Chapter 9: A Kink In A Perfect Plan

Izna's POV

After debating the entire night, I was standing on the porch of Stiles' house in the morning. I was unsure about how am I gonna explain this to Stiles but I needed to tell someone and Stiles is the only person I could talk to about this. I wasn't even sure how he is going to react to this news. He definitely wouldn't be happy. Still I knocked on the door. Stiles opened the door almost immediately. He sighed in relief when he saw me standing there. Stiles surprised me by engulfing me in a tight hug.

"Thank god you are here" said Stiles letting go of me. "I was actually heading towards coach's house to meet you."

Stiles sighed out heavily through his mouth as he let me in. "Something happened last night, at the Sheriff's station." Stiles began to say and I immediately knew what he was talking about.

"I know Gerard killed Matt." I stated and Stiles nodded his head.

"Your dream, it actually came true. He is the Kanima's master now, isn't he? Gerard is controlling it" stated Stiles with surety.

"About that -" I said making Stiles frown at me with confusion. Suddenly the Kanima entered the house through the open window and wrapped itself around my legs. Stiles' eyes went wide and jaws dropped on the floor.

"We need to have a little chat."

Third Person's POV

"Derek - Can you hear me? Derek - Can you hear me? I need you to answer me, Derek. Derek! We don't have much time." Suddenly Derek heard an air piercing sound that hurt his ears. He snapped open his eyes and gasped loudly. He saw Dr. Deaton and got confused.

"That sound - What was it?" asked Derek and Dr. Deaton answered him by showing the object. Derek got up but immediately stumbled. Dr. Deaton helped him so that he wouldn't fall.

"You're gonna be weak for several hours." Dr. Deaton informed Derek like a doctor would a patient. Derek looked down and saw the whole in the wooden floor.

"It actually happened" said Derek as realization came down on him.

"Don't worry. You're still an Alpha. But, as usual, not a particularly competent one" said Dr. Deaton without any hesitation.

"Where is he?" asked Derek about Peter with a little growl.

"I wish I could tell you" said Dr. Deaton indirectly telling Derek that he doesn't know.

"Then how about you tell me what you're doing here, and why you're helping me." Derek demanded answer.

"Helping your family actually used to be a pretty important part of my life. Helping you was a promise I made to your mother" said Deaton pretty clearly.

"You're the one my sister talked about. She said you're a - kind of adviser?" Derek remembered Laura telling Derek about him.

"She was right. And I have some advice that you need to listen to very closely right now. What Peter managed to do doesn't come without a price. He'll be physically weak, so he'll rely on the strength of his intelligence, his cunning. He's gonna come at you, Derek. He'll try to twist his way inside your head, preying on your insecurities. He'll tell you that he's the only way you can stop Gerard. Do not trust him" said Dr. Deaton with strong tone of voice.

"I don't trust anyone" said Derek straight away.

"I know. If you did, you might be the Alpha you like to think you are. And unfortunately, the one person you should trust doesn't trust you at all" said Deaton and Derek immediately understood who is he talking about.

"Scott."

"You need to trust him Derek. I've known Gerard for a long time. He won't hesitate to hurt someone innocent to get what he wants. And you particularly has a certain innocent girl to worry about. If Gerard finds out about her-" Derek immediately cut him off.

"He will never know" said Derek making Deaton sigh out a little.

"All I know is that Gerard always has a plan. Something tells me - it's gonna go exactly the way he wants it to in the end."

Izna's POV

Stiles has been pacing for past half an hour in his bedroom. My eyes followed his movements as I sat on his bed and damn, it actually started to give me a headache. The Kanima was still with me, actually sort of wrapped around me as if protecting me. It got this demeanor in it that it would kill anyone and anything that poses as a threat to me. The Kanima hasn't turned back into Jackson since last night. And it was a good thing because I have no idea what to tell Jackson. How to explain everything to him? I thought once I tell Stiles everything he would help me with that but the way he was hyperventilating and going crazy, it seemed that he himself would need help with stabilizing first.

