Well as I guessed last night's episode was A fantastic and B an entire flashback episode which works perfectly for this chapter as you will soon fined out, so here it is, I hope you like it.
Isaac and Rachel got into Stiles jeep, Stiles hit the gas and pulled out of the woods. "Are you nuts?" Isaac reprimanded her as she sat in between then ignoring him. "You could of killed yourself, do you..."
"Isaac, shut up!" she shouted as he looked at her funny. Stiles remained silent to be sure not to get on her bad side and pulled up to her house. Isaac climbed out and reached for his sister.
"Rachel wait," Stiles whispered.
"Not now," she answered taking her brothers hand who pulled her from the car. She walked into the house and went straight to her room. She sat on her bed a thousand thoughts running through her head. A knock came from her door. "If you are here to chastise me then go away," she shouted as Isaac opened the door and sat next to her.
"It's almost midnight," he said softly as she looked at the clock.
"So what? I don't care about that," she sighed walking to the window.
"Rachel come on, you do care a little."
"Isaac, how can we celebrate with a mood like this? Boyd died, I find out that one of my friends is...is one of them. I can't celebrate. I won't celebrate," she whispered looking out the window her eyes glowing blue.
"Fine, if you really don't want to celebrate then at least watch this," he sighed as she turned around.
"What is that?" she stepped closer to the VHS on the bed. Isaac held it up and handed it to Rachel.
"I don't know, but I found it in the basement," he said before handing it to Rachel. In red marker it read 'Rachel's 17 birthday'. "I'll be in the other room," he said nervously before leaving her alone. She slowly put the tape in the player and turned her TV on. Her mom's face appeared on the screen and she took a deep breath.
"Hi, honey," she started. "It's probably about time you know the truth." Isaac walked down the hall and turned the living room television on to mute the noise that was coming from upstairs. He sat in the same position on the couch trying to drown out his mother's voice but the longer the tape went on the more tears rose to the surface. He tried drowning her voice out with the show he was watching but with each volume level that rose the more he focused on his hearing drowning out the TV he was watching. "I love you, and your brothers," her mom finished and the screen went black. Rachel sat on her bed a cold feeling running inside her. Sending three texts she climbed out of her bedroom window and walked into the woods. The old building came into view scorched and destroyed. Walking in the house Rachel smelled the air, no one was there...yet. Slowly she climbed the stairs the middle step breaking beneath her weight. Pulling her leg from the hole in the stairs she continued up, looking around the room She walked down the hall and walked into the room at the end. Sitting on the window sill she looked around the room taking it in.
"How can this be? It's impossible," she whispered. "Oh my God, that's why I'm the link," she gasped standing up.
"Rachel!" Stiles' voice echoed through the house.
"Where are you?" Scott followed behind.
"I'm up here," she whispered the pain already settling in. Scott heard her and dragged Stiles up the stairs.
"What's wrong, why are you here?" She looked at Scott and sighed.
"I found something, something strange, something important, something," she whispered drifting off looking around the burned room.
"Why are we at the Hale house?" Stiles questioned as she slowly looked at him.
"Isaac handed me this video as a birthday present," she started as they looked at her. "It was my mom. She made it for me because she was scared that the hunters would come after her."
"Why?" Stiles interrupted.
"She made the video the day of the fire, this fire," she continued ignoring Stiles' question. "You see she was a link, she was like me, except human," she whispered.
"What do you mean a link? A link to what a secret?" Scott asked as she finally looked at the boys.
"No," she laughed with a smile, "she was a link to two packs, just like I'm the link between ours and Derek's," she said, "I now understand why I am," she smiled.
"What do you mean? Why your the link?" Stiles asked.
"Talia Hale was my mom's sister, my dad never knew," she rolled her eyes as Scott and Stiles looked at her.
"Derek is Isaac and I's cousin," she said slightly uncomfortable and sickened remembering the time they dated.
"What?" Scott laughed.
"Shut up, I'll tell you what my mom told me," she said her brows lowering. "The morning of the fire, she went to see someone important. The other alpha."
"Mommy, can I come?" Rachel who was only nine ran down the stairs.
"No, I'll be back shortly," the older woman smiled. "Camden, take your sister, please," she called as her older brother walked into the room and pulled Rachel away.
"Morgan, you running to the store? Where out of a few things," her dad yelled from the kitchen.
"I'll go later, I have a meeting," she shouted before she walked out the door and locking it behind her, she got in her car and drove forward as Isaac stepped in front of the car causing her to jam the breaks. "Get out of the way Isaac," she yelled rolling her window down as he slowly backed away from the car a sad look on his face. "I'm sorry, I'm just late, I'll see you when I get home," she sighed before rolling the window up again and drove down the street. Her phone rang and she aloud it to go to voice mail. Pulling up to a hotel downtown she parked and walked to the elevator taking it to the top of floor. She walked down the hall and came to the door raising her hand to knock the door opened.
"Come in," a boy a year older then her oldest opened it and she walked in.
"I'll never get used to that," she tried to make the cold room a little light hearted.
"Why didn't you answer?" the alpha asked looking out the window.
"Why such a sudden visit?" she smiled a little, "Or are you going to give me the cold shoulder the entire time, Deucalion?" He turned and smiled at the woman.
"I could never give you the cold shoulder Morgan," he laughed hugging her.
"Is it true?" she asked softer as she looked around the room. No one said a word and she turned back to Deucalion. "Make them leave," she whispered as he sighed and pointed to the door. She took his glasses off to look into his deformed eyes. "I want the truth, now Deucalion. Did you return with them or not? I won't tell Talia," Morgan pleaded waiting for an answer from him.
"Fine, yes, they came with us, you know they would," he answered as she sighed.
"How am I to keep this bond when you bring Ennis along for the ride?" she shouted as Deucalion smiled.
"He isn't all that bad, darling?"
"Oh don't try and smooth talk me, he is wild, and uncontrollable. Do you think that is the smartest thing to have around right now? He tried turning a fifteen year old and she died," she continued to shout.
"Morgan, shush," Deucalion sighed placing his hand on her mouth. "Last I heard was your nephew was the one who really killed her."
"It's Ennis' fault, she had a future and Ennis took it from her, he is reckless and going to get into far more trouble then need be."
"You can't judge a person by one mistake..."
"One mistake, he has had more then one, and meeting adjured," she hissed walking for the door.
"Morgan," Deucalion called as she turned.
"Don't worry, Talia, doesn't have to know, unless you give me a reason," she squinted her eyes and walked out the door. Morgan looked at the teens who formed Deucalion's pack and walked back to the elevator, her trust for them was decreasing the more she made contact with them and she wasn't the only other one to know that. Returning to her car a woman stood in front of the black SUV.
"Another meeting without me?" Talia smiled at her younger sister who just looked back at the building.
"He set it up, apparently his lying has gotten worse," she sighed unlocking her car door.
"Well maybe we should talk a little more."
"We will, I'll be at your house in a few hours I just need to return home to my family," Morgan laughed as Talia nodded and hugged her before watching her drive away.
"See she was the link between Deucalion and Talia," Rachel spoke up as Scott looked at her funny. "She came home to see us because she didn't want us to get suspicious or something, I don't know but later that night it got worse, the link between packs would defiantly get broken, and when the link breaks nothing can come out of it."
"What do you mean?" Stiles asked.
"Before you and Isaac came to save me. Keith told me that if the link is killed then the packs become rivals, what he didn't tell me is what happens when one alpha is killed then the link is the one in trouble, remember the day my mother met with Deucalion was the day the Hale fire took place," Rachel spoke up a mixture of excitement and upset was in her voice.
