Here's the next chapter, a little faster than the last one, re-watching Season 6 of Teen Wolf reminded me of this story and gave me a push back in it's direction, can't believe I've been working on this one fic for over a year and a half! Thanks to any that have stuck around this long and hello to any that are just starting at. But enough of me, the song is "Run" by: Snow Patrol. Please read, enjoy, and review!

Chapter 27: "Run"

"Light up, light up

As if you have a choice

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder

And we'll run for our lives

I can hardly speak I understand"

By the time that they had relayed all of the events of the day to Argent it was dusky outside with the sky turning a deep purple that matched the bruise pallor of Kate's face. Allison watched as Isaac unconsciously shivered at the memory and she reached out a hand gently and placed it on his shoulder and gave him a reassuring squeeze. "I have never encountered any creature with neon green eyes or purple skin, perhaps Deaton will know?" Argent ventured with his brows furrowed and his mouth in a worried line, it was the first thing that he had said throughout the telling and Allison knew what he meant by it. "You mean we go to Deaton, you go to Gerard." Isaac frowned in confusion while Argent's expression softened and he sighed. "He knows her better than anyone else, it's not my first choice but it's inevitable." He paused and took a deep breath before continuing, "Besides I don't want him to know how powerful you have become, he'd judge you wrong."

That warmed Allison's heart, she had never questioned aloud whether her father was okay with having a supernatural daughter given their roots but she was glad to hear that he was proud of her aloud. He also did have a point, Gerard would not tell her anything, Isaac either, their supernatural kind had disabled him and he would never trust them again. Just adding to the list of people that they could no longer fully trust with the second to the top of that list being… "Where's Scott right now?" If Kate was going to go after anyone, it would be him of course and Isaac cringed at the thought that he hadn't come up with that first. "Kate would go after him first, especially now that she knows he's an alpha." Turning towards him, Isaac frowned at being assumed to be Scott's keeper but his sense for the alpha was automatically better than Allison's given that she wasn't a wolf like him. Grumbling he thought about it for a long moment and remembered the conversation that he and Allison had been having before Kate had interrupted them. "The lacrosse party!"

Isaac was already grabbing his jacket to sprint out the door when Allison's hand stopped him telling him to wait. "It doesn't start for another half an hour, we don't want to run in there blind and get caught in the web too." Argent nodded with his daughter and placed a reassuring hand on his gun belt with a sad smile. "Slight change of plans then, I'll go to the bonfire and you try Deaton, we'll leave Gerard for another day." Allison nodded her agreement, would save civilians knowing too, and grabbed Isaac's hand to pull him back towards the car. "No car, too slow, let's run." He begged, and she nodded giving a slight wave to her father before the two flashed off. Their steps were light enough that even his keen hunter's ears couldn't hear their boots hit the carpeted floor only the door as it opened and closed behind them. He smiled lightly, this wasn't how he expected his daughter to be when she grew up to lead their family but it was what she was and he couldn't be prouder. Strapping on an extra attachment to his gun belt of extra shells, he frowned at his colt 45s trying to decide if they were strong enough before shrugging once again, they had to be just like he and his new family had to be.

As Argent mulled over this in his head, Allison breezed along through the woods next to Isaac feeling incredibly alive; running like this always made her feel this way. She smiled over at Isaac and he grinned back his eyes bright and alive too as he reached out mid-stride and grabbed her hand as their feet ghosted over pine needles and ignored the tree roots with perfectly timed leaps and ducks under low branches. The trauma was momentarily forgotten and they just ran the way their bodies had been meant to. In true to wolf form, Isaac howled with joy at the feel of such freedom running through his muscles and veins and Allison gave a cry herself. As always, the run felt like it ended too soon as the two stood there in front of Deaton's office as the man was locking up and he turned around as if unsurprised to see them, not like the man had been all that surprised by much over the years given his experiences come to think of it.

"What supernatural epidemic has taken over the town this time?" He asked looking surprisingly unamused by their comically windblown looks and still glowing eyes. "Has Scott not talked to you yet?" Deaton shook his head nodding at his still wrapped up arm and shrugged, "Not since young Derek did this. Doesn't want me involved probably." Isaac looked angered by that but Allison's light touch calmed him quickly as she filled him in about Liam, the hit list, Kate and the berserkers. "I wish that he'd told me about Liam, he'll need guidance with him." Allison chuckled and Isaac added that he had taken Liam under his wing, as unorthodox as it was, but they were working through it.

