The Lunar Eclipse
(Previously)
Everyone sat around three ice water tubs with worried expressions "so we have to die… but not really die"? Deaton nodded his head look at everyone with a focused gaze "you'll be giving power to the nematon… which will bring a lot more monsters to Beacon Hills". Stiles scoffed "can't be worse than anything we have already seen".
Deaton looked at him with a serious gaze "you would be surprised about what you haven't seen". Scott piped in with a shaky voice "we have to do this… for our parents… and for Zach". They all sat quite with different expressions "well … you will have a darkness around your heart… like a scar". They nodded as they held onto their mementos as they went to get in the water "hey Deaton … what if beating Jennifer doesn't help Zach"?
Deaton sighed holding onto Scott's shoulders "I have a few ideas… but if this goes as planned then we will get our loveable goofball back". They all nodded as they were dunked under the water without any struggling.
(Now)
Clawing and howling came from the locked up room here Zach was being held. Torn metal and fur scattered across the floor. He slammed against the cage bending the bars but not breaking anyone of them. He breathed heavily falling down barking at the door making the building shake before he passed out. Before he loses vision the garage door opens up showing off Kali and the twins staring at him.
Kali smiles as the twins walkover pulling out a syringe "now this will just ease your mind… and help you do what needs to be done". They gave Zach the mystery serum and led him out of the cage. They walked with him past Deucalion whom smiled at them "make sure to bring him back if the plan fails". Kali nodded with a long smile "don't worry with this little guy we'll kill them all no problem".
She leaned down to Zach rubbing behind his ear making him wag his tail "see he loves me now". Deucalion reached down grabbing her shoulder "do not kill him … I know he killed Ennis but right now he is our new pet". She nodded as he licked at her face making a faint smile appear on her face. They walked out making their way to Derek's loft with evil grins spreading across their face.
Ethan went ahead to make sure everything was going to be ready for them "I'll meet you at the loft". Kali nodded letting him run off as they walked through the forest "ok boy I want you to take down the tree". She pointed over to a large cracked tree that would fall to the road as her eyes lit up red making his turn red as well. He jumped forward bounding at the tree and slamming against it with his now massive body.
The tree snapped in half crashing onto the road blocking anyone from getting to the old abandoned mill. She smiled clapping her hands together petting him all over "what a good boy… now let's see if you can do it to your friends". They walked on making their way to the loft with every intention to kill everyone there".
(The animal clinic)
The three teens exploded from the water with heavy breathing "it's in the forest where we found the body". Scott coughed up water looking over to Stiles "we found it the night Peter bit me and this all started". Alison quickly wrapped a towel around herself "my mom and I almost hit someone that night and I saw it as well". Scott looked up with a surprised look "you guys almost hit me".
They all had large smiles on their face as they looked to the others "wait… what's wrong"? Isaac threw Scott a towel to warm himself up "you guys have been out a long time". Stiles looked up with a scared face "how long is a long time"? Deaton spoke up "16 hours … the full moon rises in 4 hours". Before anything else could happen a ring from the front door caught their attention as Deaton walked to the front.
Ethan stood their with a worried expression "I need your help … to stop Kali from killing Derek". Everyone peaked out with varying expressions "... what the hell would you do that for".
(An hour later with Zach)
The large wolf was guided up the stairs by Kali as they stepped in front of the large metal door. She broke the door open as Zach bound through jumping up tering the alarm off the wall with his teeth. Lydia and Ethan stared at Zach with fear "Zach… Alison told me you were a wolf now". Ethan looked over to her with a sad look "Kali gave him a special wolfsbane … for the next hour he's gonna be following Kali's instructions".
Kali stepped forward as Zach sat down next to her wagging his tail at her head rubs "so where's Derek"? Lydia looked back to Ethan "I think he had to get some groceries … you know the normal werewolf evening". Kali strode forward making Aiden growl out "she's not the problem". Kali looked back with a laugh "I think someone took their job a little too serious". Before any more arguing could occur the skylight broke with Jennifer landing on the floor "who's first". Kali jumped forward with a roar slashing at her letting the fight continue "i'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago".
