NEW ENEMIES
(PLEASE READ MY NOTE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CHAPTER PLEASE!!)

A WEEK HAS PASSED SINCE Derek returned to his adult form. The McCall Pack and the Witch Pack hasn't spoken to each other since that night, mostly because Talia and Scott don't really talk anymore. Stiles tried to be there for his friend but Scott would always say that he was fine but Stiles knew he wasn't. Being the total opposite, Talia has grew close to Ashton, the two slowly starting to develop feelings for each other.

They entered the school, smiles on their faces. In the corner of Talia's eyes she noticed Scott staring at them and she started to feel guilty. She felt bad for what she was doing to him but she couldn't help it, she couldn't remember and she would feel terrible if she was with him with fake feelings.  Throughout the school day, she noticed the consist stares from Scott and she slowly started to feel uncomfortable.

The school day went by quick with no unusual events and now after school, Talia, Kira, and Malia were watching Scott and Stiles try out for lacrosse.  Ashton went home after school and took care of Nora, who was still in shock of what happened last week. 

Talia winced as she watched that new kid, Liam Dunbar passing Scott and Stiles and made another goal.  "Awe come on, that was luck!" Malia shouted, standing up from the bleachers.  "Do-over!"

Coach Finstock chuckled, "This is practice sweetheart, there is no do overs."  Talia stood up also, joining Malia.  "Ten bucks on Scott and Stiles."  Coach pointed at Talia, "I'll take that action."

The coach called Liam back to the field.  The three girls watched as their two friends managed to succeed but then winced when they heard the freshmen release a cry of pain.  The two juniors decide to take him to the nurse, Talia following right behind them while Malia and Kira stayed at the bleachers. 

"Why are you coming with us?" Scott asked politely as he and Stiles helped Liam walk.  "Because I want to....plus I'm bored."  She told them, a small smile creeping onto Scott's lips.  After checking with the nurse, they decided to take him to the hospital and Scott encouraged Talia stay here and finish school, the young witch agreeing.

Before she could walk away, her phone rang, seeing that it was from Nora.  Talia picked it up and placed it against her ears.  Scott noticed Talia's body began to tremble.  "What's wrong?"

She turned to face him, her eyes becoming watery.  "Ashton is at the hospital...he's been shot."

The teens arrived at the hospital.  "What is the room number for Ashton Carter?" Talia asked the front desk lady.  "That information is only for family members, who are you to him?"

Talia tapped her fingers against the counter, impatiently.  "I'm his—uhhh—girlfriend!" She nearly shouted, a crushed look on Scott's face but he easily hid it.  The lady told the frantic teen the room number and she took off while Scott and Stiles got Liam help.

Talia found Ashton's room and a sigh of relief escaped her lips as she saw him okay.  "Oh thank god.  What happened?" She asked Nora who sat next to his bed.  "The witch hunters attacked us again, Ashton got shot trying to protect me."

Talia's eyes shifted to the bandage that was wrapped around his stomach.  "We have to do something to stop them."  Nora stood up from her chair and stood next to Talia.  "I don't know...after the attack last week, you, me, Ashton, Julia, and Fiona are the only ones from our world left."
