Authors note:
I was asked earlier in the week what my plans were at the end of this season since the story does follow the show. I would like to continue to do so when season 4 comes along, but I do not want to leave Familiar stranger sitting for so long. So I am thinking of doing some sort of summer vacation type of thing for the pack, but that's just a rough idea. I am also thinking of digging back into Eva's past or possibly bringing someone from either her past or the past of the twins back for some drama in the mean time. Ideas are more than welcome, but I do feel as if I will be a bit more clear on this once tonights episode airs.
As always, bring on the reviews, they're not mandatory, but totally encourage.
And I do hope that you all Enjoy!

It wasn't often when Eva awoke to an empty house, but that just so happened to be the case on that very morning. Despite all that had been going on with herself and within their pack, she was in a relatively good mood upon waking up that morning. She could feel it, though, this buzz of pent up energy just begging to be let out. Eva knew what had to be done, so instead of going to hop into the shower, she opted to instead just brush her teeth, comb the snarls out of her hair, and throw it into a pony tail. She then tossed the pajamas she had been wearing the night before off from herself before slipping into a pair of yoga crop leggings, and a sports bra that matched the pattern along the waist of the yoga pants. After tossing a sweater on over the bra, she slipped on a pair of socks and then her tennis shoes before heading out into the back yard.
Per her request, the boys had managed to string up a punching bag, it hung off from one of the thickest and sturdiest branches of the tree in the back yard. She watched it hanging stiff from the tree, not at all bothered by the slight breeze that blew through the trees, she had brought her yoga mat out with her, knowing that she would have to stretch before she was ready to throw any kind of blows at the punching bag.
It was as she stretched upon the mat that she found herself slowly dropping into that place of complete and total relaxation. Ever since she had begun first training with Aiden, when they had first put their differences aside, she found that just the idea of fighting, of releasing that ball of tension that seemed to always bounce around in her, put her in a sense of pure relaxation and complete serenity. She liked to use her fists, her feet, her claws, her fangs, whatever it was, she liked to use it to cause pain. Yes she did still have some sense of self control, she was at a very low risk of ever losing it, but she was not one who would ever run from a fight. Instead she would be right alongside her boys, running head first into the fight.
Finished with her stretching she stood from where she had been on the ground, stretching out the last of the tense muscles in her legs, before she approached the punching bag. It had taken Eva a lot of searching on the internet, a whole lot of the money she had saved up in her bank account, and a lot of luck for her to find a punching bag able to withstand the power that a werewolf exhibited. She wasn't the strongest of the pack, but she was the fastest, next to Scott, that was, and being able to land precision blows at such a quick pace could take It's toll on a bag. So far, this one had managed to survive.
Taking in a slow deep breath, Eva readied herself to attack before she began to aim punch after punch to the bag, kicks following her punches, with the intensity of the punches she was shaking the tree, but she didn't care. She continued to attack the large black bag with everything she had. It wasn't until she realized that she had been at it for what had to be hours that she stepped away from the punching bag, shaking out her fingers stiff from being held in a fist for so long. Her muscles felt both loose and tense at the same time, but she didn't completely give into the temptation to drop to the ground and give herself a rest. Instead she made her way back over to her yoga mat again.
She was going through all of her stretches again, that ball of tension long gone, she was in that place, that place of complete and clear serenity that settled over her most times after an intense battle or in this case, a work out. Eva was lost in herself, stretching out her muscles once more, which is how Aiden happened to come around the house and find his girlfriend in the downward dog pose, her backside on perfect display for him.
"I should drop by unannounced more often."
Eva spread her legs a little as her eyes opened so that she could see Aiden standing on the far side of the yard from her. She laughed before rolling her eyes at him and then closed her legs once more so that she could straighten herself up and stand. Turning she lifted her hands to her hips, sure that she was glistening with sweat after her intense little battle with the punching bag.
"Not that I would mind that at all, but what are you doing here?" She asked, since they had plans to meet up later in the day. She had thought that he had been with Ethan, searching for Stiles along with the others. The only reason she had been left at the house had been to stick around incase Stiles happened to come back to the house for one reason or another.
