Teen Eagle
|Argent house|
"I saw the lights flicker" Chris says seeing Gerard and Allison talking in her room.
"Probably one of our guests getting comfortable downstairs." Gerard replies.
"Get some sleep if you can, I have a feeling the next 24 hours are going to be eventful." Gerard tells Allison on his way out of her room.
"Your gonna tell me what happened at school?" Chris asks his father, stopping him in the door.
"Didn't you hear? We won." Gerard says, going past his son.
"Need something?" Allison asks her father, seeing him hovering over her.
"I want you to step aside and let us handle this." Chris tells her.
"You're kidding right?" Allison says.
"What about Scott, what if Derek isn't the only one who dies?" Chris asks.
"Since when do you care about Scott?" Allison replies.
"I care about you." Chris tells her.
"Dad, if you're going to start quoting from the list of the top 5 things a parent should say, why don't you start with I'm proud of you, because I'm doing exactly what you wanted." She shoots back.
"No, Allison, you're doing what he wants. We all do." Chris corrects her, looking at where Gerard disappeared to with anger.
At the hospital Melissa finally gets the chance to be alone with the corpse, now lying in the morgue and approaches the body bag carefully, seeing some kind of fluid dripping out of the bag. Upon opening it cautiously she sees the body of Harrison covered in his Kanima venom.
In the meantime, Peter lead Scott, Isaac and Derek back to the hale house.
"I told you, I looked everywhere." Derek says.
"Didn't look here." Peter disagrees, removing a board from the stairs and gets out a metal box with a laptop inside.
"A few days out of the coma, I transferred everything we had, fortunately the Argents weren't the only ones keeping record." Peter tells them, going into the former living room.
"Hey mom, I can't talk right now." Scott says answering his phone.
"Scott, I'm freaking out over here, something is happening with the body. Something is going on, I think you're going to want to see it for yourself." She tells him.
"What's happening to him?" Scott asks his mother, having come to the morgue with Isaac and Stiles met them there as well as Lydia.
"I don't know I thought you were going to tell me. Is it bad?" Melissa replies.
"It doesn't look good." Isaac replies looking over the encased body.
"Holy moly how did all that Kanima jelly get on our teach?" Stiles asks himself when he suddenly starts to move.
"Mom, could you zip it up please?" Scott asks his mother, who then zips up the bag, barely making it before Harrison tries to bite somebody.
At the Argent house Chris explains that his family has found scientific ways to force different reactions form their bodies to Erica and Boyd and tells them that when the lines between the supernatural and the scientific blurr, one is surprised on which side he may end up on and turns off the generator keeping them contained.
Peter and Derek are looking over the Hale's own bestiary.
"They say he's starting to move." Derek tells his uncle.
"OK, I got something, looks like the Kanima as we know it is in its beta shape." Peter says reading what the bestiary says.
"Meaning what, he can turn into something bigger?" Derek asks.
"Bigger and better." Peter replies, opening a picture with a stunned expression.
"He's turning into that? That has wings." Derek says.
"Maybe it'll be a match for our local birdie?" Peter replies.
"Scott bring him to us." Derek tells him over the phone.
"Is that a good idea?" Scott asks seeing the body bag move every so often.
"Bring him, now." Derek replies, telling him a meeting place.
Scott and Isaac then heft the body bag out of the hospital, bringing it to Lydia's car until Chris pulls up to the group of four in his land rover.
"You're alone." Scott says, listening for reinforcements.
"More than you know." Chris replies.
"What do you want?" Stiles asks.
"We don't have much in common Scott, Stiles, but at the moment we have a common enemy." Chris explains.
"That's why we're trying to get him out of here." Scott replies.
"I'm not talking about Harrison." Chris says.
"Gerard has twisted his way into Allisons head, the same way he did with Kate. I'm losing her, and I know you're losing her too." Chris explains, looking at Stiles.
"You're right, so can you trust me to fix this? Let the others go." Scott says.
"No. My car is faster." Chris tells him and everyone gets in his car after loading Harrison in his back.
The car pulls up at an abandoned factory a few minutes later and everyone gets out, with Lydia holding Scott's hand, dreading what's going to happen and dreading the fact that Peter might show his face as well.
"Where is Derek?" Chris asks and Derek runs in on all fours a moment later with Peter lurking in the shadows, staying hidden.
