… … …
Derek stared hard at her before turning to Scott and Isaac. "Get him inside."
They complied, Chris driving the SUV and following Derek into one of the abandoned warehouses. Cat followed on foot beside Derek.
"He came to us for help and he gave Erica and Boyd a chance to escape."
"They're not coming back." Derek snapped, his scowl firmly in place.
"I beg to differ." Cat coolly replied as the car was parked and the guys got out bringing Jackson out of the trunk.
"Where are they?" Scott demanded to know.
Derek glanced around in confusion. "Who?"
"Peter and Lydia?"
Derek ignored him as he moved towards the body bag, Cat and Chris both raising their guns and aiming it at Jackson.
"Whoa." Scott cried. "Hold on a second, you said you can save him."
"we're past that." Derek said as he unzipped the bag.
"What- what about-"
Derek looked up to glare at him. "Think about it Scott, Gerard controls him now, alright? He's turned Jackson into his own personal guard dog. And he's set all of this in motion so Jackson can get even bigger and more powerful."
"No." Chris whispered, shaking his head. "No, he wouldn't do that. If Jackson's a dog, he's turning rabid and my father wouldn't let a rabid dog live."
"Of course not."
Everyone turned to the new voice, their eyes widening at seeing Gerard there, Isaac pushed Cat behind him as she stared at him in shock.
"Anything that dangerous." He turned to stare at Scott. "That out of control is better off dead."
Cat didn't believe him for a minute and moved her arm to aim her gun at Gerard. Derek let his hand turn into claws, lifting it to deliver a killing blow to Jackson but before he could, Jackson's hand shot out, his claws digging into Derek's chest as his eyes opened and he slowly sat up, lifting Derek completely off the ground. Cat softly swore, swinging her arm back around to aim the gun at Jackson, just as Chris raised his gun again.
Jackson stood up, his face half of the kanima's as he easily tossed Derek across the room and behind some flaps, disappearing out of view. Everyone watched in horror before turning back to Gerard as he began speaking.
"Well done to the last, Scott, like the concerned friend that you are, you brought Jackson to Derek to be saved." Gerard smirked as he stepped forward. "You also didn't realize that you were bringing Derek to me."
Scott ducked and Cat looked at him oddly, unable to figure out why he did so until Isaac let out a small noise and began to fall back towards her. Cat dropped her gun and grabbed him under the arms, gently lowering him to the floor. An arrow was sticking out of his shoulder and she quickly glanced up, just as Scott whispered Allison's name in disbelief, the huntress disappearing behind the wall.
Scott ran over and grabbed Isaac, moving him to an area that was more protected and Cat grabbed her gun, both her and Chris raising them as they began shooting at Jackson, Gerard forgotten for the moment as they tried to stop the creature from going after the wolves. Jackson growled at them, jumping behind the SUV momentarily before jumping onto it, now in full Kanima mode. They continued shooting and as Chris went to reload, the Kanima's tail wrapped around the gun and knocked it away.
"Run." Chris yelled at her.
She did as she was told as they took off into another room, Cat quickly reloading her gun and giving it to Chris as she pulled out her extra one. They both stopped to turn and shoot when his tail reached out and knocked them both aside. They went flying in different directions, Cat crashing into some crates just as Derek flipped over them, crouching in front of her as he snarled at the Kanima. Across from them, Scott and Isaac had already wolfed out.
"Hide." Derek growled at her before the 3 wolves attacked the Kanima.
Cat crawled behind the crates she landed in front of, trying to catch her breath as she did. Finally when she peaked back out, Scott and Isaac were down, both slowly getting up as they watched Derek and the Kanima fight. Derek went down moments later, the Kanima slicing him in the stomach and Cat also pushed herself to her feet, seeing Allison heading towards Isaac. Hurrying around the outskirts of the main fight, she saw Allison slash Isaac's stomach, the wolf swinging at her but it was easily ducked as Allison moved behind him, raising the knives for a killing blow. Before she could bring them down though, she stopped, hearing a click and glancing to the side to see Cat there, a gun in her hand, aimed right at her temple. Isaac fell to his hands and knees but Cat didn't look over, not wanting to give Allison the upper hand.
"Back off." Allison warned her.
"I have the gun, you shouldn't be giving orders, now drop your knives."
Allison glared at her out of the corner of her eyes but finally dropped them. "They killed my mother and for that, I will kill them."
"There are so many things wrong with that." Cat cried in disbelief. "First off, your mom tried to kill Scott. Derek saved him and when he bit her, he didn't do it to kill her or piss you off, he was saving his pack member. Secondly, your mother chose to die. Who says she couldn't live life as a werewolf? So stop acting like a complete bitch and just think about it before you lose anyone and everyone close to you."
