Stiles POV: "Scales? Like a fish" Jackson said not believing a word.
"No more like a reptile. Um and uh your claws have this liquid that paralyzes people and you have a tail" Stiles said as he lounged with his feet up in the truck.
"I have a tail?"
"Yeah you have a tail."
"Hm does it do anything?"
"No not that I know of."
Jackson lunged a little forward but Stiles didn't flinch.
"Can I use it to strangle you?"
"Yeah you still don't believe me. All right the night of the semi-final game what did you do right after?"
"I went home."
"Are you sure about that?"
"Yes you idiot what the hell else would I do?"
"You attacked me and Derek at the school and you trapped us in the pool. You also killed a mechanic… right in front of me by the way. That was lovely. And one of the Argent's hunters. Oh and last night you tried to kill Danny."
"Why would I want to kill my best friend?"
"Well that's what Scott's out trying to figure out now."
"Hm well maybe he should be trying to figure out is how he's going to pay for a lawyer when I prosecute your asses all the way to jail!"
"All right well tell me this. On the night of the full moon what happened?"
"Nothing. Nothing happened."
Stiles was in the middle of sending Jackson's parents another text when Allison showed up and scared him.
"Oh my god!" Stiles said as he jumped.
"They know" Allison told him.
"What?"
"They know Jackson's missing."
"No they can't I've been texting his parents since last night. They don't have a clue."
"My grandfather told me his parents went to the police. They know."
Then Stiles looked at Jackson's phone in his hand and held it with two fingers far away from his body as he panicked.
"Chuck that" he told Allison trying to hand her the phone.
Then he got in the van and turned on the police radio.
"All available units proceed to Beacon Hills Preserve as instructed. Proceed with caution until Sheriff Stilinski's arrival. Proceed with caution" the dispatch said.
Stiles started it up before placing a call on Jackson's phone.
"Where are we going?" Allison asked.
"Somewhere very far from this" Stiles said as he threw the ringing phone out the window.
Then Stiles drove away. Once in a safer location Scott met up with them.
"If Jackson doesn't remember being the kanima he's definitely not gonna remember stealing Danny's tablet" Scott told them after explaining all he got from Danny.
"Why would he steal the thing if he doesn't even know what's on it?" Stiles asked.
"What if someone else took it?" Allison asked.
"Then somebody else knows what he is" Stiles told her.
"Which could mean someone's protecting him" Scott said.
"Like the bestiary says 'the kanima seeks a friend' right?"
"Okay hold on so somebody watches Jackson make a video of himself turning into the kanima and then just erases part of it so he wouldn't know? I mean who would do that?" Stiles asked.
"Somebody who wanted to protect him?" Allison guessed.
"There's something else. You said the only thing you found online about the kanima is that it goes after murderers. What if that's actually true?" Scott said.
"Well no it can't be. Tried to kill all of us remember? I don't know about you two but I haven't murdered anybody lately" Stiles said.
"But I… I don't think that it was actually trying to kill us. Remember when we were at Isaac's the first time it just went right by us didn't it?" Scott asked Allison.
"You're right it just ran off."
"And it didn't kill you in the mechanic's garage" Scott told Stiles.
"Well yeah but it tried to kill me and Derek in the pool" Stiles fired back.
"Did it?"
"It would've. It was waiting for us to come out."
After a second Scott asked. "What if it was trying to keep you in?"
Stiles was shocked. "Why do I feel so violated all of a sudden?"
"Because there's something else going on. We don't know what it is. We don't know anything about what's going on with Jackson or why someone's protecting him" Scott said.
"All right I got it. Kill Jackson problem solved" Stiles said.
They both looked at him.
"He risked his life for us. Against Peter you remember that?" Scott said.
"Yes but what did we just find out? He got the bite from Derek. It's funny how he just got exactly what he wanted by supposedly risking his life for us it's funny" Stiles explained.
"Yeah it doesn't mean he's not still worth saving" Scott replied.
"It's always something with him though" Stiles said right back.
"He doesn't know what he's doing" Scott said getting a little mad.
"So what?"
"So I didn't either! You remember when I almost killed you and Jackson? I had someone to stop me. He has nobody."
"That's his own fault" Stiles said simply.
"Doesn't matter if we can save him we should try."
As the sun started to set Stiles left to go try and talk to Lydia. When he couldn't find her he went back to Scott and Allison only to find them asleep and naked in the backseat and Jackson gone.
"You guys might wanna come take a look at this" Stiles said after waking them up.
He showed them the empty van.
"I have to tell me father… Scott. He's going to kill someone" Allison begged Scott.
"Okay tell him tell him everything" Scott said.
"Scott I gotta tell mine too" Stiles said.
"This is all my fault" Scott said turning away.
"It's not but we have to tell them. We're just a bunch of teenagers. We can't handle this" Allison said.
"You're right."
"How you gonna make your dad believe all this?" Allison asked Stiles.
"I don't know."
"He'll believe me" Scott said turning around his eyes glowing with his wolf.
Allison went home to tell her dad and Scott and Stiles went to talk to Stiles' dad.
"Could you buzz us in? I gotta see my dad" Stiles told the deputy at the station.
"Scott, Stiles. Perfect timing. Have you met Jackson's father, Mr. David Whitmore? Esquire" Sheriff Stilinski said showing them into a room where Jackson was sittng with his father.
"That means lawyer" Jackson said smiling.
Turns out Jackson got a restraining order on them.
Selene POV: Slowly Selene came into her house only to stumble and keep going. Isaac rushed over to help her.
"Oh my God what happened?"
"Jackson…got away…from capture…I tried…to stop him" she said out of breath as her body fought the kanima venom.
Isaac set her on the couch scratches and blood covered her body.
"How are you able to move? Did Jackson kill someone?"
"My body is fighting the venom a few scratches... not enough to incapacitate me but a lot seems... to make me slower and stumble. No he didn't kill anyone... he ran to the Sheriffs' station and changed back" Selene explained.
Gently Isaac picked her up as she started to doze off.
"It's okay I got ya" Isaac said when she growled a little.
He carried her up the stairs to the shower turned it on and stepped inside with her. He slowly wiped the blood off her face. Once the water stopped running red water and turned clear he stepped out and quickly without a lot of peeking pulled off her ripped bloody wet clothes and wrapped her in a big towel.
The whole time her eyes were slits barely open and barely conscious. He laid her on his bed and changed out of his wet clothes and came back to lay with her.
Pack means comfort strength safety which is what he gave her. Him being pack and near also gave her more energy and strength to heal faster… pack bond. Soon both were asleep and her wounds closed up quickly the venom also gone.
~Hope you like this new chapter and how I describe being part of a pack its a bond it strengthens and heals its safty and protection comfort~
