*I was thinking about this chapter, for a long time. I actually thought about this more than the last chapter, so that's my reason for writers block. My boyfriend is happy that I'm once again, happy and not groaning like a mummy/zombie/crypt keeper with a laptop on my chest and bags of potato chips everywhere. =) Enjoy! And review please. =D

*Disclaimer: I do NOT own Teen Wolf, no matter how much I wished I did. I do not own the characters blah blah blah, legal issues. I do own my OC's.

Chapter 10:

Honest Lies, and Surprises.

*=D POV*

The woods were alive with the sounds of birds and other animals. The sky was clear, except for a few clouds. Derek kneeled near a creek and took a deep breath. "They came through here." Glancing back, he saw Adaline standing on a tree branch investigating the area. The wind started to blow and it blew the hair away from her face, the hem of her dress lifted a little showing a little bit of her legs. "I think I see them Derek." She sounded excited for once as she glanced down at him, watching his eyes dart back to the creek beside him. "You're an easy target Adaline. You're always supposed to stay low." Adaline glanced down and sighed. "I know, but I like trees. So I'm going to climb them." She went to jump down and in a split second, Derek had his hands on her waist, her feet inches from the ground. "I'm a big wolf. I can jump down all by myself." He moved her from where she could've landed and placed her on the dead leaves. "There's glass there." She saw it shine in the sunlight and he glanced at her. "Look before you leap." Instead of showing how embarrassed she was, Adaline held her head high and began to walk towards the herd of deer. "Have a little faith and take a few risks. Leap with your blinders on."

Derek smiled at the memory as Adaline trained in the woods with her brothers. She moved with grace and not once did she stumble. He could see her strength. He could, smell her determination. But there was something about his uncle that caused her to forget everything she's learned and become helpless prey. "Addie, you need to stop with the jumping. You're not a frog." She laughed as she pounced on Anthony and smiled sweetly. "You're more like a cat frog than a werewolf. ACT like it for once. Just ONCE." She helped him to his feet and turned to Derek. "Wanna have a go?" Adaline tilted her head to the side as Derek stepped forward. "Alright, but don't run away crying when I kick your ass."

Lana scoffed and shifted in the leaves. "You might want to rethink that Hale." She looked more confident than her older sister. "Lana boo, don't scare him." Derek eyed her legs as she stepped forward. "Let's go Derek." Without much warning, Adaline watched as he came after her. With a devilish smile on her face, she fell to the ground and caught his foot. Derek landed on the ground with a thud and Adaline grabbed his arm and twisted it back with no hesitation. He growled and rolled over, taking her with him. She didn't stay down long as she moved from his grip and into a tree. "You really are a cat." He grinned and his eyes flashed. "Here kitty, kitty." He jumped after her and she jumped down, her hands sitting on his shoulders as she flipped over him, landing gracefully on her feet with a giggle. "Missed me Derek." Derek gave and even deeper growl than before and went after her, this time, managing to pin her down to the ground. Her black eyes looked up at him with a smile and she leaned up a little. He could feel her warm breath in his face as she spoke. "You win." She laid back down and he slowly removed himself from her body.

"I need to teach you how to get out of your head." Adaline looked up at him confused. "What do you mean?" Elliot sighed and thumped his sister's forehead. "He's going to teach you to ignore the fear when you're in danger. You let it take over. We all know how strong you are." Adaline blushed and waved his hand away from her face. "I have my reasons." She sighed and glanced at her sister to save her. "We all have fear. It manifests itself in different forms. Addie is still the strongest wolf we know. Point blank." She scrambled to her sister and Anthony laughed. "If you haven't noticed, I'm the alpha in this pack." That made them all laugh as they continued training.

*Adaline's POV*

I hated training with my mother. She pushed me past my limits. She made me beg for mercy. She, taught me how to be stronger, faster, and better than the others. I loved her for it. My father on the other hand, didn't want to hurt his special little girl. I wish I had spent more time with him. I wish, I still had them both. I glanced at Derek as I thought about my parents and watched as he walked from the living room of his home to the burnt part of the kitchen, stirring dust and ash in his path.

"Mom, how did you know dad was for you?" It was one of few moments that mom would grin like a teenager. "Well, he killed a deer and presented it to my parents." I gave her my confused look and she laughed that mom laugh of hers. "I just knew. I could feel it in my belly button." She looked at me and brushed the bangs from my face. "When you find someone Adaline, you'll feel it. Don't worry."

The sky overhead was something I could not get enough of. You know that moment, when the sun is just about to set and there are a blur of blues, pinks and purples along with the fluffy white clouds? I found myself never wanting that time to go on. Wishing it would freeze and stay that beautiful forever. I was training alone after training with the others. Something Derek didn't know about. I pulled my hair down from the high pony tail and felt as it hit the small of my back. I pulled off my gloves and gathered my things. "Oh mother, you'd be so proud."