She finally took the time to glance at Isaac to make sure hhe was okay. Too late, she realized it was a bad idea, Allison's need for vengeance overpowering any other emotions.
"You're lying." Allison screamed, the brunette's hand snaked out and grabbed Cat's wrist, twisting it until she let go of the gun. She moved in, grabbing the back of Cat's head and pushing it down as she brought her knee up, hearing the smaller girl's howl of pain as her nose made contact. Cat dropped to the ground, tears in her eyes from the pain and Allison picked up the knives, disappearing again.
"Cat." Isaac called, crawling over to her. "Are you okay?"
She looked up at him and he reached over, pushing her nose back into place again and wincing at her scream of agony.
"I had to do it." He apologetically told her.
"I know." Cat whimpered. "Are you okay?"
"I'm healing. Thanks for saving me, I mean, she's your friend."
"At the moment, no. A world of no. Right now, I need to incapacitate her before she freaking kills someone." She reached out for her gun, grabbing it from Isaac who had found it first.
He stood up and pulled her to her feet, trying her best to ignore the huge amount of pain lancing through her face. She glanced around, finally finding Allison as she moved towards Derek, swinging her knives in a fancy pattern.
"Allison, no." Scott cried.
"I wish I had my bow." Cat muttered as she lifted her gun and aimed it at Allison. She didn't want to actually shoot her friend, not by a long shot but she also couldn't let Allison kill Derek either. If she could hit the knife or fire a warning just past Allison, perhaps it would scare the other girl off.
Allison raised the knives, as Scott begged her to stop and Cat made herself go into that cold detached place once more so she would be able to do this. The knives began to lower; Cat began to pull the trigger, aiming for her hand, hoping she would just hit the knife. The Kanima came up behind her and as Cat pulled the trigger, she moved the gun slightly to the side so it would hit the Kanima, it did, in the neck but he only grew angry, his tail snaking out to knock the gun aside before it wrapped around her neck and yanked her close as it's claws wrapped around Allison's neck.
This seemed all too familiar to her and like last time, she reached into her boots to pull out another knife.
"I wouldn't do that again, if I were you." Gerard warned her and she stopped, instead glaring at him as he turned to where the Kanima held Allison in it's claws. "Not yet, sweetheart."
"What are you doing?" Allison asked in disbelief.
Scott looked between the two girls, feeling completely helpless and Cat could see Isaac moving towards her but she gave her head a small shake, stopping him in his tracks.
"He's doing what he came here to do." Scott told them.
"Then you know?" Gerard asked in surprise.
"What's he talking about?" Allison whispered and Cat was just as confused.
"It was that night outside the hospital, wasn't it?" Gerard asked. "When I threatened your mother. I knew I saw something in your eyes, you could smell it, couldn't you?"
Cat could see Isaac look up with realization. "He's dying."
"I am." Gerard confirmed. "I have been for a while now. Unfortunately, science doesn't have a cure for cancer but the supernatural does." He looked down at Derek and finally Cat clued in.
"Oh my god." She whispered, looking to Scott, who nodded in confirmation.
A tear rolled down Allison's face as she stared at her grandfather in horror.
"You monster." Chris spat out.
"Not yet." Gerard replied.
"What are you doing?" Allison cried again and the Kanima's claw tightened around her neck.
"You'd kill her too?" Chris asked in disbelief, staring helplessly at his daughter.
Gerard looked at him, a crazy glint now in his eyes. "When it comes to survival? I'd kill my own son."
Chris glared at him with hatred as he turned to look at Scott, calling his name. Scott glared at the old man before looking at the two girls in the Kanima's grasp. Cat could see the emotions warring on Scott's face when she remembered him talking earlier as though he had a plan. Still, she wasn't ready to relax and hope he would save her, not when he would have to deal with the consequences and Allison caught in the Kanima's claws.
Scott looked between everyone and when he finally looked at Cat, she nodded, having understood that he had a plan this whole time but she couldn't help but wonder why he never told her or why she never picked up on it beforehand. Cat subtly waved Isaac closer to her, knowing she would need his help when the time came. Scott walked over to Derek, looking as though this was the last thing he wanted to be doing and in a way it was but it was a necessity and he got that. He pushed the wolf back as he dewolfed and leaned down picking up a partially paralyzed Derek by the neck.
"Scott." Derek gasped. "Scott don't. You know he's going to kill me right after and he'll be an alpha."
