Chapter 3

Two Days Later

A bleary eyed Scott McCall made his way into his bathroom after waking up while absent mindedly scratching himself. Though for whatever reason he couldn't quite fathom, his eyes seemed a little heavier then normal thanks to the fact that someone was blasting loud music near his house the night before. Cora. Came the sleepy thought in his somewhat sleep deprived mind.

As it could only be her who had done it in retaliation for a certain logo he had on a t-shirt that day. One he'd been able to get done the day before yesterday since he knew a guy. Of course, had he the extra money, Scott would have had more of the shirts made that the logo of 'Three Tail Hale Returns!' on it. But since he was getting paid soon, he figured it could be done but in the mean time, could find another fun way to get back at her. The thought was enough to make him slightly giddy as he did his business but his giddyness would go out the door once he saw himself through heavy eyes in the mirror! "WHAT THE HELL!?" Roared out the angry Teen Wolf!

Kitchen

Melissa jumped at the sudden roar that went out through the house while one Cora Hale fought to keep a smirk from appearing on her lips. Erica and Lydia even doing the same as well since they had helped her out with the plan. "What on Earth has gotten into that boy?" Wondered the lovely Melissa with a shake of the head as he wasn't normally one to do such a thing like that!

"Who knows, Mrs. McCall, maybe its just some teen boy thing that we girls will never understand?" Proposed Cora in a fake thoughtful way that made Erica want to snicker over.

"Or it could be a Werewolf thing? I mean, those boys do like to yell a lot for no real reason." Added in Lydia and Erica couldn't help the snort of amusement that escaped her.

Their host turned their attention towards the young Blonde. "Any ideas, sweetie?"

"Uhh, maybe he got hit by some cold water from the shower?"

It was all the other two girls could do not to groan at the weak reply from their friend. Melissa stared at the young girl for a moment, one that felt like an eternity to the She-Wolf at that before letting out a breath with a shake of the head. "That's certainly possible since that son of mine has done it before."

And knowing him, would do it again in the future! With her attention off of her, Erica did a tiny sigh of relief, thankful that the heat so to speak was off her! Stomping could then be heard from the stairs and the subject of their conversation made his appearance! Causing Melissa to let out a gasp as her sweet son's face was made up like one of those Geishas she'd heard about once! And not only that, but Scott had red bumpy looking rashes on parts of his chest and even his arms while his eyes looked very puffy and swolen! "Oh my." Muttered the mother in shock.

"YOU!" Yelled out the angry young man while pointing directly at Cora.

"Yep, me. Nice Scooby Doo boxers by the way." Cora told him while acting the picture of innocence.

"Yeah, I'll say, meow!" Purred Erica with a grin on her lips.

"They, they were a gift from Allison awhile back." He told the two defensively and if he didn't have the make up on, his blush would be easy to see!

Lydia's eyes lit up as she recalled the day her best friend bought those boxers! "And she said those were a gift for her dad. Liar!" Remarked the girl fondly and rather proudly at that where Allison was concerned.

"Huh, girl clearly has a taste for the classics." Murmured Cora thoughtfully.

A growl escaped the unhappy Scott as he glared daggers at Cora, who continued to look the perfect picture of innocence. "I don't know how you managed it, but I KNOW you got me covered with Poison Oak and this make up!" Snarled the teen while pointing a finger at the girl.

Oh how she wanted to full on smirk at him. "Why Scottie, I'm hurt, really and truly hurt that you would accuse me of such a horrible thing. I may cry now cause of how hurt I am."

His eye twitched as she sounded anything but hurt! Lydia, his mother, and Erica all had to hide their smiles behind their hands. But he managed to pick up on their amusement anyway thanks to his enhanced senses and pouted. "This isn't funny! Now I can't go to school like this!"

He sounded so whiny and pathetic in that moment that his own mother of all people began to giggle! Causing a sense of betrayal to well up in him as he stared at her in shock! "MOM!"

"Don't be so dramatic, Scottie! It'll go away in a few hours!" Cora told him cheerfully and in a manner she thought was oh so helpful!

Another eye twitch was her reward for her excellent efforts to be helpful and she loved it so. Wearing thick gloves and very concealing clothes had certainly paid off while she, Lydia, and Erica paid him a visit during the night and rubbed a few Poison Oak leaves on his body and arms. And then applied the Geisha make up to his face. Though it wasn't clear if the Oak or the make up was why his eyes were so puffy and swolen however. But it was a nice unintended touch regardless in the young Hale's view! "Fix it now! And don't tell me you can't, as you or Deaton has to know a way to do it!"

"Scott! That's not how we talk to guests and you know it!" Reprimanded Melissa through her giggle fit.

Low grumbling could be heard from him while the three girls held in their smirks and laughter. And my was it hard to do so! Aww, he's pouting again. Perfect!

This day was truly looking up in Cora's view and it had barely even started. The fact a few pictures had been taken and shared with their friends only would be icing on the cake once he learned of it. And yes, they had the good sense to let Melissa know before they did it as well. "You know, Mrs. McCall…" Began Lydia and gaining the older woman's attention while an unhappy Scott began to feel a sense of dread well up in him.

"I think Cora here deserves an apology. Don't you, Cora? And what about you Erica? Do you think our friend deserves an apology for how rude he's being?"

It took all Erica had not to break down into full on laughter at the pure evil genius of the Redhead near her. "Yes, I do." She got out quickly and then clamped down before anything else could happen.

Like a whole lot of laughter. The kind that hurt your stomach for example. Melissa eyed the girls for a moment before giving a look at her son. "Hmm… You know what? I think you girls are right."

"MOM!"

"I'm sorry, sweetheart, but you were rude and things like that get apologies for."

Silence went on for several minutes while Scott looked like a Deer caught in the headlights. A look the girls were greatly enjoying for that matter too. "Time is ticking and we don't have all day." Sighed Lydia with a shake of the head.

"I..."

"Yessss?" Dragged out Cora with an expectant look on her face.

"I'mshowwyOra!"

"I'm sorry, but what? I couldn't hear you."

Another amused snort escaped Erica, who's will to keep from laughing full on was slowly crumbling. Inch by inch and Lydia and Melissa weren't too far behind either. Growling softly, Scott repeated himself while making a visible effort to go slower. "I said, I'm sorry, Cora." Bit out the teen unhappily.

He then rushed off back to the safety of his room and the hope the make up could be easily washed off. School most certainly would not be in the cards that day and he could only hope the Poison Oak would be gone by the end of the day or he'd be screwed! Oh there will be Hell to pay!

Meanwhile, the four ladies were looking at where Scott had been before he hauled ass. "That? Now that was fun!" Declared Cora with smugness radiating from her.

Loud laughter soon rang out through the house from all 4 ladies and Scott scowled unhappily as he heard it. I'm comin' for you, Three Tail Hale! I promise you that and you won't like what I'll do!

The urge to maniacally laugh came up in him but he quashed it down as now wasn't the time or place. No, certainly not then. But once he had his vengeance it certainly would be! As payback was such a sweet thing!
