AN: I DO NOT OWN TEEN WOLF
I arrive at the school as quickly as possible. Scott and Isaac are talking with Papa Stilinski. 'I got to meet with the medical examiner to find out what happened with Jackson.' He says. Does that mean Jackson is dead? It's all kicking off man. 'We've got an APB out on Stiles, his jeep is still in the parking lot, so that means...' He continues. I feel myself wanting to hug him. He's like a father to us all, and Stiles is one of my best friends. Whoever took him will pay. 'Hell, i don't know what that means. Look, if... if he answers his phone, if he answers his email, if either one of you see him..' He stresses. I nod my head. 'Yeah, we'll call you.' Isaac says. 'Look, he's probably just freaked out about all the attention or something. We'll find him.' Scott says a tad forcefully. No one messes with our friend and gets away with it. John nods, and i give him a small smile. He needs as much reassurance as we can give him right now. 'I'll see you okay?' He says, then turns and heads outside.
The locker room clears up soon after Coach has a chat with Scott. 'Is that everyone?' Scotty asks. I walk over to Stiles locker, and pull off the door. 'I think so.' Isaac replies. 'You're going to find him by scent?' Isaac asks, as if he can't believe it. 'Yes asshole. We're going to find him by scent. I don't know if you've noticed, but we're werewolves.' I snap at him. Isaac recoils back, and Scott nudges my shoulder. 'Calm down R, we're going to find him.' Scott says softly. I bite my tongue, determined to keep it together. After this whole situation, i'm going to climb into bed and sleep for a month. Preferably with Derek. 'How come you get a shirt, and i get a shoe?' Isaac asks Scott. I roll my eyes, and go to snap at him, until i catch a whiff of Derek's scent. Snapping my head to the left, i see him stood there. Sighing in relief, i step towards him. He takes my hand in his, and gives me fingers a reassuring squeeze. 'We need to talk.' He states. I squeeze back. 'All of us.' Peter says, showing himself for the first time tonight. I clench my free fist, determined not to punch his smug face. 'Holy shiiii...' Scott says, shocked. That makes me grin a little.
'What the hell is this?' He asks. I bite my lip. 'You know, i thought the same thing when i saw you talking to Gerard at the sheriff's station.' Derek replies. My gaze snaps to Scott. My mouth falls open a little. Scotty, working with hunters? No way, he wouldn't. But then i think about at a little. He's so in love with Allison, it's sickening to see. Would he work with the enemy if it meant he got to be with Allison? 'Hey, wait a minute! He threatened my mom!' Scott defends himself. 'And i had to get close to him, what was i supposed to do?!' He exclaims. 'I'm gonna go with Scott. Have you seen his mom? She's beautiful.' Peter chips in. I, Scott and Derek snap at the same time. 'Shut up.' Finally Isaac speaks. 'Who is he?' I roll my eyes. This is what we get for making new wolves. 'That's Peter, Derek's uncle.' Scott explains. 'A little while back he tried to kill us all, and then we set him on fire and Derek slashed his throat' I add in. Derek rolls his eyes. 'Hi.' Peter says. I take a deep breath. It's not fun going down memory lane. 'That's good to know.' Isaac mutters, and visibly swallows.
'How is he alive?' Scott asks. Always demanding answers. 'Look, the short version is, he knows how to stop Jackson. And maybe how to save him.' Derek tells us. My shoulders slump a little. 'Well, that's very helpful, except Jackson's dead.' Isaac says. Figures. 'What?' Derek questions. 'Yeah, it just happened on the field.' Scott mutters. Derek turns to look at Peter. 'Okay, why is no one taking this as good news?' I ask. 'Jacksons dead, no more Kanima, all we got to do is find Stiles and possibly kill Gerard and all will be fine and dandy.' I say. 'Because if Jackson is dead, it didn't just happen. Gerard wanted it to happen.' Peter mutters. I frown. 'But why?' Derek asks. Good question, Derek-o. 'Well, that's exactly what we have to find out. And something tells me that the window of opportunity is closing, quickly.' Peter chips in again. He may be psychotic, but he sure can be helpful. Shame i hate his guts.
