Derek and I were dropped off a block from the train warehouse first by Deaton then Derek and I quickly jumped into the Camaro and drove back to my place, we went up to my room and I threw some clothes at Derek that he left there when he would spend the night and quickly went into the bathroom to change out of my dress, I turned on the water but moved to sit against the wall, Peter coming back was too much for me
I didn't acknowledge Derek as he walked into the bathroom but allowed him to pick me up off the floor and clean my arm and neck from the dried blood that had been left from earlier, he unzipped my dress and pulled it off me before handing me the pair of jeans and tank I picked out, I quickly threw both pieces of clothes on before moving to help clean off Derek's back, neither of us said a word to each other because neither knew what to say, after Derek dressed he threw my leather jacket at me and grabbed the keys to his car, I followed wordlessly
"I have no idea where they are" I spoke up as we got in the car "They're not answering my calls"
"We'll find them by scent" Derek nodded, I nodded my head and fiddled with my phone before I remembered Allison leaving a voicemail earlier, I quickly played it and put it on speaker knowing he would be able to hear it either way
"Hey Skye it's Allison, what I wanted to tell you before you ran off is that after the rave I looked through pictures on Matt's camera and he had some pretty disturbing pictures of you…well not all the pictures were of you a lot had Derek in them too, the pictures were…inappropriate I guess is the right word, there was one where you were in your bra…" Derek growled at those words and I stared at the phone "Anyway just thought I'd let you know, I'll talk to you later my dad's calling me bye"
"Oh my God!" I gasped because I knew I had a bad feeling about Matt this whole time
"That little…I'm going to tear his throat out!" Derek shouted hitting the steering wheel
"That's not what the oh my God was about…Derek I'm pretty sure this means he's the master …oh my GOD!"
"We need to find him"
"No we need to find Scott and Stiles they need to know this information"
"How?" I shook my head
"I…" before anything else came out my phone beeped signalling I had a text "It's from Scott…meet us at the Sheriff's station ASAP…we know who the master is" Derek zoomed out of the driveway and sped off towards the sheriff's station
As soon as the car was in park I ran towards the entrance with Derek closely following me, I reached for the door right as it opened revealing Scott, Stiles and Matt who was holding a gun at them
"Oh thank God" Scott said when he saw me
"What's going on?" I asked as I stepped into the room but let out a shriek as Derek, who was behind me, fell to the floor "Derek!" Matt cocked the gun and pointed it at me stopping me from getting to Derek's side
"Uh, uh, uh Skye…I wouldn't do that" I grabbed onto Scott's arm as Matt walked over to Derek and crouched down a bit
"This is the one controlling him, this kid?" Derek asked "Guess you were right Skye"
"Well Derek, not everyone's lucky enough to be a big bad werewolf, oh yeah that's right I've learned a few things lately…Werewolves, Hunters, Kanimas it's like a freaking Halloween party every full moon, except for you Stiles what do you turn into?"
"Abominable snowman but uh it's more of like a wintertime thing, you know seasonal" Stiles sarcastically said, Matt nodded his head and Jackson scratched Stiles
"Hey!" Scott yelled but Jackson stopped him
"You bitch" Stiles mumbled as he fell to the ground on top of Derek
"Get him off of me" Derek groaned
"Oh, I don't know, Derek" Matt said "I think you two make a pretty good pair better than you and Skye but it must kinda suck though, to have all that power taken away from you with just a little cut to the back of the neck I bet you're not used to feeling this helpless"
"Still got some teeth why don't you get down here a little closer, huh we'll see how helpless I am"
"Yeah, bitch" Stiles groaned as two headlights appeared in the window and a car stopped outside
"Is that her?" Matt asked and I shot Scott a confused look "Do what I tell you to and I won't hurt her I won't even let Jackson near her"
"Who" I asked panicking
"Scott, Skye, don't trust him!" Stiles said Matt sighed and grabbed Stiles and threw him on his back, stepping on his throat
"This work better for ya?"
"Okay, just stop!" Scott exclaimed "Stop!"
