Vicious ~Derek Hale~

Chapter Seven

   I was currently in Stiles' jeep heading to one of the local pools. Lydia had called and told us that she had found a dead body. When we got there Lydia was sitting on the ground on her knees hugging herself close. We both jumped out of the jeep running over to her. Lydia looked up at us with stained cheeks from where she was so scared she was crying. Lydia started explaining how she found the body to Stiles.
        "Okay well, I'll call my dad." Stiles said beginning to take out his phone.
        "I already did." Lydia mumbled. Stiles looked at her with wide eyes. "What? I'm supposed to call you whenever I find a dead body?" she questioned.
        "Yes! That's exactly what you're supposed to do!" he said. He called someone on his phone who I was guessing was Scott.
        "Yeah we're all okay but they killed someone Scott." Stiles said. Stiles gave a little more information and hung up the phone. He walked closer to the body and noticed something. I walked over to him and touched his arm which made him flinch. I pulled my hand back as he looked back at me.         "Sorry." he muttered. I nodded my head and just looked at Stiles as he studied something. 
        "What is it Stiles?" I asked interested. He looked back at me and I could hear him gulp.
        "He was a virgin." he said pointing at the purity ring the lifeguard was wearing. I raised my eyebrows at him and he sighed. "So was Heather." he said sniffing a bit. My face softened as I remembered the story Stiles had told me. I walked over to him and gave him a hug. Not to long after Stiles' father and a few more deputies and an ambulance arrived and Scott arrived after. I walked over to Scott and he rolled down the window to the car he was in. I looked over to the drivers side and saw a man who intimidated me immediately. 
        "Ella, this is Chris Argent." Scott introduced. I smiled at the man.
        "Nice to meet you Mr. Argent." I said with a slight smile.
        "Same to you Ella." he said back
        "When did you get here?" Scott questioned.
        "I came with Stiles." I said pointing to Stiles' jeep. He uttered an 'oh'.
        "Well get in. We're going to help track Boyd and Cora." Scott said jerking his thumb to the back seat. I raised an eyebrow and shrugged getting in the back seat. We drove to where Derek and Isaac Lahey were standing. I gave a slight smile to the both of them and they returned them. Mr. Argent took out a bag from the back seat and threw it on the ground. He unzipped the bag and took out something that sort of looked like one of those little lights that you stick in the ground to light a pathway.
        "We use these to usually ward off werewolves. They have a high pitched sound that only werewolves can hear and is usually quite painful." Mr. Argent explained turning it on. Immediately a high pitched screech came to my ears which made me drop to the ground and cover my ears in pain.
        "No kidding." Isaac muttered. Mr. Argent looked at all of us and turned the device off and I stood up shaking my head a bit. He threw each of us a couple of them and kept the rest.
        "Maybe we can lure them into something that has a closed locked door." Mr. Argent said. I looked at Scott and he nodded.
        "How about the school?" Scott said. "There can't be anyone at the school this late, can there?" he questioned. I shook my head.
        "Everyone would be at home around this time, sleeping." I said to them all.
        "How about the boiler room? It has a pretty solid door." Isaac put in. We all nodded and went our separate ways. I placed all of my little stick things in the ground and ran to the school where I met up with Derek and Scott. Not to long later Mr. Argent and Isaac showed up. 
        "Okay so we need someone inside to lure them down to the boiler room." Scott said looking around at all of us. I nodded in agreement. 
        "I'll go." I said volunteering. 
        "I will too." Derek said looking down at me. I nodded and Derek and I walked into the school followed by Scott and we all stood there waiting for Boyd and Cora to show up.
        "So, who's this Cora girl? I know Boyd but you didn't mention a Cora." I said curiosity taking me over.
        "She's my younger sister. I thought she died when my family all did." he said looking straight at the door. I gave him a slight smiled and put my hand on his arm.
        "She'll be okay. So will Boyd. We'll trap them until sun up. They'll both be okay." I tried soothing. He smiled down at me slightly and nodded. We both heard growls and we took our stance getting ready. Just in case I had my claws out and my eyes glaring their usual red and took a defensive stance. We saw Boyd and Cora enter the school and they looked scared for a split second and then growled. I retracted my claws and my eyes turned back to normal.
        "Come and get us." Scott muttered but they were still able to hear. and they ran full speed ahead of us. I was behind the two boys and got slammed into a locker by Cora. I closed my eyes and opened them revealing their alpha red and growled at her. She stepped back from me and took a fighting stance. I took a defensive stance and looked at her and where the boys sped off too. I followed where they went to the boiler room and ran down the stairs with Cora following me. I ran into the boiler room and someone pulled me to the side and put their hand over my mouth. I looked up to see Derek and looked next to him to see Scott. Derek let go of me and we stood there waiting for Boyd and Cora to walk in. As soon as we did and they were away from the door we made a mad dash out of the door and slammed it shut and locked it. We all pushed against it as bodies slammed into the door. The slamming stopped and Derek and I sat down on the stairs and panted. 
