I watched as Scott looked at the cars, then jumped over one of the buses only to disappear into the woods

"Come on, Lydia. Stay with me. Come on. Help me! Somebody help! Help me! Get help, please!" I heard Jackson screaming, he had someone in his arms, Lydia, I

raced over to her as fast as I could, I waited with her till the ambulance arrived, I got in as I watched them prepping her, the drive to the hospital was long, she had

been bitten by Peter no less. Soon the back doors opened, I watched as doctors got her inside, I walked to see them go into another room. My best friend is hurt

because of Peter, it was about an hour before they got her in a room where the windows could let me see her.

"I should have protected you" I said feeling a tear go down my face,

"I - I don't know. I went out looking for her -" Jackson's voice echoed through my ears, I looked to my left to see the Sheriff holding Jackson against a wall,

"What, you just happened to wander into the middle of that field and you just found her there like that? Don't lie to me, son. " Sheriff yelled at him, I shook feeling

the emotions inside me breaking,

"No, I -" Jackson said stammering his words,

"Hey! What happened to her?" Sheriff asked him, I was shaking, I need Derek.

"This isn't my fault!" Jackson retorted to him, he's an officer Jackass.

"She's your girlfriend! That's your responsibility! " Sheriff yelled at him,

"No, she's not, okay? She didn't go to the formal with me." Jackson said as I felt a chill going up my spine, something bad's happening.

"Then who'd she go with?" Sheriff asked him,

"Do you really wanna know? She went with Stiles." Jackson said answering his question,

"What?" Sheriff asked in disbelief,

"Stiles took her." Jackson said as he clarified himself,

"Somebody better find my son." Sheriff said looking around. I heard Derek's howl, I got out of the hospital, taking my heels off, I ran to my home, and dropped my

shoes at my doorstep. I then ran to the Hale Manor, I saw an opened grate, I crouched and got inside, I heard Scott's voice, so I walked towards it.

"Maybe you're right. But I know something you don't. Peter said he didn't know what he was doing when he killed your sister, right? He lied. Remember this? This is

what brought your sister back to Beacon Hills, right?" Scott said as I got closer.

"Where did you get that?" I froze, Derek? I started rushing.

"My boss told me three months ago someone came into the clinic asking for a copy of this picture. Do you wanna know who it was? Peter's nurse. They brought your

sister here so that Peter could kill her and become the Alpha, and that's why you're going to help me. Just say you'll help me, and I'll help you unlock your other"

Scott said and I heard metal break, I got to where the voice were, there before me was Scott and.

"I'll help you." Derek said rubbing his wrist.

"Derek" I said happy feeling tears going down my cheeks, he looked up at me, mouth a gaping, I darted to him, pouncing on him, wrapping my arms around him. I

cried in his arms, happy to be reunited with him, I looked into his eyes, he pressed kisses on my face then pressed them to my lips. We stood there for about a

minute before parting, our foreheads touching.

"I love you so much" I said feeling tears dropping down my face, he wiped them away.

"I love you too Lexi" He said as I smiled, After getting his jacket, shirt,phone, and wallet, The three of us got out off the cellar.

"Hey. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Something doesn't feel right." Derek said as I stayed near him.

"What do you mean?" Scott asked him, I was really confused.

"I don't know. It's - it's kind of like it's" Derek started to speak.

"No, don't say "too easy." People say "too easy" and bad things happen. What, do you think finding you was easy? Getting away from Allison's dad? None of this has

been easy." Scott said with a bit of his wolf present.

"Fine. You're right."Derek said as I saw someone approaching us,

"Lexi you have to get them out of here" Dad said as I was surprised,

"Dad what are you doing here?" I asked as he looked at me. He looked behind me, I soon felt Derek put me behind him as I smelt blood being spilled, Derek's.

"Now the leg." Kate said smiling, she fired it at my dad, I saw the arrow lodge into his left chest.

"Flash bolt." Kate said smiling as I got to my dad,

"Scott, your eyes!" Derek screamed as I covered my dad.

"Get up! Let's go!" Dad said getting me up.

"Natural talent." Kate said smiling at her niece.

"Scott Lexi, go!" Derek said leading us forward, my dad slowing down as I grab him.

"Allison, I can explain." Scott said as she glared at him.

"Stop lying. For once stop lying." She said holding her bow in her hands, arrow prepped to fire.

"I was gonna tell you the truth at the formal. I was gonna tell you everything. Because everything that I said, everything that I did" Scott started explaining

everything to her.

"Was to protect me."She spoke for him stopping him. He nodded at her being honest.

"I don't believe you. " She said as she had blue shining tears in her eyes, but her heart sped up, she does believe him.

"Thank God. Now, shoot him before I have to shoot myself." Kate said to her niece annoyed.

"You - you said we were just gonna catch them?" Allison said worried about Scott.

"We did that. Now we're gonna kill them." She said before shooting at me, but my dad jumped in the way, it hit his chest,

"No Dad" I screamed as I rushed over to him, I pressed my hand on the bullet wound, blood pooling under the pressure I was applying.

