A/N: Just a story I'm putting together, mostly for my own amusement. The story is going to be a Teen Wolf and Vampire Diaries crossover.
CHAPTER 3 || Lets Gallop Through The Woods
Tyler's POV
"Hey Scott!" I yelled out to the departing couple
They both visibly stilled when they heard his name being called out. They started whispering amongst themselves, but I could hear them.
"What do we do?" Scott asked
"Just act natural." The girl replied
"I need to talk to you for a minute." I said as I got behind them and they turned
As he started to speak I tried to trace his scent, it wasn't like the one earlier at all. In fact there wasn't anything off with it, it was fine.
"I'm sorry, but do I know you?" He asked with irritation in his voice
He was looking at me like there was something off with me?
"Tyler Lockwood." I said as I extended my hand
He hesitantly took it. I could feel his heartbeat speed up to an inhuman like speed as we made contact. The air was knocked out of his lungs through his nose in an instant as he froze. I was starting to get worried, I was supposed to be learning about him, but it seemed that he was figuring things about me when I was getting practically nothing. After a moment he replied
"It's nice to meet you?" He seemed to say in the form of a question
"Likewise." I replied
"We'd better get going." He quickly said as the bell rang
"Understandable." I said as they started walking towards the parking lot, "Hey guys!"
They both turned around slowly.
"The school is that way!" I yelled pointing behind me
"Thank you!" Scott yelled back as they continued towards the parking lot
As I ran through the woods I couldn't get my mind off that kid. The way he was visibly cautious of me. He knew, maybe not exactly. But he knew something was up. The one thing I couldn't explain was his heart beat rising so high and him appearing to not notice it. Any normal human would have.
I was trying to track the scent from the alleyway but so far almost an hour of running and I got nothing. I was getting really bored so I was thankful when I ran past a burned down house and heard some creaking wood. I stopped outside the house and walked up the staircase to the front door. The door made the loudest creaking sound ever as I pushed it open. I stepped into a room with a lot of doorways and a staircase leading up to the second floor. The first thing I noticed was the faint aroma of something strange. It was in a way like the scent back in the alleyway, but in another way completely different.
I turned to the left doorway in the direction I heard the sound from. The room appeared to be a living room of sorts and as I scanned it I found a discarded t shirt in the corner. I picked it up and found it to be wet. I took a sniff but quickly pulled the shirt from my face discovering it to be sweat. I knew that it couldn't have been taken off to long ago, the scent was too fresh. I dropped the shirt and went back to the foyer, there was a hole in the wall on the opposite side that I climbed through into some kind of dining room it appeared to be.
The room was pretty empty so I went back to the foyer and checked the last two remaining rooms to find them also empty. This time I headed up the stairs and quickened my pace when I heard a shuffling and then a loud creaking noise. By the time I reached the room it was empty with its window wide open. I looked out it and caught a guy with a good build wearing no shirt running through the forest at a very fast pace, he didn't stop or look back.
As I jumped out the window I took off after him. This had to be what I was looking for. No man runs at that speed let alone jumps from that height. I could see his figure quite a ways down, but as I started running he immediately left my line of sight. I picked up as much speed as I could but I couldn't find him. I decided that I would rely on his scent, so I followed the trail all the way out of the woods. When we reached the city it became impossible. The other scents just masked his too good. The strange thing was that his scent, like Scotts, didn't send any warnings off to me let alone smell any different from any other human. But back at the burnt down thing some might call a house the scent was anything but human. What was going on here?
Oh jeez, was calling Caroline back ever a mistakeā¦
"What you think just because you're a werewolf you can just pack your things up and take off without informing anyone?" She asked
"Pretty much." I replied with a sigh
"Did you just sigh? You know you had everyone worried when you weren't at school today, and then when we found out that your mom didn't even know where you were?"
"I'm sorry, something came up. It was kind of important." I said
"Where are you anyway?" She asked
"Beacon Hills, California." I replied
"CALIFORNIA!" She yelled and for the first time I heard others in the background
"Will you keep it down blondie?" I heard Damon say
"Are you at their house?" I asked
"Does it matter? Why are you in California!" She yelled but quitter than before
"The lacrosse player, Robert." I said
"The one that was killed?" She asked
"I just heard some suspicious things about it and I had to check them out." I said
"Oh so you thought, 'Hey! I'm just going to up and leave to California to investigate a mysterious death!' They have police and detectives in other states Tyler." She said
"What I heard made it sound like a vampire alright." I said
"Oh yeah that makes it better. 'Hey a vampire, you know the things that are faster and stronger than me. I'll go meet up with it and we'll have a coffee'."
"Yeah well turns out it's not a vampire." I said
"So you're coming home then." She said
"No because it's something else." I said
"Is it a werewolf?" She asked
"No, it's something else entirely."
"Well if you're not coming back, then I'm going there." She said
"No you're not." I heard Damon in the background followed by a small rustle
"I am." He said, clearly having taken her phone
Scotts POV
As soon as the parent teacher meetings were over and the cougar fiasco was over I went immediately to Derek's. I walked through the front door to be greeted by him coming down the stairs.
"What are you doing here Scott?" He asked
"I think I found the alpha." I replied
"Who is it?" He asked immediately turning serious
"A kid about my age. His name is Tyler Lockwood."
"What gave him away?" He asked
"We'll I can't tell for sure. But he smelt wrong. He gave me this odd feeling."
"We'll have to check it out, but we might have more problems." He said, "Someone came by my house earlier."
"More hunters?" I asked
"It couldn't have been human." He said
A/N: If anyone can review and get this quote right I'll put another chapter up within today-tomorrow. "So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be." Leave your thoughts on the chapter, and if you missed a review on another chapter make sure to head back for it.
