Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here!
Summary: Its been several days since Nyssa returned to Beacon Hills for the first time in years.
Several days had passed since Nyssa Al Ghul had finally returned to Beacon Hills for the first time in years. Though while her husband had been greatly ecstatic to have her return, her son had not been as much. Whether or not it was cause of personal feelings, or whatever he was having to deal with along with his friends, Nyssa wasn't sure of. Her husband was greatly relieved to know he wouldn't have to worry about her father anymore as well since he had been the cause of her having to leave to begin with so long ago. One thing about Kameel and his friends however that was plain to see for the former Assassin, was the fact that they seemed like they all had more experience with life then what they should. Some even having power about them as well in her view and was greatly curious about all of it but Jameson so far had been tight lipped about things. Making her unsure if its cause he didn't trust her or didn't think she wuold believe him. And so, she had taken to discretely following her son and his friends when she could.
Even resorting to requesting the aide of Talibah and several others who had followed her there since they had been her most loyal and unfortunately had no where else to go in life. And currently, she was listening in on her son and his friends discuss a plan to break into the institution known as Eichen House in order to rescue a friend of their's from some sort of threat. Though it was a noble thing on their part, the fact that they were all kids, untrained ones at that, would surely see their defeat should Eichen have security forces within its halls. She made herself known after her son had tried to get his Beloved to show faith in young Kira's abilities. "Though noble your intentions are, defeat is still a great possibility." Declared the woman as she stepped forward from her hiding spot.
And causing the group to jump in alarm over it! Kameel's Beloved's eyes began to glow blue as she bared fangs and growled at her with her arms spread as if attempting to protect the others. "You pose no threat to me, just as I pose no threat to you, Wolf."
"Coyote, actually. And trust me, I pose more of a threat then you think."
"Then come at me if you wish."
"Malia!" Shouted Stiles in alarm as she rushed his mother, only for him and the others to watch as said mother flipped Malia over and on to her back in one fluid motion and gripped her arm hard.
Leaving everyone quite shocked as Malia moaned a bit from the sudden pain. "Never assume one is weaker then yourself. For doing so could get you killed. Understand?"
"Y-yeah! Just let me go already!" Growled out the girl in frustration.
Nyssa did so much to Malia's relief, though she quickly launched into another attack that saw her on her back again. "I could do this with you all day qalil qayyut. Though preferably outside as I would not wish to ruin Melissa's furniture."
"Yeah, my mom would definitely like it for it to not be ruined." Broke in Scott with a glare towards the woman.
"What's a 'qalil' whatever?" Asked Liam curiously.
"It means 'Little Coyote' in English."
"Oh, cool."
"Good to know you know other languages, I'm sure that came in real handy after running away from us." Said Stiles spitefully.
"Considering my Arabic heritage, Kameel, I should know it well enough by now. And I did NOT run away. I was forced to leave thanks to my father threatening your's and your father's lives if I did not return with him. Know your facts before running your tongue." Replied Nyssa coldly and making her son flinch at the icyness of it!
She then let go of Malia who got up and rubbed at her arm gingerly as both Stiles and Kira came over to her in concern. "Take your Beloved outside and do not return until the two of you have gotten your troubles out of the way as your father and I are both in agreement that you need to 'man up' so to speak and get back on good terms with her. Though hot headed, I approve of this one, my son."
Muttering to himself with a sigh as he knew his mom was right, Stiles did what he was told and Malia was secretly glad for it as she was tired of how things were between her and Stiles. The fact she finally knew his actual name was pretty nice too in her view! Once the two were outside, Nyssa turned her attention towards those remaining. "How do you know about Werewolves?" Questioned Scott suspiciously.
"When your father is a centuries old leader of an organization, you tend to learn things."
"Was he a Kitsune?"
"No, he just knew of ways to prolong his life."
"Oh."
"But there has been the occasional Kitsune within the ranks. Or when there was ranks."
"Would you know how to help one with control issues then?" Wondered Kira curiously.