"Kate! I know what you did. Put the gun down." I looked up to see Chris pointing his gun at his sister, who had her gun pointed at Scott.

"I did what I was told to do." She said pointing the gun at me and my dad,

"No one asked you to murder innocent people. There were children in that house, ones who were human. Look what you're doing now. You're holding a gun at a 19 -

year - old girl and her father whom you have injured with no proof they spilled human blood. We go by the code - Nous chassons ceux qui nous chassent." Chris told

her,

"We hunt those who hunt us." I said quietly,

"Put the gun down." Chris said as he shot near her head,

"Before I put you down." Chris said serious, Kate put her gun down, my dad was already gasping or air, I applied more pressure.

"Allison, get back." Chris said as I saw Derek get beside me,

"What is it?" Allison asked as the door to the Hale Manor opened loudly.

"It's the Alpha." Scott growled before I saw a large black shape begin to tripped everyone except me.

"Come on! Come on!" Kate yelled, she spun around trying to find him, but Peter came from behind. He grabbed her arm where she had her gun, she fired two shots

before he broke her arm, I heard the loud crack. He grabbed her neck, then threw her in the air, she landed on the porch, Peter got to where she was and dragged

her inside.

"Stay with your dad" Derek said as I nodded, I watched as both Scott and Derek go inside. I put my dad's head in my lap,

"Daddy your going to be ok" I said feeling tears going down my face,

"Lexi, I don't need to look to know that I don't have much time left" He said looking me in my eyes as I take his hand in mine. I hear glass shatter, I look up to see

Scott a few feet from me, I see the Alpha growling at him,loping to Scott, picking him up to bring him to his face. Peter growling at Scott, I watch as he hits Peter

with his legs, Peter crashes into the porch, he gets up on his hind legs, growling. I soon hear beeping, Stiles and Jackson had Self Igniting Molotov Cocktail. Stiles

throws his, but Peter grabs it, then growls at Stiles,

"Oh damn" He says as Scott tosses Allison's bow to her, she pulls the string and arrow back, then lets the arrow fly. It hit the cocktail, setting it ablaze, the flames

drench the alpha's arm, Peter tries shaking it off, but it doesn't work. Jackson then throws his Cocktail, setting Peter full on fire, he lets out a roar and looks at Allison,

he crawls to her but Scott kicks him in the chest, Peter stumbles away from us, letting out mutilated noises, I keep holding my dad's hand, Peter collapses on his

knees, phasing back to his normal form, his entire body coated with blood, burnt skin and ash. He lets a guttural noise before collapsing on his back. Dad lets out a

cough, his lips stained with his blood, which was starting to turn black, I smelt Derek, I looked to see him above Peter.

"Wait! You said the cure comes from the one who bit you." Scott said to my mate, Derek closes his eyes with a huff, there is no cure, never was one.

"Derek. If you do this, I'm dead." Scott told him, I shake my head, once in this life, you never leave it, it's for life, my dad coughed a bit more blood,

"Her Father Her Family, what am I supposed to do?" Scott said yelling at Derek who opened his eyes again. Derek looked at me as if waiting for my approval,

"This is your vendetta, he's too dangerous" I said low enough for him to hear.

"You've-already-decided. I can smell it on you!" Peter said as his eyes glowed red at his nephew. Derek lifted his claws, Scott yells at him not to, but it was too late,

Derek slashed Peter's throat, he chocked on his own blood, then laid dead still. Derek get up then looks at us, his eyes that once glowed an electric blue, now glowed

a crimson red

"I'm the Alpha now." Derek said as his wolf mixed with his own. Dad coughed even more,

"Dad please don't leave me" I said crying, kissing his knuckles,

"I need y...you walking me down the isle at my wedding, being happy that your a grandfather, telling embarrassing stories about my childhood" I said choking up on

my tears, I looked to see Derek on the other side of my dad, I look to see everyone around us sad or crying. I looked at my dad, sobbing.

"Derek" Dad said trying to clear his throat,

"Yes sir" Derek said looking into his eyes,

"I give you my blessing to marry my daughter, I..." Dad stopped only to coughing up more blood,

"I always knew you would be the one to... sweep her off her feet, you take care of them you hear, never abandon them" Dad said coughing even more.

"Yes Sir, I promise" Derek said as my dad look at me, his eyes dimming faster,

"Alexandra Raposo Vulpe, I want you to live your life, I am happy to say that I am proud of you for being my daughter, I Love You" Dad said before his breathing got

lighter and lighter, then his heart stopped. I let out a cry before gripping my dad's shirt, sobs raked my body, I felt arms go around me, I looked to see Derek close

my dad's eyes, then wrap his arms around me. Derek carried me home, the radio came on telling California that Derek was innocent. I heard a knock at my door, I

open it to see the Sheriff, he asked to come in. He told me that my father was killed, I cried and cried, Derek came by my side to comfort me,

"He's ok" I said still crying as I get into his embrace. The night ended with my father's death, his funeral would be on Monday, my dad's lawyer would discuss his will

with me after the funeral.
