Sheriff McCall
Disclaimer: As always, I own nothing but what you see here! I'm also open to any ideas (within reason that I am liable to say no to any for whatever reason) y'all might want to see put here as well. This is set early season 2 with some changes in place and been something I've had knocking around in my head for awhile now.
Summary: Scott unexpectedly finds himself in a new position after the town's Law Enforcement is put out of action!
It happened so unexpectedly that everyone was shocked as can be. Not to mention a bit panicked for that matter as well! As every member of Law Enforcement had ended up in the hospital following a strange outbreak that seemed to target them only. Though thankfully, it wasn't killing any of them and the town residents weren't sure of what to do as nothing like this had ever happened before. And had met up at City Hall to discuss what they should do before things got out of hand. Scott had ended up attending only because his mom couldn't on account of work and had asked him to let her know how thigns went. Which is how he'd end up in a unique situation thanks to her and his own mouth! Even Derek and his bunch were there too for that matter. The yelling and panic was starting to get out of hand the longer the meeting went on to the point Scott had ended up letting out a roar to get everyone to quiet down and look his way. "Look, I get that a lot of you are worried about safety and that help is likely slow in coming cause of how unusual this whole thing is. But we have to keep a cool head about it all! Or we risk causing more problems then we need!" Reasoned the young man as he made his way through the crowd and looking at various people as he got to the podium where the Mayor and his people were.
Though he was making an effort to not look in any of the Argents' direction considering the issues he had with them ever since Chris Argent put a gun to his face and threatened to kill him if he didn't stay away from Allison. A threat he wasn't willing to try his luck on much to Allison's dislike for that matter. "The fact of the matter is… We don't know who put our Police Force in the hospital and we don't know if they'll do anything else. And for all we know, they probably want chaos to happen for their own reasons. And we can't let that happen! We have to be better then that!"
Murmuring began to happen through out the crowd. "Mmm… Impressive." Muttered Erica with a purr as she licked her lips while Boyd shook his head in amusement.
"HE'S RIGHT! WE GOTTA BE BETTER THEN THAT!" Shouted out old Mr. Johnson.
"I NOMINATE THIS YOUNG MAN FOR ACTING SHERIFF!" Called out Mrs. Whittaker.
Causing Scott to look at her in shock while Derek's Pack started to laugh at the unexpected turn of events! "Well, he is plenty responsible." Derek muttered to mostly himself.
And then wondering why the Hell he was even giving the idea serious consideration! Many more came to agree over the decision to place Scott as the Sheriff until Stilinski recovered. As they felt Scott could do a good job and would even choose some good Deputies to help him out. Scott himself tried to fight this but none of them were listening! Things would really get wild when Jackson himself showed up with a briefcase and a damned good looking suit on him and having a smugness about him. And Lydia couldn't help but find him to be absolutely yummy despite their break up. "Sorry I'm late everyone. Had to get a few things in order before I could get here since my dad's got whatever the Cops have."
The surprising thing was, his dad was the only Lawyer to get that sickness too! "Oh my, please tell me our town's Laywers don't have whatever our Law Enforcement members have!" Moaned the Mayor pitifully.
"No sir, Mr. Mayor. Just him oddly enough. But I have some documents in my briefcase that could help solidify Mr. McCall's position as Sheriff of Beacon Hills."
"Dude!"
As no way was Jackson seriously going along with this! As it was just nuts! Jackson turned to Derek. "This is why I haven't been all for Pack and all for one and all that with you and the other three. You giving me what I wanted helped unlock even more of a desire in me when it comes to this kind of thing."
"And prevent me from doing what needs to be done." Grumbled Gerard petutently and getting an elbow in the side from Victoria.
Who'd been escorted to Chris, Gerard, and their men by Jackson himself to where a lone Omega had been caught and nearly executed but wasn't thanks to Jackson's intervention. Helpfully reminding the man that he had no say in making big decisions like doing away with the Code and waging war with all Werewolves as that was the right of the true leader of the family to make. Not him. And since Victoria had no desire to pull a Hilter, told the old man it wasn't happening and to never go behind her back again or she would do something permanent to him. "You could have told me about this."
Jackson just shrugged at his Alpha. "Sorry, hadn't even occurred to me." And he meant that too.
