What's left of me ( Isaac Lahey fanfic)

53. The Benefactor

People started gathering around the parking since there was a loud thud noise when Sean fell off. I told Scott to take care of Liam while I called Dad here. Scott started to go near Liam but he was afraid and he started crawling back so I pushed Scott back to talk to Liam. "Kid, listen to me very carefully, I know you are scared and have many questions but right now I need you to trust us. You know that guy was ready to kill you and we were just trying to protect you. People have seen Sean's body and soon someone will call the police here and you're in no condition to talk to them, so please just trust us." 

"You, I trust but not him. He literally bit me and his eyes changed color and he had claws..." 

Liam started in a shaky voice but I stopped him in the middle, "Liam, I know you're scared, but you trust me, right? Scott will not bring any harm to you, he's one of the kindest people I know, and trust me if there was a way to save Sean there he would have." Then we heard sirens so Scott and Liam went out from the back door while I stayed on the roof. Soon Dad and Deputy Parrish got there with some other deputies. 

"Ruth, oh my god, you're bleeding, and what the hell happened here?" 

Dad asked inspecting my head so I took him aside and explained the whole thing except for the part where Scott might have accidently turned Liam. Then Dad sent me to get checked up. After getting stitches, I went back to Dad and saw Derek there. 

"Hey kiddo, you okay?" 

He asked patting my head and I nodded in response. Then he went near Sean's body and told us that Sean was a Wendigo. "I assumed that from the way he looked but from what I remember, Mr. Argent told us they haven't been in Beacon Hills for a long long time, so how's this possible?" I asked. 

"The family must've been well-hidden. Or they must've had a creepy dungeon of dead people to munch on quietly."

Derek explained. After that, I asked Dad if it would be okay if I left as Stiles and Scott were waiting for me, Dad nodded so I started walking out but then Dad stopped me, 

"Wait, honey. It's quite late and you don't have a car not to mention a mouthless axe murderer is on the loose so it won't be safe for you to go alone." 

Then he called Parrish and asked him to drop me off at Scott's place. 

"Ruth listen, I know that Sheriff must've warned you to carry a taser and\or a Pepper spray with you, given the increasing numbers of murders, but I still wanted to make sure, so, here take these, I have extra." 

He said handing me two cans of pepper spray and a taser. "Thanks a lot Deputy Parrish." I said with a smile which he returned but just as I was about to get out he stopped me, 

"One more thing, I don't know what it is with you and your friends, how you guys always end up in situations like these but let me remind you, you were very lucky toady that with the axe murderer lurking around, all you got is few stiches, so please be careful and please tell all your friends to be careful as well and not roam around crime scenes."

"I understand, and again thanks a lot for these and also thank you for caring." I said and got out of the car. Stiles also got there at the same time, Parrish waved at him from the car and then drove off. Then Stiles came in front of me and saw my face and as expected he went bonkers. "Sty, I am fine, it's just a few stiches and you know I have survived way worse." He nodded and as we went inside he asked me why I had pepper spray and Taser on me, I laughed and explained him everything and also how I wanted to tell Parrish that this is nothing in compassion of weapons I own but I didn't say anything because it was a very sweet gesture then I handed those to Stiles, "Maybe you should keep this. I mean they are way better than a baseball bat." He wasn't amused by the idea but regardless he took those and we finally went to Scott's room. But when he opened the door, Scott was sitting on his bed alone. "Scotty, where is Liam?" I asked getting suspicious.
