A/N—Thank you all so much for your reviews! I really appreciate them. I think I will be able to get a chapter out every other week or so.
Chapter 2: Packing Up
Scott kissed her softly on the lips and smiled. "Good, because if you said no I would have taken you anyway." he smirked. Their eyes were locked on each other's until Stiles couldn't take it any longer and she burst into laughter. Scott was gripping her arms looking on her amused as she hung her head, shaken with laughter from the tension in the room. Well, I have always said I was here for comedic relief, she thought.
Lifting her head up she smiled, "Where exactly is it I agreed to go because I refuse to go anywhere with rotting corpses or torch lit sewers or underground caves. Wait. Will there be rotting corpses? And in all actuality I really wouldn't mind if it was Erica, because she was kind-of a bitch. But if I found Boyd I would be sad because he was tolerable...ish." She looked up from her ADD induce tirade to see Scott grinning at her. "And I'm guessing I said all of that out loud… shit." She blushed sheepishly.
"Do you need anything before we go?" Scott questioned
"Well I need to get all of my magic-ish stuff… also how long will we be gone?" She said.
"Well, Duke said you most likely would not be returning, so you should grab all of your stuff." Scott said
"Shit, okay my dad will understand. I already told him all about this magical shit and about your wolfey-ness after he woke me up from one of my night-mares. I think I should leave him a note though. Ooh, I also want to leave a protective enchantment on the house. It shouldn't take me more than like 5 minutes. Will you grab some clothes and stuff for me while I do that?" She proclaimed, and then walked out of the room.
Scott chuckled and started grabbing her clothes and toiletries he knew she would need. He made sure to pack her laptop and its charger as well as her phone and charger. Downstairs, Stiles was keying herself into her lair. She pricked her finger with her pocketknife and wiped the drop of blood on the door. It creaked open and she skipped in.
Inside she clasped her hands together, and whispered "Light", then opened them and thrust them outwards. Instantly the room flooded with bright light. She winced and covered her eyes. "Might have overpowered that one... oops." She giggled. Shaking her head to clear it, she observed the room.
She had magically expanded it so it was about as large as her high school auditorium. The red walls were covered with runes, painted on with black paint. Some were for protection and others to expand the room, some for the containment of her magical discharge, and others for permanence. The entirety of the room was lined with metal tables, on which were her various weapons, books, herbs, potions, and experiments. The center of the room was open with nothing covering it but a large black rug, what she used it to exercise, train, and practice fighting, magical and not.
Clasping her hands again, she whispered "Pack" and thrust her hands outward. All of the items in the room flew into what looked like a vortex, there was a flash of light then all that remained in the room was the small black over-the-shoulder leather bag on the floor. The runes stayed on the walls, but she waved her hand and they disappeared leaving her standing a closet. She picked up the bag and walked out of the room, but not before extinguishing the light.
Smiling to herself, she walked out and towards the front door where Scott was waiting for her. Stopping she reached into her magic bag she had slung around her shoulder and pulled out her Metal Baton, carved with runes of power, protection, and magic.
"Stiles, what are you-"Scott asked
"SHH. I'm focusing. Let me concentrate." Stiles interrupted snappishly. She gripped it with both of her hands, muttering under her breath unintelligibly while her eyes slowly turned faded to black. Her wand started glowing red at the tip and the light started getting brighter and bigger until it exploded and the walls of her house were burned with runes that were bright red.
She blinked, her eyes fading back to light brown, the runes on the walls disappearing, and the light of her wand fading.
Nodding to herself, she smiled and looked around, putting her wand back in her bag. She looked up laughing at Scott's dumbfounded face. "Let me writ my dad a quick note and we can go." She giggled.
He could only nod mutely; still stunned at the power his best friend/ girlfriend/ FWB had shown. Now he knew what Deucalion was talking about. Stiles was extremely powerful.
She flounced back into the room, but stopped when she noticed al of the bags of her stuff that Scott had packed for her. Cuppings her hands, she whispered "Shrink." And the bags shrunk to the size of limes. Smirking, she picked them up and put them in the pocket of her bright red sweatshirt.
"I knew there was a reason I loved you." Scott said; Picking her up bridal-style, and running out of the door.
A/N- Thanks for reading. Please review! I love them!
