The Blond Werewolf Of Beacon Hills
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Teen Wolf
There is an extremely important author's note at the bottom regarding the pairings, which I would really appreciate if you guys all read.
Stiles had seen multiple battles, more frequently so during the past few months than ever before, but what he saw that day wasn't a battle. It was a massacre.
When Coach blew the whistle, he threw the ball into the air, and all the front-liners jumped forward to catch it. But they stood no chance against Naruto, who pushed his way into the centre and jumped a good few feet to get the ball. Once he had secured it, he ran through the crowd as if they were no obstacle.
The opposing team immediately rushed him, along with quite a few members from the same team who were anxious for the title of co-captain. But none could pose to be a threat to the Hale. The blond progressed through them as if they were scarecrows, nimbly dodging past them, and pushing them down if forced to. He was an unstoppable force, and even from this distance, he could see Coach Finstock's maniacal grin, as he rubbed his hands with glee.
Stiles would not lie, he had felt a sense of great joy and satisfaction as he saw Naruto toss away Jackson. Jackson had been foolish enough to try to sneak up on the other blond, but Naruto sidestepped him, before tackling him, and sending him reeling back.
Soon enough, the blond arrived in front of Scott, who was the sole remaining defender, being the goal keeper. The black haired teen braced himself for the Alpha's next move, and the tension was nearly palpable. The blond pulled back his stick, before bringing it forth with a great deal of might, and sending the ball rushing at the Beta at a great speed. Scott reacted as fast as he could and caught it with his stick. He couldn't believe it, he had done it. He smirked triumphantly at the blond, only to realise that he was also smirking. The Beta then realised that his stick felt strangely light, and noticed the looks of great shock with which the Coach and all the fallen players were staring at him.
He looked at the stick, only to see that the ball wasn't in it. All he saw was a fist-sized hole in the middle of the netting. He then turned his gaze to the ground, and saw the white ball sitting behind him, pressed against the net. A strong sense of disbelief came to fill him, but he had learnt better than to doubt what he saw over the past several weeks. The sense of disbelief was soon replaced by dread, as he gained a more specific insight as to what the person in front of him was capable of.
Stiles had remained confused for a little bit when everyone fell silent, but when he saw the ball drop to the ground, he was forced to gulp. He was growing more and more anxious regarding the Alpha's presence, and feared the worst. For the moment, it seemed like Naruto had no problem with them, but how long would that last.
It was Coach who broke the great silence as he began whooping and screaming, as he stumbled onto the field. He ran up to Naruto, before grasping his shoulders tightly, with a grin on his face that gave even Naruto the chills.
"Hahaha, Hale, you and I, we are going to be really good friends, believe me."
Naruto quickly nodded, and the Coach released him before turning to the rest of the players, most of which were still sprawled out on the field.
"Today, I saw something so beautiful, I nearly cried. And let me tell you, that hasn't happened since the school forced me to go into rehab. What this guy did, that is lacrosse. You guys just stood there like a bunch of leaves waiting to be raked away. I swear, I'm so pissed at you, I would have beat the pudding out of you if it wasn't for the fact that I'm sure at least one of you would've gone to the school to complain about sexual harassment. But that doesn't mean I can't tell you how bad you guys were today. I mean, as much as I hate to say this, McCall was the only one that actually seemed to be trying. Which is why he will be the second co-captain of the school team. Now, I don't need to tell you people who the other one is, so get up to you feet, we still have a whole practice to finish."
Naruto could not help but smirk as the other players groaned, before he walked over to Scott, who was also smiling at the Coach's praise, no matter how small it had been.
"You played well, Scott, and I'm pleased to be working with you, fellow co-captain."
The blond extended a hand towards the black haired teen, and Scott took it with little trepidation. But their moment of friendship was soon broken by an interruption.
Jackson was angry. He was surprised that he could not defeat the new kid, but for Coach to turn him into co-captain, and only based on one game was preposterous, unacceptable. And Jackson was going to tell the guy exactly that. He stormed towards Naruto, before pushing back Scott, and shoving the other blond up against the goal pole, not realising his mistake.
"So what's your trick?! You might have everybody else here fooled, but I won't believe for a second that anybody can be that good! So you're either a monstrosity, or you're taking drugs! And I'm not about to lose my captaincy to some psychotic drug addict, you hear me?!"
The boy sent spittle flying at the other blond, his face a mottled red as he glared at the Alpha, as if he was nothing but a peasant, someone below him, his inferior in every way.
Stiles had seen the game end, and had began walking toward Scott after the Coach's announcement. When he saw the Alpha begin to walk towards his best friend as well, he could not help but pick up his pace. He arrived just as Scott was thrown back by Jackson, who promptly started yelling at the newly minted co-captain.
