Falling for an Alpha

Chapter 13

S2E12 - Master Plan - Part 2

"Where's Derek?" Argent asked after that the two betas set Jackson's body on the pavement.

The three of them turned to see a figure loping toward them. Moving with grace and speed, Derek leaped up as if to attack, but then flipped back down right to his feet with a low growl and a flash of his red eyes. From the corner of the building, Peter rolled his eyes to heaven.

"Somebody certainly enjoys making an entrance." He muttered and managed to make Sasha smile slightly.

"I'm here for Jackson. Not you." Argent said while the Alpha's gaze was focused on him.

"Somehow, I don't find that very comforting." He replied and approached the body bag.

"Where are they?" Scott asked the Alpha with concern.

"Who?" Argent questioned him.

"Peter and Sasha." The young beta responded without thinking that Argent didn't know who Sasha was.

Derek didn't reply and kneeled down by the body bag. He began to slowly unzip it to reveal Jackson. Sasha, who was hiding in the darkness with Peter, felt her heart break for the umpteenth time tonight.

"Okay, hold on a second. You said you knew how to save him." Scott said and took a step closer to him.

"We're past that." The Alpha quietly replied.  

"What about Sasha? She can't loose him all over again." He added and Derek felt his heart clench. He knew she was there and he knew how this was hurting her.

"Think about it, Scott. Gerard controls him now. He's made Jackson his personal guard dog. And he put all this in motion so that Jackson could become even bigger and more powerful. Sasha knows that. She knows it's the only solution." He replied sadly. 

"No..." Argent muttered with concern and they turned to look at him. "He wouldn't do that. If Jackson's a dog, then he's turning rabid. And my father wouldn't let a rabid dog live." He added.

"Of course not." Gerard suddenly said, stepping out of the shadows. "Something that dangerous, that out of-control... is better off dead." He added coldly.

All of a sudden, a hand sprung up from the body bad and claws dag into Derek's chest. The Alpha spat blood and roared in agony. Jackson, with scales on half of his body, stood and lifted Derek before throwing him into a steel wall. When he brutally slammed into it, Sasha pushed Peter away from her and ran towards the Alpha.

"Derek!" She whispered-shouted.

"You gotta leave Sasha." He murmured while opening his eyes. "You're not safe here." He added protectively, but she stayed with him and helped him standing up.

"Well done to the last, Scott. Like the concerned friend you are, you brought Jackson to Derek to save him. You just didn't realize you were also bringing Derek to me." Gerard said coldly.

An arrow soared past him and stabbed Isaac on his stomach and then a second one hit him in the leg. The young beta fell on the ground and Scott saw Allison slipped around a corner in the shadows.

"Allison..." He whispered shockingly before running towards Isaac and helping him.

Argent yanked his gun from its holster and started to shoot the Kanima. It took a bullet, but it didn't do anything to him and he slipped around the black SUV. Argent reloaded and fired a couple of times, trying to hit Jackson while Gerard had a slight smile on his face. Suddenly, the Kanima's tail snaked out, wrapped around his gun and threw the gun out of Argent's hands while the man went down.
