The Secret Hale| Derek Hales sister

Brooke's POV

I open my eyes to find myself in a dark, black room. I try to move my arms, but I am chained up against a wall. I begin to panic until I hear a quiet voice from beside me

"Brooke, calm down" Derek's low voice sounds out from beside me. He sounds tired and beaten up.

"Where are we?" I whimper

"I don't know" Derek whispers again.

I try to look around, but it's too dark to see anything.

I hear a door open, and there is now a little bit of light shining in. Footsteps approach us and I hold my breath.

"Turn wolf" Derek mumbles to me.

I do as told, trying to keep my identity hidden as best I can.

A bright light shines on Derek and I, making him growl loudly. I just keep my gaze on the women behind the light, Kate Argent.

"Aren't they beautiful?" Kate turns her head to the doorway.

I follow her gaze, seeing Allison standing with her arms crossed. I let out the breath I've been holding in as Allison stares at me in shock. I can't tell if she recognizes me, but I pray she doesn't.

Kate smirks, walking over to a table that sits directly in front of Derek and I. On the table is an electrical box. I follow the wires from the side of the box all the way up to my right side, where the wires have been stabbed into my body. I look to Derek, and his side looks the same as mine. I groan knowing they're going to torture us.

Kate flips the switch up, making both me and Derek scream. The pain of being electrocuted is so intense, and I try to keep my focus on not turning back human. At least not in front of Allison.

"What are you doing to them? Is it gonna kill them?" Allison asks worriedly.

Kate chuckles, "Come on, kiddo. Don't get all ethical on me now."

The electricity is still coursing through my body as I take a look over to Derek, who is switching back and forth between human and werewolf. I close my eyes tight, and focus on staying a werewolf.

"What are they?" Allison holds back tears as she stares at me.

"Shape shifters. Lycan. Werewolf," Kate laughs,"To me, they're just dumb animals"

The lever is pushed up higher, causing the electricity to magnify. I can't handle the pain much longer, and I can slowly feel my claws pulling back into my fingers.

The electricity is turned off completely, Derek and I both panting heavily. My whole body is weak as I hang from the wall, powerless and defeated. I let my head fall to where I'm looking at the ground, but my eyes are closed. My claws retract back out, and I try not to focus on the pain.

I hear Kate march over to Derek.

"See these right there?" Kate talks to Allison, who I assume is peering over her aunts shoulder.

"These are canines. Also known as fangs. Made for the tearing and ripping of flesh. Not something you find on those cute little leaf eating herbivores, is it?"

"Is this a joke to you?" Allison sounds shocked.

"Sweetheart, there are werewolves running around this world. Everything's a joke to me. How else do you think I stay sane?" Kate half chuckles.

"So, it was him at the high school, and all the other animal attacks?" Allison is crying now.

"There's actually four of them. Another younger one like him, a beta, and then there's the Alpha. Alphas the pack leader. Bigger, stronger, nastier. Those, are the real ugly mothers" Kate explains.
