Admiring You | Scott McCall

Betrayl and Apologies

"Scott, you have to know something about Allison." "What is it, Derek?" "She was there and helped in the torture of both of us." "What she do?" "Not much to me just kept turning up the electricity. I tried to tell her that morally, what she was doing was wrong. I smelt guilt on her until..." "Until what Derek?" "Until Kate mentioned Ambrosia, she was eager to torture her spent a good 30 minutes before she had to get ready for the formal. Scott, she begged Allison for help, and she refused to her face. Allison may not be a full hunter or completely Kate, but she has Kate's vidictiveness." "I'm so sorry she did this to you two, Derek. I fought you, betrayed you, and hurt you over her." I did feel horrible if I had heeded his warning ⁰à neither would've been hurt like they were. "Love makes you do crazy things I should know. But you found your way out of the Argent's hold and straight into a Salvatore's hold Scott. Good for you, man. But I do think it was too easy." "Awe man, you said it. Something bad is going to happen now. But also nothing had been easy, lying to everyone, avoiding Allison's father, full moon's, being controlled against my will too." "You're right." Then some irony ensued. An arrow was shot into Derek's shoulder, and as I looked up, I gasped, seeing Allison and Kate. I mean, I knew she was training Allison. But I never expected Allison to be the one hurting me. I hear Kate tell Allison to shoot the leg. The arrow is released into his leg while I stand their shocked. I then quickly helped him break the arrows because removing the head would take too long and do too much damage. He wouldn't be able to heal fast enough to escape. A bolt arrow was released temporarily blinding me as I didn't cover my eyes when he warned me, too. I blinked, gaining my vision back, and once I did, I saw them coming towards us. I shook my head in disappointment and betrayl read in my eyes. This caused her to pause, and Kate stopped to look at her. It gave me enough time for Derek to help me up and us to run. "We have to warn Ambrosia she should be better now, but that depends if she had enough blood bags." Suddely we're both grabbed and moved out of the way super fast as an arrow flies by and hits a tree that was aimed for me. She then sped us to the house. "How did -" "Something happened to my eyes they went blurry, and I felt like someone had flashed my eyes with bright lights. So I came to find you guys glad I did." "Who's shooting at you." "Kate and Allison." I saw her panic and grabbed her, putting her head to my chest. "You won't be alone or get taken this time, Amberosia. I promise I'll protect you now. Go hide upstairs until the time is right. You're still a little pale, are there any more blood bags." "Yeah, four. Two more should get me fully charged up. I want to keep the extra two for after the fight so I'm not weak." "You aren't weak Ambrosia you were weakened and brutally tortured. You are standing here, ready to fight the people who tortured you. That makes you the strongest person I know." "Derek -" "I wasn't tortured to the extent you were. Trust me, if I were you, I would've turned it off." "Turned it off wh-" "We can go over it later. Let's get into the house and leave. Fighting is a bad idea." But it was too late. Derek collapsed, taking me down with him. Scott, Ambrosia! Go!" But suddenly Ambrosia caught an arrow then another. Finally, a third one she hit away with the other two. "Allison shoot the wolf Ambrosia is too fast to shoot for either of us. "Allison, I can explain!" "Stop lying! For once stop lying. " "You're something else, Allison. You're blind if you think he was lying to you for selfish reasons." "Shut up Ambrosia you stole what was mine. You deserved what was given." "Allison neither one of us could control that we are mates. We were literally made for each other. That's not my fault. You would have never worked out, no matter what he would end up with me. She's right Allison, it's not her fault either she didn't steal me. We were broken up before she came into my life. I was gonna to tell you the truth at the formal. I was going to tell you everything. Everything I did was to protect you. Also, I'm not the only one who lied. You looked me in the eyes and said you didn't know where Ambrosia was. The torture was on levels of war crimes, and you let it happen. Her legs, fingers, and tongue were cut off. Her eyes were gouged out, and her skin had been burned and melted off. Everything I said and did before and after our break up was to -" "Protect me? I don't believe you." Ambrosia cut in. "Then you are more selfish than I ever thought possible. There were times in our relationship when I was jealous, but I never let jealousy rule me. I didn't have the urge to hurt you not once. But you let me be tortured for days willingly to." "Shut it!" "Thank god. Now shoot him before I have to shoot