Chapter One- The body
Laying on my bed as sad as can be in my basketball shorts and my black hoodie. I sighed my long brown hair blowing in the air as the air from my mouth hit it. I grunted when my door opened and Scott opened my door and sighed before clearing his throat. I sat up slowly and grunted in annoyance. Okay, I know you're confused. My girlfriend of four years (Lydia)just broke up with me after admitting that she's been seeing who used to be my best friend. Jackson Whittemore.
"Why won't you just let me be," I mumbled pushing some of my brown hair back only to have it fall back into my face putting the hood that was on my hoodie back on my head.
"...I heard a noise... I'm going to go check it out. Come with me?" Scott lowered the bat that he was holding a little.
I didn't answer him. I just stood up feeling the wasted liquor on the ground. He sighed before walking down the stairs. I sat on the banister and started sliding down. Then, I heard a noise. We opened the front door as Stiles dropped down causing me to slightly jump. I'm mentally and physically numb to the world for the rest of my life. Scott screamed loud swinging back the bat almost hitting me in the face them Stiles screamed trying to let Scott know that it was just him.
"Stiles, what the hell are you doing here?" I sighed moving a piece of hair out of my face.
"Look, I know it's late but, you gotta hear this. I saw my dad leave twenty minutes ago. Dispatch called. They're bringing in every officer in the Beacon department. Even state police" Stiles said landing on his feet getting down from hanging on whatever that was.
"Umm..." I said shrugging my shoulders.
"Two joggers found a body in the woods." Stiles crossed his arms nodding his head.
"And... what does that have to do with us?" I rolled my eyes. At this point, I was done talking. This is as far as I would usually talk.
"A dead body?" Scott asked. What...?
"No, a body of water- Yes dumba** a dead body," Stiles answered sarcastically. We wouldn't know that he was okay and fine with life if he didn't use it.
"You mean like murdered?" Scott asked again. This time I looked at him shaking my head at him. I wanted to laugh but, I haven't smiled or laughed since dad left. For at least a year I drank liquor, did drugs and just went crazy until Lydia... I shook my head looking down zoning back in just to hear that we're going in the woods to look for a body. I decided to just throw on my Nike shoes and sat in the backseat of Stiles' car while we waited for Scott.
"So... How have you been Brendan?" Stiles turned to me tapping his steering wheel once he looked at my appearance. I shrugged and raised my brow at him then he nodded.
"Right...okay then." He started the car and sighed and whispered to Scott, "Finally. The conversation was starting to get awkward."
"I doubt that there were many words exchanged." Scott scoffed and I mentally nodded. He already knew.
"That's why it was awkward." Stiles began driving down the street. I started to stare out of the window. I wonder why life seriously hates me right now.
In the woods
"Are we seriously doing this?" Scott asked.
"You're the one always b*tching about nothing happening in this town," Stiles spoke suddenly holding a flashlight. He had a point where he is always b*tching that nothing ever happens in this town. According to him it was the most boring town in history. I snapped out of my train of thought when I was suddenly yanked to the ground. I huffed then Stiles shushed me and I looked up to see cops walking around with flashlights then, just then Stiles pulled me up and began to run while I was confused for a moment then snatched my hand away while he still ran. Scott caught up to me because I stopped.
¨Stiles wait up!¨ Scott huffed but, I seen the cop up ahead so, I grabbed Scott and we both stood there behind the tree. Gosh Scott can be so slow sometimes. I put my finger to my lips and watched what was going on from behind the tree.
¨Hold on, Hold on. This little delinquent belongs to me." Mr. Stilinski spoke shooing the other cop and the K-9 away.
¨Hey dad, how´s it going?" Stiles asked.
¨So do you listen to all my calls?¨ Mr. Stilinski asked.
¨No.¨ Stiles replied cueing the dad look that had shown that Mr Stilinski didn´t believe him. ¨Not the boring ones.¨
¨Mhmm and where is your partner in crime because... I know that Brendan wouldn´t do anything stupid like this.¨ Stiles´ dad said. Oh how wrong you were... sadly.
