Signs - TW x TMR

Chapter six

Outside, the were-creatures used their super hearing to listen in to the strangers conversation. All while wondering how they know Stiles' and why he was hanging out with them, and not his 'pack'.

As far as they knew, he didn't have any other friends.

The eavesdroppers quickly warned their friends as they heard Stiles' and the others moving towards the door, after they said something about ending 'wicked'...whatever that meant.

Thomas stepped out of his house, walking towards Jorge who had just pulled up in Bertha, with the other survivors following, carrying the supplies they had been tasked to get. They all put the gear in the back. He waited for everyone to get in, before climbing in the back seeing as Brenda had taken shotgun.

Before he could get in, however, a hand had been placed on his shoulder. He didn't need to turn around to know it was Scott. He groaned, getting flashbacks from last night. "Haven't you already done this, Scott?"

"Where are you going?" he asked, ignoring Thomas' question.

Thomas didn't answer, because he didn't hear, and he still had his back to Scott, so lip reading is out of the question. Plus it was still early and therefore a little too dark for him. He shrugged off the hand still touching him and stepped on the tire, ready to climb into the truck. 

"Hey, hey!" Scott yelled, but Thomas ignored him, settling down next to Fry, who smiled at him. "Stiles!" 

Minho finally had enough of his shouting and yelled back, "What!?"

"Where are you going?" the werewolf repeated. 

"To kill someone." 

The pack looked taken aback by the bluntness of his words. "Who?"

"None of your business."

"Come on, we could help."

Thomas nudged Fry. What's he saying? He hoped that the faint light of the rising sun would be enough for him to see the signs. 

It apparently was as he signed back, He wants to help.

Thomas almost laughed. No.

He's pretty insistent. 

Oh my god, Thomas thought, rolling his eyes. "Scott, no."

"Why not?" Scott asked, and Thomas didn't need to hear him to know those were his next words.

"Because you don't kill, and if you want to survive out there, where those things are, you need to kill." 

"No, we don't, we'll just knock them out or something."

Minho was so done. "Fine, come if you want to die."

"Take that blue jeep over there," Jorge said, pointing to Roscoe. He thought that was the only vehicle besides Bertha that could survive in the Scorch. "Bring something to cover up, the sun will burn bare skin."

Thomas turned to Jorge with a look that said 'are you kidding me?' "That's my jeep," he whispered. 

"Whatever, start driving, Jorge." Brenda was getting impatient and annoyed that the McCall pack had put them behind schedule. 

He drove off, not checking to see if the supernaturals were following or not, none of them really caring. 

Thomas was the most against the idea, seeing as he didn't care for the group and thought they were just going to slow them down. Plus, Scott's 'no killing' rule was going to get them all killed. He wouldn't risk his family getting hurt just because of some stupid Alpha. He'd kill Scott if he needed to in order to protect the survivors, without hesitation. 

Another reason he didn't want them going was because he didn't want them to know about his past, his trauma. He knew they wouldn't care, they would just brush it off, or say something like 'I've had it worse'. They were like that for some reason. 

He knew that they were shitty friends. They didn't notice that he had come back different. He doubted they even noticed he was missing until they needed help with an upcoming threat. He doubted they even looked for him for more than two months. He knows they didn't notice his hearing problem. He also knows that they aren't coming because they want to help, but are coming because they want to stop the cranks from killing (turning) people and to stop the Gladers and Scorchers from killing the cranks.

The upside though, was that they more people they had, the more people could fight against WICKED, which was good, because Thomas thought WICKED would have more security than last time, to stop the chance of another break in.

Thomas had no choice but to let the pack come.

Minho was also against the idea, him too seeing the pack as a liability. He knew the pack weren't as in shape as the others, even the ones like Gally and Fry hadn't ran before they broke out of the maze. He knew they could all outpace the supernaturals even with their superhuman speed. Lydia was just a human with screaming powers, she would be the slowest, yet she was still only a little slower than the were-creatures.

Another person who hated the idea of the McCall pack going, was Gally. He had heard stories from Thomas about the packs' fighting skills and techniques, and he was less than impressed. Most of the time, the only way they beat a villain, was because Thomas, Stiles at the time, had managed to figure out a way to outsmart it, and a more powerful being had killed them. 

Gally knew that they basically only had their claws and teeth, with the exception of Kira with her sword and Lydia with her scream, meaning they had to get really close to the cranks to hurt them (because of Scott's stupid no killing rule) and by then, they'd have been bit, and it's safe to assume they aren't immune. 

All three looked at each other, all silently agreeing that if they become a burden, they'd drop them.

Thomas looked out the back, watching the sign that says 'Welcome to Beacon Hills' on one side and 'You are now leaving Beacon Hills' on the other, slowly fade away.

He felt slightly bad about leaving his father behind without an explanation, but then he thought about what WICKED would do to him if they knew where Thomas went, and felt glad he didn't.

He saw his blue jeep following behind, and he sighed. He hoped that there would be little complaining and that they had brought comfortable shoes and clothes, because this was going to be a long journey.

If you don't know who it is by now, then what are you even doing here?

Anyways, I'm back with another chapter, and they are off to defeat WICKED.

I like to think it'll get more interesting but i'm dumb af so I doubt it
