Hey guys! This is my spin-off thingy for my fic 'The Hounds Of Hell Are Getting Closer' as promised! I will be bringing in aspects of all of my stories to hopefully make this into some sort of mecha fic! I really hope you enjoy and maybe you'll even pick up a few things from my other fics :) Stay gold!
AGES:
Ashlee-19
Derek-22
Scott, Stiles, Allison, Lydia, Boyd, Isaac, Erica etc-17
Ashlee McCall is Scott's older sister. She left Beacon Hills at age 18 is go to art school. She's returned after 1 year to live with her family in her hometown again. Will follow tv show but not exactly, readers of my other fics know how I love to stir things up and come up with my own ideas :) Still deciding weither to actually put in season 2 or not, I don't really like it. Starts at episode 3-4ish, Scott's already been turned. Please review, I love to know what you think and if you have any input, ideas or comments on where I could take this then that's all welcome as well :)
I scream out as teeth tear through my skin.
"Get off!" I cry out, kicking out at the huge beast on me. There's tears streaming down my cheeks. I'm in so much pain. I can feel the blood flowing from my side, dark spots enveloping my vision. I cry out in pain one more time before letting the darkness take me.
..
My head hurts, it's spinning, i'm dizzy. I can hear voices..faint, confusing. My eyes strain to open, my body still sore and stiff from being attacked by some vicious animal last night. When I can finally force my heavy eyelids open, I look down at my injuiries. I reach for them. I scream when someone, a stranger, grabs my hand.
"Let me go!" I yell, pulling away from him.
"Don't touch it" he says, letting me go. I try to get up but i'm too sore.
"Who are you? Why am I here? Where am I?" I ask, feeling my anxiety building.
"Calm down!" the older dark-haired, green-eyed man snaps. I feel myself recoil from his harsh tone.
"Did you kidnap me?" I ask fearfully.
"No" he says.
"Then who the fuck are you?!" I yell, getting more angry and more scared.
"Derek?! What are you doing?!" I hear a familiar voice yell. I can't put into words the amount of relief that washes over me when my younger brother steps in the run-down room. "Ash?!" he says, rushing to my side in the blink of an eye. His hands hover over the wound on my side. "What did this to you?" he asks me softly, cupping my face in his hands.
"I-I don't know" I say, relaxing into his touch.
"You know what did it" the older guy says, looking at Scott, not me.
"Who the hell is that and where are we?" I ask Scott in fear.
"We're safe, I promise" he assures me. I glance nervously at the other guy. "His name is Derek, Derek Hale. He's been helping me, he's going to help you as well" Scott says.
"Helping with what? Scott, what's going on?" I ask, the fear still clear in my voice.
"Alot has changed since you've been gone" Scott says, his eyes turning yellow. I jump away from him, yanking at my wound. I hiss in pain. Scott reaches for me but I shake my head.
"Get away from me" I whisper. This isn't my brother..this is something else.
"Ash-" 'Scott' tries.
"Don't touch me" I flinch away from his outstretched hand. He recoils, both males watching me closely. I squeeze my eyes shut and try to force myself to wake up from this nightmare. I feel my breathing start to pick-up.
"What is she doing?" the older guy..Derek, asks. My hands start to shake but I keep my eyes squeezed shut. Wake up.
"She's having a panic attack" 'Scott' says, worry in his tone. "Ash, please calm down" he says, I can hear him moving so he's in front of me. I ignore him. "Ash, please" he pleads. I can feel the burning in my lungs. Why won't I wake up?
"Wake up" I whisper.
"This isn't a dream, Ash, please calm down" my 'brother' begs. "Open your eyes, look, it's me. It's Scott" I feel anger corse through me.
"You're not my brother!" I yell, eyes flying open, something snapping inside of me. Derek grabs 'Scott' and rips him away from me. He jumps in front of me and growls in my face. Instead of teeth, he has fangs..I need to wake up, right now. His eyes shine blue, glow, like 'Scott's' were. This sends me into a panic..why haven't I woken up yet?! My breathing spirals out of control and it feels like no air is getting into my lungs. It burns and my chest is tight, as is my throat. I feel myself blacking out again.
"What did you do?!" 'Scott' snarls, fangs out as well, at the older man. I feel my eyes closing slowly, the hand clutching at my beating heart softening and falling to my side. "Ash!" I hear 'Scott' shout, running to my side. I've passed out before he can lay a single finger on me.
..
I wake up, covered in sweat. I sigh..it was just a dream. I pull myself out of bed and stretch. I hear banging coming from Scott's room.
