Lydia's Cousin -1-

Abomination

Laney's Pov.

At the mechanic garage, Amor Tire with Stiles so his jeep could get fixed when Stiles and I notice what the man is doing to the jeep when it really just needs a starter.

Stiles walks over to the older guy, who looks to be 24 "Hey! Hey!" Stiles says, trying to get the guy's attention "What do you think you're doing? All I needed was a starter"

"Yeah, but it looks like your whole exhaust system has gotta be replaced, too" The mechanic says, keeping his eyes on what he's doing.

"Why do I get the feeling you're slightly overestimating the damge?" Stiles questions, looking up at the guy, slightly annoyed.

"It's probably gonna run you around, like, 1,200, parts and labor" The mechanic says.

"Are you kidding?" Stiles says, looking at him in disbelief "This thing doesn't even have a catalytic converter. And, yes, I know what a cataytic converter is"

"Do you know what a limited slip differential is?" The mechanic asks, looking at Stiles.

"Uh... No" Stiles says, not knowing what that is.

I step in and looks up at the mechanic "A limited slip differential prevents excessive power from being allocated to one wheel, and so keeps both wheels in powered rotation, ensuring that the traction will not be limited to the wheel which can handle the minimum amount of the power" I say, grinning at the guy before looking back at Stiles.

The mechanic looks at me shocked for a minute before turning back to his work "Yeah, could run you more, like, 1,500"

Stiles sighs "Okay, just finish" He says looking up at him, before we move out from under the lift with the jeep on top "I'll be back here" Stiles says as we walk together to the waiting room "Seething with impotent rage" He says, quietly so the mechanic doesn't hear.

Stiles grabs the door handle to the waiting room, finding that it's slimy "Ohh.. Nice. Real sanitary. Quality establishment you're running here"

Looks at the door handle, grabs a jar from my bag and a tooth pick starts scraping the slime in, as I giggle opens the door with my sleeve "I'll be right back, Stiles" I say, before I walk into the bathroom, putting my earphones in my ears listening to music.

Stiles Pov.

Once Laney goes into the bathroom, I start looking around the waiting room area and sees a picture of him on the Beacon Hills lacrosse team "Figures" I mutter, takes my phone out of my pocket and starts trying to text when my hands don't work with me.

Drops my phone onto the floor and looks at my hands in confusion as they grow numb and I see them shaking, looks up out of the waiting room window, seeing a scaly figure on the top of my jeep "Oh" Notices it is after the mechanic "Hey" I say.

The Mechanic comes out from under the jeep "Hey!" I say, just before the creature scratches the back of the guys neck and he falls down onto the ground.

Looks at my hands "Hey!" I say again before I fall onto the ground, slowly tries to crawl over to my phone , watches with blurry eyes as the mechanic lays under the jeep which is slowly lowering down, struggles to press 911.

"Help!" The mechanic calls, looking up at the lift in fear, knowing he's going to die "Help me. Please help me"

Squeezes my eyes shut before the lift lands on the mechanic not wanting to watch him die, slowly opens my eyes after I hear a thud and looks around panting heavily, gasps when a figure with scales appears in front of me.
