Stiles POV

"Coach wouldn't let me freaking leave till I showered." I yelled over to Scott. "Does he not think I have a freaking shower at my place?"

"Dude will you chill out?" Scott snapped. "I don't know why you are even so freaked out to begin with. Margie can handle herself. Especially when it comes to this kind of stuff. I mean she hasn't called"

"She could have lost her phone or had it taken or its in the hands of an evil." I said.

"What about Derek?" Scott said. "Did you try calling him?"

"Yeah same thing…" I said. "Look I need you to hurry up and track her man I can't just sit here!"

"Stiles" Scott called from the showers. "We will find her… calm down."

I shook my head. "You didn't … feel what I did or see what I did." I didn't understand. What the hell was going on? Why didn't Margie show up tonight? And what the fuck did I see.

"Well" He called over from the other side of the shower. "What did you feel? And what did you see?"

I looked around as everyone left. It was just Scott in the locker room with me. "When I was on the field-"

FLASHBACK

My breath was heavy from running around. I saw Scott to my side. I passed to him just as I felt the hard impact of another player from the other team. I fell to the ground and all I could feel was pain. But not from the hit. It was in my head. I didn't understand.

"NO!" I heard her yell. "I won't help! You want justice? Make this public, don't kill them!" The green spirit yelled as she tried to pull the pull eyed one away from the red eyed one. But he would not budge.

"You will understand… but now we are going…"

"let go of me… LET GO"

"BILENSKI" I felt someone slap my face. I looked up to see coach. What the hell just happened? "You alright?" I nodded as he pulled me up. "GOOD because I am not swapping you for Greenberg. MOVE IT"

END FLASHBACK

"I just kept playing… but the whole time I was looking for Margie…" I said as I looked to Scott. I tied my shoes and was heading to the door.

"How do you have visions anyway?" Scott asked. "This isn't normal man.

"I know!" I snapped. "At this point I just want to know that she is okay-"

Just as I said this the lights turned off. "Do they know we are still in here?"

"I guess not" I said as I looked around. As I walked down the rows of lockers a heard something… like sobbing. "Dude do you hear that?" I asked.

"DEREK" I heard Scott yell. I did a 180 and ran to the showers. Sure enough he was standing there. Alone. My stomach dropped.

"Where is margie?" I asked.

"Margie… is fine." We both turned to see a man stepping into view, with a glowing green Margie in hand. With a hand over her mouth. "Sorry about that." He let go of her mouth but kept her close. "She is a bit frazzled today… a lot has happened."

"Stiles! Scott!" She sobbed. "Get out now! Run!"

"Margie." I tried to walk forward but Scott stopped me. "Margie are you okay?" I tried to keep a level voice but I couldn't. I tried to walk forward but Scott stopped me.

"Hold on!" Scott said.

"To answer your question." The man said. "She is fine… she was a bit stubborn coming with us. But when I threatened a passerby or two she was much easier to deal with." The man looked at me and smiled. "You must be Stiles I am Peter. I have heard you and Margie are quite close… would things be easier if I let her go?"

"Yes!" we all said save for Derek. Peter smiled and let her go. She ran into my arms and I held her close. I pulled away to inspect her and I my blood boiled. There was blood on her face and her eyes were watery, but through the blood and the tears she smiled. I put an arm around her and looked around.

"Now does someone want to tell me what the fuck is going on?" I snapped. Margie gripped my shirt and looked up at me.

"I think a bit of a story is involved." Peter, smiled at me. "First off let me really introduce myself, I am Derek… and Margie's Uncle."

Margie POV

FLASHBACK

"I won't help! You want justice? Make this public, don't kill them!" I screamed as I tried to pull Derek out of there but he wouldn't move. "Derek come on!"

"He won't leave." Peter said. "Not until he hears everything. That is what family is for after all." He cooed. I hated his voice. It was far to calm for this situation. "You know I met you before. In fact I was the only person in the Hale family that knew you existed." He said. "See I drove Auntie Iz, as we called her all the way to Boston to see you. And even then I knew you would be special." He touched my cheek. "I never saw your gran after that… but I drove up every once in a while just to see if you were okay. In a way… you were like a daughter to me. You filled a hole that I didn't know I had. I got to know you a bit, I even talked to Katherine. She is a fantastic person, smart, strong, everything a witch should be, but you are the real talent of the house. Especially with all that power in you…"

"Too bad you can't kill me for my powers" I spat. "Not like your other niece.

