It was a couple days after Faith went all crazy and ended up in the woods. Scott and her had been training with Derek non-stop. They told him what happened, and he agreed to help them out, to train them.
Which is what they were doing at that very moment. Today was Faith's turn to see Derek, Scott would see him tomorrow.
Faith dogged a punch that was coming from Derek. As she kicked her leg up towards his face, he grabbed her foot and put it to the ground and then threw her over his shoulder. Faith waited, thinking he was about to throw her to the ground. But he didn't, he slowly set her to her feet, keeping his hands on her waist. Faith looked into his grey eyes.
Derek stared back, his eyes traveling down her body before catching her eye again. Derek pushed her back until she was stuck between a wall and himself. Then, he leaned down, pressing his lips against hers. Faith was in a second of shock before kissing back.
Feeling her kiss back, Derek moved closer towards her and started leaving a trail of kisses down her neck and bare shoulder. Faith moaned and her back arched against the wall. She grabbed his chin slowly and brought him to look at her. She leaned in, kissing him again. As she reached for his shirt, they heard the front door creak open. Faith looked down before pushing past Derek and walking towards the front door. She saw that no one was there, but the door was wide open.
She closed it and turned around, screaming when she saw Derek on the ground, blood pouring out his stomach and mouth. She didn't have much time to think as a knife was thrown very close to her head. She looked up, seeing a women in her early 20's. She smirked at Faith and teased, " Did I hurt your boyfriend? "
Faith didn't answer, she looked down to the motionless body that belonged to Derek. She snapped her gaze back up to the women. Then, she reached for the doorknob, very slowly. " I wouldn't try it if I were you." The women said, eyeing Faith's hand.
" What do you want?" Faith whimpered.
" You and all the monsters like you dead. It's been my life long dream." The girl explained, reaching for another knife. " I'm Kate."
" Wait!" Faith shouted, seeing Kate was about to thrown another knife. Kate looked at her, gesturing for her to go on. " I want to know what I am, before I die."
" You're a-" Kate began to say, before getting knocked down by Derek, whom had gotten back up.
" Run!" Derek shouted. Faith turned around, struggling to open up the front door.
Once she was able to get the door open, she ran out the front door. She didn't stop running until she was on Jackson's doorstep. Isaac had gone over there, well because Faith forced him to, and she had to talk to her brother...pronto.
Faith knocked on the door loudly. She stopped knocking when the door burst open. Jackson looked really pissed, until he saw Faith. " Isaac!" Faith cried out as Jackson pulled her inside. In a flash, she saw Isaac tumbling down the stairs.
" Faith?" Isaac questioned, pulling her out of Jackson's embrace and into his own.
She realized she didn't think of an excuse when she ran over here. " Uh...I'm- I'm having nightmares. I can't get in control of my emotions. I just need my brother to hold me." Faith lied, looking down to finish of her act.
Isaac immediately pulled back to look at her, kissing the top of her forehead. " It's okay, I'm here Faith." Isaac whispered.
" I know. I think I just need an escape for the night. I just want to go out." Faith answered.
" Faith..." Isaac started. " I have work."
Faith nodded her head and looked towards Jackson. " Sure thing. Let me get my shoes" Jackson said.
Faith nodded her head in thanks and looked back towards Isaac, whom stated, " I'm sorry. Maybe another time when I'm not working. But Dad, he's on that business trip and expects the grave yard to be perfect for the rich people funerals."
Faith sighed, knowing he was right. " I love you, I." Faith said to her brother.
" I love you more." He answered, holding her closer.
" I love you most." Faith said back.
" I love you most. So come back to me by the end of the night or you'll be toast." Isaac argued, a chuckle escaping his lips as the two finished repeating their child hood saying.
Seconds later, Jackson was walking out the front door, Faith in his arms. " You need a ride to the cemetery? " Jackson questioned Isaac.
" No, I'm riding my bike." Isaac declined.
" Let me see this." Faith demanded, seeing Isaac in an old plaid shirt.
Isaac pulled it off and handed it to her. She pulled it on the shirt, which covered the black booty shorts she was currently in. She stepped forward, giving Isaac a hug. " Bye." Faith said, as she slipped into the passenger seat of the car. Jackson nodded his head at Isaac before getting in the driver's seat and driving off. Leaving a worried Isaac, whom wished he knew what was wrong with his sister.

Many minutes later, Jackson pulled into the movie store parking lot, which was empty.
" Come on, Faith! You love it." Jackson argued, trying to get her to watch the new basketball movie that came out.
" No." Faith said.
" Please!"
" No."
" I'm not watching The Notebook again!" Jackson shouted, turning to face Faith.
Faith stuck out her bottom lip, knowing he wouldn't be able to resist.
Jackson cursed under his breathe and got out the car, slamming it behind him. He was going in for The Notebook. And he hated how he gave into her so easily.
As he walked into the store, Faith felt bad and raced into the store after him. She quickly caught up to him as he called out, " Hello?"
Faith looked up when the lights started flickering before completely blowing out. " Jackson? I think we should just go." Faith whispered. She grabbed his arm and spun them around, where she was met with a black beast. She stepped back, realizing it was the beast that attacked her a year ago.
Jackson grabbed Faith and pushed her to the ground as the beast started for them. He ran all the way to the other side of the store, the beast hot on his heels. Faith slowly got up, feeling dizzy. She quickly got up when she heard shelves of movies falling. She fell back down, not able to walk. Jackson cried for help before everything went silent. Faith backed up into a corner. She saw the beast walking down the isles, almost as if it wanted to taunt her. She held her breathe and watched as the beast got closer to her. She almost screamed when it jumped over a shelf, right in front of her. She slowly stood up and slid under the beast. She quickly got off the floor and started running for the exit. But it was no use as the beast blocked her path. Faith closed her eyes, ready for her death.
Then she heard a shatter, glass breaking. And then a loud roar before more shattering. She slowly opened her eyes, sighing in relief when she saw it was Derek. His eyes scanning over her, checking to make sure she was okay. She looked over his shoulder, out the window. There, saw a terrified looking Lydia in her car, which was parked next to Jackson's. Faith dashed past Derek and out the door. She ran up to Lydia's window, knocking loudly. Lydia jumped and screamed until she saw Faith.
Lydia unlocked the car and quickly got out. " Did you see it? The beast?" Lydia questioned.
Faith hated to lie to Lydia, but to keep her friend safe she had to. And so she said, " Yeah. It was a mountain lion."
" No!" Lydia cried. " It wasn't a mountain lion!"
" Lydia..." Faith started to say, but then a thought hit her and she gasped. " Jackson!"
" Omigosh! Is he in there!?" Lydia exclaimed, panick in her voice.
" Stay in the car and call for help." Faith ordered. Lydia nodded and got in the car, as Faith rushed back inside the store.
Faith ran towards the last place she'd seen Jackson. She saw him piled under a shelf, a scratch covering the one he already got from Derek. It was a couple seconds later that Jackson was on his feet, an arm around Faith's shoulders as she helped him limp towards the exit.

Many minutes later, Faith was being asked questions by the police, whom had just arrived on scene. When she was finally free to leave, Jackson took her home.
When they got in his driveway, Faith got out the car and walked into her house without saying goodbye to Jackson, to drained of energy.