I tore down my targets and shoved them in my bag as I walked quietly through the woods. Be careful. I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stood up and I glanced around me. I strained my ears to hear any noises, but I heard nothing. I pulled my bag higher on my shoulder and gripped it tight as I came to a familiar path.

"YOU NEED TO PUSH YOURSELF HARDER ADALINE!" My mother was yelling at me in the darkness. I was blindfolded and left to fend for myself. "Mom, I can't do this." I wanted to sob, but showing her weakness always made me feel bad about myself. "You can do this, I know you can. Just do what I told you. Listen to your instincts." I clutched the knife in my hand tighter and growled. "They're telling me to transform." I could hear as my mom growled back. "Then transform!" I did as I was told and my senses got a million times better. "Do what they don't expect Adaline. This is why I'm teaching you this. Just as my father taught me. It's key to your survival. You hear me?" I nodded and felt as she sighed. "We're done for today. I've pushed you too hard." She removed my blindfold and I looked down at my hands, they were bleeding, but I felt no pain. "I'm fine mom. Let's do this again. I can handle it." She smiled at me and shook her head. "Not tonight Adaline. Your father has something he needs to talk to you kids about." I nodded in defeat and helped her gather our things. Mom knew best right?

"That boy is a monster.. That boy is a monster.." I started singing to myself to ease my nerves, but it did little to help. I felt like I was being watched. It was unsettling. Just as I got close to the Hale manor, I heard a whizzing sound. An arrow flew past me and landed on a tree beside me. I ran for it, and found Scott and Derek on the ground in front of the house. "DEREK!" I ran to him and saw that he was bleeding . "Adaline, get out of here. Kate.." He trailed off and I heard as someone came closer. I caught an arrow before it could hit me in the leg and was face to face with Allison and Kate.

I crouched low and growled. "We have done nothing wrong. I haven't crossed our treaty." I was going to protect Derek with my life. Something in me wouldn't let me leave him. "I told you to go." Kate laughed and looked at us. "Alright Allison. Kill him." Allison glanced back at Kate and I saw it. "You said we were just going to catch them." There was a moment of silence, and I could hear as my bothers closed in. "And we did that. Now we have to kill them. Like this." She shot Derek and I froze.

It felt like time held still. My heart stopped beating the moment I heard the impact. Kate looked at me with that same, sadistic smile and I couldn't move. "I'll save you for someone special. Allison, keep your arrow on her." Allison did as she was told and turned back to Derek with tears in my eyes. He wasn't moving. His breathing was shallow, and I knew he would be ok, but the thought of losing him. God, it scared me. I leaned in over his body and felt as he took my hair between his fingers. "Sssshhh." I nodded and pretended to grieve. At least, I tried to. I cried anyway.

"Put the gun down Kate." I turned and saw Chris standing there, his own gun pointed at his sister. "Scott hasn't spilt human blood. No one here has." He glanced at me and I growled. For what reason, I don't know. He was protecting me, in a way but he was a hunter. There was no way I was going to trust him. "You set the fire here didn't you Kate? There were innocent children here." Kate's face, showed no remorse. "Like anyone would care about those monsters." She sighed and tilted her head to the side. "It's just like Aliana and Cedric's deaths. God, I enjoyed killing him. Dad said Aliana put up a fight though." She glanced at me and I started fuming. "They were innocent people. You're going on a witch hunt Kate." When she didn't put the gun down, he fired at her. "Next time, I won't miss." Kate gave him a surprised look and put the gun down.

Something zipped past us, knocking Scott and Chris out. Allison stood there, dumbfounded as something pulled Kate into the house. Allison ran in after her and I glanced at Scott. He would do anything to protect this girl. The least I could do was help. After all, she didn't shoot Derek, Kate did. I ran in after the both of them and saw as Peter stood there, staring at us. "Oh, it's you." I put my pack down and positioned myself in front of Alison. "Let Allison go. She doesn't want any part of this." I felt as Allison grabbed the back of my shirt and I pushed her back with a slight growl. "I'm doing this because Scott, loves you. And you haven't wronged me." I pulled myself away from her touch. "But don't.. touch me. I'm not as controlled as the others." She nodded in understanding and I looked at Peter carefully.

Without giving them time to fully understand what was going on, I grabbed my bow and quiver from my pack and aimed it at Peter, who was now holding Kate by her throat. "What do we have here? A werewolf trained like a hunter. You're full of surprises Violet eye." I growled and aimed my arrow at the spot where his heart rested. "My great grandfather was a hunter, who was bitten. It was key to our survival." I turned my aim to Kate's leg and let it go. "Aaagh." I smelled the blood and growled. "That was for my mother." I pulled another back and let it go, hitting her in the other leg. "That was for my father." I heard Allison gasp behind me. I drew another and aimed for her arm. Upon letting it go, I heard as it hit her flesh and passed right through. "That's for torturing me in that stupid warehouse." I drew one last arrow and shot her arm. "That's for killing everything important to the most important person in my life right now."