"That's true." Gerard said, unable to keep the gleeful tone from his voice. "But I think you already know that, don't you Scott? He knows that the ultimate prize is Allison. Do this small task for me and they can be together, you are the only piece that doesn't fit, Derek. And in case you haven't learned yet, there's just no competing with young love."
"Scott, don't." Derek begged him. "Cat, talk to him, he'll listen to you."
"I can't stop him." Cat softly replied as Scott looked up at Allison. She shook her head in horror then at Cat who was now calm as she stared back at him before slightly nodding her head. "He has to do this."
"I have to." Scott confirmed as he yanked Derek's head back, his mouth wide open.
Gerard took off his jacket and stepped forward, rolling up the sleeve of his shirt.
"Ready?" Cat mouthed to Isaac, who only looked back at her to show he understood, waiting for her to make a move.
Gerard placed his arm in Derek's mouth, and Allison turned away unable to watch. He applied pressure to break the skin, letting out a yell of pain as he did so.
"Now." Cat whispered.
She reached down and yanked out a knife, slashing at the Kanima's tail as Isaac slashed at him with his claws, catching her when she fell and pulling her out of harm's way. She scrambled back a bit further and her hand touched something, she looked to see it was her bow that Chris had given her but she had left it in the car, how had it gotten there? She glanced around and saw a quick flash of teeth, rolling her eyes when she realized it was Peter. He as just sitting there this whole time? They could have used his help long ago. Cat quickly picked it up, going to one knee and notching an arrow, turning back to the scene at hand.
Scott had just dropped Derek to the ground and everyone was staring at Gerard who was backing up as he stared at his arm, lifting it in victory. Cat stared at the wound, her eyes widening as black blood began to flow out of it.
"What. The. Fuck." Isaac whispered beside her.
"Is he turning into a Kanima?" she asked.
"I don't know." He replied.
"I need to get close enough to see."
"Even I think that's crazy." Isaac whispered back "And I think most of everything you do is pretty badass and hot."
She flashed him a quick grin, dropping the bow and pulling out another knife. "we gotta kill him now and I can do it."
Isaac nodded, although he looked decidedly unhappy about it before grabbing her hand and quietly pulling her closer.
"What is this?" Gerard asked in horror, seeing the black blood before he glared at Scott. "What did you do?"
Everyone looked at Scott uncertainly who looked back at them with a small quirk to his lips. "Everyone always said Gerard had a plan. I had one too."
"No." Gerard whispered, reaching into his pocket and pulling out the pill case he always had with him. He dumped it into his hand and crushed them.
"Mountain ash." He roared.
Cat grinned, glad they finally got one on Gerard as her and Isaac snuck up behind him. She lifted her hands to grab his head, it was time to finish him off if the mountain Ash didn't.
"Cat, no." Scott yelled but it was too late. Cat grabbed his head and immediately began to scream as she was sucked into his head. Visions of people he killed flashed through her mind and she wrestled with it, trying to throw it back at him but she was having so many problems and she couldn't figure out why.
"Cat." She heard Isaac calling her and felt him grabbing her arm and suddenly, he was there in the vision with her, grabbing her into arms so she didn't have to look at the horrifying scenes that kept playing and she couldn't get out of. As they embraced in her vision, the horror of Gerard's mind was gone and suddenly she saw herself being chased through the forest, laughing and giggling as a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind. She let out a small squeal as they fell, Isaac stopping himself with his hands before he could land on her.
"I love you." He whispered before leaning down to capture her lips with his.
The scene changed, pictures of the future flashing through her mind, faster and faster and Cat gasped. This had never happened to her before, she had never really seen a future for her like this before and now she was living it fast forward and it was all jumbled and confused. In one scene she was with Isaac, in another with Scott.
"Cat, come back."
Her eyes finally fluttered open and she was looking up into Isaac's face, a serene and peaceful smile on her face.
"You scared the living shit out of me." He told her.
"did you see?" she whispered.
His brows knitted together and she couldn't tell if it was from fear or confusion. "Later. We have things to deal with."
"Oh." She gasped, struggling to sit up. "I have to stop Gerard."
"No, you don't. The mountain ash, with probably a little help from you did that. You totally missed that stuff spewing out of his mouth like a fountain."
"Gross." She wrinkled her nose.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Derek was asking Scott.
She looked over to see the alpha looking up at the younger werewolf.
"Because you may be an alpha but you're not my alpha." Scott replied.
Derek looked on in disbelief as Scott turned to look at Allison, who was still held in the Kanima's grasp. They all heard a grunt and someone retching, and they turned to see Gerard struggling to sit up.
"Kill them. Kill them all." He yelled at the Kanima before falling face down.
