When We Were Young : Part 3

Chapter 11

"I know you don't want to leave Cora right now, but I need you to meet me at the loft" I told Derek over the phone. I was currently speeding over there. I don't know what it was but I feel like Jennifer is going to go after Derek. "We were right Derek, it was Jennifer, she took the sheriff. I think she is going to go after you next" 

"I'm almost to the loft, why do you think she is going to come after me?" Derek asked. 

"She said something when we were fighting. Something like 'Once you're dead I can have Derek all to my self', I think she's obsessed with you" I said through the phone.

"Alright I'm here" Derek said. 

"Almost there" I said and hung up the phone. I looked over in the passenger seat and glanced at Stiles. He was worried about his father, hell so was I. I hope he's going to be okay. Scott was sitting in the back guilt written over his face. 

"Stiles" I said "We will find him"

"You don't know that" Stiles said.

"Stiles I will save your father if it's the last thing I do, I promise you" I said

"Thank you" Stiles said his voice cracking a little. 

"It's my fault" Scott said from the back. 

"It's no one's fault, we underestimated her strength, I should have confronted her sooner" I said. 

"You knew it was her!" Stiles asked.

"I had a suspicion" I said, guilt was starting to consume me. 

"You realize you could have stopped all of this, if you would have just told one of us" Stiles shouted.

"What I had wasn't solid proof! It was based of a scent, and we all know I'm not the best werewolf out there okay! I'm sorry." I said. 

"Say that when we find my father" Stiles said tears threatening to spill over "Alive" He added. 

"We're here" I said and got out of the car. As soon as we all went up the the loft I opened the door quickly hoping that Jennifer didn't beat us here. 

"Derek! I yelled walking down the stairs. "Derek where are you!"

"I'm right here" He said walking in the room. I let out a breath of relief as I ran and gave him a hug. He was quick to return the embrace. 

"How's Cora?" I asked. 

"Worse" Derek said. My attention was turned towards the storm outside. This storm is probably one of the worse storms Beacon Hills has had in a while. 

"We need to figure out how to help her somehow" I said. 

"You can't" Said a voice that I wanted to shut up. Jennifer. She was standing in the doorway. "Only I can save her"

"What the hell are you talking about?" I asked her. 

"Using leverage, I couldn't get to you in time, so I got to her" Jennifer said. 

"What did you do to her" Derek asked angrily.

"Something that will kill her eventually, and I will help, but only if you help me, Derek" Jennifer said. "Only you"

"With what?" I asked her. 

"With taking down the alphas" She said. 

"That's what this is all about, you gaining power to go after them?"I asked

"That's right" Jennifer said. 

"Little extreme" I commented more to myself. 

"I'll help you" Derek said making me give him a look of shock. "But only after you help Cora"
