I was on the roof of the film store lying on my stomach and watching the scene below me, a wild animal had broken into the store and killed one of the workers but for some reason it left Jackson alive and Lydia, they thought it was a mountain lion but I knew better, a cop car pulled up and Stiles's dad got out of the car, I narrowed my eyes and could faintly see Stiles in the passenger side, the sherrif walked towards the very annoyed Jackson and I decided to listen in "What part of I'm fine are you having trouble grasping? I wanna go home" Jackson exclaimed
"Yeah and I understand that" the sheriff said calmly "No you don't, which actually blows my mind because it should be a pretty big concept to grasp from a minimum wage rent-a-cop like you. Okay, now I wanna go home!" Jackson shouted, I growled and noticed Stiles had gotten out of the car and looked very pissed, they brought the dead body out on a stretcher covered my a white blanket and I looked back at Scott and Derek "You starting to get it?" Derek asked "I get that he's killing people but I don't get why" Scott replied shaking his head
"I mean this isn't standard practice right? I mean we don't go out every night killing people do we?" he asked "No, were predators. Were not supposed to be killers" Derek said "Then why is he a killer?" I asked a little calmer than' my brother "That's what were going to find out" Derek said, he turned around and started walking while Scott and I trailed behind.
"You know we have lives too" Scott said as we entered Derek's home "No you don't" he said making his way up the stairs "Yes we do" Scott exclaimed, Derek paused and turned on the stairs to face us "I don't care about what you say about him making us his pets" Scott said "Part of his pack" Derek corrected "Whatever. I have homework to do, and I have to got to a parent teacher conference tomorrow because I'm failing Chemistry" Scott said "Do you wanna do homework or do you wanna not die?" Derek asked, Scott sighed in annoyence
"You have less than' a week until the next full moon if you don't kill with him he kills you" Derek said "Okay seriously? Who made up these rules?" Scott exclaimed "It's a right of passage into his back, you kill first and then Sarah on the full moon after" Derek explained "You know what else is a right of passage? Graduating from high school and you don't have to kill anyone to do it. Why can't you just find him yourself? Why can't you just sniff him out when he's human?" Scott asked
"Because his human scent could be entirely different it has to be you two, you have a connection with him a link that you can't understand. If I can help you control them then maybe you can find him" Derek exclaimed "If we help you, can you stop him? Stop him for good?" I asked hopefully, I was usually quiet around these two because they usually sorted things out on their own and I listened and agreed..that and I didn't like the idea of getting in the middle of two male werewolves "Not alone, were stronger in numbers. A pack makes the individual more powerfull" Derek said "How are we supposed to help if we have no idea what were doing?" Scott asked
"Because I'm going to teach you, d'you remember what happened that first night when you got shot in the arm? Right after you were hit?" Derek asked, Scott nodded "Yeah I changed back" he said, Derek came back down the stairs "Mmm, and right after he hit you with his car?" he asked, Scott nodded "What's the common denominator?" Derek asked, Scott shrugged and Derek grabbed his hand before crushing and breaking the bones, Scott winced and screamed as he fell to his knees and something clicked in my brain, I started growling and my vision turned red "Calm down Sarah he'll heal" he said casually, I felt my fingernails growing and I growled louder
"It still hurts" Scott exclaimed as Derek let him go "And that's what keeps you human..pain" he said, Scott's bones started to re-heal but somehow I found myself lunging at Derek, he easily saw it coming and threw me onto the ground, I whimpered at the pain that ran through my back and I felt myself shifting back to normal "Maybe you will survive, but your sister needs to control her anger, especially when it comes to fighting other wolves" he said giving me an' annoyed look, I sat up and slowly got to my feet "I don't care who I'm taking on asshole if they hurt anyone I love I'm going to try and kill them" I exclaimed angrily, he rolled his eyes and started to walk upstairs again.
The Next Day...
