Killing the Past
I opened my eyes and found myself in a white room, all depressing. I looked around seeing I was alone. The door opened and I could see someone walk in. "Ah, good to see you awake," Austin smiled, sitting on the bed.
"Where…where am I?" I groaned as he smiled evilly at me.
"You're mom took you into the hospital. They found the wolfsbane I placed in your system, but of course your mom doesn't know I did it," he smiled.
"I swear I'll kill you," I groaned in exhaustion.
"Not gonna happen," he smacked my cheek.
"Fine, I'll tell my mo-" He grabbed my cheeks and squeezed my mouth shut.
"You tell your mom and I swear Justin, your little fiancé is dead," he smiled as I could feel my insides burning with anger and pain.
"You wouldn't dare," I seethe with pure anger.
"I would, I will spill all her blood if you say one word." The door opened and Mrs. McCall walked in.
"Justin, you're awake," she smiled walking over. "Um…right now, visiting hours are closed so can you come back in two hours?" she turned to my cousin as he nodded and left. "So how did you get the poison in your system?" she asked me as I saw my cousin looking through the door.
"Um…I think I accidentally ate the flower."
"Why would you do such a thing," she snapped making me feel stupid "You could have killed yourself."
"It was a total accident, I thought it was that edible flower they put on the side of dishes," I smiled as she sat on my bed. "Mrs. McCall, does anyone else know I'm here?" I asked in total embarrassment.
"You mean, Stiles and Scott, yes they know, but I haven't told them what's wrong," she smiled as I sighed.
"And Aideen?"
"No, she hasn't shown up at all, I don't think she knows at all," she smiled thinking it was a good thing when I started to groan and held my stomach. "Ok, you go back to sleep and you should be able to go home tonight, if you rest," she smiled as I rested my head back on the pillow and fell asleep.
"Really Justin, you couldn't do it," Austin smiled as I held him by the throat.
"You threatened to take everything away from me, of course I can do this," I snapped as my claws grew out.
"Justin, stop," I heard Aideen call out. I looked over and found her holding her gun up.
"Aideen, this is my battle, we agreed the stronger would…"
"Shut up," she snapped as I looked back at Austin who was smiling. I looked back to Aideen and found the gun aimed at me. "You lied to me, my father was right, you tricked me," she snapped as a tear fell from her eye.
"What are you talking about?" I asked as I as Austin placed a cloth in my hand. He was framing me right in front of my own fiancé. "I would never, I liked your sister."
"Then why would you kill her?"
"Aideen, he is the one wronging you," I snapped strengthening my grip on my cousin's throat.
"Let him go, Justin." I looked at her confused but it was too late I knew what I had decided. I heard the gun go off and a sudden pain in my heart.
I gasped and sat up and found someone leaning on the wall in front of my bed. "It's the wolfsbane," Derek said calmly walking over to me.
"What are you talking about?" I asked trying to slow my heart rate down.
"You dreamed probably about Aideen or someone close to you killing you, right?"
"How…how did you know?"
"Please Justin, it happened to me when Laura placed some in my system. We were kids and she thought it would have been a funny prank."
"Please Derek I wasn't…"
"Admit it," he snapped as I sighed and looked away.
"Aideen shot me."
"Well that's the least of our problems; your cousin has her."
"What do you mean?" I asked sitting up.
"I mean he came and took her away and I have no clue where she is, but since you're so close to her you know her scent better than any of us," he sighed as I climbed out of bed.
"Justin, get back in bed," Mrs. McCall snapped running in the room.
"No, I need to go find…"
"Justin, listen to me, this is for your health now get back in bed."
"Mrs. McCall, I feel fine, please my fiancé is in a lot of trouble right now," I snapped as she sighed and hugged me.
"Fine, but if anything feels out of place please come to my house," she cooed before Derek and I ran out of the hospital. Stiles' jeep and Jackson's Porsche were waiting outside while I jumped in the jeep. Scott sat in the back having the same worried look on his face than what I was feeling.
"You ok?" Stiles asked as I looked at him to hit the gas and he did. I closed my eyes and focused on getting her scent and even with the windows down I couldn't find anything that matched Aideen's. "Got anything?" Stiles asked a little worried.
"Really Stiles? Head over to the Argent's maybe Chris will know where she is," I sighed as we went immediately. We pulled into the driveway and I started slamming on the door as Mrs. Argent opened it I got a weird glance from her. "Hi, question, is Mr. Argent home?" I smiled as she let me in without saying a word.
"Justin, what are you doing here?" he asked in a sort of unwelcomed tone and I hugged him, I have no clue what powered me to do so. "Is everything alright?" he asked a little gentler.
"We can't find Aideen," I sighed as his face grew with a mixture of sorrow and anger.
"I knew it, I knew you and her was a bad idea," he snapped backing me up until I fell on the couch.
"Sir, it wasn't me, I think it was…" I stopped in horror remembering the words my cousin told me.
"Who?"
"I-I don't know," I sighed as he placed his hands on his head. "We have been looking all over for her and I can't even pick up a scent."
"Have you guys reported missing persons?"
"No, not yet, it hasn't been twenty four hours since Scott told me."
"When was the last time you saw her?"
"A few nights ago, I was in the hospital the other night."
"For what?"
"I can't tell," I sighed getting up. "Are you going to help us or not?" I asked as I could feel my heart rate picking.
"Of course we will," Allison snapped walking toward me. She hugged me and grabbed her coat from the couch. "What are we waiting for," she snapped as the two of us followed her out of the house.
"Allison, you go with Stiles and Scott, Mr. Argent you follow them and I'll ride with Jackson," I took control as the two of them nodded and ran to their cars, it kind of felt good to be in control and made me kind of wish I took my dad's alpha ability. I ran to the car and found Derek gone.
"Where is he?" I asked as Jackson looked at me.
"He said that we needed to split up and took off running," he rolled his eyes as I smiled.
"I'll be right back." I ran to Stiles Jeep and knocked on the glass. "We're splitting up, we'll get further distance." I didn't even let him respond before I ran to Mr. Argent's SUV and told him the same thing. Soon enough it was a wild goose chase and all of us had gone our separate ways.
