Chapter Two:
Scott is spread out onto an examination table. Dr. Deaton is doing his best to stop the seizure. The others are standing around as they try to help while Scott wails in horrible agony. The fire in his veins is intense. It's still unbearable. "I need to drain whatever's doing this out." Alan grabs a small bowl and a scalpel. He puts the bowl underneath Scott's arm and begins to cut through the flesh. "I need someone to hold him down." Isaac and Stiles holds Scott down while Deaton cuts the wound even deeper, making more blood seeps out. It takes the vet about fifteen minutes later the heal him, but Scott's bite wound hasn't. The large gaping hole between the right side of his neck and shoulder hasn't closed. However, black veins have risen over the bite mark, signaling that it won't heal properly. It's still infected by Dante's venom. Scott still lies there on the table, trying to get himself together.
"It's strange. Never have I heard of such a thing. Immortal werespiders?" Peter is confused. He's read every bestiary and has done so much research on the supernatural world. He has never heard or come across such a creature. Spiders give him the chills.
"I need to call Derek." Stiles grabs his cell phone out of his pocket and calls Derek. Lisabeth glances at him, scanning him with her green eyes. She looks away and stay near her pack mates. Meanwhile, Alan is examining Scott's infected bite wound.
"This werespider who bite you seems to have a tongue spar." He points out.
"A tongue what?" Wes asks in confusion.
"A tongue spar." Corey says. "There are some creatures that have two tongues. One is their normal tongue and the other is their tongue spar. A tongue spar is used to absorb blood faster. It's strong enough to even penetrate through bone and flesh with ease, and can extend to great lengths. The venom of this creature is shown to be highly toxic, especially to werewolves." He approaches Scott to examine the bite wound. "These creatures must have a few extra muscles in their jaws, allowing for a much stronger bite. It seems like the one who did this was really trying to take all the essence out of Scott's body." The others are impressed by his knowledge.
"Impressive. I'm Dr. Deaton." Dr. Deaton sheds a small smile.
"Corey. I know my stuff. I did my research after I was turned." Corey answers.
"I'm okay." Scott says.
"Scott you need to rest. When we were back there and you went after that spider guy, I could smell death on you. He almost killed you. You need to rest." Lydia states.
"She's right." Isaac says.
"I'll make some arrangements to bring a team here, so they can search and kill these creatures." Chris says. Allison is already there by Scott's side as he sits up slowly, groaning. She puts a hand on his chest.
"Isaac and I will escort you home." She tells him.
"I can't reach Derek. He's still not answering his phone." Stiles says.
"Stiles, Lydia, and Corey, do you think you can do some research on werespiders?" Deaton asks. They all nod. Just when they were getting over their fear of spiders, all hell breaks loose.

The Woods
Selena is searching for her baby brother, who she hasn't seen in over 2000 years. It makes her angry that Dante had his nest entomb him for thirty years. She follows the spiders as they lead her deep into the woods. There's no sight of Caleb until she catches a strong whiff his scent.
"Caleb?" Selena whispers to herself. She runs around, following the scent. That's when she stops. Her eyes widen at the very sight before her. From afar, Caleb's rotten, zombielike corpse is trapped on a twelve foot long and twelve foot wide spider web. There are spiders crawling all over his body. Tears fall freely from Selena's eyes as they become pitch black. The spiders scatter away, disappearing from the sight. She goes over to take Caleb down from the wed, easily breaking through it. She takes the dagger out of his chest. "Please don't die." She sobs heartbreakingly.
"I thought you wouldn't be this stupid." Dante's voice booms. Selena turns to see him. She sits her baby brother beside a tree and reveals antique silver dagger. It's been laced with clematis and lupitine.
"Dante, you homicidal douche bag." Selena growls deeply. Dante chuckles.
"My little sister. You're still the same."
"I haven't been the same since you slaughtered our entire family. And the only reason why I am going to rip you open and play hot potato with your organs is because I made a promise to our mother. You deserve to burn just our father." Selena holds her ground as tears keep falling. Dante isn't smiling anymore. "Why are you doing this? If you get a hold of that pendant, this world will be destroyed."
"I need it so I can make things right!" Dante snarls.
"Resurrecting our father isn't right! He never cared about us!" Selena snarls back.
"He gave us everything." Dante says.
"HE WAS A PSYCHO EGYPTIAN WARLORD WHO WOULD BATH HIMSELF IN HUMAN BLOOD! Our father was mad. He became insane with thirst for blood and hunger for their flesh!"
"Enough talking. Give me your blood or I will end your life."
"I'm the same age of you, Dante. I am just as powerful." The veins in Selena's face protrude as her eyes gleam the same sinister dark red like earlier. His fangs and claws retract. Dante transforms as well. They suddenly stop when they both hear a bone crunching sound. They look down at Caleb's body. His eyes flashes open, but he cannot move anything else. That's when a twenty foot tall spider leg sprouts out of his right shoulder. Selena moves away from him. But before Dante can move away, the spider leg impales him through his chest and into a tree. Dante roars out. He grabs the leg and breaks it. Selena hurries to grab Caleb and run away. Dante takes the large piece of Caleb's spider leg out of his chest. The wound heals in mere seconds. And now, he's pissed.

