chapter 9: lies of omission
It had been five days since everything had happened with Liam and Hayden and things within their group was getting worse, Aylee could feel that everyone in their school was in edge even if they didn't know why they were as it was as though they could sense that something was coming even if the people in the know didn't really know what their current enemy was going to do. Scott wasn't coping so well with Kira being gone since he felt that it was partly his fault for not telling her about the firefox aura around her sooner, plus there was the issue of his asthma was becoming as worse as it was before Peter had given him the almighty bite to the point that he was now having to carry around with him like he used whole group was beginning to drift apart as none of them were really talking like they used due to all of the secrets they were keeping like what happened with Donovan or that the fact that Aylee now knew a little more about her mom as well as the Dread Doctors from her previous visions. They were also keeping the fact that Parrish was the one taking the bodies from the Sheriff and Parrish since non e of them really knew what they would do, although Lyda, Stiles and Aylee were currently trying to find the Nemeton to confirm what they already knew. The Sheriff was still trying to deal with the supernatural by using the law as he created a list with all the genetic chimeras who might be a new target for the Dread Doctors, he used a list to narrow down who it might be before they were in danger. Aylee had been obsessively thinking about everything her mom had said in her vision. She wore a dark orange mickey mouse top, blue and white striped shorts and her glasses. Her long curly dark ombre hair was in its wild bedhead state and she wore no make up
" you know I think I might call this one brooding charm or sir thinks-a-lot, you ok?" Aylee said after snapping a picture of a topless Stiles who was leaning against her window frame as he looked outside as she sat on the bed crossed legged
" what? I'm fine, I was just thinking about things… you know like I do" he said not wanting to go into the messy details of what he was thinking about since he didn't want to ruin their few happy quiet moments
" which means obsessively and far too much, see even the camera can capture your anxiety" she said as she got out of the bed to give him the camera displaying the photo of him as she wrapped her arms around him from behind
" well its a look I've practiced all too much, more so lately. Why is that even when everything is falling apart including our group, things between us are still good?" he said as he put her camera down on the bedside table as he turned around
" I guess because of bond, we don't have the same issue of a normal couple because we can't hide anything from each other…especially you" she said as he wrapped his around around her as she tipped her head to the side to give him a smile
" true, we tell each other things that we would never tell anyone else … I don't want to lose you, it would be like losing a piece of myself" he said looking down at her as he realised how much he needed her and how much he loved her
" and you won't if I have another to do with it, what are you doing?" she said as he picked up her camera as he began to look through it before snapping a few pictures of her as she tried to hide from him
" well the girl behind the camera should how it feels to be under the scope, you are so beautiful in these" he said as he looked through the ones he had taken as she feel into the bed as she pushed her hair away from her eyes as she looked at him
" not true, I don't see the things you see in me so to me I am not that girl" she said gesturing to the camera where the light was hitting the blonde in hair that created a halo look around her head
" why are you doing the whole photography thing? I thought your art was more sketches and paintings" he said gesturing to the canvas around her room that were finished or had down and the drawings covering her walls
" it is but my ap art teacher said I should expand my range for colleges, you know the whole former mental patient thing" she said knowing that was like a black mark on her record
" former being the key word… god I love you!" he said putting the camera down as he ran a hand through her hair before capturing her lips in a hunger that was filled with passion as she began to respond almost immediately
" not near as much as I love you…what? you like what you see?" she said as she took her top off to expose a black bra that was covered in white lace as he looked at her as he remembered their first time together in Eichen house
Later that morning just before school Aylee and Stiles met up with Lydia in the middle of the woods so that they could try and find the nemeton so that they could find the bodies, since they figured that between a Banshee and Seer one on them could find it using their usually talents. Aylee was wearing a light blue batswing pullover sweater, a grey vest top underneath it, a pair of jeans, dark beige studded combat boots and a light faded denim backpack. Her long curly hair was mostly down with the front section of her hair up in a high ponytail that was filled with height and body, she wore brown smoky eye makeup and a natural looking lip gloss. They had been trying for days to find the nemeton despite the fact that they had come with different systems to help them along their way such as having Aylee try to draw its location.