"Stiles would you please stop. Looking at you is giving me a headache now." I complained rolling my eyes at him. Stiles stopped and glared at me.

"And you know what looking at you is doing to me right now" said Stiles motioning at me and the Kanima. "I am about to get a heart attack here."

"And aren't you feeling disgusted having this thing wrapped around you?"

"It's just protecting me Stiles and it's not that bad." I said shrugging my shoulders at him.

"I can't believe you just said that" said Stiles shaking his head to himself.

"What? You would rather Gerard be his master. You have any idea how many people he would have killed by now." I asked raising my eye brows at him.

"I know and yes, it's a good thing that Gerard isn't controlling it but-"

"No buts Stiles. Stop being such a drama queen." I interrupted him. "Now are you gonna help me explain everything to Jackson or not?"

"I tried to explain everything to him once before but Jackson didn't believe me" said Stiles dropping himself on the chair.

"He will now." I said confidently. Suddenly Stiles thought of something and went rigid.

"What is it?" I asked wondering about it worriedly.

"Gerard killed Matt to break his bond with the Kanima and become it's master. What if he tries to kill you now?" asked Stiles and it got me thinking as well.

"Funny, I didn't think about that at all." I admitted truthfully. Stiles sighed out with hopelessness.

"You have any idea what Derek's gonna do when he finds out about this?"

"I didn't think about that either." I said and looked at Stiles with pleading eyes.

"That's why you aren't gonna tell him about it, right?" I asked hopefully but Stiles rolling his eyes at me.

"It doesn't matter if I tell him or not. He's gonna find out about it anyway. It's freaking impossible to keep anything from that guy" said Stiles and I knew he was saying the truth.

"This is a freaking disaster" said Stiles sighing out heavily.

"Hey, things could have been a lot worse."

"I doubt that" said Stiles. "We have to tell Scott."

"Are you sure that's a good idea? He must be busy dealing with his mom." I said and yes Stiles told me that his mom found out about everything last night. Thankfully Stiles' dad was still oblivion to everything.

"We don't have another option here. If Gerard really tries to kill you, you would need the pack to protect you" said Stiles and I knew he is right again. I nodded my head.

"Fine, where is Scott?" I asked. Stiles texted someone and received a text within a few seconds.

"He is at the clinic right now" said Stiles.

"Alright then, let's go."

Third Person's POV

"Sweetheart" said Gerard as he came into Allison's room. She was still grasping the idea that her mother was no more.

"I don't wanna talk" said Allison at once.

"I understand. I'm not sure if there's anything I can say. I won't pretend to know what you're going through" said Gerard being sweet and kind.

"Then leave" said Allison straight away.

"Of course. I just wanted to give you something from your mother. Partly because I couldn't help noticing that things have been kind of difficult between you two. But it can wait" said Gerard making Allison immediately interested.

"What? What is it?" asked Allison eagerly.

"No, really, sweetheart, it can wait. You get some rest" said Gerard pretending to give Allison some time and space when he really wants her to be interested.

"What is it?" asked Allison with strong tone of voice this time.

"As you know, your mother wrote a suicide note to explain away our difficult situation to the police. She wrote this note to explain it to you. If I give this to you, you have to destroy it immediately. You burn it. You promise?" said Gerard.

"Yes." Allison agreed without understanding his manipulation here.

"I want you to know she asked me to read it. I told her I shouldn't, that it was private between the two of you. But she wanted my thoughts. As I said before, I don't know what you're going through. I wasn't close to my own mother. But reading this made me sorry I hadn't tried to be. Because if this were my mother, if these words were written for me, I don't know how I could sit still until someone paid for her death. Any pity I'd have for Derek and his pack would be burned out by a white - hot desire for retribution, or a kind of blood and destruction that would have Derek and his wolves howling not for mercy, but for their own sweet deaths."

Izna's POV

Stiles and I entered the animal clinic as the Kanima followed me. When we got inside, I saw not only Scott but Issac there as well. Now there is no way Derek wouldn't find out about the Kanima. When the boys turned around to look at us, their eyes widened immediately. Oh dear lord. This is going to be one hell of a conversation.

