The Come Back

Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here. Been a little something I've been thinking about recently and Eminem's 'Not Afraid' helped it along. Takes place 15 years later after season 4 and ignores Dread Doctors, Stalia break ups, Kira leaving, and Wild Hunt/Nazi Alpha. Also, certain characters aren't dead and Victoria never got Bitten. And if you haven't yet, check out my latest poll and vote!

Summary: Scott McCall's a huge mess after his wife up and leaves him. Prompting his long time best friend Stiles Stilinski to do something about it.


"How is he?" Asked Malia Tate-Stilinski as soon as she saw her husband of many a year come in the house.

Stiles hung his head for a moment with a sigh. "Not good, 'Lia, not good."

"Always knew Ilene wasn't any good for him." Snarled Malia angrily.

Ilene Turner-McCall, wife of Scott McCall and something of a lowkey manipulative bitch who had cruelly turned Scott's life upside down more then what it already was about three months ago by leaving him. Claiming that she had found a much better man then him that she didn't mind having babies by since at least they wouldn't be freaks of nature. Scott and Ilene had met during Scott's Junior year of College after an unfortunate break up between him and Kira due to long distance issues. Though those like Allison, Malia, Lydia, and Cora long thought Ilene had something to do with it but could never get proof. As it was known the girl wanted Scott for herself as she found him to be quite hot and thought he would go well for her future movie starlet image. A future she was more than willing to obtain by any means necessary behind Scott's back for that matter. It hadn't taken her long to get her hooks into Scott after the break up either and no one was prepared for what would happen after that either. As Ilene would manipulate things to where Scott would strongly believe his mother and everyone else was against the relationship.

Refusing to believe anything they said due to the strong hold she had on him despite the fact his Wolf Senses should have made him see the truth. Deucalion at one point had made the remark that she was more diabolical then anybody they had ever encountered and had the theory Gerard was somehow behind it. Something the old man would always heavily deny until his death as his body could no longer handle the dark fluid he kept producing from his body. As time went on, Scott wouldn't even care about his health as much, getting fattened up by his 'loving' girlfriend turned wife. His self esteem pretty much gone as she would be an absolute bitch to him with her cruel comments and the like from time to time in order to keep him under her thumb. Which had definitely caused war to erupt between her and Melissa and war between Ilene and Kira since despite the years, hadn't given up on Scott. Nobody had even known the two had split until they saw the hateful woman walking about town with some high class douche bag and Braeden had happily slugged both in the jaw after she learned of went what down and then told the others of the development.

It had been difficult getting Scott to talk with them. But eventually they all managed to get through to him, of course this had the unintended side effect of him having some self loathing for his stupidity in believing anything Ilene had told him. Not to mention gaining an additional hundred pounds in a matter of days much to Melissa and Kira's horror. Prompting Chris to make the remark that if a Hunter or anyone else wanted, that they could easily kill him. Scott would just shrug in response, not really caring one way or another. Stiles just sighed and hugged his wife once he sat down next to her. "Yeah… We really shoulda done somethin' a lot sooner then this." Murmured the Deputy unhappily.

Malia laid her head against him. "True, but we can do something now, babe. We can do something now."

Especially before he ate himself to death. Stiles would think long into the night about what to do until he got a good idea of what to do. Though it would take a lot of hard work but he thought it would definitely pay off in the end for his best friend that he thankfully had back in his life finally.

The Next Day

Once Stiles was inside Scott's house since he had sneakily made himself a key, he made his way into the living room through all the clutter that littered the floor. A big sign that the place was in strong need of a good cleaning or two for that matter. Not to mention a lot of air freshener too. Scott himself was sitting on the couch watching some tv show while eating a bucket of Ice Cream and probably looking to reach a new goal in weight since he was already 400 pounds. A plate of KFC laid nearby, ready to be eaten by him as Stiles plopped down next to him with a sigh. "Dude, we need to talk."

"Abouwha?" Mumbled back Scott with his mouth full as he turned his head towards him.

Ice Cream trailing down his jaw and making the Deputy wince at the sight. "About this, this downward spiral you got goin' on man."

