Guardian (Teen Wolf Fanfic)

Chapter Four

It turned out my 'attacker' was Derek Hale. He was coming back after leaving for a period of time. We were walking back to his apartment complex when we felt the ground thump rhythmically. Looking at each other we ran forward, faster to his loft. Coming up we saw glowing lights shining throughout the windows. I faintly heard the song Illuminated stream from his apartment. Looking back at Derek I saw his jaw clenching, and his muscles tensing. Oh no, I thought.

Opening the sliding door I trailed behind Derek pushing against the throng of kids mingling in sweat, glow paint, and alcohol. Looking around I saw unfamiliar faces with the exception of Scott and Allison.

Suddenly, my vision got heavier, everything slowed to a stop. I saw white strings glowing, almost pulsing, connecting one teen to another. Some lights where brighter then others, some varied from different colors, but only a few where a shadowy black color hooking themselves on to Allison, Scott, The twins, Derek, a Japanese girl and one more trailing to the loft's balcony. These strings led themselves to figures peeping out from the shadows, maliciously glaring at their prey.

An ache started to form behind my eyes, and not to long I closed my eyes to relieve the throb. Opening them everything came back to normal. No strings, no lights pulsing, like nothing ever happened. The only thing that stayed where the shadowed figures. They where made of compete darkness with gleaming swords accompanied at their sides, ready to set off destruction.

I heard Derek yell something setting off a frightening silence, a few seconds went by then student ran to the nearest exits blocking off my view from the shadows.

Searching, the shadows weren't where I saw them at first, turning towards Derek to warn him I saw everyone (excluding the people at the party) surrounded by the shadows. One looking at Derek, another looking at Scott, one other looking at a twin, and one more looking at me. They advanced towards us in a threatening manner. Looking in every direction I found no exits I knew could help me escape, so I got in a fighting stance and waited. A silence was cast around for a second before hell broke lose.

Time slowed indefinitely in my eyes making defensive moves easier to deflect. My vision shook and then I saw the strings again connecting everyone to each other, even the shadows. A red light caught my attention and flashed in the middle of the string connecting me to the animalistic shadow in front of me. Turning around him I quickly brushed my hands on the red glow making the shadow blow in black ashes. Showering in my success, the ashes slowly formed together, taunting me. Running away from the grotesque sight I saw more red dots around me.

With no attention immediately on me I quickly went around and slapped the red lights creating a cloud of smoke over everyone.

I felt the tingle of everyone's sight set on me, diverting their attention from me, the freak I shouted, "Run!" And ran with no intent to see if anyone was following.

What the hell is going on with Beacon Hills?
