Derek's temper had been becoming short at best throughout the two day which were approaching the full moon. So much so that Derek had been threatened by his own Uncle Peter with a belt whipping if he had chosen to not calm down. So Derek had of course calmed down for the moment eventually even though his short temper was something that was a work in progress.
Derek had today the day before the actual change which Derek was seriously dreading due to the immense lack of control that it would leave him with having. Had stormed out of the house in a huff due to something that which had been said and had caused the short-tempered teenager to get angry at.
Derek had forgotten that there had been an increase in hunter activity recently whenever he had himself chosen to stalk off into the woods. Derek's own uncle Peter had also forgotten that there had been a recent increase in hunter activity as well when his own nephew had stalked off angrily as well.
Then as Derek reached about the three mile marker out in the woods which was marked by a sign that the Hales had created, Derek suddenly felt an immense pain in his lower right leg. His ankle to be exact. Derek immediately knew that his right ankle was broken due to the fact that he both felt and even heard his own bone snap.
As Derek howled out in pain he secretly prayed and hoped that his Uncle peter would have heard him, and then reaching for his own phone he looked over to see it beyond his own grasp. Because of course he had forgotten to hold onto the measly thing in the course of his ankle breaking.
As Derek sat there for the next few minutes he felt himself getting sleepier and sleepier and then he realized why, wolfsbane.
It was not enough to kill him really, not even near enough to kill him, just enough to give Derek a good strong migraine and weakness of his own limbs. So without thinking or even pausing to think what may happen Derek suddenly for the first time in his life let out a yell.
Derek suddenly for the first time in his life felt utterly and completely helpless, so much so that after Derek had let out a yell, he felt a whimper come off of his own lips.
ABOUT 4 HOURS LATER
Of course Derek had been to far off from Peter to have been heard, and Peter who normally would have come looking for Derek after about thirty minutes to an hour after his disappearance, had not come yet. Most likely the main part of it would have been due to the fact that he thought that Derek would want to be left alone this close to the full moon, but right now this was the last thing that which Derek Hale wanted. Derek wanted to be found and to lay down in his own bed.
For one reason that it was nearing the darkness of the night because it was around about 8:00 and it was getting pretty dark, and Derek hoped that soon Peter would come looking for him, at least he hoped so. Then suddenly Derek heard a car and despite what beliefs he held yelled out to the passing car.