" its almost like this thing doesn't want to be found" Stiles said knowing that he was beginning to get annoyed at how long this was taking to find a simple but powerful tree stump
" to be fair if it was easy to find then someone would have rebooted its power a long time ago" Aylee said wondering whether or not they would be dealing with the aftermath of it if it had been
" maybe it knows we're late for class which can't be good for you two" Lydia said knowing that missing a few classes wouldn't hurt her GPA since it was so high that she could have graduated early
" she has a point Stiles and by the way we've been here before…twice" she said pointing to the tree with two chalk marks as she threw her bag on the ground as she took out her sketch pad to try something different
" crap… what are you doing?" he said as he looked at his girlfriend as she began to switch to her purple seer eyes as she tried to focus on the previous images she had seen of the nemeton
" trying to get a vision of the way to the nemeton or something to help us so shhhh!" she said giving him a look that told him he wasn't helping as she went back to it as Lydia and Stiles began to look around for clues on the direction
" can we talk to Parrish now?" she said since that had been her suggestion ever since her and Stiles had realised that it was Parrish who was taking the bodies and had set the jeep on fire
" hang on, I still say that if the nemeton is covered in bodies then either you or Aylee should be able to find it" he said knowing that when ones powers and abilities failed then the other would prove to just as effective
"me?" Lydia asked knowing why he thought that Aylee could help them since she had a better handle on her powers than Lydia did but she was lost when it came to her helping them
" yes you, thats what you do. You're the Banshee, you find the bodies and Aylee sees everything in between I guess" he said casting a look at Aylee who was busy sketching away as he tried to think of the best way to describe what she did
" well the Banshee is having an off day, how's the seer doing?" Lydia said knowing that she still wanted to talk to Parrish about it, however she was the only one who really trusted him since he had hurt Aylee when he stole Josh's body
" nothing on location, so far all I've got was image of him with the bodies so its defiantly him…yay!" she said in a small victory as she began to show them her drawings of Parrish carrying out the tasks with the bodies
" how about we talk to Parrish?" Lydia said feeling a bit like a broken record as she gave them a smile as she watched them exchange a look that told her that something was going on that they weren't telling her
" we can't" Stiles said almost automatically before he could stop himself as Aylee grabbed her bag so that she could put it back on her back, she knew what he was thinking without even having to ask him
" why not?" Lydia said wondering what was so bad about telling Parrish that made them both so against it since they kept shooting her down every time she suggested it
" because one of the bodies…one of them could be….be a clue" Stiles said getting more annoyed with the fact he couldn't tell her as he considered telling her before realised how bad that might things for them all right now
" and if there are clues then we might not find them if we get the police involved, especially your dad is still hellbent using law to deal with the bumps in the night" Aylee said covering up for him since they all knew it was becoming an inconvenience
" you know what? I'm leaving now, I'm going to talk to Parrish and tell him he's the one taking the bodies" Lydia said sticking firm to her decision which they both knew she wasn't going back down from again
"what if he doesn't believe you? I wouldn't if you told me that" Stiles said trying to discourage her from doing it by planting seeds doubts in her mind as Aylee realised something which changed her mind on Lydia telling Parrish
" Stiles, you know better than I do that its always better when they know" she said thinking about how things were easier on her when she found out that she wasn't going crazy but was in fact on the edge of turning into a Banshee
" tell him, if you say you trust him then we trust you but take these in case he doesn't believe you at first" she said ripping out the drawings of him and the nemeton as she handed him to Lydia since she knew that Parrish believe in her powers
" well he should know that he owes me a jeep… what was that?" he said calling to Lydia as she walked back to her car before he turned his attention to Aylee to find out what had changed her mind suddenly
" I'm an empath remember? there was a reason she kept going back to wanting to tell him…. she likes him dummy!" she said when Stiles gave her a look that told her that he still wasn't getting it before she spelled it out for him
" ohhh…well at least she is moving from Aidan right? should we be worried that she keeps jumping from one almost bad guy to another?" he said thinking about Jackson the kanima,the twin alpha Aidan and now fire starter Parrish
" ok you have point but maybe we should more worried about what she might find when we do find the nemeton and the bodies" she said thinking about the best way to protect Stiles and prevent the other finding out about Donovan
Once they got to school Stiles decided to text Theo since Lydia and Parrish finding the bodies as it affected him to and because Aylee refused to text him or even save his number in her phone since her gut was still telling her not to trust him despite still having no evidence. Theo and Stiles were heading into the library were Aylee was sitting at a table looking through the Geogieva family book of shadows for a spell relating to what she had heard her mom talking about in her vision
" and you guys are sure thats where Parrish is taking the bodies?" Theo asked as him and Stiles got closer to the table where Aylee was she tried to hide the her family's book from him, for some reason her instincts were telling her not to let him see it
" he said thats what happens in his dreams" Stiles said remembering the dreams that Lydia had told him that Parrish had been having since his fellow deputy had tried to burn him alive due to the deadpool list
" plus I saw him taking the bodies there in my visions when we were trying to find the nemeton" she said putting away the book and her notebook into her bag before walking around the table so that she was leaning on it and was closer to the boys
" you know if Lydia finds the nemeton then she's also going to find Donovan…sorry" he said when he realised that he said the last part a little too loud causing Aylee to hit him on the arm in a not so gentle way
" and she's also going to find Josh" Stiles said pointing out that he wasn't the only one that had killed one of the chimeras, although he still felt that the circumstances of how they killed those chimeras since his was more fear filled than Theo's
" is it bad that I kinda left out because I have killed anyone? hey, I'm still better than my both parent…put together" she sad trying to lighten the mood as she turned to Stiles for the last part as he gave her a smile as he nudged her shoulder
" you know maybe she should… Lydia I mean, maybe she should find the bodies" Theo said when both Aylee and Stiles gave him a confused look since they thought he was talking about Aylee killing someone
" ok I may not care about her finding Josh's body or about what you did to him but I do if she finds about Donovan and Stiles" she said standing up straight to show that she was serious and not to be messed with
" you're not the kind of girl to bite her tongue are you?" he said turning to her as he thought about how they were the night they found Liam and Hayden, although she had returned back to her snarky self