Country House
Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom
The estate is very beautiful as the sun shines bright from the blue skies. Everything is so warm and peaceful. Staring out of a living room window is Derek. He has a glass of old scotch, taking tiny sips. For the past four months, he's been getting over Jennifer. Derek is still angry with himself because he messed everything up. However, he's been coping and learning what it means to be a werewolf thanks to the oracles.
Approaching Derek is a small wolf cub. Derek looks down as the wolf snuggles up against his leg. He sits his drink on a table and scoops the cub in his arms. He pets the wolf as it purrs against him. Behind him is his godmother, Jill. She's almost six foot tall with long dark hair, creamy pale, flawless skin, and gleaming purple eyes. She's gorgeous like an angel. Jill smiles to see Derek snuggling the wolf cub.
"He likes you, you know." She says.
"I know. Have you seen Cora?"
"She's with the Oracles. Your friends have been calling you. It seems like they're in danger." Jill says.
"They're always in danger." Derek replies.
"I can sense something wrong. You're not sure if you want to go back."
"I'm not sure. That place..." Derek sighs deeply. "It caused me too much pain. My family's gone, everything has gone to hell, and I'm the one who has to handle all the mess. I'm no longer an alpha. I failed. I disappointed my sister. I failed them all."
"Derek, you have to let go of all that pain. Remember what I taught you?" Jill places a hand on his shoulder in comfort. "Life is all about suffering. Our suffering makes us stronger. We all make mistakes that we have to learn from. Everyone has baggage, Derek." They pause as the words sink in. Jill goes over to face him. "Being an alpha isn't all about power. Pack is family. They are your family." She says as the sunlight brightens her purple eyes. Derek has to think about it. He's not sure if he wants to go back even though she's right. Jill and the other Oracles have said that he can be an alpha again because the spark is still there. If he wants to be an alpha again, he has to let go because life is about love and sacrifice. Derek closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. He hopes he can make things right.

Night
Two Story House
Beacon Hills Suburbs
A family of four has been killed. The father is dead by the stairs, the mother is lying dead on the couch, their son is dead in his bedroom on the floor while his older sister is lying dead in the kitchen. There's blood everywhere. The bodies have been torn apart and ravished. It's gruesome and distrubing. Feeding on the mother is another werespider named Claudia. She's model beautiful with long bronze hair, green eyes, pale skin, and flawless beautiful features. Entering inside the living room is Dante. He stares at Claudia and rolls his eyes before speaking.
"Slow down, love. You're going to get a tummy ache."
"Did your mother ever tell you that it was dangerous to mess with a female werespider while she's feeding?" Claudia stands up with blood covering half her face. She retracts her fangs into her gums. Dante smiles as he approaches her.
"Tell me something. Where were you when my sister and my uncle entombed me?"
"I was in England trying to find my sister." Claudia confesses. "Besides, your sister and your uncle are twice my age and would have me killed. I got my revenge by entombing your baby brother, who is now in town and is probably pissed off beyond reason. Why did you summon me anyway?"
"I missed you." Dante loves how she stands her ground.
"I think you just want to use me to get to Caleb." Claudia is not dumb.
"Come on, love. That was centuries ago." Dante shoves her against the wall and presses his body harder into hers. "I really missed you." The couple kiss. Claudia parts her lips to allow Dante's tongue seep into her throat. The kiss is warm and affectionate. Claudia moans against her lips. Dante slips his mouth onto her neck. His fangs scrape against her skin before he bites down. He starts feeding off her blood. Soon, Dante pulls back and smiles at her. Claudia's pupils are dialated. "Beautiful."

The Woods
Selena is caressing Caleb in her arms. He's in bad shape and not responding. She bites her wrist, intending to feed him. She puts the torn flesh onto Caleb's lips. He's still not responding. "Come on. Please. You have to feed." A moment later, Caleb begins feeding. The blood is delicious. Being starved and buried alive for twenty years is tiring and could almost kill a werespider.
Abruptly, Caleb begins to cough up all the blood on the floor. This scares Selena as she backs away just a couple of inches. The blood begins to turn into black mucus. There's a sharp pain in Caleb's stomach. He drops the floor having a violent seizure. He begins foaming from the mouth as his eyes, ears, and nose bleed. Selena is already at his side.
"Caleb? Caleb?!" She gathers him in her arms. Caleb is dying as the seizure never ends. Selena starts to cry. "No! Caleb please! Oh my God. No baby. NO!" Something is horrible wrong as his eyes roll in the back of his eyes. Foam continuously seep from his mouth. "Baby no!"
