"Oh my god, Scott-" I breathe out as Stiles and I race into the boys changing rooms, and I'm beyond glad to see he's still there, because we had a lot to tell him.

"Dude, we have a huge problem." Stiles pants behind me as we reach Scott's side and I notice he's sat on the bench in just a towel. Why hadn't he gotten changed yet? I mean the game had ended at least an hour ago.

Scott sighs, looking up at the two of us. "Trust me, I know."

I furrow my eyebrows. "You know about Peter?"

Scott nods, rising to his feet. "He came here, just now - him and Derek."

"Derek?" I repeat, my eyes widening in shock. I thought Derek was going to fight him, why the hell was he travelling to the school with him now. Unless maybe he tortured Derek infront of Scott to try get him to join the pack - that was the only logical explanation to me. "Why the hell was Derek with him?"

"Because he's joined him now!" Scott exclaims.

There was no way.

I shake my head in disbelief. "But the Alpha killed his sister - Peter killed his sister?!"

"I know. And so does he, but he said it was an accident, that those things happen. All I know is he was with him, he's a part of his pack now." Scott explains and I can't believe what I'm hearing. I'd been thinking about how great it was he ran in to risk his life to save Stiles, how we were so lucky to have his help against the Alpha, how he'd actually started to grow tolerable to me - and now he'd thrown all of that away. Turns out he is the dick we first assumed he was.

Scott pulls his hands to his head. "He showed me why he's doing all this - Peter. He's killing the ones responsible for the fire that killed their family, that's what he wants from me."

"He wants you to help him get revenge?" Stiles questions, earning a nod from Scott.

Now it made sense why Derek had joined him. Revenge. Peter had given him the perfect chance and way to get revenge on the family who had killed his. I knew there was no possible way we'd be able to pull him away from that.

"And that's not even everything." Scott sighs.

"Oh god, seriously? There's more?" Stiles asks in disbelief.

"The Argents think Jackson's me. They think he's the second beta." Scott tells us.

I furrow my eyebrows. "Why the hell would they think that?"
