Previously on Stiles' Turn
We head towards the front to help Jackson and Isaac. "Jackson, Isaac," I ask through the earpiece. "We got Erica and Boyd out we're heading to you now. Is Derek with y'all?"
After a moment Jackson replies. "Now's not a good time. We could really use that help right about now though, haven't seen Derek either." Before I can reply we hear a heart stopping scream from the direction Jackson and Isaac are. Lydia and I share a look before we sprint toward them.
Now
It's three in the morning and the entire pack is at Derek's loft. The pups minus Lydia are Puppy Piling on Derek's bed. Erica and Boyd are in the center of the pile. Deaton examined them and declared the mostly unharmed. After their few wounds were treated we brought the home, being close to pack speeds up healing for the wolves. Isaac and Danny are on either side of them. Jackson and Derek are next to Isaac and the twins are next Danny.
They look peaceful all tangled together on the big bed. After everything they've all be through they deserve some peace. Lydia startles me out of my thoughts when she hands me a cup of coffee. "They're all safe you did good today, son" My dad save from across the table. I give him a small smile and take a sip from my mug.
"Well it's 3a.m. I'm going to sleep. I do need a lot of beauty sleep after all of today's events." Lydia say's walking towards the bed. "Don't stay up too late. Come join us soon." She says managing to get in between Isaac and Jackson.
I look back at Dad as he stands from the table. "I'm going to follow her lead cause I have to work in the morning." He comes around the table and gives me a kiss on my forehead. "Goodnight son." He says. "I love you kid."
"I love you, too Dad. Night." I whisper back as he makes his way up the spiraling staircase to the guest bedroom upstairs. I stare in that direction long after he's gone remembering the events of the night.
Flashback
After a moment Jackson replies. "Now's not a good time. We could really use that help right about now though, haven't seen Derek either." Before I can reply we hear a heart stopping scream from the direction Jackson and Isaac are. Lydia and I share a look before we sprint toward them.
Lydia and I get to the fight pretty quickly. Jackson is on the floor fighting Ennis along with Ethan. Jackson has some blood stains on his shirt but I don't know if the wounds are still open. Ethan looks better off. His shirt is torn but there are no marks on his body. Ennis is the worst of the three. His shirt is in shreds and he seems tired.
On the other side of the room Aiden and Isaac are fighting Kali. She seems to have the upper hand. Isaac has multiple wounds. They're healing but slowly. Aiden is not much better off. Within seconds of reaching the room Lydia is at Aiden's side and is throwing wolfsbane in Kali's face. Kali grabs her face screaming in agony. Her face starts to peel and blister. "YOU BITCH!" She screams towards Lydia trying to stop the wolfsbane. While she's distracted Aiden kicks her in the throat.
"No one calls Lydia a bitch." Aiden says as he throws Kali into the glass wall behind them. Glass falls from the ceiling but luckily none of us get hit. Sadly, not really, the same thing isn't true for Kali. A big piece of glass falls directly onto her head and she collapses. Another piece falls and embeds itself into her throat.
"AIDEN, WATCH OUT!" I scream noticing Ennis advancing on him to avenge his mate. Aiden turns just in time to block Ennis' punch. He misses the next punch and it lands in his gut. Ethan comes up from behind Ennis and throws him to the ground. Ennis quickly gets back up but Jackson is there to throw him down before he can do anything. I take some wolfsbane from Lydia and sneak up on Ennis. The twins manage to get him on the ground again. I take the moment to shove the wolfsbane down his throat. It quickly enters his bloodstream telling by the blood curling scream he released. He begins to vomit black goo, which means his body's dying.
We all stand around in shock for a few minutes until Danny walks in the front of the back. "Stiles what's the plan now?" He asks. They all turn and stare at me patiently waiting for instructions.
I evaluate them for a minute. "Ethan, Aiden how do you guys feel?"
"Pretty spent but we'll help were we need to." Aiden replies after a moment of silent communication with Ethan.
I nod at them and turn to Jackson and Isaac. I notice that Isaac is now leaning against Jackson. "Isaac have your wounds healed?" I ask reaching to lift his shirt. Jackson growls unconsciously while glaring at my hand. Isaac shakes his head answering my question. I pull back and look at them again. "Alright Danny, take Ethan, Aiden, and Isaac to make sure there is no permanent damage. Jackson, Lydia come with me were going to find Derek. We'll meet up at the loft afterwards alright." I order.
End of Flashback
I snap out of my thoughts and notice the empty mug in my hand. I didn't realize that I drank it. I get up and put the mug in the sink. I head towards the bed. I shuck off my pants and yank off my shirt. I crawl into the bed next to Derek. He shifts and wraps his arms around me. I relax into his arms and quickly fall asleep.
Flashback
Jackson, Lydia, and I start to search the building for Derek after Danny departs with the twins and Isaac. We walk around aimlessly for a few minutes before I realize that we're being stupid. I stop with my realization. Jackson and Lydia walk a couple more steps before they realize I stopped. "Jackson can you find Derek's scent?" Jackson sniffs the air for a moment before taking off. Lydia and I sprint after him.
We run for a few minutes before Jackson stops in an open doorway on the other side of the building. We come to a stop in the doorway to find Derek with a girl in his arms. She's asleep or unconscious, but I can't tell. "Derek?" I ask form the doorway.
He looks up having not noticed our arrival until then. "Stiles?" He asks confused.
"Derek who is she? What happened?" I question.
"Cora. Her name is Cora. She's my sister." He replies still confused. "I thought she was dead."
I step into the room. "Okay. How about we get out of her and get her to Deaton's and make sure she's okay." I turn to Jackson and Lydia. "Why don't you guys go bring the car around then we can get out of here." The nod and walk away towards an exit. "Der? Is she unconscious?" I ask him?
Derek looks up at me then back at Cora. "Yes." He said unsurely. "Deucalion said she's been like this for almost a year. They found her in South America. She's been alive this whole time. She's been alive for the last six years. How did we not know she was alive? How did she even escape the fire?" After that all his questions became incoherent. Luckily Jackson ran in to help get Cora into the car.
Once everyone is in the car, Lydia is driving with Jackson in shotgun and Derek, Cora and I in the back, we go to Deaton's. Once we get there Derek carries Cora to the back of Deaton's clinic. "What happened to her?" he asks preparing to examine the girl on the table.
"I found her like this." Derek replies. "Deucalion was trying to escape with her, but left her behind to escape. He said she put herself in this state when the captured her. Can you get her out of it?"He asks.
Deaton soaks in all the information Derek just threw at him. "Okay well, I have to figure out what she did to get into this state before I can reverse it. How about you guys go home and leave me to it and come by in the morning to see what I've found."
"No" Derek throws back. "I'm not leaving her alone. I already lost her once before I'm not going to lose her again." I grab Derek's hand and yank him out of the room.
"Derek I understand you just found out that your sister is alive but you're no good to her like this. You need to go home and bond with your pack and make sure they're okay. Cora isn't going anywhere right now. This is probably the safest place for her right now. It would be best to get out of Deaton's way and let him do his job. I may not trust him but he's her best chance right now." I reprimand. "Go say good bye to your sister and let's go to the pack."
Derek nods and does as told. Then Lydia leads the way back to her car and to the loft. I pull out my phone to check on everyone. I notice I have three missed calls and eight texts. There are two from Danny, two from My Dad, and three from Isaac.
From HackerBoy: Deaton said Erica and Boyd are fine; Nothing that will take more than a day to heal with some pack bonding.
From HackerBoy: Heading back to the bank to get you. Erica and Boyd are at the loft with your Dad.
From TheOldMan: Finished my shift heading to the loft.