Merely a moment after Jackson's rant, Naruto pulled back his right arm, before bringing his fist forward at the other blond's face. Now, he remained careful to not make the punch too hard, but it was still considerably strong. Jackson could give testimony to that, as he soon found himself crashing to the ground, nursing his left cheek. He glared at the blond who stood above him, but his gaze soon shrank back at the look Naruto gave him.
"Jackson, the facts are that you weren't good enough, and I beat you fair. You just couldn't stack up, and you never will with your attitude. You lost today, so don't be a sore loser. The least you could have done is walked away with your dignity intact."
Despite the look he gave Jackson, he spoke in a steady voice betraying no emotion. Jackson only grew further infuriated at the Alpha, but this time, he walked away. But Naruto could still hear the empty threats he was muttering under his breath.
"I swear, I'm gonna have that freak driven out of the city…"
Scott was both amazed and shocked by the Werewolf's actions, and Stiles could agree, the only difference being that he had enjoyed watching Jackson being shown up more so than his black haired best friend. But their shock came from the fact that Naruto had no qualms about gaining attention, which was against all that they had learnt so far, regarding the supernatural having to keep a low profile.
The coach walked over to Naruto with a serious look on his face, as he thought over what to say regarding the matter.
"That was the kind of behaviour that shows a lack of sportsmanship. Sometimes you need to know when to show restraint."
Naruto heard the words but didn't give them much thought. For all he cared, he was perfectly within his rights to hit back, as it had been Jackson who had initiated the contact. But Naruto still noticed the Coach's expression turn back to his usual crazy 'game face'.
"But I gotta say, you packed a mean right hook. I think I might just be a fan. Well, I gotta going now. It'd be best to report this to the admin before they coming down on my ass for not telling them first. God knows it wouldn't be the first time. I want all of you here at 7 am tomorrow for early practice. We need to make up for lost time."
With that, Finstock began walking away from the field, and the boys slowly began dispersing to the locker room, glad for the early release.
Naruto also walked into the showers, and just after he turned on the tap, he closed his eyes and tried to relax a little under the soothing water. He might not have shown it, but he was greatly furious at Jackson. It was people like him who didn't realise that there is a natural order to things for a reason, and were never able to admit that they could possibly be worse than anyone else. They believed that such a thing as simple as the position of co-captain was worth fighting for with such aggression.
Naruto was interrupted from his internal tirade when he heard a plastic bottle fall to the floor of the shower room. He opened his eyes to find Danny standing in front of him, preparing to take a shower, but rooted to his place for some reason. The blond looked down and saw that it was Danny who had dropped his bottle of shampoo. Naruto bent over and picked it up, before handing it over to the other teen with a small smile. Danny had seemed to be a good fellow from what he had noticed, despite the fact that he was good friends with Jackson. Danny only mumbled out a quick thank-you, before turning around and turning on the tap of his own shower while facing the wall.
After stepping out of the showers, Naruto put on a black t-shirt and a pair of jeans, before quickly using his senses to find Scott. Once he found the black haired Beta, who was walking already walking towards the exits, he halted him, and struck up a conversation once more.
"So, let's go, shall we?"
Scott was confused at his words, and asked him to elaborate, while looking around for Stiles, who was probably still changing.
"Well, I need to learn how to drive, and you're the only person I somewhat trust in this school. So you'll be teaching me."
The Beta turned to the blond in slight shock and apprehension at being declared a person who the Alpha could trust. He decided that it would be best not to put up a fight, as teaching the blond how to drive didn't seem too perilous, plus it was a way for him to learn a little more about the new Werewolf. He knew Stiles would be worried, so he sent him a text explaining where he was going. He knew Allison would also fret, but he couldn't risk sending her a text, since he was sure Chris tracked her phone logs. Once he was done, he agreed to walk forth with Naruto.
About five minutes later, Stiles stumbled out of the locker room, having just read his friend's message. He didn't know if Scott was still in his right mind to have done something so stupid. Whatever the cause may have been, the brown haired boy would have to catch up to his friend before he got away. Stiles broke into a run down the hallways, and was soon close to the exit. But just at the final turn towards the left, he ran into another person, and sent both of them falling. Stiles rubbed his elbow, before looking up from the ground at the person he knocked into.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry I just didn't see you there. Are you alright?"
The blond girl merely let out a small whimper, as her eyes widened as she stared at the boy. Stiles was honestly a little freaked out by her, before he noticed that she had dropped a stack of books onto the floor, he began to pick them up in an effort to both alleviate the awkwardness, and be able to quickly continue his pursuit of Scott and Naruto.
But just as the boy had gathered up all her books, he looked towards her, only to be shocked as she began convulsing erratically, before she also started to growl in an indistinct pattern.
Stiles knew what was happening. The girl was having a seizure. He looked around the hall, only to find it mostly deserted. He also knew that the school nurse left at noon, and it was nearly two already. So he did the only thing he could do. Scooping up the girl into his arms, he rushed out to the parking lot, and set her into the passenger seat, while grumbling about rotten luck. He hastily drove out of the school premises, before heading towards the county hospital, while frequently casting the girl worried glances.