" nope and here's another thing about me, I'm incredibly stubborn" she said knowing that she had defiantly inherited the Hale stubbornness from her father's side of the family as well their signature eye roll and temper
" I'm just saying I think that things are different now with Scott, especially after what he did to Corey" he said as they all thought about what he had done to Corey by tapping into his memories by stabbing his neck with his claws
" yeah you're not convincing me this is a good idea and in fact you're doing the opposite" she said noticing that Stiles was being abnormally quiet as she noticed that fear and panic were coming through their bond strong
" Listen I don't think he's going to blame us for defending ourselves… I know he's not going to blame you" he said trying to convince Stiles that this might be a good thing as he noticed that Aylee was narrowing her eyes at him, seeing through his act
Aylee quickly reassured Stiles and comforted him before heading off to class as she began to walked down the hall after getting her books out of her locker, she started to think about everything that Theo said in the library as she tried to work him out again as she felt that she was missing something. She was so deep in thought that she hadn't noticed someone was calling on her until they touched her arm causing her to grab their hand and twist it till she had them pressed against a locker
" oh my god, I am so sorry" she said when she realised that it was Theo who she had pinned to a locker as she let him go when she noticed that she was probably hurting him and had no real reason to despite what she wanted
" its probably my fault for scaring you and not so subtly sneaking up on you" he said wondering what she was thinking about so deep that she had drowned out everything going on around her
" why were you sneaking up on me? not that I don't love these little encounters of ours" she said placing both hands on her backpack to stop the urge to hit him again as she thought how much easier it would be to beat the truth out of him
" you dropped this in the library… so what does a 'to relinquish a witches powers' spell do?" he asked wondering what that had to do with anything since Stiles had said that she was in the library doing research
" it relinquish a witches powers and can help transfer them, kind of in the title there… not so bright for a werewolf are you?" she said as she tried to walk away from him, however he stopped her by stepping into her path to block her way
" you know this who big bad seer act is so infuriately… hot you know, especially when you act like you hate me" he said gently backing her into a locker so that he had her pinned as he began to play with one of her curls as she fought the urge to hit him
" its not an act at least not totally… is there something you wanted or do you usually pin innocent girls against lockers?" she said showing her normal amount of quip as she gestured to the lack of space between them
" I'm guessing you might have some ideas… you're not that innocent" he said leaning closer to her as she realised how wrong it felt to be this close to someone else other than Stiles, to be that close to kissing someone else other than Stiles
" why are you so set on the others finding out about Donovan? cause you don't care about them finding out about Josh" she said changing the subject as she realised that this might be the best time to catch him out
" I think that the less secret in this pack the better, whats the worse that can really happen?" he said focusing more on her since it seemed to him that she was beginning to respond to his advances despite using the subject as a distraction
" I know the worst that can happen and not as a seer but as Scott's sister….oh by the way this is more than a pack, its a family, its friendship so the quicker you get that the better ok?" she said with fake cheerfulness as she flashed him a smile and walked away from him as he stared after her in awe
All the way through Aylee's class she could sense that something was going as she felt the familiar buzz inside as she kept her eyes low so that no one would notice the change in them as she began to have a vision. She suddenly saw the school gym workout room where Mason and Corey were working out together as they tested how strong he was now a chimera, everything was going fine despite hitting a small bump in the road when Mason mention Corey talking to Scott about the changing he was going through. However things took a dramatic turn when Corey began to cough up a mixture of black blood and mercury as Mason tried to help by eventually deciding to call an ambulance before thinking it through probably, hesitated to lead him outside as they waited for the ambulance to arrive. Aylee was glad to see that she wasn't the only one to leave class to see why there was an ambulance on school grounds since it made it easier for her to slip away as she saw Scott and Theo talking to Mason. As soon as she saw Mason she was glad that she made a stop along the way to his gym locker
" hey listen to me, I saw what happened ok? there was nothing you could have done, this was on them…here I got this from your locker" she said handing him his t-shirt that he only really used for sport class
" thanks Aylee, I just feel bad like I should haven seen it coming…how did you get my combination?" he asked wondering how she did the things that she did but he liked that she was there as his friend when he most needed one
" I'm the assistant coach for the lacrosse team remember? Therefore I can get access to that stuff" she said knowing that coach wasn't big on security so she had easy access to his private files despite the fact it wasn't lacrosse season yet
" hey guys what the hell happened here?" Scott said as him and Theo pushed to the front of the crowd to see Aylee and Mason at the centre as he looked from them to Corey who was strapped to a gurney
" he just started to bleed everywhere, I don't… I don't know" Mason said completely panicked as he relived everything that had happened in his head to see if there was any signs that he should have noticed
" he's right, one minute they were working out and talking then the next Corey was coughing up the usually mixture. Vision!" she said gesturing to her eyes when they gave her a questioning look since they knew she wouldn't have been with them
" don't let them do it! don't let them kill me!" Corey said to the four of them as the paramedics loaded him into the ambulance so that they could take him to the hospital, they knew in an instantly who the 'they' was that Corey was referring to
" don't we have to follow him? we got to protect him right? Scott come on, Scott this is what you do! Aylee, help me here" Theo said when he noticed that he was barely getting a reaction from Scott who was beginning to tune out
" Scott, listen to me ok? Corey needs your help or otherwise the Dread Doctors are going to kill him for being a failure so go, both of you…now!" she said being direct as she could as he began to focus on her as she used her serious voice
Soon some of the teachers came out as they began to lead the large crowd of teens back to class as Aylee began to head to her next class which was with Lydia's mom, Mrs tried hard to focus on her class as she tried to fight off the effect of using her vision as she tries to keep up with her notes on the subject which was anthrax and its uses in Germany in WWII. Suddenly she noticed that Beth who was siting in front of her was chewing her nail in a nervous habit as she looked at a moon graph of the Perigee-syzygy which was otherwise known as the super moon.
