The moment I got up this morning, the first thing I did was to log into my chatpage to see if anyone was online. I needed to see what was up. From what Stiles told me over the phone, Scott was a wreck. Stiles had told me everything that happened, he had heard it all from Isaac.

I checked my friendlist and saw Isaac online.

Tara61: How is everything going?

ILahey: Everyone is pretty down but that's a give.

Tara61: I have a really hard time thinking that he's dead. With all Derek's anger, shouldn't he have fought more?

ILahey: You didn't see it. It wasn't exactly an easy fall.

Tara61: I suppose you're right... I'm worried about Scott though... Does he seem okay?

ILahey: I don't know... Haven't seen him since yesterday.

Tara61: Are you okay?

ILahey: I'll manage. See you at the bus?

Tara61: No, my parents are out of town so I'm ditching. I have some things I gotta do.

ILahey: Okay, just call or text if something happens.

Tara61: No problem.

We both logged out and I decided to make myself ready for today's mission. I felt so guilty for not doing anything yesterday so I wasn't about to leave it now. I was going to find out if there was any chance of survival.

I put on a pair of black, tight jeans and a white, loose, simple t-shirt. Over the t-shirt I had a blue, denim vest. I chose my white platform converse to wear on my feat and I headed out. I decided to walk, I needed fresh air anyway. I walked over to the animal clinic, I stopped outside and took a deep breath.

I opened the door and stepped in.

"Hello? Deaton?", I asked and he appeared from the back.

"Tara... What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at school?", he asked. Atleast he remembered me. We only met breafly with Scott once.

"Yeah... But I couldn't just leave this alone. I didn't help at all so I need to do something now", I explained.

"Tara... What happened wasn't your fault", Deaton said.

"I know, it's just I can't help to feel responsible somehow", I said sadly.

"Come in", he said and opened the gate.

I walked in and closed the gate behind me. I followed him into the operationroom.

"So is there a chance of survival? For Derek I mean. Even the slightest?", I asked

"Maybe... But he'll need medical help if he is alive", Deaton explained.

"Then shouldn't we look for him?", I urged.

"There is to much risks", he said as if his word was the final.

I sighed and began thinking of when I had followed Scott to Allison's the other day.

When will he be back? It's taken ages already. Why did he even want me to come with him here in the first place? "Yes, Tara come with me when I go talking to my ex." Halelujah, what a dream situation. I walked back and forth in front of the door until he showed up.

"Let's go!", he said and began walking towards the elevator. As we walked in I saw a blind man standing in the elevator and suddenly Scott had his claws out.

"Scott!", I called but interrupted myself and looked at the blind man. "Deucalion...", I continued.

"You must be Tara... I've been longing to meet you", he answered

"Me? Why? I'm a nobody", I said without really thinking.

"Oh, it's quite the opposite. You have something quite extraordinary", he said and I frowned. "Oh, come on. Put those away, Scott", he said and turned to Scott. "I'd have to be blind, deaf and quadriplegic for you to be an actual threat or maybe you should take a chance...", he continued. "Your heart beats steady. You might be afraid of me but your controling it. Maybe you'd actually rise to the occation, become an alpha by killing one", Deucalion said.

"I'm not like you", Scott said. And halelujah for that. It's enough with one of Deucalion, thank you very much. "I don't have to kill people", he continued.

"Not yet", Deucalion said.

We had been stuck in that elevator with him longer but I didn't want to re-live the memory.

"What are you thinking about?", Deaton asked.

"Something Deucalion said... He said 'You have something quite extraordinary' and it really bothers me that he sees something interesting in me", I said.

"Interesting...", he answered, clearly thinking about something.

While he was thinking I picked up my phone and texted Stiles.

"How is everything going on the bus?", I wrote.

"Boyd is on the verge. Scott's stopping him but he's still hurt from the fight", Stiles answered. "Crisis averted ", he wrote two seconds later.

Half a minute later I got a text from Isaac saying "Scott's still hurt". I answered with "I know, I'm at Deaton's" because I know he was wondering.

Suddenly we heard someone come in so me and Deaton walked to the reception. We walked out and saw the alpha pack plus Ms. Morrell walk in. I eyed them suspiciously and my eyes met Aidens.

"We could use a little help", Ms. Morrell said.

"Try the hospital", Deation said.

"Open the gate, Alan", she answered harshly but Deaton didn't flinch.

"No", he said simply

"Help us", Kali said stepping forward. I was actually sort of shocked, she sounded so... needing but her vouce switched fast. "Or maybe I'll just kill her", she continued.

"Not here, you won't", he answered. Damn, he's cool.

Kali turned back and he continued. "I suggest you leave. Don't make me insist", he said.

"Alan, if he dies, they'll go after the others and don't think your little precious Scott won't find his way to the middle of it. They'll kill him, you know they will. Alan, please", Ms. Morrell said. I looked back and forth.

Deaton opened the gate and the alphas walked in. As Aiden walked past me we looked deeply into eachothers eyes. I could see something in his eyes change, was it... sadness? Could he have saw how hurt I was by him? That wasn't possible. He was the big, bad wolf. That couldn't be, he couldn't feel like apologizing. I felt my phone vibrate and saw Stiles calling.