"Hey Scott, Issac" said Stiles over cheerfully. He followed everyone's gaze and looked back at me and the Kanima. I waved at the boys as well with a little awkward smile.

"What the hell is this?" Scott and Issac asked together. They seem to have turned pale out of fear.

"Guys, you need to listen to us right now." I said to Scott and Issac. Then Stiles and I told them about my dreams and how they are coming true and then how I bonded with the Kanima instead of Gerard. And also about our supposed latest problem which is Gerard trying to kill me to take control over the Kanima.

"This is a freaking disaster" said Scott panicking a little. Okay a lot.

"I said the same thing" quipped in Stiles.

"So you are a seer?" asked Issac but it sounded more like a statement.

"We think" said Stiles.

"Have you seen Gerard killing you?" asked Scott and I shook my head in response.

"Not yet."

"Maybe it won't happen." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"Of course we wouldn't let it happen but we can't take any risk here. Izna, you need to get out of the town immediately" said Scott with strong tone of voice.

"And go where?" I asked right away.

"Don't you have anyone outside of Beacon hills?" asked Issac.

"No." I said at once.

"Well then, I am telling Derek everything. He would know what to do" said Issac and he ran out of the clinic.

"Issac wait." I yelled after him but he didn't listen. I looked back at Scott and Stiles.

"Derek's gonna be pissed." I said more to myself than to the boys.

"That's an understatement" said Stiles.

"Let's just talk to Jackson and see what he wants before Derek comes here." I said. Stiles and Scott nodded their heads. I looked at the Kanima and thought about it turning back into Jackson. Very soon the Kanima started to change. Here we go.

Third Person's POV

"Derek! Derek!" Issac yelled as he arrived at their hidden spot. He found Derek, sitting quietly. Derek was trying to regain his strength. Boyd and Erica were there with him.

"What?" Derek asked Issac with calm tone of voice. He didn't even bother to open his eyes.

"What happened to you?" asked Issac seeing that his alpha wasn't looking so great.

"I am fine" said Derek. "You wanna say something." Derek knew that from Issac's fast heartbeat. He didn't tell anyone about Peter yet. When Erica and Boyd asked him about what happened, he didn't provide an answer to them either.

"Yes, something happened. It's about Izna" said Issac with anxious tone of voice. Derek opened his eyes this time and looked straight at Issac.

"What happened?"

Izna's POV

"Jackson, please say something. Your silence is suffocating us." I said. Scott, Stiles and I told Jackson everything but he didn't saying anything in response.

"I don't remember anything" said Jackson after staying quiet for a while longer. "I know everything you are telling me is true but I don't remember anything."

"And you don't have to remember them. We are gonna try to find a way to turn you into a werewolf. The legend says it's possible." I said being positive about it.

"But what if you can't do that" asked Jackson and no one could really deny it confidently that this plan wouldn't fail. "Derek's gonna kill me, isn't he?"

"No, no, No one's gonna kill you. I won't let anyone. I promise." I said hoping Jackson would trust me on this.

"That is if Gerard doesn't kill you first" quipped in Stiles. Scott and I rolled our eyes at that.

"Stiles, that wasn't helpful. At all." I said to him as I saw Jackson's eyes widened upon hearing that.

"What is he saying?" Jackson asked.

"Nothing. He is just being sarcastic." I said to Jackson.

"Am not." Stiles defended himself. Before Stiles could say anything else, I continued the conversation.

"Jackson, I don't wanna control you and I certain don't want you to remain a Kanima your entire life. But we need time to figure out exactly how to help you. Meantime, you are going to stay out of Beacon Hills. You are leaving town right away." I said surprising not only Jackson but Stiles and Scott as well.

"What?" asked Scott shocked.

"Think about it Scott, if Gerard somehow manages to kill me, he would be able to control the Kanima then. But if Jackson isn't in town then he wouldn't have anyone to control." I said reasoning with them.