" Beth please close your computer, I won't ask again…Beth? Beth!… Aylee?" Mrs Martin said as Aylee watched as Beth's nail broke off expose a mixture of black blood and mercury which caused her to leave class as Aylee decided to follow her to help
" please let me go ok? I need to go!" Aylee said low enough for her other classmates not to hear her as she pleaded with Lydia's mom to let her go instead of blocking her way
" If you need the restroom its one at a time and if you're planning on leaving class, I'd consider how easy you can be distract which lead to a decrease in your grades" she told knowing that her work could easily begin to suffer if she kept this up
" she needs help" Aylee said being straight with her as she thought about how the Dread Doctors could be on their ways to come and get rid of Beth because she was now a failing chimera
" not from you" she said knowing that whatever was going on with Beth was something that Aylee couldn't help with and she was also felt that that wasn't a good enough reason to compromise her educations
" you know! you know what's going on don't you?" she said as she realised that there was something different about the way she was refusing to let her go, she knew from experience that this kind of reaction only come from someone in the know
" I know I'd like to you to go through senior year with passing grades and go to a good college" she said refusing to actually acknowledge what she was talking about, Aylee realised that she was lucky that Melissa was different from other parents
" no thats not it, you know more than that…." she said realising they were going around in circle as she was getting more and more frustrated with this back and forth they were doing as Aylee decided to flash her seer purple eyes to confirm her theory
" I think you need to focus more on your school work, all of you" she said thinking that they were choosing to be involved in the supernatural going ons in Beacon Hills rather than that they were the only ones that could help innocent victims
" yeah I wish I could but its not that simple despite what you think so I really need to go" she said firmly as she walked out of the class as she tried to think of where Beth might be, she knew that every minute counted and hated that she wasted so much of it with Lydia'a mom
Aylee decided to go to Beth's locker since she knew thats where she would go if she was panicking about the fact that she just broke her nail clean off her hand to see that she was bleeding back and mercury, well actually she knew that she would probably go straight to Scott or Stiles for help.
" Beth, you ok?" Aylee said carefully as she didn't really know what kind of chimera she was which meant she could friendly and slightly harmless like Hayden and Corey were or she could be homicidal and crazy like Tracy was
" why are you talking to me? you don't know me, you don't know anything about your condition" she said a like a crazed and panicked as she wondered why the mysterious Aylee McCall was talking to her
" I think I might know more than you think, why don't you tell me about your condition" she said trying to get her to talk about it so that she could help her before the Dread Doctors arrived as she tried to focus on Beth's emotions
" my condition…my condition….my condition" Beth began to say over and over again as she closed her locker before starting to walk away from Aylee, it was like she was in kind of trance state but not as deep as Tracy had been
" hey! you need don't need to do this alone ok? I can hel-…are you kidding me?! Beth!" Aylee began to say to convince her to let her help before Beth threw Aylee into the lockers causing her to land on her already damage ribs
" no one can help me….especially you" she said she began to head toward the door, suddenly the Dread Doctors appeared behind Beth as one of them broke her neck in front of Aylee causing the blood to be splattered everywhere
Before Aylee had time to react to seeing someone being killed in front of her by the enemy she was suddenly pulled into a vision despite how much she was trying to resist it. Suddenly she was in the middle of the hospital car park where they kept the ambulances as she tried to look for the reason why she had to foresee this as the Dread Doctor appeared and as the leader used his his spike to stab what she was thought was midair until the invisible Corey appeared. He began to slump to the floor as the life began to drain away from him just as a fast as the blood and mercury were draining from his body as the Dread Doctors left the ambulance bay. As Aylee came out of the vision she held onto the near by lockers for support as she looked up and saw Beth's body laying there as students began to flood the halls to see what was going on. Aylee was beginning to get the feel that she just needed to get away from it as she began to walk away from Beth's body
" Ay? hey…hey what happened? whats wrong" Stiles said as he noticed Aylee walking towards him with tears filled eyes as they slowly began to fall down her cheeks, he knew something was wrong with her almost immediately when he saw her
" I can't… I hate this Stiles, I hate losing like this" she said thinking about everything that she had seen in last half hour as she faintly recognised that she was slipping into shock as she was beginning to feel overwhelmed by everything
" shhh, calm down and just talk to me" he said cupping her face into her hand while other was smoothing down her to comfort her, he knew she needed to calm if he was ever going to get a straight answer out of her rather than dazed rambles
" I'm not like Scott or you even and I try so hard to be but I can't… I can't deal another body you know another failure, I just can't!" she said as the tears began to fall fast as she was becoming more and more inconsolable as she ran away from him
