Chapter 36

Battle Plan

Part 2

Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here! The season 2 finale continues on! And ugh, there's snow! Me no likey!

5:55 PM

While Scott and the others got some rest, the Sheriff had been busily spending his time trying to help locate Allison and Matt with the help of the greater Beacon Hills Police Force since he had so few Deputies left after Matt had attacked a week ago. Some of his Deputies that had been at the Department that night had survived the attack but it would take some considerable amount of time before they recovered fully. And while it was nice he didn't have to have an APB out for Jackson anymore, it wasn't so nice that Matt Daehler was still alive. Something he hated to think but that kid was a downright menace who needed to be put away for good. The man hoped like Hell that Allison was alright and not even more screwed up thanks to that little shit now that he had her in his grasp again. And he was already planning to have look outs at the big game tonight in case there was any sigh of Allison or Matt there.

Though he could have gone without Chris Argent having men on look out too as it only made him think about things he didn't want to think about thanks to that night and what he was told by Talia Hale. The whole thing also dampened his spirits about the big game tonight as well but he would still none the less be in attendance as a way to keep an eye out and enjoy the game. And maybe get to see his own son play too for that matter. Jackson Whittemore himself wasn't too happy after finding out he was being forced to sit out the game due to the worry that it would be too much for him after all he'd been through lately. No amount of trying to talk his way out of that got him anywhere much to his annoyance and so he resigned himself to sitting in the crowd with his parents and the others not playing in the game. Course he coulda done without Aiden being around as he wasn't liking the guy being around Lydia.

But reap what you sew and all that. He did take some satisfaction however in the fact that McCall, Boyd, and Harlowe had promised him that they would ensure the game was won as they were meant to be the victors. Something he whole heartedly agreed with and couldn't wait to be able to play again next year and help lead the team to the championship and win! His adopted parents had even asked if he wanted to leave Beacon Hills after what he'd been through, but he adamantly said no as running was not the option to run with. And that he finally knew about his blood family and to be taken from that just seemed cruel. Thankfully they understood and left it alone after that and he was even more thankful for the fact that Peter Hale, who was somehow alive again, was leaving him alone as well. Though he suspected Aunt Talia had something to do with it.

He still hadn't really spoken with Derek as he wasn't quite sure of what to say. Especially with the fact that his own cousin wanted to kill him cause of his being a Kanima! Even with the fact that he KNEW they were related! But at least Cora and Laura were pretty cool, even if he was still a little miffed with the older girl for slapping him. Even telling her as much and earning an eye roll and being told that he'd eventually get his big boy pants on and get over it. Ponting out that he had been an ass that night and when he actually thought about it, he realized the woman was right and wondered if he should bother with an apology. As he figured the Sheriff had dealt with worse then him before. However, Jackson really didn't get Cora's interest in the Sheriff's son but he left it alone as he really didn't want to know in the end.

His friendship with Danny was something he was thankful for in not having lost thanks to the crap Matt had forced him to deal with. Causing him to be forever stuck with the curse of having blue eyes rather then gold ones. Unless he became an Alpha and that wasn't a responsibility he even really wanted thank you very much. As he could tell that was something that was so much more serious then what being Captain of the Lacrosse or Swim teams was. Hell, it made him wonder how McCall handled it considering he's an Alpha for that matter. And if it wasn't for being able to think about that, he'd be going nuts over thinking about that nutjob Matt and whatever he's planning next. As whatever it was, it couldn't be any good.

Jackson also had to admit that a group of four nearby gave him an unpleasant feeling that he couldn't shake. And had even pointed them out to the others and grew curious when the twins and Kali frowned and explained that one of the four was the mysterious man who'd attacked McCall earlier that morning. Making the former Kanima wonder how the Hell an old guy like that managed to pull that off!? It made him wonder what his fellow Captain would think or do about the situation! He also wondered just who the heck the midget and the guy in the suit were for that matter! As he could see Allison's mom glaring at the suit guy and him doing his best to avoid it!

Meanwhile, In The Locker Room

Melissa had headed off to the Locker Room in the hopes she might have a word or two with Scott before he went out to the field. Kanela following along as well with a curiousness about her. A noise from Coach Finstock's megaphone however soon caught their attention. "Good morning, in less then an hour, aircraft from here will be joining others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind." Began the man and making the mother and the teenager look at one another in shock.

Kanela clearly thought the man had lost his ever loving mind and it was clear Melissa was of the same opinion too! Finstock looked contemplative for a moment before speaking again. "Mankind… That, that word should have new meaning for all of us today."

Seeing Stiles, Melissa leaned in slightly to ask him a question. "Is he… Is he seriously using the Independence Day speech?" She asked incredulously.

"Yep, does it every year." Answered the teenager and while Scott was just grinning like a loon as he loved the Hell out of what was going on!

Even Vernon was a bit amused by the whole thing too! "Seriously?" Asked Kanela in shock before Melissa could.

"Yep."

"Wow. And I thought some of my family were nutters." Muttered the girl to herself while Melissa just shook her head at the incredulousness of it all.

And hoped her son wouldn't catch that kind of insanity! "We are fighting for our right to live!"

"YEAH!" Cheered the players.

"But as the day the world declared in one voice-"

"This is Coach's favorite movie." Supplied Stiles helpfully.

"WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THE NIGHT!"

"YEAH!"

"Does he seriously not know any other speeches? Sports ones maybe?" Wondered Melissa in shock.

Stiles shook his head with a shrug. "Nah, I really don't think he cares."

Kanela facepalmed herself. "By ol' Oberon himself, what a nutter!"

"TODAY WE CELEBRATE OUR INDEPENDENCE DAY!" Yelled out Finstock finally as he finished the last of the speech.

"YEAH!" Cheered the teenagers.

"LETS FUCK 'EM UP LIKE THEY'VE NEVER BEEN FUCKED UP BEFORE!" Called out an energized and grinning Scott.

Harley facepalmed herself while everyone looked at him for a moment in shock before his team mates cheered loudly over that one. Making his mom shake her head while a certain Elfing, Vernon, Harley, and Isaac were thinking the young Alpha to be a complete nut job! One who was gonna absorb Finstock's insanity to be even worse! A line of thought that made Harley shudder over! "Now... Asses on the field!" Finstock yelled.

"YEAH!"

Everyone was soon out the door while Melissa and Kanela made their way back to the stands where the others were. And Kali would be the first to notice the somewhat shell shocked expressions on their faces! "Are you two alright?" Asked the Alpha Mother in concern.

Melissa turned to her and stared at her for a moment. "Coach Finstock is insane." Declared the woman finally.

"I coulda told you that myself, man likes to be called Cupcake." Supplied Jameson helpfully as he helped Nancy Harlowe settle in and making those present with them snort in amusement.

"I rest my case." Sighed the Nurse Mother with a shake of the head while Nancy didn't quite think she even wanted to know.

Kali stared at her girlfriend for a moment and decided that no, she really didn't want to know anymore either. "Ooh, I do love seeing Scott in his uniform." Muttered Natalie Martin to herself with a slight shiver and smile on her lips and making Kali stare in her direction with a frown.

Causing Lydia to look at her with disgust all over her face. "Mom! PLEASE do NOT drool over the Annoying One!"

As that was just disturbing on soooo many levels! "Oh sweetie, be nice as Scott is not that bad." Replied the woman and making Aiden snort and begin to wonder if his little 'brother' really had slept with the woman.

Nah, no way that really happened.

And soon, Scott and his fellow team mates got out onto the field with the crowd cheering in massive approval. The game began soon afterwards and it became a highly intense one as time went on. Scott and Harley showed their dominance out on the field as the 'Twin Tornadoes'. Something that in the young Alpha's mind had felt like forever since it had last happened and was greatly enjoying it! The fact he had Kira cheering so much for him made him enjoy it that much more as well. Nothing bad was going on aside from the whole Allison/Matt thing and the 4 man group he had definitely noticed in the crowd, one of whom was munching on some popcorn as they watched the game and Scott just felt really glad about it all aside from the two worrisome issues. Worrisome issues he hoped would get taken care of real soon.

Vernon would certainly prove his mettle out on the field as he effectively helped prevent anyone from presenting a problem to his fellow team mates. And it'd be him who would end up deciding the final moment of the game after Stiles would end up throwing him the ball. Thanks largely in part to the fact that he was getting boxed in by several of the opposing players and various yells to throw it came at him. Cora being among those and when he spotted Boyd, he knew what he had to do. "BOYD! CATCH!"

And catch he did and took off running for the goal and made a successful throw, sending everyone into an uproar as it meant the Cyclones had won the game. "THAT'S MY MUTHA FUCKAS!" Called out Scott excitedly as Harley whooped in excitement over their victory.

Cora rushed out to the field and gave her boyfriend a kiss before he, along with Vernon were put on the shoulders of the celebrating team while Scott and Kira shared a deep kiss of their own while hugging one another tightly. Jackson was happy over the win but also saddened as well due to the fact he hadn't been able to play. Next year, I will definitely be part of this next year. Promised the young man to himself.

The lights suddenly going out however would alarm the Hell out of everyone until a Cross that wasn't there before lit up in flames and Kira's unconscious self was near it until the lights came back on with a truck nearby and the foursome who'd been with them in the stands earlier being in it. "Sorry to interrupt the fun and all, but we've got places to be." Declared a smug Matt Daehler and even helpfully raised up Scott's head to show that they had him with them.

And he wasn't awake either. The truck then hauled ass while Kira's parents got her the Hell away from the burning Cross. Melissa clutched tightly to Kali with tears streaming down her face as she screamed out in fear of what had happened. Aiden and Ethan, along with Laura and Derek soon took off to track down Daehler and the others before they did anything truly horrible to Scott while a stunned Stiles held on to Cora and hoped his re-united 'brother' was brought back home safe and sound. And for Harley, the sight of a burning Cross made her think of the Klan and she hoped like Hell that they weren't involved in any of it and was soon surprised when she felt her hand being grabbed and squeezed by her mother. Who she quickly hugged and felt great relief when she was hugged back, causing tears to come down her face. We're gonna get you back, Scott. One way or another, I promise you we will. Promised the girl to herself as she was comforted by her mother for the first time in days.

Author's Notes: Oh damn! That can't be good for Scott! I was actually gonna have the KKK show up here but in the end I decided against it. Though they may show up in the third and final part of the season 2 finale. Which I certainly believe will show to be quite the ride!
