Nine † Video Store

Henley didn't know how in the hell she had managed to get herself involved in this, she should have been helping Derek train Scott not be in the back of a Porsche with Lydia Martin and Jackson Whittmore sitting in front arguing over what movie to rent.

"Can I fucking go?" Henley growled out, annoyed at the two's constant bickering

"No" Lydia responded and went back to argue with Jackson about getting the note book. If Henley was being honest here, she hated either one of the movies. And it also wasn't like she was going to stay to watch it, she was thinking about sneaking awat before the couple began to make out when they began to watch the movie.

Frustrated Jackson sighed and got out of the car, motioning to Henley to come with him. Henley didn't need to think twice before hopping out of the car, she was not going to sit there for god knows how long with Lydia.

Walking in to the video store, Jackson and Henley went and separated. Jackson went looking for the notebook whilst Henley went to the candy that was by the cash register.

Henley had noticed after a mere 2 minutes of looking at the candy that the store clerk was no where to be found. Although she knew he or she wouldn't be hidden behind the counter she still peered over fundung nothing she went to look for jackson but instead she found somethibg else and what she saw angered her but frightened her all at the same time. On the other side of an isle was the clerk all bloody and maimed. Henley knew the alpha had done this.

Remembering that she came to look for Jackson, Henley turned around and frantically tried to spot Jackson

"Jackson? Dude we need to get out of here" Henley spoke warily, she wasn't sure if the alpha was still here. Walking down the isles of the video store she spotted jackson, his back facing her

"Jackson!" Henley spoke a bit to loudly, which startled jackson and causing him to bump a ladder into the lights and now both were in the video store, darkness around them.

"Jackson?" Henley spoke aloud, a body bumped into her

"Henley? Are you okay?" Jackson asked, which Henley found weird seeing as they both never got along so him worried about her well being is a bit off putting.

"I'm fine let's g-" Henley got cut off as she heard what sounded like the shelf's falling, quickly realizing that they were indeed falling she pushed jackson out of the way, Henley now in his spot and the shelf falling on her now

"Henley!" Jackson shouted

"In fine" Henley grunted out "get out of here, now" she growled out the last bit

Jackson seemed to have been getting up to leave when Henley heard him yelp and saw a big figure on top of him, its claws digging in the back of his neck

Henley mustered up every ounce of strength she had and pushed off the shelf from her, sliding out of it she went over to where the alpha was on Jackson and she let out a loud growl, which only resulted in the alpha staring back at her and then leaving, it had stared at her as if they've known each other. Which creeped Henley out.

Hearing glass shattering and Lydia's scream, she quickly helped jackson up and went out side to see if Lydia was okay.

Henley was annoyed, she kept telling the paramedics she was fine. She wasn't severly hurt and if she was it was already healed.

Jackson was over arguing with sheriff stilinski, and Lydia was sitting down shaking. It was a mess in other words.

Getting tired of jackson aruguing with the sheriff- who she kind of saw as a father- she yelled over at him

"Jackson, if you dont leave sheriff stilinski alone I will rip your throat out" she paused to make sure he was looking at her "with my teeth" she snapped

"Woah is that a dead body?" Of course stiles would be here, Henley thought

Catching sight of Henley, Stiles quickly rushed over to her side

"Are you okay? He asked his friend

"I'm fine, pissed off but fine" she nodded her head earning a confused look from Stiles

"Why are you pissed off?" Stiles asked

"Because it was the alpha" Henley felt her eyes change into there vibrant red color that and the look of panic on stiles face told so as well "I could've beat his ass there but jackson was there" she growled, her eyes going back to normal

"You can't fight him by yourself, Henley" stiles sighed

"Yeah well I sure as hell can I try" she snapped

"No" stiles shook his head "you can die, and I won't have that"

"I- well um" Henley stopped and looked over at Lydia still shaking, she then decided to use her as a scapegoat "go and check if Martin is alright" she grumbled and brushed past stiles to where his dad was

"Sheriff, may I please go home?" She asked as sweetly as she can, although the sheriff knew she was everything but sweet, he had met her countless of times since she seemed to spend a lot of time over at the stilinski household, sometimes even staying for dinner.

"Yes you can, but you need someone to take you" he sighed

"I can manage walking, I'll be fine" she assured him, not really wanting to deal with people

"I'm sorry Henley but I can't let you go walking" Sheriff stilinski shook his head at the young hale "whatever did that to you guys can still be out there and I dont want you getting hurt"

Alright, Henley appreciated that they cared about her being safe, but she was not made out of glass.

"I'll call you or stiles if I run into trouble" she glared and stormed off, she just wanted to go home now, and possibly yell at Derek for not stopping her from going to the video store with Jackson and Lydia