Stiles was tore about what to do since he knew that Lydia was now in danger as she was with Jordan who would be coming to get Beth's body soon but he also knew and sense through their bond that Aylee needed him more than ever as he could feel her hurt and pain. He decided to call Lydia as he searched the school for Aylee so he could deal with the fact she appeared to spiral again
" Lydia, for the love of god answer your phone! there's another dead chimera so right now so right now probably not a great time to be alone with Parrish-" he said before he was cut off by an all to familiar voice that was coated with mixed emotions
" make that two dead chimera, the Dread Doctors got to Corey too" Aylee said as Stiles turned around to see a distraught Aylee sitting on the stairs as he took in how her face was tear streaked from her crying which meant it was also puffy and red
" Lydia, two dead chimeras! if you get in the way…Lydia, do not get in his way!" he said as he wondered what exactly Parrish would do to her considering what he had done to him and Aylee when they were watching Josh's body
" she'll be okay, if there one person Parrish doesn't want to hurt its Lydia but then again considering our track record who knows?" she said with a sad kind of cheerfulness as she thought about how death seemed to plague their lives right now
"hey you ok? what's going on with you?" he said as he noticed that her sketch book was opened to two newly sketched drawings of Corey and being killed by the Dread Doctors as he took it from her to get a better look of them
" we try so hard to help the people who are get caught in the crossfire but we always fail and people are still dying" she said thinking about what Beth's last words to her had been and just how right they felt in that moment
" I know I've been thinking about this to but I think that they would die anyway like their system might shut down" he said thinking about why the Dread Doctors always killed the failures rather than reversing the process
" before they…killed Beth, she told me that no one could help especially me and I think she right. I mean I could barely help myself" she said knowing that she was falling a part worse than she had when she was coming into her powers early
" you saw Beth being killed by the Dread Doctors? is this what this is about?" he said pulling her close to him so that she leaning her head on his shoulder as he pressed a kiss on the top of her head
" I don't know…Stiles I just can't deal with the amount of death we see on a daily basis, how many more people are going to die before we stop them?" she said thinking about how there was still two chimera unaccounted for out of the eleven holes
" I'm not sure but we will stop them ok? we always do" he said drawing her closer to him by wiping a fresh tear from her cheek as he tried to work out why she was a messy of emotions as he was reminded yet again of who she used to be before
" what if we can't? I mean we are barely holding on right now between Scott's asthma being back and Liam being kidnapped by the bad guys" she said slightly adding the other things that had been going on with their friends and pack
" we've been in worse situations than this, you saw the alpha pack and Darach" he said knowing that she had seen pretty much the whole story about both situations from everyones memory at one point
" yeah but none of them were experimenting on teenagers to create new supernatural creatures" she said a little frantically as she though about all of her visions and how they were all pointing to the fact that they might lose this fight
" where is this coming from?" he said sensing that this was less about the Dread Doctors and more about something else but he just couldn't work out that something was exactly as he clasped his hands around hers so that his touch comforted her
" its coming from the fact that I am seeing nothing good lately, I am getting visions of death and pain…so much pain and I just can't anymore" she said sounding more defeated then ever as he tried to work out what was causing this
" Ay, I'm worried about you ok? you're not making any sense babe" he said worried that there was something more going on with her as he remembered her vision of being back in Eichen house as he began to question if it was Dread Doctor related or not
" you know I had another vision of my mom in Russian, she said that my downfall was my own head… maybe she's right" she said as she picked her backpack up as she began to walk away from him as he tried to find somewhere quiet
Aylee headed to the boys locker room since she knew that no one was due to in there anytime soon as she tried to remember the different techniques that Derek had told her about that would help with control when she felt as though she was on the edge. She knew that certain ones weren't really made for a seer but for a werewolf so she decided that she would tried to mediate to focus on clearing her head and her emotions so that she could be centred and less crazed since she knew that everything such as the deaths she had seen and using her powers too much. Just as she was about go inside she heard the tail end of a conversation between Theo and the Sheriff
" I tried to fight him off but all I kept thinking was that I couldn't let him kill Stiles. I climbed the scaffolding and he started to pull me down then these support beams slide off and and I look down and one had went through him. I did't know what to do so I called 911 but the body was gone even the blood, everything! it was just gone and I didn't know what to do so I didn't do anything… Im sorry!" Theo said as Aylee tried to work it all out in her head as she looked around the corner to see the Sheriff giving him a hug to comfort the obviously distraught teen
" you just lied to the Sheriff about a murder you didn't commit, why?" she said waiting until the Sheriff had left to deal with Beth's body and witness before coming out of her hiding place as she leaned against a locker behind him
