Biography

Series 4

Alex walks into the cafe that Hal and Tom work at, but only the former is there, cleaning. She accidentally tracks in mud via her boots and apologizes, however, he tells her that it's okay due to the fact that she's juts given him another chore to perform. She seems to take a liking to Hal and tries to flirt with him by acting "boyish", but he seems less than interested. She later returns to find Tom at the cafe (with Hal hiding under the counter), she asks Tom to talk to Hal for her, seeming to think that the two of them really hit it off when she was in there earlier, and Tom agrees, arranging a date between Hal and Alex to which he and Allison tag along to make sure Hal isn't tempted to feed on Alex. They go to a museum and whilst inside, Alex allows Hal to kiss her, however, he merely sees the blood pulsating through her neck and runs away, leading her to believe that it's over between the two of them. Later, Tom convinces Hal to call her. (Puppy Love)

Alex meets Hal for their second date, apparently having given him a second chance, but the latter has recently had blood and acts inappropriately towards her, causing her to leave, angrily, not knowing why she bothered. It is later revealed that Cutler had people follow Hal and found him breaking bread with a human, leading to the kidnapping and killing of Alex by Cutler. He takes some of the blood from her body and feeds it to Hal, who is unaware, when he finds out, he is horrified, and locked in the storage cupboard along with Alex's mutilated body. To Hal's surprise, Alex is in the room... as a ghost. She is extremely annoyed with him and he explains to her what she is, he also mentions that she is able to "rent-a-ghost" like Annie and teleport out of the room. Alex succeeds in doing this and unlocks the door from the outside, Hal and Alex arrive just in time to find Tom, in his werewolf form, terrorizing the people at the club. Alex unlocks the door with a screwdriver, setting them free, meaning that she and Hal are left with the problem of a transformed Tom. (Making History)

Alex and Hal were able to lure Tom into the back of a van until sun-up and divert him away from any prying eyes. The three of them return to Honolulu Heights to find that Annie has returned and is devastated, explaining that Eve from the future appeared to her and took her through her corridor, telling Annie that she must kill Eve as a baby. The matter of the Old Ones having returned comes up and Tom reveals that he's been gathering materials to build a bomb, and so he and Hal head to the cafe to begin construction, leaving Alex with Annie. When they are left alone, Annie begins to teach Alex about some of her ghost abilities, such as moving objects using telekinesis and being able to rent-a-ghost. Soon enough, Cutler comes knocking at the door, but Alex nor Annie invite him in, and so he walks inside upon his own accord to kill Eve, burning up and practically melting as he does so. Alex stays out of the situation, scared, and Annie uses her telekinesis to make a stake fly from a shelf and into Cutler's back, after hesitating to save her baby. Alex and Hal later go back to the night club to collect Alex's body, however, when they are inside, mysterious Men in Grey walk inside ad steal the body away, confusing both Alex and Hal, the former of which was stared at by Mr. Rook, one of the men, who seems aware of her presence. Alex returns to the house with Annie, but when they are there, Tom sneaks in and takes Eve to the Old Ones, knowing they will keep her self. Hal is with them too, and as this transaction is being made, Annie, Alex by her side, bursts in yelling "Give me back my fucking baby!" Her and Alex use their ghost abilities to defeat some of the Old Ones and Annie ends up with Eve in her arms, as well as the bomb. Tom is taken outside by Milo and Annie tells Alex to rent-a-ghost out with Hal, who isn't a living thing. Alex does this and Annie detonates the bomb, in the same move killing the Old Ones, killing Eve, and completing her unfinished business, being able to pass over to the Purgatory with her baby. Alex, Tom and Hal return home where Hal is tied up and put on a blood detox. (The War Child)