"Hello?", I answered

"Tara! Tara! Tara! Ennis is alive and they're taking him to Deato...", Stiles yelled.

"SCHHHHH!", I hushed. "They're already here", I whispered.

"You're at Deaton's?", he asked.

"Yes, and they just walked in so I can't really talk right now", I said and hung up. I walked into the operating-room and watched as they put Ennis on the table when Stiles called again, I walked out of room again and felt Aiden's eyes on me.

"What?!", I asked when I was in another room.

"Look, we're in a bathroom and Lydia said the reason Scott isn't healing could be because he doesn't believe it himself. Is that true? I know you want to become a doctor so...", Stiles said. Obviously wanting a second opinion.

"Well, there is such a thing. So that could be the case but also it could be something else. But on the other hand the others are healed so it's probably your safest bet", I said in a low tone.

"Okay, thanks", he said and hung up. I walked into the operating-room once again and saw them all standing right where I left them.

"Please, someone turn the sign on the front door to closed, this could take a while", Deaton said.

"I'll do it", I said and Aiden followed me.

I turned the sign over and wanted to head inside again when Aiden stopped me.

"Stop, I want to talk to you", he said and gripped my wrist.

"I have nothing to say", I said and tried to get loose but didn't get anywhere.

"I'm sorry. I never wanted to hurt you. I didn't know you'd be there, in the janitors closet", he said and looked me deep into the eyes. I began to feel warm and could feel myself forgiving him, even though I knew I shouldn't.

"Why should I believe you? Why did you even start speaking to me in the first place? It was because they, the alphas, wanted you too, isn't it?", I asked asked and he looked at me sadly.

"Have you ever heard me apologize before?", he said and looked at me intensly. I hadn't, he never apologized.

"No", I said so low that I'm amazed that he even heard.

"Well, I apologize to you", he said and let me go. We looked at eachother for what felt like forever until Deucalion came in and Aiden changed his position to almost military. I looked at Deucalion as if he was poison. I did not like him. He walked in to the operating-room and as soon as he was out of sight Aiden relaxed a bit.

"What was that about?", I asked without thinking. Why did I say that outloud? Darn.

Aiden looked at me and smiled slightly. Suddenly Kali came running and Aiden went after her. They more or less ran out and I walked out after them. Kali began growling and that's when I understood that Deucalion had killed Ennis. But why? Why would he kill him? He was beginning to get better.

Kali sat down on the ground and Aiden walked the opposite way, into the ally where that guy disappeard. He leaned against the wall and with a look I couldn't really explain.

"Aiden", I said softly. He wasn't really forgiven yet but I still wanted to be there for him. He looked at me and I could see sorrow, his friend and packmember had died. And their leader had killed him.

Aiden didn't respond so I walked over to him and hugged him. He didn't hug me back but it didn't really matter. Somehow, he was upset by this so I was going to comfort him and I didn't care if anyone held it against me.

We stood there for awhile, just being close to eachother until I felt him relax a bit.

"So, how's it going with Lydia?", I asked mostly because I needed to know if I had a chance or not. No, it was impossible. He was evil.

"Oh, it's going great! She's a wild one", he said and smirked. I felt a stab but hid it underneith a smile.

"Yeah, she's not an angel, I suppose", I said with that same weak, fake smile. "Listen, we play on opposite teams now. You are with the bad guys and I'm with the good so... this can't be happening", I said hesitantly.

"And what is this?", He said as our faces got closer. I wanted to answer but I couldn't. Just as our lips were about to touch I realized what I was doing.

"No. This isn't happening", I said, pulling away. "I'm not a toy for you to play with. I'm not someone you can use whenever you want. I am a person with feelings and I refuse to be used. You hurt me, I almost got killed because of you and you are basically sleeping with Lydia so don't come here and think you're getting any", I raged and walked away, not looking back.

I got home and threw myself on the bed. I hugged my teddybear tightly, a desperate try to stop myself from crying. But I couldn't. I cried as if my mom just died. That's when I heard a stone being thrown on my window. I wiped my tears away and walked over to it. I saw Isaac standing below the window. I opened it and looked down.

"What are you doing here?", I asked, trying to sound normal.

"Checking on you. I'm coming up", he said and began climbing.

"Oh, lord", I said and backed away and before I knew it, he was up. He looked at me and started frowning.

"Have you been crying?", he asked.

"No", I said. Way to quick.

"What happened? Did that Aiden-guy do something?", he asked starting to fume.

"No, I was just missing my parents", I said. What an obvious lie but he calmed down. "Ennis died... Deucalion killed him", I continued. Wanting to chane the subject.

"You're joking?", he said surprised.

"No, the thing was that he was getting better and then Deucalion came and killed him. I've been thinking about why and maybe he wanted to add to his own power? I mean he said it himself. If you kill someone then their power is transferred to you so... Maybe he did it for power?", I said, brainstorming.

"Yeah, maybe...", Isaac considered.

For the rest of the night we talked about our days so we both knew what happened on each place. We kept talking until midnight when we realized that we both had to sleep and he had to go.

And when I went to sleep I actually felt better.
