Hello everyone!
Ok, I know I said I would post this story before Christmas, but life happens.
So, anyway, this is my new Teen Wolf story to kill time till season 3 hits.
I really hope everyone enjoys this one as mush as they loved Blown away.
As always, I don't own anything.
Just Amber, and some of the plot that is not part of the show.
Enjoy!
A/N: I read my first four chapters on line and realized it was hard to tell when I jumped forward in time, so, this ~.~ is now my little filler so everyone knows I'm skipping forward!
Watching in the mirror as fur shrunk back into my skin, neon green eyes fading back to a plain brown. Rolling my shoulders as bones popped into place.
"Well that was a waste of time."
Tucking a brunette curl behind my ear as I could hear my brother waking up.
Sighing as I pulled my uniform on, throwing on some jeans as well, and walked into his room, smirking as he looked confused at a noise outside.
"What's wrong Amber?"
"Nothing Scott, just heard a weird noise."
"I'll check it out."
Nodding I followed behind him as we made our way downstairs. Smiling at the familiar smell that struck my senses.
And enter Stiles in 3...2...1
As if on cue Stiles dropped upside down on our patio.
Laughing as Scott almost hit Stiles with the baseball bat he was carrying.
"Stiles what the hell are you doing?"
"You weren't answering your phone!"
Taking a glance at the bat, causing me to laugh harder at the teens.
"Why do you have a bat?"
"I thought you where a predator."
Shaking my head I reached up and helped Stiles back on his feet.
"I can see you have something exciting to tell Scott so I'm going back inside. I only got home an hour ago."
Stiles nodded in excitement as I wondered back into the house, staying by the door as he explained that some joggers found half of a body.
"To follow or not, THAT is the question."
Sighing I shrugged out of my uniform slipping into my form and hopping on the back of Stile's Jeep. Keeping still and quiet as they pulled up to the Beacon Hills Preserve.
This is not good.
Shaking my fur covered head silently walking threw the woods, sniffing for anything unusual.
Hearing a growl I turned around and saw a creature hunched over looking at me with glowing red eyes.
"I don't care what you are, but leave me alone."
As if to challenge me the creature charged, arching back I waited for it to get closer. Taking a swipe at it as it got closer, only for it to turn and knock me several feet threw the air and into a tree. Hissing I glared at it as I struggled to my feet. Finally it snorted at me and walked away.
Whatever that thing was, it's going to cause trouble I can feel it.
Deciding against following the creature I headed back to the house, sighing as one of my paws began to form blisters from the walk.
Jumping up to the windowsill of my room, gently changing back and pulling on a shirt right when Scott opened my door.
"Amber?"
"What is it Scott?"
"Can you, umm, help me with something?"
Sighing I nodded and followed him into the bathroom, where he pulled up his shirt revealing a large bite mark.
"What the hell happened?"
"I was attacked, I think by a wolf."
No, by that THING that tried to attack me.
Taking a deep breath I patched up his side, telling him to get some sleep.
Watching him walk into his room before focusing on my now bleeding hand.
"So much for our quiet little town."
Sighing I wrapped my hand before walking over and going to bed.
~.~
"Amber?"
Groaning I rolled over seeing Scott looking apologetically at me.
"What Scott? It's my day off, go away."
"I know, but can you patch me up before school?"
Sighing I slowly got out of bed, glaring at my brother before patching his side up, that looked a lot better than it did yesterday.
"There, now I'm going back to bed. Need me, call me."
He smiled and thanked me before letting me fall back asleep.
A few short hours later I was up and outside taking a run. Seeing the preserve sign I figured running through there would be safer, and maybe help me find out who attacked me.
Slowing to a walk, spotting a car sitting outside the Hale house.
"That's supposed to be empty."
Annoyed that some punk kids had the nerve to vandalize the house that my best friend used to live in so long ago, I walked right up to the front door about to knock when a voice interrupted me.
"Amber?"
Turning to my right, my heart stopped at the sight of Derek Hale, my best friend some ten years ago.
"Oh lord, Derek?"
He smirked at me as I walked over to him.
"Wow, I haven't seen you in years."
"Years have been good to you."
I laughed at my old friend, gently wrapping my arms around his neck.
"I missed you."
Feeling him relax and wrap his arms around my waist.
"I missed you too fire."
I laughed pulling back keeping my hands by his neck, surprised to see a rare smile on his strong features, his blue grey eyes focused on me like they used to when we were younger.
"What are you doing back in town?"
At that I could feel his muscles tensing.
"What happened?"
He sighed, looking past me before focusing back on me.
"Someone killed Laura."
"What?"
He nodded, about to move away till I pulled him to me again.
"I am so sorry Derek."
He nodded, easing me off of him.
"What happened?"
"I don't know yet."
Nodding I took a step back, seeing the look in his eyes.
"Why don't we go get coffee sometime? Catch up?"
He smirked and nodded.
"Can I give you a ride?"
I nodded as we walked over to his back camero.
"Nice car."
He scoffed and slid into the drivers seat.
Rolling my eyes as I slid into the black leather seat.
"You know you can talk to me about anything Derek."
"Quiet fire."
Rolling my eyes as he pulled up to my moms house.
"Still living with your mom?"
"My job doesn't pay enough to make a living off of."
He tilted his head with a curious look in his eyes.
"And what is it that you do now?"
I sighed quickly looking away.
"That's none of your business, Derek."
He growled at me as I hissed in return, quickly reminding him I had just as short of a temper as he had.
"Coffee, tomorrow, ten o'clock?"
He smirked as I climbed out of his car looking at him waiting for an answer.
"Alright."
Grinning I nodded before closing the door and walking up to my house. Turning slightly, smiling when I noticed he was waiting for me to go inside before taking off.
Always the protective one.
~.~
"Amber!"
Sighing I finished tying the straps of my halter top before walking downstairs seeing an excited Scott.
"Yes little brother, what is it?"
"I made first line."
I grinned and hugged him.
"Congrats."
"And I have a date with the new girl at school."
"Congrats again, but I got to go, my boss will kill me if I'm late."
He sighed looking at my outfit.
"Let me walk you or something, I don't like you going by yourself."
Laughing I hugged him tighter.
"I love you bro, but save the over protectiveness for the girlfriend."
He nodded before letting me go to drive to work.
Pulling up to the dark brick building before saying a silent prayer, begging for an easy night, before climbing out of my car.
So?
Sound good?