We head to Derek's old place, since Peter needs to find something. Isaac heads off to try and find Stiles. There's no need though, because once we're inside, the sheriff texts us saying Stiles is home safe. Just a tad beaten. Gerard is going to eat my fist as soon as i see him. 'Oh thank god, they found Stiles.' Scott says out loud. I let out a sigh of relief, and text Isaac telling him he can stop looking. 'Look, i told you, i looked everywhere.' Derek exclaimed. 'Yeah, well you didn't look here.' Peter says, while removing part of the stairs. 'What is that, a book?' Derek asks. Peter scoffs. 'No, it's a laptop. What century are you living in?' He asks sarcastically. I glare at him. Isaac joins us, and Peter continues. 'A few days after i got out of my coma, i transferred everything that we had. Fortunately the Argents aren't the only people who keep records.' Peter tells us, and gets up off the steps. Scott takes a call from his mom, and Derek, Isaac, Peter and I walk into what i'm assuming used to be the living room.
While Isaac and Scott head to the hospital, I stop with Derek and Peter. I don't trust the guy around Derek. He could easily pounce, kill Derek and become an alpha again. That would not be fun. Ten minutes or so pass in pretty much silence, only the sound of the keys being tapped filling up the air. Scott calls my cell not long after. I pass it to Derek, who talks to Scott for a few minutes, before passing on the message. 'They say he's in some sort of transparent casing made from the venom coming from his claws.' He informs us as Scott talks on the other end of the line. 'Well that sounds sufficiently terrifying.' Peter mutters. I'm with Uncle P on this one. 'They also say he's starting to move.' Derek continues. I rub my eyes, trying to stay awake. This whole thing is so tiring. 'Okay i think i found something.' Peter tells us. Derek and I lean in to the computer, and scan the page he's on. 'It looks like what you're seeing from Jackson is the kanima's beta shape.' Peter says, as he moves through the pages.
'Meaning what? That he can turn into something bigger?' Derek asks, eyes moving frantically. Peter scrolls down, and an image appears. 'Much bigger.' I grab a hold of the table, my hands clasped so tight my knuckles turn white. 'He's turning into that? That has wings.' Now is not the time to panic Rogue. Not now, not now. Later ,you can panic later. 'I can see that.' Peter responds. After telling Scott to bring Jackson to us, he hangs up the phone. 'Oh, look, someone actually made an animation of it.' He says a tad interested. 'Maybe it's less frightening if we/...' Clicking on the link, it brings up an ugly looking creature, that screeches. 'Nope, not at all.' He says, closing the laptops lid. 'Oh god.' I mutter. We're so fucking screwed right now. Peter's theory better work otherwise we're all dead. Like, full on dead and probably going to hell. So, so, so screwed. 'We should probably meet them halfway.' He suggests. Derek agrees, and we set off to meet them at the warehouse.
When we get there, Derek shows off while i stroll slowly behind him. Scott and Isaac are with Chris. 'I'm here for Jackson, not you.' Chris warns him. I roll my eyes. 'Somehow i don't find that very comforting.' Derek replies. I roll my eyes again. Fucking werewolf shit. Next he addresses Scott and Isaac. 'Get him inside.' Once we're all inside, Isaac finally speaks. 'Where are they?' He asks. Derek looks confused. 'Who?' He asks. I sigh. 'Peter and Lydia?' Scott says, like it's the most obvious thing in the world. Derek doesn't respond, instead he leans over and begins to open the body bag to get a look at Jackson. 'Whoa, hold on a second!' Scott says. 'You said you know how to save him!' He says angrily. 'Look, we're passed that. Think about it Scott! Gerard controls him now, and he's turned Jackson into his own personal guard dog. And he set all of this in motion so that Jackson could get even bigger, and more powerful!' He shouts. Chris shakes his head. 'No, he wouldn't do that. If Jackson's a dog, he's turning rabid, and my father wouldn't let a rabid dog live.' He says firmly. I ring my hands, trying to think why the hell Gerard is doing this.
