My Hockey Alpha Chapter 156

Stealth Mission

Nina

With the way that my leg was feeling, my journey across town was slow and painful. I didn’t seem to be healing anymore, since my wolf was too weak for some reason, so each step was agony. But I had to keep going. My friends were still out there somewhere and I needed to find the antidote and help them.

I stuck to narrow alleyways, darting between abandoned cars so as not to be seen. Not only did I have to worry about rogues, but I also had to worry about James now, and there was no knowing where he was right now. For all I knew, he was out here looking for me.

Eventually, I somehow made it to the outskirts of the campus. I cut through the woods, wincing as I limped over fallen trees and struggling to climb in and out of ravines, but by the time the sun started to get high in the sky, I made it.

I could see the hockey arena from here, as well as Tiffany’s pink Jeep. Just thinking about her made me want to vomit. I couldn’t help but wonder what the Crescents did with her body… But I couldn’t think about that right now, because it only brought me immense pain. Tiffany would have wanted me to do everything I could to get the antidote.

Since it was the middle of the afternoon, I didn’t see any rogues around. They must have been resting during the day, as they were stronger in the moonlight. This was a bit of a relief, but it didn’t mean that there weren’t any Crescents wandering around, either in their wolf forms or their human forms. I had to be cautious as I quickly made my way across the athletic field.

I was out in the open now. I pushed myself as fast as I could go, but I could only go so fast with my leg. By the time I made it halfway across the athletic field, beads of sweat were forming on my forehead just from the exertion that it took to keep myself upright.

Finally, however, I made it. I crouched behind Tiffany’s Jeep and peered around it as I looked for any Crescents. I didn’t see any, so I pushed through the pain in my leg and warily made my way into the hockey arena.

The arena was thankfully empty. I let out a sigh of relief and crouched behind the rink barrier as I made my way toward the door that would lead to the infirmary.
