Wicked Witchcraft (Stiles Stilinski)

Empty Hospitals

"You're sure? Okay, okay, look: Scott, Stiles and I are headed to Derek's right now to warn him about Jennifer being the darach. Stay at the school, make sure that everything's been taken care of. I'll call you when we figure some things out." My voice being as hoarse as it was, I wasn't sure if Allison could understand me that well over the phone. I was currently sitting in Stiles' backseat, and the guy in question was moving heaven and earth to get to Derek's loft.

"Okay. Be careful, June."

I hung up the phone. "That was Allison, she said that while we were fighting Jennifer off, the pianist at the concert got her throat cut. There was mistletoe in the blood," I explained.

Stiles looked at me through the rearview mirror, "She must have been a backup sacrifice, so now it's just guardians," I looked down when he said sacrifice. I was still slightly trembling from the whole ordeal. I made sure that Scott and Lydia both downed to healing potions, and then we made our way out of the school. Lydia went to go find Aiden in the huge mess that was the auditorium, and Scott, Stiles, and I slipped out unnoticed.

"I texted Ginny, she told me she was fine. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary," I said.

"How are we going to do this, guys?" Scott asked from the passenger's seat.

"I vote we tell him bluntly and that his taste in women is lacking severely," Stiles volunteered, "I mean this is the second mass murderer that Derek has dated."

"The odds of that are pretty high," I agreed.

"I don't know that we should tell him like that," Scott said, a little uneasy about the whole thing.

"How should we tell him then?" I croaked, "Tell me, how does one ease into the topic of their friend dating a dark druid that has sacrificed twelve innocent people, huh? Did we need to stop at the convenience store for some ice cream and shitty romance movies? Scott, this isn't telling someone that their significant other is cheating on them, okay? This is us telling a werewolf that his girlfriend is an evil being who is killing people, and may have poisoned his sister!"

Scott sighed, knowing I was right. "But how do we prove it to him? We're not necessarily buddy-buddy with each other."

I looked to Stiles, "Am I not proof enough?" I gestured to my bruised neck.

"You might be proof enough for us," He assured me, "But people who're like Derek, they have to see to believe."

I thought about it for a minute, "I think I might know how to help with that."

Ginny was beside herself when she saw my state. She rounded on Scott and Stiles, yelling at them for letting this happen to me. Honestly I had never in my life seen that woman so angry. I completely sympathized with the way the dynamic duo tried to melt into the wall behind them when she stared at them with wild eyes. After a brief explanation, I told them that it wasn't their fault, that they actually saved me, and we had to go.

"Like hell you are going anywhere else, June! After everything that has happened-"

"After everything that's happened, Ginny how could I not help?" I tried to yell over her. "I almost died tonight, Gin. I have to make sure no one else dies now, not if I can help them."

"You can't help, June! You have mistletoe in your system, you're about as useful as-"

"The 'g' in lasagna, I know." I looked her straight in the eye, "But I cannot, and I will not sit around and do nothing. If my friends go into danger then so do I."
