Derek and Stiles are at Lydia's house. She comes from the kitchen bringing water .

"So… someone can please explain why these thirsty fellows are here?"

Stiles drinking: "Long story made short, we're here to protect you. Yes, again."

"I was going out. I'm going to my aunt's house."

Derek: "Your life is in danger."

"Lydia." It's Stiles. He's very serious: "There's something we need to talk about."


Several hours ago...

Scott and Peter are at an isolated abandoned house near the highroad.

Peter tries to kill Scott, but the boy holds him, almost breaking his arm.

Scott, menacing: "Why are you doing this?"

Peter: "Okay, let go off my arm, since I obviously don't have the strength to kill an alpha."

Scott intensifies his menace look.

Peter: "Okay, I want your alpha state. Didn't want the true alpha, but I want this."

Scott's so surprised by his sincerity that Peter manages to release his arm.

Peter: "Now I will give you a proposition."

Meanwhile, Derek desperates over Stiles near-dead body. He looks around for some help, but is near collapsing of despair.

He doesn't even realize someone coming near. When he notices, this person is already very close to him, almost touching his shoulders. But he does not react even to the touch.

Derek says only: "Help me."

Derek turns and is surprised by who he sees.

This person says: "Yes, I can help you." There are other people arriving.


"Lydia, there's a reason they're after you."

"Yes," she answers Stiles "I'm a banshee."

"No, there's something else." His eyes are full of tears.

Derek interrupts: "They're here." He's looking to the window.

Stiles goes to him. Lydia's afraid.

Derek only to Stiles: "I'm sorry to interrupt the moment." He's harsh.

"Derek, don't do this at a moment like this."

Derek: "I'm sorry." It's a completely robotic response.

"Don't blame me."

Derek: "I said I'm sorry."

And so a bomb is thrown through the window. Derek orders them to go upstairs.

Lydia: "Why are you two treating each other like that?"

Stiles: "Not now, Lydia."

But when they arrive upstairs, they're held captive by human people.

They did exactly what Lorenzo wanted, by going upstairs.

A man, the leader of this group: "Now there is time to have fun."

Stiles is scared. Derek is angry. And Lydia starts to cry.

That's when Scott arrives outside and talks to Lorenzo.

"Leave them alone. It's me you want."

Lorenzo: "So the special guest arrived. Hold his dear friends with compassion for the time being. I want his life to be the thing holding them. I want him to fight fully."


Almost an hour later…

Scott and Lorenzo are still fighting. It's almost a massacre on Scott. Lorenzo's having fun, enjoying the moment, but he's holding himself, he could kill Scott very easily. He's using Scott's healing to torture him.

Inside the house, Derek neares Stiles in the kitchen.

"Good thing they allow us to roam the house freely."

Stiles: "I swear to you I didn't know."

Derek: "I didn't approache you now because of this. I'm going outside to kill Scott."

Stiles looks to him surprised.

Derek: "Yeah, you heard right."


Before…

The men who offered help to Derek were werewolf hunters from the Argent family.

"Why do you wanna help me?"

"Help, as you're aware, comes with a price."

"What do you want from me?" Holding back the instinct to say 'anything' and be treated like a slave.

An old woman with black gloves says: "Scott is a werewolf so legitimate he became a true alpha. We cannot allow such a thing to exist in the Argent's family headquarters town in America."

Derek's thinking.

She continues: "There's no time to get him to a hospital." Derek's hesitant, this would not be what Stiles would want him to do. "Derek, it seems to be the destiny of lovers to be blackmailed with the object of their passion, wouldn't you agree? Sonia, our leader, she allowed me to propose to you one thing. That you kill Scott McCall. In return, we will never mess with you two anymore."

Derek's white as paper: "Why don't you kill him yourself? He's an alpha, I can't kill him."

"We will help you kill him, then we'll try to help you kill the immortal. But only one thing after the another."

Derek nods, ashamed of what he's doing: "I accept."


Stiles is mortified: "So it wasn't Deaton who cured me."

Derek: "No, and it wasn't him that told me about Lydia's baby. Deaton's dead."

Stiles: "You won't kill Scott. They're the evil organization, in case you didn't notice. You can't trust them."

"There's nothing you can say to convince me. Lorenzo doesn't seem to want to kill Scott. Apparently he's breaking his mind. I've seen werewolves being broken like this and becoming complete puppets. I will kill him now that he's weak, your friend would not want to live if this meant being a slave." Leaving.

Stiles: "Stop!" Crying. "You're using excuses, but I trust Scott and I trust you, I know you. And that's why I'm certain you won't kill him, but save. Listen"

"I don't wanna hear, I've made my mind. I just want you to know that this is all my decision, and I'm the one to blame."

Stiles hugs him from behind, trying to stop him.

Stiles: "Hear me out, I have a plan."

Derek: "Seems like you're not so sure, after all, that I'm not going to kill Scott."

"There's something you're not telling me, but you will tell."

