Chapter 7

I narrowed my eyes and looked into the rear view mirror, focusing my eyes on the SUV that was trailing behind Derek's Camaro.

Yes, you got that right.

I, along with Scott and Stiles were inside Derek's car. By now they knew that he was still alive and were more suspicious that ever before. They had so many questions and reasons not to trust me. I'm going to have to tell them what I am, my story, including the part about my mother. I just hope that they won't hate me afterwards.

Regardless that he nearly died, Derek still made the decision to go search for the Alpha. In order to do that, he recruited Scott and me to drive his car around, going as we were the distraction for the hunters. No one in their right minds would agree to this, but y'all know that we are crazy. We made no hesitation on dragging Stiles along for the fun. Because let's be honest here, there's no fun without Stiles. He's the definition of fun!

I was driving; Scott was in the passenger seat and Stiles in the back. I just hope the person following us doesn't catch us.

"It's that women… What's her name again? Uhmm… Oh, yea Kate! She's the one following us!" I heard Stiles say and calmed down a little bit. I mean, I know for a fact that she wouldn't shoot us. She wouldn't right? Who am I kidding the bitch is crazy!

"Faster?" I ask them, clearly shaken up. The responsibility was on me, to make sure we got away from my crazy stalker of a mother.

"Much faster," Scott says, glancing back.

I shift the gear and stepped down further on the gas pedal. The engine purred loudly, gaining us more speed. I look back in the rear view mirror, seeing that she's still close behind us.

"Hey, Kim, I don't think you're grasping the concept of the car chase here," Stiles remarked from the backseat.

"If I go faster I'll kill us," I said, tightening my grip on the steering wheel.

"If you don't go faster, then they are going to kill us," Scott was the one who spoke this time.

I took in a deep breath and shifted the Camaro into the next gear, pressing down harder on the gas pedal. The engine purred louder this time and we were racing down the road.

I think Kate finally gave up because the next thing Stiles said was, "They are gone."

I look around and in the mirror again, sighing relieved once I saw for myself that the SUV was nowhere to be seen. We calmed down and Stiles switched on the police scanner.

"All units, suspect is on foot heading into iron works," Said Sheriff Stilinski, warning the rest of the listening police on the radio. I glance at Scott and quickly drive ahead to the iron works.

"Get in!" Yelled Scott as we pulled up at the location. He went into the back, sitting beside Stiles as Derek ran towards the car, closing the door as he got in. I drove off, just as someone started shooting.

"What part of laying low don't you understand?" questioned Scott.

"Damn it! I had him!" Derek said angry, hitting the dashboard.

Stiles leaned forward between the seats and asked, "Who the Alpha?"

"Yes, he was right in front of me and then the freaking police showed up!"

"Oh, well they are just doing their jobs,"

I bit back a giggle as I saw Derek glaring at Stiles.

"Yeah. Thanks to someone who decided to make me the most wanted fugitive in the entire state!" Derek said, looking back at Scott.

"Can we seriously get past that? I made a dumbass mistake, I get it"

"Alright, that's enough! So how did you find him?" I ask, glancing at Derek.

He just made a face and stayed quiet.

I frowned.

"Can you at least trust us for half a second?" complained Scott.

"All of us!" said Stiles.

They went on about our chemistry teacher, and some necklace that belonged to Allison. I just drove without saying another word.

The next morning I woke up feeling confident and strong, like I could go into battle with my head health high and come out of it with a smile still plastered on my face. Today was the day. I finally felt like I could tell the others my secret. I couldn't go another day, pretending to be something I'm not.

I walked down the stairs after texting Stiles, Scott and Derek, telling them to come and meet me in my guest house. Ben and Angela had already left for work so this was going to go easier than expected. I grabbed a bottle of water before walking out of the house, and into the guest house.

By the time they got there I had a bunch of candles spread around the room. All the curtains were closed and the lights were off, which made the room dark and mysterious.

"Kim, what's going on—"

"Why did you ask us to meet you here—"

"Are you alright—"

I sighed and turned around, looking at them before I started talking. "I asked you to come here because I have something important to tell you. I haven't been completely honest with you…"

Derek frowned, "What are you talking about?"

"Just promise me you'll hear me out before you get mad…" I pleaded.

I grabbed a cushion from the couch and cut the case, letting all the feathers fall on the floor. They made weird faces as I kneeled down in front of the pile of feathers. Holding my hand above the pile I start to concentrate on the spell. One feather starts to sway in the air along with my hand movement.

"What's going on?"

I looked up at them and grinned before holding both my and up, making more feathers levitate, letting them magically sway in the air. I let them all fall back to the ground, placing my hands in my lap as I concentrate, only using my mind this time to make all the feathers levitate.

Scott stood there with his open, "Wow…"

Stiles grinned goofily, "That's awesome!"

Derek took a step forward, "How can you do this?"

I bit my lip nervously, "Well, I'm a witch…" I giggled awkwardly as I made all the candles in the room lit up, lightening the once dark room up.
