Hey everyone. This chapter comes to you from Gran Canaria where I'm currently on holiday hence the break in posts. I had a few hours spare so wrote this on my iPad. Hope you enjoy the chapter.

Guest: The Erin clips from my trailer came from MTVs new show Scream, The Killing, Arrow and a short film all featuring the actress Bex Taylor-Klaus who is incredibly awesome and I feel would be perfect to play Erin.

Thanks for all you guys support. I love hearing from you all.

Enjoy!

Erin's POV

It had been a rough week. I seemed to be working more than ever and with my new social life it seemed my grades were suffering for it. And I was tired... ALL THE TIME! It had been two weeks since that night when Stiles had almost discovered my secret. And I'll be honest it really freaked me out. But at the same time I was almost kind of disappointed. A part of me, I guess, wanted Stiles to know the full story of my life and my job because every time I lied to him I felt inherently guilty.

It's always worse being a Reaper when you're reaping the soul of someone you know. Tonight I was sneaking back into school to reap the soul of the school janitor, Mark. Back in my loner days just after my dad died I spent a fair few lunches with Mark who was a nice guy. He'd help me with my Geometry homework and share his coffee with me. But tonight I was here to help him move on to the next life after death. It was a weird situation. I'd already given him what Noah had dubbed 'the touch of death' and all I had to do was wait for that fateful moment which would be at approximately 9:15.

Noah and I were camped out in the boiler room waiting for said time. He'd brought along his cards against of humanity and we were playing that while we waited. Suddenly there was a squeal cat like screech over the intercom that made both Noah and I look up in confusion.

"What the chuffing hell was that?" Noah exclaimed.

I shrugged in response and went to make a comment but was cut off by an ear splitting roar. I has to cover my ears it was that loud. When it finally stopped I reached up and grabbed my flashlight. "Come on let's go check it out." I made up the stairs a nervous Noah following behind me.

We headed for the source of the noise, the admin office but found it empty. We wandered around in the dark for a while when we heard the screams coming from the boys locker room. We were halfway there when we crossed the path of something big, black and ginormous. The thing had big glowing red eyes and snarled at us.

Noah and I stood frozen in the corridor when the thing charged towards us. Reacting on instinct I pushed my friend to the side just as the thing collided with me. I screamed as pain ripped through my shoulder. The thing grabbed me around the middle clamping it's jaws into my stomach, teeth ripping through flesh. I was flung through the air and landed against some lockers. The thing stared down at me with its huge red eyes and then it was running off.

"Erin!" Noah was beside me. "Oh my god. What do I do?" He asked pressing his hands to the wound in my stomach.

"Get... Some... Safe." I panted and my world went black.

Noah's POV

"Erin! Erin!"

She'd passed out and that thing could come back for us any minute. I looked around, the boiler room. I could get her there, barricade the door and call the cops and an ambulance. Oh my god there's so much blood. I grabbed Erin by the ankles and started to drag her back towards the boiler room. The monster had gone off probably to another part of the school and my path was clear. I'd just got her down the stairs when her eyes snapped open but they were pure white. Oh no, this couldn't be good.

Erin let in a raspy breath like she had a really bad chest infection. "It's him. The boy reaper. Wants to be great he does, just like daddy." Erin coughed and spat out a glob of black blood on the floor, pushing herself to sit up. "Daddy?" She said in a high pitched voice. "Daddy can't I come hunt the monsters with you. I'll be so very good and afterwards we can skin them together. Can we Daddy? Teach your little girl to hunt like you." Erin tilted her head to the side and breathed another wheezy breath. "Her fault." She said in a rough, croaking voice. "Her fault that we're dead. Came for us. Wanted revenge for the ones we killed six years ago. Fire burned the whole house, killed them all. He'll be coming for her next." Erin arched her back and screamed before slumping down again, her eyes clamped shut.

I quickly scrambled for my bag and pulled out my phone. I dialled 911 and waited. "Hello, my friends been badly hurt. I need an ambulance." I whispered down the phone case the thing heard me and came for more blood.

"Okay, can you tell me where you are?" The female voice asked.

"Beacon Hills High School. In the basement. Please hurry, she's bleeding really badly and..."

The woman on the other end of the phone sighed. "Look this is the second prank call we've had tonight."

I shook my head. "No, no. This isn't a prank call. Please you have to help. Please. I think she's dying." I cried down the phone.

"Look kid we got a tip from..."

"I don't have time for this! My friend is dying. Are you willing to risk that I might be lying and let her die!" I yelled down the phone. "Please I think whatever attacked us is still in the school and I need help now." I cried down the phone.