Suddenly, Derek turns and punches Stiles in the forehead, rending him unconscious.

Derek: "Yes, Stiles. There is."

Derek starts screaming that he wants to face all the men on the house.

They come and start bashing him, he's being massacred. Then he uses his own claws to rip his abdomen and take some things out of the wound, inside a strange plastic bag.

He remembers the hunters in the woods giving it to him, while a paramedical saved Stiles. It was something used by the hunters when they domesticated werewolves. A relic of that time. A time when hunter families disputed among themselves for supremacy.

Derek throws one of this on the floor and everyone around falls to the ground. Derek grabs Stiles and leaves him in a room upstairs, away of the toxin he unleashed. Then, he goes out.


Before…

Lorenzo was trying to find Scott right after throwing him in the woods. In the spot were Scott was, he notices something.

"Peter's scent. Looks like the bastard's up to something. Alright, let him bring it on. Meanwhile, I will make some circus to attract the alpha kid."

Sometime after this…

Scott and Peter were still talking in the house near the highroad.

Peter: "I can teach you how to resurrect, like I did, using a paranormal, such as a banshee. It's a secret I've stolen from Lorenzo himself, and the motive he will kill me on sight."

"And you think I'm letting you kill me."

Peter: "Yes. This power you have, it only brought you problems. Why don't you just let it go?"

Scott: "This power is what's protecting my friends."

"I guess I'll have to find some friends to make a pack that can kill you."

Scott: "If you would do this, you wouldn't tell me but attack by surprise." Leaving.

"Okay, you're right, I don't trust no one. But I have another proposal, then."

Scott: "You will never stop? I have to go."

Peter: "You look like you're the easiest target to me. Besides, who knows if an alpha state from a true alpha is better to be stolen."

Scott: "Talk fast. I need to go."

"When Lorenzo defeats you, and you're about to get killed, find me on the woods. I'll gladly kill you and save your friends, cause I know a way to kill Lorenzo."

Scott: "You're bluffing."

"I will be your only chance. Come to me."

Scott: "This is your plan?! Seems to leave a lot to chance."

Peter:"If I fail in this, I'll go to the next one, and the next, and the next."

"What about your daughter? Why don't you just go live with her?"

Peter: "Because she would hold me back. You should learn this lesson."

Scott smiles: "I will kill Lorenzo myself. You just watch it." And leaves.


Scott is being sliced by Lorenzo, and he looks to the woods, considering his other option.

Then Lorenzo lets him go and Scott only sees Derek coming to his direction and being attacked by Lorenzo. Derek skillfully avoids being sliced in half.

Lorenzo: "Trying to kill my playtoy? You're not smart, boy."

Derek surrounds himself in mountain ash.

By Lorenzo's orders, one of the human comes to undo the ash circle, but he also can't touch it.

Lorenzo: "Ingenious. But not so much."

Lorenzo grabs this man and throws him in Derek, taking him out of the circle.

Lorenzo comes after Derek, but someone saves him and is sliced in his place.

Scott is trying to go to the woods. Lorenzo goes to him and slices his column.

While this happened, Derek holds his sister Cora, who saved him, in his hands. He's crying. Lorenzo just watches, enjoying.

"Cora."

Cora: "Why are you trying to kill Scott?"

Derek: "Don't talk."

Cora: "Please, look at me, I'm supposed to be dead already, only I'm stubborn."

Derek's suffering a lot.

Cora: "Don't let me die curious. Come on, answer me, so that I can put some sense into you."

" I'll kill Scott, so that the hunters will leave Stiles alone, his best friend won't be a werewolf and he'll hate me. Then he will have a normal life with Lydia and his son."

But before he ended she was already dead, and he cries and screams over her body.

In the house, from a window, Lydia saw all this. Stiles is behind her, he just awoke.

Lydia to him: "I'm pregnant?!"

Stiles nods.

"How you knew and I didn't?"

"Remember when Gerard checked on Scott while he were sleeping? He did the same to you. Evan too, did the same with you. He was sent by the Argents."

Lydia hugs him.

Stiles goes to the window and is shocked by the scene.

What he sees is Scott with arms and legs out of his body and Derek crying above Cora's body. Lorenzo is laughing discreetly.

Stiles: "This has to stop."

He starts to go outside, but Lydia holds him.

Lydia: "I will not have a fatherless child. Stay, please."

Stiles: "Banshees rarely have children. The children that they have are peeiras. Beings that can control werewolves. Gerard wasn't werewolf-human hybrid, he was werewolf-peeira hybrid. They are extinct, because Lorenzo killed them all, since he didn't want someone who could control him, so if I don't go outside and find a way to end this, there will be no son to be fatherless."

He goes, while she kneels on the ground crying silently, almost in state of shock.


Stiles breaths in front of the door. Then he goes out.

He goes to Derek kneeled over Cora's half-body. He, too, kneels, and holds Derek's hands. They look at each other meaningfully. Derek jumps on him hugging him fiercely.

