Reincarnate [Isaac Lahey]

Chapter Fourteen

"Oh. Oh, they found Stiles!" Scott said from beside them and the group (Lena, Isaac, Peter and Derek) all glanced at him in acknowledgement of his words. They were stood in the Hale house and Peter was crouched in front of the stairs.

"I told you, I looked everywhere," Derek said as peter lifted up one of the boards and pulled out a briefcase.

"You didn't look here," he said with a smirk as he looked up to his nephew.

Derek rolled his eyes, "what is that, a book?"

Peter's face contorted into that of judgement as he scoffed at the younger Hale, "no, it's a laptop. What century are you living in?" Derek looked away exasperated whilst Lena glanced to the floor to hide her own amusement, "a few days after I got out of the coma, I transferred everything that we had. Fortunately, the Argents aren't the only ones who keep records."

Peter moved to the main room alongside Derek and Scott's phone rang out. Both Isaac and Lena glanced back at Scott before they followed after him leaving Scott to his own privacy.

"Hey, mom. I can't talk right now-"

"Oh, yeah? Well, I'm so freaked out that I can barely talk, either."

"What's wrong?"

"Something... Definitely something... I don't know what, but I think you're gonna want to see this for yourself."

"Are you sure you wanted to come with us?" Isaac asked as both he and Lena followed Scott and Melissa downstairs in the morgue where Jackson was being held (the current topic of conversation.

"Well it was either go with you or stay with them and since they were two men who one, tried to kill me and the other randomly decided to bite me like some feral cat...I think I'll go with you since you're with Scott and he's the only one who hasn't tried to stick his claws through my heart."

"Our preferred way is slashing your throat," he countered causing her to jam her elbow in his side.

They entered the room and Melissa guided them over to the body bag that was lying on the table. "So what is it?" Scott asked, and Melissa took in a breath before she unzipped the bag and all three of them were easily able to overcome their disgust and unease at seeing a dead body in favour of being entranced by the strange crystal gel-like prison that was forming over him.

"What's happening to him?" Scott asked, his brows furrowed as he tried to understand everything. The reality was none of them understood anything.

"I thought you were gonna tell me!" Melissa countered dragging her eyes away from the body so that she could look at her son, "is it bad?"

"It doesn't look good..." Isaac said.

The four of them stared for a little longer when suddenly Jackson's claws moved as if they were jerked, "whoa!" They all stepped back, just as Jackson jerked again.

"What's he doing?" Lena asked.

"Uh, mom, could you zip it up, please?" Scott asked.

"Okay. Okay, okay," she said as she inched closer and hesitantly reached out, "okay, here we go..." she repeated but the zip got stuck as Jackson's mouth opened and he hissed through his fangs. The three teens jumped back even further trying to melt into the wall.

"Mom, zip!"

"Okay, okay, okay, okay..."

Jackson never stopped jerking and hissing and soon he opened his eyes with black orbs, continuing to jerk and move. Soon the vision of him was blocked from Lena's view and instead her back was pressed against the wall and her eyes were only on Isaac's shirt sleeve, "zip! Zip, Mom! Zip! Zip!"
