(Next day)

I slid into my slacks. I scrambled through my drawer to find myself a good shirt to wear. After almost giving up, I found myself a nice white long sleeve button down shirt. Wearing it, I walked over towards the mirror in my room to see how I looked.

If this were any other day, I would have spent this second admiring my good sexy looks. Except it isn't any other day, today was my friend's funeral, Isaac Lahey. I sighed and turned around to grab my coat before walking out the door.

"Honey, grab my purse for me will you? " Mum told me as I got down the staircase.

" Yeah sure, Where is it? " I asked.

" It's in the living room on the table "  She replied before walking towards me to take it as I gave it to her. " Thanks "

" Are you ready? " I asked. Mum was wearing a long black dress which down to just below her knees and was holding a her handbag.

" Yeah I'm ready " She said.

I went to open the door. After opening it, I was knocked on my forehead. It was as if someone was knocking on a door but instead of a door, someone knocked me.

" Ouchhh " I said.

" Oh sorry Scott "I looked over to see Stiles standing outside the door. He was wearing the same clothes as I was, except he had a tie hanging on the collar of his shirt.

"Hey, you're just on time" I said. I turned around to look for my mum. "Hey mum, Stiles is here. I'll be going with Stiles alright?"  I asked mum.

"Yeah alright, drive safely! "Mum yelled from the back.

" Yeah alright, I'll see you there "I yelled back as I shut the door and headed for Stiles's blue jeep. We got into the Jeep. Stiles started the car and we took off to the funeral. Stiles filled me in on what happened yesterday in Derek's house after He dropped me and Allison home. He told me about the Alpha coming to help him to get Derek out of his head. He never mentioned the alpha's name though.

Not many people were there at the funeral. It was being held at the cemetery. They were all standing in front of Isaac's tombstone. Standing in the front row, was My pack and the sheriff. Jackson was too together with Lydia and Allison. Even Isaac's dad was there.

Never really seen much of him since I got to know Isaac. Almost his entire family died in that bonfire a few months ago. Only Isaac and his dad survived until now. Ever since then, his dad became an uncontrollable alcoholic. Sure, I've been to his new house which was near my school. But I only saw him once or twice.

The three of us joined them as soon as we got down from the car. I went over to stand next to Erica and Cora while Stiles went to stand next to Lydia and Jackson. I looked around and saw Allison together with Lydia and Jackson as well. She glanced and gave me a weak smile as I did the same. I turned and saw something black flash across the church rooftop which was right outside the cemetary. A second later, it was gone. It must have been a sunlight effect or something. 

I ignored it and tuned my attention to Isaac's coffin which laid on the grass next to his gravestone. The two men in front of the gravestone were busy digging up the ground to bury Isaac's corpse inside.

After they were done digging the ground. They carried Isaac's coffin on both ends and placed it gently inside the hole they digged up. After placing it inside the ground, they began to use the shovel to cover up the coffin.

****************************************

The drive back to Derek's house was awfully quiet. Erica, Boyd, and myself were sitting quietly in Stiles's jeep. Derek was driving his black Chevrolet Camaro right in front of us together with Cora.

Stiles drove into the side of Derek's old burnt house and we all got down. Derek lead the way into his porch and stopped just after touching the doorknob to open it. Derek parked a few feet away from his porch.

" Derek? What's wrong? Cora asked him with a tint of worry in her voice.

He began sniffing around, "There's someone here with us"

Hey turned around and looked passed us. We all followed his gaze into the woods and saw nothing but trees and dead brown leaves lying on the ground.

"Derek, I don't see-"

In a blink of an eye, Derek disappeared and stood just behind a bush not far from us. He reached his hand down and threw someone up high in the air. They guy landed on the other side of the black Camaro with a loud thump. It was Jackson.

As Soon as Jackson got up, Derek raced and pushed him hard back into the ground again. Jackson skidded and stopped using his claws against the ground. Derek,fully transformed, began attacking ferociously at Jackson who was barely avoiding and defending himself. Derek's speed was clearly too much for him to handle for too long.

I tried running towards him but felt a hand against my chest. I looked at Boyd in confusion as he shook his head.

"You'll die if you try to stop him while he's out of control" He said in a low voice. I stared at him blankly.

"So you want me to leave Jackson there with no help at all?! " I raised my hands up in protest.

" It's won't make a difference, you'll both die if you try to interfere " Erica said, staring at them fighting. I shook my head in surprise. These guys are actually scared of Derek's power. I knew that Derek would be angry at Isaac's sudden death, heck we're all really angry about it. But Derek's rage right now as I'm seeing it went beyond my imagination.

A second later, a sound that sounded like a car crash pierced through the air. Grabbing my attention immediately, oI stared at the half damaged black Camaro that now stood in front of the house. The roof and doors on the left side of the car was fell inwards. Windows shattered to the ground. Lying on the ground next to the car was Derek.

All of us stared blankly as the scene unfolded. Jackson was standing victoriously while Derek laid on the ground like he was defeated. But I was wrong. All the claw marks and wounds on Jackson's face and chest was clear now. Though they already started healing.

Derek immediately got up. This time, he seemed to have calmed down a little bit.

" Who are you? He asked, Eyes still on Jackson.

"My name is Jackson, Jackson Whitemore " Jackson said.

" Okay? So what do you want? "Derek nearly growled.

Jackson shrugged and walked closer to Derek." But you may know me as Jake, Jake Hale from a long time ago "
