{ 4 } Second chance at first line.

Back at Beacon Hills High School, the following Monday, Delainey was at her locker when Scott approached her frantically. "Allison's dad is that hunter from the woods", he told her. "I know", she nodded calmly.

Scott have her a questioning look so she elaborated, "They're Argents, very well known hunters in the supernatural world", she spoke quietly so no-one would over hear.

"Oh God", Scott muttered and started to panic. "Look calm down, they have a code or whatever and as far as I know Chris Argent is one of the few that actually follow it", Delainey told him. "He shot me with an arrow and tried to shoot you too, just the other night", Scott retorted. Delainey winced slightly but then smiled widely flashing him her teeth, "He probably just wanted to talk", she shrugged and patted him on the shoulder before walking away.

Scott was frozen, he had no idea how she could be so nonchalant about almost getting shot with an arrow by a man who actively tries to hunt down her kind.

It was time for lacrosse practice and once again Delainey was stuck babysitting Scott. As she did so she noticed how Stiles kept looking back at her which made her assume Scott had filled him in on what happened.

Eventually Scott and Jackson were set to go up against each other, they collided and Scott was sent flying by Jackson. "Hey, McCall", coach approached him, "My grandmother can move faster than that, and she's dead! You think you can move faster than the lifeless corpse of my dead grandmother?", Coach was riling Scott up. "Yes coach", "I can't hear you", "Yes coach", "Then do it again. McCall's gonna do it again".

This is not good Delainey thought as she sat up straighter. Scott faced Jackson again and this time when the two collided it was Jackson who was sent to the ground clutching his shoulder. Scoot also fell to his knees clutching his head and the girl watched as Stiles helped him off the field. Delainey sighed when she saw Derek was also watching, what was the point in her being there if he was just going to stalk Scott anyway. She got to her feet and followed after Scott and Stiles, she came to the boys locker room, where she heard grunting and heavy breathing.

She opened the door and saw that Scott had jumped onto the top of a row of lockers, "Hey come get me", she shouted up to him, his head snapped in her direction and he jumped down. Now right in front of her, he growled and showed of his pointed canines. Delainey grabbed the boy by his lacrosse jersey and slammed him into the lockers, creating and dint. She flashed her own amber eyes at him and growled back, by then the pain in his back from hitting the lockers had brought him back and he was no longer trying to kill her or Stiles.

Delainey continued to hold him to the lockers and got close to his face before telling him, in a tone unlike anything either boy had heard from her before, "You need to learn to control yourself before you end up killing someone", she pushed him further into the locker, "Today was your best friend, tomorrow it could be your mom, and if you hurt someone that you love you won't forgive yourself, trust me". Delainey let him go but he didn't move, she turned and headed for the door, Stiles was stood there holding a fire extinguisher, she looked at him and asked, "You good, Miles?", "Y-Yeah", Stiles told her, she could hear his heart rate starting to come down and so she left without another word.

Stiles may not have crushed on the girl like Scott had in the past but the young man thought that the way she threw Scott around as if it was nothing may have been the hottest things he had ever seen.

"What just happened?", Scott then asked Stiles, finally taking his helmet off, "You tried to kill me", Stiles told him bluntly.