Kate was screaming in pain and I was satisfied. "Let her go Peter. You don't need to kill her." I was going to spare her life, but he didn't plan on agreeing. "Apologize Kate. For killing everyone in this house. For killing those innocent kids. For manipulating Derek into giving you what you wanted. Say sorry and fucking mean it." I took a step forward, to help Kate, against my better judgement and watched as he raised her in the air. When she didn't reply, he broke one of her legs with a growl. "DO IT!" Allison let out a small scream and I growled. "Let her go. You're scaring the girl!" He looked at me and his face was on the verge of transforming. "Do it, or I kill them all. Just like you did to my family." Kate let a tear fall and spoke softly. "Don't hurt Allison."

Peter sighed and looked at me. "You want to save her? After what she's done? After what you've done to her?" I clutched my bow and nodded. "I caused her the same pain I felt when my parents died. This girl," I pointed to Allison and never let Peter leave my line of vision. "Means the world to Scott. I can't harm her that way. Not the way Kate has done to so many families." Yes, I had threatened her life once, but upon hearing the stories about her, I could never. Not unless she came after us.

He looked at Allison and bared his canines. "I guess I'll have to kill her too huh?" He ran a clawed finger across Kate's stomach and I could hear the tear of flesh. The smell of blood filled my nose before I saw it soak her clothes. "Say sorry Kate. If you want the girl to live." Kate was in silent pain. I could see it on her face. "I'm sorry." He sighed and shook his head. "Not good enough." He ran his clawed hand against her throat and I watched as she gasped and blood poured from the gaping hole. Peter dropped her lifeless body to the ground and I saw that her head was barely kept together with a strip of flesh. He came after me but I heard as Scott jumped in. "Get her out of here!" I grabbed Allison and pulled her outside, and back to her father. Derek was no longer on the ground and I heard as he fought with Peter.

My siblings were all outside waiting on me. Chris looked at us all and I growled. "Is this your pack?" Anthony spoke up and nodded. "We protect our siblings. We're Aliana and Cedric's offspring." Chris eyed every single one of us and Elliot pulled me back. "She's the only one among us with the blessing." We confirmed it by transforming and Allison grabbed his sleeves. "She protected me dad. Don't, kill her family." Before he could answer, peter flew out and soon, a stranger and Stiles pulled up.

Everything else was a blur. Burning flesh filled the air and I couldn't tolerate it. Scott tried to stop Derek from killing Peter, but it was too late. So we all stood there, looking at the Argents. Jackson, (I was filled in) stood with them. "Don't cross us and we won't come after you." Chris' words meant nothing to me. Not after what his sister did. He turned to me and softened his gaze a bit. "Thank you, for protecting her. You too Scott. But you can't be together." We all felt the heart break.

*Derek's POV*

When they left, I looked at Adaline. "Why didn't you tell me?" She looked down and shook her head. "It wasn't important." I growled at her and Elliot growled back. "It was none of your business Derek. She was taught this in private, so make sure she would survive!" Adaline put her hand on his chest and pushed him back. "This isn't your fight Elliot." She turned to me, her eyes that pale purple, almost white color once again. Her voice had matured a little as she spoke. "What I am Derek is something no one understands. I truly am an abomination. THiS." She pointed to her eyes and growled. "This isn't normal. Not even for a Violet Eye. I'm defective. I'm destructive. I will kill everything and anyone in my path if I let this control me." She slammed her fist against a tree and it cracked, almost breaking in half. "These eyes, prove that I'm insane. I'm not meant for anyone. I'm meant to be put down."

I refrained from touching her as she walked past me. "I have no grip on my life." She walked back over to her siblings and I growled. "I don't either. But I need you." She glanced at me and her eyes went back to normal. "I'm the true Alpha now. I need a pack. I need someone to help me train them." Her once shining eyes, dimmed and she nodded. "Then so be it." She walked off with her siblings and I was left there alone with Scott and Stiles. "She doesn't want that." I looked at the weird one and he scratched his nose. "What?" Stiles sighed and pointed to Adaline. "Dude. She's in love with you. I can see it. She acts the same way around you, the way I do with Lydia. She wanted you to need her in a different way." I stood there staring at him in silence. What passes between Adaline and I, is nothing. Nothing we could act on.

**So how was it? That's the end of this season.. I may or may not continue on with it. If I do season 2, it will probably be a different title. Although, I LOVE this title.