"So you're only question for me is what Kate is?" The veterinarian confirmed from where he was now sitting comfortably on the hood of his car and the two supernaturals stood unexhausted in front of him despite their long run and long period of time standing. Deaton's chuckle following his question surprised them both greatly, "How do you not know? She was bitten by a werewolf." Allison cocked an eyebrow skeptically at that one and gave Deaton a frowning expression. "She didn't look like a werewolf." Isaac looked significantly less confused by this and frowned instead in concentration as he mused, "Jackson was bit by a werewolf too and his body was impure so he became a kanima." Deaton nodded and rolled two of his fingers around in a continue on, don't slow down sort of impatient yet knowing gesture. "So her current form doesn't matter, she most definitely cannot control it which we already knew from earlier." As Isaac finished, Allison caught on much faster in this case than Isaac did and it made Deaton grin like a proud teacher when she added, "She can't be running the show if she can't control herself!"

Deaton nodded and grinned as he hopped off the hood of his truck and opened the passenger door and gestured towards it, "Ready for a bonfire? I wouldn't mind a beer." The two teens looked at each other and shrugged before hopping in the car, "Hopefully your father has everything cleared out already." He added cheerfully as he shut the door behind her and opened the door to the driver's side as Isaac leapt in the trunk bed with a sigh of relief, he really hated car backseats. When he knocked at the window, Deaton opened it and Isaac grinned at the two in the cab as Deaton put the vehicle in drive and he balanced with ease as the vet sped towards the high school. The ride passed uneventfully and before long they had arrived at the high school in the dark as they watched a bunch of lacrosse players and drunk kids stagger off into the darkness many yelling about some kid ruining the party by pulling the plug on the music and some crazy guy holding the DJ at gun point.

Hopping out the back of the truck bed at the sight of this, Isaac started running towards the stage with his eyes flashing to gold as Deaton threw the car in park and Allison flung open the door as she followed him with her own eyes glowing orange and a ring dagger in both hands. "Glad I'm not a hunter, too much exercise." The vet managed as he turned off the car, leaned over and closed Allison's door, opened his and subsequently closed it before locking the truck as he walked at his own pace in the footsteps of the huang and werewolf. Those two were there in a flash as they leapt on to the scene and stopped short of running over a still writhing on the ground Liam, Malia and Scott as a scared looking DJ ran off screaming from where a very scared looking freshman boy was holding a plug and looking up at Chris Argent re-holstering his gun. At that Allison slowed to a walk and slipped the ring daggers back in her pocket as her eyes flashed back to brown and Isaac skidded to a stop tripping ungracefully over Liam's leg causing both to yelp in pain as Isaac joined Liam on the ground. Malia growled at him and scooted further away looking around for Stiles and frowning when she realized that he was not there after all.

"You taught him that one?" Scott's response was wheezed out in pain from the after-effects of some attack that the two wolves and one were-coyote lying on the ground must have experienced. Argent shrugged at the Alpha, "That was one of yours or Derek's tricks." Isaac's eyes flashed gold at that as he bounced up to his feet with a glare at his Alpha. Turning to the boy still holding the cord, Allison smiled lightly at him as she started to make fire dance across her knuckles in her hypnotic way. "Easy kid, easy." Liam popped up from where he lay on the floor still slightly wheezing as he interrupted her earning a glare from the huang, "His name is Mason." Controlling the urge to roll his eyes, Isaac watched as Allison corrected herself with a deep breath and continued what she was doing, "Easy, Mason, easy. You won't remember this once you've walked off of campus property, none of this." The teen nodded his head yet still looked worried as he glanced over despite his trance and locked eyes on Liam. "He'll be okay right? He's my best friend, pretty much the only friend I have." She nodded as Liam grinned crookedly at that before nodding which was all the reassurance that the boy needed as he nodded at Allison and she continued with a small smile of her own, "Go home, Mason. Rest up so that you and he can talk about this crazy lacrosse party that ended when the power cut off. Okay?"

With that the skinny freshman nodded and walked off with stiff steps and a smile on his face. While Isaac waggled his eyebrows pointedly at Liam causing the boy to blush, Argent jumped down from the stage with surprisingly limber knees given his age and walked over to Allison with a slight frown. "I thought I told you to find Deaton." At that the veterinarian waved his free, still bandaged, hand, the other too busy having found a can of beer, and added with a cheerful look at Scott, "Present and accounted for." The true Alpha frowned at him and Deaton grinned back as oblivious as could possibly be sipping at his beer. "And she's definitely still here, what she is I cannot say for sure but she's not in control, similar to Jackson when he was a kanima." Scott sat there looking confused, as did Liam and Malia who blurted out, "Who's Jackson?" Ignoring her question, Argent gulped as Allison looked at him judging his reaction. "So she's trained to kill supernaturals and has a hit list with everyone's names on it? Can this get any worse?" Deaton took one final sip and tossed his beer into the trash can before looking at Scott as he added, "Of course it will, it's Beacon Hills."