" because I didn't want Stiles to get in control with his dad plus…it was accident plus thats pack members do right? protect each other" he said wiping the tears from his eyes using his sleeves since he didn't want Aylee to see him crying
" so you were protecting him? wow thats actually kind of sweet of you, are you ok? you looked a little emotional back there? she said placing her bad on the bench as she walked closer to him to check on his since she didn't sense the right emotions
" yeah I did't really care whether or not he found out about him but I knew it would destroy Stiles…and you" he said trying to work out why she wasn't snarky and being snide to him like normal, although he hoped that she was finally giving into him
" and you care that much about me…and Stiles?" she said pretending that she was really into him as she lowered her voice so that it sounded seductive as she lured him closer to her since she knew that touch would be needed for this
" you more than him, I don't want to you get hurt in any way" he said playing with one of her curls before holding her hands as she resisted the urge to pull her hand away since she needed the connection as Theo watched as her eyes turned purple
Aylee was sitting in the backseat of Theo's car behind Scott and Theo as she tried to work out if this the past or the future as she recognised that they were wearing the same clothes, she realised it was the past down the time on Theo's phone that was in her eye line.
" in the glove compartment…it belonged to Stiles, he dropped it at the school" Theo said as Scott went into the glove compartment as he pulled out a wrench that was covered in mercury and black blood, Donovan's black blood
"dropped it when?" Scott asked as Aylee began to sense fear and worry coming from his as he began to wondered why it had blood on it as he thought about Stiles's weird behaviour lately
" when he killed Donovan" Theo said almost too bluntly for Aylee's likely as she considered finding out where or not she could connect with things during a vision since she really wanted to connect with Theo's jaw using her fist, hard
" what are you talking about?" Scott said in disbelief as he tried to think about all the reasons why Theo might think Stiles had killed Donovan since he knew that Stiles would never actually kill anyone
" you remember his shoulder right? you smelled the blood?" he asked remembering the night when they had all gathered in the McCall household to read the Dread Doctors book when Aylee had taken Stiles upstairs to her room to treat his wound
"it was the jeep, he said the jeep hood fell on him" Scott said remembering that he had asked both Aylee and Stiles what had happened to his shoulder and how he asked them at different times when they were apart from each other
" no no it was Donovan, he went after Stiles at the library. I only saw the end of it, when I saw what Stiles was doing I couldn't stop him…I shouldn- I shouldn't be telling you this, you should hear this from him" he said getting emotional again as Aylee tried to work out what game he was playing on
" tell me" Scott said weakly knowing that there was a reason why Stiles hadn't told him this since he knew it had to have been weeks since Donovan died, to Scott he need to know the truth one way or another
" I saw Donovan go down, Stiles hit him with the wrench and he just kept hitting him. Maybe it was because he threatened this dad or maybe it was because Stiles thought he had to keep going to defend himself but he just… kept hitting him" Theo said making Aylee really want to hit him as he managed to bring tears to his eyes
"thats not possible" Scott said still denial which actually somewhat comforted that Scott wasn't believe any of his lies since him and Stiles had been best friends ever since they were little children
" he crushed that kid's skull, I heard it cracking. It splintered. By the time I pulled Stiles off him…Donovan's head was caved in. It didn't look real, I kept telling myself it was self defence but Scott I'm sorry… I've never seen something like it, I've seen anyone that angry before. You should talk to Stiles…You should talk to him" Theo said now full crying as Aylee began to experiencing of her own high amount anger
Aylee was pulled out of the vision as she pulled her hand back with such force that it caused Theo to step back from the shock of her sudden change in behaviour as he noticed the hate and the anger in her eyes, as she took her own step backwards. Aylee used to the same control hand gesture that she had seen her mom use in her vision as she raised her hands outstretched and open as she blasted him with her light causing him to crash into the lockers behind him
" what the hell, Aylee!… I'm bleeding" he said checking his shoulder where her light had touched him as there was red blood stain forming on his t-shirt from the burned skin surprising both them since usually her light didn't physically harm someone
" you'll heal plus I'm just getting started! you son of…! you little di…you lying mother fuc- Raeken!" she said trying to find a pg13 way of expressing her emotions as she blasted him but this time by accident, although she was still glad that she did
" hey! stop that! its hurts like a lot…what has gotten into you?" he said still on the floor recovering from her blows as she walked over to him and kneeled down so that she was more to his level
" so which guy are you? the sweet protective one that helps others out or the manipulative jerk who twists the truth for his own personal gain?" she asked making sure that he could tell that she wasn't messing around here as her hands began to glow
" Aylee you don't understand ok? there are you don't know" he said as he tried to think of some way to turn this change turn in events as he realised that she must have seen something when she touched him hence the purple eyes