"I didn't mean to!" He snapped. "Do you know what it is like to finally heal… and when that happens… you see your dead niece at your feet?" Something was off… I couldn't really understand it. "I begged the world for a second chance… and then you appear, just as I decide to get my revenge." He laughed. "You are my second chance to rebuild a family. You weren't touched by the fire… that and your powers made you perfect to rebuild the family lost and get revenge for them."

"You killed all those people for revenge?" Derek spat. "You think Laura would want you to waste her life like that?"

"LAURA WASN'T THERE" He yelled. "She didn't see people burn and Derek… you have to realize this isn't just about revenge. This is about survival."

"Then it would be called survival." I said. "not murder."

"There you go Margaret… thinking in the boring world…" He sighed. "You need to realize I am fighting for both you and Derek."

"Don't put this on us" Derek had been silent for a while I turned to him for some help but he wouldn't look at me… "Derek?" I questioned, but still he said nothing. "DEREK!"

"He is figuring it out." Peter said. "Should you tell her or should I?"

"If he killed the hunters… Kate included. No one will know about us here… we could have a life." Derek said. "We –You- would be safe. Not to mention the fact that they have lived normal lives after YEARS of suppressing us. Hunting us for what? Being different? No… I will not live that way… I will not let you live that way."

"And he gets it!" Peter said.

"Derek no…" I was trying not to cry. "Don't! You know this isn't right. This is wrong!"

"This isn't about right or wrong Margie this is about-"

"If you say survival I will shove my Tonfas right up your ass!" I spat. "There is more than survival here." I pleaded to Derek. "I know you… you don't want to do this. Please don't do this."

"You definitely have the Hale fire!" Peter looked on at me with a strange gaze. I turned back to Derek and looked at him… he didn't seem convinced. "But you don't understand… not yet at least." Peter walked forward and I shied from him. "You will when you realize what is at stake. Who." My head snapped up and he smiled. "But for now we need to go." He reached for me.

"I am not going anywhere with you." I walked away and tried to go for the door but he grabbed me. "Let go of me… LET GO" I screamed. "Derek PLEASE. Fight this!" I struggled against him glowing green until I finally pushed him away from me. I ran after that until he grabbed me again.

"I didn't want to do this… but when you wake up you won't be in any pain… I promise." He sounded like my father when he was comforting me. I was disgusted. Next thing I knew I felt a sharp pain at the top of my head and I fell into someone's arms.

END FLASH BACK

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

"So you see." Peter finished explaining… I felt wrong. Like I shouldn't be clinging to Stiles. I should be fighting him… but I couldn't fight Derek too… not just because he was family… but because he was my friend. I loved him like a brother. I just couldn't fight him. I was so weak. I was so stupid! "Margie… is part of my family and pack." He stepped forward slowly "Just like you Scott."

"She isn't part of Jack shit." Stiles said as he tightened his hold around me. "And neither is Scott."

"Yeah and I won't help you kill anyone." Scott stepped forward. "I don't care if you want justice it is tell murder."

"We will only kill those responsible… the girl doesn't have to die… what is her name?" My heart broke a bit when he turned to Derek. He knew her name, he just wanted Scott to know.

"Allison." Derek said.

"You son of a bitch!" Stiles snapped. "You are helping him? Did you not see all the dead bodies? Or the fact that he attacked Margie?!"

"He never attacked her… at the school she attacked him." Derek said.

"So she just decided to smear blood on her face."

"Peter healed her…" Derek looked down. I thought I would never see the day where Derek couldn't look someone in the eye. But today he couldn't make eye contact.

"Oh that is great so people can beat the shit out of each other as long as you FUCKING HEAL THEM" Stiles snapped.

