...

"She's dying, isn't she?" Isaac asked, trying to hide his shaking voice.

Derek kept his eyes on Rose and answered, "I don't know."

Isaac sighed, "So what are you gonna do?"

Again, Derek answered, "I don't know."

Isaac was growing impatient watching the girl he loved deeply, struggle to breathe, nonetheless live.

"Derek," Isaac sighed, "I can't lose her."

Derek's eyes stayed glued to Rose's dying figure, he then whispered, "I can't either. I lost her once, I won't let it happen again."

"Want to figure something out then? Because while Scott and Stiles were out there trying to help people from being killed, you were in here, rolling around the sheets with the actual killer." Isaac began shouting, "Do you get how many people she's killed? Erica and Boyd are dead, Rose is dying, and you are doing nothing! Why'd you do this to us, Derek?" Isaac asked slowly,
"Was it all about the power? Were you bored? Were you lonely?" Isaac was inching closer to Derek's face.

"Maybe." Derek looked up at him with teary eyes as well, "Look I told Rose I wouldn't leave. I'll help the others when I figure out how to help her."

"There's no time!" Isaac shouted and began storming out of the apartment.

Derek shot up from his seat and yelled back, "My first priority is Rose! I can't do anything else when my sister is dying."

Isaac shook his head, "The full moon's coming. The Sheriff and Melissa are gonna be dead, so I'm gonna try and help them. You can sit here and perfect the art of doing nothing."

Isaac took one last look at Rose's lifeless figure before slamming the door.

Peter, who had been listening on the staircase spoke up, "I wouldn't take it personally. Anger is just a tool. He's using it to excuse shifting allegiance from one Alpha to another. From you to Scott."

"Scott's not an Alpha yet." Derek corrected.

"But he's on his way, isn't he?" Peter raised his eyebrows knowing that he was right. Peter then looked down at his niece, "And what about Rose, hm? She needs a pack."