"Just a friendly reminder, the parent/teacher conferences are tonight. Students below a C average are required to attend, I won't name you because the shame and self disgust should be enough punishment. Has anyone seen Scott McCall?" The Chemistry teacher asked while looking directly at Stiles, he looked up and had a hilighter lid in his mouth, the classroom door opened and everybody stared as Jackson walked in, I had to control my anger around him because everytime I did see him what he said to Stiles's dad kept coming into my head,
the teacher walked over to him and leaned down "Hey Jackson, if you need to leave early for any reason, you let me know" he said, I narrowed my eyes "What so just because he nearly got attacked by a 'Mountain lion'..." I put air quotes on the word mountain lion "...he get's special treatment?" I asked angrily, everybody was facing me at this point "Miss McCall you are a very cold person" the teacher said before walking to the front of the class
"Everyone start reading chapter 9. And Mr Stilinski, try putting the hilighter down between paragraphs, it's Chemistry not a coloring book" he said, I looked at Stiles who was sat at the desk to my left and smiled, he spat the lid up into the air before catching it with his hand and putting it back onto the hilighter "Can I ask you a question?" Styles asked leaning closer to Danny who was sat in front of him "No" Danny replied "Well I'm going to anyway. Did Lydia show up in your home room today?" Stiles asked, Danny sighed "No" he said
"Can I ask you another question?" Stiles asked "Answer still no" Danny replied annoyed "Does anybody know what happened to her and Jackson last night?" Stiles asked ignoring Danny's answer "He wouldnt' tell me" Danny replied obviously effected by it "But he's your best friend" Stiles said confused, I rolled my eyes and Danny shrugged slightly "One more question" Stiles said "What?" Danny exclaimed quietly "Do you find me attractive?" Stiles asked, I started to laugh quietly but I had to hold it back when Stiles fell out of his chair
"You okay?" I asked giggling as he sat back down "Yeah, hey d'you know where Scott is today?" he asked, I shook my head "I really don't, I mean I came to school with him this morning and I havent seen him since" I replied, he nodded and was silent for a moment "What was that blow up on Jackson about?" he asked curiously, I sighed and shook my head "It was nothing" I replied, he raised his eyebrows and I rolled my eyes "Seriously it was nothing, don't worry about it" I said reasuringly, he nodded and turned back around.
I looked around the hallway nervously before pulling out my phone and dialling Scott's number "Hey Sarah what's up?" he greeted, I rolled my eyes "Don't even start Scott where the heck are you?" I asked annoyed "I'm with Alison, it's her birthday and she's a little nervous about her age so I suggested we ditch for a day. Is that okay?" he asked, I chuckled
"Yes it's fine, tell her happy birthday for me and that I'll be your alibi for the day" I replied "Thanks sis you're the best" he said, I nodded "Yeah I'm a frickin' hero, now remember you have the parent meeting thing after school with mom so don't be later. Other than' that have a good time and don't knock her up" I said amused "Thanks for the trust Sarah, bye" he said, I hung up the phone and rolled my eyes "Hey Sarah" a familiar but very unwanted voice greeted, I groaned "Hey Derek, watcha doin' in the school?" I asked, he shrugged
"Needed to have a little talk with Jackson, but don't worry he's still in one piece" he said before leaving, I glanced at the locker room door and sighed while having a mental battle with myself "This needs to be done" I muttered walking in, I looked around to make sure nobody was here before I looked for Jackson, I found him leaning agains't the lockers with his eyes clenched shut "Hey Jackson" I said leaning agains't the metal shelves, his eyes snapped open and he glared "What do you want? What are you even doing in here?" he asked, I shrugged
"I though we should have a talk. Obviously Derek's already freaked you out so I'll get to it" I said walking towards him, as soon as I mentioned Derek's name his heart beat started racing "About what?" he asked nervously, I tilted my head "Well, last night you kind of insulted the sherrif didn't you?" I asked, he shook his head "No.." I cut him off "Yeah you did, I heard you loud and clear" I said, he gulped and I put my hand to his throat "If you ever act like that towards him again..." I started to lift him up by the neck and he gasped for air
"...I will seriously hurt you" I threatened, he nodded as much as he could and I let go so that he fell to the floor, he caught his breath back and I crouched down "What are you?" he asked shuffling back "I'm someone you really shouldn't piss off. But I trust you not to tell anyone about this little meeting, or the one with Derek. Can I trust you?" I asked in a baby voice, he nodded while glaring at me "Good boy" I said ruffling his hair, I stood up straight and left the locker room feeling better than' ever.