"You know what?" My heart stopped as Stiles caught Peter's attention. "I think you boys need to understand where I am coming from." Before I could move he stabbed his hand into Scott's neck and Scott fell to the floor.

I saw him reach for Stiles… and something clicked in my head. My body moved forward into a one handed cartwheel so I could go into a hand spring and wrap my legs around Peter's neck and throw him to the ground. Once on the ground I began to walk forward and I put a hand on his chest. I wanted him to burn. I needed him to burn and as if it understood the glowing light began to pulsate… I put a hand to his chest in a sadistic curious way. And for the first time I saw him squirm… I saw him writhe under my hands. I smiled a bit until someone pinned me to a way. I looked to see Derek and reached for him… but the green light retracted. I looked at him with sad eyes. Derek… my friend… my family. I had thought of him as family before I found out the truth… but this … this killed me. I didn't want to hurt him like I did to Peter…

"Margaret… Margaret." Peter got up slowly. "That was… fantastic… you truly are a power."

"Don't touch him." I spat. "Or I will do it again…"

"I don't doubt that." He said. "Fine… I will leave him alone. For you." He stepped up to me and kissed my forehead. "Think about your family in the next few days… and who you want to protect. The lines have been drawn for centuries you just need to be on the right one." With that Derek let me go and they left.

Stiles was trying to help Scott… my friend. The one I couldn't protect. I looked down at my hands and thought of the power. The fact that I just knew I could do it, but why did it leave. Would it leave again when I needed it? I had failed Scott today. But I wouldn't again. Tomorrow I would get answers and I knew where to go but tonight… I was going to have a break down.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Stiles POV

"That SHIT" Kathy threw her glass into the fire while Kaeden washed the blood from his daughter's face. "I don't care if we are related. I am going to tear out his intestines and make them the trimming on my goddamn Christmas tree and his testicles will be the fucking Star on top. How is that for getting involved in the family tree."

"Sweetie be realistic here." Kaeden said. "The skull would be better. We could put a light in it." He turned his daughter's head. "It is strange… are you sure this blood is yours?"

"I think so…" Margie said. "why do you ask."

"Because … you are completely healed." Kaeden put down a wet dish clothe and looked at her.

"I am guessing that Alpha healed her." Kathy said. "Werewolves have the power to 'heal' or transfer pain, but when it is used on a moon witch it becomes twelve times more effective. One of the many reasons that people think we have a connection."

"I see." I nodded. She was fine then… but it didn't mean that she didn't bleed like that. The blood was still there. I should have been there… I don't know how but I would have gotten her out. And I sure as hell wouldn't have stabbed her in the back for Peter. "So what do we do now."

Kathy leaned back and thought. "I know an herbalists down town. I can get supplies to make the house safe and I have some ideas to make my magic more potent and how to go against werewolves but they are just ideas."

"It's all we have" Kaeden said. "Maybe we should reach out to the hunters-"

"No" Kathy shook her head. "If we do that it is picking a side and I don't want to deal with the consequences."

"What about Derek?" Margie whispered. "He is our family… what do we do for him…"

"Not a damn thing." I scoffed. "Margie he picked his side."

"But he-" She looked up to me with confliction. "I just don't understand…"

"Course you don't" Kaeden said. "We will figure it out tomorrow. For now go to bed."

Margie nodded and got up. She walked upstairs and I followed with only a nod to Kaeden and Kathy. I watched as she moved up the stairs, she was like a ghost. Her movements were hollow and she looked almost dead. I didn't understand. Was Derek that special? She always said he was like a brother to her… maybe it was just too much. When we got into her room she just fell into bed.

"You want to talk about it." I asked.

"No." She muttered.

"Well do you want to change at least?" I said. "Heels can't be that comfortable."

She sat up and went to her closet. She didn't care I was watching as she stripped down. She looked over as she pulled on a top. "What will you wear? Jeans can't be better."

"I keep a duffle in my car." I held it up. "Figured it would be smart."

"Right…" She said. "Scott text you yet?"

"Yeah… he is fine." I looked up at her as I remembered how she tore Peter apart in the lockers. I had never seen her like that. So violent. I knew she was fighting for me. But she shouldn't have had to. "Thanks by the way."

