Filthy Livin'
Disclaimer: An idea I've had in mind for a long while now that was inspired by the old WCW group, Filthy Animals. Much like the Chimera Pack idea I did awhile back but different. In this idea, Scott and Melissa lived elsewhere before moving to Beacon Hills for a fresh start at the beginning of the second half of his Sophomore year and so that Melissa could get her son away from certain bad influences like Theo Raeken (with both boys being born Werewolves). As he and Scott run their own little crew of Werewolves and Humans who like to run wild and do whatever they want.
Summary: Its Senior year and an old friend from the past is attempting to bring back the filthy and wild animal that he knows his brother in all but blood, Scott McCall, can be.
"Come on, Scott, are you really and seriously telling me that you don't miss what you used to be? A wild and out of control Werewolf who did whatever the Hell he wanted, whenever he wanted with me and the others?" Asked one Theo Raeken with a doubtful expression on his face as he and his best friend and brother in all but blood stood outside of a building that Theo had brought them too.
Scott just stared at him and sighed with a smile on his face. "That's what I'm really and seriously tellin' you, bro. Things are different now. My mom and me are in a better place, the crew I run with now are some fairly cool guys, and as for Kira? That girl makes me wanna write poetry, man."
Theo snorted with an eyeroll and shoved his brother away a bit, causing him to laugh. "Jeez, do you hear yourself? This idyllic small ass crap hole has changed you into a little bitch!" Retorted the Brunette in disgust.
"I don't know about idyllic as this place attracts some seriously crazy crap to it, bro. And come on now, I'm still the biggest badass to ever badass while you're my bitch slash sidekick."
Crap he himself had gotten involved in thanks to the quite large Hale Pack that Talia Hale and Rebecca 'Harley' Harlowe ran together. Crap that once upon a time, he wouldn't have dared get caught up in except to maybe cause the problem to begin with. Well, maybe not anything deadly problematic anyway but whatever. But over time, he had found himself getting involved and changing for the better much to his mom's immense happiness. And it was all thanks to the more positive and less destructive influences he had gotten in his life since his mom had moved them to Beacon Hills, California and him having to live up to a promise his mom had made him give her. That of being a better son and generally being better in a lot of ways then how he used to be. Sure, he hated it as it wasn't something he felt was him but he could see how much it meant to his mother and so he started to try. Even if it was kind of half assed at times. But then he met the Hale and Ito Packs, along with the likes of Rebecca 'Harley' Harlowe, Stiles Stilinski, the Argents, the Yukimuras (whose daughter he found himself surprisingly falling for for that matter), and quite a few others.
Hell, he even tried out for Lacrosse just for the Hell of it. Well, that and because his mother, along with the Faculty Staff practically insisted on it. If only to help further ensure he didn't try and get up to any trouble. And he did play around here and there but he kept it to a minimum so it wouldn't attract attention. But gradually, the others (Kira especially), helped him change into someone better. Someone that you could be brung home to a girl's parents without the worry of potential embarrassment and the like. Though even with the new changes, he wasn't one to pass up a party. Especially any Lydia Martin through since those tended to especially get wild. And then comes Senior year and with it, his old friend and brother in all but blood and co-leader of the 'Filthy Animals' had shown up with a goal or two in mind. Said goals? To get Scott back into the crew and return to being the wild ass Theo knew was still there and was the real deal. His mom had been especially displeased with the fact Theo was around as he wasn't even supposed to know where Scott even was thanks to the former wild boy not being allowed to have any internet or phone access for a good long while.
But Theo had said it was a lucky break that he had even learned where his best friend was and left it at that. An explanation Scott was more then willing to accept since he knew hie could trust his best friend. "Yeah, I heard. What's even crazier is the fact I've heard you got your ass involved in being some bulls**t town protector nonsense. And you've definitely had too much of the Kool-Aid if you really believe you're the badass between us." Theo replied dryly as he shoved his laughing brother again.
"Don't knock it til you try it, they've got some GREAT Kool-Aid. And hey, I like helpin' out, bro. Not only does it help keep my mom alive, but it helps keep others alive. Kind of a good feelin' to have."
Plus, he loved seeing Kira be a total badass babe as it was a Helluva turn on to him. A fact he hadn't been shy about expressing aorund her and would often make her blush much to his liking as he thought her reaction was just damned adorable. He'd even made it his on going mission to boost her self esteem to some very high levels and the results had been highly favorable to the point she sometimes pulled the wool over his eyes. And in one case, that had been a literal thing and where she had gotten it he still didn't know as Kira was continuing to be cutely tight lipped about it. Theo just scoffed and shook his head before opening the door and gestured for him to go inside. "So what are we doing here exactly?" Wondered the former wild Wolf curiously as the two went inside.
"Its somethin' I thought would be perfect for us, bro."
