Family Matters

The kanima jumps onto the hood of the jeep. Both Stiles and lydia scream before getting out of the jeep. Lydia Runs in front of Jackson holding up a key saying his name. Freya looks to Derek next to her as jackson turns back into himself as he grabs the key. Derek looks to Freya as Jackson Backs away from Lydia Excepting his fate. Freya sadly nods not really wanting to watch Lydia go through that all.

Derek's eyes turn red as he runs to Jackson stabbing him in the chest. Peter finally runs forward and stabs him in the back. Freya closes her eyes and hugs her brother as the two lift him off the ground a few feet before pulling their claws out. Derek walks back over to Freya. He waist no time pulling her from Logans grasp into his own arms squeezing her tight burying his head in her hair. She lets a few silent tears out as she squeezes him back just as tight her head in the crook of his neck.

A few moths ago If you would have asked Derek if he would feel any remorse in killing the Kanima he would have said no. If you asked him that right now as Freya cried in his arms he'd tell you yes because if he was in Lydias shoes right now holding on to a dead Freya he'd be absolutely heart broken. Even if he couldn't admit it Freya seemed to Be his go to no matter what.

Nobody knew if they should watch Derek grip Freya as if his life depended on it or if they should watch Lydia and Jackson have their last moments together. They seemed to Look between them both. As Lydia pulled away from Jackson's dead body. And started to walk towards them. Stiles when to comfort her but he stopped actually everyone stopped. Derek let go of Freya the two turning around as they heard claws on pavements. Freya gripped his hand they all watched jackson slowly standing up with blue eyes before he howled. Freya let her mouth hang wide open in shock as Lydia ran to jackson. Hugging him tight ; It worked he was a werewolf now. Stiles walked over to his jeep rubbing it as Freya sighed.

"Where did Gerard go?" Allison asked causing everyone to Look around.

"He can't be that far" Chris sighed freya groand slowly letting go of Dereks hand.

"As sweet as this moment is Jackson put on some clothes" everyone let a breath out realizing it was over.

Freya sat on the edge of the banister her legs dangling over the 8 stories. She knew she wouldn't fall her magic was helping her balance. It had been a week since Jackson had been turned back into a were wolf. Freya was going back to school catching up on her work seeings as there was only a week of school left and somehow she was still passing.

"Why do you look like you're about to jump?" She turned her head to see Isaac she smiled at him.

"I haven't decided yet" she chuckled. Isaac let out a small laugh standing next to her. He hadn't really seen her much he had been busy helping Derek try to find Boyd and Erica plus she was working on graduating.

"You okay?" He asked glancing at her as she stared at her dangling feet she sighed and shrugged.

"Wanna talk about it?" He ask Freya glanced at him and gave a tight lip smile.

"I'm just trying to wrap my mind around everything that's happened the past couple months" Isaac nodded and sighed leaning on the banister with his arms crossed.

"I'm just happy I have an actually Family to be honest. You and Logan are great people and I'm happy to have you two" Isaac Said a small smile on his face Freya glanced at him as he picked at his nails.

"Yeah Logan's basically a giant child" she chuckles causing Isaac to laugh too.

"First I resent that" they both turn to see Logan leaned against the slidding door a goofy grin spread across his face. Freya and Isaac share a raised Eyebrow at him as he kicks off the wall standing on the other side of her.

"Second are we having a family meeting with out me?" He laughed freya rolled her eyes.

"Of course not" Freya said sarcastically looking at him.

"We would never" Isaac sarcastically adds causing the three to laugh. Logan rolls his eyes reaching over Freya to shove Isaac a bit.

"So after schools over for the summer we should get away, we can go visit my people to help us all learnnew stuff" Logan says happily wanting the two to get away from Beacon hills for a bit.

"I can't I have to help Derek find Boyd and Erica but you two should go I know you want to learn more Freya" Isaac sighs looking out to the town.

"Yeah but You're our family I don't wanna leave you" Freya says looking down at Isaac. He just smiles at her and shakes his head.

"I'll be fine Frey and besides after everything thats happened between you and Derek I think it'd be good if you two had some time apart" he said turning around leaning his back to the railing. Freya sighed as Logan looked between the two he realized then with the look on her face no matter what she said she was in love with Derek Hale.

"Okay but call me if anything, and I mean anything happens okay?"

"Yes ma'am" Isaac saluted his hand. Freya gave him a serious look and he sighed. "Freya it will be fine I promise I'll call you if need be" Freya sighed jumping off of the banister and hugging Isaac. Logan awes and joins them squishing Freya in the middle of two Giants.

"I love you guys I'm glad you're my family" Isaac sighs in the hug.

"We love you too Isaac" Freya sighs.