"Ethan and I were taking a quick breather from the hunt, I wanted to come and see how things were over here before getting back to it." Aiden admitted as he walked over to his sweaty, yet still very attractive, girlfriend.
"I see that you've been busy today. I'm also guessing you've heard nothing new." She shook her head at that before a soft frown came over her lips.
"Well, don't worry, we'll find him. That's a promise." Aiden assured her before placing a kiss upon her lips.
"I know, I know. I'm going to head in and take a shower, then get a hold of the others, see if they've found anything new." Eva told him before she allowed a small smile to appear upon her lips. "I'm staying hopeful. I know we will find him. I know we will. I can feel it." That was the truth, it was part of the ball of tension from earlier being relieved. She had a sudden clarity, one that seemed to be screaming that Stiles was closer than they thought and also that he was ok. That was all that mattered to her, that he was still alive, well, and nearby.
"Alright, go shower, stinky." Aiden joked, a grin appearing on his lips before kissing her again and then heading off in the direction in which he had came.
"Ass." She mumbled with a roll of her eyes before heading into the back door of the McCall house.

A sigh escaped from the plump lips the moment her shower was over, the hot water pounding down over her petite form had been just as calming and relaxing as her round with the punching bag had been. Stepping out of the shower, she began to dry herself with the towel hung on the rack near by, she hadn't bothered to shut the bathroom door all of the way, knowing that no one would be suddenly dropping by. She did have a little visitor, though, it was a fly, the annoying little insect went unnoticed by Eva as it swooped into the bathroom through the cracked door.
Eva wrapped the towel around herself, unaware of the fly buzzing in the room as she went to stand before the mirror, she lifted a hand to wipe the condensation and steam from the mirror, clearing it so she could look into it as she brushed through her wet hair. She was just about to finish up in the bathroom when the fly swooped down and headed for the girls ear. She was quick to react, though, lifting a hand to grasp the annoying insect as it attempted to enter into her body.
The moment her hand clasped over the bug she got a glimpse of a few things, the vision was quick, but she knew what she was seeing. First she spotted Isaac, hovering over Allison, they were kissing in what looked like Allison's bed. Then she saw Ethan and Danny, both of them were in the shower, making out as the other couple in the first vision had depicted. Finally, it switched to a vision of Eva and Aiden her lifted up in Aiden's arms, wrapped in nothing but a cream colored towel, they were kissing as well. When the two visions ended and her vision cleared, Eva scrunched up her face, opening her hand to reveal the dead fly.
"Perverted little bug." Eva said before using a piece of toilet paper to wipe the thing off from her hand. She then washed her hand off in the sink after tossing the toilet paper and the squished bug into the trash.
Upon wrapping the towel tighter around herself, the very one that she had spotted in her vision, but had happened to neglect to make the connection to, she slipped out of the bathroom and headed into her bedroom, only to nearly have a heart attack upon finding Aiden on the other side of the door.
"I know I said I wouldn't mind you dropping by unannounced earlier, but you have got to stop scaring me like this." Eva Said as she lifted a hand to clutch her chest, playing the over dramatic angle as she was already rather good at it.
Aiden's signature smirk appeared on his lips, but there was something just slightly off kilter about it as he swooped in closer to Eva to sweep her off from her feet.
"Alright, maybe I don't have any complaints." Eva countered her earlier statement quickly as her legs wrapped around him. She realized quickly how close to being entirely naked she was, and how far from it he was.
"Good." Aiden said before taking the initiative to make the two of them the same amount of nude as each other and then giving Eva just what she needed to end the beginning of her day in complete and total bliss.

It was later when Eva awoke, she hadn't even realized she had fallen asleep, but she realized that Aiden was no longer there and that she couldn't move her arms.
"What the hell?" She spoke aloud as she tried to move her hands, only to feel something pressing hard into her wrists. Chains, thick, yet still small enough to wrap around her slender wrists and hold them into place hindering her getting anywhere for the time being.
