When We Were Young (Derek Hale)

Chapter 1

I dial the numbers into my phone again waiting for my best friend to answer. I've tried calling her 5 times already and she hasn't answered.

"Come on Laura, pick up the damn phone"

It isn't like her to not answer. I have this feeling in my gut that something bad has happened to her; its like my stomach has been tied up in knots. I start to panic; I'm breathing heavy, eyes are watering. Some may think I am overreacting but I know I'm not. It isn't rare for people I care about to get hurt. I've got no family and only a couple of friends.

Still with no answer I decide to drive to where she was staying, which is a motel downtown. Laura came to town on a mission. Someone lured her here, something about a deer with a spiral. That spiral meant vengeance. How do I know? Well my best friend's family were all werewolves and so was most of mine except for my mom and I...we were completely human. That's how Laura and I were so close, because our families were. Every family get together we were there. I always felt like an outcast with two older brothers being werewolves and then me being human. Laura and my brother were in love; so in love I wanted to gag sometimes. With them two being together we were close too.

I knocked on the door until my hand hurt...no answer. Dammit. My heart almost jumped out of my chest when my phone started ringing the sound of styx renegade. But then it just sank when it was work.

"Sparks" I answered

"Haley, I need you to meet me in the preserve, a couple joggers found half a body we are gonna search for the other half." the sheriff said.  I started to piece things together. The only way to kill a werewolf is to cut them in half; well it's the easiest way. Nothing. I felt nothing. Body cut in half. Missing friend. It had to be her. Tears in my eyes I told the sheriff I was on my way. I drove my police car to where I saw the red and blue lights.

"Hey Stillinski what do we got?" I asked

"Nothing new just what I told you on the phone" He answered

He showed me to where the bottom half of the body was. I stared at it and knew it was Laura. The same body shape. And that birthmark on her ankle gave it away. Dammit Laura what happened? My daze got cut short when dogs started to bark of in the distance. I ran to what they were barking at and there was a kid was screaming like an idiot.

"Hold it right there" I yelled

"Hold up, this little delinquent belongs to me" Sheriff said walking to where I was. 

"Haley nice to see you, you're looking good as always. Dad how are ya doin?" Stiles asks

"So do you listen in to all my phone calls?" Sheriff asks

"No! not the boring ones"

"Where's your usual partner in crime" I asked references little brown eyed puppy, Scott. I used to  babysit those two horrible kids a lot. I wanted to kill myself most of the time. Especially when they were together.

"Who Scott? Scott is at home, he wanted to get a good nights sleep for first day back at school tomorrow" He replied, not believing him I decided to ask myself.

"Scott! You out there?" No answer "Scott if you are out there and you aren't saying anything I will personally kick your ass when I find out and trust me I will find out." Still no answer.

The sheriff decided to walk his son back to his car talking about personal space. While I went back to searching for Laura. I looked for about an hour and still couldn't find anything. Suddenly I froze and heard a sound I will never forget in my life. A howl. And In the distance I seen two glowing red eyes. Everything started to make sense. Laura coming to town out of no where. Her death. And now those eyes. Someone lured her to town to kill her to become the alpha. Shit is about to go down in beacon hills. In my town. Not on my watch.

Derek needs to know. About his sister. About everything. I just couldn't find myself to tell him. It would be better if he came here. I can't find a alpha on my own let alone kill him. I got my phone out and dialed his number. Which by the way Laura had to give to me when she arrived because he changed it. Without my knowledge....me and him....long story. Ill talk about it later.

It just rang to voice mail.

"Derek it's Haley, look I don't want to talk to you as much as you don't wanna talk to me but you need to get to beacon hills. Something happened to Laura and she's... Derek I'm sorry. There's another alpha in Beacon Hills and I I think it killed her. I need your help. Please Derek."

Tears in my eyes I hung up the phone. I didn't want to be the one to tell him let alone over a voice mail but it had to be done. He is gonna come back. And he is gonna wanna kill who ever killed Laura, and I am going to help him.
