|03| ~ a new threat

Talia Baker

After the events of what happened at the hospital the man that attacked me and Scott ran away and the other guy that saved us, Derek Hale told us to meet him at his house.  As me and Scott were walking out of the hospital heading towards his dirt bike I noticed in the corner of my eye him sneaking quick glances at me. 

As we approached his bike I decided to break the silence. "Okay..." He turned to face me, "I know you have questions on what happened back there and I promise to explain everything but not right now."

He nodded at me then hopped on his bike, "I understand." He said, then turned on the engine.  I put on the helmet then got on the bike, my arms wrapping around Scott and we took off, heading towards Derek's house.

When we got there we walked in to see Derek digging something from the ground and Scott's friend Isaac lying down on a table, unconscious.

When me and Talia walked inside Derek's house my phone started ringing and the Caller I.D. read that Stiles was calling me. I walked out of the living room where they were and picked up the phone, placing it against my ear. "Hey Stiles-"

"We got a serious problem at school. Miss Blake's class was hit-" Stiles tried to say but I cut him off. "Well can you tell me about it later?

I heard Stiles groan through the phone, "Uh, nope, pretty sure this qualifies for immediate discussion." I let out a breath of frustration, "Alright then meet me at Derek's."

"Derek's house? What - what the hell you doin' at Derek's house?" Stiles asked. I started to get annoyed with him. "Just meet me here, okay?" And then I hung up.

When I walked back into the living I saw Derek and Talia sending glares towards each other. "What's going on here?"

"I was asking your friend here." He said pointing at Talia, "What she is because that power I saw her use at the hospital I've never seen before."

"I don't have to explain anything, I saved Scott thats that." She snapped at him. "Yeah and I saved you! So you owe me an explanation about yourself."

I could hear Talia's heartbeat rising and not because of fear or lying but of anger. I grabbed her hand and immediately felt her heartbeat lower. "Derek she doesn't have to explain anything."

He rolled his eyes, "Fine..."

I looked around the burnt and rundown house, "You don't still live here do you?" I looked to see Derek digging for something in the ground. "No. The county took it over. But there's something here that I need. It'll help heal a wound from an alpha."

"But it did heal." I said but he just shook his head. "Not on the inside." Suddenly he pulls out a couple wolfsbane plants and crushes them into powder then pours it over where Isaac's wound is supposed to be.

"Hey. Are you gonna tell me who that was back there? That alpha?" I mentioned, "A rival pack. It's my problem. I know you wanna help and ya did, I owe ya one. Now go home, both of you. Go back to being teenagers."

I feel Talia place her hand on my shoulder. I faced her as she had a smile on her face. "Come on, lets go."

As we were about to leave I started to think about my tattoo that got healed. I placed my arm over my bicep and turned to Derek. "Uh. Hey Derek. If you wanna repay back that favor now... there is something you can do for me."
