Welcome to the new chapter! I am currently on holidays so I will be updating a lot more often. We are now picking up the story line of the show. Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Teen Wolf I only own my oc's and any new plot lines I introduce.
"Actually one thing, what the hell is going on?" Everyone whirled around in shock and stared at me with wide eyes.
"Well. I'm waiting?" I demanded. Scott was the first one to speak. "Uh..w-we will explain everything, just not here." He stated signalling indoors. We all walked inside and went to a bedroom to talk privately.
Flash forward half an hour later and they had explained everything. I sighed. "Okay got it." I said not really shocked. Learning spells you get used to the different types of supernatural beings. "And you're not freaking out?" Stiles asked me. I just shook my head. "Uh no actually. B-but I need to tell you something. Well more like show you something." I said. I got everyone to sit in a circle on the floor. I grabbed a pillow off the bed and sat in the only free space between Stiles and Isaac.
"Okay here goes." I said taking a deep breath. I ripped open the pillow and spilled the feathers out. Lydia gave me a look as to say why the hell are you ripping my pillows? "Okay so there is no a/c on? No windows open?" I asked checking. "Nope all good." Lydia responded.
I took a deep breath and hovered my hands over the feathers. "Well here goes nothing." I muttered. I began to concentrate and a feather began to float, then another and another until they were all floating. I smiled to myself. I looked up and saw everyone looking at me impressed. "Surprise." I said with a smile on my face.

"So you actually never explained what the ice baths were about" I said. It was currently the next morning and I was currently at a café with Lydia, Stiles and Scott. I noticed Lydia would get closer to Stiles every now and then. It shouldn't have bugged me but for some reason it did. We were hidden away in a little corner booth talking about everything. Everyone was silent. "Well it's a long story..." Scott began.
About fifteen minutes later Scott finished filling me in on what happened. I squeezed both Stiles and Scott's arms. "I'm so sorry guys, can I help? I really want to help." I said giving them a sympathetic smile. "Even if it is something as small as setting up the baths. But one thing, please, please be careful, I care about you guys too much to lose you. Tell Allison that to if you see her before I do." They muttered small thank-yous. Clearly not wanting to talk about it anymore we moved on to different topics.

Animal Clinic
I arrived at the clinic before anyone else to help set up the baths. I meant it when I told them I wanted to help. It wasn't long before everyone arrived whilst I was pouring the last of the ice in the baths. We were all standing around beginning to talk about what was going to go down.
"All right. What did you bring?" Deaton asked addressing the three of them. Stiles spoke up first. "Um, I got my dad's badge. Jennifer kind of crushed it in her hand, so I tried hammering it out a bit. Still doesn't look great." He held up the slightly crushed badge in his hand showing it to Deaton. "Well, it doesn't need to look good if it has meaning." Deaton explained. He then turned to Allison. "Is that an actual silver bullet?" Allison turned it over in her hand. "My dad made it. It's kind of a ceremonial thing. When one of us finishes learning all the skills to be a hunter, we forge a silver bullet as a testament to the code." She explained to us. Deaton then turned to Scott. "Scott?" Scott held up a watch. "My dad got my mom this watch when she first got hired at the hospital. She used to say it was the only thing in their marriage that ever worked." He said cracking a small smile at the joke.
"Okay, the three of you will get in. Each of us will hold you down until you're essentially...Well, dead." We all tense up at the word. "But it's not just someone to hold you under. It needs to be someone who can pull you back, someone that has a strong connection to you, a kind of emotional tether." He explained. I knew I wouldn't be a part of that now, I have only been here a week and couldn't possibly be close enough to anyone yet. Lydia began to move towards Allison but before she could reach her. Deaton stopped her. "Lydia... you go with Stiles." Again I felt that small tug but just brushed it off as nerves for everyone. "Are you sure? I mean, Scott and I both have to go under." Alison asked, referring to the close bond that she and Scott share. He looked over to her. "It's okay." He reassured her.
The three of them got ready for the bath. We all let out a breath we hadn't even realised we were holding. All three of them were shivering as they went into the baths. Isaac walked towards Allison, clearly he would be her tether. Scott did not look too happy at that. Before they went under Stiles said "By the way, if I don't make it back and you do, you should probably know something. Your dad's in town." And with that they went under.
~TIME SKIP ~
Sixteen hours had passed and we were all getting anxious about when they would wake up. Suddenly they all awoke with a gasp. They quickly got out of the bath and we wrapped them all in towels. Scott was the first to speak. "I saw it. I know where it is." "We passed it. There's—there's a stump, this huge tree." Stiles finished. "Well it's not huge anymore. It was cut down. But it's still big, though, very big." He continued in between breaths. "It was the night we were looking for the body." The night Scott got turned, I remember them telling me about it. "Yeah the same night you were bit by Peter."
