The Eclipse 🐺

Chapter Six: Wild Wolves

My heart went out to Erica, and Derek finding her like this was going to break him. She didn't deserve to die, not like this. I went over to her body, and crouched down, my hand going over her eyes to close them. "Rest in peace," I state to her lifeless, drained of colour body, before I stood back up. 

I couldn't believe what happened to Erica, finding her like this was upsetting. Though I've seen many people die and live, it still gets me. I went back over to Allison who puts her ear to the door, to hear when fighting starts. It was clear on her expression that she was shaken, finding Erica's body. 

However, out of nowhere, we both could hear fighting and grunts, we look at one another before Allison unlocks the door and swings it open as we both rush out and follow the sound of the fighting. 

As we made our way through the hallway we came into a big room which had the vault door, which was opened. We rushed towards it, and we stopped in the vault door way, seeing Derek and Scott pressed against a wall. "Look out!" Allison shouts as Boyd and this other girl went for Derek and Scott. Boyd had grabbed hold of Scott and flung him into a wall, still clinging onto him before throwing him into the wall of mini vaults. 

"Stop them," Allison spoke quickly, panic laced in her voice. I look to Boyd who grabs Scott, I stare at him with intent, but he counited to attack Scott, my magic wasn't working. My gaze dropped from Boyd to the floor, to see mountain ash circled around in the vault. 

"The barrier, it's protecting them," I state, as I look back up to see Scott being impaled by Boyd's claws as he drags Scott up the wall. Blood came running down Scott's mouth as I smelt it from here, it was strong. Allison quickly gets on all fours ready to break the barrier. 

"No! Don't break the seal!" Derek yells over to us, as he didn't want them getting out, but if we didn't do anything Scott and Derek might die.

Allison shoots her head up to look at Scott, and she couldn't let him die. "Boyd!" She yells and she presses her hands down on the ash and parts it, breaking the barrier. Boyd and the girl, ran over to us, I pick up Allison quickly before she could get trampled on by the werewolves. I let go of Allison as Boyd and the girl run pass us, Boyd jumping over a small wall, they were quick and I had no time to stop them.

As I turn back around just in time to see Derek grab hold of Allison's arm and drag her into him like he was going hurt her. "Let her go Derek," I state strongly to him.

"What were you thinking?" Derek yells at her, clearly angry at the actions she took.

"That I had to do something," Allison replied quickly as she pulls away from Derek. 

"They saved our lives," Scott states as he looks worse for wear, his shirt bloody, his mouth also covered in blood, it looked like he just bit into someone's neck. 

"Yeah, and what do you think they're gonna do out there?" Derek yells over to Scott, before he whips his head around to face Allison. "Do you have any idea what we just set free?" His voice was raised and full of anger right now.

"You want to blame me?" Allison's voice raised. "Well, I am not the one turning teenagers into killers," she spoke as she walked a few steps away from Derek but her eyes didn't leave his face.

"No. No, that's just the rest of your family," Derek replied his voice calmed down but still held anger. 

"I've made mistakes," Allison spoke in a soft voice. "Gerard is not my fault,"

"And what about your mother?" Derek replied as I frowned, what did her mother got to do with this. 

"What do you mean?" Allison asked, clearly confused on what he was talking about. Derek turned his gaze to Scott. 

"Tell her, Scott," was Derek's only reply.

"What does he mean Scott?" Allison had asked, but Scott didn't look at her. This was the part were Derek and I leave to let them sort whatever happened between Scott and Allison's mother. 

"This way Derek," I state to him gently, as I began to walk about the storage closet where Erica's body was. I couldn't say anything along the way, my heart was beating and breaking at the same time. 

Once we arrived, I nodded to the door and he knew what was behind the door, as my expression gave him all he needed to know. As he went in, a tear slipped down my cheek as I close my eyes from a brief second, but when I reopened them he stood back outside, holding Erica in his hands. His expression gloomy and broke. 

"I'm so sorry Derek," I said softly to him, as his eyes met mine and saw the tear running down my face. Emotion is what makes us human... We walk quietly back to Scott and Allison, silence filled the air between us, as there wasn't much to say to one another to make this situation better. As we arrived, Scott and Allison finished speaking as they turned their gazes to us, look of sorrow for their fallen friend. 

I couldn't do anything, she's been dead too long by the look of her body, magic has limits as do any other supernatural creatures have. I was hoping that Boyd and who ever was in that vault with him, wouldn't hurt another person...

.....................................................................

We had all separated from the bank, Derek and Scott had gone after Boyd and now that he had told me, his younger sister Cora. Allison wasn't being a part of this as she was retired from the life, but I had a feeling that she wasn't over with helping. As for me, I was going to see if I could track them with my magic, but what they didn't know was that I was going to track them with my vampire senses.

My feet crunch under the damp leafs as I walk through the woods. They had been through here as I sniffed the cold air, so they couldn't be far off, but I could smell Scott or Derek so they must have began to search somewhere else. I traded carefully through the woods, the moon high in the sky. Finding Boyd and Cora was going to be hard, as they were stronger, faster because of not feeling the full moon for 3 moons. 

As I walked through the woods, I came to some trees that were plotted together, but I came to a halt as I sniffed the night air. But something felt different, like they were standing right next to me. I froze when I heard the low growls coming from behind, my breath hitched as I slowly began to turn. I see Boyd and Cora in their werewolf forms, staring at me like I was prey. 

"Good doggies," I state to them, but I think they thought I was mocking them. I snarl at me, their teeth razor sharp and ready to tare me limb from limb. On instinct, both of them charged at me, ready to kill me, but I shot out my hand, my palm flat, my fingers apart from each other, as they were both thrown back both hitting different trees, before hitting the dirt. I don't think I was strong enough for two rabid werewolves, but I would give it my all. 

They came to their feet fast, as they recovered quicker, they growl at me with full of anger. Their teeth large and ready to tare me to shreds. They both charged at the same time, and with that I dodged them in time, both of them missing me, it was like I was wind and moved gracefully in it. They stood now where I had stood, and I stood where they were. They both whipped their heads around to face me, confusion on their faces, but still snarled at me. 

"Please Boyd, Cora, I don't want to hurt you," I state the truth to them, as I didn't but I would if I had too. They didn't seem bothered about it with what I was saying, but something began to distract them, from me and before I knew it, they had ran off into the woods. I let out a sigh as that wasn't good, but I could track them. As I took a step forward, my phone buzzed, I quickly pulled it out from the back pocket from my jeans. 

I saw it was a message from the one and only Stiles...