"Dude, there's no way you can seriously be for this. You too Mr. Mayor!" Hissed a somewhat panicked Scott.
"Well..."
"Sorry to interrupt Mr. Mayor, but McCall? I am seriously for this." Began Jackson as he pulled out a document from his briefcase.
"According to an old town law made by Thaddeus Hale during his time as Mayor, anyone who speaks the most common sense and actually cares enough about the well being of others to the point it puts their own life at risk, can be eligible for the role of Sheriff in the event the current Sheriff is unable to carry out his or her duties. And in my view, you fit this more then anybody else I know, McCall."
"Mom always thought Grandpa was a little weird and now I think I see why." Muttered Derek and getting snorts of amusement from Isaac, Erica, and Boyd.
"An additional attachment states that no Argent is to ever be allowed into Law Enforcement. No matter how sane or kind they may be in order to prevent influence from other members of the Argent family for their own gain within Beacon Hills' Law Enforcement members. Nor are the Argents allowed to make sales to the Sheriff's Department and greater Beacon Hills area Police Department."
Gerard was pissed as Hell after that and even Chris felt annoyed by it but the father of one thought it made sense. "I never did like that old bastard." Grumbled Gerard with malice in his voice.
"Feeling was mutual from what I heard!" Threw in Derek helpfully.
Knowing it would get under the old man's skin and grinning at the fuming look he got from the old timer. "Think we could be Deputies?" Asked Isaac curiously.
"That'd be up to Scott."
"Considerin' what went down with you and Erica and him, he probably wouldn't be all that willin'."
"I'm sure I could… Persuade him." Purred Erica with a smirk on her face with her arms crossed under her breasts and ignoring the glare she was getting from a nearby Allison.
"I… But… I'm not… I'm just..." Tried Scott but was unable to form a whole sentence!
"Well… All in favor of young Scott McCall being our fair town's Sheriff until Stilinski gets better or outside help comes?"
"AYE!" Came the unified shout of everyone minus the Argents aside from Allison.
The Mayor smiled and then turned to a shocked Scott. "Congratulations my boy! We'll go over what needs to be done after the meeting is over with."
"Umm… Sure?"
Jackson smirked in victory before putting that document away and bringing out another one. "Thanks to a little co-operation my dad was able to get with a few people. We were able to obtain some medical information related to one Gerard Argent. Medical information that I for one makes me think that Mr. Argent needs to be placed in a medical care center for not only his safety, but for the safety of others. As its already been shown that with his current condition, he's liable to do anything no matter who it hurts in the process to achieve his goals."
"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO THAT INFORMATION!" Yelled Gerard angrily and then slumped to the ground, out cold thanks to Allison.
Who got surprised looks from everyone. "What? He's creepy, wants a bunch of people dead just because their different, and completely deserves what just happened."
Mutterings were heard after that while her parents just sighed and decided to leave it be. "Right. Put the man somewhere out of the way and he can be dealt with later." Decided the Mayor.
He never did like that old bastard anyway! The rest of the meeting went on in a bit less of a hectic manner while Scott stood where he was in complete shock much to the amusement of those who knew him. And once he was sworn in and even slapped on the back side of the head by Erica to snap him out of it. He quickly got to work by reading up all he could that would be helpful in his new position and even Deputized a few people he thought wouldn't misuse the position. Like Harley, Danny, Boyd, Derek much to his vast pleasure, Erica so long as she promised to not abuse it, Isaac, while at the same time freeing him up from his legal issues following his dad's murder. He'd also be sure to Deputize a few adults as well. One of those being another Alpha that was in the area known as Satomi Ito. Jackson would declare himself as the legal liaison between the Sheriff's Department and the Mayor's office in order to help out some.
It wouldn't be until past midnight that Scott would get home after another provision was made that himself and those who were still in school would be exempt from their studies until this whole thing was over with. Thusly, allowing them to avoid any academic problems. His getting home late would seriously displease his mother for that fact! "Scott! Where have you been!? And why are you in that uniform!?"
"Umm… Well… I kinda… Got elected as the acting Sheriff until Stiles' dad gets better?"
"YOU WHAT!?"
Author's Notes: This could definitely be a fun idea to explore in a full on fic one day. And if anyone wants to give it a go, feel free! Just let me know you're doing it! R and R!