"Dun know wha 'alkin' 'bout."

Stiles let out a breath and then took away the Ice Cream from his best friend and chucked it. He then did the same with the KFC in case Scott tried to go for it. "HEY! THAT'S MY FOOD DAMNIT!"

He did not want to have to get out of the house again damnit! Them taxis cost money! And he was pretty damned sure they were all against him anyway. Stiles fixed him with a glare. "It WAS your food. Now its trash like everything else on the floor in here."

"That's not cool man. Not cool at all." Moaned Scott in despair.

"No, what's not cool is you lettin' that bitch still have a hold on you."

"I-Ilene don't have no hold on me!" Protested the Alpha.

But Stiles fixed him with a look that said he didn't buy that for a second. One that made Scott fold like a deck of cards with a heavy sigh. "Oh, you're right… She still has a horrible hold on me and I hate it but I don't know what to do!" Moaned out the terribly out of shape Alpha.

Not like he could just go and ask forgiveness from everybody, most especially his momma and Kira. Who was still a vision of beauty who for whatever reason he couldn't fathom still loved him as she had tried to move on from him but never could. "Dude, of course you do. You're just not realizin' it. Get out there and get back in shape. Reclaim all that she took from you! You're the Alpha, remember!?"

"You… You really think I can do all that? Be the Alpha again?"

"Damn straight I do! If it wasn't for that savin' people thing that's so attractive, we'd all be dead by now! You knew how to listen to others and implement it into your own ideas when it came to threats. I mean, you're one of the reasons things are cool between Wolves and Argents everywhere! Hell, I'm married to a babe thanks in part to you! One I love a Hell of a lot!" Proclaimed Stiles as he stood up and spread his arms wide.

Forcing Scott to look up at him and think for a few moments. "You know what? You're right."

"Damn right I'm right! So does this mean you're gonna get back out there and get in shape? Reclaim all she took?"

"YEAH! I AM GONNA DO THAT! AND I'LL SHOW THAT BITCH THAT SHE DID NOT DESTROY ME!"

"YEAH!"

Scott struggled to get up but thanks to Stiles, he was able to do so. "Let's do it!" Yelled the rejuvenated Wolf.

Causing his best friend to cheer loudly. "But wait..."

"Yeah bro?"

"Can we get some KFC first? I really wanted to eat that Chicken man."

Stiles nearly fell over at that. "NO!"

"Aww damn."

"Reclaimin' now, KFC later."

A nod and a small groan came from Scott and soon the two were off to do exactly that. Granted, Scott had nearly ended up in the hospital after they left the house but over time he would slowly reclaim all he lost and ask forgiveness from those he loves and getting it much to his relief. Earning back respect from certain folks in the community both normal and not so normal as he worked to get his life back on track, which included the revitalization of his relationship with Kira much to her's and everyone else's immense happiness. Allison would even have a hand in helping him get back in shape thanks to a specialized course she set up for him with help from her parents. He never would get any KFC though but he didn't mind that one bit since he was back in good shape once again with everything including his self esteem restored. Along with a vow to never ever allow anyone to do that kind of thing to him again. Not that Kira planned on doing anything like that at all of course as she wasn't a cruel person like that. Many would be witness to his joyful cheering as he jumped from rooftop to rooftop and ran as fast as possible through the streets of Beacon Hills.

Even going onto a cliff he once used to Howl from to get Derek's location and let loose with the loudest Howl he'd ever done to signify his return. "I'M BACK AND HERE TO STAY!" Yelled Scott happily and a smiling Kira would come up behind him and hug him.

Prompting him to turn around and kiss her deeply much to her happiness. And with a little prompting from Cora, Malia, his mother, and Stiles, Scott would write a tell all book about Ilene. One that would nicely enough ruin her image in Hollywood much to her immense ire and try and get back at him. Not that it would work thanks to him being more on the ball where she was concerned and the McCall Pack being even more fully unified against her this time around. Gaining her quite the ass kicking too!


Author's Notes: I might expand more on this in a fic one day to show his progress of getting back into shape if there's interest. R and R!