" no you don't understand! you have no idea who you just pissed off or what I am capable off. Watch your back Theo because I promise I will come for you" she said knowing that she was going to make him suffer for what he was doing to the ones she loved
After that Aylee decided to go for a walk to calm herself down, however she soon go a vision of Hayden being injected by some mysterious liquid by one of the Dread Doctors so she decided to text Scott and Liam to let them know what was going to happen. Soon Stiles tracked her down so that they head over to the animal clinic to deal with the whole Hayden thing since Scott had texted him while they were on their way to animal clinic themselves. As soon as he saw her, he knew that something had happened to her since she had walked from him as she was radiating anger and was abnormally quiet on the way to animal clinic. When they had gotten there it had began to rain as they had got out of the jeep as Aylee tried not to lash out at Theo again as she saw him walking into the clinic with Liam and Hayden
" hey sorry I had trouble starting the jeep again, the thing's barely hanging on and it took me a while to find Ay but I still can't get in touch with Lydia…Scott?" Stiles said over the rain as they began to get soaked by it as Aylee sense what was coming
" Scott, do me a favour and think before you speak or do anything stupid?" she said placing her now very wet hair to once side so that it covered her right shoulder as he showed them wrench that Theo had kept causing Aylee to close her eyes with dread
"where did you get that?" Stiles said carefully as he looked between Aylee and Scott noticing the looks they were giving him, he knew that this was what Aylee had been trying to both of them about
" this is yours? why didn't you tell me?" he said as he realised that he couldn't quite bring himself to actually say what he was talking about since he knew that it made it more real for both of them
" I was going to" Stiles said thinking about how the conversation they had outside of Eichen a few weeks ago about self defence and how they couldn't kill those they were protecting, he knew it stopped him from telling him
" why didn't you tell me when it happened?" Scott said forgetting that Aylee was there as Stiles gave her a look as she tried to say in her own head since she was weak from all the visions and of the day's events
" I couldn't" he said still not sure why he didn't tell anyone and he knew that he probably wouldn't have told Aylee if she hadn't come around his that night but he was glad she did especially now
" Scott you didn't see him after it had happened, he was a complete wreak over it" she said steeping closer to them as she felt the need to defend her boyfriend as she thought about how he had acted when she stormed into his room that night
" you killed him? you killed Donovan? and you knew?!" he said not sure what hurt more the fact that his best friend has something as vicious as brutally murder someone or that his sister kept it from him which was surprising wondering her views
" of course I knew, do you have any idea how hard it is to keep secrets from someone like?!" she said getting annoyed that he still didn't understand that she saw things with no warning whenever she touched someone
"Scott, he was going to kill my dad and he threatened to hurt Aylee. Was I supposed to let him?" Stiles said remembering the story Donovan told him about his dad and how he threatened to go after Aylee when he picked his phone when she called him
" you weren't supposed to do this! none of us are" he said now looking Aylee as he began to wonder if the reason she was condoning the murder he had committed because she was becoming more like her murderous parents
" I'm sorry was that aimed at me? do I need remind you about Kira or how Lydia is learning hoe to fight?" she said now going on the offend rather the defend since she had been the least violent one in the groups lately and that was saying something
" wait, do you think I had a choice?" Stiles said after thinking about Scott's previous statement and how it sounded as he was thankful that Aylee was there to give him a moment to think the confrontion through better
" There's always a choice." Scott said knowing that Stiles was smart enough to have came up with some plan to peacefully stop Donovan rather than simply killing you
" for you maybe but its never that simple and you know it" She said thinking about the library where it had happened as she realised that there was one outcome for that and if she was honesty she was glad that it was Stiles who had survived
"Yeah she's right, I can't do what you can Scott. I know you wouldn't have done it. You probably would have just figured something out right?" he said knowing that he didn't have the strength or the power of a werewolf
" I try." he said knowing there was a reason why his yellow beta eyes had never turned blue, he knew there was a fine line between fighting for your life and fighting to take one, as he thought about how he almost killed an assassin last year
" Yeah because you're Scott McCall! You're the True Alpha! Guess what, all of us can't be True Alpha's. Some of us have to make mistakes. Some of us have to get our hands a little bloody sometimes. Some of us are human!" he said as Aylee looked down as she tried not to show the hurt in face as she thought about how she wasn't completely human either
" So you had to kill him?" he asked wanting him to saw that he did as he thought that he might be making Aylee realise that this was everything she had been against for so long
" no he didn't but then he wouldn't be stand here, it was him or Donovan" she said knowing who she would want to win that fight in a heartbeat as Scott turned his fierce alpha gaze to make her be quite but it wasn't working