Allison finally spoke for the first time in a while. "I was there too, in the car with my mother. We almost hit someone." Scott turned to her. "It was me. You almost hit me." Silence fell over the room. Until Scott finally broke it. "We can find it?" "Are you sure?" I asked knowing full well how long they were under for. "You guys were out a long time." Isaac agreed with me. I nodded at his statement. "The three of them turned to us. "How long is a long time?" Stiles asked me. I took a breath. "16 hours."
"We've been in the water for 16 hours?" Scott exclaimed shocked. I just nodded as Deaton said "And the full moon rises in less than four."
Scott had brought up his deal with Deucalion. Stiles shot up. "No, dude, you are not going back with them." Scott tried to reason with him. "I made a deal with Deucalion." And we all know Scott doesn't go back on his deals, I have been here a week and I already knew that. "Does anyone else think that sounds a lot like a deal with the devil?" Stiles asked looking around. I nodded agreeing. "Stiles does have a point, are you sure Scott?" Isaac spoke up "Why does it matter?"
"Because I still don't think that we can beat Jennifer without their help." Scott attempted to reason with us. "He trusts you more than anyone. Tell him he's wrong" Allison said turning to Deaton. "I'm not so sure he is." Deaton began, standing up for Scott. "Circumstances like this sometimes require that you align yourself with people you'd normally consider enemies." He finished off.
"So we're gonna trust him, the guy that calls himself death, destroyer of Worlds? We're gonna trust that guy?" Isaac argued. I really didn't know what to say clearly they all knew more about this than me, so I didn't but in. "I wouldn't trust him no, but you could use him to your advantage. Deucalion may be the enemy, but he could also be the bait." Scott defended. He had a point but I was still strongly against this.
It was silent for a moment when we heard a door creak and a number of things clatter to the floor. A blonde walked in who I had never met before. "I'm looking for Lydia." He began looking around the room, when his eyes caught me he said, "Who the hell is that?" I just gave a small wave and said "Isabel, new girl. And you are?" If I had a dollar for all the times I said that this week I would be rich. "His name is Ethan." Lydia piped up. "What do you want?" She said turning towards Ethan. "I need your help." He said. "With what?" "Stopping my brother and Kali...from killing Derek." My eyes widened when Ethan said that.
~TIME SKIP ~
We arrived at Allison's house to grab something for the boys to track them down. Scott was currently on the phone to Stiles helping him pick what to grab. "Just grab anything? Stiles, I'm not smelling your dad's boxers. Socks? Okay I'll smell the socks." I cracked a smile as Allison unlocked the door and we all walked in. "What about me?" Isaac asked. "See what you can find in my dad's closet. Anything with the strongest scent." Allison directed him. "And me?" I said as we turned a corner. Before Allison could answer someone spoke up from the couch.
"Quite an arsenal your father's got here, young lady. Scott." He said addressing the first part to Allison and the last to Scott. So this must be Scott's dad that Stiles was talking about. "What are you doing here?" Scott questioned his father. "Following one of the only leads I have. Now, since I don't know where you've been, why don't you have a seat, and we can talk? You too, Isaac." He said as Isaac tried to sneak off. And with that line we were stuck in a conversation with Scott's dad. I tuned out but began to listen again when I heard Agent Mccall say "I'm really hoping to avoid the embarrassment of dragging my own son into an interrogation room. Really hoping. I'm not gonna lie. I'm more than a little disturbed, not only by the number of missing parents, but the fact that it's Stiles's father, your father and your mother." He addressed the last part to Allison and then Scott.
"Mine are both dead." Isaac piped up. "Save the clichéd teenage apathy for your high school teachers." Scott's dad began. Rude. "The three of you know more than you're saying, and I'm fully willing to keep you here all night if I have to." He finished. Now I get why everyone doesn't like him. We need to get out of here. Maybe I can go to the bathroom and climb out a window or something.
"You can't keep us here." Scott began. "Not without some kind of warrant." Allison finished. I agreed saying "Exactly, it's against the law." He did not take long to fight back "I've got a desk full of probable cause." He said. "My father is a highly respected private security consultant and federally licensed firearms dealer. That means her has to own a few weapons. Like this 175-pound draw tactical crossbow or this carbon steel marine combat knife, 50ae desert eagle. Hmmm. Smoke grenade with pull ring igniter." Allison said grabbing it and pulling the igniter. Woo go Allison.
