Stiles The Teen Wolf

Episode Nine: Wolf's Bane

Stiles' ears were ringing with the sirens of the police cars he knew were chasing Derek. It had been such a stupid mistake! They had the Alpha in their sights, they were right on his tail and then came the Hunters. Shots were fired instantly and the police was called about the gun shots and when they spotted Derek, Stiles was pushed away.

"Get to the car!" Derek had shouted.

"It's at the hospital Derek!"

The older wolf's blue eyes glowed as he glared. Tossing the keys at Stiles who caught them easily. "Then run fast!"

When he did find Derek's Camaro, he had also found Scott, waiting outside the hospital for his mother's shift to end. One look at Stiles and Scott was in the passenger seat of the Camaro with his phone in his hand telling his mother that Stiles would drive him home. Stiles didn't argue, simple took off towards the sounds of the sirens. Along the way they picked up a Hunter tail. He even knew who the tail was. Kate Argent.

The police radio he snagged from his father months ago let him know exactly where Derek was and how to get to him, so that's where Stiles was headed, only sparing a second of thought when their pursuer didn't follow. Still, it didn't matter, Stiles needed to get to Derek before the Hunters or the cops did.

It was almost perfect timing when they caught up to Derek while he was being shot at by Chris Argent.

Scott pushed the door open and scrambled into the back seat while Stiles kept his eyes on the road, waiting for Derek to get in. When the older wolf was in the Camaro, Stiles took off like a rocket.

"What part of 'lay low' don't you understand?!" Scott yelled while Derek slammed an open hand on the dashboard.

"Damn it! I had him!"

"The Alpha?" Scott asked from the back seat, pushing himself between the front seats to look from Stiles to Derek.

"Yes! He was right in front of me and the freaking Hunters showed up! Then the freaking police!" Derek fumed in the passenger's seat, looking around like he couldn't settle on one thing to focus on.

"Derek, they were just doing their jobs." Stiles could feel the glare Derek sent him, but he kept his focus on the road.

"Yeah." Derek snorted. "Thanks to someone who decided to make me the most wanted fugitive in the state!" His glare went from Stiles to Scott, who sat back with a wince.

"Hey, I said I was sorry, can we seriously get passed that? I made a dumbass mistake, I get it." Scott muttered, but both the wolves in the car ignored it. Scott had made his apologizes days ago. Stiles had accepted, and their relationship even out, turning into an uneasy shadow of what it had been before. Even Derek had sat and listened as Scott apologized, though the bigger wolf had only nodded silently.

"Alright, alright. Can we focus here! Last time Derek spoke to Laura she was close to figuring something out. What was it Derek?" Stiles glanced at Derek for a moment, taking in his distress, his anxiety, and his frustration."

Derek's eyes went from Stiles to Scott and back again, but Stiles only snorted in annoyance while in the back seat, Scott groaned. "Derek, I know I haven't been the most trustworthy bastard in this situation, but can we please start trying to fix this thing? The Alpha is a threat to the whole town and Stiles, my mom, and yeah okay, Allison too are in danger. There would be no reason for me to betray you guys now."

Derek didn't really look impressed and Stiles wasn't going to chime in with anything, so with a brief tilt of his head, Derek started in with the explanation. "The first was a guy named Harris."