Zach growled out growing to his large form with blood red eyes as he bound forward only to have a hand placed in his face. Jennifer spoke one word under his breath making him fly back into the wall. Lydia ran over seeing Zach's now naked body lied there on the ground "Zach your back"! He lied still as his eyes opened wide "I can move… i'm back … finally now I can execute plan save everyone's ass".
He stood up forgetting the fact he was nude as his eyes grew bright red "you fucked up Jennifer… for the next few hours I am at peace with myself". He ran forward as glass flew at Kali ready to impale her. Zach slammed the floor and threw a rock in front of Kali's face blocking the glass. Kali looked down seeing her body was still impaled all over making her fall forward presumed dead.
The twins roared out punching over Jennifer as she grabbed their neck and bent down snapping it clean. Zach froze seeing the melded twins fall dead "... she… killed them like they were nothing". She reached up only for Zach to back down "wiat… I can get Derek back here… I know you want him to help you". She smiled lowering her hand "good … but don't try anything funny… I didn't plan on killing you but I can".
Zach goes to the window giving a howl that shakes the building and rattles he glass making the two women cover their ears. He looks back at her covering his junk "would you mind if I went upstairs and got dressed while we wait"? She gave a nod smiling at him "go ahead… it's not like a sneak attack will work". He ran upstairs finding some tan jeans and a black shirt "this will work for now".
He walked downstairs grabbing Lydia and keeping her away from Jennifer "he's here … I smell him". Derek pushed through the door looking at the three of them "Zach … your back to your own self". Zach nodded as Cora ran over holding Lydia as Zach stood in front of them protecting them. Derek looked around "so you did this for me… I find it hard to believe".
Jennifer went through some convoluted story and plan that Derek went along with "i'll get everyone back". They walked out leaving the three of them making Cora growl out "we have to go find some help". Before Cora and Lydia could walk out of the room a sickening noise sounded out as the twins pulled apart. Zach thought on his feet "you guys get these two to Deaton and see if he can save them".
Cora looked over at him as they lifted the twins "what are you gonna do… we need as much help as we can get"? Zach smiled looking over to Kali hearing faint heart beats "I have plan… get going now"! They ran out as Zach slowly walked over to Kali kneeling down "ok… time to find out if this works". He pulled all of the glass out of her throwing them to the side as he grabbed her hand.
His veins pulled back her pain making him grunt "god damn who knew you were in so much pain". He continued to pull pain away as his eyes turned red along with his clothes "already bleeding through". Her wounds slowly closed as her breathing got louder and more stable "what". He finished when no more pain pulled away and his wounds healed as they appeared "guess I have a few perks".
She opened her eyes grabbing out at his throat only for him to catch it out of the air "what did you do"?! Zach pushed her hand down as he pulled her into his lap carrying her over to the couch "I stopped you from dying". She looked up confused "why would you do that … I have tried killing you all"? Zach set her down kneeling "because I killed someone you love… and it will haunt me forever".
She stared him down with wide eyes "how do you know I won't just kill you later"? Zach shrugged his shoulders "I don't … but Deucalion thinks your dead… and now you have a second chance on life". She leaned up with a hiss of pain "you're too naive… helping the enemy… how did you heal me"? He held up his hand grabbing her own pulling some pain back "i'm an original… or descendant of one".
Her eyes went wide "that's why you were our priority … that's some bad luck on our part". He smiled giving a small laugh "don't worry about it… leave this city and go find a new life". He got up before a strong hand grabbed his "what can I do to make it up to you"? Zach smiled pulling her up "well you can do two things for me… one of these days maybe you can do me a favor". She nodded with a careful look "and what other thing… you don't want me to help you kill Deucalion"?
Zach shook his head leaning forward "well the pervert in me would love a kiss". She growled at him "that's not happening… your way too young for me". Zach chuckled out "your right… and I have a girlfriend… then just the favor". She nodded standing up giving him a small hug "this is all you get kid". Before she could react a pair of strong hands lifted her off the ground by her ass before dropping her.
