf came up. The wolf was to big for a normal wolf, it had to be a were wolf, was it Atalanta? Ceto? Athena? It was none of those. It had a bag in it’s mouth, it dropped it off and ran with amazing speed. The boys weren’t sure what to do, we waited for the Purple eyed pack to come back.

Atalanta was back a hour later from when the wolf came. The boys told her about it and she went out to investigate. She took the bag and opened it with out thinking twice, inside was a box, and another, but this one had a note.
“Dear, Athena and Atlanta,
Inside this box holds the answers to your fears,
From, your worst enemy.”, Atalanta dropped the note. We waited in the kitchen, we waited until twelve.

Athena walked in with a curious, yet worried look on her face, “what’s wrong Atalanta?”, she asked before she even saw Atalanta’s face. Atalanta took Athena’s arm and stormed away, we all followed sheepishly behind no knowing if we should go or stay.
ATALANTA.

Athena had the note in her hand, after she had finished reading it she took the bag and opened it, not waiting for second thoughts, the stony look on her face was hiding her real expression, fear. I guessed that she have had no need for this feeling in a long time, Athena never cared what happened to herself, only about her family, for the past few years her family hadn’t been there. I poked my head to see what was in the bag, it was dark and Athena’s head was blocking my view.

I didn’t even know if I wanted to see what was in the bag, so instead, to see if I should be worried or not, I looked at Athena’s expression. I got my answer soon enough, it was only a flicker of emotion, but it was enough to let me know. That slightest flicker was, sadness, regret, anger, every thing wrapped into one. Horrible, that was the word I got from her emotions. The thing in the bag, what ever it was, will be horrible.

Athena lifted the things out of the bag. A chain came up first, followed by a mess of purple and yellow, orange, green and red. It was my purple heart locket, I lifted my hand to my neck, no doubt my locket was there, Athena had hers on too. The locket had a warrior bracelet wrapped around it. “Oh no”, I gasped, Athenas grip on the locket tightened, like she wanted to break it.

We, Athena and I, took the note and began searching it for clues of who did this, who could possibly kill one of ours. A Greek! impossible. We had searched and searched for clues, but all we could find was anger. How? How could they do this? Who was it? I sent to Athena.
Their playing with our minds, they want us to be scared, they want us to be hurt. Athena had sent back
but, why would they do this?
No, twin, the question is, who would do this.
I looked at Athena, the locket was slipping trough her fingers, she snapped out of her gaze and took the locket in a fist. I took Athena’s arm and led her to our room.

“How! How could this happen? They think they can fool us! they think they can hurt me!”, Athena growled, “it’s a mind trick, who ever did it was foolin with us, it’s over”, Ceto said in a calming voice, Athena stared at her, fire in her eyes “I don’t care why they did it, I’m gonna find them and their gonna pay!”, she yelled again, it felt weird, having Athena so angry, what did those years alone do to her. She is not the same, she is not my twin. “Athena cool down, it’s ok”, I cooed, Athena now turned to me, I was sitting on the bed leaning against the wall, “why? This is not the time to ‘cool down”, she mocked me, she seriously mocked me, “we need to find them and fight!”, she said. I was tired of this stupid angry Athena, I wanted the old, down to earth, calm one back. I wanted the glue that helped us stick together back, not the fire to burn and spread us apart. “I sick of this! I’m sick of you! will you stop with the cruel, mean Athena! for god sakes! I want my Twin, not this!”, I yelled and stuck my finger at her. It hurt, I felt pain in my heart, like really bad heart burn. “Why? Why am I not good enough?”, Athena whispered, I walked up and hugged her, “my twin was good enough”, I said then sent her, but your not my twin, we are not WE.
Athena hugged me back.

The next day came. Athena and I walked down stairs together to see the boys pack (and Sarah) sitting watching T.V. once they heard us coming down stairs they all looked over with curious eyes. We were greeted by hey’s, hi’s, and what’s up’s. We both said “Hey”, at the exact same time, like we practiced it or some thing. I smiled, We smiled, knowing that everything was going to turn out right. Rowan got up, “hey, can I talk to you”, he asked, Athena said “sure”, than slipped away from my side.

I walked down stairs and sat on the floor next to Kole. I looked for Ceto, she wasn’t in the room this morning so I thought she snuck down here, but I guess not “where’s Ceto?’, I asked, the boys looked around like that would help, if she wasn’t there two seconds ago why would she be there now. “I dunno”, Josh said. She’s probably out hunting, I hate it when she leaves for days with out telling me, but I can’t do anything about it. We are just Purple eyes. Kole wrapped his arms around me and I rested my on his arm. We when first met I hardly noticed him, after he was all I noticed, now I’m only thinking about Athena.

Athena Walked in as if she heard her name in my head and knew she was called. I got up,
what happened? I asked,
we talked, and you know, what ever.
Your horrible, are you seriously keeping it a secret?
You know I don’t like gossip
well I do! and it’s not gossip if it’s true
yeah it is. Athena looked away letting me know to drop the topic, but we were smiling. I walked over to her side, “I think, we should go out today”, I said getting more girly with every word. I would say what I was really thinking, but Athena already knew, what I was really saying was “I think we should talk”. “yeah sure that’d be a great Idea”.

SARAH.

I watched as Athena and Atalanta had a what I like to call “silent conversation”, they just look at each other, but it seems like their actually talking, which if kinda weird, but it does go with the whole “twins, wolves, amazingly powerful” thing they got going on. I can’t believe Athena actually smiled, I didn’t see it, but I saw her cheeks go up. Hanging around here was getting weirder and weirder every day. And I was getting curious.

The Purple eyes were all gone, so I used this as a opportunity. “Hey Rowan, do you guys have a computer?”, I asked, A wry smile flashed across his face “we used to, but then
