Here's the next chapter. I am still doing more mythos expanding. I hope you guys enjoy it
"Um, mom, what are you doing home, don't you have work?" Scott asked hesitantly, shocked at his mother standing in the doorway.
"The sheriff got a call about strange lights from the house, not enough for him to send an officer, so he called me. Now, would you mind telling me what you've been up to, and is that blood on the floor?" Melissa responded with, drawing everyone's attention to the floor, which is now adorned with Alison and Scott's blood, splayed out in a circle, with 6 lines converging together in the middle.
Lydia knelt down and ran her hand over the symbol. "It's fused into the wood," she said.
"What the hell were you guys doing that fused blood into the wood?" Melissa asked.
"A Bonding Ritual," Lydia replied with.
"A What!? What have you guys gotten into," Melissa stated.
"I think it's time to tell her, Scott. And when I say that, I mean about everything that's going on," Lydia told her Alpha.
Scott let out a sigh before turning to his mother. "What I'm about to tell you is unbelievable, but also is completely true," Scott prefaced his story with, getting a look of scrutiny from his mother. "I'm a werewolf."
The statement sat there, receiving a disbelieving look from his mother. "You should just show her Scott," Stiles yells out.
Scott nods, transforming into his werewolf visage. He heard a gasp from his mother. After making sure his mother got a good look, Scott reverted back to his normal face. "When did this happen?"
"The night before the school year started," Scott replied.
"So, what does this have to do with the strange lights?" Melissa asked.
"I'll take it from here," Lydia opened with, "as I said before, we were doing a bonding ritual, specifically designating the second alpha of the pack, or to put it in non-werewolf terms, marrying the boss to his love, thus marking them as equal."
"You got married!?" Melissa yelled.
"Well, sort of," Scott replied before Lydia cut him off.
"Don't sugar coat it Scott, you got married. So, Melissa, may I introduce you daughter in law in every respect except for actual law, Alison McCall."
"It's nice to have you join the family, though what do you mean not by law," Melissa responded.
"Well, the way we did it, anyone within the supernatural community will recognize it, as that is where we need it to be recognized right now, but we haven't gone through the legal proceedings to get them officially married. Before you ask, we need it recognized in the supernatural world because Alison parents are werewolf hunters, and they do have a code. With this, they can't do anything to force Alison to go home without breaking their code, which if they do, we are prepared to report them to the other Hunter families," Lydia explained in one fail swoop.
Melissa moved into the room, sitting down on the bed. "That's a lot to take in. I'm guessing that Alison needs a place to stay, from your story."
"Yeah, I can stay with Lydia for the next couple days till her mother gets back, but after that I'm going to need to find a place," Alison said.
"Well, you can stay here," Melissa replied. "Though I would prefer if you guys didn't do anything while I am around."
"Thank you very much Melissa," Alison said, giving Ms. McCall a hug.
"Now, there are some things that I need to discuss with my pack, and don't you need to be at work?" Scott told his mother.
"Yes, I do. Take care, and be careful," Melissa said, gathering her stuff and heading out of the house.
"So, Alison is now my Alpha female. What's next?" Scott asked Lydia.
"Well, not tonight, but soon we need to bring Stiles officially into the pack with the ritual. We also need to make things clear to both the Argents and the Hale pack that we are not to be messed with. We also need to take care of the Kamina, who also happens to be Jackson. I think that about sums up what's we need to take care of, well, then there's cleaning your floor," Lydia replied with.
"Actually, I think we could use it as a pack symbol," Alison piped up with, drawing confused looks from everyone. "Derek has the triskelion, which sort of symbols his back, and then every hunter family has a symbol that defines them. We could use this as a symbol to define our pack."
"I think that is a good idea to use this as a symbol, but I still need to clean the floor," Scott replied.
"Well, if the blood is actually fused into the wood like Lydia theorized, then you won't be able to simply clean the blood out of the wood, you would have to replace to wood itself," Stiles informed the group.
"I'll talk with my mom about it once she gets back from work. Right now, I think our priority should be figuring out as much about the Kamina as we can. We also need to run interference between Derek and Jackson as much as possible," Scott stated.
"I'll go through all the books Alison brought with her, see if I can find anything. I would also like to see if we can figure out what I am," Lydia told the group.
"Of course Lydia," Stiles replied, "Would you mind if I joined you in going through those books."
"Yeah, here, you can go back through the ones I've already read, to see if I missed anything. We should also see what other books on the supernatural we can get our hands on. Alison, what other hunter families do you know of, since you threatened reporting your parents to one of the other families," Lydia said.
"Well, there are the Calaveras in Mexico, who are very strict about the code, but I don't know how well they would react to my switching sides. The one I was thinking of going to are the Vastils in Seattle," Alison stated.
"Why would a major hunter family be in Seattle?" Lydia asked.
"Even though vampires are a myth, there are still a bunch of supernatural species who are weaker in direct sunlight, so a place that is near constant overcast is perfect for them," Alison said.
"What would make this family different from other hunter families?" Stiles asked.
"They are more about protecting people who don't know about the supernatural than destroying the supernatural. They have been known to work with good intentioned supernatural in order to save people. I figure I would go to them if my parents pushed the boundary, and go to the Calaveras if things got dire," Alison told the group.
There you go guys, I have no idea what next chapter will be, so it may be a bit before it comes out. Tell me what you thought of this chapter though.