"then when he was finished with me, he was gonna kill my dad" Stiles said remembering how he had told him that he wasn't going to kill and instead eat his legs so that he would paralysed like Donovan's dad was
" The way that it happened, there's a point where, it's just, it's not self-defense anymore." he said as Aylee felt herself getting more and more furious towards him as she could hear pieces of Theo behind his words
" Scott maybe you should ask him what happened rather believing second hand stories!" she said now understanding why Stiles was so angry at him as she felt like yelling at him then knocking some sense into him
"What are you even talking about? Ay, what second hand stories? you know I didn't have a choice Scott… You don't even believe me do you?" he said looking between them as he tried to figure out what she knew that he didn't
" I want to."he said knowing that he would love nothing more than to give in to himself and believe what Stiles was saying but in the back of his head he could see how upset that nights event had made Theo as he talked about how bad it had been
" Okay, alright so believe me then. Scott, say you believe me. Say it. Say you believe me." Stiles said as he began to plead to Scott as Aylee's tears began to mix in with the rain on her face as she realised that this was why he didn't tell Scott
" Stiles, we can't kill people that we're trying to save." he said saying the same thing that he had told him outside of Eichen house as he stick to his point more firmly as he finally showed them some spark in him rather being defeated as he looked
" Say you believe me. Aylee does so why can't you?" he said knowing that his biggest hurdle should have been the girl who disowned her long lost father for killing the enemy and not his extremely noble best friend. He stepped forward at the same time as Scott stepped back as he looked at the wrench that Stiles was holding more offensively
" oh my god! Scott, he isn't going to hurt you!" Aylee yelled as she realised how ridiculous his reaction was as both boys turned to look at her probably to see how this argument was affecting her as the girlfriend and sister as well as a seer/ empath
" We can't kill people! Do you believe that? cause I know that you do Ay, so much!" Scott said trying to show them both how wrong it was that he killed someone in the place than showed no remorse or guilty after
" don't do that, don't put me in the middle where I need to pick sides" she said crying hard now despite her voice being low and slightly cold towards him since she knew that decision would kill her
" so What do I do about this? What do you want me to do okay? Scott, just tell me how to fix this alright? Please just tell me what do you want me to do?" he said knowing that he needed to make this right between them in any way he could
" don't worry about Lydia, we'll find her and I'll look after Aylee. Maybe you should talk to your dad" he said basically dismissing him and disincluding him in the group investigation as he turned to walk away from them
" hey I promise I will fix this and it explain to you but right now I need to say something to him" she said to Stiles as she kissed his cheek since she knew that she couldn't bite her tongue anymore as she headed inside the clinic
" Aylee, what are you doing in here? I'm busy" Scott said coldly towards her as he looked back towards the door when he heard it being reopened to find her rain soaked adoptive sister looking at him with pure anger in her eyes
" I know which is why I'll make this quick, I know what Theo told you about what happened to Donovan" she said knowing that Theo was probably listen to their conversation but she was hoping that she had taught him not to cross her
" and what? you're here to defend him?" he said wondering what was going on with her or she was that blindly in love with Stiles that she couldn't see what he had done to Donovan was wrong
" there's nothing to defend, it was self defence and he didn't kill him that way. Donovan was accidentally impaled with a piece of scaffolding..see?" she said taking out the drawings she had done of the vision of that night she had gotten from Stiles
"why would Theo lie?" he said shocking her as she gave a dry humourless chuckle at him as she realised that her violent tendencies were caused by stupid people and their stupid questions, she knew that the truth would come out when they found the bodies
" why you would believe someone you've only known for five minutes over someone thats been your best friend your whole life?" she said throwing her drawings onto the floor as she began to run towards the jeep where a shocked Stiles was waiting
" you shouldn't have done that, now he's going to push you out too" he said as Aylee got into the jeep and turned herself so that she was looking as him so that she could see how this was affecting him rather than relying their bond
" I needed to and he can try… listen theres something you need to know about this whole thing" she said as she tried to occupy her hands by fixing her hair since they were shaking from the cold rain storm
" what? what do you know that you're not telling me?" he said remembering the comment she had about Scott listening to second hand stories and how it had made no sense to him but seemed to make sense to Scott
" Theo told Scott that you beat Donovan to death with the wrench, he said that you were in fit of rage. He even cried, you don't feel badly about temporary injuring him" she said thinking back on the burn wound she had made by using her light on him
" which is why he thinks I had choice because he thinks I killed him in cold blood…" he said wondering how Scott could that about him or how he could pick Theo over him
" there's more, your dad thought Theo killed Donovan so he told him how he died but he said he did it and not you" she said sweeping his now very flat wet hair to one side rather than leaving it in a mess on his forehead as he leaned into her touch
