never be hard to find

amber p.o.v

derek came into view when we walked out the building, relief ran through my body. i had met him with scott one time and he was a pretty great person, his life was marked by tragedy but he still managed to protect others, yet the nature of his and scott's relationship was still a mystery to me.

"amber, i need you to tell me if you feel any pain?" i gave him a concerned glance, maybe he thought i got hurt when i fell on the ground. i felt around making sure i wasnt bruised or bleeding "yeah, im fine, we need to help that girl" i said out of breath.

"no" he paused "not because of the fall" i felt embarrased and confused, what other pain was he asking about. "do you feel anxious? a sharp pain or something that cant be refered to your fall. i shook my head no "i sent erica and isaac after the kanima, i want to know if hes hurt" he explained, leaving me more confused then before "whats a kanima? and why am i supposed to know what isaac is feeling at the moment?" i was worried, if isaac had to be anywhere he could get hurt, it ate me up from inside. 

he ignored my questions and looked around concerned, i sigh loudly "look i have to find my friends, theyre probably looking for me" i looked around the parking lot looking for jacksons car, i spotted it where he had parked, meaning he was still here, another wave of relief coming to my body. "lydia got into a car and jackson....well jackson IS the kanima" he explained quickly. i furrowed my eyebows, what the hell was he talking about "what the fuck is a kanima?" my eyes wide and set on him.

i heard a loud screech and pain shooted up to my hand, i screamed and derek quickly pulled me behind a car. "that is a kanima" he looked around the corner of the car, it sounded like an animal, maybe it was a wild animal from the woods, i peaked from under the car. it was grey and scaly, nothing i had ever seen before. fear began in my gut, if this is what isaac had to face, all i wnated to do was run and protect him. 

"ill go distract him, you stay here" he demanded, i nodded quickly, i knew if i even tried to step up to that creature it would rip me apart " derek, you asked me if i felt any pain" he reached out my arm "it hurts, like its broken" i explained.  he looked down at me holding my hand "he will heal, hes going to be okay" with that he ran, a wolf growl could be heard in a distance making me shiver, was derek a werewold too? was scott? so many questions running through my mind. i looked around at the other cars, no one was left in the parking lot just me. 

i could no longer hear growl or hisses, i peaked from under the car once more seeing that derek and that creature had disappeared, he told me that was jackson but theres no way in hell, a human couldve turned into something like that, yet again my ex boyfriend did happen to be a werewolf.

i quickly got up from the ground and ran as fast as i could in the opposite direction. i was looking back, just in case jackson or the kanima decided to come back. my body slammed into someone and i quickly fell to the ground. "shit, amber? amber! are you okay" stiles quickly helped me off the floor, dusting me off "are you okay?"

before i could reply he cut me off  "have you seen scott!" he spoke nervously, i finished dusting myself off, i swear ive been on the floor tonight then anybody else. 

" I didnt even know scott was here!"

I regained my balance while holding onto his arm "okay! maybe we should communicate more!" he said as we both looked at a vacant parking lot "a whole lot of communication" I responded, we heard police sirence in the distance, we both ran down the parking lot knowing how much trouble we would get ourselves into if the sheriff caught us.

"have you seen issac?"

I asked "yeah he was with me along with erica!" He responded quickly looking back every once in a while.

The responce was unsetteling, the scene of them dancing together replaying in my mind, i wanted to kill them, fury building up from inside me. 

"you know what, they can fend for themselves, theyre grown" he gave me a look "same " I giggled "she danced dirty with my ex" he smirked "uuuu!" I laughed "shut up!" I pushed him slightly "alright! lets do something for becan hills and find all of our werewolf and kanima friends" I nodded my head as we walked quietly and quickly into an open alley.