"Hold on a second, you said you know how to safe him." Scott tells Derek, who's opening the body bag intending to kill Harrison.
"Think about it Scott, Gerard controls him now. He turned Harrison into his own personal guard dog and set all of this in motion so that he could get even more powerful." Derek shouts at Scott.
"No, he wouldn't do that. If Harrison is a dog he's turning rabid and my father wouldn't let a rabid dog live." Chris tells them.
"Of course not. Anything that dangerous, that out of control is better off dead." Gerard says, mentally ordering the Kanima to attack Derek and throw him away.
"Well done to the last Scott. Like the nice guy that you are you brought Harrison to Derek to safe him. But you didn't realize that you were also bringing Derek to me." Gerard says and Scott has to duck under an incoming Arrow curtesy of Allison, pulling Lydia down with him but causing the arrow to hit Isaac instead.
"Allison?" Stiles says shocked and Scott sends Lydia back into the car alongside Stiles, while dragging Isaac away from the fight.
Chris opens fire on the Kanima until it grabs his gun with its tail and rips it away from him. Chris gets out a knife to fight back until the Kanima hits him with its tail, knocking him back a fair distance.
Derek has gotten back up during this time and shifts, ready to face the Kanima now. Isaac joins the fight alongside Peter and Scott stays back to keep Lydia and Stiles safe.
Issac rushes the Kanima from behind, knocking it over to Derek, who swipes at it but doesn't deal that much damage. The Kanima retaliates by knocking back both Derek and Isaac. Derek uses this chance to climb a crane standing in the building and waits for Peter to keep it in place, jumping off it, hitting the Kanima from behind with a doublefisted strike.
Isaac after getting knocked back gets attacked by Allison, mercilessly and she slices him multiple times with her knifes until he's out of commission, despite him not fighting back.
After knocking down Isaac Allison prepares to deliver a final strike if need be, until she gets grabbed by the Kanima, one hand holding her hands up and one at her throat. Claws ready to strike.
"Allison." Stiles yells panicking.
"Not yet." Gerard orders.
"What are you doing?" Allison asks shocked.
"He's doing what he came here to do." Scott replies.
"Then you know?" Gerard asks.
"What are you talking about?" Allison asks fearful.
"He's dying." Isaac answers.
"I am, I have been for a while now. Unfortunately, science doesn't have a cure for cancer yet. But the supernatural does." Gerard tells them, looking at Derek who is paralyzed by the Kanima's poison.
"What are you doing?" Allison yells when the Kanima moves its claws closer to her neck.
"You'd kill her too?" Chris asks shocked, having gotten back on his feet.
"If it comes to survival, I'd kill my own son." Gerard tells them.
"Scott?" Gerard says expectantly.
"Scott, just do it." Stiles begs him and Scott picks up Derek by his neck, pulling him over to Gerard and then lets Derek bite Gerard in the arm.
Gerard hold up his arm proudly until he sees black goo running out of the wound. He then falls to his knees asking "What is this? What did you do?" Gerard asks angrily.
"Everyone said Gerard has a plan so I got a plan too." Scott says, looking at Lydia.
Gerard gets out his medicine and cracks them open, cursing "mountain ash" loudly before the black goo runs out of his nose and mouth just before a huge amount erupts from his mouth.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Derek asks surprised.
"Because you might be an alpha, but you're not mine." Scott replies.
"Kill them. Kill them all." Gerard orders his Kanima one last time before losing consciousness.
Allison uses the short time the Kanima is distracted by Gerards fate to elbow it in the face and flee its grasp.
Scott then Screeches out, transforming and catches the Kanima's attention.
Scott ready his Talons and dashes at the Kanima, slashing for it but it dodges backwards. The Kanima then jumps at a wall thinking it's got the advantage while it's on high ground but Scott sprouts his wings and leaps after it, slashing at it and causing a deep wound on it.
The Kanima fall of the wall and heads for the easiest targets, Lydia and Stiles. Scott sees this and flies down in a matter of seconds, stopping it by landing on its back. "Keep it pinned." Scott tells Derek, Isaac, Peter and Chris.
"Scott are you sure about this?" Lydia asks him once more concerned.
"Yes. I have to do this." Scott replies confident that he can pull this off. He readies his Talons once the other hold each down one limb safe for its tail and stabs them in the Kanimas neck.
The others look upon the Talons glowing a bright color with bewilderment or concern.