Nyssa nodded. "Yes, though it would not be an easy task to do the training."
"It wouldn't require me to be forced to stay with Skinwalkers would it?"
"Of course not! Though were the League of Assassins still functional, you would be required to give up all you knew in order to receive the training."
"LEAGUE OF ASSASSINS!?"
"Yes, that is what I said, no need for shouting. But as I said, it is no longer functional."
"And why should I believe that?" Questioned Scott suspicious and guarded.
Looking at him before answering, she regarded him for a moment. "Because, young Wolf, after I gained control of the League as was my birthright, though one I never truly wanted despite how I was acting at the time, I quickly disbanded it shortly afterwards as I wanted to be with my son and husband once more."
Scott then looked surprised as she had been telling the truth! Though, considering Theo had been lying while his heart never even did anything was something to be conscious of. "But as I was saying, you need more then just yourselves for such an undertaking as you are all planning. You need those who will not be hindered by whatever defenses Eichen has against your kind."
A sigh came from Scott in defeat, knowing his best friend's recently returned mother was right. "Look, I get it, you have a point, I'll speak with Argent and Braeden and see if they can join in."
"I am most happy to see you are using your mind, young Wolf. Always make an effort to do so and I am sure it will help you in many ways. I too will bring in aide to your cause. How soon do you need them to be prepared?"
"By 7:30."
Nyssa nodded and Scott went off to make a few phone calls. "I would suggest the two of you take heed of the advice I have given to him as well." She said to Liam and Kira.
Both of whom nodded. Malia and Stiles soon returned, both looking quite happy with themselves and holding the other's hands and Nyssa gave a nod to the sight of the whole thing. "I am pleased to see this, young ones. Now, if you will excuse me, I must go and prepare myself for the events to come this night."
"Wait, what!? What do you mean by that!?" Asked Stiles in surprise as she walked past him and his re-united girlfriend.
His mother offered no answer, making the young man follow her in an attempt to get an answer while Malia and Kira took off for a bit of Kitsune power training. With Chris, Braeden, Nyssa, and several of her loyalists that included Talibah, the mission to rescue Lydia from Eichen went damned well. Mason got to watch an awesome show involving a wall being taken care of thanks to Chris and some methods he knew of. Making the boy want to learn from him! Hayden was kinda glad but also somewhat bummed about the fact she wasn't able to make use of her powers to jump the wall but hoped there would be another chance to do so in the future. Throwing knives would be real handy where Valack was concerned when he tried to take off with Lydia and one of the Loyalists would even take off Theo's head much to Stiles' shock. Though he couldn't say he was too broken up about the guy ending up headless. Nyssa would even helpfully knock out Tracy when she tried to make a play for Lydia.
Thus allowing the group, plus Parrish as he also had been a huge help in the whole thing, to grab her, Josh, and Corey and bring them back with the group after leaving Eichen with a fairly freaked out Natalie Martin in tow. The Dread Doctors would not be happy about what happened with Theo when they found out about him being dead a few days later and one of them would end up dead for their attempt to go after Nyssa and her Loyalists in retaliation for having killed their experiment. Albeit, one that had failed but one they had learned quite a bit from. Nyssa would also hand Tracy her ass several times until the girl stopped being difficult and was even taken under the woman's wing and couldn't help but be amused when the woman told Stiles to basically think of Tracy as a new sister and his shocked expression to the whole thing. Lydia would also be rather surprised by the fact that Stiles' mom was around and even felt a little intimidated by the woman's sheer presence.
The fact she was helping Kira out with her control issues a great deal made the Redhead something of a fan however. It didn't hurt that Nyssa also refused to put up with Stiles' usual antics either.
Author's Notes: It didn't really occur to me until now when I was finishing the final part of this that Chris and Braeden definitely could have gotten involved in the task of helping save Lydia from Eichen. I think things mighta gone a teensy bit smoother had they been involved. Hope you guys enjoyed and who knows, maybe there'll be a 4th part down the line.