"Matt, stop!" I yelled
"Then do what I tell you to"
"Okay all right, stop!" Matt took his foot off Stiles then turned to Jackson
"You take 'em in there" he looked at Scott and me "You two with me" Matt led Scott and I out to the front desk just as our mom had just come in and I stared at her in shock what was she doing here
"Mom?" I said
"You scared me, where is every-" she saw Matt holding the gun at me and Scott
"Mom, just do what he says he promised he wouldn't hurt you" Scott tried to reassure our mom
"He's right" Matt said then he shot Scott in the stomach I tried to hold on to my brother as he fell to the floor and began to bleed heavily "But I didn't say I wouldn't hurt you"
"Scott, Stiles what happened?" we heard Sheriff Stilinski yell "SKYE!" I heard Derek yell my name as well
"But I didn't say I wouldn't hurt you" mom tried to reach us
"Wait, baby-"
"Back, back!" Matt yelled, pointing the gun at her
"Mom, mom, stop, mom!" I exclaimed and kept my hand on the gun shot wound as Scott and I sat on the ground
"I said get back!" Matt said
"Scott, Skye" she said, tears in her eyes
"Mom, do it please, mom" Scott asked
"Get up, McCall's" Matt ordered, Scott and I sighed
"Matt?" the Sheriff yelled "Matt, listen to me-"
"Shut…shut…shut up!" Matt yelled "Everybody shut the hell up now, get up or I shoot her next!" he pointed the gun at our mom so I helped my brother to his feet and Matt led the three of us to the back where the Sheriff was and Matt locked our mom in a cell
"Please, he needs to see a doctor" mom cried as Matt shut her in, Scott and I stood away from her, I was trying to keep my brother upright and to keep mom from seeing the wound healing itself
"You think so?" Matt asked making me glare, if he told her anything I am going to kill him myself
"Hey, hey, you listen to me!" the Sheriff started
"It's all right I'm okay" Scott said
"No, honey, you're not okay" mom cried
"It doesn't hurt, mom" Scott said, trying to keep her calm
"Cause that's the adrenaline, okay please, let me…let me just take a look at him, okay I mean, I can help stop the bleeding"
"They have no idea, do they?" Matt asked, turning to Scott and me
"Please let me just take a quick look, I…"
"Shut…shut…shut…shut up!" Matt yelled "Lady, if you keep talking I'm gonna put the next bullet through their heads!"
"Okay, okay" she cried
"Back to the front, McCall's" Matt said, pointing the gun at me and Scott again, once we were back in the front I looked at Scott and quickly pulled up his shirt and looked at the wound
"I need to get the bullet out for it to heal properly" I told him, Scott nodded as I extended my claws and cut his wound open further before pulling out the bullet
"Thanks" Scott nodded at me "The evidence is gone why don't you just go?" Scott asked Matt turning to him as I looked at Derek, I could see he was digging his claws into his leg trying to trigger the healing process
"You…you think the evidence mattered that much, huh no, I…I want the book"
"What…what book?" Scott asked
"The bestiary not just a few pages, I want the entire thing"
"We don't have it" I explained and we didn't except the copy that was on my laptop but wasn't about to tell Matt that "It's Gerard's, what do you want it for anyway?"