In the meantime, Lorenzo is about to kill an unconscious Scott. In the woods nearby, Peter looks, disappointed.

Then Lorenzo stops, absolutely euphoric. One of Scott's dismembered arms is healing at visible speed.

Lorenzo: "I've never seen a wolf do this." Then he quickly takes decisions: "Kill'em all." To the wolves. Then he grabs Scott's body over his shoulders and prepares to leave, taking it.

The wolves enter Lydia's house to kill her, but they encounter Kira.

Kira, to Lydia: "Thanks for calling, Lyd, I needed it. Now hide." And starts to fight.

Outside, unexpectedly, Derek screams: "Lorenzoooo!" Furiously and runs to his direction.

Stiles screams: "No!"

Lorenzo prepares to just deviate, but Derek's claws hit him lightly in the ankle.

Lorenzo will start to smile, but he looks at the wound and there's some green substance in it. He sees it in Derek's claws. Then Stiles remembers Deaton giving it to him when they were locked behind the door on the clinic.


Hours later…

Derek wakes up on his loft.

Derek: "What happened?"

Stiles:"We used the toxin of a were-jaguar on Lorenzo. Deaton had managed to synthesize and potentiate it from Kate's dead body."

Derek: "And where's he now? And why don't I remember a thing?"

Stiles: "The toxin not being this strong is because in this level it strikes even it's user, through the skin. There was the possibility you'd even loose all your memories, I told you it, but you still acted as a hero."

Derek: "I'm no hero."

Stiles: "My father has Lorenzo locked. He doesn't seemed to remember a thing since he was four years old. To ensure, we gave him other doses of the toxin that were stored in Deaton's clinic. He now's like a newborn."

Derek's relieved and he hugs Stiles.

Derek: "I remember the forest. Right after Deaton's death."

They glare again.

Stiles: "I'll be a father. I guess I should've been more careful." They start laughing.

Derek looks him intensely in the eyes.

Derek: "What is it, Stiles? Tell me."

Stiles saddens: "Cora died saving you."

Derek's incredulous, voice failing: "What?"

Stiles: "I'm so sorry."

" I should know it was too much of a bless for a person like me to have my sister alive."

"She loved you. Don't dishonor the love she gave you by saying things like this."

Derek: "It's what happens to the ones that love me."

Stiles: "I'm still here. Being slobbery." Laughs. "It was so overwhelming but we beat Lorenzo. Together we're better than apart."

Derek holds his hands: "Thank you for your support."

Stiles opens his mouth but Derek interrupts his speech before it happens.

"Now go. Be with Lydia."

Stiles will talk again, but again Derek stops him: "After all that happened, she needs you right now. We can talk latter."

Stiles, at last, speaks: "Bossy."


One week later…

Scott, Derek, Stiles and Lydia meet at Cora's seventh day mass.

Scott sees Peter looking from afar, but then somebody passes in front of his vision and Peter's already gone. It's an enemy lurking. But it's business for posterity.

Derek and Stiles just look at each other and compliment one time.


Later that day…

Derek's bathing. He goes out of the shower and hears somebody in his room. He goes calmly to surprise the evildoer. He grabs it from behind and throws him on the ground. It's Stiles, which looks at Derek wrapped in a towel.

Derek: "Why do you do this things?"

Stiles: "Towel explains."

Derek: "What are you doing here? What about Lydia?"

Stiles: "Okay, what is happening here? Are you dumping me?"

Derek: "Dumping you? I thought this was what boyfriends do."

Stiles: "Good point. What are we to each other?"

Derek: "I don't know. I just know that I love you."

Stiles: "I love you too, so can we act like normal persons?"

Derek: "Normal persons surrounded by the bizarre."

Stiles: "I can cope with bizarre if only you're with me."

Derek coming to him: "And I can cope with 'normal persons' if you're with me."

They kiss.

Stiles: "Towel must go."

Derek: "No, you need a bath." Pushing Stiles with him to the bathroom.

Stiles: "Yes, I might need."

They go.


Days later…

Stiles is making homework.

His father calls him.

Stiles goes down to meet Derek waiting at the door.

Stiles goes out with him.

His father: "Don't forget the homework."

Stiles gives an assenting hand signal.

They walk to the jeep, Derek's arms around Stiles's neck.

Stiles: "Don't tell me it's movies again."

Derek: "Don't tell me you're becoming even more annoying."

They enter the jeep. Derek in the driver's seat.

Stiles: "This relationship can't work if I have no right to annoy you."

They laugh.

Derek: "Very funny." Ironic.

Stiles: "Why do you have to drive?"

Derek: "Werewolf senses makes for a safer driving."

Stiles: "Yeah, I'm sure this is what they're designed for. Traffic safety."

Derek: "What can I do to shut you up?"

Stiles: "The same as usual, I guess."

Derek kisses him ardently.

THE END