"For what?" She scoffed. "For letting our friend get attacked? Or for getting caught like a mouse by Peter"

"Hey you kicked ass!" I said as I led her to the bed. "When no one else thought to. You ran at trouble while I just… let you" I pulled her into my arms and let her rest on my chest. "I should have done something… I should have done anything."

"We both have a lot on our minds don't we?" She whispered. "Like this new power… can I use it but I don't know how to bring it back."

"We will figure it out…" I kissed her hair. "I had a vision…" I finally said. She sat up and looked at me. "Of you in danger… and I just looked passed it. I didn't think."

"But how…" She looked at me with a hard stare. "None of this makes sense."

"I know." I reached forward and cupped her face. "But… like I said we will figure it out." I pulled her in and crashed my lips against hers. This wasn't a horny teenage make out fest. This was a desperate attempt to feel better. At first Mars seemed ready for the kiss. She returned it and let her body fall on me. After a little while though Margie pulled away a bit and rested back on my chest.

"I think I need to sleep." She whispered. She gripped my shirt and nuzzled into me. "I just can't-"

"Hey…" I cooed. "You don't have to explain."

Margie POV

I looked up at Stiles and smiled. Despite everything I was feeling… being around him made me feel better. I wanted to stay like this, but things never played out well. After a while Stiles fell asleep, but I couldn't. I looked up at him and pushed myself from bed. I just meant to go get a drink of water, but before I knew it I was in Derek's loft. Like he would be there asking if he needed to throw Stiles out. I looked around and found his duffle was gone. I walked around for any sign he was here to begin with. I closed my eyes and thought of his excited smile when he first showed me the loft. Or the way he was always looking out for me. He would snap but he would already be helping me. Or the times we sparred and he smiled at my improvement. He was always looking for my improvement. I even missed the way he would threaten Stiles. I stood out on the balcony and choked back a sob.

"You stupid idiot!" I sobbed. "Just come back… I know it wasn't long, but come home!"

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I walked out of the classroom to find Scott and Stiles waiting for me. It had been like this all day. No one could get near me without the wonder twins stepping in before. Which was pretty fucking ridiculous since we knew who the threats were. I walked down the empty hall with a sigh. I needed to use the restroom how the hell did they know whenever I was going to leave my classroom? I went to the door to find both boys stepping in front of it.

"If I used the Men's room would that be easier for you two?" I snapped.

"Yes." Stiles stated. "After we make sure no one is in there." He added.

"It is not like I am going to run away!" I said. "Now let me use the bathroom."

Both boys looked at each other and then stepped aside. I pursed my lips as I pushed passed them. I was really done with them today. I went to the mirror and began to adjust my face when Allison walked in.

"So why are both Stiles and Scott waiting for you?" Allison asked with a raised eyebrow.

"They have just been on high alert…" I shrugged. "They also are clingy." I took a pause and looked at Allison. "How are things with you?" I knew Scott was right outside but this was the closest to privacy I was getting today.

"Good… I think I am going to confront Lydia about … you know."

"Yeah…" I nodded. "Look I don't really know why she did it… but what I do know is she values your friendship…" I said.

"I know… that is why I just need to ask her about it." Allison said. "Hey… what are you doing after school?"

"You mean in 30 minutes?"

"Yeah" She said. "Lydia and I were going Shopping… and I wanted to run an errand before… do you want to come?"

"Yeah!" I nodded. "I need a break from the wonder twins anyway." I said as I walked to the door. "See you in a bit!" I waved her off as I walked out of the room only to meet the glare of two unhappy boys.

"First of all" Stiles began. "The wonder twins?" he scoffed. "there are so many better duos to pick from"

"I know" I shrugged as I walked down the hall. "But right now you are the wonder twins"

Stiles snorted and then looked at me. "Secondly… you are not going with them."

Let me tell you something. I am a sweet tempered person… I think. Until someone tries to tell me what to do. Then I get a bit crazy and stupid. "Really now?" I raised an eyebrow. "And why is that?"