She froze as he laughed out running out of the building "been wanting to do that since we met". She yelled back something but it fell quite as he left the building with his jeans becoming tighter. He ran through the town jumping through the air shedding the clothes and landing in his wolf from.
He ran into the forest making his way back to the mill as a new storm raged on "I think it's time we had a bit of … teamwork". A small chuckle resounded in his brain as he stopped roaring in pain 'this won't feel good'. His bones cracked and groaned as his body changed from it's previous form.
(With the others)
Scott stood with Deucalion as the ground shook with lightning "are you sure we're enough"? The blind man looked over to him "don't worry Scott I have a bit of … reinforcements on the way". As he spoke a howl that broke through the lightning reached their ears "and it sounds like he is on his way".
(With Derek)
The two adults walking into the distillery staring down the two wolves "Derek… what are you doing with her"? Derek gave him a sad look "believe it or not … i'm actually trying help you". Duke smiles throwing his cane to the side "well brother against brother… how American". He looked over to Jennifer "let us show these two why you had to kill 9 innocent people just for me".
His skin turned black as the storm crashed down illuminating his new form with caved in eyes and bloody eyes. Derek jumped forward slashing at Duke only to be thrown back like a insect "you'll have to do better than that". Jennifer built up her power and slammed it into his chest only for it to slide past him. He grabbed her throat tossing her back and quickly grabbing her hair "now kill her Scott".
He looked up at him with wide eyes "wait… I can't kill her she's beaten… we won". Duke grabbed Scott's neck with a smile "all you need is a helping hand… now turn into the wolf you are meant to be". Scott looked back as he rummaged in his jeans "I forgot to tell you something Gerard told me… Deucalion isn't always blind". He threw the flash grenades on the floor blinding the wolves.
(With Zach)
Zach stepped out with white fur along with a much larger body 'this is nice… I can feel the strength'. He jolted forward making massive footprints in the ground as he ran towards the distillery. He broke through trees and bushes as he slowly ran on his hind legs in a white furred version of Peter. His fur was vibrant and his snout was long letting him make an even louder howl than before.
He broke through into the clearing standing taller than ever before 'now we kill the witch… I can feel her magic still'. He looked on as a large wave of energy hit him making his fur go wild 'what the hell'. Jennifer fell outside the building as Scott looked down at her "stop the storm or i'll kill you … no matter the color of my eyes".
Zach ran forward on all fours silenced by the thunder 'sorry Scott I made a deal'. He saw Deucalion charge after her ready to slash her throat. But time stopped as a massive white wolf came from the side of the build with an open jaw. He barreled into Jennifer biting down on her neck tearing it open and snapping her neck.
Scott and Derek had wide eyes as they pair of them flew across the field landing with the lifeless corpse in his maw. He dropped the body looking up at the group walking forward as he slowly became human "hey Scott". Scott ran forward grabbing his shoulders "Zach why did you do that… you killed her"?! Zach gave a sad look "I made a deal with my other self… we work together if I kill her".
Scott stared at him with red eyes "... and you did it… you killed again". Zach grabbed his friend pulling him into a hug "you don't understand… I was trapped in my own mine… I took the chance to leave". Scott stopped feeling his friends shaky breath "... ok… but never again… we'll fix you". Zach nodded as he pulled back catching the jacket Derek threw him "thanks… being naked sucks". He wrapped it around his waist as the three of them looked back at Duke "now listen close".
Zach jumped forward grabbing Duke "where is my father's ring … I know he gave it you"? Deucalion nodded pulling a ring from his pocket "I meant to give it to you when we first met… but I saw the conflict you were going through and used it to my advantage". Zach swiped the ring from him quickly sliding it on his finger "did he really give it to you"? Duke nodded "he was my friend… I always planned to honor his last wish".
(The next day)
Zach stood outside of Alison's apartment rubbing his father's ring 'it's weird… I want to see her … but i'm scared'. His hand dropped forward giving a small knock on the door making him gulp down his fear. The door opened to Chris giving him a serious look "she's in her room… and I still have all my guns". Zach nodded with a nervous sweat dripping down his face "i'll keep that in mind sir".
