"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't shoot you."
I watched as Emily stood there, staring at the crossbow. She extinguished the flame in her hands, lowering her arm slowly.
"Um, I'm not evil and you'd be murdering me in front of my students?" Emily tried, raising an eyebrow.
With her eyes narrowed, Zoey cocked her crossbow, her finger twitching slightly on the trigger. I moved, slowly, towards the Pack, trying to get a better look at the situation. I couldn't understand why she was doing this - it wasn't like we were hurting anyone, we're the good guys! When I was close enough to the Pack, Derek grabbed my hand, dragging me closer to him. His jaw was set, eyes sharp, as he looked over what was happening, muscles drawn tight just in case.
"This. Isn't. Funny." Zoey spat. "We aren't some joke. Now, tell me why - and make it fucking good - should I not take you out?"
Emily didn't seem to know what to say for a moment, she just looked...sad, I suppose was the right word. She didn't say anything, so Zoey went to pull the trigger.
That was when Derek intervened. He let go of me, moving towards the Hunter with the crossbow, growling slightly. Suddenly, the crossbow was pointing at him. My throat went dry, tightening as I saw the arrow's head aiming straight for Derek's heart. My heart rate sped up as I felt the fire starting to build. I felt my very thin control on it start to weaken and crumble. How could I keep in control when someone I loved was being threatened?
"Who are you?" Zoey demanded.
"Forget them - they're just kids." Emily rushed. "This is between you and me."
"You're all supernaturals, aren't you?!"
But no one said anything.
"AREN'T YOU?!" she screamed.
Lydia and Danny immediately raised their hands and muttered 'human', whilst Allison calmly walked forward until she was standing to Derek's left.
"I'm a Hunter and you're not going to hurt these people." Allison told her, matter-of-factly.
"Oh, just run home to mommy, kid. Don't you know you're supposed to be a leader, not a fighter? This isn't for you and these 'people' aren't for you either." Zoey snarled.
I didn't need to see Allison's face to know her expression had darkened - I could tell in the way Scott's whole demeanour shifted.
"My name is Allison Argent and these people are under our protection. I'm a fighter when someone threatens my friends." Allison declared, her voice low and threatening as she grabbed her throwing knives. "Who the hell are you?"
Zoey was, practically, slacked jawed. Her eyes were wide as her arm fell, the crossbow pointing to the ground.
"An Argent." she muttered before speaking normally. "I'm Zoey Parker.
This time, it was Allison who was surprised. She was staring at the woman in front of us, as if she couldn't believe Zoey was who she said she was.
"Why are you?" Allison asked, the threatening tone gone from her voice.
I watched as Zoey glanced at Emily, bother of them fidgeting uncomfortably as colour flooded their cheeks - well, that was interesting. Zoey's free hand went to her hair, running through it as she scratched the back of her head.
"Uh, it was personal..." Zoey squeaked, slightly, coughing to set her voice right. "But I found out Beacon Hills had a Pack and, well, who could resist?"
"This Pack is on our side. Derek Hale is the Alpha." Allison commented, gesturing to Derek. "You've heard of the Hales, right?"
"Yeah, I heard they died in a fire..."
"Laura, Derek and Peter Hale all survived. Laura Hale was murdered ten years after the fire - Derek is now the Alpha."
"No one ever tells me this shit. You should have just said you were a Hale."
As Zoey grumbled, she unloaded her crossbow, placing the arrow back in her quiver and placing the bow over her. It...wasn't expected.
"Are you really Zoey Parker?" Allison asked, her tone almost hopeful.
"In the flesh." the ravenette confirmed, bowing slightly with a small grin.
"Did she just...bow?" Isaac whispered.
"Damn right I did, Goldilocks."
We ended up going back to Allison's house to see Chris, no one really trusting Zoey enough to take her back to the Hale house. Chris actually seemed to know a lot about the Parker family, expressing his praise - however small - before filling her in on, well, us. Whilst Chris explained, he kept Zoey away from us, talking to her in the kitchen whilst the rest of us sat out in the garden.
"Well... That was interesting." I mused, leaning back against Derek's chest.
"That's definitely one way to put it." Emily muttered.
I looked around the circle we were sitting in, everyone that could tuning into hear the conversation going on inside, whilst the humans - and whatever I was - sat their quietly. I only ever seemed to be 'quiet' when I was with Derek - he kept explaining that it was something to do with his wolf and the fact he and I were Mates and shit. I didn't really understand it, but I just nodded along for the sake of it.
Being quiet was fine. It was the not knowing that had me fidgety. My anxiety didn't seem to be a good mix with my new powers, making them peak slightly whenever I got that way. Panic attacks were not fun with the fire, sure I had only had one but I never knew when I was going to have another until it landed on me. I could feel it. Feel the heat bubbling. Feel my skin crawling and crackling. It didn't hurt or burn like it used to, it was just an uncomfortable sort of feeling that spread through my body. It only burned if it was about to explode out of me. Thankfully, those feelings would leave once I could control it fully, once I had enough practice. I could only hope that day would come sooner rather than later.
"Do you think she'll side with us?" Isaac wondered, glancing up from his seat on Danny's lap.
"Ask me yourself, Rapunzel."
