A/N.
I'm so, so sorry, like really sorry. This will not be the full moon chapter, but the start of it. Oh, fantastic news, Peter will be back soon for those who share my love for the man.
I decided I wanted to be a little cruel in this chapter but it was to make up for my shortest chapter in this story.
The songs that are used in this chapter are Wrong side of heaven and Digging my own grave.
Thank you so much to Jaylene Olebar for the review.

Chapter twelve.
Digging my own grave.

Arms wide open
I stand alone
I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone.

Scott POV.

He could feel it. It was like a vibration deep in his bones, calling him out. He knew what it was, knew it was what had been worrying his Alpha for so long, what had sent all of them into a frenzy to protect themselves from the Argents. It was the full moon.

Some part of him wanted to curl up against his Alpha who was sitting just a few meters away from him, and draw comfort from him.

He couldn't contain his whimper and Derek's head whipped up and deep green eyes met his, concern visible in the otherwise emotionless Alpha.

"Scott?"

He shook his head. There was nothing to worry about, nothing other than he couldn't stop thinking about the past, about the full moon, Peter and happier times.

He looked towards the door again. He knew that he couldn't go out, not with Derek's order to not, he couldn't resist an Alpha's order.

'You resisted Peter'

His mind said to him, making him huff out loud. It wasn't Peter, it was the Argents that had done it, created a monster with the face of his uncle, it was because of them that his family was dead, their fault that his brother had to kill his uncle. Everything was their fault, everything was on them.

He felt a hand touch his shoulder and couldn't help but shy away from the touch. The hand disappeared immediately when he did it and he could hear a small whine, telling him that it wasn't Derek like he thought that it was, but Isaac, the younger wolf.

Isaac POV.

He frowned and let out a small soft whine when Scott shied away from his hand, his entire body posture tensing and he shielded himself from Isaac.

"Scott?" he asked, "Derek wants to get ready now," he continued and nodded over to where their Alpha had move and was now standing in the front of the train, just barely visible to the two betas, he stood beside two train chairs bolted to the ground and chains on the ground, all ready to be used.

He looked back at Scott to see him swallow thickly and his eyes darted to the door before they returned to Derek, the older wolf looking at them sharply.

The other teen shot him a nervous glance and looked down at the floor and Isaac could see the struggle it took him to not hide his head in his hands. He knew the need to disappear well enough himself to recognize it himself.

He watched as Scott's heard jerked up and he looked like he was listening for something.

"I'm sorry Izi," he heard Scott whisper, barely a second after that he jumps for the door.


He sees and yet he doesn't, what happened next. Before Scott could get to the top of the chairs and the door, Derek stood in front of him, he had moved faster than any of them had ever seen him do, and Scott rammed into him, falling back down the stairs with a whimper and Isaac could see him try to crawl away, using only his left arm, the other was probably broken.

Derek POV.

He grunted as Scott rammed into him, taking a single step back before he stood still again. Scott fell down the stairs, tiny whimpers falling from the pup's mouth as he tried to crawl away by only using one arm.

He shook his head and sighed. He hadn't needed to stop Scott, the order he gave him would have been enough, but if Scott wanted to test his patience and desire for him to be safe, well then he would do so.

He slowly walks down the stairs and sees Isaac move to stand in front of Scott in a protective stance.

"Leave," he orders, making the younger wolf shake his head almost violently and Derek lets his lips pull back in a low snarl, "Isaac, move," he said again, not louder or lower, just with so much authority that it made even Scott whimper, because he knew it was his turn next.

He watched as Isaac turned his head to look at Scott, a whispered "Sorry," passed his lips before he ran for cover in the train, no doubt listening in on what would be said.

He sighed again and resumed his attention to Scott and continued his decent down the stairs, letting his eyes bleed crimson as he did.

When he reached the bottom of the stairs, he stopped moving and just looked Scott in the eyes. After a minute the teen looked down but tried again to scramble away, but his arm gave up and he fell down on the floor with a thud.

What have I done, and who have I become.

"Why?" was the only thing he asked.

Scott shook his head and gingerly touched his right arm with his left, his face turning pale as he did.

The Alpha moved forward and crunched in front of his beta, his hand moved forward to touch the broken arm softly, his veins quickly turning black, "You're not letting yourself heal, why?"

Scott just shook his head and starred at his arm. Derek pulled his arm back when there was no longer any pain to take and he sat fully on the floor, opening his arm in a silent invitation for Scott to take comfort from him.

"Do you know why I'm doing this Scott?"

The pup shook his head and finally moved into the embrace and leaned his head against Derek's shoulder, a soft sigh of content coming from him.

"You are the only family that I have left, he killed Laura." And I killed him, was left unsaid.

"I want to protect you Scott, I need to protect you."

The teen snorted and pulled away from his arms, giving him a hard glare before looking down again.

"Then the way you show love are not the way I want to be loved," he snarled back at him.

He was about to answer Scott back when a loud bang sounded and they were torn apart.


He opened his mouth to yell at Scott when the teen darted for the door, a second after that and one loud beep the entire building blew to pieces.

I'm here and gone
I'm dead and done

A/N.
I hated writing this chapter but it have been an entire week in my draft and I just couldn't figure out what made me hate it so much.
The next chapter will be full moon, just not the way you or I imagined it.
Next chapter will be named Battle Born and will hopefully be longer and so much better written than the piece
of b*****t was.
Review, they make my day.