"Scott, you better stay safe, or I'm gonna have to kill you."
Said Werewolf was currently sitting in Naruto's black Camaro, gripping onto the sides of the seat as the blond jerkily drove through the streets of Beacon Hills. The Alpha on the other seemed to be enjoying himself greatly, and was mostly oblivious to his friend's plight. He now understood why Derek had always found driving to be so thrilling.
Soon enough, to Scott's relief, they pulled up to the Hale Manor, where Naruto was successfully able to park the car. They both stepped out, but the Beta was greatly surprised when Naruto invited him inside. He was even further surprised when he stepped through the doors, only to find that most of the interior had been completely demolished, and a huge pit had been dug into the ground within the area of the house. A rope ladder dropped to the bottom of the pit, a good sixty feet down, where a figure stood, using a shovel to create a large hole into the side of the wall. Upon closer inspection, Scott saw the figure was Derek, who seemed to be decently worn out, and was covered in mud and grime.
Naruto was quite pleased to see that Derek had made such progress in his absence, and saw that the older man seemed to have rekindled his love for hard work, as opposed to letting others get their hands dirty. He greeted his adoptive brother, who was also a bit surprised at the presence of the novice Beta.
"Scott, I'm sure as you may have guessed, we plan on rebuilding the Hale residence into one of the finest places in the country, one that will be a pale accommodate any and all needs of the future generations of the Hale family. This place will not only serve as our residence, but also as or headquarters, and our training place. And yes, you too will have to train with us."
Naruto allowed the teen to digest these words before continuing.
"Now, we all know that it would be best to keep the involvement of mortals in this to a limit, which is why we will not hire any builders. Luckily for us, we can do at least ten times the work as an ordinary man in the same amount of time. But that aside, you will still have to help us as a part of the Hale pack."
Before Naruto could continue, Scott cut in with his own objections.
"I can't afford to spend any more of my time for something like this. I already barely have enough time to keep up with my studies and lacrosse. Plus I need to work at the vet's four nights a week, sometimes even more."
Both the Hales exchanged a small smirk at this, much to the confusion of the teenager.
"Yes, your agreement with Deaton. Well, we were able to convince him to let you go for alternating weeks, so you will work with him for one week, and then with us the next. And don't worry, we have no problem in paying you at least as much as Deaton did for your troubles, because that is the least you deserve after the recent changes you are experiencing."
Scott was stunned. Naruto had gone out of his way to ensure that he would not have to go through much trouble. That was the quality a leader required. Scott soon had to mentally remind himself that the Hales were still looking at him for an answer.
"Well, I guess then it shouldn't be a problem. So, how can I help out?"
Naruto grinned at the black haired boy's eagerness to help, before he pointed towards a large pile of planks in the corner.
"Well, to start off, you and Derek need to use those to build a support for the tunnel which I'm gonna carve into the wall. We don't want the place crashing down on us, do we? But I think it would be best if you called your mom and friends first. It wouldn't do to have them worrying, now would it?"
After Scott quickly sent his mom a text, telling her that he was with some friends working on a school project, the trio of Werewolves got ready to work. But before they could start, Derek pulled Scott to a side.
"Look, Scott, I realise it wasn't right of me to use you like I did. I apologise for that, but I need to make sure that there is no bad blood between us. It may not seem like it, but I support Naruto and also desire the same for the Hale name. And I don't want our distrust for each other to come in the way of that."
Scott mulled over the man's words, before replying, thinking over what to say.
"Derek, we are a pack, and I'm not going to hold our previous differences against you. I mean, I don't like the fact that you betrayed me, but I can call a truce."
And with that, they both shook hands with a look of mutual respect, before they were called over by Naruto, who was growing rather impatient.
"Come on you two, this tunnel ain't gonna make itself!"
Author's Note:
Hi guys and gals! It looks like I'm on a role, with all these quick updates. So, first I must thank you all for the great reception and the awesome feedback. You all gave me some interesting points, a few of which I've experimented with in this chapter as you may see.
Now, I don't know why, but after proofreading the chapter, I feel the need to clarify upon something. The pairings will not contain yaoi, except for one or two side pairings. The interactions between some of the guys in this chapter might have slightly pointed towards that, but it was completely unintentional. And with Danny, their relation will be platonic, although at first it might be a one-sided crush of sorts.
Furthermore, I know that this chapter didn't give any major development to the plot, but please be patient, the story will follow soon, once the characters are able to settle with Naruto.
Well, I guess that will be it. I really hope you enjoy, and would love it if you follow, favourite or review. In the case of any questions or queries, just send me a PM or a review, and I will do my best to reply soon. Your positive feedback is always a pleasure to read, and I hope you guys can get the next chapter soon as well.
Peace Out
Kofukuna Shi No Kami