After Scott absorbing the powers of the Kanima for a little over a minute with the Kanima twitching under him and Scott huffing out of breath the Kanima finally turns back into Harrison. Scott releases his hold on him as do the others and gets off of him.
"Scott?" Lydia asks concerned, seeing her boyfriend stumble over to a pillar, falling to one knee.
"I'm alright, just give me a minute." Scott groans out obviously in pain.
"I'm here." Lydia says, taking one of his hands, kneeling beside him.
"Ugh, thank you." Scott groans, before he passes out, falling into Lydia's arms, who lies him against the pillar, checking his vitals concerned before telling the others "He'll be OK, I think."
Meanwhile Harrison wakes up and looks around shocked. Chris takes him, Gerards unconscious body, his daughter and Stiles with him. Telling the others that they are going to leave for France the next morning and asking Stiles if he wants to join them, who readily agrees after seeing Lydia take care of the exhausted Scott.
A few hours later Scott wakes up, now in Lydia's house. Derek brought him there after Lydia asked him to.
"Ugh." He says sitting up, feeling as though his muscles are on fire.
"Scott? Oh thank god, I was getting worried." Lydia says relieved, slinging her arms around his neck.
"Uhhh. Yes, well I think I'm going to be alright now." Scott says wincing at the contact slightly.
"You did it. You beat Gerard and saved Mr. Harrison." Lydia tells him proudly.
"No, we did it. I wouldn't have been able to outwit Gerard without this." Scott reminds her, tapping her head with a smirk.
"Say, do you want to…" Lydia starts to ask until they hear loud roars coming from the woods.
"Oh fuck, not now." Scott curses, getting off her bed.
"I'm sorry sweetheart, I've to try and help them, they are in over their heads.
"Who?" Lydia asks confused by his behavior.
"Boyd and Erica." Scott replies and transforms his wings once he climbed out of her window and takes off, heading for the forest.
Erica and Boyd left town, hoping to find a new pack and come upon the alpha pack heading into town.
Scott lands in the middle of the circle of the alphas, right beside Boyd and Erica.
Looking around Scott sees the 5 alphas, who are now staring at him with curiosity.
"Look, I don't know what's going on here but let's talk about this." Scott says hoping to avoid a fight in his current state.
"My, my look what we have here, a little birdie came to help out the two mutts." Ennis, the biggest one of them taunts.
"Does that mean we can go?" Scott asks hopeful.
"No, it means I have one more plaything to beat around." Ennis says and rushes at them, scratching both Boyd and Erica, making them slump down in pain.
"Weak." Ennis scoffs and turns to Scott, who dodged the attack.
"Come here." Ennis says and Scott uses the advantage that he's underestimating him to quickly shift completely, saying "You asked for it." And slides past Ennis on one knee while clawing at him, leaving deep gashes on his side. Once he's on Ennis backside he jumps up and delivers another strike on the bigger man's shoulders. After this he uses the moment of surprise every one of the alphas show and picks up Boyd and Erica, before flying off.
"What was he?" Ennis asks pissed off that he got hurt so bad.
"another Alpha." Deucalion, their leader says with a sinister grin playing on his lips.
After rescuing the two betas Scott lets Boyd off at his house while Erica asks him if she could use his shower, to hide what happened from her mom and Scott agreed, seeing not much harm in it.
|A few minutes later|
Lydia arrives at the McCalls house and enters it with the spare, lying under a flowerpot near the door knowing Scott's mother won't be there.
"Scott?" She asks into the empty hallway and living room before she heads upstairs to his room.
Once she is in the hallway leading to Scott's room she can hear the shower in his bathroom running.
Erica who was sitting on Scott's bed, having just gotten dressed after finishing a shower of her own smells and hears the redhead approaching. She decides to try and put a wedge between Lydia and Scott because she's jealous of Lydia.
"Oh yes! Right there!" Erica moans and starts to make some banging sounds with the bed, loud enough for Lydia to hear.
"Rougher, give me all you got baby." She continues to fake a sex scene.
"Ah. Ah. Don't stop. Yes. Oh My God!" Erica yells faking having an orgasm.
Lydia, hearing this from the other side of the door breaks out in tears, believing that Scott is cheating on her and with Erica to add.
Having her worst nightmare come alive she runs out of the house, tears streaming and rushes home in her car.