"Why is-" Stiles gave me a confused look. Come on buddy, you could still crawl out of this grave you have dug for yourself. "Because there is an Alpha that is after."

"Yeah… that is old news." I said. "he has been after me since I moved here and I still did things without you two."

"Yeah but now he has Derek" I flinched at his name. I didn't want to hear about him.

"A wanted fugitive that can't be seen in public!" I argued. "Which makes your whole escort thing un needed in school!" I said. "And I don't need your permission."

"Well fine then you are still not going." Stiles said.

"If I want to I will." I snapped. "And plus!" I looked at them. "You guys are on Jackson duty right? And you decided that I am not allowed to hang around him by your orders so what am I supposed to do. Sit in a corner and convulse?" I was mad and on edge. Derek betrayed us. I failed us. Peter was walking around with blood drenched hands and I just wanted to be there for my friends, but that was too freaking much.

"If it keeps you safe then YES" Stiles snapped back. "I mean is that not even important to you?" He seemed mad and frustrated. "But you know what? Since shopping with your friends is far more important than your own safety go ahead." He snapped. "We have a million problems, and if you want to have some hissy fit about things not being convenient for you Go ahead. because if you haven't noticed, Scott and I made you a priority because we care about happens to you, even if you don't! Or when you are being an idiot. So go ahead be an idiot! It would be so much more convenient for us if we didn't have to worry about you so why not?" he was daring me. Like I was supposed to back down because I saw that he cared.

"I WILL" I snapped as I turned a heel and walked away. I was so mad, I was so freaking done. I didn't know if he said anything else but I was really just done talking thank you Very much.

Stiles POV

"Stiles…" Scott said.

"yeah…" I said as I watched Margie walk away. I was stunned. We didn't fight. Not even as friends. I wanted to chase her down the hall and say sorry, but I couldn't. She needed to understand that I wouldn't just be okay with her running into danger… not like last night. "Let's just go."

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Allison POV

"So Allison." Margie said point blank as she trailed after me. I heard the leaves crackle under her boots. I kept my focus on the getting my bow ready. "When you said 'confront' Lydia. You didn't mean take her out to the woods and shoot her with a bunch of arrows did you?"

I laughed a bit. "No… but now that you think about."

"Hey … don't make me a witness." She joked we both laughed but hers seemed forced.

"Witness?" Lydia called from behind us. "What are you talking about? Because I already said I was sorry!"

"Nothing" I smiled. "And don't worry I will forgive you after I make you work for it."

"Spoken like someone who has been under my influence for too long." Lydia sighed. "Anyway let's talk about something… fun. Margie" Margie turned to Lydia. "How is Stiles… did he like his surprise?"

I rolled my eyes. Margie had been on cloud nine since she started dating Stiles. This is the first day I had seen her seem upset. "Um… we got into a fight before it…" She said.

"What?" I looked up. "What about?"

"I" she took a breath. "I have been stressed about a lot and I took it out on him and then he wouldn't just let me so he fired back and I just stormed away from him." She said. "I think he is really mad. He won't even text me." She then sighed and tucked her hair back. "God I was stupid, he was trying to look out for me, but I just had to have things my way."

"Apologize." I said as I aimed my bow. "Trust me when I say you don't want to ruin something great because or your own pride or not talking about it…" Scott flashed through my mind. And I fired.

Margie POV

"you are right…" I bit my lip. What was I doing? Light flashed in my eyes. "Shit" I said as I looked at the tree. "What was that."

"I don't know…" Allison replied.

"Well great!" Lydia clapped her hands together and smiled. "Any other lethal weapons you want to try out?" Just as she said this I heard a noise. Please be a bunny, please be jasper the friendly forest bunny who was in no way an alpha.

"Stay here." Allison said.

"one of the last lines of any stereotype in a horror movie" I snapped. "No we all go together." I pulled out my brass knuckles and walked through the woods. At first I thought it was nothing… then Scott was on the ground twitching.

"Oh MY GOD" Allison pulled her hand away and bent down. "I am so sorry!"

"My que to leave." Lydia muttered as she walked away.