myself." "You... you said we were just going to catch them?" "We did that. Now we're going to kill them." "How naive can one person be. You watched and helped her torture innocents. Just because they were different. The fact you thought she just was just capturing us. You are stupider than I ever believe you to be. Suddenly, Kate shot Derek, and then Ambrosia knocked her down. I saw what Derek saw satisfaction that Ambrosia was hurt. "See? It's not that hard." Allison was looking at her aunt in disbelief. Ambrosia was right about Allison she had always been. She was naive, gullible, and selfish, but I didn't see. "Oh no, I know that look it's the your going to have to do it yourself look." "Kate, Kate, what are you doing." The bullet went off, and Allison screamed, but as I braced for it, it never came. Allison gasped, and I saw Ambrosia standing in front of me. She collapsed next to me, a hole through her head. It was healing slowly because it did a lot of damage. She threw Allison away, who tried to go help Ambrosia. The gun is held up and pointed at my head. One bullet goes into my head well the side and doesn't kill me but isn't healing. The next one goes and hits my artery in my leg and the final bullet to my heart. I would be dead within 30 seconds, 2 minutes at most, if I'm lucky. Each bullet laced with wolfsbane. I grabbed Ambrosia's hand. That's when Chris appeared.  "Kate, what have you done! You did it again, and I know what you did. I know you have the stake that can kill Ambrosia. She hasn't done anything wrong. She drank from blood bags and her mate that's completely legal it's not kill worthy. Put the gun down." "I did what I was told to do." "No one asked you to murder innocent people. There were children in that house. Ones that were human." I felt the life leaving me, and I guess as a witch and my mate, she did too. "Scott, I have to do it. Scott, you're going to die. If I don't, I feel the life leaving you." "Do it." While Kate was arguing with Chris, she bit into her wrist and leaned over. Fed me her blood and bit me injecting a liquid that made me feel warm and fuzzy through the wounds on my mark spot. She took some blood, too. "No! Don't do that!" Kate says, shooting her, causing her to collapse. Kate raised the stake but was suddenly being held at Gun Point by her brother. "Look what you're doing. You're holding a gun at a 16-year-old boy. With no proof, he has killed anyone and a vampire who, while here, hasn't harmed anyone and poses no threat to anyone. Who has done more good than bad. We go by the code. Nous chassons ceux qui nous chassent." Allison translate it to."We hunt those who hunt us." "Kate ignores him, pulling the trigger back just enough where it's not going to shoot but is close to if she pulls it even a bit more." "Your girlfriend may have healed you, but I'm just going to shoot you again." She pulled the trigger, and it enters me as Chris shoots at the tree next to her head. "Put the gun down, or I'll put you down." "You know Allison, your dad is kind of hot." Allison actually laughs. "Lydia has said the same thing to me. I'm sorry, like, really sorry I wasn't even that jealous. Kate manipulated me to inhance and grow my jealousy. I should've done something, but I was scared and struggling with the family secret. Most of all, I was scared of my aunt. I don't think it registered. Not the feeling of me being scared of my aunt, she's family. I'm sorry, Derek, more than you will ever know." Ambrosia, surprisingly, was the one to speak up. "It's ok. I should've been slightly more understanding, I'm a vampire, so torturing someone is useless for me. I can just compell them to tell me what I want to know. You're human. You don't have that ability or luxury. But even so torture you knew was wrong. It's going to take time for Scott and I to forgive you or trust you." "I understand." "Awe isn't this sweet look Chris she's apologizing to them." She finally puts the gun down when another bullet goes even closer to her head. She looks over and sees the bullet push its way out of me. Just like Ambrosia's did. Derek was healing because she had picked out the bullet and arrowhead, giving him blood to heal. "Sorry, Derek, for shooting you with Arrows." "Yeah well they were nice shots, so I give you props." Suddenly, everyone hears the door creak open. "Allison, get back." Kate points the gun at the door, and so does Chris. I stand up along with Ambrosia, who shifts in front of Allison. She is stronger than any of us around her. Her eyes shift to red, and her veins show underneath. She bends down sucking energy from the ground. "What is that?" Allison asks, clearly scared." "The Alpha." Ambrosia and I say at the same time. "And what are you Ambrosia what did you do to the ground?" "I'm a 1,000- year-old heritic, the original all heritics come from my descendants. Also, Kate killed the Hales spilled magical blood, and I siphoned the magic from that."