He ran down the hall giving a small knock on the door "come in i'm just putting some stuff away". Zach slipped in with a smile closing the door behind him as he saw her with her back to him. She continued putting clothes and other things away "so what do you need dad… I told you i'm not hungry". She turned around freezing as she stared at Zach "Zach … you have some nerve waiting so long to show up".
Zach gave her a cheeky smile as he ran forward lifting her up kissing her deeply "just had some stuff to figure out". She kissed him back wrapping her legs around him before pulling back "what about the other you"? Zach raised his hand tapping the ring "he's been silent since I got this… I think my father had something similar". She smiled pulling him back falling to the bed "well then we need to talk about that Coyote fling you had".
He felt a blush rise to his face as she smiled at him "well I mean… do we have to". She laughed out pulling his lips to hers "I guess everything is working out for the best". He nodded as his hand slipped down to her legs "shall we celebrate"? A sound made him pause "your dad is loading his gun… should I run"? She giggled out pushing him towards the window "we can have dinner later".
He nodded jumping out the window climbing down the fire escape "dinner… well then I need to get some better clothes". He jumped down and started running to Scott's house with a large smile. He ran forward jumping over a fence landing in the forest covered in fur howling out 'man … everything feels perfect'. He ran forward going through the forest jumping from hill to hill making massive paw prints.
He jumped over a fence and made a huge leap up into Scott's room landing right on top of him. Scott throws him off looking down at the mud he tracked in "dude… why can't you use the door"?! Zach bit at his back pack that he left in Scott's room and carried it into the bathroom changing into his clothes. He walked out smiling at the dirt covered Scott "sorry man … I love running in wolf form".
Scott sighed sitting back down in his bed "well what are you doing here… I thought you were seeing Alison"? Zach walked over to his bed falling into it "well her dad pulled a gun … I have a question"? Scott looked over at him throwing him a towel "ask me while you clean off the mud thats all over your face". Zach chuckled wiping his face clean "... if you could get back with Alison would you"?
Scott stuttered making Zach chuckle "well … if you guys broke up and she wanted to … then maybe … I don't know". Zach laid back groaning "she wants to go on a date tonight… and I have no idea what that means". Scott punched him in the shoulder laughing "it means she wants a real relationship… just go and have a good time". Zach nodded looking up at him "well the other problem … I need something nice to wear".
Scott pointed to his dresser "take what you want… and get some new clothes later you bum". Zach laughed out jumping up and rummaging through his dresser "I will … but i'll be keeping the clothes for tomorrow as well". Zach ran out with Scott chasing after him "what do you mean tomorrow"! Zach ran down the stairs ignoring the screams of his friend "sorry dude gotta jet"!
He ran out the door bumping into Melissa catching her purse as it fell "whoa sorry Melissa". The nurse looked up at him with a happy smile "Zach… you never call me Melissa… what's up"? Zach looked down at her with a smirk "I don't know I guess… I never noticed how beautiful you are". He walked past her leaving her stuttering over her words as he walked away leaving the home.
He ran off into another part of town walking into Derek's loft "well I guess you guys are already set to leave". Derek looked back with a smile "yeah we're taking Cora back home … she doesn't need to be around all this". Zach walked over with a smile lifting the old alarm system "sorry about making this a chew toy". Derek looked over as it dropped to the ground "don't worry… you seem a lot better".
Zach nodded walking over as Peter walked down "I found some… what… is he doing here"? Zach looked up giving Peter a wave "hey Pete heard you have been doing better at not killing". Both the former wolves looked over at him with confused looks "umm did you just call the man that killed your uncle… Pete"? Zach thought for a moment before chuckling "yeah … I guess I just have been feeling great today".
Cora walked into the loft carrying a few bags "I got everything I need… what's going on here"? Zach looked back smiling wide walking over "well I was just here to ask you out … but it seems that your leaving soon". Cora went bright red as he appeared in front of her tracing her cheek "maybe we can celebrate you leaving". A strong smack sent him to the ground "I don't know what's wrong with you … but you need to figure it out".
