Deucalion was never after Derek.

Scott had always been his intended victim as Scott, himself, had explained. He was becoming something known as a 'True Alpha', a beta that had the ability to become an Alpha solely on their own merit and Y/N felt that she was always learning something new with Scott around.

Prodigy teen wolf, Y/N had thought.

But the more pressing question was where had Derek disappeared to again? When they had arrived at the apartment, it was empty with only water covering the floor but no Derek and a deceased Boyd.

It had been days now since any of them had appeared and with everything going on, it would be dangerous for Derek to just leave.

Which might be why Cora was telling them about the Argent Hunting trip that Derek and another wolf had been apart of years ago.

"They were there for two days", Cora spoke, breaking Y/N's train of thought. "Waiting, hiding. That's what we're taught to do when Hunters find us-- hide and heal."

"But not a Slayer?" Stiles asked, Cora shook her head.

The Hale girl looked out the window, which had been painted on with the Alpha pack insignia as rain pelted down outside.

"Slayers are reasonable", Cora answered. "They have a tendency to ask questions first."

"Okay, so is two days standard, then", Y/N asked, "or what else could Derek be?"

"Why do either of you care?" Cora asked, facing them.

"Why? Let's see", Stiles said, "because over the last few weeks, my best friend's tried to kill himself, his boss nearly got ritually sacrificed, my girlfriend was hypnotized by a magical crystal and attacked by birds, a girl that I've known since I was 3 was ritually sacrificed and Boyd dead by the Alpha pack. Do you want me to keep going? Because I can for like an hour."

"You think Derek can do anything about that?"

"Derek's been at the center of all of this", Y/N answered, "he has got to be the clue to something."

"More like he should do something about it", Stiles interjected.

"I don't know", Cora shrugged, walking towards them. "There's something different about him now."

Cora leaned her hands onto the old metal desk in the loft, "he wasn't like this when we knew him."

"Maybe because he ripped out Peter's throat and became an Alpha", Y/N suggested when she heard the sound of footsteps descending down the spiral staircase.

"What was he like then?" Stiles asked.

"A lot like Scott, actually", Peter spoke as he came into frame. "A lot like most teenagers: unbearably romantic, profoundly narcissistic, tolerable really to other teenagers."

Peter walked towards them as she raised a brow, "and there's my former pack member."

Y/N rolled her eyes.

"So what changed then?"

"Well, the same thing that changes a lot of young men", Peter said with a smirk. "A girl."

Y/N and Stiles deadpanned as they looked at one another.

"A girl? A girl broke his heart and that's why he is the way he is?" she asked.