The woman sighed. "Alright but I have this number on record and if you're wasting police time I will trace your call and get someone to arrest you for wasting police time." She told him and hung up.

I reached into my bag and pulled out my hoodie pressing into the wound on her stomach. I took off my belt and tied it above her thigh where the locker had cut into it. And I waited.

The next few minutes were the longest if my life. And that's when her heart stopped. I rushed to perform CPR. She couldn't die! Her name wasn't up. I was so focused I didn't hear the paramedics rush in and pulled me away. I snapped out of it as they started her heart again. One of the paramedics led me out of the boiler room and out of the school. I let them watching them wheel Erin out on a gurney past me. It was like I was walking a dream.

Stiles's POV

I stood with Scott talking to my Dad when the paramedics came running out of the school carrying someone on a gurney. Was the janitor still alive? One if my dad's deputies came running over. "Sir we found the lad who made the 911 call in the boiler room. The girl is in really bad shape. They're rushing her to the hospital now, managed to restart her heart but we might be looking at a double homicide if we ever find the janitor." He told my dad.

My dad nodded. "Have we identified the girl?" He asked.

The deputy nodded. "It's Erin Prince sir."

"What?" I felt my heart stop. Erin? No she was studying with Noah tonight. Why would she be at the school? I looked around and saw the ambulance drive off. My legs gave way beneath me and I felt my throat close. No, no, no. This couldn't be happening. This was a nightmare. And she might die? No I can't lose her.

"Stiles." Scott's face loomed in front of me. I blinked and looked up at him.

I panted. "Can't breathe." I mumbled.

Dad was beside me. "Stiles listen to me. Erin is going to be fine. You hear me. I'm going to take you to the hospital as soon as I get this under control here. But you gotta calm down. Erin's gonna need you. Okay? We'll get through this. I promise." Dad vowed. "Do you want to come with me to speak to Erin's friend?"

I took a deep breath and nodded. I stood on shaking legs and followed dad to the third ambulance where Noah was perched on the edge.

"Hi Noah right?" My dad asked him. "Do you think you can tell me what happened?" He asked.

Noah blinked.

"Can you tell us why you were at the school?" Dad asked.

Noah swallowed. "We er... We were studying. But Erin she left some notes in her locker. We... Snuck in and... Er we almost got caught. We hid in the boiler room. Erin knows the janitor finishes at ten so we were going to wait until he left. Then we heard this... Noise." Noah trailed off.

"What kind of noise?" I asked.

"I guess it was a scream." Noah shook his head. "We went to investigate and... We split up. Next thing I hear Erin screaming. I rushed to help her but she was... On the floor. There was so much blood." His face turned chalky white and he looked like he was going to be sick.

My dad nodded. "Did you see her attacker?"

Noah shook his head. "No. Just a shadow running around the corner. I dragged. Erin to the boiler room. I thought it might be safer than the corridor and I called you." He finished telling his story.

"Okay."

A paramedic walked over. "We need to get this one to the hospital now, Sheriff." She told my dad.

My dad nodded. "Ok Noah. If you think of anything else don't hesitate to call." He handed Noah one of his cards. "We'll follow to the hospital." Dad said to the paramedic and motioned for me to follow him. I followed him to the car when Scott grabbed my arm. "He's lying." Scott whispered to me.

I glanced over at Noah. "What about?"

"Why they were there and about seeing the attacker." He told me. "I'll come to the hospital with you. We can ask him more then." Scott climbed in the back of my dad's cruiser while I climbed in the front.

At the hospital I raced to find Erin. Instead I found Scott's mum. "Do you know where Erin is?" I asked her.

Melissa gave me a sad smile. "She's been taken in to surgery. It'll be a couple of hours." She placed a hand on my shoulder.

"Where is she? Where's my baby?" Erin's mum raced into the hospital with Coach Finstock not far behind.

"She's in surgery right now Trudy. She's in good hands." Melissa told her.

Erin's mum sobbed and fell to her knees. "I can't lose her too." She cried.

I watched Coach kneel beside her and pull her up, wrapping his arms around her. "You're not going to." I heard him whisper to her.

"Trudy." A man I recognised from the library Erin worked at walked into eye hospital.

"NO!" Mrs Prince screamed pointing a finger at him. "You stay away from her. She's not dying." She shook her head.

The man gave her a kind look and shook his head. "No, not today."

Trudy let out a wail and flung her arms around him.

And so this odd little group of us all sat in silence waiting. Mrs Prince, Coach, the man who's name was Mika, Scott, my Dad and eventually a shaking Noah all waited in the waiting room for word on Erin.