Derek ran forward as Zach's claw reached out at Cora "Zach stop it now"! Both Derek and Peter pulled him back holding him down "what's wrong with you". Zach's body froze mechanically turning to look at Derek "i'm just being me". His eyes flickered on throwing the two wolves back into the concrete walls. He rolled back jumping onto the table looked down at the three of them "this is me … and him". He jumped over the three and ran out leaving them to chase after him.
Derek threw his phone at Peter "call the others and tell them what's happening … Cora and I will try getting him to calm down". Peter nodded as they ran after the teen who quickly made it outside "faster Cora"! Zach jumped over a railing and landed next to Derek's jeep slashing the tires open "catch me now". He jumped forward turning into a wolf running down the street turning the corner.
He skid to a stop as Argent and Alison were sitting in a truck stopped in front of him "Zach what's happening with you"!? The wolf growled as he ran forward jumping up and bending the top of the truck. He jumped off running further down the street jumping over cars and people who screamed out at seeing him. He ran into the forest before two people jumped through the trees slamming him into the ground.
Scott and Isaac held him down both of them growling out "Zach stop fighting us … what the hells is the problem". The wolf slowly morphed into something more terrifying throwing the both off. He stood up in his full transformation looking like a werewolf from a movie "you won't hurt me Scott… I know you". Isaac jumped forward only to be caught out of the air and slammed into the ground. Scott roared out loudly as he swiped at Zach hitting Isaac's flying body smashing into him.
Zach turned back running through the forest again before quickly covering his ears as sonic emitters surrounded him. Derek and Cora jumped out of the tree as the emitters turned off slamming him into the ground. Scott and Isaac piled on top pinning him down with all their strength "what do we do"?! Alison pointed out the ring on the large werewolves finger "take the ring off now".
As she spoke Zach's eyes widened roaring out shaking the forest and throwing the others off him. He looked around hearing an equally loud roar coming from behind them "stand down now Zach"! Zach turned back to see a massive werewolf with broken bones stabbing through his skin "... Dylon". Zach snarled at him running forward smashing into him making a loud blunt sound. They fought with ferocity slashing at each other and tearing bones and flesh off one another.
Zach growled out as he dug his claws into Dylon lifting him high in the sky and throwing him against a tree. Before he could heal a black dog jumped from the bushes biting down on his arm. Before Zach could grab at the dog Chad in full werelion mode exploded from the trees knocking him to the ground. He looked up with a blue eyes "everyone hold him down now"! All the wolves ran over grabbing a limb holding him down.
Derek went to take the ring off only for a loud voice to stop him "don't take it off… let me look at it". Deaton walked into the clearing running over to Zach's hand clicking the ring open "I knew it". Isaac growled out as a sharp tooth bit down on his arm "can you hurry Doc he's getting a little angry". Deaton pulled a small yellow clump of mistletoe out of the ring "I made this ring for Alexander… Zach's father… runes to keep him under control and herbs to keep the voices at bay".
He lifted the herb to his nose "mistletoe dipped in a rare form of wolfsbane… Jennifer did this somehow". He pulled a lighter out and burned the herbs up and quickly closing the ring "the ring shouldn't be bothering him any more". The wolves looked down at him feeling no struggling "guys… it's me". They jumped back seeing Zach back to normal "Deaton are you sure that worked… I feel weak and … weird"?
Deaton helped him up "you'll be fine… wearing the ring for a few weeks made you weaker… but that voice will continue to speak to you". Scott grabbed his friend giving him a quick hug "wait … what's the point of the ring then". Deaton held up Zach's hand "I made this for his father… it stops the other you from doing anything… your father found a way to stop the voice… that's when he stopped being Fenris and started being Alexander".
Zach nodded hearing the retorts from inside his head "well if he can't do anything then all I have to do is … ignore him". Deaton nodded "I have been working on finding your father's claws … or his whole body but I haven't had much luck". Zach shook his head walking back towards town "it's fine… this was just the ending to the troubles we have been having". Everyone gave him a smile as Alison walked over hugging him "we'll all be fine".
