(Here is the next one. Enjoy.)
Derek's P.O.V
I looked around quickly before stuffing my hands in my jean pockets, I had forgotten my leather jacket. Which was upsetting to me. I didn't want to leave Stiles, but I knew I had to, so I could keep him safe. The wind was chilling against my bare arms. It was dark, but because of my enhanced vision it wasn't as dark as it would be to humans. I was wondering if Gerard would be out here when right on queue he stepped out from being a tree.
He smiled at me and stepped closer. "Why Derek, I would of never guessed that you would be this gracious. Willing to pass on an extravagant gift" he mumbled.
"You know, its not as extravagant as you may think" I mumbled as I watched him carefully. The kanima was close, I could smell it lingering somewhere in the trees above our heads.
He rose an eyebrow at me "yes I'm very aware of that, but when it comes to power its the best medicine."
Behind me I could hear footsteps, many of them. Ones that Gerard couldn't hear. I inhaled deeply, picking up the scent to see if I should run or stand my ground. The scent was of werewolves, and they were mine. This almost brought a smile to my face. I know knew I had backup so any surprises and we would be ready. A thought hit me and I sniffed the air again. Okay, no human just werewolf. I thought that Stiles would follow them, but I was wrong. I've never been so happy to be wrong.
"So all you want is power? I think you had that when you cut an innocent omega in half" I mumbled.
He chuckled "yeah, but it takes a lot to slash through a few betas and an alpha" he stated, a small smile forming on his face.
Before I could speak a wave of growl and snarls erupted from the bush behind me. A slight smirk appeared on my face.
Gerard glanced at the bush behind me nervously, before shaking his head. "So I see you've brought company" he mumbled and once again regained his confident manner. Something moved above his head.
I looked up at the branch above us. The kanima was gripped onto the branch. It's tail swung around the tree trunk. A hiss escaped its lips as it leaned forward slightly.
I looked back down at Gerard. "Yes I have...now let's get this thing over with" I mumbled and took a step forward.
He walked closer to me and pulled his jacket sleeve up off his arm. He stretched his arm out to me. "Now if you try something slick...Jackson will be after Stiles. This time he won't be paralyzed, he will be dead" he grumbled.
My protective nature kicked in and at that moment I wanted to rip his throat out. I had to contain myself though. I couldn't let him win this.
He pushed his arm out toward me, his palm facing the sky.
I grabbed his arm tightly. I opened my mouth slightly and leaned closer. I hesitated slightly before clamping onto his arm. I could feel my fangs sink into his akin as he grunted in pain. My enhanced vision made the world around me become red, noting that my eyes were glowing. I quickly pulled away and released his arm from my grip. My vision turned back to normal as I looked back at the bite mark I had left. Red liquid was slightly seeping out through the wound.
Before Gerard put his arm down the red liquid turned into a black substance. I looked up at him.
He was totally oblivious to what was happening. He smiled and clenched his fists. Before he could have much of a celebration his nose started leaking black liquid as well. He lifted his hand and rubbed his nose. He looked at his finger that was now covered in black. He looked up at me a scowl on his face, he looked at Jackson. "Find him and kill him" he mumbled and a smiled formed on his face as he looked back at me.
All I knew is that I had to do something and fast.