        "I can hear heartbeats." Scott muttered to us.
        "Both of them?" Derek questioned as he laid his head on the wall.
        "Actually, three." Scott said looking back at us. My eyes widened. I looked over at Derek who stood up. I followed suit and stood up. Derek walked to the door with a hand on the lock.
        "We can't go in there. They'll kill us." Scott said to Derek.
        "I know. That's why I'm going in alone." he said not taking his eye off the door. I looked at him like he was crazy. 
        "I'm going with you." I said. He looked at me and nodded slowly.
        "Close the door behind us." Derek commanded. Derek opened the door and we both ran in and the door closed and locked behind us. We looked in front of us to see Boyd and Cora and, Ms. Blake? I felt my claws come out and my eyes turn red. I looked at Derek who looked at me and nodded. We ran towards them. I knocked Cora out of the way and Derek knocked Boyd out of the way. Cora scratched at my stomach making claw marks and ripping my shirt. I returned the favor.
        "Cora! I don't want to hurt you!" I yelled at her as she tried attacking me again but I pushed her against a wall pinning her arm behind her back. She growled at me and spun in my grip and threw me to the ground. I stood up and took my stance as she charged after me. I blocked her claws and flipped her on the ground. She got up just as quick as she went down. I looked over at Derek and it looked like he was having a hard time. I looked back and Cora and kicked her in the stomach making her fall to the ground again. I ran over to Derek and Boyd before Cora could get up and knocked Boyd to the ground. Derek looked at me and I nodded.
        "You need to get out of here. They'll kill you." he said looking at me.
        "If I leave they'll kill you!" I countered.
        "Go Ella. I'll be okay." he said putting his hands on my shoulders. I felt a tear slip and all I could do was nod. I turned around to come face to face with Cora. She tried lashing out at me but Derek stood in front of me and blocked her. "Go!" he said. I ran past them and ran up the stairs to the door.
        "Scott! Open up its me!" I called. The door opened and I ran out and Scott closed the door again. I sat down on the stairs and held my side where Cora had slashed me. I pulled up my shirt to see three claw marks on my side. 
        "That looks bad." I heard from behind me. I looked behind me to see Isaac. I shrugged and pulled my shirt down.
        "It'll heal." I said sniffing.
        "Where's Derek?" Isaac asked. I pointed to the door and he ran to the door putting his ear up to it. 
        "It's quiet." Isaac said listening closely.
        "How many heart beats?" Scott questioned.
        "Four." he replied. Scott and I both ran to the door and Isaac opened it all of us running in. The first thing I saw was Derek on his knees and Cora and Boys on both sides of him laying on the ground. I sighed in relief and walked over to him. I sat on my knees and hugged Derek. He hugged back. He honestly looked like a mess. I sighed and stood up. He followed and looked at Scott and Isaac.
        "Get them out of here." Derek said to them. They nodded and went over to the unconscious werewolves. I looked down at me shirt and saw there was blood all over them. There is no way in hell I can walk into Ethan and Aiden's and go unnoticed. I looked over at Isaac who was trying to pick up Boyd. I laughed at him and went over to help.
        "Here." I said picking up Boyd's torso. He smiled at me.
        "Thanks." he said. I nodded and smiled at him and we walked out of the boiler room. We got outside and put them on the ground and they woke up a few minutes later. I looked down again seeing the blood stains and the slash marks. 
        "There is no way I can walk into Ethan and Aiden's without them noticing." I said to no one in particular. I looked up and everyone was staring at me. I looked back at them and shrugged. 
        "Come on. I'll take you to my house. I'm sure Allison has something you can borrow." he said ushering me to get in the car. I nodded and said my goodbyes and got in the car.
        "Thank you for helping Mr. Argent." I said looking at him.
        "It was no problem." he said keeping his eyes on the road. The rest of the ride was silent. When we got to the Argents' house we both walked in. "You can go on up and take a shower. I'll get Allison to get you some clothes." he said. I thanked him and went on my quest to find the bathroom. Once I found it I looked around for towels and I found them. I put them on the counter and jumped in the shower. Once I was done I got out and found that there were clothes sitting on the counter. I dried off and got dressed. I walked out of the bathroom and down the stairs. Once I did I saw Allison and her father sitting at a table. I walked over to them.
        "Thank you Allison." I said smiling at her. She looked over at me and smiled.
        "No thank necessary. Cora Hale dropped them off. She knew you were here and she wanted to say thank you." she said smiling at me. I tilted my head to the side and furrowed my eyebrows.
        "She said that she appreciated what you did for her. She said you saved her from killing her brother." Allison explained. I said 'oh' and stood there quietly.
        "Well again, thank you to the both of you but I have to get going." I said smiling to the both of them. They both nodded and said goodbye. I walked to the twins' apartment seeing as I wouldn't be able to go to school today because for some reason my side still hurt.