'Of course not! Anything that dangerous, that out of control, is better off dead.' Gerard appears. 'Sounds like you then.' I mutter under my breath. Chris must have heard me, because his gaze sharpens on me, and he pretty much glares. Derek goes to stab Jackson, but the guy wakes up, and gets Derek before he can get Jackson. 'No!' I shout out, taking a step forward. Jackson throws Derek across the floor, and we all turn to watch him. 'Well done to the last Scott. Like the concerned friend you are, you brought Jackson to Derek to save him. You just didn't realise that you we're bringing Derek to me.' An arrow whizzes through the air, hitting Isaac, sending him spiralling to the floor. Allison. 'Allison?' Scott asks, in disbelief. His ex girlfriend is shooting arrows at his pack. Tut tut. I yank Isaac up, and with the help of Scott we get him out of firing range. Mr Argent shoots at Jackson, who hides behind the SUV. After emptying a clip, he pushes another one in, and takes aim. Jackson jumps on top of the car, and with his super strong tail, pulls the gun out of a very human Chris's grip, sending it flying off to god knows where.
The Kanima attacks, sending Argent flying, just like he did with Derek. Derek jumps over some crates, and lands in a crouch. After pulling out the arrow in Isaac's chest, all three of us transform, and the fight begins. And we pretty much get our asses handed to us. Again. it's clear that Jackson is indeed stronger, and there's not much chance of us beating him. We continue, until Derek gets him stomach slashed, venom seeping into his abdomen, paralysis setting in. Isaac climbs back onto his feet, but Allison stops him making any attempt at attacking, slashing him with daggers until he falls back to the ground. She advances towards Derek, and i go to take a hit at her, but Gerard speaks up. 'Not yet sweetheart.' He says, walking from out of the dark. The Kanima grabs her by the throat, lifting her up into the air. 'What're you doing?' she asks, confused. Scott is the one that speaks up. 'He's doing what he came here to do.' He states.
He knows something we don't. 'Then you know.' Gerard says, not even making it a question. 'What is he talking about?' Allison hisses. 'It was that night at the hospital, wasn't it?' Gerard asks, clearly ignoring his granddaughter. What on earth have i missed out on? 'He's dying.' Isaac informs us from his place on the floor. 'I am. I have been for a while now. Unfortunately science doesn't have a cure for cancer yet. But, the supernatural does.' He says in his creepy gravelly voice. So, he wants the bite. That's why he took control of Jackson, and had him kill himself. He knew that once Jackson began to transform, we'd take him to Derek. All he had to do was follow us here, and have Jackson paralyze Derek, and he could get what he wanted.
'You monster!' Chris grinds out. Gerard smirks. 'Not yet.' He says, clearly happy. 'What are you doing?' Allison cries. Serves her right for being a bitch. Everyone ignores her. 'You'll kill her too?' Chris's voice breaks. Not only has he lost his wife and his sister, he may be about to lose his only daughter. 'When it comes to survival? I'll kill my own son.' Gerard responds. He's even more crazy than Peter! 'Scott?' He asks expectantly. I growl low in my throat. So does Scott. He clearly doesn't want to do this, but if he wants to be with Allison, then he has to. i just can't believe he's going to pick a girl he's know for a short amount of time over his best friend. If he does this, i'll never speak to him again. Stepping towards Derek, I let out another growl. 'Scott.' I warn. He flashes me a look, one i've come to trust. Grabbing Derek by the neck, he pulls him up. Gerard rolls up his shirt sleeve, revealing his flesh, ready to be bitten. 'Derek..' I whimper. 'Scott, don't! You know he's just going to kill him right?' I ask bitterly. Derek growls in agreement. 'He'll be an alpha!' He adds, to try and convince him.
'That's true, but he knows that, don't you Scott? He knows that the ultimate prize is Allison. Do this small task for me, and they can be together. You are the only piece that doesn't fit, Derek.' Gerard practically growls out. 'And in case you haven't learnt yet, there is no competing with young love.' He finishes off his stupid speech, and Derek speaks. 'Scott, don't.' He pleads. 'Scott!' I shout as he positions Derek, and waits for Gerard to walk forward. 'I'm sorry, but i have to.' Scott says. He has a glint in his eye, something i've only ever seen in Stiles, and immediately, i understand what's going on. He has a plan. Must be a pretty good one if he's willing to allow Derek to bite Gerard. Once his teeth sink in, i flinch, and look away. Gerard groans in pain, but i feel no pity for him. Backing away a little, we all look on as he stands there proud of the bite in his arm. Chris and i flinch when we see it. Black blood begins to seep out of the wound. 'What is this? What did you do?' He growls. Scott turns to Derek. 'Everyone always said that Gerard had a plan. I had a plan too.' Scott informs us.