"I need answers"
"Answers to what?" Scott asked
"To this" Matt said, lifting his shirt up and revealed scales like Jackson's along his side "Give me your phone McCall" Mat asked me and we watched as Matt scrolled down and quickly sent a text message "We'll just make them come to us, then" I snatched the phone out of his hands
"You texted Allison are you insane, you do realize that the hunters will kill everyone in here without blinking an eye…especially me, Jackson and Derek" I yelled barely holding onto my humanity
"Why do you care so much about what the hunters will do to Derek, you're his play toy" Matt asked me as I growled at him
"You don't know anything about us or me, Allison told me about the photo's Matt"
"I knew she would but is it so bad Skyler that I think you're beautiful, I've had the biggest crush on you since middle school but have you once even noticed me, then this freak comes along and soils you" he pointed the gun at Derek, I growled out and bawled my hands to keep myself in check
"Hurt him and I'll kill you" I said through clenched teeth then looked at Scott as he was looking down at his wound
"You know, I…I feel sorry for you McCall cause right now you're thinking how am I gonna explain this when it heals and the sad part is you don't even realize how incredible it is that you actually are healing because you know what happens to everyone else when they get shot, they die"
"Is that what happened to you, you drowned didn't you?" Scott asked
"He shouldn't have let them drink"
"What…who…Matt, what do you mean?" I asked, trying to calm him down and myself
"Lahey, he shouldn't have let them drink"
"What, who was drinking?" Scott asked
"The swim team, you idiot I didn't know what was happening I didn't know they had just won state and Lahey, he's letting his favourites come over to have a couple drinks to celebrate who cares if they're seventeen, right?"
"Were you at Isaac's?" I asked
"He had this first edition Spiderman or was it Batman and we were gonna make a trade but then I'm over there and I hear music and everyone's having a good time and I see Sean he throws Jessica in the pool and then…and then Bennett goes in and.."
"Bennett what…the hunter?" Scott asked
"And then Camden Isaac's jarhead brother he grabs me, he thinks it's funny"
"They threw you in" I quietly said
"I…I yelled that I can't swim but nobody listens I go under and I swallow water and no one cares and I see these bodies underwater, I…I see Jessica's got her hands down Sean's board shorts, Tucker's grabbing Kara and I'm drowning, I'm dying and they're laughing, all of a sudden I was just…I'm lying by the pool and Lahey is right there, right above me and he says…he says, 'You tell no one this, this is your fault you don't know how to swim what little bastard doesn't know how to swim you say nothing you tell no one no one' and I didn't I didn't tell anyone and I would see them at school and they wouldn't even look at me I'd wake up in the middle of the night I'd gasp for breath and my parents, they thought I was an asthmatic, they…they…they even gave me an inhaler, they didn't know that every time I closed my eyes, I was drowning" Matt paused
"You know about that little white light that they talk about, you see when you die well, I didn't see anything just darkness, everything was dark but then…then came the Argent's funeral and everything changed I was taking some photos and then, purely by accident Lahey gets in one of the photos I look down at the screen on my camera and I just had this unbelievable rage that fills up inside of me and I just…I look at him and I…I wanna see him dead and the next day he actually was, you know Einstein was right Imagination is more important than knowledge it was like something out of Greek mythology like…like the furies coming down to punish Orestes, you have no idea what I'm talking about, do you?" Matt asked
"Was…was he the guy who stabbed out his eyes?" Scott hesitantly asked and I rolled my eyes
"God, that's Oedipus, you dumbass the furies are deities of vengeance their tears ran of blood and they had snakes for hair if there was a crime that had gone unpunished, the furies would do the punishing Jackson is my fury, when I saw him the next night it was like this bond had been cemented between the two of us I knew he had killed Lahey for me and I knew he would do it again so I went to Tucker's garage I even paid for an oil change and guess what he didn't even recognize me so when he wasn't looking, I took a shot of him from my camera and in a few hours, he was dead so I took more pictures all I had to do was take their picture and Jackson would take their life" suddenly all the lights in the station turned off and the alarm began to sound, the emergency lights turning on "What is this, what is this, what's happening, what's going on?" Matt yelled
"I don't know" Scott said then the gunfire came bullets shot through the window the three of us ducked down to the ground and Scott shielded me then lead me over to a desk to get under, we hid and the gunfire ended shortly we were about to get up when a smoke grenade was thrown in the room, releasing smoke into the air