Scott comes out of the shower, clueless of what happened minutes before. "Erica what are you doing?" Scott asks annoyed upon seeing the blonde lying on his bed seductively.
"I told you to take something to wear and then go home." Scott says. "Come on don't be like this, can't a girl thank her knight in shining armor properly?" Erica flirts.
"Thank me by leaving then." Scott replies and shoves her out of his room, flopping down on his bed sore all over.
|next day - Martin house|
Scott goes over to Lydia's to see how she's doing and maybe go on a date.
"Hi Mrs. Martin." Scott greets the older woman opening the door to check who ringed.
"What are you doing here?" She asks aggressively.
"What's wrong did I do something to offend you?" Scott asks her confused.
"You ask if you did something wrong? You cheated on my daughter, despite knowing about her trust issues." Lydia's mother accuses him.
"I did what now?" Scott asks shocked.
"Oh don't pretend, Lydia heard you and that Erica in your room yesterday night." She replies angrily.
"What!? Yes, Erica was in my room for like 10 minutes, i let her borrow something to wear because her clothes got ruined while camping." Scott says.
"Well that's not what Lydia said, and it doesn't matter now anyways. Erica left with Allison and Stiles to go to France and don't bother calling her, she left her phone." Mrs. Martin tells him, shutting the door in his face.
"France?" Scott says bewildered and leaves, heading to Derek's hideout to ask Erica what happened while he was in the shower.
Not long after he is at Derek's and asks Erica what happened, hoping Scott would make her his lover instead of Lydia she tells him the truth. She was dead wrong though and Derek and Isaac have to stop a full alpha Scott from killing Erica, who as a result flees, returning to her original plan to leave town with Boyd.
After learning the truth Scott texts Stiles to tell Lydia what happened but over the next three months of vacation Scott never got a return text despite many more attempts to make his best friend help him out.
Over the vacation many things were bad for Scott, the only good ones being his growing friendship with Isaac and Deaton, even Derek to an extent.
He also got closer to his mom, now that she knows about his other life as a were-eagle alpha.
However, the most disconcerting setback for Scott was the first full moon during Lydia's absence because added to the fact that he lost his anchor the powers of the Kanima are still not completely under his control. As a result, Scott let himself be chained up by Derek, Deaton and Isaac.
Derek and Isaac were quickly losing the fight against Scott on their own and had to call in Deaton with his mountain ash to trap him.
After he woke up the next day he sees the damage he did to both Derek and Isaac and feeling guilty and afraid of his own powers he searched for a way to gain control over them but found out that being his own anchor, something his mom suggested doesn't give him nearly as much control as he had when he was with Lydia. So, Scott had the idea to get a tattoo of Lydia to keep his hopes of getting Lydia back alive and remember their relationship.
Not long after the idea Scott sneaked into Lydia's room and took a picture of her smiling happily as well as leaving a note explaining his feelings and what really happened in his room with Erica.
After getting the tattoo made, he approached Derek, who had a tattoo of his own, meaning there is a way for shapeshifters to get one.
Derek then helps him gain the tattoo by burning the skin on Scott's arm, where he got the tattoo, making it appear on his arm again. This time permanently. Derek also informs Scott about the alpha pack during this time, hoping that together they can make it through whatever the pack challenges them with.
His control improved from that point on by leaps and bounds, but he still let himself get locked up to be safe.
Once the last day of the vacation is nearing Scott finally receives a text from Stiles, who only asks him to pick him up in his Jeep from the airport.
|last day of vacation - night|
Isaac was tasked by Derek to investigate what happened with his other betas, but Isaac underestimated the alpha pack and gets caught. A mercenary girl saves him from being killed but on their escape the both of them were hurt and brought to the hospital.
Meanwhile at the airport Scott is waiting for his friends to come back from France and hopes to get the chance to talk to Lydia.
He sees Stiles, Lydia and Allison arrive and waves at them. Stiles immediately waves back and comes over to his best friend excitedly, Lydia wants to go over to Scott but Allison hold her back, dragging her along with her, reminding her not to trust a word Scott says.
"Hey buddy." Stiles says excited once he reaches Scott.
"Hey man, what was that all about?" Scott asks dreadfully.
"Well, look man I don't know how to say this but Lydia kinda hates you right now, Allison got in her head, telling her how shapeshifters can't be trusted and stuff. She's still angry because of her mother." Stiles explains.
