A/N: So I guess I'm getting back on track of weekly updates. So that's good forgot to put song info in last author's note so last chapter's song was "Promises" by Nero. This chapter's song is "Criminal" by Britney Spears and also I would count "Criminal" by Alexz Johnson since I enjoy both of them. Anyways, hope you enjoy the new chapter!

CHAPTER ELEVEN: CRIMINAL

Isaac stumbled away from the man holding the knife that had been plunged into his side which had caused the blood to run down his side into the chamber with Lydia and Megan. He could feel himself breaking and the man (Zach) was following him so he knew he had to run and get help for himself and Lydia or they would both perish there.

It took him a few moments, but he managed to start to outrun Zach and flee into the woods and take cover. Zach had lost one of their hostages and knew Megan would be upset but had probably already killed the strawberry blonde girl so he figured she'd be in a good-enough mood to not kill him as she still needed him for the time being at least.

Isaac used all his remaining strength to run out of the woods onto a road where he saw a partway dilapidated home with a newly put down mailbox with 'HALE' on the side. He had made it to safety and Lydia was going to be safe. But before he could make it the entrance of the home, he collapsed and began to bleed out. He needed medical attention soon or he was a goner as was Lydia.

Back at the camp where Megan had began to keep human captives, Lydia was also fighting for her life after being stabbed with a large dagger, the same one Gerard had used to slay Victoria. Lydia was barely clinging to life and Megan was enjoying the hunt. Lydia was now the Omega, and Megan the Alpha. The tables had truly been turned.

Melissa had found herself broken away from along with the kiss she had planted on Nathan's lips in an impromptu fashion. She was confused as to why he broke away from the invitation she thought he had been waiting for.

"What's wrong?" She asked the British man next to her.

"Melissa, I'm just here to help you. I can't do anything of that sort. Besides I'm gay." Nathan filled her in.

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry! I didn't realize. For a gay man, you have a very hetero personality." She ended her slight rant with a joke hoping to lighten the mood in the room.

"It's okay. I've been told so before." Nathan admitted to his new friend."We can still be friends, though, right?" Melissa questioned the younger man in front of her.

"Definitely friends." He answered her with a pleased tone. He had made another friend in Beacon Hills. He and Alyssa were doing okay if he said so himself.

Alyssa and Dr. Deaton had arrived back at the veterinarian office where the Doctor had began to throw himself into research on Gerard Argent and his family's lineage while Alyssa was piecing together what most likely happened next between Melissa and Nathan when he revealed his sexuality to the older woman. It would've certainly been amusing to view in her opinion.

"So, Uncle Alan, what are we going to do about the Argent problem?" Alyssa finally broke from her train of thought hoping to convince her uncle to do the same from his research.

"I don't know yet, Alyssa. We've got to know thy enemy before we can defeat them." He reminded his young niece hoping to continue to teach her the fundamentals of being a faerie counterpart. Their family lineage was certainly an interesting one as well.

Derek had heard someone in the front yard and warned Stiles and Jackson about it. He went to go check it out and found a bleeding teenager in a lacrosse uniform near the front door to the home. He rushed the young teen inside.

"Stiles! Jackson! I found the person! I'm gonna need some help here!" He shouted to the teens to make sure they were no longer afraid and could help him now.

"Oh my God, Jackson, it's that new kid Isaac Lahey. What is wrong with him?" Stiles questioned aloud.

"He's been stabbed. The cut is pretty deep, I don't know if he's going to make it." Derek answered.

"But we can't just let him die." Jackson shouted.

"Well, there is one solution to this problem." Stiles decided to point out to the two wolves. If Isaac was going to die, they would have to turn him to save his life.

"Fine, but I sure hope he's not going to be a mistake." Derek relented before flashing his eyes into the Alpha red and biting the young man beneath him as Isaac began to spring back into life upon receiving the bite.

Lydia and Megan's struggle was still on-going when Zach returned and shouted the bad news to his leader causing her to jump up from the chamber entrance and attack her protégé before realizing her error as Lydia was able to crawl up to the surface and began to run following clues Isaac had left behind for her.

Megan was much harder to break from than Zach however and Lydia was sure she was going to die in the woods of Beacon Hills when all of a sudden she saw a wolf and human hybrid-like creature attack Megan. She also saw Allison close by and ran to her friend gripping her side trying to stop the bleeding.

"Lydia!" Allison called out as her friend collapsed into the dirt as a pool of blood began to circle around her.

Scott quickly made work of Megan and knocked her into the ground as she retreated back to her camp which was still unknown to Scott and Allison as he rushed over to find out Lydia's status of injury.

"What are we going to do with her?" Scott asked his girlfriend.

"We have to get her to Derek! Now!" She responded as the two rushed towards the Hale home with Lydia in Scott's arms, barely clinging to consciousness.

When they opened the door, Isaac jumped up with a pair of purple eyes from being turned into a new Beta.

"Lydia! Is she okay?" He questioned causing the other three men in the room to turn and see the girl bleeding out in Scott's arms with his eyes glowing that Amber color probably from reacting to the new Beta's position.

"Derek, you have to save her too! She can't die!" Stiles called out upon seeing the large amount of blood Lydia's body was losing.

"Please, do it, Derek!" Jackson cried out soon after.

"Fine, Scott hand me the girl." Derek commanded before biting into her side as he had done with Isaac. Lydia however didn't immediately rush back to life nor show signs of breathing."She's probably dead." Derek informed them as they all looked on in despair. Had they really lost one of their own?