Scott stood and grabbed me then we ran out of the room and Scott slammed right into Jackson, knocking him on the ground, the two of us then ran over to Stiles and Derek
"Take him, go!" Derek yelled getting up
"I'm not leaving you" I said grabbing his arm
"You have to!" Derek kissed me chastely "I'll be fine, save yourself" he added before taking off
"DEREK!" I screamed as he never listened to me, I knew those gunshots were the Argent's and yet he still ran right into they're trap
Scott and I grabbed Stiles and held him up as we ran from Jackson, Scott closed many doors behind us which Jackson broke as he followed once we made it into an interview room, we were safe, Scott and I sat Stiles down in the chair
"Don't move" Scott and I said at the same time and Stiles looked at us
"You know what we mean" Scott added as we ran out back into the hallway, each going a different way I ran through the station looking for Derek and was starting to fear the worst, I heard my mom scream so I ran towards the holding cells
I ran in just in time to see Derek growl in full wolf and started fighting Jackson, he grabbed the Kanima and threw him onto a metal table only to have Jackson shove him back onto the floor but Derek dove for him again and grabbed a chair to push Jackson back but Jackson grabbed the chair legs and pushed Derek onto the desk and he rolled over behind it, I sighed and ran up to help but Jackson kicked me to the ground and I slid hitting my head on the wall, I couldn't shift because of my mother watching, I turned and saw she was looking at us in shock and I realised that she must have seen Derek completely transformed
We quickly got up and I let the anger get the better of me and I felt myself shift as we ran at the Kanima, he grabbed hold of the cell bars and hissed at my mom but Jackson kicked his legs at the Derek when he tried to stop him and he fell against me making both of us go tumbling to the ground we sat there dazed for a minute until Scott threw the Kanima off the cell and onto the floor then Jackson took off and Derek was quick to get up and follow him
"Derek!" I yelled after him and started to follow I had to warn him about the Argent's but stopped in the doorway when mom called to see if Scott was okay his head was down and his back was to her, he slowly looked up at me we turned to our mom
"Scott, Skye?" mom gasped "No!" she cried looking at us, her hands covering her mouth as Scott stood to go to her but she backed away far into the shadows of the cell, Scott turned and looked to me as I felt tears in my eyes
"Stay with them" he took off, I heard a grunt from behind me and saw Stiles crawling towards the room
"Stiles!" I exclaimed and ran over to him, picked him up and leant him against the wall, I heard my mom crying in the cell "I'm gonna go get help" I told Stiles, he nodded and I ran from the room, going towards the front to find a phone but as I ran down the hallway a hand grabbed my arm I gasped but sighed when I saw Derek "You're okay!" I exclaimed and hugged him he hugged me back before quickly ducking behind a wall
I went to ask what it was but Derek shook his head at me and let out a silent "shh" then I saw Gerard walk past us and stopped I snuggled closer to him and wrapped my arms around his neck as Derek and I held our breaths knowing we wouldn't be able to fight off Gerard
"What are you doing here?" I heard Scott ask the older hunter "It wasn't supposed to happen like this" Derek and I locked eyes as Gerard answered
"Trust me I'm aware of that"
"I've done everything you've asked of me, I'm part of Derek's pack, I've given you all the information that you wanted, I told you Matt was controlling Jackson…"
"And leave him to us, help your friends, leave Matt and Jackson to me" Gerard replied "Deal with your mother, Go!" something metal clinked on the ground
"You dropped this"
"Go" I had never felt more betrayed in my life and this was my own twin brother, tears welled up in my eyes as I buried my face in Derek's neck, Scott ran past the two of us and Derek looked just as betrayed, Deaton told him he could trust Scott but he couldn't have been more wrong, I then remembered that they were here for him
"Go you have to get out of here" I whispered to him
"Hey, hey I'm okay" I sighed and hugged him close, I thought I had lost him again and I was so sick of thinking I had lost him, I'm going to protect him like he protects me even if that's against Allison or even Scott he means everything to me
A/N:
Arianna Le Fay - I chose empathy because it made the most sense, I wanted Skye to stay true to her compassionate nature and empathy suited that
Talia was a human mate and was turned by their father, Laura is not because she was born a werewolf she only inherited Talia's abilities
As for what happens when Derek loses his Alpha in Season 3 you will have to wait and see, I can't reveal it just yet and spoil the story