"Well that is hilarious." Scott scowls.
"Come again?" Stiles asks confused.
"The only reason Allison's mother is dead, is because she tried to kill me with wolfsbane fumes." Scott tells him.
"Wha…, Whoa how come this is the first time I'm hearing this?" Stiles yells.
"I didn't want to screw things up between you and Allison, so I kept it secret. But the only reason Derek bit her was because he rescued me, and her mother wanted us both dead." Scott says.
"Man, I don't know what to say." Stiles replies stunned.
"Doesn't matter. I'm not giving up on Lydia." Scott says, his eyes glowing shortly.
"Somehow you seem changed." Stiles says looking at his friend with interest.
"Because I have." Scott says sounding serious.
"Yeah OK, anyways what do you say, help a guy to his car?" Stiles asks him, holding up his bags.
"Sure, come on." Scott says, grabbing a bag from Stiles and leads him to where he parked the Jeep.
The two of them then head to Beacon Hills, talking along the way and catching up.
"Stiles, be honest with me please, do you think Lydia really doesn't want anything to do with me anymore?" Scott asks silently, dreading the answer.
"As much as Allison wanted her to move on, I don't think she ever did." Stiles replies.
"Did you tell her what really happened?" Scott asks.
"Yes, despite Allison's protests I let her read every message you sent, sad thing is I think that she only was really happy while reading your texts." Stiles tells him.
"Can't say it was fun being apart from her either." Scott replies, touching his tattooed arm but deciding to keep it hidden for now by wearing long sleeved shirts.
In the car not far ahead of them Allison and Lydia are also talking.
"So Lydia, we're all by ourselves now. Why did you only go on two dates and even then only stay for the aperitive so to speak?" Allison asks
"I don't know, it didn't seem right with Stiles there." Lydia answers, thinking to herself 'and I'm not over Scott yet, like at all.'
"I see, so tomorrow night we'll go look for a new guy for you?" Allison suggests.
"Let's put that on hold for now." Lydia replies, motioning over to Stile's Jeep in the lane next to them.
Scott sees them as well and tries to wave at Lydia, but Allison floors it, despite standing at a red light.
"What was that about?" Lydia asks.
"I don't want you getting poisoned by his lies." Allison replies.
"What's their problem?" Scott asks Stiles.
"Like I said she's not good with the supernatural nowadays." Stiles tells him.
"You know that Lydia is actually supernatural right?" Scott asks him.
"And I did in fact, not know that? What the hell is she then?" Stiles asks.
"A banshee, according to Peter, if you can trust his word." Scott answers.
"Banshee huh?" Stiles mumbles and drives after the girls once the light is green again.
"Do you think we're too close and Lydia thinks I'm stalking her?" Scott asks, his mind wondering.
"Better?" Stiles asks stopping the car.
"Why would this be better?" Scott questions with a small laugh.
"Oh, now they stopped as well." Stiles says seeing the girl's car stopping barely 30 meters away from them.
"Why'd you stop?" Lydia asks her best friend confused.
"Stiles stopped, maybe his car is broken again?" Allison says, looking back at her boyfriend's car.
"Want to check?" Lydia suggests, in secret wanting to finally have the opportunity to at least talk to Scott.
"I don't know." Allison says thinking things over, when suddenly a deer comes running straight at them, but before it can impact with their car Scott already got out of their car and leaped over Allison's and screeches at the deer while holding out his hands to stop it if it continues, the screech however was enough and the deer takes off running to the side.
"What the hell was that? It came running out of nowhere." Allison says, getting helped out of the car by Stiles.
"Is everyone OK?" Scott asks, losing his transformation.
"I'm alright." Allison replies.
"I'm not. Getting there though." Lydia replies, looking Scott directly in the eyes and feels a wave of content rushing over her.
"Why the hell did that der come running directly at us, it was like it was crazy." Allison says.
"It was scared. I guess they are finally revealing themselves." Scott says.
"revealing? What are you talking about?" Stiles asks, hugging Allison.
"I'll tell you some other time, I think it's better if we get home now." Scott says and Stiles gives Allison a kiss, saying "See you tomorrow."
Scott makes his way back to the car, going past Lydia and whispers "I'm here for you, whenever you need me, or want to talk."
Lydia actually wanted to respond and ask him if they can talk about what happened, but Allison stops her by yelling "Lydia get in the car!"