The Kanima loosened his grip and Allison lifted an arm, elbowing it in the face. He easily knocked her down before stepping over her when there was a massive crash. Everyone looked over to see Stiles' jeep crashing through the warehouse and heading straight for the Kanima, not stopping until he hit it.
Cat struggled out of Isaac's arms and he reluctantly let her go as she hurried as fast as she could to the jeep, seeing Lydia was also in there. She reached the passenger side just as Jackson jumped onto the hood of the car. Both occupants screamed and Cat wrenched the door open so they could get out. Stiles scrambled out after Lydia and ran towards Scott but as Cat went to pull Lydia away, she shook the smaller girl off, standing up to the Kanima.
"Jackson." She cried as he lifted an arm as though to strike out at her. "Jackson."
"Lydia." Stiles yelled, trying to rush back to her but Scott grabbed him.
Cat grabbed Lydia's arm who shook her off again, as the redhead held up something in her hand, causing the Kanima to stop in his tracks as he looked at it. Cat peered closely, realizing it was a key and as the Kanima stared at it, he slowly turned back into Jackson. His eyes bleeding back to its original color and he reached out with one clawed hand and took it from her, staring hard at it.
Lydia, for her part, stood her ground as she watched him and he slowly relaxed, realizing who she was and more importantly what he was. He gave a small nod as he stepped back and away from Lydia and Cat stepped up to the taller girl again, grabbing her hand for comfort as Derek stood up and moved towards Jackson. Cat saw Peter come out of hiding and give Derek a nod. Jackson, opened up his arms, nodding, accepting of his fate. It had to end and he had to let them end this while he still knew who he was.
"Lydia, turn away." Cat softly told her.
"No." Lydia replied, refusing to move.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Scott move forward as though to stop them but it was too late, Peter and Derek each stabbed him with a claw, slightly lifting him off the ground before they pulled away.
Lydia brought a hand to her mouth in horror before she shook Cat off again and ran to Jackson, grabbing him as he collapsed. Isaac came up behind Cat, grabbing her arm and pulling her back towards the others. Everyone continued watching as Jackson asked Lydia if she still loved him and Lydia confessed that she did so much. Jackson slumped against her, dead and Lydia cried as she continued murmuring how much she still loved him, gently placing him back on the ground. Beside her, she saw Scott reach out, lacing his fingers with Allison's as the brunette stared at her friend, a stricken look on her face. Cat looked away, trying not to let it bug her as an arm wrapped around her, pulling her closer. She looked up at Isaac, a small sad smile on her face and she felt a hand grab hers. She looked down to see Allison had grabbed her and was holding on for dear life. Allison gave her a small smile before looking past her to where her grandfather had been.
"Where's Gerard?" She asked, slightly panicked.
"He can't be far." Her father replied.
They all turned back to the scene as Lydia stood up and turned towards them, tears streaming down her face. Stiles moved towards her but stopped after a couple steps, staring past Lydia.
Everyone looked at the sound of nails scraping against pavement and Isaac quickly let her go as Scott did the same, leaving the 2 girls clinging to each other. Stiles stepped back and Lydia slowly turned around in time to see Jackson open his eyes. They were glowing blue and he slowly stood up, stretching and howling at the unseen moon, completely wolfed out. Cat stared with wide eyes, glancing around to see everyone else looked just as confused as she did. She couldn't stop the thought that crossed her mind of having to see a naked Jackson far too much.
When he was done, the wolf receded and Jackson slowly turned to look at Lydia. The two briefly stared at each other before Lydia launched herself at him and they wrapped their arms around each other. Cat could see Stiles was trying to hold it together and her heart broke a little for him at that. He had been in love with Lydia for years and now he had helped her save the boy she was in love with.
Stiles nodded and moved past Scott, wiping a stray tear away. "He scratched my jeep." He hoarsely told his friend before walking away. He got into his jeep and waited for everyone to disperse, somehow being the lucky one to drive Lydia and Jackson home.
Cat looked around to see Peter had disappeared and Derek was about to follow, calling to Isaac. Isaac looked at him before looking back at Cat.
I'll catch up with you in a bit." He told his alpha.
Derek looked at him, then at her, nodding before he left.
"Cat, I'll take you back to your car." Chris told her. "Let me go look for Gerard."
Cat nodded as Allison turned to her, tears falling down her face.
"Cat I'm so sorry."
"I know." Cat replied with a small smile, looking at the clasped hands of her and Scott.
"Can you ever forgive me."
"In time." Cat whispered.
Chris returned, saying he couldn't find Gerard after a quick search but had called some hunters in to look because he wanted nothing more than to get his daughter home.
