Claire's P.O.V
"Ok that settles it you're insane" I said as Alex flitted nervously around me attempting to make me more comfortable while giving a crazy explination for why he stabbed me. "Even if I did believe that I was this super powerful witch, which I din't by the way, then why do I need your protection? If I am as powerful as you claim then I should be able to protect myself".
"Eventually yes you will be able to. In fact one day you will become the high priestess of our coven but as of right now your to untrained to unstable to defend your self and it will take years before you can and even then it will still be my job to help protect you" He said somberly.
"I don't want this" I said stubbornly "If I just ignore it it'll go away eventually right?" I said thinking that made sense it was like if you were an amazing runner but you stopped practicing it it would eventually go away.
"It doesn't work like that" Alex said "If you don't get your powers under control not only could you hurt someone on accident like you almost did with Scott earlier but you could hurt yourself. If you don't get your power under control soon it will drive you insane. That irratic confusion that you've been feeling the past couple days is only the start. If you don't let me train you it'll be a disastrous situation in which everyone looses"
"I con't go back to london" I said firmly "I won't go back". I couldn't stand the idea of facing everyone yet. I couldn't face all those people who had been my friends and who had been betraying me and lying to me my whole life.
"That's why the council has given me permission to train you here for a time, as long as it's relatively safe. However if you don't agree to train or if the situation becomes to risky they have authorized me to take you back to london by force if necessary" Alex said pacing and eyeing Scott and his friends who were huddeled in the kitchen talking.
"So I really have no choice in the matter. Either I go back to London where I get locked up for witch training or I get locked up here for witch training" I said swinging my legs over the side of the couch.
"Well if you want to put it like that then yes. But we all have our destinies and this one happens to be yours. And you can complain and bitch about it as much as you want but that doesn't mean it's going to change" Alex said with a steely tone in his voice.
"What exactly does "Witch Training" involve?" I asked grumpily.
"The council has been prepping you for this for quite some time with putting you on the special track you already know the languages that we often use for spell casting which will be a great help. I'll be teaching you spell and how to make potions as well as instructing you on the rules of magic" Alex said thoughtfully "Also what extra curricular did you do before because you need to have something to keep you in shape. I think it was ballet?"
I nodded. I had been forced to try just about every sport known to man kind, but I just wasn't very good at sports. However when I'd found ballet it had been the perfect fit and I'd been practicing every since.
Alex nodded "very good I'll find a local studio for you to start up training again as well as someone to help keep you focused. Now that that's settled I'm going to go check into a near by hotel until I can find an appartment or house close by. Also I think Scott has some explaining to do" Alex said before getting up and heading towards the door "Keep your phone on you in case I need to get a hold on you and the keys to your car are on the counter in the kitchen... And you should at least consider calling Rhonwen back, she's worried sick about you" He said before walking out the door.
I sighed getting up on shaky legs. One weird as situation down one to go.
?Stile's P.O.V
I watched Claire laying of the couch as Scott and Derek explained her situation. Despite having witnessed her scary display of power I still found it hard to believe that Claire was a powerful witch. I mean she looked so frail and delicate laying on the couch. She'd woken up shaking drench in sweat after Alexander had made some sort of concoction and given it to her. He was explaining her situation to her and from what it sounded like she wasn't happy with what he was telling her.
"Oh hey Stiles that dude referred to himself as The honourable Alexander Pirce is that a witch thing or was he just being pretentious?" Scott asked me forcing me to divert my attention from Claire to him.
"That means he's the Baron of Dunsany or his father is" I said only half paying attention to Scott. "Wait Alexander like that Alexander said that?" I said taking a closer look at the guy. Well Fuck I thought glaring at him it was obvious way he looked at her that he cared deeply about her. Maybe he just cares about her as a friend I tried to convince myself, but even as I thought the words I knew there was no way that was true, the guy was completely in love with her. How on earth am I going to compete with im now. I twas going to be hard enough when he was just a tall handsome muscular warlock who was her sworn protector, but now he was also a fucking baron. I was so screwed and I thought having a crush on Lydia Martin was hard. I watched as Alex walked out of the house and Claire went to stand up wobbling slightly. I rushed over putting my arm around her to help stabilize her.
She smiled looking up at me. "Thank you Stiles" She said before turning and calling to Scott. "You have some explaining to do" She said firmly.
"You really should sit back down for this" Isaac said to her.
"I'm tired of lying down and I'm tired of your stalling" She said giving Isaac a look that could have frozen molten lava. Isacc shrugged backing up as if remembering how she almost struck Scott with a bolt of lightening.
"The truth is" Scott said "Is that we are all werewolf, well besides for stiles that is"
She gave us a disbelieving look "Werewolves? What about Lydia and Alison?"
"Alison is a werewolf hunter and Lydia is just human although she's aware of our current position." Scott said before adding "And for someone who just found out their a witch you shouldn't sound so surprised".
"I'm sorry I didn't know that learning I was a witch opened up the supernatural pandoras box" She said sarcastically. "What about Ethan and Aiden that still does;t explain why you guys were acting so bizarre"
"Their part of another pack. A bad pack. " Scott said. "That was why I was trying to keep you away from them. They would hurt you if they thought it would help them get to me,"
"Great awesome just another thing I have to worry about" She said running her fingers though her hair.
"You don't have to worry about them. That's my job to keep you safe. It's the whole packs job" He added looking pointedly at Derek who nodded and then at Isaac who sighed but also nodded.
Claire just sighed "I really hate Beacon Hills"
