I came to again and took a deep breath of fresh air. I opened my eyes when I realized we were in the woods. "She's awake!" A gruff voice barked. I looked up and saw that I was chained to a tree. A thick chain was wrapped around my waist and my hands we secured to the tree above my head. I tried to yank my wrists free but howled in pain as soon as my skin touched the metal that trapped my wrists to the tree. I looked up and saw that the metal was actually silver. I howled again when I tried to move my legs which I soon found out were also secured to the tree with silver. "That's right sweet heart make as much noise as you can." Gerard purred as he materialized from the shadows followed by Allison and a grim face Chris. "I won't lead him to you!" I growled as blood began to drip down my wrists.
"Oh but you already have. He has his whole pack looking for you. It's my mission to reunite this happy couple." Gerard said with a snake like smile. "I won't let you touch him." I spat as Gerard laughed. He got so close our noses were touching. "I have no problem slaughtering you too." He whispered sweetly. I felt a growl rumble in my chest. I was about to speak but was cut off by Chris. "Gerard our quarrel isn't with her! It isn't even really with Derek! Peter killed Kate because she broke the code! She killed innocents!" Chris roared pulling his father away from me. I flashed him a grateful smile just as Allison came to his side. "How can you say that?" Allison growled. "Say what?" He asked meeting his daughters gaze. "This is about Derek! It's because of him that mom's dead! It's all his fault!" She cried moving away from her father.
Chris looked at his father as understanding relaxed his features. "Derek didn't kill your mother…. Allison he was hurting Scott and Derek went to save him… she was bitten and didn't want to become a wolf.. so she…" Chris started to explain but was cut off by Gerard. "Don't listen to him Allison. You read your mother's note. You r father has betray us." Gerard said resting his hands protectively over her shoulders. I could taste the salt from her tears in the air as she looked from her father to her grandfather. "Shall we start this show my dear?" Gerard asked handing her a silver bow. She looked back up at her grandpa and then grabbed the bow.
"Allison! No! Don't do this!" Chris pleaded. "Restrain him!" Gerard barked as Allison took aim. Threehuge hunters came out of the darkness and grabbed hold of Chris as she let the arrow fly. It made its home in my left thigh. I howled in pain as she left another arrow fly and my howl turned into a scream as it pierced my right shoulder. Gerard stopped Allison just as she notched her third arrow. He walked over to me and smirked as he drew his sword and buried the tip into my left hip. I bit my lip until the coppery taste of my blood filled my mouth and I screamed and began to thrash against my silver bindings. I let out another scream as the silver began to burn my skin.
"Gerard this has to end now!" Chris yelled over my cries. "I'm going to deal with you after I gut this monstrosity." Gerard growled pointing his sword at his son. "You will not touch him!" A familiar voice cried. I looked up to see Victoria burst through the trees and take out the guards that were holding her husband back. All of the Argents froze and it was as if time was standing still. My heart just about burst from my chest as I saw Erica and Isaac come in behind Victoria. Scott, Stiles, and Boyd were right behind them. I smiled as I saw Peter. He caught my eye and gave a small bow as he smiled at me. Then Derek crossed the clearing to me.
He took in my beaten frame and instantly began to pull the arrows out of my body. "God Rebekah you're so stupid… Why would you do something so insane…" He stammered as his mouth smashed against my own in a frantic kiss. "I've missed you so much." He whispered as he cupped my face in his hands and rested his forehead on my own. "I'm so sorry Derek… I had to protect you." I said as my tears began to fall and mingle with his. "I love you so much." He whispered as he broke the chain around my waist. "I love you too." I murmured as he kissed me again. He started to reach for the restraints on my wrists and ankles, but he instantly recoiled from the silver. "Stiles I need some help over here… Come be useful for once!" Derek growled.
The boy looked up and awkwardly ran over to us. "Oh my god! Beks are you ok?" Stiles asked as he started to pull on the silver bindings. "Hurry up Stiles." Derek growled impatiently. "I'm sorry Mr. Alpha I'm human… I don't have werewolf strength!" Stiles retorted. "Here let me help." Peter barked as he grabbed on to Stiles and pulled him. Isaac and Scott came over and helped Peter. They freed my wrists and instantly threw my arms around Derek's shoulders. He quickly embraced me as the boys worked on the bindings on my ankles. "Ugh Stiles was right you do smell like a zombie!" Isaac groaned as Scott and Stiles began to laugh. As my ankles were free and I collapsed into Derek's arms.
The Argents were having a happy family reunion so they didn't notice Gerard. "This ends now!" Gerard growled charging towards Derek swinging his sword. I looked up just in time to see the moons light shine off of his silver blade. I did the only thing I could think to do. I shoved Derek to the ground and threw myself in front of Derek as the blade came down and went straight through me.