"Scott?" I call out, poking my head into the hallway. More banging. I go to his room, opening the door. "Scott-" my eyes widen when the guy..Derek, from my dream is in Scott's face. They both turn to me, Derek's eyes glowing blue and Scott's glowling yellow. It wasn't a dream.
"Ash, wait" Scott says, coming towards me slowly. He blinks and his eyes are chocolate brown again. I'm frozen on the spot. "Are you okay?" he asks. I nod, unable to form words..this really is my brother. "Listen, I know you have alot of questions but-" I don't even let him finish his sentence. I turn on my heel and take off down the stairs.
"We have to go after her!" the Derek guy yells. This pushes me to run faster..much, much faster. Everything's a blur as I sped through the woods. My breathing is all over the place. When i'm thrown to the ground, I panic.
"Get off me!" I cry, tears streaming down my face. This is all too familiar..it's like the night I was attacked by that animal. The guy pinning me down is a little animal himself.
"Stop" he orders, eyes that should be green are glowing blue again.
"Scott!" I yell out for my brother..my real brother. The one that can never make it to first line but always gives 130%. The one that would call me when I got home from art school and cheer me up when I found out I failed an essay. The one that would smile softly and tightly hug his big sister when she finally came home.
"Derek! Get off her!" Scott yells, charging at the guy holding me down. The second his weight is off me, I take off again.
"I'm trying to stop her! She's newly bitten, she could kill someone!" Derek scowls Scott, the two coming after me again. How I heard them..I have no idea. But I know i'm not going to kill anyone..i'm more worried about them killing me.
"Please! Leave me alone!" I yell out to the two males quickly catching up to me.
"Ash, stop!" Scott pleads. I look ahead and see a pair of blazing red eyes amoung the trees..those eyes..the same as last night. All this is scaring me. I skid to a stop and run the other way, I have to get away from those eyes.
"It's the alpha" Derek growls and soon he's gone, in the very direction of the red eyes.
"Derek, don't!" I hear Scott yell. I don't stop running though, I keep running, I need to get to some place that makes sense. Because right now..nothing makes any sense! "Damn!" I hear him coming after me again. I push myself as hard as I can, trying to get ahead of him so I can hide without him seeing. I see a wooden door, leading into the ground? That'll have to do. I quickly get in, closing the doors quietly behind me. I sink inside..it's a room, huge tree roots filling half of it. I wiggle amoungst the roots, hiding myself completely. I hear Scott's footsteps slow. "Ashlee? Please, come out. We won't hurt you" he says, walking slowly. I have to hold back a sob. What the hell is going on with my brother? He's coming closer to the doors..if he comes down here, he'll most probably find him. I hear the other guy's footsteps, quick, running towards Scott.
"Did you find her?" Derek asks him, his voice frantic.
"No-"
"We need to move, the hunters are out here"
"I'm not leaving her!"
"She's still human, she'll be fine! We need to go, now!" Derek yells.
"Derek, no-" I hear him dragging Scott away. "Derek, get off!" I hear Derek growl at him and soon they're gone. Something attacks my nose..the stench of blood. And it's not Scott's..it's Derek's. How do I even know that? What the hell is happening to me?! What the hell's happening to my brother?! Who the hell is Derek?! I can feel my breathing picking up again. I can't keep doing this..I can't keep having attacks. The doctors have told me how bad it is for me.
"P-Please..calm down..calm d-down" I beg myself. I hear other people approaching. Are these the hunters Derek was talking about?
"Come on out!" a woman calls out. A hear a gun cock and then it's fired. I jump in fear. "Come on!"
"Kate!" a man scowls. "Check the cellar" he orders. No. No, no, no! The door opens and I tense up. I hear her gun cock again.
"Come on out puppy" she says, voice dripping with hatred. She comes to stand in front of where i'm hiding.
"P-Please" I beg. Her gun instantly aims at me. "Don't hurt me" I whimper.
"Who are you?" she asks.
"I'm Ashlee, please don't kill me"
"Come out, nice and slow" I do as the woman says. I slowly come out of my hiding place, on shaky legs. Something's thrown in my face. I cough and wipe my hand down my face.
"What are you doing?" I ask her. I look down at my hands to see a purple powder. She studies me for a few seconds.
"Nothing" she says, lowering her gun. She holds her hand out to me, her posture softening. "It's okay, I won't hurt you" she says. That's what Scott said. I carefully take her hand. She leads me back up to where there is another man, the one I heard before.
"Who's this?" he asks.
"Her name's Ashlee, she's fine" the guy's posture softens as well.
"Why are you out here?" he asks me softly. I can't tell them the truth..I was chsed by my brother and some guy, they both have fangs and glowing eyes. They're both looking at me expectantly.