I grin a little. Scotty finally grew a brain. Pulling out his pills, Gerard crushes them in his hand, and black ash falls out of the broken tubes. 'Mountain ash!' He screams out in distaste. Blood begins to fall out of his eyes. 'Oh man.' I mutter, cringing. He begins to wheeze, and suddenly spews up a whole boat full of the goo, dropping to his knees, and then to the floor. 'Why didn't you tell me?' Derek asks. I bite my lip. 'Because you may be an alpha, but you're not mine.' Scott tells him. I hang my head. I wish the two of them would just get on. Gerard tries to slide away, spitting out more of the black shit. 'KILL THEM! KILL THEM ALL!' He screams. With Gerard now down, Jackson has only one last order. To kill everyone. Letting go of Allison was a big mistake. She elbows him in the face, making him stumble back. Stiles and Lydia come flying through the side of the warehouse, and crash into Jackson. 'Did i get him?' He asks after taking a few deep breaths. I huff out a laugh, and nod slightly. Jackson however, isn't dead.
Jumping onto the bonnet of the jeep, he hisses, making Lydia scream, and the both of them scramble to get out of the car. 'Jackson!?' Lydia asks, sounding a little hysterical. She says his name once more, and rises what looks to be a key. Jackson looks at it, as if it's bringing back memories, and slowly but surely he turns back to human. He takes the key, then looks to Lydia, who has tears streaming down her face. Taking a few steps back, he nods to Derek, who alongside Peter moves forward and stabs him through the stomach. Tears are streaming down my own face, and i can see Stiles is in the same boat as me. 'Do you still...?' Jackson asks. Lydia nods vigorously. 'I do, i do still love you.' She tells him, cradling the one boy she's only ever loved in her arms as he dies.
The rest of the kanima's scales disappear, and i bow my head. Jackson Whittmore is dead, again. 'Where's Gerard?' Allison asks. I look around not finding him anywhere. 'He won't be far.' Chris tells her. Lydia turns to face us, but is stopped in her tracks when claws begin to scratch across the stone floor. Whipping around to face Jackson, we watch as he rises, almost like he's being reborn. Once he's stood tall, we all finally get to see the wolf like features on his face, along with the bright blue eyes of a beta. I take a couple of steps back, and stumble into Derek's chest. He pulls me into his side, cradling me. Lydia jumps into Jacksons arms, and they hug eachother tightly. Stiles moves past us, tears still streaming down his face. 'I scratched my jeep.' He says, as if we'd truly believe that's why he's crying. We all know he's madly in love with Lydia, and to hear her say she loves someone else must be heart breaking.
A feeling swells in my chest, something i've never felt before. It's so foreign and new, but it warms my chest. Burying my head into Derek's chest, i grab onto his shirt and let the tears fall. The Kanima is gone, Jackson got what he wanted, and Gerard has been poisoned, meaning he'll never turn into a werewolf. Finally, i can sleep. I plan on skipping the next week of school, and never leaving my bed. Stiles leaves first, after allowing me to give him a bone crushing hug, and the promise to talk to him soon. Allison and Chris leave together to look for Gerard, while Scott leaves alone too, leaving Isaac, Peter, Derek and I. Peter disappears into the darkness, and for now i don't want to know where he's going. Derek half carries me to my car, and sits me in the passenger seat. He gives Isaac the keys to the Camaro, and tells him that he'll collect it tomorrow. He puts a reassuring hand on his shoulder before gently pushing him towards the car. The lull of the engine sends me into a blissful sleep, the first one i've had in weeks. Hopefully, things will calm down for now.
AN: I made it to the end of season 2! I'll be moving onto season 3 next! :) Hope ya'll enjoyed it! :D
All mistakes are mine; no beta.