¨Who Scott? Oh, he´s just at home. He wanted to get a good night´s rest in for tryouts tomorrow.¨ Stiles spoke. ¨It´s just me... In the woods... alone.¨
Mr. Stilinski nodded not believing him looking around with the use of his flashlight. ¨Scott you out there?" He looked around some more. Glad someone actually thinks highly of me to know that I wouldn´t be out here... even if they´re 100% wrong.
¨Scott?!¨ He sighed and turned his attention back to Stiles. ¨I´m gonna walk you back to your car and you and I are going to have a little talk about invasion of privacy.¨ As Stiles and Mr. Stilinski disappeared Scott swore under his breath and we both started walking the other direction. I sighed as it started to drizzle rain. I threw my hood on.
¨He was our ride.¨ Scott huffed as he kept walking. I heard rustling coming from in front of us. I paused for a second and raised a brow wondering if it was just another cop. I rolled my eyes until I eventually noticed that Scott was also looking in that direction but, he actually looked scared. Suddenly a herd of deer came running right at us.
¨Brendan duck!¨ Scott yelled hitting the ground guarding his face. I was going to do the same even though I´m not in a panic. I deer hit me and knocked me to my side causing me to roll close to this hill. I heard Scott yell my name but, it sounded far away. I softly groaned and turned my head then my eyes slightly widened once I seen a girl with brown hair... her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she only had half of her body. Oh my gosh... I found the other half of the body. I noticed that my hair was soggy. I touched it with my fingers and once I pulled my fingers back surely it was full of blood. The girls finger touched me and suddenly I blacked out with this power... for a second I seen a bit of red flash in the girls eyes then it felt like electric currents ran through my body. In the reflection of her dead lifeless eyes. My eyes were red. A strange red.
I finally know what happened. I know who did this. I´m going back to Beacon Hills to find Peter and let him know that I know he killed my aunt.
He´s too strong. But, how did he even have enough of this power? It was too late too figure out much of what happened. He wanted to be alpha and he was willing to kill his own niece to get it.
¨Don't think that it´s anything personal sweetheart.¨ Peter spoke roughly shoving me to the ground after hours of clawing me. The thing is... he caught me off guard. He somehow knew that I would be here. He somehow knew that I knew it was him. It was all him.
¨You´ll never get away with this Peter.¨ I spit out some blood.
¨Oh sweetie. I already have.¨ He chuckled.
¨How are you even here? You were burned half to death in the fire... I know. I´m not- stupid!¨ I groaned slowly sitting up.
¨Now, there are even some things that you shouldn´t be able to know. Although, you´re going to die anyway.¨ He started sharpening his claws slightly against the bark of a tree. ¨You see I wasn´t always as weak as I seemed to be when the fire hit me. Let me tell you something.¨ He started to talk and yet... I couldn´t hear a word he was saying. It was like he was whispering it to her. I´m so confused... who are these people?
¨Please don´t do this Uncle Peter.¨ I coughed up more blood.
¨I´ll have more respect. I´ll continue to kill and get even angrier until each and every one of them are dead for what they did to our family. It was Derek´s fault anyway for falling in love with an Argent. No one cares. No one else is going to find out. Not one soul is going to know." He raised his claws high in the air and that´s when I let out the most horrifying howl you could ever imagine.
¨You´re trying to signal Derek well, guess what, he won´t come. He´s the last family you have and I´ll just use him. I´ll have all the control.¨Peter said.
¨You´re wrong. He will find out why I called him here. When he finds me-¨
¨If he finds you.¨
¨He´ll know it was you. Derek isn´t stupid. He´ll know.¨
He used his claws to cut me in half and that was it. Everything went dark.