"What the hell!" She yelled this time as she yanked hard against her restraints, first getting no luck, but after a few more hard and fierce yanks, she managed to get her arms free, but breaking through the metal of the head board in the process. She was furious at that point, one stick poke away from losing her control entirely and turning into the wild beast that lived within her.
The only thing keeping her from entirely losing her cool was the fact that her phone was sitting on the bedside table and blinking alerting her that she had a message awaiting her. She grabbed the phone with her still chained together hands and looked at her missed calls. All from Allison.
Text messages followed.
Isaac has completely lost it. Heading to the school now. He's after the twins.
The message was only sent nearly ten minutes ago, but Eva knew what was going on. Her vision she had the other day depicting the twins, Isaac, and Derek all losing their cool and going after her, it was happening. Aiden had been a distraction to subdue her. Now she was mad. She growled low and loud before snapping the chains apart, loosening it enough to release her wrists.
Now to get dressed as quickly as possible and go kick the ass of her, more than likely, possessed boyfriend.

It only took her 15 minutes to dress and reach the school and yet the girl still looked like she had just walked off from the cover of a magazine. It was one of the perks of being a teen werewolf. It would have taken a bus running over the girl in order for her to look even slightly like a mess.
Eva appeared on the scene just in time, Allison was running into the School, just as Eva had been coming up to the front doors of the school.
"I swear, unless they've torn each other apart already I'm going to kill Aiden. I was chained to my bed when I woke up." Eva informed the other girl as she lifted a surviving length of the chain that she held in her hand. Her weapon of choice.
"Werewolves must think alike. Isaac cuffed me by my ankles to my bed." Eva, despite the circumstances, released a soft laugh at that and then ran into the school along with a crossbow wielding Allison.
"Assholes." Eva said before they followed the only noise in the school, it was coming from the guys locker room.
Upon arriving at it they found Isaac, staring down Kira, Allison was the first to act, whacking Isaac upon the back of the head with her bow and knocking him to the ground where both twins were currently lying. She could tell the moment that she heard the rumble of growling that they weren't at all themselves.
"Shit." She mumbled before backing both girls into the coaches office that lie behind them. She shoved the door closed before effortlessly shoving the coaches desk in front of the door.
All three boys were standing now, all entirely wolfed out. Isaac focused on the large glass pane around the door to the coaches office.
"Was that a good idea?" Kira asked who was currently wilding a sword.
"Probably not." Eva retorted.
The three girls watched as Ethan and Aiden ganged up on Isaac, throwing him into the lockers and then into the window that was in the door of the office, blowing it out entirely.
"They're not going to kill each other are they?" Kira asked.
"I think they're going to try." Allison replied.
"We're going to have to detain them. It's one boy to each of us, I think we can do this." Eva said as the three of them began to formulate a plan.
"You really think we can do that? They're all werewolves." Kira said.
"Yes and you're a sword wielding kitsune and Allison is a spot on archer with training in just what we're going to do." Eva replied.
"And you're a werewolf with some pretty bad ass MMA skills." Allison added and to which Eva couldn't help but present a smile in her direction.
"See, we can do this. You two go out that door, sneak around to the two entrances to the locker room, I'll go in this way and hold them off until you two come in." Eva said and the other two nodded. She jumped up onto the desk, watching as they rushed out of the room. She then turned to dive out of the window, catching the attention of the three wolves.
She whipped the length of chain upon the ground, the noise clattering around the room as she allowed herself to wolf out entirely.
When the three boys charged, she did her best to hold them off until the other two girls charged into the room and helped her try and beat the guys into submission while keeping them from killing each other.
Just as the boys had the girls all backed into a corner Eva thought that all hope was lost, but then the three boys dropped to the ground all of them leaking the black blood from their mouths as they hit the ground.
"Aiden!" Eva gasped before dropping to the ground beside the very guy she had earlier threatened to kill, checking frantically for a heart beat before looking over to Allison.
"Call Deaton, we need him here. Now!" She ordered to which Allison responded as she should have, as if the lives of the three boys before them depended on it.
