So, this is a fairly random question but...

In Season 2, Bennett is a hunter with the Argents. He was at Beacon Hills High School in 2006 (the year after the Hale fire, I think?) So, pure speculation, but how do we think he became a hunter? It's never explained or touched upon -- the fact that he's a hunter is barely (if ever) mentioned after his death. And since he doesn't appear to be an Argent himself, it opens up some questions.

Personally, I'm theorizing that Kate recruited him around the time of the Hale fire and he only survived Peter's wrath because he, like Derek, was in school at the time of the blaze. I'm hopeful we'll find out more about Kate's activities when she was in Beacon Hills the first time this season.
