Following the Stars

The Beggining

"Are you sure we can handle this?" Danny asks the group
"Totally! It's only a coven of witches!" Stile replies, turning to flash a grin before returning to his computer.
"Just don't get hit by a spell" Allison added as she checks her weapons.
"You're not helping" Danny sighed.
"Lydia! What's your take?" Stiles asked.
"Well, they're probably amateurs, but something brought them here so we shouldn't treat them as such" She replied casually, not bothering to look up from her book. Allison chuckles beside her.
"And if they aren't amateurs?" Danny asked
"Then we kill them" Lydia snapped her book shut.
"Come on Danny!" Stiles shut down his computer and placed his hands on Danny's shoulders "We're team human! We got this!" That's what Stiles called them theses days, after everything that had happened they had fallen into an unlikely friendship (they were also totally more kick ass than werewolves anyway).
Danny frowned, clearly unsure.
"WE HAVE ALLISON!" He gestured to the dark haired girl on his bed who waved back with a knife in her hand
"WHO ARE WE?" Stiles asked.
"Team Human?" Danny replied with a sigh
"Yeah we are!" Stiles replied enthusiastically
"Can we go now?" Lydia sighed, glancing at Allison and rolling her eyes dramatically.
"Fine. Yes let's go get our asses kicked" Danny sighed as he watched the rest of the group pick up their weapons.
"That's the spirit" Stiles grinned, slapping the back of Danny's back.

"So explain to me again why our friends, you know the actual werewolves aren't taking care of this?" Danny asks from the back of the Jeep. Stiles looks up from the road to meet Allison's gaze in the rear-view mirror, the pair having a silent conversation
"Full moon for a start. Standard learning to control themselves followed by a lesson in wolf politics" Stiles replied after a minute.
"Also because Scott's an idiot" Lydia adds coolly, as she checks her nails. Allison's head snaps up suddenly causing Danny to startle in his seat. Lydia turns and rests her chin on the seat as Stiles pulls up to the edge of the reserve and shuts of the engine.
"He is Allison, he's immature and you deserve better"
"Can we not talk about this right now?" Allison sighed, ignoring the questiong gaze from Danny
"She has a point, we have witches to hunt" Stiles bangs the steering wheel, Allison shoots him a thankful smile as Danny and Lydia nod at one another and get out of the car, slamming them shut simultaneously.
Stiles walks to the hood of the Jeep and pulls out a map and a flash light from his backpack and spreading it across the hood.
"Okay so Derek said the cave was north of this point, so it's in this general area" Stiles pointed to a part of the map marked with red question marks.
"That's a good distance of ground to cover" Allison looks over his shoulder
"I'm not exactly dressed for walking" Lydia states, glancing down to her shoes as Stiles and Danny begin heading north.
"You're never dressed for walking" Allison chuckled as she slings her bow over her shoulder and starts after the boys.
"These are a small heel" Lydia defended as she tried to speed up to catch up to catch up to Allison, letting out a yell as she lost her footing and surged forwards, throwing her arms out to cushion her fall. A firm hand wraps around her wrist while another wraps around Lydia's waist. Lydia looks up to see Allison stood in front of her, her grin obvious even in the darkness
"You might want to invest in a good pair of flats" Allison chuckled
"Oh hush" Lydia shoved Allison's shoulder playfully, sending the girl back a few paces, her hand falling from Lydia's waist though Allison's grip on her wrist never faltered "I...May consider it though" Lydia added after a moment. In the distance they heard Stiles yell followed by a thud and laughter from Danny, the two girls turned to see Danny doubled over as Stiles pulled himself up from the ground.
"We should catchup to them" Lydia gestured at the scene with a laugh, her own embarrassment at falling forgotten.
"Yeah, those witches aren't going to hunt themselves" Allison laughed with a shake of her head. Lydia suddenly became aware that Allison was still holding onto her wrist, guiding her through the darkness.
After several minutes Lydia linked their hands together and closed the distance so they were walking side by side as they tried to catch up to the boys.
"Are you going to tell me why you broke up with Scott?" Lydia asked eventually.
"He broke up with me" Allison replied.
"Well, are you going to tell me why he broke up with you?" she asked.
"We don't have time" Allison whined.
"Stilinski!" Lydia yelled through the forest, waiting until the boy ahead stopped and turned, cocking his head to one side in question "How long till we get to where the coven is?"
"I don't know, like ten minutes?" He replied.
"Plenty of time" Lydia smiled sweetly. Allison let out a long sigh and stared ahead before glancing at the floor and kicking at the ground.
"Honestly, I think it was a long time coming, things changed, I love him...but, but it's more like sibling love now. Which sounds messed up" Allison shook her head with a sigh.
"A little" Lydia agreed "What did he say?"
"He said that things had changed and that I didn't love him any more and that was okay but it wasn't fair on either of us to stay in a relationship like that" Allison finished with a frown.
"What's wrong?" Lydia asked.
"Nothing" Allison shook her head "It was just the way he said it. Like he knew something I didn't. I don't know" she added with a sigh.
"If he broke up with you, then why is he acting like such a child?" Lydia asked, more to herself than anything as she thought back to the last few weeks, tension within the pack had become too much for some to handle. Erica, Isaac and Boyd had left town for a while, much to the annoyance of everybody else "Look, it's only until all this blows over" Isaac had defended "There's a weird energy in the air and it's making us dizzy."
They had left after that, Lydia winced to herself. The repercussions from the act would be immense (and not just in the form of angry schoolteachers and a mountain of work) Lydia suspected that part of the pack meeting (is it still a pack when himself and Scott are there?) was in order for Derek to smack some sense into the teen.
"It all works out in the end" Lydia shrugged "You really do deserve better Allison" Lydia smiled sweetly and squeezed Allison's hand for good measure, Allison returned her smile before turning her attention to the two boys in front of her who were waiting for them beside a fallen tree.
"I think we found the place" Stiles announced as they approached, Allison dropped Lydia's hand and moved so she was crouched beside Stiles
"What's the plan?" Danny asked.
"I'm thinking a movie and pizza?" Stiles suggested.
"Yeah, we'll see" Lydia dead panned.
"I was talking about the witches..." Danny sighed, watching as Allison loaded an arrow into her bow and held it up, testing her aim.
"Oh right" Stiles rubbed his head with a chuckle "I don't know, we sneak in, kill them. Don't get killed?" He looked to Allison for help
"I'll take point" she stated.