"If your life is in danger then there is no way I am leaving town" said Jackson standing up on his feet.

"Jackson, you turn into a weapon of vengeance not a guardian angel." I pointed it out.

"It doesn't matter. I have to protect you" said Jackson with strong tone of voice.

"Jackson it's the bond speaking. Trust me, getting out of town is in your best interest." I said before Jackson could say anything, Derek entered the room with Issac.

"He is staying" announced Derek. He obviously heard what we were talking about.

"If you are willing to protect her then you are staying in town" said Derek looking straight at Jackson who nodded his head. "But if you even think about hurting her, I am going to find a way to kill you and rip you limb from limb" threatened Derek.

"I would never hurt her. If you don't know yet, we are bonded" said Jackson not fearing Derek. The alpha stepped closer to Jackson and stood nose to nose.

"Bonded or not. You are just her bodyguard Jackson. Keep that in mind" said Derek with threatening tone of voice. What the hell is this? Why is Derek being so territorial? Perhaps it's an alpha thing. Because, others didn't seem that surprised to see Derek act so protectively over me.

"Okay, you two, take it down a notch." I said getting in between Derek and Jackson and pushing them away from each other. I looked at Derek and said-

"Look, I am pretty sure that Gerard is going to come after me. After all I put a kink in his perfect plan. And I appreciate that you are all trying to help me and want to keep me safe but I can't let anyone get hurt because of me. And I am not talking about Jackson only. I mean all of you. I don't want anyone to get hurt. If Gerard comes after me, I will deal with him myself." I said with strong tone of voice and with confidence. Everyone kept staring at me.

"That just went in one ear and out the other, didn't it?" I said realizing it.

"Yeah" said everyone in unison and I rolled my eyes to myself.

Third Person's POV

"Stop, please Allison stop." Erica screamed in pain as an arrow pierce through her skin again. Allison along with her father captured Erica and Boyd. Allison knew about Derek's hiding place from Scott. She led her father and his men there and found out Boyd and Erica. The werewolves ran but couldn't escape the Argents. They were captured soon. Not listening to her pleadings at all, Allison was about to shoot an arrow at Erica's heart, when someone cut the string of Allison's bow.

"Dad?" Allison groaned in protest. Chris Argent was shocked to see his daughter like this.

"You owe me a new bow" said Allison and she sounded quite heartless.

"You owe me an explanation" said Chris with stern tone of voice.

"For what? I caught them. Me" said Allison proudly.

"Caught. came very close to kill. And that's not the way we do this" said the older hunter.

"Maybe it's not the way you do it. I think my way worked out pretty well" said Allison not regretting almost killing two teenagers about her age.

"Allison-" Chris was interrupted as Allison called someone.

"Hey, grandpa, it's me. We got two werewolves from Derek's pack. Call us back. What?" Allison asked as she saw her father giving her a look.

"It's just the first time I've heard you call him that" said Chris Argent.

Allison shrugged her shoulders and walked away. Chris Argent despite being a hunter himself, didn't like it at all what his father was doing and what he was making Allison do. This shouldn't be like this. It was wrong. Very wrong. Chris Argent realized that, he needed to do something about it before things get too out of control. Before he loses Allison as well. Erica and Boyd were taken away. The Argents would keep them hostage and god knows do what with them. It was not difficult to understand that they were going to be a bait to catch Derek. Little did Erica and Boyd know that Derek wasn't the only one Gerard wants to get to? Ever since Izna bonded with the Kanima right in front of him, Gerard has been trying to find out everything about her. And unfortunately he now knows what she is to Derek and the pack. And something else that no one knows. Something that Izna kept a secret for a long time. And he was gonna use it against her. Then he is gonna use her against Derek. His plan maybe a little changed but it was definitely still in motion. If possible, the new plan is more vicious than the previous one. Meaning, it ensures that more people will die in this. And there is just no way that the plan wouldn't succeed. It was only a matter of time and patience now before Gerard gets what he wants.
