AN: Ugh...I'm so sorry I didn't update this sooner. I typed it up and everything Saturday and then I never got around to it. But now you can read it before the new episode today! or after...I just wanted to let my readers know that this chapter doesn't really go along with the original plot like the earlier chapters do and it's not the last! I'm a little nervous…please read and review! In chapters like these I'd love to know what you all want to see! It's fanfiction after all, right? Oh, the dialogue in italics is Scott's memory from his encounter with the alpha in the last chapter.

I bared my fangs and lunged forward, pushing the creature off me then tackling him before he could recover. Growling fiercely, I catch a glimpse of surprise along with a mixture of fear in the eyes of the predator that had now become my prey. In a blurred motion, a clawed hand gripped my throat. I tried prying it off, desperately gasping for air…

My arms became pinned to my side. I thrashed around in an effort to break free. My eyes burst open and I stared down my attacker in a red haze, snarling.

He growled back, his eyes aglow. There was something strange about them, they didn't reflect a red light, and were purple.

The red around my vision faded and I found myself staring at Derek, who had shifted and eyes appeared an electric blue.

"Derek?" I looked down at my tattered jeans and my bloodstained hands. "What happened? What did I do?" I couldn't recall what I had just done, and it terrified me.

"Actually, I was hoping you could tell me that. By the looks of it, seems like you have a death wish," Derek said.

"I don't have a death wish." I snapped, suddenly unsure of myself.

"Because trying to take down an alpha by yourself is a sure sign that you want to live past 16."

So I actually did go after the alpha. "What did you hope to do chasing after him like that?"

I stared down at my hands. "I just had to try."

"Try to do what, Scott?"

"To…I was…nothing, never mind," I stammered.

I still didn't trust him enough to tell him my true intentions, and my past with alphas. I absently rubbed my neck.

There were bruises, but they would probably heal by morning.

"A werewolf naturally has better survival instincts, but you seem to shift when you feel threatened,

which makes you unstable…it's nearly impossible to teach you."

"I don't remember asking for your help." I said a little too harshly.

"If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead already. You're going to need me if you want to learn how to control this. You and me Scott, we're brothers now."

I trudged through the forest silently and quickly. The sound of a cars approaches, as I come near the roadside.

The headlights blind me, and the engine stops. Someone's coming… I can hear my heart pounding, my bones start to break.

I curse fiercely as I shift against my will. The person's coming closer with a flashlight, I notice. I try creeping into the shadows before I'm found.

"Scott? Where are you?" He points the flashlight over to the bushes I'm hiding behind. "There's no point in hiding, I see you. You are behind that bush aren't you?

I know you don't want to wear it but I brought the necklace." He brought it? That means I might be able to shift back, but I don't want him to see me like this…damn.

"Hey, you can't be any uglier than you already are, I'm just trying to help you Scott." Sighing, which comes out more like a pant, I retreat from the bush into the light.

Stiles stumbles backward, dropping the flashlight. "Jesus! You're…you actually are… like a wolf! Scott? Is that really you?"

I lower my head and pick up the flashlight in my teeth, then drop it in his lap. He stares blankly at it, then back at me.

"Can you not change back?" I shake my head slightly. "I guess you want that necklace pretty bad now, huh?" I glare at him.

"You know I always wanted a dog...you're not exactly a dog, but you come pretty close." He starts petting my head.

I start to growl, very annoyed at how he was taking this. He quickly jerks his hand back, as if I bit him. "Alright fine, I have it right here."

He reached into his pocket and pulls out the necklace. I sat down on my hunches and waited for him to put it on.

I can feel tension in my chest and a shiver is sent through my entire body, which causes my entire frame to shudder. Then, just like that, I'm human again.

"It worked," I whisper, my voice sounding foreign."Yeah, you're telling me."

I stare out the window lost in thought, fumbling with my necklace."She probably hates me now," I mutter.

"You could always tell her the truth, and if all else fails you can have her adopt you. You know, as a pet."

I turn from the window to glare at him. "Too soon?" he asks. I turn back to the window. "Well I guess you're just going to need a pretty awesome excuse."

"I guess," I say refusing to look at him.

"You know I'll be there to help you through this, I could chain you up and feed you live mice if you need me to. I had a boa once, I could do it."

"Allison, I'm really sorry about last night. Could you trust me enough to believe I had a really good reason?"

I can't believe my ears when she says she'll give me a second chance. A horn honks, and Allison turns to leave.

That scent, seems so familiar. I turn back around to see Allison's dad, who also was in the woods that night, as the lead hunter.

I raise my hand to wave as they drive off, cursing my bad luck.

Woo, Finally done with episode 1! Tell me what you think! I hope it wasn't too awful... XD
