Ever Since I Met You (A Stiles Stilinski Love Story)

Tattoo

Junior year, here I come. Here's a quick update: over the summer I visited my aunt and uncle in New York City, New York, since they were the only family I had left. While I was gone, Jackson left Beacon Hills to go with his dad to London. Before he left, Derek taught him everything he neded to know to survive as a werewolf.  Also...Peter Hale's back. Don't quite understand how, but he's alive and weak, which I guess is a good thing. The bad thing is that Boyd and Erica are missing and a pack of Alphas has invaded Beacon Hills. Allison broke up with Scott and haven't talked about all summer. But I've had many phone calls with both Allison and Lydia over the summer. While on my two month visit, Stiles wouldn't stop pestering me. He called me almost every night. We weren't officially a couple, at least, according to Stiles. Our kiss was the result of a crazy night with Stiles playing lacrosse on the field the very first time and eventually getting kidnapped. He told me he was planning something big to ask me out, so  I was still waiting for him to ask me...somewhat impatiently. This summer was a time of recovery, after all the crazy things that have happened...and more was yet to come.

The night before my first day of junior year at high school, I was in bed, looking at pictures of my New York trip. My aunt and uncle took me to all the popular tourist sights and bought me so much stuff, they were like grandparents spoiling their grandchildren. I missed having family, but I would miss my friends here at Beacon Hills even more if I left. I was excited to see them all tomorrow at school.

Just then, I sensed something nearby. It was the same feeling I had when I was drawn to Peter when he was an Alpha...but this was stronger. It had to be coming from the Alpha pack. And just like before, I couldn't ignore the feeling, so I reluctantly got out of bed, changed into a dark blue t-shirt, black leather jacket, blue jeans, and tennis shoes. I walked out of the house and allowed my senses take over, turning into a white wolf to run into Beacon Hills Preserve. I followed my instincts until I found myself in a small open area. I turned back into human form, slowly walking around. That's when I heard multiple heartbeats start to converge on me.

The first one was a tall, buff man, trying to attack from behind, but I easily ducked and he landed on his face in front of me. I took advantage of him, lifting him in the air and tossing him aside, aiming for a large tree. He hit it with a loud crack and he crumbled to the floor. At that moment, two sets of claws impaled me on both sides and I howled in pain. I looked to see a pair of twins, eyes glowing red. Mustering some strength, I gave out a powerful growl, pushing the twins into each other, knocking their heads together and they fell before me. My wounds began to heal awhen I was slashed in the back by a barefooted lady, baring her fangs ferociously. We went back and forth, scratching each other up before I decided to turn into a Kanima, swiping my claws across the back of the neck, instantly paralyzing her. I turned human once more, only to be tackled to the ground by the first man. The twins came to help, but that only made me angry, so I decided to use my last resort. I burst into flames, turning into a phoenix. I've only done it once before, scaring Stiles and leaving me...exhausted. The three Alphas screamed in agony as they were burned and immediately let go.  I dropped to my knees when I turned back, panting heavily when I heard someone start to clap. 

"Well, I must say...that was impressive," a man wearing sugnlasses said as he approached, tapping his stick that was primarily used for blind people. I slowly lifted my head to get a better view. "So, you are the unknown creature of Beacon Hills. A young, talented female who has no idea who she is...or who she can become."

"Who...who are you?" I asked weakly, getting to my feet without stumbling.

"Oh, you will know soon enough, young one. After all, I know what you truly are."

With that, he walked away with the rest of his injured pack, leaving me behind. I ached all over as I started to heal, some of my blood dripping onto the ground beneath me. I was about to walk home when a herd of frightened deer charged straight at me. I ran for my life, knowing I would run faster in my human form with all these injuries. I tried to heal myself faster, but I was too distracted. So, I focused on running, using up every ounce of energy I had left in my body. Soon enough, I ran out of the forest and tumbled onto a paved road. One deer jumped over me, straight down the road. I barely lifted myself off the ground to witness the deer run straight into a vehicle that had stopped in the middle of the road. I heard screams, and the familiar worried voices  of my friends. I forced myself to my feet, staggering towards them. I was only a few feet away when someone called out my name.
