Chapter 04: How Will I Know?

The fighting continued until Deucalion arrived and put a stop to it, he had once tried to convince Elizabeth to join him when he discovered what she was. Deucalion hadn't remembered what had happened close to twenty years earlier. Elizabeth simply smiled at him, and he at her trying to intimidate her before Elizabeth simply caused the lights to flicker. Cora looked at Elizabeth from where she was lying on the floor before Deucalion called Kali and the twins away. As Deucalion, Kali, Ethan and Aiden left Scott and Isaac turned up followed closely by Allison, Stiles and Lydia.

"Aunt Elizabeth, what was that?" Scott looked at his Aunt and then shook his head trying to get the sound out of his head.

"You heard what I wanted you to hear," was all Elizabeth answered, before she looked at Cora who was back on her feet. "Derek?"

"Seriously, what was that sound?" Scott questioned again, this time Allison, Stiles, Isaac and Lydia all turned to face her.

"That was the sound that I hear every time something happens to him," Elizabeth said as she rushed to Derek again, it was an automatic reflex he may have been born a werewolf though Elizabeth felt that what they had just done was failing slightly. "What I sent to you was almost an SOS sound, low enough that you and Isaac could hear it...but that doesn't explain your friends turning up,"

"Lydia's sort of beacon, she hears things," Stiles explained, pausing for a second realising that he didn't know why he had turned up at the loft. "Why am I here?"

"You turn up where-ever Scott does," Isaac said it was the most that he had worked out.

"Wait you have an Aunt?" Lydia and Allison looked between Scott and Elizabeth before Lydia noted how close the older lady was towards Derek.

"Everyone has an aunt, mine well mine just happens to be supernatural," Scott muttered, as Elizabeth took hold of Derek's hand and straightened him up.

"Derek, breathe," she whispered standing beside him and pressing her fingers into his back. "You need to breathe,"

Allison looked at Elizabeth and realised that she had seen the woman before,a long time ago. Allison walked over to her with a questioning look on her face before she stepped away from her. Lydia looked at Elizabeth and then Scott again.

"Elizabeth,I'll be fine," Derek hissed at her, that didn't stop her from pressing her fingers into his back.

"Yeah, no remember I can feel some of what you do," Elizabeth told him,pressing again this time letting a little magic spark to ignite the healing.

"Wait, you're his tether?" Allison questioned, it was the only way that she could think of to call her.

"Something like that, I'm a werewolf and a witch...it's rare," Elizabeth told her, Elizabeth smiled at her before she removed her hands from Derek who yet again grabbed one of hers. "Told you,"