"My dog..she ran away, I was looking for her. I was down there when I heard a gun..your gun" I say, looking over at Kate.
"I'm sorry" Kate says. "I didn't mean to scare you"
"Why do you have a gun?" I ask her, a little fearfully.
"We were hunting..a mountain lion" she says. I nod.
"Would you like a ride home?" the man asks. I look at him a little skeptically..I don't know thses people. "My name is Chris Argent, this is my sister, Kate"
"Sweetie, let us drive you home" Kate says.
"I can walk" I say. I don't really want to go home..but I don't know where to go.
"No, you are far too pretty to be walking around here at night. Come on" Kate says, holding her hand out again. I smile at little at the compliment and take her hand. "I'm sure your dog will come home" she smiles at me softly. I nod and follow them back to their car. I give them directions to my house..I don't have anywhere else to go. I thank the siblings.
"Be careful in those woods, you never know what could be lurking" Chris says. I nod.
"Luckily we have hunters like you to keep us safe" I smile. They both smile and nod before leaving. I let out a long breath. I'm tired, I want to sleep but I don't think I can face Scott. I'm still extremely confused. I don't know if that Scott is really my brother. I don't really know who that Derek guy is. I'm not sure if that was a dream or if i'm still dreaming now. My side is aching, the blood has dried but i'm going to have to get it properly looked at. I use the spare key to get inside. Nobody's home, it's just me. I sigh in relief and tramp up to my room. I change my shirt from a singlet, careful of the tear in my side. I throw on pajama shorts and slip into bed. I feel frustrated and confused tears slip from my eyes, wetting my pillow. I jolt up in bed when my window slides open.
"I'm not going to hurt you" comes the Derek guy's voice.
"I've heard that before" I say, not able to actually to see him. I hear him step forward and I crawl back until my back hits the wall, pain flaring up my side. I hiss in pain and he lurches forward. I yelp in suprise when his hand comes to my side. "N-no"
"I'm not going to hurt you" he repeats, a little annoyance coming into his voice.
"Where's my brother?" I ask him as he inspects my wound. I'm too tired and too sore to fight him again. He's far stronger than me..i'd only hurt myself.
"He's at my house. I told him to stay put"
"Why would you do that?" I ask him. Derek's eyes flicker up to mine for a second before coming to my side again.
"We don't want to scare you away again" he says. I get angry at that, pushing the older man away from me. Why hadn't I already done that? Why don't I just call the Shrieff and get him to shoot this guy?
"If you didn't want to scare me you shouldn't have chased me and tackled me to the ground!" I yell at him. He opens his mouth but I cut him off. "Actually, you wouldn't have chased me at all and my brother and you wouldn't have glowing eyes and fangs!" I shout at him, getting out of bed.
"If you let us explain-"
"Explain what?! That you and my brother are monsters?!" I yell, feeling my anger shooting through the roof. Derek grabs me, dragging me to the other side of the room. "No, please-" I don't want to be touched or dragged or chased, nothing.
"Look" he says, pointing to my mirror. I look up and jump back at what I see.
"What the hell" I breath out.
"You're one of us now" Derek tells me.
"No" I shake my head. My eyes..like Scott's, they're glowing yellow.
"Yes" Derek says, letting me go.
"I-I..what the hell is going on?" I ask. "I have no clue as to what is happening and-and i'm confused and scared and I want my brother to come home and-" i'm starting to breakdown, my emotions getting the best of me.
"Hey, hey" Derek says. I look at him with tear-filled eyes. "Come with me. Scott and I will explain everything"
"I'm not going anywhere with you" I say.
"Why not?" he asks.
"I don't know you. I don't even know if that's my brother"
"Why haven't you thrown me out yet then?" Derek asks.
"Because you're 10x stronger than I am. I don't favour being murdered" I say.
"That's your brother. And he's worried about you. You are one of us now, you're with us, you're with me" Derek says, his voice softer.
"What does that mean? What am I? What are we?" I ask.
"We'll explain everything, just come with me-"
"No. I'm not leaving this room until you tell me what the hell I am" I object.
"Your Mum will be home soon. You're coming with me, now" he says, grabbing my arm.
"Derek, let me go" I say. I hear Mum's car pull up.
"Sorry" he sighs. Before I can ask why, he throws a hand over my mouth and i'm being dragged out the window. I thrash around in his grip, fear corsing through me. "Stop struggling" he says, dragging me back into the woods. Not here, not again.
"No!" I yell againist his hand.
"I'm taking you to my house, Scott's there" he tells me. I elbow him in the side and he drops me. I turn to see his angry eyes. I try to run again..try. "Sorry" he says again before I feel something hit my head, knocking me unconcious.
