2.6 Frenemy

Stiles, Scott, and I rushed after my adoptive brother Jackson. Allison had drove Lydia back home, to safety. Stiles got into Roscoe, Scott and I following shortly behind and drove after Jackson. Derek was still dealing with the fact that he was wrong and brought his betas back to his hiding place, for them to heal.

We reached a fence and Stiles slammed on the brakes, bringing Roscoe to an abrupt stop. I jumped out of the car. "What do we do now?" Stiles looked at me surprised as I jumped over the fence. Scott followed me shortly after as we ran after Jackson, the kanima.

We found Jackson standing in front of Gerard. Argent was a few feet away on the ground. Jackson ran away from Gerard. Gerard was a powerful hunter and he knew what he was doing. Scott looked over at Gerard before the two of us continued to chase Jackson. The two of us followed until we reached a club. The club that Danny would go to.

We couldn't see him anywhere. We hid against a wall, away from the hunters knowing that the hunters would go after any supernatural that he could get his hands on. Someone placed their hand on my shoulder causing for me to slap in response. I turned around to see Stiles groaning in pain.

"Oh my god. I'm so sorry. I thought you were-" I apologize franticly.

"-A hunter." Stiles supplies, "Yeah, I know. Did you see where it went?"

"We lost him." Scott informed him.

"What? You couldn't catch his scent?" Stiles snapped annoyed.

"I don't think he has one." Scott replied.

"All right, any clue where he's going?" Stiles sighed.

"To kill someone." Scott said simply and I glared at him.

"Scott." I snap.

"Ah. That explains the claws, and the fangs, and all that. Good. Makes perfect sense now." Stiles drawls sarcastically. Scott sent him a look and I just rolled my eyes. "What? Scott, come on. I'm 147 pounds of pale skin and fragile bone, okay? Sarcasm is my only defense."

"Just help me find it." Scott sighs.

"Not 'it.'" I snap, "He's Jackson. He's my brother."

"Yeah, I know. I-I know." Scott states.

"All right, but how does he know that?" Stiles asks.

"No one else saw him back at the house. I would've noticed them." I informed Stiles, "He already passed Derek's test, anyway, so we weren't looking at him."

"That's the thing, how did he pass the test?" Stiles asks.

"I don't know." Scott replied.

"Maybe it's like an either-or thing. I mean, Derek said that a snake can't be poisoned by it's own venom, right? When's the kanima not the kanima?" Stiles suggests.

"When it's Jackson." I nod.

Stiles backed away from the wall, looking up, I looked at him confused before doing the same. "Uh, guys." Stiles announced. Scott followed our gaze as we saw Jackson climbing into a window upstairs. "See that?"

"We're not blind, Stiles." I say annoyed.

"He's inside." Scott stated.

"What's he gonna do in there?" Stiles asks me and I nodded.

"I know who he's after." I stated.

"Who?" Scott asked.

"Danny." I stated.

Scott and Stiles looked over to where I was looking. Danny was entering the club. We walked over to the back door and opened it, entering the loud club. The pounding music made Scott wince as he walked into the club. His enhanced hearing was no help.