"Run!" I yelled as we were all coughing we ran out the door. "Wait! Scott, wait!" His father yelled but it was too late.
When we had finally escaped we were on our way to meet up with Deucalion, much to my displeasure. "Are you okay?" Allison asked Scott. He was clearly affected by the confrontation with his dad. "I didn't know what to say to him. I couldn't come up with anything, but what you did, that was awesome." He replied to her. "Scott it's okay, you don't need to justify yourself to him." I said soothingly.
"I still haven't gotten anything from Stiles—you?" He addressed the group. I got my phone out of my pocket and had no notifications. "Nothing." We all said. "Well, we can't wait for him. Come on." Isaac said taking charge and we all walked towards Deucalion. I tuned out for most of their conversation, banter that wasn't important to me right now, we needed to save their parents. Scott turned towards us and I listened up. "Okay, get Stiles, and then get to the root cellar, okay? We'll keep Jennifer away long enough for you to get them out of there." Scott explained. "How are you going to do that?" I questioned. "I have a plan."
Isaac, Allison and I began to try and find the nemeton using Allison directions from what she saw. "Are you sure we're going the right direction?" Isaac asked. I nodded agreeing with him "These all look like regular trees to me." I said looking around lost. "I know we're near it. You think you can pick up a scent?" She directed the last part to Isaac. "I'm trying, but I c—I hear something. It's an—it's an emitter. It's one of your dad's." He responded. "Are you sure?" Allison asked. "Has to be. Come on."
We soon found the parents and Isaac called Allison over as we walked in. "Allison!" She walked over and saw her dad. "Oh, my god. Thank god!" Allison ran over and hugged her dad. "You found us." He said while embracing his daughter. "Where's Stiles? Where's my son?" Stiles dad spoke up. "And Scott?" His mother added. "They're coming, I promise you." I said. "They're on their way to help." Isaac finished. "Okay"
All of a sudden it began to crumble. "Hurry! Watch out!" Isaac yelled. A chorus of screams followed including mine. "Come on, let's get out of here." Allison's dad said. "It's blocked. What do you see? Anything? Isaac asked. He began using his strength to hold up the roof. We was starting to struggle. "I'll help." I said sitting in the middle of the room. The parents just looked at me like I was nuts. "How is that helping?" Stiles dad asked. "Trust me." I said closing my eyes. I put my palms up to the roof and began chanting trying to lighten the load on Isaac. More cracking sounded through the room. "Look out!" Chris yelled while Allison gasped. "Isaac!" She called out.
I could feel my nose begin to bleed and my magic weakening, the load was getting heavier on Isaac as my magic was working less and less. "I can't do it. I can't hold it. I can't hold it. It's too much." Isaac said groaning. "I'm sorry I'm trying" I muttered going back to my chanting
"It's too heavy, Isabel you're bleed." Allison warned us. "I'm fine." I said faintly and continued going. Right when I felt like I was going to pass out Stiles ran in with a bat and help held up the roof. "I always said aluminium was better than wood." The sheriff said. That was the last thing I heard before the world went black.
When I came to everyone was looking worriedly at me and I was propped up against a wall. "Hey, what happened?" I asked groggily. I could still feel some blood on my face. I brought my hand up to my face and attempted to get rid of it. "You passed out trying to keep the roof up with Isaac." Stiles explained to me. I sighed leaning my head against the wall. "We're all good?" I asked him. "Yeah." He reassured me. I offered a small smile glad we are all okay.
Then we heard someone walking towards us. "Scott?" Stiles called out. It wasn't long before we got a reply. "Hey, are you okay?" He sounded like he was at the entrance. "Yeah, were okay. We're all okay." He assured him. "How about you are you okay?" Stiles asked Scott. "Sort of." He replied. "You think you can come get us?" Stiles questioned him. "Yeah, of course." He responded. "Great, okay. Um, uh, bring a ladder." Stiles joked causing us all to laugh.
We had finally gotten out of the ground but I was still a little weak. I began to walk but my legs quickly gave out thankfully Stiles was near me and helped me up and let me lean on him. I gave him a small smile and said, "Thanks, still feeling a little weak."
"Hey, no worries! And it's you I should be thanking you helped save my dad." He responded. "I'm always here for you guys." I reassured.
And with that Stiles helped me get home and headed off to his. Luckily my family was asleep so I did not need to explain anything to them. I headed to bed and dozed off hoping I would feel better tomorrow.
That's the chapter! Hope you enjoyed it! I will be updating again within the next few days!