Finally a doctor walked out. "Mrs Prince."

Trudy and everyone else jumped to their feet. "How is she?"

"Stable. We've managed to stop the bleeding. Right now she's comatose. We can't be sure how long she will remain that way but so long as her wounds heal it shouldn't be long. With any luck Erin will make a full recovery."

Trudy sobbed and flung her arms around the doctor. "Thank you. Thank you."

But the doctors were wrong. Erin healed naturally over the next two months but she still refused to open her eyes. I tried to visit her every day. I would come and sit and read and talk and tell her about all the stuff she was missing. I begged her to wake up but she just lay there, still, like Snow White after she ate the cursed apple.

The Alpha was gone and Derek was going around biting teenagers and yet Erin had been bitten and was neither dead, turned or dying. Something just wasn't adding up. Noah disappeared from school and no one saw him except when he came to visit Erin. I had tried with the help of Scott to get more from him but he'd just given us the same story and told us to leave him alone. And after his dad complained to mine we stopped asking. Then there was the kanima and Lydia had been attacked and like Erin hadn't turned but hadn't died either. Yet Lydia was up and walking around. Why wasn't Erin?

Then one night my dad walked into my room. "Stiles. I've just had a call. Erin's missing." He told me.

I frowned. "What?"

"A nurse went to check on her about an hour ago and she was gone. We've checked the security footage. It looks like she got up and walked out by herself." He told me. "I'm organising a search party. I just thought I should let you know."

I grabbed my keys from my desk. "I'm going to look for her and you can't tell me not to because this is Erin." I told him firmly.

Somebody's Girl

Dad nodded. "Okay but you keep your phone on at all times and bring Scott with you. I don't want you on your own." He pointed a finger at me.

I nodded. "I'll call him now." I grabbed my phone and raced for the door.

Somebody's Girl

"So where do you think she'd go?" Scott asked me.

I ran a hand over my head. "The library." I don't know why but I had a feeling the answers lay with the creepy librarian who may or may not be supernatural. I pulled the Jeep up outside the library's and raced for the door. It was locked so I pounded my fist onto it.

The door finally opened. "Can I help you?"

"Where's Erin? I know you know where she is." I demanded.

Mika frowned. "Erin's missing?"

I nodded. "Yeah she woke up and decided to go for a little walk. And I know you know where she is." I demanded.

Mika sighed. "I suspected this. Very well. We must hurry. Your werewolf friend stays here though. No offence but I have very little trust of werewolves." He eyed Scott.

Scott shook his head at me. "No way. I'm not letting you go off with him."

"Look if it means finding Erin it's something I'm willing to risk. If I'm not back in an hour come find me." I told him. "Okay, let's go."

I followed Mika into the woods around the back of the library.

"Keep close and stay quite. And if you see anything blue do not follow it. There's tricksters in these woods and they'll lead you off into all sorts of traps." Mika warned me.

I nodded, staying close beside him. "What are you?"

Mika glanced at me. "Human."

"But..."

"My job is to watch and guide. I myself have no special gifts except my brain." He tapped his temple. "Now be quiet, we're almost there."

I desperately wanted to ask where we almost were but then I saw it, a massive clearing in the woods, perfectly circular with an old stone alter surround by clear blue water. And stood by the pool, in her hospital gown, was Erin. "Erin!" I made to go to her but Mika pulled me back. I watched Erin turn and look at me, her eyes glowed completely black. Erin walked over to us and I pulled myself free from Mika to meet her. "Erin."

"Don't be afraid Stiles. All will be well." She said in a voice that didn't belong to her, it was strange, deep and low and echoed around the clearing like it was mechanical. Erin turned and walked back to the alter. I made to stop her but Mika once again held me back. Erin reached the pool and her gown dropped from her body. I watched frozen as Erin began to walk out onto the wart, her feet touching the surface but didn't sink below. She reached the stone alter and bed into it. Black fog appeared in the water and moved around, swirling around my girlfriends body. I watched as the smoke engulfed Erin, blocking her from sight and then in a flash of white light it vanished. I blinked squinting at the alter and my jaw dropped.

Crouched on the alter, Erin was hidden by a pair of massive black wings. I watched Erin slowly stand and she walked back across the alter to stand in front of me.

"Erin?" I breathed.

Erin smiled at me and the next thing I know she's pulling me in for a passionate kiss. I wrapped my arms around her neck, my fingers brushing feathers of pure black and kissed her back, relief and fear and confusion and passion poured into the kiss as I held her in my arms. I moved back and stared at her, wings and all before I felt my vision go cloudy and I blacked out.