I coughed and opened my eyes. It was broad daylight. The body was still here. Scott was gone. I´m sure he saw the body it was somewhat misplaced. I stood up but stumbled. I rubbed my head and it wasn´t bleeding anymore. It was completely healed. That´s weird. I looked at the girl one more time. I knew who she was. Laura Hale. I will keep this information to myself even though I don´t even know how I know this info but... it´s already been crazy I don´t need to think about this much more. I need to go home. I walked down by a broken branch and a strange piece of black hair hung out of it. I went out to grab it then I smelled something really strong. Fear and pure anger but, also hope. I saw a flash a something raven black with red eyes standing tall on its hind legs. I blinked hard several times but then dropped the hair on the ground and continued to walk. Laura Hale and Peter Hale are wolves? I need better information about all of this. I heard something move and I looked around but seen no one. I shrugged and kept walking. Today was the day that I was going to have to face Jackson and Lydia. I made it home and no one was there. I showered and washed my hair. I was confused as to how my head healed as fast as it did. I threw on my black jeans and my baby blue hoodie with no shirt under it and threw on my Adidas then I walked out of the door letting my curly hair down. I made myself a white chocolate hot chocolate mocha then I made my way to school. Once I arrived the bell hadn´t even rung. I sat down on the bench and drank my hot chocolate and sighed. I saw Scott and Stiles make their way out of Stiles´ jeep and ran over to me. I stood up and sat my cup down next to my book bag when Scott came up to me looking worried and Stiles looked angry. I´ve never seen him on this level of angry since well... ever?
¨Oh my god Brendan! I´m glad you´re okay. Where´d you go last night?¨Scott questioned me. I wasn´t sure whether or not to trust him with the information of what had happened last night so I just shrugged and lied. It was as easy as taking candy from a baby to lie to them.
¨I just walked around you know? Getting some fresh air.¨ I shrugged.
¨Don't you ever do that again do you understand me?" Stiles answered his pupils dilating. I looked up at him and frowned.
¨Since when do you get overprotective. Leave me alone.¨ I picked up my drink and pointed to Scott.
¨What happened last night.¨ I asked. I´m feeling pretty confident right now for some reason. I don't want to limit my amount of talking. I feel energized.
¨Something bit me. It was too dark to see but, I´m pretty sure it was a wolf¨ Scott lifted up his shirt and showed us the bite mark. I nodded my head impressed not saying anything about him guessing that it was a wolf.
¨A wolf bit you?¨ Stiles asked crossing his arms.
¨Uh-huh.¨ Scott answered pulling down his shirt.
¨I heard a wolf howling.¨ Scott furrowed his eyebrows. I just watched them both while drinking my hot chocolate.
¨No, you didn´t.¨ Stiles shook his head.
¨What do you mean "No I didn't" How do you know what I heard?¨ Scott frowned.
Stiles laughed. ¨Because California doesn´t have wolves okay? Not in like sixty years.¨ Stiles spoke.
¨Really?¨ Scott raised a brow.
¨Yes really.¨ Stiles blinked ¨There are no wolves in California."
¨Alright well, if you don´t believe me about the wolves then you won´t believe me when I tell you that I found the body.¨ Scott told him cringing.
I knew it. He must´ve tripped over Laura.
¨Are you kidding me?¨ Stiles´ face dropped.
¨No man, I´m gonna be having nightmares for a month.¨ Scott shivered. Well, Scott, you aren´t the only who found the body. I must´ve been really hidden if he didn´t see me.
¨Oh god, that is freakin´ awesome. I mean, this is seriously gonna be the best thing that´s happened to this town since-since the birth of Lydia Martin.¨ Ugh great, my mood has been somewhat dimmed down.
¨Hey Lydia you look like... you´re gonna ignore me.¨ Stiles hung his head while Scott snickered.
¨You guys are the cause of this you know.¨ Stiles threw his book bag over his shoulder.
¨Uh-huh.¨ Scott and I said at the exact same time.
¨Draggin´ me down in your nerd depths.¨ He kept going. ¨I´m a nerd by association. I´ve been scarlet-nerded by you.¨ We all walked into the school feeling absolutely nothing. Well, I wasn´t feeling anything or any emotion. All I felt was power. A really strong type of power. I shrugged it off as all three of us headed towards our lockers which were right next to each other. I hope this day gets better. I don´t really know what to expect.