"Let me guess, you also managed to ensure nobody would try anything too, right?" Asked Scott knowingly and getting a look from the other boy.
"Is that judgment I'm hearing?"
It was Scott's turn to roll his eyes. "Course not. I haven't become THAT much of a square."
"Uh-huh, denial's not just a river in Egypt you know." Came the disbelieving response.
Scott just grinned but he wasn't gonna say anything to anybody about this unless he had no choice. Loud music could be heard as they walked deeper into the building and he couldn't help but nod to it as it was some energetic stuff. Stuff he hadn't really listened too all that much since coming to Beacon Hills as part of the 'A Better Scott McCall Program'. The music only grew louder as they came to another door and Theo smirked at him before opening it. "After you, bro."
"Good to know you can still recognize my superior good looks to your old age." Scott told him cheekily and getting an eyeroll in return.
"Man, not only are you in denial, but you're still delusional! We both know I got more chicks then you did back home." Retorted the other boy with a smirk as Scott went through the door.
His brother just snorted. "Theo, I hate to tell you this, but that was just them pitying you cause they knew I was the real deal out of the two of us. The real… Slim Shady you could say."
"HAH! And I'm Jay-Z."
Chuckles came from Scott as he felt glad once again for the fact he and Theo still had such an awesome rapport with one another. His eyes widened however once he and Theo got to a room where the music was coming from. As it contained a number of people that he hadn't seen in several years. "Holy s**t!" Gasped out the young Wolf in surprise.
As in the room was his old girlfriend, Erica Reyes, Josh Diaz, Gabe and Nolan, a pair of half brothers who turned their backs on their Hunting family to join the McKen Pack, an Asian Werewolf named Jiang who loved using Machetes, Tracey Stewart, who'd had the misfortune to be a Kanima at one point until she got saved from it, Kincaid, who also has ties to the Yakuza in one way or another, Kanela, a former Fae/Elfling who'd been born into Royalty until doing something her parents didn't agree with and turned her into a human teenager, Corrine The Desert Wolf, Tierney, a friend of Jiang's who had chosen to follow her friend instead of staying with the Pack she and Jiang had once been part of. And last but not least, a pair known as Garrett and Violet, otherwise internationally known as the Orphans. A pair of teen assassins who had ended up joining them. They, like Corrine, helped fund the McKen Pack. "Well, well, if it isn't one of the biggest troublemakers I've ever had the pleasure of knowing." Greeted Kincaid with a grin as Erica let out an excited squeal and pounced on Scott.
The others watching in amusement as the reunion happened. "Whoa, easy there, Erica, I'm with someone now." Gently chided Scott.
Gaining a frown from the Blonde in return. "But that never mattered to you before, babe. Especially since I was about the only girl you were serious with and even then that was kind of spotty."
"Yeah, but that was then and this is now. Things have changed." He told her with a slight wince over the reminder of the player he'd once been.
Unseen, Theo rolled his eyes but kept quiet as Scott pulled away from an unhappy Erica and greeted the others. All of whom were happy to see him as it'd been too damned long. "You know there's been some rumblings where you're concerned, right? Especially since you joined up with the Hale Pack?" Violet asked of him with a concerned look on her face after hugging him.
"I kinda figured. Nothin' too serious though, right?"
"No, not yet. But its only a matter of time, bro."
Scott sighed but was thankful for the warning. "Right, thanks, Vi. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for anything."
"With us here, we've got your six covered, Scott." Gabe told him seriously and getting a nod of agreement from Nolan.
Instead of arguing against that as Erica stayed near him as she plotted out how to get him back from the slut who stole him from her, he nodded at the two in appreciation. Josh could be seen with a smirk on his face as he changed out the music for something Scott hadn't heard in years. "Enjoy, bro."
Scott froze momentarily as the sounds of their theme song so to speak, one they got from the old wrestling group known as the 'Filthy Animals' for that matter, began to play from the radio. Shaking himself out of it, he stepped up to it as the others watched on. Hoping that it might bring back the guy they knew instead of the one they had been hearing about for some time now. "Embrace the Animal that's still in you, baby. I know you have to be tired of playing the role of a good little boy." Purred Erica in his ear as she rubbed on his chest as his eyes closed with the music washing over him.
The McKen Pack watched on with baited breath as their long lost but hopefully returned brother let the music wash over him. A deep breath was had and released as Scott opened his eyes, eyes that glowed gold as he turned around with a smirk and a vibe radiating from him that hadn't been there before. "Who wants to go f**k s**t up?"
Cheers rang loudly in the room as Erica smiled happily and tried to kiss him and failed as he pulled away to join the others in celebrating. Said celebrating soon went out the door as they all left to go have some wild and out of control fun. Leaving her on her own for a moment. One thing at a time I guess.
But Erica was confident she'd have HER man back with her by the end of the night.