"It was totally my fault." Scott grunted. "Hey Margie…"

"Hey Scott" I waved. "So… have you finally resorted to following Allison?"

"No I wasn't following her… Mr. Argent said she takes this trail sometimes… I was hoping I would catch her here."

"Scott?"

"Yeah?"

"That is considered following." I joked.

He let out a chuckle. "Well one reason I am here is to talk to her."

"What about?" Allison questioned.

"I found this…" He pulled out the necklace. Not exactly a lie…

"Oh thank you… but you could have just given it to me at school" Allison gave him a long hug. Seeing them make up just made me happy. They deserved it. Scott definitely after everything he had done. I was happy for them.

"Yeah it would have saved me a taser…" Scott said as he got up. "But the main reason I am here…" he looked up at me. "Is Margie"

"Me?" I stepped forward. "What is up?"

Scott knocked his head to the side gesturing for me to follow him. I nodded to Allison and followed him out of earshot. "He asked me to check on you…"

My heart jumped a bit but I still felt crappy. "Why didn't he come?" I pouted.

"He thought you would run away again." Scott said. "That and he keeps staring down at his phone debating whether or not he should text you."

"Oh…" I looked down. I needed to go and tell him how sorry I was.

"Look I know that you are going through a lot, and feeling what you are feeling isn't wrong… but it just went too far." Scott said. "on both sides… one of you has to give."

"I know…" I nodded. "And it's me… he was right. I was going selfish and I did pretty much have a preteen hissy."

"If it makes you feel better…" Scott smiled awkwardly. "He is about an hour away from buying you a pony or something."

"Maybe I should hold out…" I joked.

"I would…" Scott said. "I always wanted a pony" I laughed. "What they are not just a girl thing!" he then looked to Allison. "Hey I think I am going to take Margie to Stiles'" He looked back at me. "Unless you aren't okay with that."

"I am more than okay with that." I said as I waved my friends goodbye.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Stiles POV

"I think Peter is saving the Argent family for last." I said into Scott's machine. "And also… I think peter is hiding in the woods I will tell you why later. Call me back… and tell me how Margie is okay?" I stepped into my room see Margie pacing back and forth.

She looked up at me and stared at me with a conflicted look. I scanned her body for any type of injury but she was fine. Great… so I could still be mad. "If you want an apology you won't get it."

"Sti-"

"No let me get this out." I looked at her. "I have watched you put yourself into harms way far to much. More than you should in fact!" I stepped forward. "And I don't think you can ask me to just cheer you on. I don't want to see you hurt and I am going to do what I have to protect. You may have this hero complex but if you got hurt… or if you died. I would go out of my mind. I would not be able to handle it." I cupped her face in frustration. "So don't get mad at me for trying to keep you safe."

"Stiles" She spoke calmly. "I am sorry."

"See you just don't get it!" I then looked down at her. "You are… sorry"

"Yeah… you were looking out for me and I just acted like a kid who wasn't getting her way. And I know there are times were I will have to run into danger but I shouldn't be so stupid about it. Also it isn't just that, Derek going… hurt and watching you almost get attacked scared me in to many ways. I couldn't have that and I can't ask you just be okay with me doing stuff while you sit in the side lines because that isn't how a relationship works. And I want this relationship to work. I am so sorry-"

Margie POV

I felt his lips press against mine. I was surprised but I wrapped my arms around him in a second. "I forgive you." He panted as he let my jacket fall to the ground.

I fell on the bed and watched as he leaned down on me. "Thank god you apologized." He said. "Because I was about ten minutes from doing something stupid to make you smile."

"I don't need something stupid to be happy." I breathed. "I need you."

He smiled and kissed me again hard this time. I threw my hands up for him to take off my shirt. He did and then I pulled his off. He smiled and looked up at me. I breathed as he fell on top of me and began to kiss my neck. I breathed as I looked at him. And then… his phone rang.

"I hate phones." Stiles groaned "they are shit."

"I understand." I giggled. "Just get it over with."

"Got it." He answered. "Scott- wait what- yeah… Okay" He looked down at me and threw me my shirt.

Well guess that is done.
