Broken and Bruised

Chapter 8

  "Where are we?", I asked as we entered a cave in the desert to cover us from the heat.

  "Shiprock. Home of the Skin walkers", Kira said as she pulled her sword out of her sling where it had been kept. She stabbed the ground with it and said something along the lines of 'Damnatio Memoriae'.   I was confused, but didn't ask questions as 3 , what i assumed to be skin walkers, appeared. 

  "Kira. What do you need help with?", the one farthest on the left asked.

  "We need help. We need to find Scott McCall.", Kira spoke taking her sword out of the ground and kicking it over to her. "I'm prepared for anything".

  "Why are you doing this", the one in the middle asked.

  "Kaine. We just need your help to find him. I'm not leaving until you agree to help.

  "You will need your sword", Kaine spoke, "Why did you bring her?".

  "She is the Albas lupus est scriptor hybrid", Kira said.

  "She is the one. It's her? The key to everything in the supernatural world?", the end one asked.

  "Yes.", i answered.

  "We can help you.", Kaine said as  the three of them morphed into three wolves.

  "Shift.", Kira said as she herself changed into her red fox followed by me.

  I ran. Just ran, and let all of my brown and grey fur ruffle into the wind. I followed the three other dark black wolves and red fox. We ran until we reached a mountain. They all stopped, but i kept following the scent of Scott in danger, afraid of loosing it. I quickly realized i was half way up the mountain and Kira and the skin walkers still remained at the bottom. I climbed one last rock and was finally at the top. "Come on", i screamed out of breathe looking down at the four.

  "Cait, we can't. It's your job to find him now. It'll be okay.", Kira assured as i backed up from the ledge a little so i wouldn't fall.

  "I'll be back soon.", i told Kira and the skin walkers and sprinted in the opposite direction of them.

I heard a male scream.I could only imagine what had just happened. I thought if Scott and followed the scent. It has been six long days of hunting down the scent of the wolf and still no Scott. I followed the scent of him still determined to find him. When i stopped running, what appeared me was horrifying yet made me so happy. It was Scott. Scott McCall the one and only Alpha."Scott.", i said as i slowly approached him.

  "You. You are the white wolf's daughter?", Scott asked seeming a tad less scared.

  "Yes. And you are the one and only alpha?", I asked stepping a couple feet closer to him.

   "We need to get out of here and fast", Scott told me.

  "Okay. Come on.", I said as he shifted into his massive wolf and we began our journey off of the mountain.

  We reached the clif where i had jumped up on and we both looked down to make sure that Kira and the skin walkers were still there. They were. After six long days of them waiting on me, the still were. "Let's go", i told Scott as I climbed down the steep mountain to soon reach KIra and the skin walkers. They had shifted back into their human forms.

  "Your back.", Kaine said.

  "Kira. Wake up they are back. Scott's back", one of the other skin walkers said to her and shebegan to wake up.

  "Scott", KIra cried as she jumped up to hug him.

  "KIra.", Scott said as he looked confused at first but gladly hugged back.

  "Well I think we have helped you enough. Cait, good luck. Kira you know what to do.", Kaine said as Kira pulled her sword out of her pouch and stabbed the ground once again. The ground shook and suddenly we were back at the door of the summer pack house.

  I heard a scuffle from inside the door and a couple mutters before the door busted open with a questioning and worried looking Alpha and Luna. "Scott McCall. You're home, where have you been my boy?", Alpha questioned him.

  "Finding myself sir.", Scott answered him and walked into the house to be greeted by Malia, Harley, but no Stiles.

  "We missed you. Stiles did too. He is upstairs.", Malia said pointing to the stairs.

  Harley grabbed my hand and led me to the back porch. "I missed you so fucking much", he said as he pulled me into a hug.

  "I missed you too.", I said as i kissed him, "But that's not why you took me out here is it?".

  "No. It's Stiles. Ever since he had that anxiety attack he has been staying in his room. Malia has been keeping a good eye on him. Making sure he is still okay and all, but Cait, i'm going to tell you this for a reason. You have to stay out of his way if he goes to talk to Scott. They had a falling out before he went away. Now that he is back we hope that they repair the damage.", Harley informed me and we got up to walk inside.

  "Stiles.", i said as i saw the awful looking teenager moping around like a lost puppy that hadn't slept in weeks.

"You're back?", he asked and gave me a hug. Why was he acting like he hadn't seen me in ten years. i was gone only a week.

  "Scott's back too.", i said.

  "I know. Where is he?", Stiles asked with a pleading look on his face.

  "Talking with Kira. Come on.", I said as he followed me up the stairs to Kira's room.

  "Scott.",  Stiles started, "Can we talk, in private?".

  "Yeah, sure.", Scott answered a long face.

  As they left into another room, i walked down the creaky steps into the kitchen. "Alpha, what's wrong?", I asked looking at him.

  "Oh nothing, don't worry about me.", he said turning around to grab an apple and throw it up in the air multiple times.

  "Are you sure?", i questioned him soon regretting it.

  "Didn't you learn not to question your Alpha?", he boomed turning his eyes a deep red and his ears steaming.

  I stumbled backwards to the staircase and started to shake. I quickly muttered a sorry and started to shake, feeling my anxiety set in.

  "Cait?", i heard someone mutter and i sunk into the darkness.
