Voices bounced around and I heard someone repeating my name. Someone shook me shoulder. I peeled back my eyelids, feeling like I've been fried alive; sore and painful. Sitting up slowly, I looked around. Light shone from the afternoon sky and filtered through the leaves of the trees. I was in the forest from before.
"Patty?" Scott's voice broke me out of my daze and I realised he was holding and supporting me in his arms.
"Scott? What happened?" I asked, confused.
"We were taken by the Ghost Riders. And you were there...you saved us," Scott looked at you with wide eyes.
"Patty," Lydia sat next to me and put a hand on my shoulder and smiled, "We want to thank you for helping us."
"No problem. Anyway, are we back at the forest-" I started but was cut off by voices shouting my name and Scott's and Lydia's.
All of yall took one look at each other and quickly got to yalls feet, and running towards the voices calling yalls names. I could make out Stiles's and Malia's voice which were overlapped by Kira's and Liam's. The three of yall reached a small area surrounded by trees. I took off, running towards the others when I felt a jolt run through me.
My skin prickled as another electrifying jolt passed through me. Everyone paused as if time had been stopped. Anticipating eyes looked at me as I turned to the right. Sprouting out of the ground, was a tree trunk. Roots slithered away into the ground and lines ringed the wood. I could almost feel the power emitted from it. I felt drawn to it. I felt as if I wanted it, I absolutely needed it.
I walked towards slowly and ran my fingers around it's trunk. Power hummed under my fingertips. The rest joined me, but they did not seem to have the same effect as it did on me. They seemed more distant and away from its power, as if it had not leeched and dragged them as it did to me. Why? Was I different? I still had no answer to why I was this way; why was I picked?
Claws grew out of Scott, Liam, and Malia's fingers and their eyes turned different colors of red and yellow. Lydia sucked in a deep breath and Kira's palms lit up. I did all of that together besides what kira did. The waves of power ran through me and I fought my way out of it. It should not be here. Scott nodded once.
High-pitched screams erupted and nails clawed and dug their way into the wood, tearing it to shreds. Bright light electrified and bursted through the wood. The ground shook and roots recoiled and retracted back to the trunk. More clawing, light, and shrieks.
The trunk started to grow smaller, and smaller. Shrivelling up as the ground shook even more. Suddenly, there was nothing left. No trace of the Nemeton ever being there. There was no tree trunk and no more power. An eerie silence filled the place as everyone tensed, as if waiting for the trunk to sprout back up like an irritating weed, but nothing changed.
Stiles whooped, "Hell yeah, we saved the day."
He grinned and Lydia hugged him. Sound broke the silence as everyone took turns hugging each other and smiling. Lydia then came to squeeze me in for a tight hug.
"Thank you for saving us. We wouldn't be here without you. I think that we'll be great friends," she whispered then laughed.
The sound of my laughter startled me. It had been a while since I last laughed, and it felt good. Scott turned to everyone and a relaxed smile broke out on his face.
"Let's go home."
